So, I've been re-reading this for a few days now, and am currently at ch37 page 6. In the mere 6 pages of that chapter that I've read, I have compared the relationship between the clubs as something along the lines of Roman politics in the late republic. I mean, think about it: the big clubs are the more powerful ones, they're basically the establishment; this would make the small clubs like commoners who feel mistreated. When it comes to stuco elections, they would back different candidates, who, based on their promises and opinions, could, if we continue the comparison with Roman politics, would basically make a (mostly) status quo faction and a "reformist" faction. Tatsumi wass basically just following the establishment, while Torayama was hoping to ride a populist wave to the presidential position. Now we all know how it ended, which is why the comparison with the late Roman Republic almost immediately starts collapsing due to unusability, but it struck me as interesting during this re-reading, and I just had to make a remark of that before the rest of the chapter (or even further, the rest of their arc) could distract me or make me forget or just make me consider such comparison falling on me as too embarrassing for me to share.
