   The two protagonists, with their striking contrast, really resonated with me. The protagonist, diagnosed with a mental illness, appears delicate and fragile on the outside, but is indifferent and insightful on the inside. He's not a saint in the face of adversity and has a clear bottom line for self-preservation. The other protagonist is a flawed and yandere, covered in old wounds, habitually feigning weakness, his possessiveness hidden beneath a gentle exterior, only revealing his vulnerability to the protagonist. There's no mindless coercion; the mutual tug-of-war is well-written, and the sense of brokenness feels genuine and natural.
