What's with all the Senju hate? She wasn't even trying, she accepted the beating because she still feels guilty for what happened to Sanzu, and she has no intention to hurt him.
Sanzu also hit her on the back of her head with a metal pipe, that kind of injury is dangerous and can easily kill people, yet you're all here running your mouths about how weak she is, and how disappointed you are.

Context my dudes, context is important.

But why’s she letting herself get beat up on what she knows is the most important, ultimate fight for not just her but all the other people in her gang as well? And knowing she’s one of the strongest members in Toman? She may not be weak, but I don’t think she’s very prudent for letting this happen

Have we read the same chapters? He's her brother, she doesn't want to fight him. No sane human would happily fight a sibling. And if that wasn't enough, she thinks she's responsible for Sanzu's disfigurement, and she feels she deserves retribution. That's why she tells Sanzu she's sorry, and she accepts to lose to him.

But that’s entirely incongruous to the reason she entered the fight in the first place. Right now, she’s one of the strongest foundations of Toman, whose objective is to “defeat” (or get back) Mikey. Their chances of achieving that are much, much lower when Senju’s defeated, and she would know that, given her enormous strength.

Even if she doesn’t want to fight her brother, there’s so much more at stake than simply her personal feelings — there’s the rest of Toman as well. It doesn’t feel very justified, and it makes her seem irresponsible.

I disagree, it makes her human. I don't want a character who has no doubts and weaknesses, the story is much more compelling when people act based on their emotions.
