Something tells me that these guys are not long for this world. I know they want us to expect Kuzuhana to come back and throw down, but, sticking to the nonviolent theme, I hope that Stuco Prez shows up and busts them for the creep shots.

Either that or Saotome finally learns how to throw hands.

Nah, I hope they get their asses handed to them. A stern talking to would not be satisfying imo

I agree that would be nice. They didn't feel like your typical delinquents, the pictures felt much ickier and clearly cross into illegal acts.

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.
