[@bobob9969]

The scene with Midori is what almost made me give up reading this. To this day, I'm convinced that scene, is Punpun getting sexually assaulted (It's clear he was coerced into it and not into it at all, and taken advantage of by Midori, an older woman. She doesn't stop even when he's clearly crying and distressed. ). I'm not sure if he was a minor or not, but he's barely an adult if he is one. But such a thing just came and went in his life, like a lot of other things. No karma, nothing. Especially for young punpun. Reality is like that for a lot of people. That was almost too much for me. I'm glad I continued reading, because as tragic as it is, Punpun is a well written manga.

[@jimmydeanismydadcharlieisf4119]

If anything its still rape as in the panels punpun starts crying as u said its so sad because the whole event changes punpun into someone his younger self wouldnt and couldn’t identify with, everything after the beginning of vol 3 is the decline in punpun as a person and his own personal downfall, turning to almost a couple rape and SA charges, then to a almost murder count it 3 times. Punpun is so sad because of what midori changed in him that day

[@ikimchi4753]

Fr!!! He definitely started to crack that day. I hated midori since then. I also hate how his uncle did nothing even after learning about ti. He was just “i forgave her” WHAT ABOUT THE TRAUMA PUNPUN GOT FROM IT

[@MissCyn666]

@@ikimchi4753 i think this could be a commentary on how society views sexual assault with a male victim and a female perpetrator. Where society assumes far too often that a man should enjoy any sex he can get, so he shouldnt complain about being raped. So the victim isnt taken seriously. Which is awful, and still happens in many cultures today.

[@gaminikokawalage7124]

@@ikimchi4753 I really wish they would've revisited that incident

[@selfabsorbedsponge7246]

@@ikimchi4753 Well I think that’s the thing however. Midori may have came clean about what she did to Punpun, but may not have worded it in a way that explicitly paints her as a rapist/sexual assaulter. People tend to have a way of deflecting negative traits associated with themselves to protect their image to both others and themselves. So for all Yuuichi knows, Punpun “may have just gotten lucky that day”, which is a very common male perspective to have.

[@MarcellusMaize]

Glad to see someone finally talk about that Midori scene. As much punpun content as there is on KZbin, it seems like no one ever wants to talk about that scene despite it being one of the major turning points for punpun as a character and the manga as a whole. Punpun is the first media I consumed that displayed a young man get sexually assaulted by a women and showed the affects of it. Fantastic video, deserves much more attention

[@vin8754]

I fucking hate that Midori got a happy ending with no repercussions whatsoever for what she did to him

[@MarcellusMaize]

@@vin8754 sadly that part was very realistic of how that usually goes in real life. Both men and women have a tendency of not sharing or reporting their assaults. But yeah poor punpun, it was really all downhill after that point.

[@capitatecab6049]

Invincible also showcased assault and its consequences on the individual

[@octabodemes]

As I was reading and finished this manga, in my mind, Midori went from "Aw, she is so sweet and I hope she and Yuichi can someday be happy" to "Hope she dies" Seriously, it almost made me feel unbearably hopeless that she ended up with everything she wanted but at the end the author was a true genius because that was awfully realistic. People like her who seem sweet, wholesome and like they could never hurt anyone can hide such a horrendous side. Calling what she did to Punpun "consensual" is far from the truth and it's even worse that she kept getting herself into his life when Punpun didn't want it. The fact she never reaped what she sowed was... damn. Many aspects about this manga are just beautifully tragic and can make you end up feeling just hollow.

[@komos3719]

Maybe I'm overly cynical but I think Yuichi is genuinely a piece of shit. I appreciate who he was for Punpun but overall, I'm disgusted with his need to seek out suspiciously younger women and his blase attitude to his initial girlfriend once she was "older"/"uglier." Although, I'm fully aware of how it reflects his fixation on the "beautiful end product." I'm also not exactly sympathetic with the fact that he cheated on Midori, it's an established pattern for him. And Midori assaulting Punpun as a manifestation of her loneliness is fucking awful, it's an incredibly upsetting upheaval of his youth. That scene broke my damn heart.

Part of the point with both him and Punpun is that they arent exactly the best people, but it doesnt mean theyre just totally irredeemable. Of course thats up to you but Yuichi didn't choose his disgusting interest, it takes him over, and the best he can do is ignore it or talk through it, which he tries. When you look at his actions, he still sucks ass, but to place all the impetus of his shittiness on desires he cant do anything about feels like missing the point a bit.

