After the assault, the story is extremely sweet and cozy. The language is simple. It's just slice of life countryside living. So anything new you pick up from this book, you will definitely see in other manga. Even the fantasy kanji is quite basic and useful.
This manga is probably the most emotional one I've read yet. The desperation of the characters is well portrayed. I enjoyed it a lot.
Sexual Assault Tag
It happens in the first few pages. It's definitely rape. Afterwards, they employ some yaoi gymnastics to make it not a big deal for either character. The yokai forces himself on the MC but is also technically not allowed to do anything without MC's permission. So the manga logic is that MC accepted it at some point. It was easy for me to write this off as yaoi nonsense and enjoy the rest. Please do avoid this manga if any type of assault is triggering though.
