If they tell you to stop, and you continue on regardless, it’s even more so.
Then 90% of the hentai are rape then, it's more than common in hentai to have the some on the receiving end telling to stop. I won't provide exemple because there is more than enough, even on the site, to prove my example
If you initiate sex with a person who is mentally and emotionally compromised, it’s technically rape.
What the ? And if both are drunk it's double ? Nozomi was barely drunk when Shion arrive, she wasn't even that smashed as people seem to imply.It will be nice to also stop assuming things when we didn't have Shion's side of the story. Before judging someone, you should listen to their side of the story.
I am well aware of the trope in hentai where no=yes, so I normally ignore it. This manga, however, is a little different in that Nozomi feels like she was actually attacked, which makes me wonder if the same rules apply, or if this might not fall into the 10% of hentai in which that is not the case. Where responding to “Do you want to continue?” with “No,” (page 10) actually means, “No, I don’t want to continue.” Regardless, I’m willing to shelve that complaint as a simple case of hentai logic, as the presence of alcohol is a much bigger issue here.
And legally speaking, Yes (according to American standards), two people having sex while drunk could technically constitute rape, as a person who is significantly under the influence of drugs or alcohol is not legally considered able to consent. In the situation you posited, of course, no one would report it, as it falls into a weird grey area where it would be hard to find an actual offender, but that doesn’t change the fact that it still technically counts, and it’s even worse if one person does seem to have been sober enough to realize this fact, while the other person wasn’t.
Also, how do you know that Nozomi wasn’t that drunk? She was clearly drinking before Shion arrived, and there is a gap between Shion’s arrival and the commencement of sex in which more drinks were likely consumed (it is possible that Shion managed to catch up during that time, but unlikely as Nozomi had a head start). Also, considering the fact that Nozomi could not remember the events of that night in the morning (down to forgetting who it was she even slept with), I’d venture that she was pretty drunk. Meanwhile, Shion seems to remember what happens (based on her reactions and the fact that she did not seem phased after leaving the shower), which implies that she was probably more sober than Nozomi.
Of course, as I said, I’m basing my assessment solely off of what we have been shown so far, which I am certain is not the whole story. There are a bunch of theories milling around in my head as to what actually happened, but the one I wrote down is the current prevailing one. If we see Shion’s side of the story, then I’ll modify my theory, just as I will as more of Nozomi’s story comes to light. Until then, the theory that seems to make the most sense to me is that Shion took advantage of Nozomi, who she appears to be in love with, while the latter was drunk and reeling from a bad break-up.
Edit: My God, that’s the longest forum post I’ve written in a long time. Sorry folks.
