There was a chance. This manga had nice art, it was a guy with a relateable age doing a relateable hobby in a relateably nice environment and it was going to teach it to me from an expert and a cute newbie. It started under a misunderstanding and a stupid threat, but it could be excused.
It didn't get dropped in a page or two of that stupid threat. They made an entire chapter around a woman threatening to spread the false accusation of rape unless he did what he was explicitly serious he didn't want to do but she thought would be fun.
I mean, I'll read the next chapter, but I really, really, really don't think this will recover. Or can recover.
