Speaking as someone who has worked with Venante before, I definitely agreed with the erotica tag before this chapter and feel that it is within the moderators' discretion to place tags without community approval if a lower tag is definitely unsuitable. The sexual violence tag is a bit harder to stomach, though @erova and @Freezee have made convincing arguments above (and I wouldn't be surprised if this manga goes further with sexual violence in later chapters).

Also, last I checked, erotica-tagged works are visible when logged-out. It's the pornographic tag that is troublesome (though you can still see them if you have links to them).

Issue with the erotica tag is that it's not visible on the sfw new popular titles list, but even worse that aggregators use this rating, and lock them behind logins and hides them on their sites. This ruins the visibility of the manga a lot, getting it out to fewer people. So it's not only about mangadex, but the countless scrapers that uses this site.

This is very much not a sfw series, and should not be listed as such.

Ugh, hoping for more exhibitionist actions from the girl and less screentime from the wimp cringelord MC.

Why does it even have the sexual violence tag?

For the record i would have voted to keep the current tags, this manga is not front page safe, not everyone is a total degenerate like us and is ok reading about a pathetic guy getting off from an handjob he didn't gave his consent to

Jeez, is should read more wholesome trash

Anyways, i hope the childhood friend wins, that the MC grows a backbone, and for this girl to end as a side hoe, getting an OF model as a mistress is not the most classy stuff, but it bets having it for a main
Knowing the author, both girls are on it somehow.

Wow, dinner and a show!

Dinner: Well, she's not wrong. Maybe not completely right, but bro's so insecure he won't stand up to her. At least he tries to do the right thing, even if he's utterly incompetent at following through. More than I can say for myself at times.

I guess the love triangle is in full swing. only question is whether we keep a triangle or if more girls join in. Could go either way given the past works.

note: funny way they show the cum, by making Aika's eye completely white. Gives an even more menacing feeling in addition to going around censorship.

----------------------------------------


Show: I mean, I don't see the mod issue. it's a brand new manga and we're caught up, we don't know how far the manga is going to go, of course there will be a need to edit and revise the tags. The author's other two manga are a lot more comedic, so it's not like we'd expect some fendom harassment in 3 chapters of a new work. But no place is safe from power-tripping I suppose.

idk how this wouldn't be erotic or sexual violence

the "debate" has been going on since previous chapter.

it was erotica from the start. I think sexual violence was ambiguous before this chapter. someone having a depraved fantasy when they are clearly too restrained to ever act on it isn't sexual violence in my eyes. just intrusive thoughts.

it's not the point whether it happens just once or not

I don't think it matters here, but in general I think this is a pretty bad yard stick. frequency absolutely affects a content warning. You can say one "fuck" or show a few butts and not be R rated. A manga that has nipples once early on and never again is not erotica and maybe not even suggestive depending on context (e.g. it was in a normal bath scene).

At the end of the day we're westerners arguing about content policies from Japanese publishers. Those sensibilites should be taken into account instead of going "butt? Erotica" or "forced kiss? Sexual violence"

----------------------

Also, this drama against scanslators who already are in low supply only hurts readers and the site. If it gets too bad, they (and by extension, we) will simply migrate off. Especially ecchi readers like us, we're used to needing to migrate and backup our shit, because this drama loves targeting us, who just wanna be left in our little corner. You can't be spamming donation links to keep a site up while harassing the people who provide your content.

if your powers were removed too, it's surely linked to that

I really don't wanna die on the hill for fucking Hajimete no Gal. But clearly something personal occured if an unrelated manga's permissions were also hit (one that has almost 200 chapters and is very consistent in content).

Also, really stupid for a forum site to be referred to a different forum site to resolve issues. You build out an entire communication network but have no arbitration on that same site? No wonder they couldn't get them working again for 3 years.
