Jerome, sir, Raffy has clearly stated that yall are just fuck buddies, just hook ups. He's also clearly stated that he likes Jack. I don't understand the tears Jerome.
So, please help me out. WHY is he pushing Kanata away?
To me, Yoichi has had a major impact in Akira's life. He "helped " him with being gay after being rejected. Yoichi has influenced his way of thinking, his sex life, his philosophy, taste in music, etc. Even when he's saying deep meaningful things to Kanata, it's the things that Youchi told him. He REALLY likes Kanata but Yolichi was, for lack of a better term, his fuck buddy. They were friends and they kept having sex with each other. He probably feels guilty and he'll end up comparing the two. He doesn't think he deserves Kanata. This is my interpretation.
It's been a long time since I've resonated so much with a character in a BL. I completely understand where Akira and why he's pushing Kanata away. I know I'm bias but this is such a good series.
Although a lot of you don't agree with me or yall see me as a "victim", I do appreciate that I can comment on this platform and not be attacked. Everyone has a different experience growing up and our takeaways from those experiences vary. I was just sharing how my experience shaped me at 16. I resonate with Akira so much, that's probably why I'm really enjoying this series.
Yeah, 8 years. He definitely helped me out. Back then I know I would have fell in a deep depression and have suicidal thoughts had he not been in my life. It's probably why I don't regret it. And when we broke up, I wasn't depressed, isn't that odd?
Well I don't see it that way, it's all good. I probably would have been in a deep depression if I hadn't met him. Finally feeling pretty and accepted helped me. In hindsight, I should have waited, he was a grown man after all, but I didn't regret it. Would I recommend it, no, but I understand it, if that makes sense.
Semi long post. The way episode 5 made me feel kind of emotional is something I didn't expect. I was 15 when I met my first boyfriend. , he was 23. I had low self-esteem and was very insecure. I was constantly made fun of in school. When we talked, he made me feel good, he complimented me, talked to me, not about me. Of course I fell for it. We started having sex when I was 16. I knew exactly what I was doing, I wasn't forced, groomed or coerced. From jump I knew exactly how Akira felt, I've been there. That's probably why Akira and Yoichi being together didn't bother me. I'm glad Akira told Kanata the truth. Now Kanata needs to figure out his feelings. I'm hoping they'll be together in the end.
