She was in the hospital, having nearly died and having lost her 7 month baby. He wouldn't go and see her because he couldn't show her any weakness. I'm sorry to be so critical, but this dude is several members short of a quorum. A person would have to be hard-wired this way in order to be so divorced from normal human emotion.
To those who absolutely hate this because it isn't 24 and 7 mayhem and murder, or the dramatic and tender love story (a la Manon Lascaut) to end them all - just go on to something else. The whole point of this manga is to be hilarious, silly, ecchi fluff. It definitely succeeds at that. It's broad comedy, and you're supposed to read it for the laughs.
On re-reading this I noticed something. No matter how much of a flirt and how enticing Rosa was as a teenager what Sophia's brother did is called rape. What Leo did, then and later, was to blame her for it. Another point I noticed when Leo was getting all horndog and still thought the FL was his first cousin: the family is traditional Italian and therefore almost certainly Catholic. The Catholic Church does not condone cousin marriage and regards sex between cousins as incest.
I've never understood this trope about men sharing relationship details with their buds. "I only married her because she's pregnant." Okay, Butthead, it may have slipped past your pitiful little brain, but you just betrayed your wife. I have had disagreements and misunderstandings with my wife, but I never even told my father, mother, or sister, to say nothing of some pal. It's as though all these "high class" types the authors write about have all the couth, loyalty, and delicacy of a drug dealer living in an abandoned mobil home. I guess that the spirit behind, "Never kiss and tell" is long gone from our society these days. What's next, something like, "Hey Bro, let me show you the nude sneak pictures I took of my wife."
The very nadir of Harlequin style "romance," with all the ML's going past mere stereotypes into total cliches of toxically chauvinistic, misogynistic, and entitled playboys who believe they have the absolute right to have sex with any woman who catches their fancy. Basically caricatures of those for whom date rape is a way of life.











It is kind of sad. To be fair, though, I had several years worth of comments a while back, and when the system had that big upgrade, all my pages of wit and wisdom disappeared, the same with the old batoto, one manga, and any manga. It was something of a buzz kill!
As to The Story of the Fox Who Was Late Getting Married and Came to be My Bride, I'm an avid reader of same. I really like the characters, the humor, and the story. The author does a great job and I really enjoy each update.
