* BigBadWannabe: Katou, introduced in the second arc, is a bully who is set up to rival Shirosaki in cruelty, and presents a lot of problems to protagonist Nakajima and his ally Aoyama, to the point that he single-handedly screws up their plan to defeat Shirosaki for good. Then he traps Nakajima and tortures him -- only for Shirosaki to appear and save Nakajima (just because she wants to continue tormenting him) and [[EvilerThanThou turns her ice picks on Katou instead]]. The torture is so severe that it mentally breaks him, and the next time we see him, [[spoiler:he's done a HeelFaceTurn]].

* LovingBully: The "heroine", Shirosaki Hana, is a very twisted version of this. Behind closed doors, she's a violent, sadistic jerk to one boy, Nakajima, in particular, and harms him whenever things don't go her way. "Her way", surprisingly, is ''getting gratuitous bullying and public humiliation'', courtesy of ''him'', just so she can be happy. The story implies more than once that her aggressively sadomasochistic tendencies are her way of processing a crush on the boy, with several arcs devoted to her trying to get him out of reach of other girls like her as he is ''her'' toy.
Added DiffLines:
* ReverseRelationshipReveal: The first chapter casts Nakajima as TheBully and the antagonist of the series, with Shirosaki being his meek, helpless, submissive victim who can do nothing but cry as he assaults and demeans her. Then the end of the chapter cuts to them alone in the school at night, where he see ''her'' assaulting ''him''- turns out she's been making him bully her to satisfy her own sadomasochism and torturing him with ice picks whenever he tries to back out, and he's the one reduced to crying during their late-night sessions. The story actually follows him as he attempts to escape from her.
* TrappedInVillainy: Of a sort; Nakajima only bullies Shirosaki, regularly subjecting her to all sorts of humiliation and violence, because if he doesn't, ''[[TooKinkyToTorture she]]'' will, at minimum, torture ''him'' with her ice picks, and has flat-out threatened to kill him if he quits bullying her.

* TheDogWasTheMastermind: The first chapter establishes Nakajima as a heartless bully who picks on the shy, submissive Shirosaki, who can do nothing but cry in fear as he does things like beat her, make her drink her own piss, and tell her she should die. The end of the chapter [[FirstEpisodeTwist reveals]] that Shirosaki herself is forcing him to do all this to satisfy her sadomasochistic desires, and tortures him if he doesn't do so. Notably, Katou, when trying to deduce who is making Nakajima bully Shirosaki, never considers the possibility of Shirosaki herself doing it because the very idea of a bullying victim masterminding her own torment sounds absurd.

''Venus Puts Fur On Me'' is a manga by Nan Nakamura. As the name suggests, it is loosely based on ''Literature/VenusInFurs'', and is somewhat of a modernization that brings it to a Japanese high school and flips the genders while telling a tale about the horrors of bullying.
Shirosaki Hana is a poor girl who finds herself the victim of Nakajima, the local school bully. He beats her, forces her to do things like drink her own piss, and basically humiliates her in front of her classmates, who all join in or spectate. All except one- the kindhearted Tanaka, who hates what is being done to her. After a particularly bad day, Tanaka decides he will no longer take this lying down, and becomes Shirosaki's protector, defending her from Nakajima whenever and however he can.
