I get what you mean. I’m adopted and my family is my family - blood or not. Relationships between adopted siblings is still incest, and it’s wrong. What really gets under my skin are the novels where adopted children pursue their adoptive parent. That’s just messed up.
Oh yeah, there's a Manhwa like that. I had a hard pass
I don't know what's up with anime, but having a brother and sister fall in love with each other is so icky. I don't care if the girl is adopted, it's it's wrong and I'm so glad the author called that out. Like the guy was like, "...dad you can't adopt this girl because she's my girlfriend and also I can't date my adopted sister!" Even in this magical world, there is a limit. A brother and an adopted sister ending up smashing is all kinds of wrong to me and I'm so glad they didn't go that route. Of course the girl is hurt because she's clueless and of course the dad is derp because he's clueless. The only one that makes sense is his son.
