well technically it cant be considered a yaoi cuz at that time idt rogers existed as he does now but yea it is an implied doomed yaoi
It's not yaoi because rogers looks exactly as the ancestor and he didn't love him or had sexual feelings for the person, more like a possesive way, and he saw him as a toy, his favorite one. Rogers was pure evil.
I graduated and in my Job hunting era now ╥﹏╥
