I got warned to hell and back not to read this as if it was the worst thing on the planet, I read it now and it was meh.... about average not to bad like I'm obviously not an advocate of rape but its not exactly explicit and if goblin slayer or redo of a healer can do it then the inclusion isn't the problem.... sure it could have been built up upon and integrated better into the story but if it got axed then what can you do. I can see why the cleaning aspect wasn't the most entertaining to a lot of people and a lot of the story before the rape scene was centralized around it but I thought it was neat. I did however like teasing relationship between the two main characters.
