In case anyone's curious, the manga is still called Muramata-san's secret and is maybe a series?
I love this goofy couple.
This mangaka is real good; not only do they make stuff that seems to have a wide appeal, they have genuinely engaging and fun characters.

lmao so the last main chapter of straightforward boyfriend/girlfriend was a pretty typical ridiculous morals committee testing chapter where they were forced to do some pretty hosed up things to prove their honesty or whatever.

So, in sticking with the straightforwardness of the series, this followup chapter deals with the morals committee chairman in a suitable manner

I stopped reading that part way through the first chapter because I didn't like anything about it, but this latest bit I just kind of feel compelled to read with a look on my face like when someone hears Death Grips for the first time.

It gets annoying how these fictional student councils have authority to get people into situations like this so that look of utter contempt was cathartic as gently caress. My only regret is that this guy wasn't also put through invasive trials to prove some nonsense point.

We can start discussing MaoMao here? I haven't been following the seinen thread since it spawned a pages long dumpster fire over whether or not she's a Mary Sue.

It's not as farfetched when Japan's Idol culture is a very real thing.

Recent events in Saotome have been a tough read in that context. (I know that context is very much implied in Saotome itself)

Does the characters discussing how the previous chapter was real creepy and unnecessary really change much about the fact the previous chapter was creepy and unnecessary?

The creepiness framed the affirming of a positive, loving, responsible, consensual sexual relationship among a young unwed couple, and portrayed some real, outdated prejudices toward such a thing. Then that healthy relationship is what exposes how creepy and gross the people who want to enforce the construct really are.

This manga is a good forest made up of loud, dumb trees.

Saotome is a different take since it's an actual public icon with the associated pressures that come from people trying to maintain an image for her. This was more the anime contrivances of shoving people in lockers and compelling them to wear swim suits to seduce a person while everyone watches. I don't know if the student council in actual japan has that kind of pull in real life.

some student councils in japan do have more authority than seems reasonable. i think it's a relic of the 60's student protests? of course, it's not nearly as ubiquitous and exaggerated as anime portrays it.

I was thinking more of the panel where the two dorks talk about her like she's their personal incel Madonna. It's the same concept of collective ownership of a woman's "virtue" that's really fueling their gross crusade to the point of using her sexuality as a weapon against the man who dares to treat her like an equal.
