I understand, it is refreshing to see bad characters once in a while, but this? Maximalised manipulativeness and cruelty in yet another "bitch" from Kodama Naoko. It's darkness for darkness. Sneakiness for sneakiness. No plot, no moral, no development, no exit for this type of relationship. And I'm pretty sure there won't be.
It's not so simple in life with these kinds of situations. It would hurt much more, the plot would cause more pain and thoughts and would be more real if there were suicide vibes and hate for themselves. Without this unnesesary forced artificial cruelty.
It's just disgust for disgust. I don't believe it so I feel no sympathy. It's not what the good story should do.
So what does the author want to tell us? I know it's strange to ask it after one chapter, but as I said, I doubt there will be any adequate development. I think the author never thought of putting a lesson into a story. She just wanted to draw and maybe to provoke some cheap unfounded negative emotions, that's all. Well, the art is nice and I don't have much to read anyway, so I'll lazily follow with one eye.
