I felt like it went back and forth, but it was the catgirl scene that really poisoned it for me. She just looked so uncomfortable and like she was about to cry and he seemed to either not notice or not care.
Fair enough. That cat girl was initiated by him. But that makes it a 5 to 1 ratio. And I didn’t get the impression that she wasn’t in a position where she couldn’t simply say “no” when she really didn’t want to play that role.
"Initiated" meaning "created", sure. But he's often the one requesting. And just because she can say no doesn't mean the dynamic isn't weighted. It often felt to me like she isn't good at saying no, and will put up with discomfort and embarrassment in order to avoid a confrontation (a common result of ask/guess cultures clashing, which I saw some of in here too)
To be clear, I do see how someone else could read things differently, but for me the impression came across so strongly, especially in that moment, that I couldn't see anything in good faith anymore.
