I read this manga well before it was adapted into an anime, and I personally dropped it due to the teacher-student relationship. If it was just a depiction of the student being in love/admires the teacher, it would've been fine. But! The fact that the teacher does NOT maintain a proper teacher-student distance that made me feel very uncomfortable, thus me dropping the manga. I understand that YAOI has had and still shows various tropes and many are IRL illegal and immoral. As a long time fujoshi, who was reading BL since I a freaking child, I think that it's quite refreshing that readers and authors are moving past these dangerous tropes or calling them out for how damaging it can actually be. Remember everyone, just because it's not real doesn't mean that it's any less damaging. Though, I do not condone people threatening or sending death threats when there's an opportunity to learn and be better.

I was watching Silent Witch and I was so excited by the great portrayal of friendship between girls, topics of trauma, social anxiety, depression. I was enjoying it quite a lot then BAM. PEDO JOKE. You're telling me, a grown ass woman makes sure her servants are all YOUNG BOYS (THEY LITERALLY LOOK YOUNGER THAN THE 16YO MC) and expressed interest to kiss the cheek of a grown man (27) only if he were 12 years younger. HOW DOES THIS ADD TO THE PLOT????? FRICK THE FRACK OFF!! GO TO JAIL LADY!
