eighty six season 3
Shoya starts to
ignore those around him (imagining them with a large blue X across their face). Upon meeting her in high school, he eventually apologizes to Shoko, becoming fluent in sign language specifically to do so, and begins to spend time with her. Shoya feels like he has not been punished enough for bullying Shoko and often wishes he could have stopped his younger self. He also feels resigned to the fact that he will never be able to have friends again. As the series progresses, Shoya and Shoko reconnect with their former classmates, in the process making amends with them and facing the lingering effects from each other's past. Shoko Nishimiya (西宮 硝子, Nishimiya Shōko) The other main character, Shoko, is a deaf girl who is bullied by Shoya in elementary school to the point of needing to transfer. Years later, Shoya searches for her to apologize. Although Shoko holds a bit of resentment towards him, she accepts his apology and starts to spend time with him. She almost never gets angry with her attackers and even smiles at them; though some characters, in particular Ueno, get
very annoyed by this and
accuse her of faking them. She often blames herself for being bullied or thinks she is a burden to others, leading to depressive or suicidal mindsets, and struggles with forgiving herself. After a while, Shoko falls in love with Shoya and, at one point, tries to declare this.
Ippo began to leave the house, believing that nothing good can come of him staying. Mashiba went outside with Ippo and asked him if he really has no
regrets about boxing, noting how he still wears the weight straps and continuing his roadwork, making him no different than when he was active. Ippo explained that he is so used to wearing weight straps that he can't stop wearing them, and that he only is doing roadwork to run with his students. Mashiba asked again if he has any regrets, and Ippo quickly replied he doesn't. Mashiba mentioned that it is fine if that is how he feels, but Miyata won't accept it, asking if he is really okay not fighting him. Mashiba added that Miyata, who was a top prospect is now just wandering like a zombie, and
wondered if deep down Ippo has regrets, which is why neither one of them can move on.
His fears of the outside world change when Roxy starts training him and takes him through a ride across the town which changes the protagonist's
point of view of how
society works. The scholar mentions Roxy's character faces a similar arc due to her differences from her people. [108] HITC found the anime properly followed the novel's narrative, most importantly Rudeus' coming-of-age story, which appealed to the audience. [109] Comic Book Resources saw the focus on Rudeus' emotions as what marks the series a major departure from other isekai storylines. [110] The early episodes of the second season earned controversial responses due to the more miserable portrayal of Rudeus while highlighting a decrease in the animation values. [111][112] Positive response focused on how more depth was given to Rudeus as he was now alone and tried interacting with new characters. [113][114] The Japanese Blu-rays often appeared in Oricon charts. [115][116][117][118] Controversies[edit] This article's "criticism" or "controversy" section may compromise the article's neutrality.

(January 2024) Aisha Greyrat's after-story[edit] One of the web novel short stories from the after-story collection Redundant Reincarnation, titled "The Moment Aisha Greyrat Stopped Being a Maid", sparked a lot of controversy among its Japanese readers. [clarification needed] In response, the author had initially planned to make some revisions, but figured it would not be good enough, and after receiving a notice from Shōsetsuka ni Narō management that it violated their terms of service, on February 24, 2016, the author announced that he had decided to scrap the short story altogether and would write a remake in the future.
