Eh, Lisa seems like the kind who'll keep this in her back pocket so Max doesn't cross her or fail to pay his bar tab.

So Suzy's embarrassing secret is her last name, is what I got from that exchange. Who is embarrassing enough that the threat of having a relation revealed could serve as blackmail material?

Nah Suzy's dark secret is that she doesn't actually have a masters in Journalism. No one can know! Her career is at stake!

It's not her last name per se, but I think she's related to a teacher or something and is too embarrassed to admit it.

Suzy Spender.

He could easily be her older brother. There's only a fourteen-year difference.

Niece would also work, although now I'm trying to remember if we ever learned anything about Spender's family.

What's the evidence that he's married, again? Can't remember.

Paper lunch bag with his name on it and what might have been a person in the background of a shot of the inside of his house, if I recall correctly. Not going to bother looking up evidence though, someone else can do that.

More like she'll have Max in her pocket. If Violet drinks are really "free" why was she introduced as needing stars so much?

She got flustered when it was pointed out that she chose to sit at the front of the class, I think the star thing was a cover up and she just earnestly enjoys school/the class

Considering Zarei is currently living in her parent's basement and she's basically a female Spender, he could still be living at home with his mom.

Well, you aren't anime unless you've only got a mom and vague hints that your dad may be the big bad.

Clearly, this means that Spender's dad is Nightmare Knight.

I'm sorry, but Nate Murnite is like 13 years younger than Spender.

This has been said before but only now is it honestly starting to wear on me:

The fact that nearly every page is some kind of competition to see who can be the Sassiest and Wittiest of them all is getting a little old. I don't want to say that the characters don't have distinct voices anymore, because we aren't that far gone, but I can see it going in that direction.

Only a couple of characters try to out sass and out witty everyone, it's just one of them is a main character. Right now Max is engaged in a sass and wit battle with a sassperior and losing. Usually it's just Max being sarcastic while people treat him as background noise. That's his thing.

On its own, I could see it that way, but after Lisa's thumbs down and statement to Suzie to hold onto the blackmail until given the okay, if looks to me like the sympathetic pat on the shoulder Violet is giving is coming from someone who's been there.

Max isn't really engaged in anything right now. It really feels like there's no reason for him to even be there.

I suppose what I'm trying to get at isn't mere sass. From the unique brand of jokey bully wordplay of Johnny's gang to Max's Endless Sass Whitenoise, the characters are starting to feel like Joke Vectors moreso than characters.

he got a note telling him to come here, and he figured whoever it was (he thought Lisa) would give him info on hijack/whatever/homework tips

but probably whoever it is will be the most cryptic and sassy character yet
