Banger take, but i think both opinions can hold true. There are times when its just randomly and unnecessarily added in like when everyone kinda just moves on and forgets about the sexual assaulter mob after a few pages

Yes I said that. That sometimes it's unnecessary and other times it adds to the story. It all trickles down to context and personal interpretation of why it was added

yea and in this case its clear it was only used as a plot device to push conflict between the main characters. it could have been done in a way better way instead of one that unnecessarily desensitizes rape.

also the more i read ur og comment the stupider it is…? first off if it was to show the status of omegas in the story the story would have pushed that narrative but naganuki, the mc, is seemingly unaffected by being literally raped and assaulted. the end of the 4th chapter is the introduction of conflict between the two mcs DUE TO the rape. which was, as i said before unnecessary and doesnt even begin to represent irl victims. “most women dont get justice irl either” kinda off topic but i wanna point its not just women that r victims!

Oooo let's calm down its never that serious. How the author chooses to show status is up to them and the MC being attacked immediately after getting found out is to show the gravity of his situation, also its not an extended story so the ML being his hero "fixes" that. Think batman and any joker victim. You want a well developed story that explores that then you're not in the right area, and this isn't meant to represent victims in any degree bc it's fiction you're not suppose to be learning or looking for legit representation in fiction. Ooo really not only women??? Obviously bro but a lot of people have compared omega discrimination to how women get treated, but that doesn't mean others don't matter. My comment was stupid to you and yet you think this story is desensitizing rape....yeah fuck out of here.

In my opinion, r*pe shouldn't be put in a fluffy and sweet romance story. And based on what I read, this is a fluffy romance story.

If authorsan wanted to show how unfair omegas are treated, there a gazillions ways to show it. ex. not being allowed to play sports because they are perceived as weak, not being taken seriously on their academic pursuits, being isolated because they're seen as a nuisance because of their weak constitution and their heats, etc.

They can also use these examples to move the story forward and make the alpha the hero, if the story trope is "alpha saves the omega" kind.

Also, just to clarify why a lot of comments are about it, it's because this is supposedly a fluffy romance story so it shouldn't have been in the story. It added no value whatsoever.

Again how an author chooses to write is up to them, and there are trigger warning to make you turn back if you don't agree, and this is not a fluffy romance. This story starts off super tense with him finding out he's an omega and some dude is now following him around reminding him constantly that shit is different now. He hasn't even said he's an omega so these tropes wouldn't work, and then the worst people find out and the worst happens. So the ones that started reading with expectations have nobody to blame but themselves. Stories aren't meant to do anything or cater to anyone so let's keep in mind the trigger warnings and turn back in time to save energy on commenting about how or why you don't agree with how an author wrote something, bc you not finishing it is enough of an explanation.

I do fully understand what you mean and I agree to some extent. It is the writer's story so it is their right to do whatever they want to do with it.

But making their work available for others to read also opens their work to criticisms and critique. Heck even biased opinions and unwanted reactions. And we are all entitled to it. It is one's right to react badly on a certain scene they don't agree with and express it however they want. (tho making hurtful comments and personally attacking others just because we differ in opinion is a no go for me)

I also know that trigger warnings are there for a reason. But, wouldn't it be a shame for the story and the effort the author put in writing the story, especially if its like this which is a good romance story, be not read just because there is a r scene in it? Not that I paid to read this. So me reading this basically serves no added value to the author. And I did read through the story and enjoyed it with the exception of the r scene.

Anyway, I'm just stating my view and that is, this story would have been better without the r scene.

Cool we aren't their target audience though bc I'm sure this is fan translation so whether we read it or not they don't care. And even If we were and someone chooses not to read, no one especially the author who wrote that knowing people wouldn't like it, will actually care. I've seen criticism and good takes about stories but having to see "eww rape bad" 20 times over and nothing else is annoying hence my first comment. Comment section is a free world or whatever so I'll just get use to seeing people state the obvious and nothing else

Fair point.

agree, from time and time again if that scene is taken out of the story and it did nothing or change the timeline of the story then it isn't relevant and was just used for shock factor
