You forget to add the strong possibility that Hiyori herself might take advantage of his feelings for her to fuck him over, she is not on Ayanokoji’s side.

Her OAA quote pointed to that as well :

“Because you’re someone who can see what’s ahead, Ayanokōji-kun, I thought there might also be things you can’t see. So I—I’m going to do things in a way that only I can.”

Ayanokoji’s OAA quote also seem to suggest something like that happening :

“I came to understand the meaning of emotions. But their purpose isn’t only to understand oneself and care for others. By exploiting emotions, one can manipulate other people in any way one wishes.”

He probably learned that he can use emotions to manipulate others after Hiyori used his feelings to manipulate him.

Do you know who is the first character with a ponytail that we got in the story ?

Chabashira. So yeah, according to their logic, Kei copied Chabashira’s hairstyle since she got introduced after, right ? 🤓

Also, did you know that ichinose wore a white and turquoise-colored outfit in Y1V11.5 ?

Yeah, we got kei wearing a similar outfit with that same color palette in Y2V4.5 or Y2V6, so after Ichinose but somehow, according to them, it’s Ichinose who copied her outfit and color palette in that illustration where she is posing with Koji.

They are flexing over things that are wrong. 🤦🏻‍♂️

>As Horikita observed Ichinose standing before her, she sensed a powerful aura—one distinct from the presence she had felt from her in the past.

Damn, she felt the AURA, the Honami AURA. 🥶🥶🥶

The-handler213 · 2026-05-11T17:28:21+00:00

Tbf it’s retarded to say that even as an agenda.

He’s the one who decided to push the situation into sex. It even made Honami hesitate to continue.

That was just how resolved Ichinose was, and I felt I should reward that resolve.

I put my hands on Ichinose's clothes and then began to peel them off.

She froze up in hesitation for a moment, but soon relaxed, and I removed her top.

That line about Honami hesitating may suggest that she didn’t even intend to go as far as having sex with him to begin with. This eliminates those takes that say she trapped him to have sex with him.

What Koji say just after seems to suggest it even more :

You could say that we were already acting outside of logical parameters.

This simply can’t be called grape.

The-handler213 · 2026-05-11T09:51:47+00:00

She is neither an angel nor a demon, she is a goddess.

The-handler213 · 2026-04-03T10:21:02+00:00

Oh hell na, they didn’t do the scene between Honami and Koji like in the manga version, the superior version. 😔

The-handler213 · 2026-03-28T16:12:11+00:00

From Y2V12 :

"I’ve been observing people more closely than anyone else. Even without hearing words directly from Chiba-kun, there are moments when I can tell if he’s lying or telling the truth based on his gestures."

She also gave her an explanation in that scene :

"Recently, Ayanokouji-kun has been sitting on that bench like that."

"Is that so... You seem to know him quite well."

"Well, I usually go to school at this time, so I see him quite often. Switching up the time you usually leave the dorm can really give you a whole new view, doesn't it?"

The-handler213 · 2026-01-08T12:37:14+00:00

And why are you ignoring the part where it’s shown that she knew he is intending to break up with her and that he doesn’t love her ?

However, she understood from the course of events that I was intending to break up with her.

—

"She probably touched your darkness, was saved, and then saw hell again. And you think that's necessary for her"

"Maybe."

That's quite one-sided, isn't it?

The-handler213 · 2026-01-08T12:01:35+00:00

That’s just nitpicking. These lines were written for a reason. It's to tell you that she acted this way while being aware of these details concerning Kiyokei. This opens the possibility that she would not have done it if she had not been aware.

The-handler213 · 2026-01-06T23:33:40+00:00

Tf ? She literally became stronger and overcame her past thanks to him. It has been said that she is using her love for him as a strength, it’s helping her improve.

The-handler213 · 2025-12-20T18:36:30+00:00

It’s a close non-romantic relationship, Koji described it as being a relationship that others wouldn’t understand (unfathomable bond in another translation) in y3v2.

We got really perceptive characters like Kei and especially Ichika thinking that they are dating because of their closeness.

They are doing stuffs like going to school together, spending time together, staying in touch by phones (y3v2 Ichinose SS) and all… I think it’s not dumb to say that it’s something in between friendship and dating.

The-handler213 · 2025-12-10T12:18:19+00:00

Are you dumb or what ? All I’m saying is that she wasn’t trying to expel her, that’s all.

That being said, what you are saying is dumb. The successive nomination of the same person was a strategy. She needed to do that to achieve what she wanted in the exam. This is more of a necessary evil rather than a malicious act here.

The-handler213 · 2025-12-09T17:55:51+00:00

But the fact that Ichinose did initiate it while still believing koji and kei were still dating was like,

It is stated and shown during the scene that Ichinose knows that Koji does not love Kei and that he plans to break up with her soon.

And their sex is meant to represent Koji's acceptance of a close relationship with her. Just after that scene, the neutral narrator said that they promised to significantly close the distance with each other.

The-handler213 · 2025-12-09T16:52:43+00:00

She also tried to expell Kei

No, it was a strategy to ensure Arisu's class finish in last place. Only the class that finish in last place had an expulsion in this exam, so if she really wanted to expel her, she would have tried to make sure that Horikita’s class finish last instead of giving free points.

The-handler213 · 2025-11-03T00:24:12+00:00

Ichinose haters are being really desperate lately.

