novels are so easily ruined by illegal age gaps it’s insane. I mostly read rebirth novels so I know the female protagonist isn’t ACTUALLY 16 but does the ML know that rn? NO! and is he still going to continue pursuing a minor at his big age? YES!
It’s honestly so shocking how authors can quite literally have a grown man go “no I don’t like her, I’m not a p*do” then make them the damn ML like it’s embarrassing at this point….
they’ll have the ML talk about waiting for the FL to be legal and everything. ARE YOU HEARING YOURSELF???? How can the author try to make us root for a guy that is supposedly a top level soldier who is selfless and has correct morals then be a damn p*do at this same time? Baffling.
In this story I’m reading he’s legit her teacher too but no one is batting an eye. In these novels, everyone around the ML will just say some bs like “oh he’s an old cow that eats tender grass” then laughs like no bro he’s COMMITTING A CRIME. insanity level 100.
the hoops they jump through to justify a 25 year old MAN pursuing a 16 year old girl… weirdo behavior
