@Rea While I get having an instinctive ick respose to art with this kind of content, calling everyone who reads this a p*edophile is not the slam dunk you think it is. There are many reasons why someone would choose to engage with a manga like this one. People who have gone through CSA find media like this helpful for coming to terms with what happened to them, and not just via the more realistic, grim portrayals like Lolita or My Dark Vanessa.
Media like this does have its place as wish fulfillment for some victims. A fun power fantasy of having control in a relationship where you would realistically have very little. It's no different from someone reading a shonen manga to see the MC become powerful and get a harem of gorgeous women - it's pretty much the same fantasy of having control over your life. That's why some people like smalldom series like this. Surely you wouldn't say that someone who reads Berserk is a rapist because the plot contains ra**? People have other reasons to read things beyond being attracted to the characters.
If you care about the wellbeing of adult victims or underage people in this respect why don't you try advocating for better s** education in schools, or having better education around what is and isn't appropreate touching/behaviour from adults?