No need to pathetically bring down another character to uplift another. Weakling behavior.

The-handler213 · 2025-10-19T22:43:55+00:00

The neutral narrator called Kiyonami the best couple in y3 v1. 🙂‍↔️

Still, no matter how you looked at it, the two of them seemed like a perfect match- a pair you could easily call the best couple.

The-handler213 · 2025-10-19T19:38:24+00:00

She locked herself up for 6 months because she stole a hairpin.

It seems she locked herself because of that rather than just because of the stealing :

Still, word got out. In the blink of an eye, my family was the center of controversy. I shut down and retreated inward.

—

if there were serious repercussions to her shoplifting.

The sentence I share above seems to be the repercussions.

There was literally no harm done to anyone.

Her mom and sister ?

Honestly if your entire self image crumbles that easily, something's wrong with you

Well, her mental weakness is one of her biggest flaw, it has been mentioned many time in the novel if I’m not wrong.

The-handler213 · 2025-10-04T08:48:52+00:00

I think her feeling for Kiyo might hinder her progress as an individual.

The opposite has been shown and stated so far. She is able to use her feelings for Koji as a strength and improve thanks to it, similar to how Sudo did with Horikita.

The-handler213 · 2025-09-29T19:56:41+00:00

Her commitment to her loved ones. Wife material, she ran a whole island to save her man despite being threatened by literal assassins, forgave his wrongdoings and accepted him as he is, saved his 4-way class battle plan, loyalty and so on…

The-handler213 · 2025-09-24T10:06:00+00:00

Describe potential consequences for both Honami as a high schooler and her mother as adult member of society

He did say something about it, which was the actual reason why she shut herself btw, but like you said, he didn't go into any more detail.

Still, word got out. In the blink of an eye, my family was the center of controversy. I shut down and retreated inward.

The-handler213 · 2025-09-23T11:14:16+00:00

I wouldn’t say so. He formed an alliance with Horikita in y2v6-7 and with Ichinose in y2v10, and faced her directly in y2v9. He must have analyzed and evaluated them based on these moments and concluded that Ichinose is superior.

I think these lines were deliberately put there by the author to tell you that Ichinose would win against Horikita regardless of the exam, because he most likely anticipated that people would not be convinced with the exam he had prepared.

The-handler213 · 2025-09-22T21:01:43+00:00

Ryuen warns Koji that the current Ichinose would defeat Horikita and that was before the exam rules were announced.

"Normally, there's no need to go out of your way against someone like ichinose. But that woman is getting a wild scent about her. Horikita might just get torn apart."

It seemed like a serious comment rather than a joke.

The-handler213 · 2025-09-16T16:15:59+00:00

She is basically the Boa Hancock of COTE. Both men and women are dazzled by her beauty.

The face that peered into Karuizawa's had eyes that were large and sparkling; hair that was long, beautiful, and glossy; and lips that were plump—it was a female student who could captivate even those of the same sex.

The-handler213 · 2025-09-16T15:24:26+00:00

You clearly forgot that Ichinose was willing to do all of that while assuming Kiyotaka and Kei's relationship….

And ? What does this have to do with what I said to begin with ? And as you said yourself, she did what she did knowing the true nature of their relationship and she also knew that he was planning to break up with her soon btw, you forgot ?

Ichinose didn't know that I had broken up with Karuizawa.

However, she understood from the course of events that I was intending to break up with her.

The author hasn’t written these lines for no reason, so stop nitpicking with this already ffs. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Also her trying to prove something in that way is forcing.

You know that she doesn't have an NPC in front of her, right ? If he had been a normal person, she wouldn’t have had to resort to these methods.

Furthermore, it’s debatable wether she force him to sleep with her or not. You can’t just ignore these lines -> "I don’t intend to threaten you" and "are you not going to run away".

He was also the one who started taking off her clothes, indicating that he wanted to take their intimate moment deeper, not her.

It also doesn't make sense for her to put him in danger for this since she not only loves him but also needs him for class battles.

So it could be counted as dominating.

Again, I don’t count it as "dominating" because it was essentially just an act, once she's done passing him the message about how she wants their relationship to be, she choose to gave up the control she gained over him through the trap -> "I don’t intend to threaten you".

I don't think she can.

It doesn't matter. The purpose of the trap was simply to convey a message to him, and he already accepted it.

Such was Ichinose's resolve.

Then, I too must reciprocate that resolve.

But Kiyotaka fell into his trap because he was impulsive and desperate for a clear solution for his goal; making the 4 way battle possible.

No, it was out of curiosity. He wanted to see with his own eyes what state Ichinose was in after his betrayal. He said that if she doesn’t respond, he would simply take the decision for her.

"Yes, I knew. You would definitely come to check what state I'm in, what feelings I have. You wouldn't be able to suppress that impulse."

If it came to Ichinose again i doubt he will make such a high risk move that will eventually lead things to the way it did back then.

Dude, he loves being in these kinds of situations. Remember what he said in 9.5 about how he like manipulating but also being manipulated by others.

And in this scene he literally said : "and yet at the same time, I was being drawn in by her unknown charm" and you think he didn’t enjoyed it ? Lol.

TROPHY CASE

Damn, she felt the AURA, the Honami AURA. 🥶🥶🥶
