I really love your comment because it gave me some interesting ideas ^^
Ryo's childhood wasn't Cinderella-ish, lol. While he was verbally and physically abused and spent a lot of time on his own, he did have a stepmother to alleviate the pain somewhat. Though it only made it all the worse when she cut him after the accident. But yes, the time he met Shige, he wasn't completely broken yet, I think, to him, Shige gave him a new lease of life with love and companionship that he'd not known before. It's a normal feeling for people who have gone through normal childhoods, but for affection-starved Ryo, it was everything.
And I think you're right, sometimes a person can have friends, really good friends, but no matter how much those friends try to save them, somehow it's not enough. They're not the 'right' person. It's sad, but there it is. Yamapi was really that to Ryo; he'd stuck to him and been a good friend throughout, but even so he couldn't 'save' Ryo in the way that Shige did, and then eventually didn't.
I don't think Ryo believed in the whole previous life thing either. He was really just toying around with that idea XD
Thanks for reading and for lovely comments like these <3 I will still try to update in a timely manner though because I know that the storyline will quickly be forgotten if I don't XD
