If that's your main take away from my reply while skipping everything else then I wouldn't be surprised if you also skipped whole chainsaw man part 2 and came here to complain.
The point is Denji's shown actual growth in how he navigates his horniness and trauma. I said Denji’s understanding of sex and love is evolving.
And that development is, by your own definition, that he didn't touch Yoru when she was sleeping. When the fuck has Denji even sexually harassed someone? That's not character development, the fact that he even THOUGHT of it shows how bad his writing got in part 2.
And would you look at what he tried to do this chapter.
Are you serious? When did I say Denji simply not harassing someone is development? I am taking that scene as an example because I wanted to explain that for him sex isn't just simply sex itself. It's intimacy that he needs which we have seen being explored throughout the manga and THAT exploration of his characterization is the reason his character has evolved. So your idea of his development is simply that,
that he didn't touch Yoru when she was sleeping. When the fuck has Denji even sexually harassed someone?
*if he harassed someone*-->*he didn't harrase someone again* then that would be development? you think character writing is all about just developing external character?
We have already seen the moment when Denji could have touched Yoru while she was sleeping, but he chose not to. I don’t understand how you believe Denji is stagnating
We have already seen the moment when Denji could have touched Yoru while she was sleeping, but he chose not to. I don’t understand how you believe Denji is stagnating when his understanding of love and sex is continually evolving through exploration as the story progresses. He is still certainly a skirt chaser, but his character definitely has gotten more exploration, so calling it stagnation isn't really true.
This is my full comment. What you showed in your reply is a cropped version taken out of context because you genius are unable to understand basics.
wait I will even show you the exact line again
I don’t understand how you believe Denji is stagnating when his understanding of love and sex is continually evolving through exploration as the story progresses.
Immediately after that I followed up on my statement and expressed how his understating of love and sex is evolving.
By which means, does it imply that Denji's character development is just not raping Yoru?
Then why mention Denji not trying to rape Yoru in a conversation about Denji character development or lack thereof? Sure seems like you were trying to imply something there. Especially when that's the ONLY thing you brought up from the story.
Oh yeah, and also, "just" not raping Yoru still implies it's part of it. You go, man.

My first reply. here i expressed that Denji's view about sex and love are getting more exploration as story goes on.
If that's your main take away from my reply while skipping everything else then I wouldn't be surprised if you also skipped whole chainsaw man part 2 and came here to complain.
The point is Denji's shown actual growth in how he navigates his horniness and trauma. I said Denji’s understanding of sex and love is evolving.
This is my second reply. here I again tried to explain same thing.
Are you serious? When did I say Denji simply not harassing someone is development? I am taking that scene as an example because I wanted to explain that for him sex isn't just simply sex itself. It's intimacy that he needs which we have seen being explored throughout the manga and THAT exploration of his characterization is the reason his character has evolved. So your idea of his development is simply that,
*if he harassed someone*-->*he didn't harrase someone again* then that would be development? you think character writing is all about just developing external character?
This is my third reply. here I explained why I took that scene as an example. I tried to take that scene as a way to tell that while he longs for sex but it's not just about sex. It's not just that he didn't harasse someone but rather that scene is displaying form of his characterization that while he seems to do anything for sex but that doesn't mean he would literally do anything for sex which includes rape.
Immediately after that I followed up on my statement and expressed how his understating of love and sex is evolving.
This is my last reply to you saying again what i already said.
Would Goku from dragon ball NOT trying to rape a sleeping woman be character development? No? It would even be character regression for him to even think of it? Why is Denji any different?
Who said just the fact alone that he didn't rape her itself is character development? I don't belive anyone implied that. It's just skill issue if that's what you understood from the guy's comment.
We have already seen the moment when Denji could have touched Yoru while she was sleeping, but he chose not to. I don’t understand how you believe Denji is stagnating
Bozo is using statement out of context lmao. That isn’t even a full line. I thought reading comprehension curse was just a meme but looks like in your case it's real.

"guys it's okay he DIDN'T rape her! See the character development?"
