Ijimeru Aitsu ga Waruinoka, Ijimerareta Boku ga Waruinoka? - Vol. 6 Ch. 30 - World of Bullying

[ngkn92]

Good enough ending.

It's a bit cheesy to have the bad guy dies, but it's good that the old man has his revenge.

Of course the MC goes on a different case of bullying. Fk them up, MC

This story was a masterpiece. Anyone coming here to check if it worth reading let me say this: yes it is. Go and read it. Just prepare an afternoon, because after I started reading I could not stop.

Welp, I stayed up an extra hour and a half to finish this in 1 sitting. Worth it? Ehhh, kinda? I wouldn't have slept otherwise lol. At any rate, I hate the vast majority of characters here. Dozens of students that saw the bullying and did nothing. A mother that tried so hard to keep her family together she ignored how bad it was for the one she loved the most. A man so utterly consumed by revenge he's willing to destroy the lives of many, many children. And, like, everyone else in the story.

Shiori was a trooper though, she really did a good job hanging in there. Not just that, but her DETERMINATION is astonishing. Thankfully it seems like she didn't end up nearly as terribly as Aizawa. Glad I finished this, now off to bed for me.

This was a really satisfying read. Unfortunately bullying situations like these happen in real life and often go unresolved

Batman ending, god I love it!

I'm usually bad with Drama and Psychological but man I got curious because of Youtube Recommendations and that was definitely worth the read with such a satisfying ending!

Man, that was such a satisfying read, I stayed all up to 3 AM reading it in one setting. I loved every second of it. 10/10

i’m iffy on the fact that surveillance and police involvement were the systemic solutions at the end (as someone who lives in america lol), especially when you have characters like the principal embodying the potential (arguably innate) corruption of these systems. that said, i understand the story was only partly about bullying as a systemic problem, so trying to have a more nuanced take on that aspect would possibly take away from how phenomenally tight the rest of this deeply character-driven story is paced. plus, this might be a particularly biased nitpick based on my personal politics, which shouldn’t have much (if any) bearing on my thoughts on this story

i was expecting this to be pure catharsis, and by extension, kinda trashy. there definitely was lots of catharsis, and i did love pretty much every second, but the story had so much more to it than that, and it was all SHOCKINGLY well-done. characters were all huge highlights; i adore how many different perspectives are at play here, and how each of them has at least one flaw and one redeeming aspect to it (not to say the character or their motivation as a whole are redeemable), with the possible exceptions of manaka whose only real flaw was being a bit naive (and even then, i would only argue a bit, since i think he was getting at some pretty salient points about the flaws in aizawa's views) and shiori whom i can't help but feel bad for even thinking to criticize. i mentioned it before, but god, the pacing of this is mind-blowingly great, to the point where it might be my favorite part of the whole thing. i aspire to have this level of control of the story i'm writing.

overall, good shit. first time in a while i've actively thought about recommending something to people, since it seems to be a bit obscure.

Author pulled off the ending really well, all the story threads that were thrown out early on came together really nicely at the end there, also love that it shows he's getting revenge on the entire class, not just the main bully, bullying can't happen without the consent of people around you.

It can explore those things all it wants, but the main plot reveals what the author is really saying. And what he says with the main plot is very simplistic: bullies are bad people who deserve bad things.

Not every character in fiction needs to be presented with a multifaceted human personality. But to make the main villain have as little depth as Suzuki diminishes the story's capacity to deliver any greater ideas.

Honestly he was a very realistic villain, obviously the ending was very exaggerated but most people also don't get bullied by having words engraved on them with a chisel. Most bullies never change, the vast majority of the time their apologies are self serving and without sincerity. People can only change with years of dedicated work to it as well as enough self awareness to know that change is needed.

Most of them refused to take responsibility for their actions and so they didn't change, they just kept blaming the victim. The only girl that took responsibility was also the one involved in it the least so her apology was sincere and she was able to change quickly as it wasn't really her baseline, she was mostly caught up in the moment and her own negative feelings at the time.

The need for every character to be super nuanced to be good characters is pretty bullshit because I've met people like Suzuki, Nagumo, etc and I've been the victim of their harassment (again stressing on no where near as bad as what happened in the story) and I can see the exact same mentality, when I bumped into them years later it was clear they hadn't changed one bit, except for 1 guy who became an extremely polite hipster, that 1 through me for a loop.

I felt like I had PTSD reading this, I got halve way through it and didnt know if I could finish it but pushed through.

Having been bullied for all my secondary school life, its horrible to think that I can never forget what they did to me, but it was forgotten the moment they were done.

Bro, same, I was bullied during primary and secondary school and it really is like that. Was fine during 6th form though. At a certain point you have to make a choice that you either spend the rest of your life thinking about them or you try to move past it for your own sake. That being said you don't have to forgive them, I know if they contacted me and tried to apologise I would tell them to fuck off but unless the topic of bullying comes up (like in this manga) I'm able to not think about them at all.

Unless you're able to 4d chess some amazing revenge strategy it really isn't worth your time to think about them so even though it sucks that they will never see appropriate consequences for what they did you're just better off moving forward.
