I mean, she was tortured for 3 days at the hands of some untold number of sexual abusers, so.

Before I report it, I'd like to point out this chapter is out of order.

I have to wonder what becomes of Shikimi now - surely her story isn't over, and I'm curious what (if any) precedent there is for "MG on MG crime" like this. I refuse to believe it's never happened before, especially since Wolfgirl was about to try and throw down against Lemon, herself, before all hell broke loose.
But Yuuri & Aoi pulled through, and Lemon has some begrudging respect for the Defense Attorney. And moreover, she showcases that--whatever weirdness of the setting and her part in it--she does have the best interests of "justice" constantly in mind, and seeks to do things "properly".

I wonder if she'll start turning the corner on seeing the System for its perverseness at this point; I suppose that would depend on whether the story itself intends to go that direction, and with that reveal about the more insidious nature of "defeated MGs" at the hands of monsters, I can't help but expect that things are going to move beyond the courtroom sooner or later and start involving the world at large.
The procedural nature of the story up to this point works for showing off various fetishes and sexual situations, of course, but we've gone far enough into other areas of the setting and its implications to simply step back into "the formula" up to this point. Aoi's continuous involvement as 'an outsider', Lemon's own defense trial, the reveal that MGs are not above attacking other MGs--even if seemingly for understandable reasons...all of that makes me think we're going deeper, and bigger, and [insert your favorite sexual scaling innuendo here].

Thanks for the TL, though. This is one of the weirder and more perverse titles I'm reading, but somehow the story's also among the more gripping and compelling.

I'm just in it for the story so didn't even notice.

 

[Gaporigo]

Some rare nice realistic boobs, good stuff

 

[BobBob]

Shikimi has huge nipples.

 

[jackjack9]

Hopefully, this trial has given Lemon some empathy for the magical girls that have to suffer these cruel punishments.

 

[geistchevalier]

The court sketch artist is on point(s)

 

[Karothat]

Identifying/pinpointing someone's habits? Looks like the Attorney is channeling Apollo Justice here!

 

[Drakeon995]

Wait. Did Lemon intervene because she afraid Shikimi would die?

I knew crow mask artist would not miss them the moment they are revealed

 

[nisashi13]

she is surprisingly innocent still huh? even smoking seem like it just her way to act tough.

 

[Sakuyadorf]

this is more ridiculous than Rosen Garten Saga
magical girls? ace attorney? erotica!? ALL AT THE SAME TIME!? VIVA JAPAN!
Court Artist best character

 

[Goldni]

dem nips so good

 

[kirby_422]

I feel we should have had more black lying speech bubbles? When the defense was calling her out on her power, she made a number of denials in white truth.

There is something morally wrong with the societal norms within this manga. (the manga is still very entertaining and I'm liking it's "serious" tone all through out) It's as if they kick the corpses of magical girls whom are already dead from public embarressment. I seriously don't get why they prosecute people with punishments worse than death as well? They're literally being treated as lower than cattle.

Disclaimer: Take everything I say below with a grain of salt I still enjoy the manga a lot and I am very understanding that some of these punishments are very fetishistic or a display of the common tropes used within magical girl pornography.

If I were to relate the society of this manga to something similar it would be the Murim/Wuxia genre. As their stances are very similar with magical girls being martial artists and citizens being commoners. Let me explain! In Murim stories martial artists and commoners are of different realms, and thus are treated differently. Martial artists must always prepare for death and once they've picked up a weapon and have trained their body with it, they have the responsibility to never drop it (Like a magical girl). Commoners shouldn't be involved in the battles of martial artists and although there are many exceptions this is the general stance in Murim societies (Like the average human in this manga). Although sharing such similarities the treatment they receive is DRASTICALLY different. You don't normally see a martial artist get convicted for the crime of loosing a battle. (take this with a grain of salt please) You don't see them getting punished with such vulgar means for the crimes they may commit. They get served a death sentence, torture via a whip or a timed sentence, and every one of those punishments seem EXPONENTIALLY BETTER than the punishments within this manga. I know these societies are very different, one has the expectation of there being only one winner everytime, in this manga, and in contrast, there could be a winner on either side, in the murim. This was nothing but a rant but I swear to god everytime the persecutor mentions a punishment, or the people present within the court start speaking vulgar inappropriate language, or a child is involved and has to bear witness to traumatizing tragedies unfold before their eyes...
AGHHHHHJHHHG!!!! MY HEAD CAN'T STOP THINKING AND HATING HOW MORALLY INCORRECT THE MAGICAL GIRL SOCIETY IS I'M GETTING FUCKING PTSD FROM THIS SHIT FAAAKC.

Thank you for listening to my rant. This manga is absolute cinema

Kiddo, surely you never had the luxury to see a lot variant of nipples, right? Go watch some adult films, around 100 should do. Don't limit yourself to only one genre or country of origin, go watch JAV, western, Thai, east Europe, middle East etc. No need to wank to any of them, you're in there for 'study'.

After you watch all of that go back to your comment and think to yourself, "Did the nipples are as hideous as I thought?".
