There, Inoue is free, and his infamy really shines there, the edgy stuff is off thee charts, with him outright crossing the disturbing, taboo, inappropriate, offensive, etc. stuffs, being normalized. Like I said, was more refering to Inoue as person. Those aren't seen much on the TV shows (at least for now).

I mean, sure, maybe he's writing gross stuff in other fields? I'm happy to avoid that stuff and focus on his TV work.

Definitely. Moderation in all things.

I guess I still see it as Amane trying to replace her dad with Hajime. She wants a family unit, and Photozawa is getting in the middle of that. She's got issues, for sure.

As for Photozawa being superhumanly competent, she got heaved across a park, and she still tried to get a photo of the monster fight. There's no quit in that lady!

Yeah, alternately it's Tachibana, and why should any single thing he does be normal or predictable. I suppose Team Blade felt lucky that he ate the food, rather than eating the dishes or just sobbing uncontrollably. This was the most appropriate Tachibana has ever acted around them!
