@NateAlmighty
Yeah I agree that part was wrong and her reasoning is stupid. Questioning Sayu isn't wrong though BUT she should've done this in front of MC or talked to MC about it before doing it.

Right, I was just answering you saying she did nothing wrong
Questioning Sayu wasn't necessarily wrong but it's still underhanded when she could just have a grown up talk with Yoshida since, y'know they're both adults, maybe even including Sayu in the conversation

@NateAlmighty @sprite-1
I agree Gotou asked a good question but people are questioning her motives behind asking that question.

I'm also thinking; Did she asked for Sayu's own good or did she asked it to get rid of a rival? And also, why did she asked only when they're alone. MC is the guardian of Sayu. He deserves and should know of Sayu's answer but Gotou asked Sayu only when they're alone.

@uriekuki
Dude. Ppl are angry not because of what Gotou asked. Ppl are angry at her motives for asking that question and the time/circumstances she chose in asking that question. I don't know about you but from all the information given about her so far, I don't think she's asking for the sake of Sayu's good.

 

[fishcakes]

Nuuuu. Gotou, why ya so mean to Sayu... These qns are things that you figure out in your own time after things settle down, rather than rush an answer!

 

[Purplelibraryguy]

You know, some people are saying she's foolish not to be facing the idea that she can't stay there forever, and Gotou is doing her a favour by making her face up to it. I don't see it. Look, she ran away. And she ran away from something that was bad enough that sleeping with random strangers was better than going back. So what are her choices? She can go back. She can give herself up to the authorities, who will at best put her in some kind of institution, at worst send her back to what she ran away from. Or she can go out on the street again and sleep with random strangers.

Do any of those sound like an improvement on her current situation? To the contrary, every day not doing any of those things is a good day. Her best course of action is to delay the reckoning as long as possible. If she stalls long enough to turn 16 or even 18 she'll have a lot more options.

BEGONE THOT

In all seriousness, this bitch is the biggest busybody I have seen. She needs to screw off now

 

[Lex79]

I still don't know if Godou is simply a manipulative attention whore of if she genuinely loves Yoshida in her weird way, but she still looks better to me in this situation than Sayu's coworker.

@Kevadu—

Gotou hasn't told Sayu to do anything. All she's done is ask some perfectly reasonable questions.

No. Gotout is driving the discourse in a particular direction, using a rhetorical question.

And if Sayu wanted to explain her circumstances she certainly could be she's chosen not to.

If is is possible that Sayu could, by exposing herself, show a flaw in Gotou's implicit argument, then that argument contains a non-sequitur, regardless of whether Sayu does so; and it is not incumbent upon Sayu to expose herself.

Begone thot

@nfzeta—

Whether an arrangement is voluntary or not a secondary issue in ethics.

Their current situation is a dangerous limbo for them both and Gotou isn't telling her to return to what she left as much as she's forcing her to think about her endgame, her plans forward.

Gotou is doing this after seen to it that Yoshida is excluded from the discussion; Gotou is actively seeking to have the decision made by a vulnerable minor and not by the adult who has taken to heart the interests of that minor. An honest effort would have involved Yoshida and Sayu in discussion together.

 

[hikufalafel]

I'm starting to think people who defended Gotou did it for the sake of being different than the majority.

 

[Kaarme]

@Lex79 She might genuinely like him, but she also has some kind of psychopathic trait. It's abnormal she would first turn him down smoothly with a lie and then suddenly start to chase him when it looks like he might have found another woman. It most certainly does mean with almost 100% certainty that if they started a relationship, she would manipulate him and feed him lies while smiling all the time brilliantly.

 

[dinahnda]

Even if im just yoshida's friend. I will do same thing as godo did. I mean, why she freeloading into stranger house without future plan? Okey, yoshida is a nice guy and im sure sayu isn't evil person. But if she avoiding question like " how long i will be here?", that just stupid.

Everybody has problem, and they have to overcome that

 

[zeronguyen]

Now I think I don't support Gotou at first place is a good choice actually. Even if anything happen in the future. Sayu maybe just an runaway girl with secret background, but somehow I feel she better than Gotou. How the fucking hell she can flirt with someone who she rejected at first place? And I think she won't leave until Yoshida request unless there's bullshit thing happen

 

[TitanAnteus]

It's true that Sayu would definitely have to face that question eventually. I don't think the MC would bring it up either as he's too trusting and not conscientious of her.

While I still hate Gotou, I can see her relevance to the plot. But yeah... none of the heroines are really that good. They all have major flaws. Only one who's flaws I can deal with so far are the Kouhai's.

Gotou(Senpai) - Manipulative and selfish. She liked the fact that the MC liked her, and as soon as he was ready to move on she makes a move on him. She doesn't actually want to be in a relationship with him or else she wouldn't make such an extreme lie and hurt him emotionally like she did when he confessed him.

But she's socially competent and attractive.

Sayu(Runaway) - Young and immature. She ran from her problems, slept with dozens of other men, and doesn't really respect her body that way(she makes the moves on MC at one point) while having intimacy issues. She's very reliant as well. By far the most of a hassle. Dealing with guys that might show up in the future is also a hassle. Literal NTR bait. Honestly... by far the worst choice imho.

But she's young and attractive and actually has feelings for the MC.

Kouhai - Lazy. This is my assumption but she probably wants a normal nuclear family where the wife stays at home and the man works. She puts the least amount of effort possible to finish her work, and does whatever she can so that the object of her affection has to interact with her.

But she actually has feelings for the MC, and is very understanding and supportive.

______________________

The fact that everyone including the MC has glaring imperfections makes them feel more human though. MC's flaws are not nearly as bad though. His main flaw is that he's too accepting. He just accepts the highschool runaway. He just accepts the fact that his Senpai is a virgin who actually loves him (LOL!!!!) He just accepts having to deal with his kouhai who for some reason can't get the hang of work even after a year at the company.

His flaw weirdly enough is what draws the girls to him, but it's still a flaw nonetheless.

 

[TrueGoddessReincarnation]

Why is this bitch still alive? Like she was the worst before and now she's bullying a woman half her age. Die you cow. Also the people saying BEGONE THOT need to shut the hell up already. What are we fucking reddit?

 

[mammon]

@Happily_Grim
In the end I can't really finish this argument until we know Sayu's true motives.
After reading your post I just realized your whole argument stems from the assumptions that Gotou will do something wrong (which I'm 100% sure she will btw).
Until then I'm still convinced that Gotou is right - Sayu is suspicious person with unknown past and Yoshida must be wary of her. Also given the Gyaru's last statement on the past chapters.

I really need to read the novel now...

 

[senzlord]

Forever yeaaaaaah

 

[Kirin-kun]

Gotou has ulterior motives (to drive her "rival" out, because she's selfish), but her questions are on point.

 

[hikufalafel]

@dinahnda Okay here we go again.
It's not the question. People aren't pissed off at the what but the why. It's the motive behind asking that question. Of course people would not get angry if the one asking Sayu is a friend but it is not. Do you honestly believe Gotou asked that question because she cares about Sayu despite the story already show us vain and manipulative Gotou is?
