read this ages ago, decided to refresh my memory. and oh, boy... what a mess. not even 30 chapters and we had multiple instances of sexual harassment and assault. chapter 21 is crazy! "I'm not gonna rape you" and proceeds to rape him. probably because they are guided by an old (an incorrect) notion that sexual abuse is exclusively forced and violent penile-vaginal or anal intercourse; while, in reality, it's any form of sexual contact without truthful and unwavering consent. and all sexual abuse here is fetichise or simply reduce to plot device to try making some of the characters have more dimension; no responsibility or real artistic use of it. it's always this type of trash that gets attention and other media adaptations... wth.
