Youre crazy bro, this manga is shape of a not healthy relationship, I can't believe she teach mc who is still 15-16 years old about sex, is not something as mom would teach his son. And she is always so clingy to mc and seems like doesn't know about limit of relationship between mom and son. Its hilarious, I would like if she is become my girlfriend and were between at the same age
To be honest, same. Not because she’s hot but because I think this is what Jun needsI'm rooting for the mom.
Don’t get me wrong, he’s clearly being groomed, but Jun also has agency of his own since he’s pretty self aware that he’s sexually attracted to Saki and has been consciously suppressing that feeling for the sake of the familial relationship between them he’s grown to appreciate (even if he’s grown dissatisfied with that relationship).
That’s a total misread of Riko’s character, the reason she even found out about Saki in the first place was because she was stopping by Jun’s house to ask him to walk to school with her on their first day of high school. And her whole thing is that she’s always cared about him, even at times where she self admittedly failed to be there for him.
Well yeah I suppose it would be “nicer” that way, but then you really wouldn’t have the kind of story the author was going for, a fairly grounded taboo romantic drama with a darker tone and themes of neglect and abuse.
Well I take it that Saki’s actions are intentionally written to be off putting and wrong (taboo), but yes at the same time the female author is cognizant of an uncomfortable truth. That truth being that with some exception an adult woman having sex with a teenaged boy will usually be seen as a far lesser crime than the opposite scenario. You can even see that in the way this series’ companion manga (13 koibumi) handles its own taboo relationship; where it’s aggressively chaste in comparison. Speaking for myself as a man, I remember very clearly that when I was Jun’s age (14-16) that I would’ve gladly banged any decently attractive woman between the age of 15-50 without complaint, and I’m far from the only man who’d admit to that; so take that for what it is worth.
