Bro needs to kick her out pronto. She will bring him nothing but pain in the future.
Not seen the chapter yet and probably gonna spare myself the pain, but all i can say is he should just change cities and find a entirely new friend group 🫡

Because there's literally no excuse in the universe any of his "friends " could pull for anything really at this point its literally just Mental Warfare on mc

She’s pregnant, Takt is the father, but she doesn’t like Takt and likes Riku, so she’s trying to get him to sleep with her before her pregnancy is obvious so she can claim Riku is the father.

That’s the worst writing I could think of, so it’s probably 100% accurate.
God I hate how that's actually possible, when it comes to that manga 🥲

You're right, I didn't notice that, but isn't that even worse?

Apart from this having more impact on the platform than the manga itself—since contracts vary widely between publishers and are notoriously unfair (I know of a certain small mangaka who has a 90/10 split with a particular publisher)—it's well-known that most manga still rely heavily on volume sales to survive, and thrive.

If there's no significant financial impact, there won't be any change. As long as readers continue to pay to read the manga online and its overall popularity and volume sales remain strong, the mangaka won't have much incentive to change their approach. (Or he/his editor gets tired enough of said formula, which granted, is a real possibility)

The problem is, at the end of the day, that this manga, and its current formula, is being such a success that even an English version is on the way.

Not counting, too, that a good bulk of views and comment stats, do come from free readers regardless, just compare the stats on your own picture between chapters and their own timeframe, so, while the comment could have been made by a paying reader, a good chunk of upvotes might've come from free readers, and so on. (Which could be easy to find out if you pay for the chapter and make a comparison pre-free > free, but ain't nobody got time for that)
You're right, I don't think the author will make changes. I posted the comments just to show that Japanese and Western audiences are thinking alike. Recently, I had a discussion with a translator who said that the manga he was translating was intended for a Japanese audience, and that the criticisms we(Westerners) were making wouldn't align with Japanese readers' perspectives.

Now that you mention the statistics, I've noticed a decline in the number of likes. If a graph were created showing the number of likes from chapters 1 to 40, the decline would be clearly visible, but as you said ain't nobody got time for that.

Ok, here's a theory:

It's not JUST that Takt is gay and has a politically important family that's trying to keep it quiet. It's that he also needs an heir for some reason. So given his... Condition... His family goes to the only girl he's close to that they can trust and make her an offer she can't refuse (offering to pay off a family debt, or help a sick relative, etc, you know the tropes).

At first she agrees, but then the weight of what they're doing sinks in. And she realizes that the way things are going, her first time will be to create a child in a loveless marriage of convenience. As much as everyone in the comments here calls her a whore for her behavior toward the MC, she realizes she has ACTUALLY sold her body as things stand, and doesn't want her first time to be a reflection of that. She wants her first time to be out of love, perhaps her last taste of a loving physically intimate relationship, before she has to spend the rest of her life cloistered away taking care of a child or children, unable to get away with having an affair anymore once they're married and have a kid.

So though she's not actually physically dying, for all intents and purposes she sees this year as the end of her life and freedom, and is acting out of desperation in response to that, despite being either unwilling or unable to cancel the deal she's made.

So she whispers to the rapist "Sorry, but this politically powerful family that can probably easily have you killed is counting on me to pop out a kid soon. But don't worry, I can probably sleep with you after that... if you still want to." Yeah, no wonder Roofie McFuckface backpedals real quick from that once he's realized he's potentially messing something way out of his depth, when his goal was just to fool around with a cute girl whether she wanted it or not.

Why do I feel like this hits the nail on the head here this theory has made the most sense of any theory's so far. You know after finding this authors x account he seems to lean on the fmc in his posts alot gives of rent a girlfriend vibes

So she ended up not getting raped, whether that outcome was planned, I don't even know, but she's not nearly as scared/traumatized as MC seemed to be hinting her to be, at least not to the degree I wanted her to be.

I don't know what rapists think, but one could imagine they wouldn't give a shit what their victims are going through, so long as they get pleasured in the end, but I guess whatever she mentioned was too much of a turnoff for him to even push forward.

As for whatever the hell is going on with Shizuku, I seriously hope she gets the worst of it with how much she's toying with everyone around her.

EDIT: After reading @ElectroNYC 's theory, I don't even care if that is the case. Realizing she'll be subjected to the housewife role, instead of being honest with her concerns for the future and seeking at least some sympathy from MC, at minimum, she uses what little time she has that could be used to work into preventing the future she didn't want to instead act like a flirtatious slut. Oh sure, she could get that first-time experience with her loved one achieved, get her last act of selfishness cleared, but this will only paint her in a bad light in the long-term. What kind of image of herself does she even want to leave with the MC? What are his thoughts and feelings towards her in this predicament? Has she even consider them at all? Nope, this is alllll about her and her short-term goals being achieved, it seems.

