nothing ever happens, she gon be rescued by some beta next chap, mark my words cuz

Probably MC or his buddy. She is to much loved by the author to be punished to much... She doesn't deserve redemption but it's obvious she will get it.

As much as I hate Hanabi and how he treated Souma, being blackmailed like this isn't justified. Karmic justice is supposed to be more or less equal punishment to how they treated others. Sure, she humiliated Souma when they were kids when she recorded it and her continued mental and verbal abuse, but being sexually exploited or blackmail isn't justice.

Tbh though, I think the point is that this isn’t supposed to be justice. We as readers are supposed to be disgusted enough that this person who is terrible in their own right (and has now realised it), is going to suffer herself while she tries to protect MC-kun from a potential problem she created for him.

I was expecting something more crude when seeing that warning...
Does ppl really gets triggered by that?

 

[jackjack9]

The video was much worse than I thought.
She should be punished, but Hanabi doesn't deserve this happening to her.

"Content Warning: The following chapter depicts scenes which some readers might find distressing"

I mean, it surely can't be that ba......oh god

Yeah, ngl, that CW was a bit weak sauce for where this story was going to go.

 

[drepurp]

Her using that recording of souma's body as blackmail and someone using that exact same recording to blackmail for her body is what she fucking deserves. I cant feel bad for her, but deep down I want souma to save her, and remind her she's nothing to him anymore and just ruin her mental more.

The comments section…

 

[masonery]

I actually believed in her redemption for a while, but on second thought nah

 

[Novis]

Welllllllllllllllllll my point hasn't changed

the blackmait doesn't change anything when we the audience and the characters already hate her, him threating her that video isn't gonna change anything. Yea she's a bitch, but still doesn't change that she doesn't derserved to be blackmailed into sexual exploits. Two things can be true, shes a bitch, but she doesn't deserve that.

Yeah, she's a friggin' child! A teen! Not to excuse what she's done, she deserves punishment and reprimand on a serious degree, but she's still a child that doesn't deserved to be raped over what she's done. And, once again, my biggest issue with this story is that the main character, WHO IS A VICTIM, has to be the one to solve the problems that his abuser causes. The story wants to portray him as perfectly rational at almost all times and it's fucking WEIRD. This is weird wish fulfillment. Everyone needs therapy.

lord almighty

 

[Mangamusa]

Author has run out of ideas again I see...

 

[Galdrasmidr]

Ok, this is just messed up...

 

[deandering]

What happened to this manga?

 

[Blackspace_2]

so this mf is bragging about having badically cp on his phone?

 

[CreepyKidInDaCorna]

As much as I want to see her get her comeuppance... Her being blackmailed into doing sexual favours is undeserved. Was she abusive? Yes. Did she do horrible things? Yes. Does deserve to get sexually exploited? Hell no. Nobody should go through that kind of thing even if they are a bitch. And if anybody is saying that her getting blackmailed into doing sexual favours is deserved, let me say this, your sick in the head, go touch some grass and lay off the Asmongold streams.

 

[Kaito57]

« Oh, no ! She doesn’t deserve that ! »

SAID NO ONE EVER !!!

 

[zeskarbit]

oh..

 

[SomeFreak]

I would say talk to a teacher, but they've proved themselves to be thoroughly useless already, and you know no-one here is sensible enough to report any of this crap.

 

[chiruno09]

Now what? It seems I was right that the video is about him being naked down there. People kept saying it's just a video of him crying lmao

 

[UdenEmpati]

Two things can be true at once.
Hanabi can be a godawful person who made cruel choices and directly contributed to years of abuse and trauma for the MC.
And she can absolutely not deserve what's being implied as imminent for her future at the hands of the delinquent.

This isn't "justice", and I'd hesitate to call it "retribution" - it's just exploitation.
If this were really about her 'paying for her crimes' against Souma, then it would be taking the form of something that actually serves as resolution for Souma. This? Doesn't do that. It just violates Hanabi in a manner that has no connection to the one she abused, with no sense of balancing the scales back in Souma's direction.

That is why I see this as problematic. There's nothing for Souma to gain from this, especially as I do not see him as the type that would find satisfaction in knowing his ex/abuser was in danger of being raped/trafficked "to protect him" or whatever.

Unfortunately it'll likely fall to Souma to save her now, too - which funnily enough, I think would go closer to enacting justice for him, since he now gets to clean up her mess and show her up in how selfless he can be, going to bat even for someone like her.
Hopefully that realization fully drives home what she'd done to him and what he's become in spite of that, and maybe she can find a more constructive way to serve penance for her past.
