You know what, yeah, it is more fun to have chapter discussions that include angry opinions, and it's better when people are honest. But it doesn't mean I can't find that opinion funny. A bit like a person that would go to the snake exhibit and be surprised that there are snakes.
why are you so hostile lil bro, and went back hours after reacting to my reply lol. did i hit that nerve badly?

just tell me what you want me to say and be done with it haha, youre putting too much thought and energy into this, gives me the impression that youre bothered that its just now readers addressing how fucked this manga is.

Toudou drugged people for her own ends initially, but she gets a pass because...she's a teenager?
She does not get a pass? It is a fucked up premise, and Toudou is an horrible person. There is an enjoyment to be had in watching her schemes backfiring, which does not mean that the viewers actually root for her. The "pass" that she's getting now is because she actually started to improve as a person

I like that this implies that not every girl has to be attracted to just the MC. Though I do still wonder if the MC will pick one or go the harem rought.

Everyone always bringing up the love potion like we forgot this story exists because of a date rape drug. The love potion has always been a way of over the top events back firing on Toudou being a shitty brat which is why we can just laugh at the "gag".

This chapter leaned a bit too close to the realistic side that the "gag" didn't hit for a lot of people which is why there's this divided opinion. Nothing in this chapter could really be read as over the top actions. A gag can only work in a gag manga if it reads like a gag and I think it's fair to just acknowledge people didn't think it was funny.

I think this is the reason most people are put off by it. I assume most of us reading this are familiar with Mochi's works so the degeneracy isn't really the problem. It was the shift in tone that took people off guard. (Prob same reason why some people didn't enjoy the sudden shounen arc)

fuck me for thinking a manga was going to have a mature and sensible depiction of someone grappling with their sexuality, crazy how they ruined it in just 2 pages.
This .... is a comedy manga? I think you're looking in the wrong genre mate

So...you're saying she doesn't get a pass but a "pass"? Gotcha.

And it doesn't make the people complaining about Yamamura any less of hypocrites if they also just give Toudou a "pass" just because she's gone through some character growth.

Yamamura was introduced in this chapter. And it's not as if she's shown to be an outright horrible person. Again: are we being more critical of her because she's an adult? That's all well and good and in fact we should. But for the sake of fairness if Toudou can get a "pass" after serial drugging people is there a reason Yamamura can't? Even when Yamamura's intentions were less selfish in comparison to Toudou's?

You had a very specific qualifier that she gets a pass only because she's a teenager. I don't see anyone excusing Toudou's actions because she's a teenager, in fact, I don't see anyone excusing her drugging up her classmates at all

Merely a pedophile
is there a reason Yamamura can't?
If she stops acting inappropriately around minors and starts regretting her actions, then yeah, some might forgive her

If she was a pedophile she wouldnt let such an easy prey get away, she even implied this was a 1 time thing, she could have offered to "help" her out regularly. Also this was a 1st time offence as its a new character

I don't even believe that she gets a pass because she's a teenager. That's just what I assume others may be thinking. It's why I posed it as a question.

Look I'm not trying to excuse what Yamamura did to Ookado in her effort to help her. But maybe you should be fully cognizant of the term "pedophile" before you label people as such. Pedophilia refers to attraction to prepubescent children. Ookado is not a prepubescent child. You could say it's all semantics, but there's no denying that's its true definition.

Fair enough. I see someone genuinely trying to help a troubled student (albeit via questionable means) while you see an irredeemable person. I won't fight you on this so agree to disagree.

The nurse isn't a man, so the kiddy diddling is actually just a funny haha joke.

/s

Let's not pretend that a subject is only serious when it's written about seriously. People are perfectly reasonable in voicing their discomfort, and that's all anyone here has done. Mochi ain't getting cancelled by a handful of english speaking people on a corner of the internet finding a couple pages distasteful out of a manga they otherwise enjoy, so just relax and let people be unhappy for a minute. Take a deep breath, it will pass, there's no point in fighting over it.

Mochi isn’t get canceled by this, thats not the point.

But more than once I saw a scanlator dropping a manga because people wouldn’t shut up about how the manga was problematic and you are a terrible person if you like it. People need to stop treating manga like it’s a guideline for life. Get a life.
