"so whats your next step in life?"

off a cliff, next question

[nisalsaa]

Somehow a very woke ass take on a sign of affection 😭 like ignoring the ableism just to shit on the het slop is so 2026 coded😭😭😭 me af ngl 😭😭😭

Wait what ableism? Am i missing something here? Could you please explain because i didnt really catch ableism in the show (mostly has to do with my lack pf experience and knowledge with most disabilities and the ableism of the wider world)

Also i wouldnt exactly call a sign of affection het slop, its a cute story, my main opinion was that it is only cute and not that much realistic and that if it was queer itd rock but like these are extremely personal or well, ig that is hetslop.. but geh,, het slop feels too mean to say for this story idk

(note: I’m hard of hearing and clocked all of this bc I have experienced most of this OR something similar)

(Second note: this is one of the few romance mangas I have read bc I liked the anime sm)

(I also am a certified hater and found your posts funny bc everything you said was true!!)

- when we meet Yuki in the first episode, not a single person she comes into contact with can properly communicate with her. Even the girl who takes her notes, does not speak the same language as her and therefore cannot really communicate with Yuki.

-in the anime, we see her parents only a couple of times, but we never see them use sign language to communicate. We learn in the manga they just never bothered to learned JSL. In fact when they meet itsu for the first time they assume he’s going to “find out how hard” it is being with Yuki, and break up with her.

-yuki struggling to find a job. This is expanded a little more in the manga and shows just how awkward a job interview can be (this is something i relate to bc people assume hearing loss = bad at work for some reason???)

-the second male love interest is explicitly ableist. Period. The way he assumes Itsu isn’t serious about Yuki. The way he assumes Yuki is helpless bc she’s deaf. THE WAY HE PHYSICALLY PUTS HIS HANDS ON HER TO STOP HER FROM TALKING! Hell, the first time we meet him he discourages his friend from maybe pursuing her and the only reason he comes up with is “cause she’s deaf”

-also every new person at some point asks her if she can read lips. Which in itself is problematic and lazy. Without having to explain that even the best lip readers in the world can only understand 1 in every 3 words.

And something that is manga only:

-yuki has an older brother who’s girlfriend recently dumped him. We find out that;

1) he never told his girlfriend that his sister was born deaf

2) when the girl finds out about Yuki she breaks up with the brother bc she cannot handle the thought of them having a deaf child

3) her brother AND her parents make the decision to not tell yuki this bc “she doesn’t need to know how people are”

There is probably more but this is all I can think of on my 30min lunch break 😭 Rewatch an episode or two (if you have already finished the season) and try and keep a look out! I feel like once you see it you can’t unsee it but I’m biased!!! Im deaf af😭😭😭

Something I think people who don’t live with chronic illness don’t understand is that there is a big difference between resting to get better and resting to avoid getting worse.
