| They could use video cameras and show proof of physical violence.. I wonder if people in Japan turn blind eye to that.. |

| Don't court cases to claim custody and whatnot cost a lot of money (money which Maki's mom probably doesn't really have)? Idk much about that so can't really say The legal action one is the only one I'm not so sure why. Could be a case of fear tbh that causes them not to pursue it or again with money, although I hope they do give a proper reasoning |
 'On-Hold' is another way for a completionist to say 'Dropped' |
He's a big fat juicy 'conflict creator' so my guess is they'll leave him in for a good 5 to 7 episodes while y'all watch the remainders in agony.. |
| The mother was once shown saying to the dude that she is filing for a restraining order, but it still haven't been granted and it is episode 6 already. |
She should not be shocked at this point lol
| Japan isn't the ideal country for women's rights. Most of their laws which favor women have been newly introduced and not everyone agrees with it. A woman, after getting divorced has to wait at least 100 days before she can remarry. Also, domestic abuse wasn't taken seriously until the 2000s. "In 2002, Japan passed a long-overdue law against domestic violence. This was the first time physical spousal violence was considered a crime—before, such incidents were considered private matters outsiders shouldn’t meddle with. It was also a given that men could treat their spouses in whatever way they wished. One victim of abuse reportedly told the Japan Times, “Once, a policeman went so far as to tell me that they cannot do anything until I die.” The law was revised in 2004, extending the definition of violence to include psychological abuse. Though the law doesn’t protect same-sex couples and people not in relationships (sibling abuse, for instance), it finally brought to light one of Japan’s darkest problems." They also introduced an anti-stalking law in 2000 which is only twenty years ago. Still do these laws prevent the real assholes from committing crimes? Absolutely not, they will find a way. Take for example, the woman, and even then he may only get a slap on the wrist. Not to mention that the police very often don't believe the victim and refuse to help. They will need CCTV evidence, etc. which is why some crimes aren't even taken seriously unless it's gone viral shared by netizens online. They're private people and don't like to bring attention to domestic issues. |

| Sometimes the system fails to protect victims. I saw recently a movie which is suppose to depict japan relatively realistically and the social workers ends up sending back a child to its parents, even though they knew the parents were hurting the kid. I was shocked. I know it was a fiction but I wondered if the message of the director was a "that's how it is in Japan". |

In many Asian countries physical punishment on kid seems to be acceptable act that people assume is ok. We got beaten a bunch by our teachers/ parents back when we were small. (teacher will hit you with a gigantic wood stick if you didn't hand in homework on time every single time, or doesn't score a B at least in test, I'm not even exaggerating) Idk what age is this anime take place, but if it's something like 2000s , then physical discipline from parents/ teachers tend to be norms accepted by society in Asian countries, so I doubt even Video Camera would hep. When people judge about why "x doesn't do y" in a real life setting, they have to consider what year does this show take place, what's the country they're in, and what's the norm expected by the society in that country. You can't just assume every issues/ problem is happened in 2019 in America and expect the characters to act like American/ deal with problems like American. (And let's face it, if it's in America, the trash dad probably would have possession of a gun too which makes the situation even more dangerous. Toma might even bring a gun to shoot his dad which then he'd be the guilty one) |

Also this anime doesn't particularly say anything about the time it takes place, making it even harder to figure out if anything can be done or not. |
