just a smol theory : i think ida might be gay. i mean think about it, he's never dated anymore before aoki, ofc many ppl haven't dated but pretty much know their sexuality. but maybe ida was never into girls thats why he was a bit " i dunno what liking someone means" because maybe he tried liking girls, didn't work out, but the conclusion that he might like guys didnot come onto his mind, i mean hes a teenager obviously more busy with other stuff going on in his life. and when aoki came into the picture,ida put two and two together and realized he might be gay?
meh i should stop assuming sexualities and just enjoy the show, i saw someone mention something like this, not about kieta hatsukoi, but this clicked on my mind
Can the romanticising and normalising of minor/adult relationships please stop. It’s not art it’s harmful
it depends totally on place and culture of the region . in japan, its so common , and these men don't fall out of love when the woman grows up, because they are not pedophiles. where as pedophilia is a completely different scenario, where the older person is attracted solely because the younger one is an underage minor. stop expecting every culture to become white-like. i , myself , am extremely disgusted of pedophilia but this isn't pedophilia because its literally in asian culture , not just japanese. literally almost every asian culture has this.
nope nao doesn't end up with mei. they're just good friends. mei clearly loved ibuki her entire life. trauma enforced or not, shes most likely lesbian. at max bi. but laying your head on your friend's shoulder after such an traumatic event doesn't mean they're gonna be together