My stance still remains: I hope she gets the worst of whatever comes to her.

Right now I'm sure the author doesn't know what is going on but they clearly don't need that to keep stretching the plot.

Reading these comments it hits me home that it has been 41 chapters and they can be summarized in like 6 sentences.

Takt is with her. She likes Riku. She makes advances so that Riku falls for her. Riku doesn't like disrupting the status quo. Riku still likes her despite of that. 2 other girls fall for Riku because reasons.

Alright Riku, this is your chance to fuck your friend's GF while he's sleeping in the same room as you. This is your doujin moment. Against all odds, Manager-kun doesn't want to rape a chick with who is cancer.
Fixed that for you.

Why would the rapist care?

To be pregnant long enough to know she's pregnant she would have to be a month or more into the pregnancy. Riku might buy it if he's too stupid to count months (so it IS possible...) or stupid enough to think it was an "accelerated pregnancy". He may not care and want to take care of her anyway if Takt dumps her, which is the only reason that there wouldn't be a paternity test. He does love her and if Takt weren't in the picture he would be exploring her dungeon like he was farming XP.

I doubt this is it but...

Arranged marriages (often of convenience) are still a thing in Japan. I doubt that she would consider that she's prostituting herself just for that. I don't think Takt's family would make the offer directly to Shikuzu.

It could be that she's being forced into it by her family (I don't remember and don't want to bother looking up) what their situation is but one stipulation could be that she must be a virgin when married. This is her out and she's trying to take it, but would rather marry Takt than have her first time with someone other than Riku. (I sincerely doubt that a rapist would give a shit about that.) That seems stretched but this isn't a particularly well-written manga so who knows.

Mr Rapist tanked my overall enjoyment of this manga period. The fact that she said she wouldn't mind fucking him after the threats....
This.. This is exactly why this manga is an absolute trash fest and should be cancelled. This is worst whore of a FMC that I have ever had the displeasure of being introduced to...

She WOULDN'T MIND fucking him after whatever it was she planned came to fruition and notice in the next panel where he rejects the idea she even goes "But.." As if she was about to say "But don't you want to fuck me anwy? "... She didn't know he was going to reject her so for all intents and purposes she was ready to get fucked right there and then or after the completion of her plan. This has the following implications:

1) She really doesn't care about Riku. I mean she really doesn't, if she's willing to offer her body to accomplish things without carefully thinking of ways to get help and prevent it, then she simply doesn't care.

2) "I don't mind having sex with you" If she was being forced to have sex this would have, been voiced in a different manner like "After my plan... Then fine... I'll do as you say... I will do anything you ask, just please... don't harm her". That sentence implies being forced and coerced into it as there is no alternative (lol there are many alternatives but anwy). The way she asks if he is hung up on her, accepts to have sex without minding and even going "B-but" when he rejects her, showing some anticipation or even regret from her part confirms that she's actually fucking flattered by him (as it appeared in previous chapters) and could in fact enjoy it, so she "wouldn't mind to have sex" with him..She was even fidgeting, tugging her shirt in a cutesy way as anime girls do when they are flaterred by or have feelings for the person in front them. Disgusting...

I am genuinely disgusted by this bitch. Was that the author's intent? Then he's the best author out there. But if his intent was for us to "sympathise" with her and come to like her... Well this is the point we laugh.

Also there's literally nothing in the world that she could have told the rapist that would deter him from fucking her right then and there (can't even say rape her cause it seemed that she "wouldn't really mind") apart from having Hep B or Hep C or HIV. Cause why the fuck would he care about her feelings of giving her first to Riku? Or if she's dying from a terminal, non sexually transmitted disease? Why would he believe a story about an influential family wanting her to be a virgin for their son? For all he knows she could lie about anything to save herself! Even period is potentially not an issue for such scum, they only care about asserting violence and dominance while ejaculating forcefully into a woman. And how come he didn't push for a blowjob or titjob to do the cliche NTR manga/anime thing where he take compromising pictures and blackmails her to submission?

The reality and the answer to all that is simple: a rapist wouldn't think twice apart from the STD part. So she either has STDs which she ACTUALLY DOESN'T mind giving to Riku (with how she persists on fucking him), a point that makes her even worse than actual trash or the author really stopped the rapist with something like "love triangle" or "terminal disease" (why would, a rapist care if she's going to die, he just wants to force his creampie into her)in which case he really needs to stop writing storyboards and go back to pure hentai.

This is all trash and I hope it gets cancelled...
