Nothing else happened, people were losing their shit and calling the mangaka homophobic for pairing up the main character with a girl instead of the fujoshi-preferred guy. The "abuse" issue didn't really come up, I think, even though that would probably be a much more valid reason to be upset about this instead of "super popular seinen/horror manga has het canon ship, stop the presses".
(I'm a slasher, too, but damn, the entitlement and rudeness of some so-called fans is ridiculous.)

Eh, the only people I know into it do prefer the guy, but moreso because he doesn't apparently slam the love interest's head into things and beat the shit out of him and would prefer it because it wouldn't be an abused kid heading into another abusive relationship, which a lot of abused fandom people are becoming sick of in media. Which I agree with.

I absolutely agree that this is a shitty trope that needs to die already!
But the main thing I've seen people accusing the mangaka of/cite as the reason for their threats and suicide suggestions is "homophobia", not "but she abused him". And even though that's a terrible trope, it's still not a reason to threaten a creator over.
(Though I have to admit I'm not in the fandom, but I've seen quite a few tweets and it's pretty nasty.)
