Tsuyoshi - Daremo Katenai, Aitsu ni wa - Ch. 315 - Secret Talk

I really don't understand why are they writing Hoshizaki like this, his plan is "Hey, so the reason you are so miserable is the government, but why don't you join the government?, I promise THIS TIME it will be fine"

That's where the immature beat really shines through. It doesn't take a genius to find out that if you are known for being strong taking a dive or two would solve that. What little tsuyoshi has lost in his life (he had next to nothing to lose to begin with) has corrupted him without skipping a beat. He was always a shitty person and wanted to hurt people, that's the only logical assumption with how he's been written

You do understand its a comedy?

You do understand its a comedy?

This might have started as a comedy but it is absolutely not one now. There is no justification for that tag besides there being one comic relief character and he maybe has one or two panels of comic relief every few chapters

I'm not sure if this is intentional or not, but the current arc is a great critique for Japan's system of society exclusion (and by extension, most prison systems in the world).

How do you expect a criminal to fair better in the future if you take them out of the society? Like, what do you think they will do next? Take their worse treatment lying down oooor try their luck doing a criminal activity again because, sure it's risky, but it gets you the actual profits? No surprise most of them pick option no.2.
Especially so when you have cases like Tsuyoshi's where he just got caught up in a bunch of other people's bullshit.

Dude, halfway through the current series he reads No Longer Human. The tournament arc is ultimately won by American imperialism. This whole thing is the author's thinly veiled sociopolitical critiques of modern Japan. It is political satire to its core.
