Let’s Start The Closing Meeting. ~ So Begins The Bullying Trial ~ - Vol. 1 Ch. 5 - Idol

[Pr1mus]

This one's gonna be fun to read

 

[Bearil]

Wow. Headed straight into the fire, now.

Also, whoever guessed that the teacher stole the card, congrats. Your guess was right on the mark.

If you think about it was pretty logical, for the kids was a rare card but nothing worth to get themselves into trouble, usually only adults knew how ridiculously expensive it was and the teacher would be the last suspect in such a situation

 

[UdenEmpati]

Well there's Satou and Takagi who are being propped up as bystanders who've at least reached out to sensei and asked him to intervene

sorry, you're right - not the only one. But again--if no one stopped the bullying from happening, then I don't know how much Himari will take that particular nuance into account.

Dude i called it but who would have thought she made it as an idol. I want to know is, how she made it without the classmates noticing?

Her mom either married someone to help Tojo become an idol or mom died and some relatives took her in.

I’m betting on the latter because something definitely broke in Tojo.

 

[Darroth]

I'm still theorizing that the avatar is someone else and Himari doesn't have any idea that this is going on.

Maybe one of her fans found out about her past and got pissed.

 

[Smokeguy420]

Interesting, now i wanna see what can a famous idol do to ruin a persons life.

I imagine she'd use her fame to expose the literal torture she went through at that school and then her fans who are essentially free agents will exact revenge on the classmates and teacher for her. If not the fans then just there social life is ruined

Nah when I was in elementary school I was searching pokemon cards I wanted on ebay and going to card shops. A lot of kids these days won't know, but just as many will know what the "chase" cards of a set are, especially one that's so expensive it's 100k yen. So at minimum we could assume that his close friends who are also in the game could reasonably know how much it's worth.

Card battle tournament? Maybe the one organizing this is a stalker or die hard fan or maybe even one of her idol members who learned or stalked her enough.

 

[DumFck]

look, unless she has concrete evidence about the bullying, and honestly, maybe something worse that wasn't shown to us, i don't really understand everyone being so scared of her, say she uses her idol fame to tell her story, she is debuting, she is a no one in the industry yet, not much people would care about her sad background

 

[vinostrife]

DAAAAMN SHE IS AN IDOL!?
SHE HAS POWER TO MOVING PEOPLE! GOD DANG ITS GONNA BE PEAK

 

[Hicleric]

Given how allergic agencies are to even the whiff of scandal, there's probably going to be some mutually assured destruction going on

 

[DumFck]

that'd be so cool

 

[NerimaShinjuku]

This just got so damn good

 

[DrarRV]

Why blame the only guy who protected her only because he run away? He must have a valid reason for that, got backed into a corner or something and thats not his responsiblity in the first place!

 

[Chronigan]

I was actually thinking she killed herself and this was someone else getting revenge for her.

 

[BegoneThoth]

I don't know if I'm buying it. 30 or so 17 year-olds are really going to participate in this because otherwise some idol is going to tell that they bullied her in 6th grade? And some of them didn't. We've seen at least three of the class resisted, and most of the rest could probably get by simply scapegoating the teacher. 🫤

Usually in revenge stories the first "wave" of punishment nets many who don't take what's happening seriously. So I feel as though the first punishment will make-or-break this series. 😶

 

[master-34]

is there any character that gets a redeemtion or do all the characters stay's the same?

 

[ankiwi]

Wow she managed to achieve her dream to be an idol & will now have influence to get her revenge. I'm glad the teacher is a revenge target because there is no way he should continue being a teacher especially how he acted after the card got stolen. Can't wait to see him lose everything with the hopes his family leaves him (unless they're also shitty people). Thanks for the translations.

He wouldn't worry so much about it being revealed if they were shitty people.

 

[youdontmatter308]

Secondary to that, he was a child and his parents dragged him from the situation, not much he could do.

Yea and it seems like the kids hate him more so it’s just making him look more like the victim than her. He’s literally on his own

Foi ótimo que a Himari-chan tenha virado o jogo, ela humilhou todo mundo, agora que comece a vingança 👍🏻😎
