So you've listed 7 rules here (not counting #109). Kind of really would like to see the missing 101, not so much to give you more work, but just to really see just how much of a mouse in a maze Shota's life has become.
> "You're weaponizing tears!?"
To be fair, Ryoko is far from the first woman to do this.
> "And yet I found three emergency chocolate stashes last week. Shota-kun, do you know what that means?"
It means he's not smart enough to remember that Japan has the highest # of vending machines per capita in the world and he could have just gotten his sweet tooth fix from any of the dozen he probably walks past every day commuting to-and-from work, not to mention the highly developed convenience stores they have that put the ones in the US to shame. Hiding the illicit goods in his own house (or in this case Ryoko's apartment) is pretty darned foolish and not necessary). And yeah... I get it... the moment he ate the chocolate, she would have picked up the endorphin rush, so he's screwed either way.
> "Then I'll have to use... the Curse of Absolute Obedience "
I am seriously amazed she doesn't use this more often. Oh, not on Shota... I'm talking about to any various poor schleps out there who tick her off in day-to-day life, or perhaps who have offended her in her past (say that really nasty uncle/aunt in her past), anyone else who may have been perhaps rude or mean to her. She kinda/sorta did it to Rena on the Halloween chp (albeit short-term).
> [Article 51: Always Tell Me When Other Women Flirt With You]
So she can send them to the cornfield.... (extra bonus pts, if you can guess the TZ reference).
