You know, putting aside the abuse aspect, I would like to see more stories where the aggressive/assertive younger girl comes on too strong and gets turned down flat, making her reevaluate her approach.

Also, I think a lot of readers are actually males (I don't know how many, but maybe a bit more than 50%? maybe someone has statistics).

I don't have a link handy but someone actually did a survey last year on the site's demographics and if I recall correctly it was close to 50-50 but weighted more to women than men.

Also, abuse or no abuse, chapter 8 made me intensely dislike the middle schooler. I guess I get ticked off by people being/trying to be controlling of others.

I feel the same way. Although, in my case I disliked the girl's attitude since the very beginning.

I think, impulse. She wasn't thinking of anything except that the teacher is hers and no one has the right to lay their hands on the teacher. Simply put, jealousy and possessiveness at work.

That girl is so sinister I'm taking this as a horror story.

If you're attracted to someone, thats just how it is. Nobody's fault really. I mean if you find it creepy then you find it creepy, not your fault either lol. I was jus sayin 8P.

I think I don't like this middle schooler, she seems like one of those anoying teenagers who likes to tease adults... As a 29's teacher, I would just find a way to get her out of my way

Her behavior is a cry for help and instead of trying to understand what's going on you would just get rid of her ? You sound like a great teacher smh.

And just how you think I should act, aside contact her parents somehow and say that their kid needs psychological treatment? If they were impossible to contact then I would ask school to please arrange some professional who could deal with that kind of problem, I'm not psychologist and even so I already have to deal with my student's daily sufferings and requests for attention, and I wouldn't adimit such a disrespectful treatment of any of them.

Well, if you detect something may be wrong with a teen behavior, as a teacher you'd try to get to the bottom of it first, by talking to them and if you think the kid may be at risk, you'd signal them to child protective services so that it triggers an inquiry. So, the professionals there will eventually act.

Of course in some cases, they are too late or do too little (so many stories of abused children, even though "everyone knew" something was wrong), but that's no reason to turn a blind eye and hope someone else will take charge.

Well, you may be right, I would do something like that too, but I still don't see why I shoul let her treat me like that. Helping someone doesn't mean you have to let them interfere in your life.

You know, reading these two chapters I involuntarily felt my heart sink. I just can't root for Aki yet. I'll wait until her full circumstances are revealed to pass any sort of concrete judgement, but her character at present just repulses me.

I certainly think chapter 10 was interesting - seeing the teacher evaluate herself in the wake of realizing her feelings was pretty well-written - but that middle schooler is just such a little shit kid. It's the classic yuri situation where I cannot possibly understand how you could ever hold romantic feelings towards someone like that.

The teacher's both gay and hopelessly lonely. It seems pretty plausible that this is the first time a girl's overtly shown interest in her. It's not a great reason to fall in love with someone, especially under the circumstances, but I can buy it.

I tend to dislike student x teacher manga. I haven't read a single one i thought was actually good. still, i'll give it a chance.

But when i find that i'm hoping for a het ending with the dude (after chp 9) because the girl is so repulsive a character, something has gone very wrong. Yeah, we don't know her backstory and maybe abuse but seeing how she is, why would anyone (readers) care to find out?

Well, I've just read the raw of chapter 12 and the cousin is definitely abusing her, I'm not 100% sure it's sexual abuse since my Japanese isn't exactly great but it seems extremely likely.

It isn't clear from the text in chapter 12 either. Only that it's some form of abuse. Maybe just to force her to do better at school. I'll try hoping for that until something worse is proven... Maybe chapter 13 will finally give answers. Another 2 to 4 months, I guess.

there's no sign of physical abuse, so it must've been sexual abuse then.

I bet the cousin must've already slide his dick or at least slide smthn inside her , it's too obvious guys.

we don't have to wait for any confirmation again, idk how clear the author could've implied it without flat out sayin, "madarame has been sexually abused by his cousin all this time"

While it was a nice gesture to try and lend the umbrella, by the time sensei gave it to her and exchanged those few pleasantries, both of them were already soaked. What was the point...

Symbolism! Even if it's late, it's a kind gesture. Also, in order to not get even more soaked, probably.

Huh, that makes a lot of sense.

Also, I love your avatar! What's it from?
