Ah yes of course....the background story....

 

[faiheartles]

I wasn't bad from the start.
They made me bad.
I just wanna be a good person.

 

[vonisme]

She's a snake alright

 

[Erbakhan]

She's really the snake

 

[Shiromon]

instead of, you know, cutting them off and trying to make new friendships, no. Become just as bad as them in response to how they treat you. So much for looking up to a kind girl and trying to be like her. The fact that she kept that behavior up as she got older and didn't even consider TRYING to change herself just makes me hate her more, she's a certified bitch

 

[Dekker]

Ah villain orgin story. Snake or no, she wasn't in the wrong there. Pigtails girl started it and tried to bully her out of the friend group. "Even the snake may strike in self defense"

Thanks for the chapter

Hey I'm not going to say this will change my opinion of her but at least I can understand where she's coming from. Kids can be cruel for misunderstandings & she got fed up with being the nice girl so she decides to be the one on top moving forward. Thanks for the translations.

I won’t judge until it reveal everything i think. And being considered for other is hurt when we don’t get the same. So i kind of understand

 

[weshwg]

i hope they go into more detail of what happened between our mc and her in middle school. Im assuming she just snake'd it and talked shit behind others backs (in this case mc). Just wondering if she ever felt guilty afterwards or if she actually didnt give a shit about him, cuz from the present time it looks like its the latter.

\> backstory makes her more unlikeable

For anyone who's not aware, the reason other posters are calling Hebikawa a snake is because 'hebi' literally means 'snake' in Japanese.

Foreshadowing.

Aside from that, not sure what the intent of this chapter was. Does the author want me to sympathize with her or dislike her even more?

Kinda hoping it's the second one...

So, you're telling me that if the people that you thought were your friends who were close to you turned on you without any proof whatsoever and acted in this way you would still be a "nice" person? I dunno about that...they're kids. They found their nice attitude got them nowhere so now the facade of a mean person needs to be used. Add to it that persona needs to be maintained to keep the things around me, because she probably believes they are around her because of her personality you get this.

Not saying she is a great person, but I can see it from her perspective. She looked up to someone nice, was nice to those around her, and instead of getting good things out of it she just got hurt....definitely would turn a kid into a mean person seeing that their efforts were wasted.

Nah the backstory makes her funnier.

 

[Nightazakus]

Honestly this story, made me laugh, it isn’t even that deep tbh.

The MC was traumatized by the selfish actions of a girl who was traumatized by the selfish actions of a girl. He is the one who broke the cycle, and his reward is sweet waifu.
