Her Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Her Close To Being Pure Evil?[]
In General[]
- Despite the comedic nature of the series, she darkens the tone and anything comedic shows her sadistic nature.
- She easily stands out due to having no one else to compete in terms of heinousness as all the other antagonists are bog-standard or simple jerkish Neutral Characters.
Romantic Killer[]
- While it originally started out as friendly gifts for Tsukasa Kazuki, it would originally turn into a creepy obsession when she brought gifts using his family's money and identity.
- She kept violating several restraining orders and her actions would lead to Tsukasa's father victim blaming him.
- She would kidnap and drug Tsukasa Kazuki where she would end up traumatizing him into fearing women and making him reject any women confessions to him as a result. This combined with his father victim-blaming him would prompt him to move away from his home, only being in communication with his sister for a long period of time.
- While whatever method of sexual assault she used wasn't fully shown given nature of the series, as she is shown lying down next to him and touching his face, this is still enough to classify as assault, as it was a severe violation of his boundaries, and it still traumatized Tsukasa.
- What is worse is that she is 29 years old and he is a high-schooler making it ephebophilia.
- She would stalk him Tsukasa Kazuki many times and always get away with it only due to her lawyer uncle bailing her out until she found a image of him online in a festival to locate him.
- She would attempt to fool Anzu Hoshino that she is Tsukasa's girlfriend but failed to fool her. When she saw Tsukasa she attempted to go to him only stopped by Anzu.
- She fabricated a relationship with Tsukasa online in order to make her obsession and lust for him seem legitimate.
- She blackmailed a group of thugs to attack Anzu and her friends in order to stop Anzu from protecting Tsukasa, forcing Saki's brother, his friends, and Anzu's friends to save her.
- She would personally attack Anzu Hoshino with a knife when her attempted group attack via the thugs failed, which nearly caused Anzu to die of blood loss.
- This isn’t "kill-the-heroes" villainy due to this action motivated by her seeing her as a love rival rather than a threat to her plans. Plus it would be brutal enough anyways even then.
- Her defeat and breakdown would be played for satisfaction for her crimes as she got arrested.
- Although she did end up changing for better, it was only due to Riri erasing her memories meaning her redemption isn't genuine.
What Prevents Her From Being Pure Evil?[]
- While it doesn't excuse her crimes, she has a minor tragic backstory as she was bullied at her workplace on a daily basis and felt isolated until Tsukasa Kazuki helped her in a time when she was very emotionally volatile, causing her to become emotionally dependent on him, and perceive his act of kindness as an act of love.
- Despite her twisted behavior she shown some genuine love in addition to lust for Tsukasa Kazuki. She is also shown to care for her mother despite fighting with her on how to apprehend her situation.
- She has slight moral agency issues, genuinely being unable to comprehend why her actions and intentions are deranged. Though, this is minor as she still goes to great lengths to attack anyone in her way of a relationship with Tsukasa and tries to stop Tsukasa from escaping various times and it disappeared when her memories gotten erased showing it was the result of her insanity than having it before she met Tsukasa.
Trivia[]
- She’s literal the only Romantic Killer Villain to be morally scaled as others are either bog-standard or jerkish Neutral Characters at best.
- She serves as a foil to Anzu Hoshino who is Near Pure Good.
- It is unknown if her Live-Action counterpart also qualifies assuming if she appear in it also count as Near Pure Evil.
