Nagisa's Mom - Tumblr Posts
Also because even if I see posts where someone talks about it, no one seems to remember that SHE LITERALLY DRUGGED HER OWN SON AND KIDNAPPED HIM.
The arc di per se wasn't handled well but people just don't mention this
opinions on nagisas mom!!
Oh boy
Hiromi is a different breed of bastard.
I don't believe she deserved that whole redemption arc, especially in such a short amount of time.
She not only emotionally abused Nagisa, she physically abused him and put him in danger as well.
I don't think we talk about how she drugged and tied up Nagisa, trying to force him to burn the school down enough. That was genuinely insane and terrible.
Nagisa must've been so traumatized by that incident alone, not to mention the other things she's done.
She forced her child to do things he didn't want to do, such as:
Grow out his hair
Apply to a school he didn't want
Live out her failures
Burn down the fucking school
There's definitely more, but I'm too tired to remember right now lmao
Hiromi manipulated Nagisa and made him her puppet to relive the life she failed to succeed in.
Every time he spoke up about what he wanted to do, she would yell at him and say things such as "do you know how hard I work for you?", which is emotional abuse and manipulation.
Yet, she got a second chance because Nagisa has a lot of compassion in his heart.
I feel like Hiromi has caused Nagisa so much grief and got away with it.
I don't like how her narrative was written, she shouldn't have been forgiven, let alone so easily.
I wish Nagisa had said "I do not forgive you, but I am willing to work on our relationship if you are willing to allow me to be my own person" or something along those lines. She does not deserve sympathy or forgiveness, she needs to be put in prison for child abuse.
Hiromi's narrative is one of the few arcs that really bothered me.
