My God THIS SO HARD!!! It's the same with her "lackies". They clearly DO seem to think she's going overboard, but it's part of that defense mechanism of falling in line and "going with the flow" lest you become a target as well. Like a LOT if not ALL of this is basic MS to HS stuff that you look...
To answer the big question of why Koharu stopped going to school and socially withdrew, probably nothing specific. Oh sure there were events and things that happened, but as we saw there was stuff independent from Hozue that are unseen so it couldn't have been her and bullying lackies feels like...
Do we REALLY even know that? Like a HUGE motif of the series is Koharu not just opening up to people and communicating more, but the series also emphasizes that people are messy and complicated ESPECIALLY when they're dumb kids who are learning "how do I person". Like I know the pandemic had a...
This. The amount of embittered projection in this comments and past ones about about girls needing the "Goblin Slayer treatment" and gallingly fucked up. Like HOLY SHIT some of you people DESPERATELY need therapy and to get out more and touch some grass and breathe some fresh air.

Agreed. I also love how the series in general makes it clear that the change HAS TO COME INTERNALLY from Koharu herself. She has to WANT to change and put in the effort to do so and how all of those things have led to such massive changes in her life.
I'm just gonna say that years of being in the gaming and animanga fandom have shown me that no, GARGANTUAN SWATHS of those fandoms do NOT have the range for things like being empathic and view things like physical and sexual violence as perfectly valid responses for female characters stepping...
Not to mention possible social and societal stigma. Shit is different HERE AND NOW in the US, but to assume it applies universally is very naive. It wasn't that long ago that a response to your husband beating you would be, "Maybe you did something wrong" or "Maybe he had a bad day and was...
Read enough comments for various isekai slop, revenge series, and other shit and it becomes super clear that that mindset is par for the community course.
