Yeah no, the life's shitty enough for me to read how japanese authors romanticize abusive relationships.
You're being deliberately obtuse and you know it. Most of the people like noncon just fine. But there's a difference between tasteful or meaningful moments of intense tension... and rape after rape after humiliation after degredation, with nothing to show for it at the end. It's miserable to read. I get that you want to feel like everyone is too woke, or too sensitive, but man. It's just not a good time lol. And it's okay if other people find something that has zero emotional release frustrating and unsatisfying. Tension is only good when there is relief. In musical terms, dissonance must have resolution to be sonically pleasing. You can sit on your high horse all you want, but it doesn't make you right or your opinion worth more than anyone else's.
nobody said anything about moral superiority, people read what they like, what seems unrealistic for you and realistic for someone else. especially in a two volume manga where development is short as it is, relationships arent linear. not all endings are supposed to satisfy you especially with a bl manga that starts with rape and then revenge rape, the basis of their relationship was already terrible which is why it got worse and than it marginally got "better" for its standards at the end.. what i mean to say is it seems trivial to complain about rape or abuse in a manga thats literally built upon both of those subjects in a way that doesnt have a morally satisfying arc or conclusion. rape is more about domination and humiliation than sexual gratification, which is why the ML rapes the MC in revenge and then proceeds to also dominate and humiliate him in his workplace as well.
i meant to add that it seems purposeful by the author that it was written this way, you can take it as romanticization plenty of BL is like this. the entire manga is about subverting the original attacker and the attacked dynamic the characters have at the start. about the victim attempting to "reclaim" their autonomy and subsequent rejection but ultimately still not being satisfied. ive never read a manga like it and i PERSONALLY thought it was interesting, regardless if i thought it was healthy or touched on such a complex conversations correctly, so i find it annoying when people sum experimental bl or manga in general like this as just "japanese authors romanticize abusive relationships."
