In subverses it seems that harassers get off too easy most of the time.. I don't get it either.
I wonder what they bring for the new season as I think their story has kind of already come to an end. Id rather know about the shop owner and our spicy switch!
But he didn’t quit his job. They added a new beginner category just for Seiya and he just doesn’t do certain things, which gives him more free time to do what he wants i.e learning more about management like he said
Yeah, I know he didn't, I'm more so talking in relation to discussions happening in the comments about if he should've quit or not.
Honestly, it's not even just subverse, it's a very common thing for an antagonist who's persuing the MC and making the ml jealous to keep being present even after they've "given up", even if they harassed, assaulted, etc the MC or even the ML :/
Harassers getting forgiven/slap on the wrist is usually just because of the cultural need for social harmony. It’s unfortunately not just in subverses but a lot of works, and irl as well.
Anw i really do agree on the balance part… it’s unfortunate that exclusivity is just one-way
Complicated feelings about this one. I don't think you should have to quit your job to appease your partner (and that's controversial but if your job is a deal breaker for your partner, you just aren't a good match and that's okay) but the ML is very possessive over the MC and he gets to have control of him in their relationship (which of course is the point of domsub verse) but not the other way around? I dunno, I know they're fine with that but it feels like an unfair balance and the harrasser being so easily forgiven in a plot is so overdone and I'm so over being forgiving of the antagonist because he "seems nice". He literally harrassed the MC, I don't care how nice or bare minimum he was.
