The book hinges mainly upon an interpretation of Rin's actions; some have used the word "seduction" to describe them and others "sexual harassment" — in my opinion the former description is ludicrous and cannot be justified. A lot of people have not seen it this way but to me this is fundamentally a book about Stockholm-syndrome where a character gains a twisted affection for his rapist and all the more interesting through that.

This is perhaps subverted by that the book aptly mixes serious and comedic elements; Rin's advances are sometimes portrayed as humorous childlike innocence and sometimes as grim sexual harassment. Another thing is that Rin and Aoki's relationship might be the primary one but it's not the only one: it's fundamentally a piece of literature about multiple broken unhealthy relationships the characters are involved in with most characters having suffered some degree of psychological trauma from it.

Despite a lot of the subject matter being quite serious the humorous and light tone also makes it easy to forget: as said in a vacuum it's hard to consider Rin anything else than a rapist but the often light tone of the comic makes it easy for the reader to forget this. It's an demonstration of just how easily a heinous act can be perceived as mild by adding a laughing track to it which is a device often employed in comedies where often very violent things like dropping anvils onto people are brushed away as light comedy simply by having a laughing track played when it happens.

Plot-wise I felt the comic slowed down near the end when it seemed like all progression was halted after a certain pivotal event; at the start the reader was introduced to more and more troubling histories of the character but eventually at about 80% the comic reached all development that was there and after that it seemed like it was just filled with side-plots and the dynamics of the relationships didn't really change any more until the final couple of chapters where it again picked up.

Art-style wise you're going to get the usual cartoonish and unrealistic style of eyes taking up about 60% of character's facial area — some like it and some don't. The art style in particular as said takes away from some of the more serious and darker themes of the comic.

Overall though it's a comedy blended with a psychological analysis of how seemingly good men can turn psychologically troubled and dark from having experienced childhood trauma whilst retaining some of their good qualities though committing very dark acts as well.
