I sometimes wonder if I'm the only one who never even noticed the rape overtones in Narcissus in Chains, because I didn't pick up on it until I read an argument about it on her fanboard. I think I was alread so used to Anita's somewhat abusive relationships by then that I was numb to it. After Jean Claude blackmailing her into a relationship in The Killing Dance, and the rape scene in Blue Moon, Narcissus in Chains didn't even ping my "wow, that's distrubing" radar.
