It’s because only Raga fans baby Xinlu so much that they won’t accept it . I like Xinlu , the red flag Xinlu he is , i won’t go make a whole new character in my head to be able to like him like other people .
Even i have seen people who have read the novel say “Yuri liked it so it was not SA” . Their whole first time in the novel is narrated with Yuri going in and out of consciousness
Well Passion (all 4 couple) explore different toxic dynamics and in a way all of them are like toxic soulmates .
Raga is a short novel , only 2 volumes , and explores Xinlus healing journey . They don’t seem as toxic as Tae and Ilay because Yuris and Xinlus relationship explore another type of dynamic .
I apologized, i only presumed it as dubcon since yuri was drunk but yes, it's true that it was still SA at the end of the day (with absolutely no aftercare at that)
-Minor Spoilers-!!
Tbh i like this passion series a lot more than the others cuz of the pathetic wife chasing from the trashy red flag seme this time. Xinlu was super terrible towards yuri during these arcs. I like xinlu and his chr development that comes later on but it's still just sooo satisfying to see him grovel and beg yuri to not leave him, honestly it's the top reason that made me start reading the novel to see the regret
I only see them as non toxic cuz of how much their relationship has changed later on and that they actually know how to communicate their feelings properly(especially from yuri, i love him), try to understand the way the other love and with xinlu becoming more mature towards the end. Their relationship grows healthier and i liked to see it, at least compared to ilay and taeui
YES, i hate it when the abusive/toxic ml who has been horrible to the mc for like 70% of the entire series and they only show their regret part for a short time or it's shown but not executed well/feels rushed and incomplete. But don't worry, the regret arc in this is very satisfying. I love the way bro made a 180 degree turn in his feelings towards yuri

Hello! New reader here. Is the mc and ml's relationship toxic? Is there SA? I just wanna know before I start reading it (ϋ)/♩
