Why does an android, created to care for children, have a functioning dick and able to feel pleasure? Let alone feel okay with sexual acts with said children? This is one of my main issues with futuristic plots and how people are trying to make robots as human as possible. It’s not a human! How could anyone think being raised by a very human like android would be good idea without massive amounts of therapy? In the end it was all about dominance and owning Ivan. Very sloppy plot, not well thought out.
You know when you hear about your friend in high schools 25 year old bf and your first reaction isn’t. ‘ oh hey! A pedophile!’ It’s usually ‘ oh wow! She has an adult bf, so cool.’ This manga is an embodiment of that to me. I liked it a lot as a teen, but now that I’m older…. Junta’s a f*cking rapist. Your bf got r*ped so you r*pe him back?! It’s just….. I like yandere stuff but I’m getting so picky about it.
I just love when stories are like: ‘slavery is fine, because these slaves are happy!’ It’s a lazy story telling trope to dance around creating real relationships between characters. And bolster the main character as a ‘good person’ because they treat their slaves well. This person follows you because you own them. And the fact you showed them basic human kindness is not a reason for loyalty. I can see it now, the slaves she buys will eventually pay off their debts and then choose to stay with her on their own accord!
It is at least positive enough that she's taking advantage of it. Even back when slavery was legal and considered socially accepted there were *still* abolitionists who refused to use slave labor. The fact that she *might* be uncomfortable with it does NOT change the fact that she's benefiting from it.
She takes interest in people who may be useful to her. it doesn't matter to her if that person is a girl lost in the street, a burglar, a man with no manners, an old geezer who lost his job, a sick girl, a slave or even a former enemy.
She takes interest in Luins' business for that reason, since his way of doing business is not far from what we see in our own world with the unemployement system (that could be a step in that direction btw, since it's noticed to be innovative... why slaves would be the only person who would benefit from a system like that and not people who lost their work ?).
I don’t understand why they couldn’t just kill the doctor? Like he couldn’t just remotely kill the guides right? He would have to prompt them to commit suicide, so he would have to talk to them. So…. Just gather all his patients and tell them “hey this guy was crazy and manipulative, don’t listen to him!” Like wtf is this threat?
The weird disconnect between the MC backstory and the reason he is scared of the ML and runs away is lacking in so many ways. With the crazy mark on his chest I originally suspected the MC was a runaway darkness guild guide that was sheltered to the point of naivety. But no, he’s just stupid and gullible. I wanted him to have some sneaky reason to stick with the guild and maybe use them in turn but NO, he’s just stupid and gullible. I’m hearing a lot of praise for the novel, I bet it fixes these issues but it felt so rushed in the end
