Review of Don't Toy with Me, Miss Nagatoro
People might claim there's some hidden nuance under this show; they might say to "just wait until episode X". They are wrong. This is humiliation fetish anime. An insecure highschool girl bullies an introvert to tears. She isn't "cutely" bratty, she's relentlessly annoying. She isn't doing the male protag any favors or offering wise, complicated lessons. I understand the message; I understand the characters have two layers: what we see, and what they actually feel. I think the show is about average, and the others' high praise is because of (1) good animations, and for some reason (2) people love bratty highschool women. The male protagonistis made to be as insufferable as possible. Every episodes' plot is him getting bullied by multiple women. There is next to no character development except for Naoto squeaking out some mild confidence, and Nagatoro sweat-blushing.
I cannot stress enough this is just Humiliation Fetish: the show. If you want to be humiliated and your internet is locked down by parental controls, then go ahead and knock yourself out.
