I thought i understood what the message was in this, but now i'm kind of lost. Did ayano lose her longing for love and become a materialistic sex freak after changing into a small girl?
The main body & soul is already obsessed with sex, and now that she got a whole new body she also inherited the obsession... but for different reasons. The main 25 years old body wants sex as it was idealized with confidence and masculinity (in his eyes), but the girl part of him denied that idealism, and to fill the hole, she puts sex as sex with no feelings attached, just to deny her past mistakes...I thought i understood what the message was in this, but now i'm kind of lost.

I don't disagree with what you're saying, his big failure is letting one misfortune drag down his whole life (and try to bring down others). Deserved a beating for that certainly.No, she just stopped idealizing sex and realized it's not going to fix the deeper issues, and she's right. You can want sex and acknowledge that it's not the end all be all of your existence. Which, yeah, is a healthy outlook.

What I don't like that in the manga the response to the incel is that sex as an expression of love doesn't exist and/or doesn't matter.
I mean, i love my parents and i could pay a prostitute for sex but the sum of that isn't equivalent to having a girlfriend.
It's like we're on the other end of idealising sex. Which would be 'trivialising' i guess. That's why i called it materialistic
I don't know that that's the case, it feels like a very self-contained story based around one character's singular arc, and all their other works have been short too. I mean maybe it was cancelled, but I think it was intended to be brief from the start. Not every series benefits from being dragged out.Ok I finally got to see the chap.
Man I wish this was allowed to go on for longer, cause the author clearly was prepping something good here, but now they have to rush to the end.
