The whole story is a love affair and now you're asking if its going NTR route? Wait, whats the difference exactly?
Or you saying its fine when the male cheats on his lover but if the woman does it, its NTR and unacceptable?
wtf?
Anyway, in 108 - Kaorin was told she'd be at the audition, which meant she got to pick the lead actress. Which meant she chose Yoshioka.
Since its the first Director's role in AV, i doubt he even knows her. This is Kaorin's doing, which may indicate it is a twisted, possibly unconscious form of revenge
The leadup to this entire story was her trying to come to terms with what she went through.
The symbollism of Kaorin's first approved project being NTR. And its essentially a telling of her own story and her pain.
The pacing of the project and the twist of going into ero in the first place, and the convenient framing of Yoshioka's career pathing
The secret relationship Yoshioka and Takeru is having despite her status, and his uncertainty and overall shame-baiting about trying to be a "worthy" man before committing to anything
its all to convenient
It probably won't be a full blown NTR. but the plot is most certainly going to be a twist of fate. With a lot of pain and regret
Also, judging from the title of the AV itself... yeah its definitely going to be a feud between Yoshioka and Kaorin
My guess is that Yoshioka will be playing the story out in Kaorin's position, in an attempt to get her to "feel" what it would be like to lose your lover. In an attempt to get her to see her side of the story and the pain she went through
This is Kaorin's story, she wrote it, so if it IS NTR, then it will be framed in her perspective, since its her pain. So wouldn't that mean Yoshioka is supposed to be the one feeling loss and despair?
I'm not personally troubled by NTR, but even so, I doubt it will go that route for many reasons.
I genuinely believe this will backfire on Kaorin, and its possible that she will suffer even more pain, after realizing the depth that Yoshioka is willing to go.
I doubt this will even impact Takeru as much as people fear it will. I mean he's literally pushing her to do this. He's not stupid, I'm sure he understands what position it puts her in, especially since she wanted to retire and get out of the industry altogether
I think people are giving the male character way too much credit and agency. He's a cheater, plain and simple. And only acting out that this will be "NTR" is baffling to me. I mean, he cheated in the first place. This all started with him.
Why are people now only being conscious of pain and agony of NTR in this context?
I feel like the author has deliberately put Takeru in a position where he has absolutely nothing to do with this. I mean, he can't even understand his true feelings with Yoshioka and whether he even loves her or not. He's just using her as a sexual outlet without committing to anything at this point.
And quite frankly, this is exactly how this affair started in the first place.
This honestly has very little to do with him
This is between Kaorin and Yoshioka, and the unspoken feelings they have for the affair in the first place
For Kaorin, its about coping
For Yoshioka, its about stability
Thats where the power dynamic lies in this story
TL;DR -
I think Kaorin unconsciously wants revenge. But it will backfire on her and probably cause her more pain.
Yoshioka will probably come out of this unhurt, because she's willing to do this diligently (if you can even call it that lol). Evil male character and Kaorin will probably greatly underestimate this
Dont really care about Takeru in this context, he's so distant from the story he may as well not even exist
