Sorry, guys! During system maintenance, some functions like comment are unavailable.

Not to hate, and I would like to discuss opinions.

To tell you the truth, I didn't notice that the art changed, maybe because i just read the new chapters and never reread. The story, however, I feel that the story has dragged on too much in certain areas but lacks in others. For example, I think it has dragged on long enough about the different soul ranks and showing how strong the ML is, but it lacks in developing the conflict about the ranks and in truly showing how strong the ML is. It has gone into the told (everyone speaks about the ranks), but the showing, in my opinion, has gone into a direction that has become a little repetitive. I was expecting him to show the school what he believed in but also for the other guys at the bank to show up again and for us to see how strong the ML is compared to those guys. As for the romance for me, it doesn't exist in this story since he is not even interested, it does seem like they will force it a bit when he suddenly wakes up and realizes he loves her, after such a long road denial.

Maybe I was expecting his point of view to change a little because those ranks are about fighting for your life in a serious situation, and sometimes what you can do in a real fight changes from an ideology to realism. In the bank, he could take care of everyone because he is strong, and his real rank is an S, not because he worked hard (otherwise, the girl could have taken care of them).

This is wrong on so many levels. The ML imprisoned the MC, r@pes him, impregnated him against his will, and then HE decides to terminate. The author doesn't make an ark of redemption, in my humble opinion, enough for what the ML does. If I hadn't read the story from the beginning, I would say this was Stockholm Syndrome.

The MC does not realize that even if he goes back, the ML will do the same things because he never met a limit (ML never thought "ok this is not somethingi would do to someone I love", it just kept getting worse). And now the MC had to escape with nowhere to go because his family won't accept him back. They used him as a tool to get notoriety and fame and a good marriage. In their eyes, they can't marry him off, and well, right now, he can't do martial arts, so they are more capable of killing him than letting him live.
And (some people will kill me for this, but...) I really don't like the idea of "it will somehow turn alright" about the pregnancy, I want a miracle or a hidden doctor or a relative that would say "if something happened then I would or could take care of the kid". Especially when the father of the baby wants to kill the baby, his family won't want to keep the baby (and will probably like to kill the baby since it would bring shame) and his sister wont be able to do much since their dad is an @sshole and controls everyone.

I think that everyone is not wrong but not right either, hear me out. The problem with relationships, especially in stories like this, is that they don't really develop in a healthy manner in the way that there is no communication, anywhere.

If Minato is not secured in his relationship because of his past he should talk it out in therapy , because if it isn't resolved then it will be dragged on or it will pop up (so to say) in the future (but I don't know whether in their culture therapy is considered as an everyday thing, so to speak). That said, taking time off in a relationship and saying "I need space or time to resolve this " is valid and encouraged (depending on the person or situation) because sometimes if it is fixed in the moment it can backfire, and hurtful things can be said. That said, do talk to your partners after you thought it through. Don't leave it in the air, even if you think it sounds silly. It's better to try than not at all. Plus, partners are not mind readers, no matter how much we may want them to be, and they can't adjust (or not) to what we say if we don't speak. Yes, they talked about it once, but sometimes people can't see from your perspective, and they need to know how a certain problem relates in some way so that they can adjust. If he isn't secured by verbal assurance then he should also say "it has to do with my insecurities, but verbal assurance is not enough for me right now, and really I don't know what would be" (and it's also valid not to know, but it is fair to your partner to think about how to resolve that). However, I believe it is also Minato's first relationship, so he doesn't really know what to do either, and no one is really giving him sound advice (like, "Have you talked it out? If you haven't it will get stuck and it won't really advance, even if it sounds silly talk about it, better for you to be clear than for there to be problems later on, or for Shizuma to be wondering what he did wrong without you really telling him, and then resolving it") so they are stuck with doing the same thing over and over.

Shizuma is young, he doesn't know how to do boundaries, it's his first job and he basically blames himself for what happens in a relationship. The problem is that he has no one to talk to, and so he has no one to tell him, "This is wrong." For example he blames himself for Yuka, but since he doesn't have anyone to talk to, no one can tell him "it's not your fault you where cheated on, don't take the blame". Yes, the boss is breaking boundaries with Shizuma, but since Shizuma is trying too hard and it's his first job, he doesn't know how to make boundaries without fear or insecurities. (His boss Onodera should know not to play with someone's underwear period, and to treat the two interns equally, especially since he has been in a workplace longer than Shizuma, and I don't believe this are the first interns they have in the clinic). Plus culture can also be a big factor to things in a workplace. Shizuma needs help with creating healthy boundaries, and for someone to tell him "this is a boundary you need" (I know Minato has talked to him before, but he may believe that it stems from his past and it's not really necessary because everyone around them semms ok woth it). I do see a problem with not one of his friends telling him or asking him if HE or Minato is ok with being with Yuka. Instead, they all go out like its nothing.

Guys, you can set boundaries and put limits in your workplace. His boss -Onodera- is being unfair to both of them (I don't remember other guys name); first you can't use a worker to "help you communicate with clients", or take him everywhere because he understands you better, and then not take the other student under your wing too. This can set an unbalanced relationship in the work place, and it can create rumors. Just like it happened with his friend, his friend knows Shizuma, but still couldn't help himself from imagining things.

Now, Shizuma is a person who has problems setting boundaries, and everyone confuses that with being nice. There should be boundaries with your boss and your ex-girlfriend, especially when they are damaging your current relationships. And even more if you know that if you don't put those boundaries and limits, those relationships (with boss and ex-girlfriend) could evolve into something you don't want, and they can say or do things that are damaging to your relationship. He is young, but he has to learn sooner or later. Your ex-girlfriend cant put a tracker on your phone and still tell you that they like you and stick to you in front of your boyfriend. And no, your boss can't grab your underwear and keep it in his coat; it doesn't matter if you are a man or a woman.

Minato is right in taking his space, especially if he is uncomfortable or processing his thoughts. People don't always say they are jealous because they may believe they are in the wrong, they are imagining things, or they are possessive. It's alright, he is going through a process of change.
