** Shinji dumping Yazaki after she taunts his wife with their affair, which nearly got herself killed and traumatized their daughter was definitely a good call on his part. His ReasonYouSuckSpeech wasn’t exactly pleasant, but it was only after listening to Yazaki believing that yes, Shiori will certainly hate her once she finds out the truth, but wants to “explain” with Shinji of their “love” so that it would make her understand how serious they are together.
** Nagumo has reason to hate her coach, Yazaki, since she left her out on most of the basketball club as a means to win over Shiori and marry her father. They form an alliance to take down Aizawa, but once it comes crashing down, Yazaki demands the photos of her together with Shinj from Nagumo. She laughs it off and calls her out for wanting to use the photos to force the affair to continue. Nagumo considers this behavior disgusting and rightfully calls her a stalker. Once Yazaki tries to attack her, another teacher pulls her back; Nagumo further taunts her by pointing out she should act her age.

* TheReveal: [[spoiler: Aizawa sensei is on Shiori's side and was just allowing things to happen to gather more evidence]].

* SinsOfOurFathers: Shinji's actions throughout the series greatly impact his daughter's life in a very negative way.
** Shinji's tryst with Yazaki, Shiori's basketball coach, [[spoiler: is what makes TheLeader of the GangOfBullies, Nagumo Ai, resent her and target her, since she thinks Yazaki put her on the main team instead of her because of the tryst and not because of her merit]]. Furthermore, it allows Aizawa to use it to prevent her from interfering with Shiori's bullying.
** Shinji's bullying of Aizawa [[spoiler: is what prevents Aizawa from stopping Shiori's bullying sooner, since he admits that he saw a lot of her father in her. He does ultimately help her stop the bullying by getting revenge on her bullies, but not before Shiori is almost DrivenToSuicide]].

Aizawa was the unfortunate victim of a GangOfBullies of which Shinji was the ringleader. The bullying was so cruel and so brutal that he eventually stopped coming to school.

Shinji then takes Aizawa out of everyone's earshot and chastises Aizawa for "not reading the room" and ruining the mood of the reunion, telling him that everyone was having fun until he showed up. He playfully recounts the numerous painful ways in which he caused pain to Aizawa and concludes that it was in fact "[[BlamingTheVictim There's a reason why some people get bullied]]".
