As for people complaining about the newspaper clippings, she did say she brought clippings about things that would happen regardless of her impact on the timeline and that is is why its about natural disasters since she cannot really make changes if a hurricane happens or not.
Okay, no. There's a problem with that "well, you can't prevent the natural disaster so I'm not having an impact on the timeline" argument: natural disasters kill people and you can evacuate people before hand to prevent tragedies. Let's set aside the issue of convincing the Japanese to heed... Actually, no, let's address that as well. She has 12 years worth of natural disaster clippings from newspapers. If you go and accurately predict natural disaster after natural disaster - including things like time, place and the death toll (important here) that could've been prevented... Public opinion and sentiment is going to start acting on their own, regardless or without government intervention. And if you don't believe me... people have done far, faaaaar more to influence people by means of things like cults. And the Japanese aren't immune to this - just look up "Aum Shinrikyo."
So... What happens if hundreds or thousands of people that are "SUPPOSED" to die don't die? You change the timeline. Far, far more than if you had simply gambled and won money with future knowledge.
As to why she is back on her young body , law of conservation of mass since she already exists as the clippings are a violation of that law.
...That's a contradiction.
Also, unless she happened to have the same height, weight and amount of atoms in her body as a supposedly 22-year-old as her 5th grade self (un-fucking-likely), that's not the law of conversation of mass at work. Hell, not even the consciousness aspect of it would be the same or equal. The brain of a child is not as large as that of an adult. And you lose more neurons as you age (and this starts young - around in your late teens). And the connections between existing neurons and the information that they contain... admittedly our scientific understanding of consciousness here is really limited, but... they're different because of the vast age differences in your brain.
I'm not sure how it would work out, but I wouldn't be surprised if suddenly putting your own 22-year-old brain "pattern" or consciousness into your 5th grader self would be like... I dunno... Trying to install Windows 10 and Windows 95 at the same time and just assuming that it would work and they'd play nice with one another. I think the more realistic outcome is neurological issues, pseudo-schizophrenia, multi-personality disorder, strokes, brain aneuryms, brain damage, ect., ect.
To me the "what if" is actually more interesting and thought provoking than, "lololol imma time travel and turn my sensei into a lolicon so i can fuck and marry him." I mean, yeah, the plot is dumb and applying logical and critical analysis to it is overkill. But, then again, the plot doesn't
have to be dumb. And, color me biased, but I'm still kinda pissed that the thirsty AF lesbian & masturbating dancing duo manga was axed and we got "quick! porn-level plot!" this in return.
