Yoon Bum is a broken, beaten, and scarred human being, whose mental instability and loneliness have led him to unhealthy outlets for his pent up emotions. With his weakened mind, Bum has found solace in watching his handsome classmate Oh Sangwoo; Bum's love runs so deep, in fact, that he has begun stalking him. While creeping in Sangwoo's house one day, Bum makes a horrifying discovery—a torture chamber and a naked young woman tied up, gagged, and pleading for help. The life of this woman is doomed, and Bum cannot escape either, as he is soon discovered. His eyes sickening and crazed, Sangwoo takes Bum as his newest pet and victim. What awaits the mentally tortured Bum is a world of physical mutilation, toxic dependence, and abuse masquerading as so-called love. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Hello everyone! Keeping this review compact and to the point as always. I’ve read up to Chapter 84, so please record that my thoughts are based solely on the content up to that point.
The story follows a fairly standard, slow-burn love affair plot, so don’t expect anything particularly groundbreaking or unique. The female character designs are visually appealing, but I can’t utter the same for the male characters—their designs tend to alter noticeably throughout the series (you’ll see what I mean when you read it). Overall, the male characters come across as quite average, especially when compared to their female counterparts, who seem a bit out of their league.
In terms of story progression, there’s not much happening on the plot front. The narrative leans more into a wholesome, fluffy vibe rather than building deep emotional arcs. While there are moments of physical closeness and friendship development between characters, emotional growth feels underwhelming. The characters struggle to state their feelings and remain stuck in a loop of awkward shyness, which becomes somewhat frustrating over time.
I would have rated it higher if the sentimental development had been
Great finale, probably one of the best episodes of the season even. We already have all the pieces of Hananoi and Hotaru’s past together, but I enjoyed seeing them put together at long last after it’s been hinted at the whole season. And I’m ngl, I’ve been ready for something a bit more crazy but it wasn’t really like that at all, it was actually really sweet overall, and it really helps explain why Hananoi has been the way he’s been for most of the show, he felt he fucked up with his first crush for good but she up and comes back into his life years later, I don’t think the relationship necessarily needed to go this far back but I do really appreciate it, it made the date that immediately followed even better. And it was a very cute date, and it was capped off perfectly as well with a follow-up kiss that holds a candle to the first, I’d argue it was even better because it was somewhat funny with Hotaru making that face beforehand, love isn’t just all seriousness after all, it can be funny too.
And that was it, I really enjoyed this romance anime. Yeah the art and animation wasn’t there at all times, yeah Hananoi setTaiki won the game (and actually placed 2nd in the tournament, which is great, but not amazing for a person like Taiki, that always strives for more), and with that won a date to the aquarium. He should be grateful to Kyou for that, true brother. Also, just discovered that Kyou's voice actor is the same as Frieren's Stark, and now I can hear Stark so much in him, but at the same time, it seems like it's another voice actor.
Anyways, the whole aquarium scene was wholesome, and reallt cute! And they focused early on the episode on the feelings Hina has for Taiki. When Hina found Chinatsu at the clinic, I think Chinatsu had the wrong idea of Hina and Taiki's relationship, but that's just my impression.
Talking about Hina's feeling for Taiki, it seems that Kyou has noticed that already, and I might misinterpreting, but I think Kyou might actually feel something for Hina, either that, or he was really just catching that she has feelings for Taiki.
Well, Hina was already getting a bit sad when she saw that Chinatsu had the penguin that seems to be a present from Taiki?
And then, the worst happened... SHE DISCOVERED THE SECRET. SHE NOW KNOWS THAT CHINA
