At the end of volume 19, Takumi sleeps with Reira despite the fact that he and Hachi are already married. Takumi frankly asks Reira if she would really settle for being his mistress, but it's obvious Reira is unhappy with what happened between them because she's always loved Takumi.. And Hachi herself accepts Takumi's cheating as long as it's not with Reira. And I agree. I do think Takumi did love Hachi, it just wasn't in a healthy manner. I personally believe that there are multiple different types of love and the way that Takumi loved her was a possessive kind.
Takumi RAPES Hachi. Throughout their relationship he emotionally abuses her, belittling her feelings, isolating her, even gaslighting her and telling her her observations of his jealousy and cheating are wrong and in her head. Go ahead and enjoy Takumi as a character. I do! I even see things from his perspective and relate to him a bit.. Love can come later. People always love themselves the most so they tend to love the person who best accommodates their desires.Takumi Ichinose Takumi Ichinose (一ノ瀬 巧 (いちのせ たくみ) , Ichinose Takumi) is the former bassist and leader of the popular pop-rock band Trapnest, the husband of Nana Komatsu, and the father of Ren and Satsuki Ichinose.
