Don't really understand why people are using the argument of "the cheating part isn't really bad" or any of that. Cheating is cheating. Now idk if this is part of another series or not, but regardless, that was extremely fucked up. I would understand not wanting to do anything too intense in case she gets hurt or something, but I don't really even think that was the case at all. I understand it could make the series interesting, hell I'm curious on how this would recover after that, however for now, i feel sorry for anyone who wasted their time reading this. My opinion of course, no one has to agree with me.
I understand not wanting to do anything intense so that she doesn't get hurt or simply being turned off from her being pregnant and such. It's a matter of taste and I don't have a problem with that portion, some people are okay with it, some people aren't, that's fair. What I dislike is the lack of communication, I do agree that the amount of desperation the wife goes to can be a bit extreme sometimes, but oh well, she's trying her best and yet the guy can't sit down with her and talk about it, actually he is quite dismissive of the whole thing. You can see him just blatantly saying her stomach is too big and like just looking away and that's about it.
Look, I can see him getting jealous over his wife's ex coming over and shit, but the guy literally came over to say congratulations and even cheer the guy on (which he admits). But cheating on your wife when she did nothing wrong, and is also recovering from giving birth to a kid? Like hello? I don't really care if it's not a big deal in the manga world anymore, ya gotta remember, he cheated on his wife after she just gave birth and screwed another chick (presumably) out of the jealousy of his wife's ex visiting her in the hospital. It's not like she done kissed the guy or anything, she didn't do anything.
She tried to get some affection from him before the baby was born cause she knew there would be less time for that. She reassured him that he was not the person he used to be, and that he has grown, being a husband and a future father as well. Accepted and tried to understand his otaku ways, and was even okay with him getting it off to 2D anime girls (and even traps). Tried to get him excited in different ways that could overlook her large belly and even satisfied some of his kinks for some affection but she didn't get any.
I don't know in what realm would it be an "understandable have a nice day" scenario with that. His wife literally didn't do anything, so how can he justify cheating on her? Also, pretty sure that Mangaka girl who was drooling over a married man with a pregnant wife said he wouldn't do anything because he is spineless. The guy looked pretty tempted and turned on to me everytime he saw her.
I won't say that the Mangaka should burn in a fire or anything, this is their story and how they want to convert whatever message their trying to relay to readers. Hell, there could be some le epic backlash that comes to smack the dude in the face. I won't deny that the manga could end up being great, cause it can very well be, however it doesn't sit right with me, because no matter how much development is made, what is done cannot be undone. Cheating is never okay, at least to me it cannot be forgiven, the amount of trust broken in a marriage after one party cheats is not something easily brushed off.
