After a certain point, I thought Itsutsuse intended for this to be a satire on the tsundere archetype in hentai, but once she literally broke her shackles, I just turned my brain off and after that it was great.
I personally don't care for tsunderes & I do not think domestic abuse is something laughable IN ANY FUCKING WAY.
And as much as I find this story sweet, my advice to the female MC is to change herself, slowly but surely. Because if you don't, you deserve to be called a violent bitch who don't deserve love.
Ah, sweet Vanilla and Tsundere goodness!
"Violent tsundere bitches just like you"? Man, way to lay it all out. Still, she certainly gave some good advice. I mean...If your hands are tied, you can't quite punch him, right? But then you can still kick him, headbutt him...So in the end she decided on full restraints...And she broke them.
Almost makes you wonder if this is some kind of parody on the concept of a tsundere girlfriend.
But still, I definitely respect what he did. You don't need shackles and whatnot, all you have to do is keep taking those punches and rolling with it. Only a man who truly loves a tsundere girl can put up with it, and he is thus rewarded for it...In more ways than one, once you realise he's a bit of a masochist who also gets off on getting beaten up.

Humorous Note: On page 17, panel 5, we see Tatejima framed within Kikka's moist, gaping pussy---a striking image that's almost certainly a reference to the famous gun barrel sequence that opens every Bond movie (especially since Tatejima is wearing a business suit with a tie). That's a very clever touch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_barrel_sequence
"Glasses-chan" (don't recall her name being given) certainly didn't pull punches when describing Kikka-chan as a "violent tsundere bitch". Nonetheless, she proved herself a genuine friend and the ultimate wingman (or rather, wing-girl) by letting Kikka study her manga, for ... er, "research purposes".
And while I was about to conclude that Tatejima was withstanding her tsundere attacks via "the power of love", it seemed that, in the end: "Hey Mikey, I Think He Likes It (the abuse, that is)!"