[@komos3719]

@@edwinbeta2806 Why do you take the presentation of his desires as an "unstoppable force" to be immutable law? And why do you think he can't do anything about it? What part of his actions did he lack choice in? I think the idea that it's something that "takes him over" is just an excuse to shirk responsibility for his thoughts and actions so I can't align myself with your perspective here.

[@kobe9063]

Yuichi may be the quickest example of a like-able character becoming despicable for me really quickly. What really seperates this story from most of what I’ve seen is that you’re stuck with these people, you have to understand they are capable of doing good things before things go bad. It’s just genuinely difficult to witness.

[@lanalex4826]

I don't really have a solid basis for my guess here, but I think the nameless girl was indeed being abused by her mother. All I have to go off of is how the mother responds to Yuichi's point blank accusation/ questioning of abusing her daughter, trying to steamroll past the topic by ignoring it and chattering away. I know "normal people would have done XYZ instead" is flawed logic, but I feel the mother's response is a) odd, and b) a deliberate decision by the mangaka (an in I think the oddness of the mother's response is something the author wants to express to the reader

[@ImJustStar]

one of the only videos I’ve seen analyzing this section of the manga. Once again, your analysis and perspective are very interesting and thought provoking. Midori and Yuichi are such broken characters. I wish Yuichi’s story was followed up more in the later volumes. I get that the story needed to go to other places but the little glimpses we see later on just makes me want more. Regarding Midori… She did a terrible and horrible thing to punpun and it’s almost impossible to look past. Even after her interaction at the cafe with punpun, she behaves like nothing has happened and treats punpun the same. Honestly, that might be what traumatized punpun the most. His fury, hate, and resentment toward Midori was most likely kept hidden away inside festering for years

[@lexaand]

It would be great to see Yuichi raising his son as a side story. I could only imagine how the two parents would act, but it would definitely make for some more interesting scenes. As for the cafe sex, it's hard to say if that damaged him more than Aiko. Regardless, it was definitely the final straw that sent him spiraling down. Hell of a ride, that's for sure. Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@ZeroFreak1]

Despite what he's done , I really liked Yuichi's character. He was heavily burdened by what happened in the past and he would always try to push away anyone trying to get close to him in the begining of the manga. Such a well written character and easily one of my favorites

[@scootie_scoot]

excellent analysis! Im not all the way through yet, but I wanted to comment on something. One of my favorite things about punpun is how morally gray all the characters are. So despite yuichi being a protagonist, I don't think he's completely in the right and the Young girl is in the wrong. Yuichi was selfish and gave into his desires of cheating on his girlfriend with a child, I feel that shouldn't go unnoticed. I suppose the legal age is 16 in some parts of Japan but not all parts, in any case he's well into adulthood while she is still in adolescence. If it was an older woman, I would buy the "faking abuse" and manipulation, but I truly believe the Young girl was a broken soul reaching out out of desperation. Yuichi was a grown man and he should know better, and he KNOWS he should have known better, and I think that nuance is fascinating.

[@wldnbsvxajyb6401]

I'm glad that there's at least someone talking about this. That whole part didn't sit right with me and the (male) readers' reactions to it just confirmed the problem. During the whole arc, the girl is portrayed as a villain, while the author does everything to try to make you sympathize with the uncle. It was so disgusting how op (like many others in discussions I've read about it) continuously tried to justify it by bringing up that it's legal in japan or how it's normal for Yuichi to be swayed by beauty. No well adjusted adult should EVER think it's okay for a grown man to want to sleep with a 16 year old HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT. It reminds me of how in the movie adaptations of Lolita, the whole narrative, instead of showing the depravity of Humbert, portrays him as the victim, and Dolores as the evil manipulator, defeating the whole point of the book. I've been looking for interpretations of and discourse about this part of the manga in particular and it's so terrifying that the (mostly male) audience doesn't see any problem with it. (You can also notice the stark difference between the way this and Midori and Punpun's relationship is handled and interpreted but that's another discussion)

[@mckinleyknight1775]

@@wldnbsvxajyb6401 I think the author does try to make you sympathise with Yuuichi but I'd say he makes it very clear he was fucked up through Yuuichi's own dialogue and self hatred!

