Well that was... a lot. I haven't been that stressed out reading a manga in a long time, I mean who would've thought that Kiichi was that damaged and messed up. It's not even fully his fault though, his mother clearly broke him in some major ways.

I hope he can get some serious help and that he can get far away from his psycho mother. And I hope that he can be helpful to Anzu and her mission.

I enjoyed the character development with the sister, but man, two attempted sexual assaults in one volume is a bit too much. Him threatening and blackmailing her was already bad enough, you didn’t need to make him a rapist too. Especially because I can tell the author wants us to feel bad for this guy and I’m sure by the end of the series we are going to be expected to root for him, but I don’t think I am ever going to be able to look past what just happened in this volume.

Stopped reading when sexual assault almost happened. Won't say I'm surprised with a story like this, but I was really hoping it would subvert those expectations.
