I'm starting to think that Sanraku is a masochist, or rather, he's treading the line between sanity and enjoying the pleasure of displeasure. To think he tried a gore game that will make you feel 100% real pain and missed it because it's offline had me thinking. Also, his friend is really going the long way to persuade Sanraku to become a pro. That's insane. And I love it.
I keep re-reading, and I must say Jaek is a very consistent asshole. The only time there's a change in his behavior is when he is jealous and drunk. Poor Dan really caught feelings for him after he took care of his grandma's bill, saved him, and then later had him stay at his house. (Jaek has ulterior motives, though, and MC, who has low self-esteem after being subjected to poverty, feels in debt.)
I've been watching crime documentaries lately, and it made me recall Jaek. It says that there's a person like Jaek who treats their partners as their property, which is called antisocial personality disorder.
It makes me think that he needs a mental psychiatrist in addition to a new physical therapist.
Can't wait for season 2. Also, I hope they tell us more about Dan's biological parents. Are they deceased? Did they leave him behind? Or was he lost when he was just a child, and no one looked for him? We badly need the backstory and why Jaek is a jerk (that this guy has a dual personality too, he changes when he's drunk).
That's wholesome and awesome, and all, but do grace us with Kalego sensei's presence.
