As I understand it (so take everything that follows with a huge grain of salt), Japan is extremely hands-off when it comes to family matters that don't directly affect the public; you know all those manga and anime where a side character is getting abused or is being forced to marry or something, the protagonist tries to help, and then gets shut down by being told it's a "family matter" and, thus, none of their concern?Do Japan not have child protection laws? How can they just leave someone underage in an apartment and no one seems to care? I know it is what the author wants to set up the story but it bothers me
This article from 2011 by a president of the Tokyo High Court (so presumably a judge or something) suggests that this is not legal, since Japanese parents have a legal responsibility to care for their children until they've reached the age of majority.Do Japan not have child protection laws?

Well, the clause of "Japanese parents have a legal responsibility to care for their children until they've reached the age of majority" does have loop-holes.This article from 2011 by a president of the Tokyo High Court (so presumably a judge or something) suggests that this is not legal, since Japanese parents have a legal responsibility to care for their children until they've reached the age of majority.Do Japan not have child protection laws?

Now, things that aren't legal can of course nonetheless happen in both stories and real life. But in that case a story does need to mention the legal context and why it failed here. Like the typical "all teachers turned a blind eye to <school problem like bullying>, so I was on my own".
if no one make report, thats itDo Japan not have child protection laws? How can they just leave someone underage in an apartment and no one seems to care? I know it is what the author wants to set up the story but it bothers me
no one wish to be pathetic, go wear his shoe n then u know how it feel, the parent part i didn't experience them, but the bullying part yes, i fought back but there limit to it, especially when u weak, not to mention your opponent not one, plus teacher who turn blind when u get bullied but got crystal clear eye when u fought back. its hell u know.The ultimate fantasy of these generic isekai manga are having impossible circumstances like the worsest-imaginable school bullying and being abandoned by one's parents, all so one can have an excuse for being so pathetic.
Speedrunners would probably be able to no-hit the fight even without glitches anyway. I mean, seriously, is there any action game fight people can't or haven't beaten? There's people who have beaten Sekiro using only their feet, what could possibly stop them here?The base premise really does require you to invoke that PS1 era early internet everyone was just theorizing on how to save Aerith days huh?
Because nowadays, let's be honest, someone would've datamined the game and already determined all the options and speedrunners would've found how to just glitch the fight and bypass everything to get to the end credit with arbitrary code input or something.
Depending on the game it may take years mind you. For example Ninja Gaiden took years for a no-hit run to be completed.Speedrunners would probably be able to no-hit the fight even without glitches anyway.
