In real life, how can the perpetrators and victims of school bullying go to play together and become friends? I can understand Nishinomiya's kind and forbearing character, and he will always live in inferiority complex, self-blame and flattery. But how could the male protagonist suddenly change from a bully to weak classmates to a warm man with strong empathy. There are also the settings of those classmates who have participated in or watched the bullying, which is really ideal. To put it harshly, it feels like whitewashing the perpetrator.
But I still cried because I know what it's like to be out of place, friendless and isolated at school.
Also, even though the setting of the little fat man Yong-suk is very idealized, I am still moved, "my good friend Ishida", "my Ishida"... I wish I also had such a sincere and firm view of me as Friends of friends.
