A bit of Warning

later on in the series the chapters get dark even in the latest chapter ...well I won't spoiler it

But that's exactly what we use the spoiler bars for... so we can talk about things without ruining it for others.... lol....

Consider me invested. Cute and fluffy but highly disturbing. That feeling of wanting to see more but at the same time dreading what comes out of all this. Can't wait to find out more about the mistress' past.

Slavery and Smartphones in the same era? Seems weird, but sure

Not that weird. I mean, our own world is like that. There's countless people that are in Kaede's former situation right now.

Indeed. Human trafficking and slavery are HUGE issues that are just not well-broadcast. I live in the US and we have a huge problem with human trafficking here that nobody wants to acknowledge, in my state there is a city up north of me that is simply KNOWN as a city hub where kidnapped folks--usually the very young of both genders--go to and "disappear". It's insane and frightening.

So while it may be a tad extreme to expect to see a grown woman "bought" in "a normal Japanese setting", one who has been visibly scarred, had an eye gouged out, and even partially flayed... it's still not impossible, especially for those that have money....

Considering a conversation that happens in a later chapter, this comment is kinda funny to see.

Do you really think that just because humanity is more modern nowadays that slavery doesn't exist? Shit, there's even concentration camps in China and who knows where else being kept in secret.

People say "never again" but it still happens.

Might be a bit too heavy handed with the edgy angst for me

In the US it's broken into two main categories: sex trafficking and labor trafficking.

Usually those forced into sex work are shuttled off to other countries where it's easier to control their victims and fly under the radar of law enforcement, but certainly not all. It's a very black market sort of affair.

Those forced into labor are either forced to work on farms or do other sorts of manual labor, or are forced to work in the homes of people who have the monetary and social means to keep their "servant", servile, with threats, manipulation, isolation, debt bondage, etc.

Kaede in this story appears to have been forced into both, given her reactions we've seen already; and despite her new mistress being pretty benevolent so far, it's still forced labor under the premise of Kaede being property and not a person. So... yeah. It's realistic. Weird? Yeah, also weird that this goes on in the real word. But yeah...

Damn, forcing your slave to sleep on a Facebook cat emoji pillow. That’s got to be a lot worse than the implied forced coprophagia/piss drinking.

Yeah, I hope you didn't think it will had been cute shit. Juste a little spoiler ahead Kaede get kidnapped by her "mom" and Fuuka will save her. I leave you how to your imagination.

"Look at those sheep, living peaceful lives"...She says while sitting on a park bench enjoying the sunshine.

I really feel like this scene would make more sense/have more impact if done from a basement window or something? I didn't even realize they were still connected to the underground, I thought Fuuka was just a rich person who bought a friend (as you do in mangaland).

Chapters are out of order

On the series itself, I like it okay, but it could stand to be a bit less talky

It is not slavery. You can't treat your own body part as slave.

But wait would we get to "masturbation" scene?

Well, that was a thing. From Kaede's reaction, I'm thinking 'mom' isn't who she says....

this is weirdly wholesome? the tags made me kinda want to brush it aside but I got intrigued, and I'm glad I checked it out. BTW that Mistress's "something"... I want to know what she wants to get back.... beside the obvious answer...

I feel like I hear about human trafficking all the time. Wasn't there that case about that truck in the UK recently that had a bunch of people die because they were being trafficked in a truck? They couldn't breathe and it got too hot I believe. It is rather ironic to see someone say this never happens when this manga touches upon this very issue lol

So like, the art kinda scares me more than the topic and story lmao is it just me?
