* CripplingCastration: In chapter 18, Sakura arrives JustInTime to save Tomoyo from being raped by Satome. After she kicks him into a wall, the Mirror Card manifests in the form of Tomoyo, shatters a mirror, and declares that Satome will ''never'' hurt a girl [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil like that]] again before stabbing him in the groin with the mirror shards; the next chapter outright confirms that the Mirror castrated Satome.
-->'''Shinji Asaba''': Satome is a girl now.

* AdultsAreUseless: The faculty at school repeatedly fail to take Satome's bullying seriously, resulting in multiple rape victims. It's only after he tries to rape Tomoyo in chapter 18 only for Sakura to stop him violently and him to be arrested that they finally take him seriously. By the time of chapter 30, Teikei, the school disciplinarian, has learned from this, as shown by his plan to deal how the school has gotten out of hand:
-->'''Kiriha''': You're not going to take care of this quietly?\\
'''Teikei''': Trying to take care of a "minor bullying issue" quietly and carefully got us multiple rape victims. This school has gotten out of hand. We need to reign in the trouble. Make sure the students know we're serious about the rules, or else they will grow bolder and cause even more damage to the school and themselves.


Added DiffLines:

* TooDumbToLive: Even after being beaten senseless and getting a death threat from Syaoran, Satome still keeps targeting Sakura and her friends. This not only gets his hand broken, but eventually gets him arrested and ultimately killed.

* AssholeVictim: Satome is a SerialRapist who tried to force himself on both Sakura and Tomoyo on two different occasions. No one, in-universe or out, feels sympathetic towards him when Sakura beats him up and allows the Mirror to castrate him in chapter 18.



* ParentalObliviousness: In chapter 19, Himiko Satome apparently had no idea just how much of a monster her son was (said son being a vicious bully and SerialRapist who has been causing trouble at the school for a ''very'' long time) until after she discovers he's been arrested for trying to rape Tomoyo.

Of course, this is at least in part because she never returned any of the school's calls or showed up at any parent-teacher conferences.

* StrawMisogynist: Satome, hands down. During chapter 10, he states outright that girls are worthless and only good for making babies.

* PayEvilUntoEvil: In chapter 18, when Satome kidnaps Tomoyo and tries to rape her, Sakura shows up just in time, kicks him through a wall, and allows the Mirror card to castrate him with glass shards. While Sakura is left guilt-ridden over her part in it, considering he had tried to rape both Tomoyo ''and'' Sakura previously, and is confirmed to have raped seven different girls in the next chapter, you won't feel bad for him: Meiling states outright that even if it wasn't the right thing to do, Satome certainly deserved it.

* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: The entire reason that [[spoiler: Meiling's grandfather]] is staging these attacks on Sakura is because he wants [[spoiler: Meiling's engagement with Syaoran to be reinstated]]. However, while he claims he's doing it [[spoiler: for Meiling's happiness]], Sakura and Syaoran are able to piece together rather quickly that he's only doing it because [[spoiler:he wants to "correct" his failings to the Li clan and produce a purer heir by having magic-wielding great-grandchildren]]; Fanren even states outright in chapter 18 that he's only doing it for himself. In any event, the fact that his plans have repeatedly caused collateral damage and endangered innocent lives prevents him from being sympathetic.
