And the flashbacks we saw, showed very little in the way of physical trauma as well.
In the comics, Killgrave forces her to watch him have sex,
and makes her beg for it continuously.
I think he made her jump non-stop too? (which they gave to Hope?)
Like Killgrave comes off as an asshole,
but not the deranged, psychopath that some YouTubers described him to be in the comics.
Was I upsold to have unrealistic expectations?
Or did it feel like the show played that part just a little too safe?

I agree, I didn't feel for JJ at all but with that said the style in which this and DD are done is still way more refreshing and enjoyable for me vs the really PG network TV stuff like Shield, Flash, Arrow. Not that there's no room for my enjoyment with those styles but sometimes I just want the opposite.
