* FirstEpisodeTwist: The story begins with Shinji, a SchoolyardBullyAllGrownUp, meeting his old victim Aizawa at a school reunion and showing that he doesn't feel any remorse, then going home to a happy family life with his wife and daughter. Then it cuts to his daughter Shiori attending school, where it turns out that not only is ''she'' a bullying victim herself, but her teacher is Aizawa, with the story leaving it questionable whether he'll help her or leave her to her fate as karma.

** Shoji Ryoko, the person who [[spoiler: seemingly]] organized the middle-school reunion Shinji attended is guilty of this. When she saw Shinji and his GangOfBullies brutally torture Aizawa inside the science room, she simply said "Oh, I can see you guys are busy", closed the door and walked away without lifting a finger to help him. This hurt Aizawa more than the torture itself because it signified to him that he was [[AllTheOtherReindeer completely alone]]. We never see what Aizawa did to her, but whatever it was, it was enough to bring her to tears and make her cut all further contact with Shinji.

* HiddenDisdainReveal: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]]. Shinji Suzuki is a successful banker and is popular with his boss and coworkers because he is ruthless and handles cases where a normal banker would be sympathetic towards the client. The end of the story is the final chapters, where when Shinji's mistress and former victim revealed him to be a cheater and a bully to his boss and coworkers, they were all horrified and disgusted. Shinji Boss denied him the promotion he wanted and demoted him. His coworkers started to ignore him, refuse to talk to him, and be threatened by him. But some of the coworker's words, like one of them saying that they don’t have to suck up to him anymore and stating he didn’t get his former job on merit, hinted that his coworkers had a disliking for him before to revealed. It’s heavily implied that even though his coworkers and boss previously admired Shinji for how much money he was making the bank and his ruthless personality, they also slightly disliked him for some of his cruelty and how bossy he could be towards his coworkers. When his boss and coworkers saw firsthand what a monster he was and lost respect for him, that dislike for him rose to the surface and became hatred because of how much of a monster he was.

* EveryoneHasStandards: Shinji Suzuki is a successful banker and is popular with his boss and coworkers because he is ruthless and handles cases where a normal banker would be sympathetic towards the client. His boss is happy that Shinji is making money for their bank despite his cruelty towards some of their clients, and his coworkers admire his ruthlessness. While one coworker admitted that he was a little uncomfortable with how ruthless Shinji can be, another defended him, stating that he viewed him as an elite person. However, in the story's final chapters, when Shinji's mistress and former victim revealed him to be a cheater and a bully to his boss and coworkers, they were all horrified and disgusted. Shinji's boss angrily called him out for embarrassing the company like that, denied him his promotion, and demoted him. Shinji's coworkers were disgusted when they learned of his past as a bully and lost all respect for him; they started to ignore him at work and refused to talk and be threatened by him. Shinji's boss and coworkers were willing to tolerate and even admire Shinji's ruthless methods when it was good for business, but they draw the line when they see what a monster he really is and cut ties with him.
