If Nanami was a lawyer o//o

(pre-watch comment) I've been waiting for you to react to this episode and the next! I believe you'll get so much out of them! Absolute fav episodes of this season.

Sorry if you touch on this at some point in the reaction, but its so messed up that Oe was convicted simply because of public perception: the courts didnt want to appear as though they were letting a "bad guy" go free so they basically said "well he was found with the knife and he ran from the cops, that seems good enough for me" despite all the evidence.

The conversations at the end are an excellent way of introducing the idea of something else being at play here. Kenjaku already his plan, but now we’re learning he likely didn’t place all his eggs in one basket, which would make sense for someone like him.

DrSophieDarlingReacts

Well I paused to discuss and also mentioned that they had already made up their perception of him as guilty from the get go :')

I just can’t imagine a justice system like that but I guess I don’t need to since it already exists 😭

Vinícius Oliveira

omg you’re so smart! you’ve predicted the idea of higuruma having interest in the culling game because it’s laws are absolute, against real trials which are based on human perception

DrSophieDarlingReacts

It's awful :( Even if people are found innocent based on evidence, social media will condemn them nonetheless!

It’ll probably be said later by someone smarter than me in much more detail, but the Japanese Legal System really is Like That. But maybe not quite for the reasons you’d expect(?): First of all, many East Asian countries can be defined as *collectivist* societies, which means that there’s a much greater emphasis on the collective than the individual. In places like Japan, stepping outside of a social norm is heavily stigmatised, something passively policed by the people themselves due to how the society works. Generally, self expression just isn’t seen as important in the way it is in some western countries; keeping your head down and doing what you’re expected to do is the ideal. Order is important, and when something or somebody isn’t acting accordingly, it can cause distress. This is part of the reason Japan has a fairly low crime rate. Western powers were responsible for bringing many things to Japan, including a very American-style justice system. This system was built up primarily by the uk and then america, which are both *individualist* societies, which put a greater emphasis on the individual rather than society at large. Justice for each individual person was the intent behind these systems (ostensibly). When a crime is committed in Japan, this is a break from social conventions and how things ‘should’ be, which can lead to public distress. Due to being a more collectivist society, the priority here is to appease the public, not necessarily to find the culprit responsible and serve them their justice. As a result, their legal system has changed to fulfil the society’s needs a little better. The goal is, quite simply, to make sure *somebody* gets convicted of the crime, as quickly as possible, to quell any public unease. It generally isn’t seen as worth it to go through a long drawn out investigation when the goal is to solve it quickly and efficiently, so it is extremely commonplace in japan to grab the first possible suspect and not bother considering another option. Practices from there include rough interrogations and sometimes even beatings in order to make the accused confess to the crime, regardless of whether or not they actually did it, and if it *does* go to court, the system is designed to find that person guilty almost all of the time, which is why the conviction rate is so horrifically high. TLDR: The function of the japanese legal system is to find *somebody* guilty as soon as possible in order to keep society running as normal

omg i've been waiting for you to watch this episode! it's one of my favourite in this season. I love the focus on the negative effects of conservatism in jjk and now gege brings up justice and law, it is a very real and valuable debate to have. And watching Higuruma's backstory brings a lot of opinions and thoughts to mind, waking such strong feelings, in such a short time, i love it! Higuruma is such an interesting character and you can totally understand how he got the mindset he has when we meet him now. It must be so frustrating fighting a losing battle when you are so full of justice and when you do lose, you're the one getting the blame. To me, Higuruma, as you said, definitely appreciates the adherence to absolute laws in the culling game, while in real courts it is decided by people and their perception, within and outside the court. also he is super attractive-

10:30 I use it on teams regularly 🙂‍↕️

baileygobrr

once again, gege's ability to introduce a character and fully flesh them out and you get invested in their motives and whatever in such little time is genuinely absurdly good idk how he does it

99.9% guilty verdict? No wonder Light Yagami was so busy

i love your content and i hope you're doing good in life

Ebraheem

also i don't know if you noticed but that drunk driver guy was the same dude in the juvenile detention center from s1

squalor and splendor

something small i want to point out: when kenjaku is talking to the people at the end their subs have japanese characters as well, which is usually the case in anime or movies when someone is peaking another language.

“That’s an amazing reaction face.” My mind immediately goes to this image😭

Rexus

The spirit of Nanami lives on!

Jim Nasium

Yeah. That idea I gave you about reacting to anime movies in Japan theatres that will take a while to come out is definitely a bad idea 👀

DrSophieDarlingReacts

I wasn't entirely sure if that was the case because it didn't look like the same guy :')

Anonlou

Once again Dr. Sophie rocking up with the 20/20 FORESIGHT. (it's hard to praise you when too much detail could mean spoilers) but It's so lovely to see your gears turning. Also: your earrings are amazing.

i always think its "funny" when i hear someone say that they like japan. because i always think that they absolutly wouldnt like it if they knew how it really is to live there. maybe they like anime/manga, the nature, the food and maybe the mythology and history but the politicel system, the (in)justice, the "workingculture" and the society values are absoltuly horrible (at least from my view).

DrSophieDarlingReacts

Every country has their issues and none of them are perfect. Doesn't mean someone can't enjoy a country 😊

Sophie get in line i saw him first🫦

Ryuga

i love your earrings
