I'm not even quite sure what the point of all of that was supposed to be, or is going to be. Somehow both the little shits and their bully backups win and in winning lose? Except that they don't lose in any meaningful way, shape or form - it's more like the author just arbitrarily assigned that interpretation to them for no sensible reason.
And really, Saotome's scene wasn't much better. It didn't feel like an organic scene - more like the author just running him through a bunch of plot checkpoints. Saotome busting in on girls changing - check. Somebody commenting for the 800th time that he doesn't notice those sorts of things when he's thinking about fashion - check. Saotome saying something that embarrasses Hanako - check. Hanako not saying anything and Saotome not noticing - check.
Ah well... I'll be back next week anyway.
Yeah that sucked. They're still getting away with their incredibly gross behaviour. What Ushigome did was painted as a good thing, but the entire thing felt very humiliating. It wasn't a 'gotcha!' moment at all.
