I mean, I get that the queen has been portrayed as evil and we want to see her get her comeuppance, but at the same time, I'm really not comfortable with the MC slapping a collar on her like that.

Imagine if the villain did this to a good character, then told them it won't the removed until the character starts murdering, raping and pillaging.

This isn't justice; it's coercion. It's a simple-minded idea how to force people to change; the MC gets to pretend to take the high road without actually putting in any real effort to rehabilitate the person they supposedly want to do better, then blaming them when they don't change at all.
1) Yeah, Gokukoku no Brynhildr already did that. Many other series did it too.

2) It is coercion. On purpose even. She's literally have her head on a Saw contraption and was given the chance to change for the better but she didn't. But it is an effective cuff for her. It tortures her mentally and socially without too much input from the MC 'cause if you remember, he's a slacker than wants an uber shut-in life. This way, it's less effort and efficient to keep the stupid kingdom in status quo, else it's war and his family gets caught in it.

You do remember Jigsaw in Saw was a villain, right?

Why almost all royal blood in Manga tends to be either stupid or total asshole despite them living in a political world since birth and most of them portrayed to have high intelligence level? She can just pretend to be good for a while like how a politician does their job while scheming behind the scenes.
based on a true story :haa:
Most politicians are generally assholes in closed doors which is exactly where the setting is taking place
if this was in public, the queen would try to seem more likable

are you seriously comparing what a villain is more likely to do and have done compared to what MC's all over have been too pussy to do resulting in more death? and of course villains who could do that to a good character would, they're villains for a reason. they're supposed to be bad
but somehow the mc doing it to someone who clearly deserves it given how much of a pain in the ass the villain is, is seen as a bad thing despite it resulting in less death and less casualties or victims? huh?

Is she the MC's biological mother? I remember it being hinted quite a while back but I dunno if it was ever confirmed.

Man, what a shitty King and Queen. The king is trying to rein in the queen (previous hero), but the queens is far to greedy.

Man he didn’t even give her the decency to punish her, all he did was show up, kick her ass, tell her to change, and leave. She doesn’t even have any proof the event happened since he didn’t leave any marks. He hurt her in a way no physical injury could, her pride is in ruins, the one thing she holds value in over all others, even her own children.

Now look at her, reduced to a crying wreck on the floor. Even after five years of planning, an entire plot to resurrect a dark god, and the backing of an external organization. What does she have to show for it? Nothing. Even when she had everything stacked in her favor, he didn’t even have to try to knock her back down to where she belongs. And she doesn’t have any excuses this time, it’s all on her, her own weakness. Her pride in ruins. The most this did to him, was mildly inconvenience him, he was just annoyed that she even tried in the first place.

It's an easy setup for a conflict. Extreme prejudice that can never be solved with a mix of stupid motives and actions assures that there will always be a source of drama the author can rely on.

I mean, this is the case for like 90% of mediocre isekai manga. Even when the MC is kickass and proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that the opposition is wrong (or shows that acting against his interest is doomed to fail), they will still act against that out of pure hatred for them.

With how things are goin with the queen, I wouldn’t be surprised if she got some sort of redemption arc after revealing she was like a slave or something. Mostly because of her reaction to first getting the collar.

she just tried to murder an entire school full of kids and then also you, at least punish her for it, cripple her, cut off her hand or her legs so she had to crawl around, just do something.

Nah. With her level of ego, this level of "you're not even a really big deal, bud" treatment is far more effective than any nasty punishment could ever be.
