Okay, this is legitimately starting to tick me off. They feel guilty for exposing a sexual predator. Just because you were the honey trap does not mean you were in the wrong. He tried to rape a girl, and you put yourself in that situation to reveal to the world what kind of person he really is. There is no need to feel guilt. You are a hero. The fact that this manga is suggesting that these kids are in the wrong for what they did enrages me.

The same principle applies to the chapter where the girl felt guilty for outing the cheater. He got what he deserved. I don't like that this manga makes it seem like justice (because that's what it is) is wrong.
I can't believe believe there are people who actually disagree with this. Granted, I know one of the downvotes is from the person who went through my profile and downvoted everything because they felt like being petty.
That part of the manga really gave me a pause. When i read him saying that they are about to ruin someone life, as if what they were doing was something horrible. I was like 'huh, the guy deserves it and much worse'. Based on the way he went about the attack, it is obvious that it wasn't his first time nor would it be his last time sexually abusing someone. He isolated her, made her feel dependent on him and when she was at a low point he attacked her. (thank god she fought back) And the notion that they should feel guilty for helping put someone like that behind bars is just ridiculous.
props for the book: yay, for being one of the few manga where a sexual abuser goes to jail and the victim doesn't get blame for being attacked.
While I think what they did was definitely not wrong I do see where the author was coming from. I think the idea was that no matter how bad a person or how bad the things that person has done is, doing something he should not be thought of as good. Justifyed maybe, but never good.
I also interpreted her crying not as being over feeling bad about what they did to the teacher, but belated crying over the trauma of having to let herself be molested and almost being raped.
Hopefully
Wait, that came out weird
I understand how you feel, but these are a bunch of teens lol. Even if they did do the right thing, for them, it felt underhanded. Probably when they grow up, they will understand they did the right thing.
I hate Sakura so much! If I had a little sister, and my friend treated her like that, there'd be hell to pay!
The bonus chapter was great, though. Anyone know similar stories? Anyway, poor brother. Give him his own story!
Exactly
The bonus pages ruined it for me. I like my fluff. Why you gotta go and tell me it's not real? lol
I am LOVING this. The denseness of the male MC is a bit infuriating, but it's amazing. I can relate to these scenarios so much. Social awkwardness, not understanding societal cues, getting lost all of the time. If there is a spirit animal equivalent for manga, this is mine. This is my spirit-manga.
Nicest character in this whole damn series.

LOL so true XD
Compare the art from beginning to end. Amazing! I love seeing an artist's work improve and evolve over time.
The only thing I find extremely weird about this is that older women are easily attracted to him. I mean, I get that he's an ikemen, but the guy's only fifteen.
I also really want a lesbian to show up and be like, "I am immune to your powers." Though Miho was told she should be with men instead, and that upset me. Japan really has a long way to go when it comes to accepting homosexuality. Some people think with all the BL that comes out of Japan it means that a lot people there are accepting of it, but it's really not true.
I doubt perceptions of lesbians was the thought going through Ranmaru's head when he told her to be with guys. He just wanted her to stop going after his own girl.
I am going to be a totally rude girl here, and say I wish more girls liked each other. Because then maybe I'd get nice guy some day . . . . well, he doesn't have to be that nice, but at least not rotten to the core would be fine too.
I wasn't talking about Ranmaru. I was talking about Momoko. I realize she didn't want to be pursued, but what she said was homophobic.
I also wish more girls liked girls because then I might have a girlfriend, lol.