[@wldnbsvxajyb6401]

@@mckinleyknight1775 You're right, Yuuichi is shown to feel remorse afterwards, but I think the concept of statutory rape should never even be approached from the "the child an evil manipulator and the adult is the real victim" standpoint in the first place. it's really harmful to actual victims. (Also I looked it up and in Tokyo, where it happened the age of consent is 18, so there's really no excuse)

[@scootie_scoot]

@@wldnbsvxajyb6401 I also find it weird that people misconstrue the wrongness of yuichis actions. The whole point is that he knows what he did is fucked up, and can’t let go of that guilt.

With whether or not Yuichi would have went along with that daughter's plan of killing her mother, I would like to think he wouldn't. Or at least, try to find out the truth rather than blindly doing it like Washio in the middle of the pottery class. Like I see him asking the mother if she really does tie her daughter up and then going for the kill when the mother avoids the question too many times (which is very suspicious and points to the conclusion that she does do it). Though we wouldn't know what would have happened.

[@FusionRey]

First of all I want to thank you for introducing me to this series with your videos. I saw he first half of your general series breakdown and decided that I need to read the whole thing before I go any further, and I'm glad I did! Second, I want to talk about the scene between Midor and Punpun, because that easily had the biggest impact on me during my entire readthrough. The only way I can describe myself during that scene is borderline catatonic. The suddenness of it froze my blood. It dropped my emotions to a state I haven’t felt in a long time. I felt the broken vulnerability and trauma. I was wrecked. I wanted to go on, but I also felt absolutely sick to my core. I thought, “Surely, something will happen from this! We’ll see Punpun address this trauma and get over it! We’ll see Midori as the rapist she is!” But… That’s not what happened. Midori faces no consequences. And, although he doesn’t realize the cause, Punpun is terribly affected in all of his actions with his sex life and how he treats girls afterwards. The way he seems to desperately seek sex and approval from the girls around him after that. How he disregards the feelings of the other girls. How he almost commits sexual assault multiple times. How he feels a deep emptiness and sadness from/after his interactions with other women. And much more. In my opinion, this stemming from this sexual assault trauma commited to him by Midori. Although I was never sexually assaulted by someone in my life, I do have trauma related to sexuality, and PunPun reminds me all to much of how deep and seemingly unnoticable those scars are. And how those scars will drive you to possibly hurt others as well as yourself… But Midori, Punpun, and Yuuichi don’t realize that this event has incredibly deep consequences leading to his future actions. It still shakes me, and as many others have said, I almost stopped reading. It was almost a feeling close to “secondary trauma” as I read it. I think the Manga is brilliant in this portrayal though, as it feels almost unbearably real in how this sort of F to M sexual assault is actually dealt with in real life, and its consequences… That said, it feels like it could easily go over a lot of readers heads who aren’t reading close enough, or who have little to no knowledge on sexual trauma such as this (how its perpetrated and the affects it can have on someone’s future). Anyways, thanks again for introducing me to this series! I'll be watching your other videos about it now, lol

Even though the good things would be meaningless too, they feel good so why not indulge! That's all I need, I've realized.

Tl;dr: If only the Onodera family knew about "positive nihilism." Or Buddhism. Ok I'll stop spamming, I just agree very very much

Reading this manga was a ride. Glad i didn't stop at any point. Took almost 3 days to finish though, full of lessons and trainwrecks of reality. As good and as bad as Fire Punch

Jeez I really liked midori until that stupid point, what the hell was wrong with her 😭😭

[@IMMA_MINER]

Shes perfect

[@gugugugu3371]

Yeah it felt like such a betrayal. She and Yuichi were the only safe persons in Punpun's life, and she broke this bond out of nowhere by forcing him to have sex with her, ruining Punpun's life even further.

[@Johnnys_Manager]

i believe she did it because yuuichi disappeared for a long time and cheated on her, which can take a huge toll on someone who literally stayed and wanted to change him despite his character and past (something that will repel a lot of people). she herself is already quite a feeble person and acted out of vulnerability because she simply desired a connection to make up for the loss and the only thing that could give her that was forcing it out of another person who wouldn’t fight back, which sadly had to be punpun. i hope nobody thinks i’m excusing it, simply because i’m giving a reason. but it’s just an explanation to build more understanding of the situation and i think that adds more depth to the story
