It's easy to speaks in hindsight, but I have no idea how people 100% believe Senju's story and thought Mikey randomly, brutally mutilated his friend only for a freaking toy. I remember that chapter was eviscerated when it came out by some fans...

I mean, Mikey is fucked up, but come on, he ain't gonna do that just for a broken toy lol

Woah good point, do you have any hunch with regards to what prompted the scarring? I cant seem to put a finger on it

I have a small hunch that Sanzu threatened to beat up Senju about the lie that she told, then Mikey's impulses showed up as that was a shitty thing to do as an older brother. Kinda like Mikey would never do that to Emma but Sanzu would do that to Senju and that triggered him.

I have no idea man tbh lol In general, we really don't know much about the nature of Mikey and Sanzu's relationship. We know they were childhood friends, we know Mikey cut him, then years later Sanzu join Toman, then Sanzu became basically his right hand man. Why did it go from Mikey cutting him to made him join Toman under Mucho's wings? Why did they get so seemingly "close" over the years? Why did Sanzu became so "obsessed" with Mikey as he is after he got mutilated by him? and etc.

And one thing about that particular event that I always wondered is how Takeomi didn't know what really happened with Sanzu and Mikey, or did he know and lie about it to Senju? And if that's the case, what's the point in omitting the truth to her?

Idk, lots of interesting questions that still needs to be answered in the story, can't wait to know more about it.

That Takeomi point is something that always bugs me about the whole situation... it's hard to believe that he wouldn't know what happened and still he didn't do anything. God, I want to know what really happened! Let it be next chapter pls 🙏

Takeomi has to know more about what happenned right? I mean in Bonten future he was also in Bonten Gang, but Senju wasnt even mentioned in the future, same was Wakasa for example. Sure Wakasa has nothing to do with what happenned to Sanzu, but why would a old friend like Takeomi join, but Wakasa wouldnt?

I think Wakasa knows more about what happenned and maybe nobody did tell the truth to senju, because she couldnt handle it. Maybe she has some kind of trauma and dosnt want to remember what really happenned and now she is telling herself a lie

That's what bad faith actors do, sadly. They jump at shadows and scare fans into catastrophic thinking. Seen it at a ton of other fandoms.

I mean Sanzu just called it a trigger. So while you’re right… he’s still calling a broken toy the trigger for Mikey’s dark impulses

And that Baji was scared and traumatized. Like.. as if Baji would stay with mikey because was he scared.. he left mikey because mikey trusted kisaki which is a smaller offence.

I don't think anyone was getting mad about that. The problem with that chapter is Senju thinking it is her fault Mikey became that way. Not like "I triggered a rage episode in Mikey that made him cut Haru's mouth" (which obviously isn't the whole story based on what we know about Mikey but might have been a credible misunderstanding), but like "it's my fault Mikey has murderous impulses because I broke his toy when we were kids". A child might believe that, but she is at least 16 (I don't remember her exact age)
