Don't Toy With Me, Miss Nagatoro
Do you think there's enough bullying in this season?
| We're 3 episodes in and we have yet to see any real bullying... There's only some soft teasing, akin to what is done in Takagi-san I really liked season 1 because Nagatoro would be quite rough with her bullying, while senpai would get really upset and even cry, but so far in this season we're just back to the generic "timid guy/teasing girl" trope. Nagatoro is just too soft on senpai, and senpai is getting too comfortable around her. I wish we could see Nagatoro be a bit meaner, and make senpai cry, even if she regrets it afterwards. What do you think? |
Saanvii said: The way I see it, her bullying was a way of hiding her feelings/embarrassment. That's just my opinion, but if you agree with me, and if she's developing feelings for senpai, shouldn't she be even meaner with him? I guess as the story progresses Senpai warms up to Nagatoro's way of bullying and misses it when she's not around. Similarly Nagatoro has become soft and has started developing feelings for her Senpai.. naturally the bullying has lessened. |
| I really like that it became more wholesome. I enjoyed first season a lot, but its only natural that they would explore their relationship more in the second. Imo of course. |

| Nobody ever said there is bulling in this show. The "bulling" came from mistranslation of the title. We have teasing at most. |

Piromysl said: I think it was bullying, at least for the first few episodes of season 1. She was being repeatedly mean with senpai, who was a stranger at the time, and senpai clearly wasn't enjoying it... That's not teasing, that's bullying. And I really appreciated that about those episodes. Now don't get me wrong, I also like the wholesomeness of the show, but the bullying was what made it stand out for me. Nobody ever said there is bulling in this show. The "bulling" came from mistranslation of the title. We have teasing at most. But come on. In season 1 senpai was crying, he was wearing a dog collar, he was being stepped on by 3 JK at a time... Where's all that in season 2? |
| If you're a fan of the bullying in this show, prepare to be even more disappointed going forward. |
| I think this season isn't as good as the first, precisely because of this. The first season had development, it went from legit bullying to romance "pretend" bullying. Now it's just gonna stay "pretend bullying" and repeat the same trope every episode. Still very enjoyable though |
| Nino is the objectively superior one, don't @ me |
| Since when Nagatoro was about bullying? If you mean when Nagatoro treated senpai more harshly that was only the first couple of episodes, you won't see more of that. |
| Her early bullying was always overexaggerated to frame her as a sadist, when in reality she isn't anywhere near as "tough" as you're led to believe, as we witness her get easily embarrassed any time the gag/teasing gets flipped back onto her. From what I recall of the manga you shouldn't expect to see any more bullying whatsoever by this point in the story, not that there's been any since probably midway through the first season. |
| If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that. |
| I honestly think they should have changed the first few episodes to tone down the “bullying”, as it’s really not in character with the rest of the manga at all where it’s all just playful teasing and banter. Either they kept the early episodes the same to remain true to the source material or they wanted to capitalise on the controversy to help the ratings. Either way, too many people seem to have the wrong idea about the show because of those early episodes, and that’s a shame, especially in the case of people who couldn’t watch it because they thought it was a show about bullying. |
| It is part of the progress of history. I'm in the final episodes and there's almost no Bullying. I totally agree with this significant reduction, as it allows the feelings of both to develop better. |
  MALoween candies:         |
| The teasing in this one was lighter than in the first season, which is why I probably still prefer the first season a tiny bit more. But I don't think there wasn't enough of it at all. |
