Maybe it's because I'm a student Anthropologist, but I'm somehow always surprised at how shocked and appalled others are about incest. It's incredibly embedded into human history and is still a common practice around the world. Ever since it was revealed that the Tsukiyama family committed incest the whole fandom has been rocked and I'm like: "lol, well that's a thing".

Cousin/cousin marriages have long been a tradition in Japanese culter, and while not as common anymore, is still a socially accepted thing. The Tsukiyamas really didn't perform any taboos by their culter's standers, unless they were relations other than cousin/cousin.
