Kinda fucked. So basically they feel like they'll have to do it regardless of how they'd feel sober/sane. It's pretty much akin to rape. And this dude is like, I'll have to keep doing it so I can keep adventuring lmfao.
@gyuri the differences are not astronomical. This is basically rape. The candle's description literally say it'll make any woman in the room with you have sex with you. There's no regard for whether or not that's something they'd ever actually do. This is against her will, there was absolutely no consent, this is rape. I don't know how the fuck you people here do mental gymnastics to assure yourselves that this isn't rape, but it's rape clear as day. And the "distance of feelings" is literally something the author will dictate. He gets to choose how impacted these women feel or whatever, so you can't really justify by how they're feeling/taking it as evidence towards it being something completely different if the mangaka is the one who contorls the narrative.
Imagine if some mangaka wrote about how a guy took advantage of a girl who was sleeping. Then the mangaka writes that the girl didn't mind too much, and people go "see, it's not rape. She's fine with it." Any sane person would say, "no, that's rape because it was done without consent." Nothing changes that fact, the mangaka trying to make it like it's somehow consensual because the girl was ok with it afterwards doesn't make any sense because it's not a real life scenario but one that he/she crafted.
