Reminder Hasumi killed a mother, father and left 2 kids half dead, meanwhile toying with them all. And now were supposed to feel some kind of sympathy for her? Now shes a good guy out of nowhere? The fuck is the author thinking. Tokyo ghoul did this whole concept way better

Yeah, it's a bit disappointing nobody is bringing up the massive chasm between immediately offing oneself for hurting a fly and unrepentantly toying with, torturing and the slaughtering people without pause. It's one thing that some characters might as a flaw to highlight, but trying to disappear it from the narration without either convincing or distracting the reader is really bad writing, as they are sure to ask the questions the author seems content just skipping past like this.

But let's be honest: This story seems really disinterested in expanding on anything that isn't the two main characters, IMHO to it's detriment.

Like the author pointed out this is his fetish, and hes writing it for himself i guess. but god damn at least try making it appealing to a broader audience. The more he writes this MC, the more i think less of him. I assume MC is him and he becomes some ammoral white knight cuck and sort of ruins any character progression. Not just mc but the girls as well. Tokyo ghoul introduced ghouls feeding off suicide victims as a more moral way of living very early on in the story. Ken mostly ate ghouls to get back at them and power up. You didnt feel to much one way or another in that regard. But i hate lazy writing and hand waving of past descrestions.
