I can believe that guilt has made Tatsuo not see Kanako, but I mean he doesn't even care enough to look for her, or stop the affair, or even face Kanako. He continues to shamelessly carry on his affair while Kanako silently suffers. I wonder why Kanako doesn't confront him using texts. He seems to get her messages.
I reread an earlier chapter, and Tatsuo specifically says he hates girls who know men can't reject them because they're sexually attracted and instinctively protective of them and then goes on to say they can't hide their arrogance even as they're throwing themselves at you. And that those types make him sick. Then when Kanako states that most guys wouldn't care and play along and he states that he can't and then Kanako goes on to say that that's just what girls do, and he says that she's different, and she insists that she isn't and they go back and forth for a bit before he tells her that they are equal and the same.
So it just boggles my mind that he falls for the exact thing that he basically said he never would. Maria is a perfect example of the type of girl he said he hated, yet now he's in love with her? This last chapter frustrated me, but I feel like it gives us a bit of insight into the relationship between Tatsuo and Maria. After 29 chapters, I am hoping that Kanako's suffering will stop. I wish that she would just confront him via text. If I were her, I would just come out and say, "I know you are having an affair with my sister." Maybe that would be enough to jolt him out of his hypnotism? I get that she is in shock, but she needs to divorce this bastard, tell of her jerk of a sister, and move on to better things.
Yeah, I am confused as to whether or not Maria did see Kanako. I thought she did because she started asking Tatsuo if he cared for her more and loved her more than Kanako. It did also look like they met eyes. It's obvious that Maria has her hooks in him good. Tatsuo is such an idiot.
I hope they give us a good explanation as to how this happened. It was obvious that Tatsuo was flustered at meeting Maira during his and Kanako's wedding, but Kanako herself said that they only saw Maria during holidays. So I guess when she wasn't there they had some interaction that started all this. I wonder how long it has been going on. We don't get much of a sense of time and Tatsuo only just started to not see her, but it seems like this has been going for a while.
Seriously!? That is so disrespectful! It seems like he loses all sense of reason when Maria is around. I don't think Maria hypnotized him in the traditional way. If you go back to when they were younger it just seems like Maria has a way of getting what she wants. Plus as you guys mentioned she has been f*ing Kanako over her whole life. It seems like Maria probably wore Tatsuo down. He may have even let his guard down more than usual because she was Kanako's sister. Not that this excuses his behavior. He's a pig and if he truly loved Kanako then he would have stayed faithful. Even if he was hypnotized to love Maria it would be hard for them to go back to how things were.
Yes! Gingerednoodles! I also suspect Satake as well of being behind the scenes of this in some way. I thought something was off from the beginning about him. Although, I still I wouldn't mind if Tatsuo got beat up, but if Satake is behind this then I don't want Kanako to end up with him because that's just messed up as what Tatsuo is doing.
I knew I had a reason to be suspicious of Satake. Something isn't right about him. I don't think Tatsuo cheating on her is a dream, but I think now more than ever Satake may have been one of the instigators. Her waking up in bed is very weird. Like what happened? And she says it looms like her room, but something is off.
So Satake is definitely a psycho. I guess he has some kind of magical ability or something? And it seems like he made a replica of her apartment which means he has been in it before. This manga is trippy.
Satake has tapped her house, stalked her, drugged her, and I'm pretty sure he has a hand in what happened between Tatsuo and Maria and yet he expects Kanako to all of a sudden fall into his arms?
HCP I think she is in shock. Seeing your husband and sister doing it in front of you would be scarring, and then finding out the person she confided in has been stalking her and basically upending her life would be a shock. Kanako has been living in this bubble for quite and while and thought she escaped her sister, but now it turns out to have been all a lie.
I just want to see the end already. Its been dragging on.
Ugh! Maria is so pathetic. She is twisted and needs serious help. She doesn't love either man. She just wants what isn't hers. So disgusting.
