Similar to how Kinnugawa's flashbacks don't make sense with Okaya's own retelling. Nagare's also doesn't. Unless we bridge it with why Okaya was bullying that other kid despite this agreement.

Oh for fuck sake, more homo erotic obsession born out of strangulation. Didn't we have enough bullshit with the other revenge manga with a psychotic cult leader?

I'm convince this flashback never truly happened, at least in the context of Okaya's retelling. Okaya is way too much of an unreliable narrator to ever trust fully. For all we know, this could be him recontextualizing his initial actions with Nagare into something special/sexual.

ANNOUNCEMENT!! Hello everyone. Thank you for reading. This chapter is late due to multitude of reasons. We had a problem with the cleaner, a problem with accuring the raws and so on.

I am a unuversity student and as such i have exams coming up every week from now until july. In this time period i will do my best to upload chapters, however it will be significantly slower. Maybe one or 2 chapters at best. I just want to be translarent with all of you. Thank you for reading.

The new Maria no danzai discord server here:
https://discord.gg/xgWpa9v9d

The one on reddit is unmoderated. This one is objectively better. Come to the server and let's talk more. You will also get notified when a new chapter releases.
Good luck with your exams! Gambare!

Imma be honest chief, the real unreliable narrator is the author.
That's all there is.

I'd have to go back and reread the start, but I'm pretty sure he originally started getting bullied to save another kid, and was collecting evidence until he could expose them. So this "twist" directly contradicts the start of the story.
Also want to point out that all of this is in Okaya's head. An unreliable narrator

That is a fair point... but is he so insane as to invent memories of childhood friendship with Nagare? Since again, pretty sure they only met in high school.

For the love of...
I'm going a bad parent here but..

HEY AUTHOR, LOOK AT THE OTHER TITLE ABOUT REVENGE FROM A TEACHER! THEY'RE GOING TO FINISH THE REVENGE AND YOU'RE STILL GLORIFYING SOME PSYCHO AND VICTIM-BLAMING A DEAD KID BY MAKING HIM HAVE A SAVIOR COMPLEX!?

WE JUST WANT SOME REVENGE ON BULLIES! WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT LIKE JUUJIKA NON ROKUNIN!?

sigh
This manga's drawing quality is better, but for the love of fuck, finish that psycho-kid already!

what if later on Okaya broke the deal and went back to bullying others?
