Aiko blamed herself a lot for when she thought Hajime died, and her protectiveness over her class strengthened after witnessing his death. So seeing a situation where she would lose another one of her students most likely brought back the feeling of guilt and remorse when she witnessed Hajime's fall.

Finally catching up to the anime

Why?

 

[RUD3DUD3]

another one bites the dust. nice to see MC is just not buying anyone's bullshit. that loli teacher is just pathetic, her mentality would get every one of her students killed.

In the real world there are quite a few people who come back from 'evil' but that's entirely because most first world countries allow the comeback to happen and don't constantly feed you 'you are rewarded for being evil'

from the teachers point of view, she has likely has seen the edge lord or the delinquent turn their lives around 180.
I personally know a criminal with a body count that I would label a good person and has gotten out of crime entirely. (I make a fairly big distinction between crime on crime violence and crime on innocent bystander, to the point I don't personally see crime on crime as being a problem, it's a good outcome, but crime on innocent people ie not involved in crime is about the worst thing possible outside of extreme outliers)

the teacher in this case is viewing this from an almost exclusively peaceful first world pov, while the main character sees every opportunity to be evil, and every possible road he can take and the fact he is STILL trying to go screaming down the evil road

he shot him in the pp

@Faryshta

I'm talking in general, enslavement and torture is better than mercy killing. In this situation, instead of head shotting him, just set his feet on fire for more pain while the poison is killing him. Death is still too merciful.

Pop goes the weasel.

WTF is this teacher, she says she's on "the side of her students" but she still defends her student that was trying to kill all of her other students, and even shouts "no!" when the mc (another one of her students) trys to kill the dude that was just trying to kill them and saying obviously false yet still disgusting lies to try to save his own hide.
EDIT: Even with this sort of talk about how he could become good again, that still doesn't excuse the fact that he was still obviously evil, "there was something wrong with me. i wont do it again, for real" is a textbook case of a villain trying to save their own hide, at least long enough to get away, and although it depends on the case, this case made it really clear that he did not change at all, even when trying to bargain he made this abundantly clear, I mean what kind of not-evil person says "If you save me, i'll do anything... I'll brainwash any woman"?

 

[MonsieurQuack]

MC takes the pragmatic route, it’s immovable and massive damage is taken.

Good - he was a warped individual and had no chance of redemption.

Copy + pasted my earlier comment btw;

So seeing a situation where she would lose another one of her students most likely brought back the feeling of guilt and remorse when she witnessed Hajime's fall.
I believe the WN goes into further detail after this scene of how much Aiko cares for all her students, so I think next chapter or the one after will show Aiko's feelings regarding this matter.

 

[MavB_Ver]

@Toriichii That is exactly what I want to see, on how she will accept the ugly facts

 

[Toefl]

I have always wanted to punch such a naive girl.

 

[Kidawesome55]

@alidan Not sure i can say i can agree with you on some of your comment. After all hajime isn't viewing the world from a "evil" point of view. He's just acting in the way they do in that world. Its a kill or be killed world. Now what I meant when i said I don't understand what she was thinking, I meant I didn't understand after all that guy tried to do(tried to kill a town, tried to kill her, and worked with the demons). Why she could find it in herself to still try to save him.

 

[TimeVolt]

Dang. The one argument that I forgot to address came up, oh well. But even then, the grief was at the fact that an innocent student of hers was lost because of bad (or actively bad against mc) decision making on the teams part. This is a situation utterly unlike the first one, where the fact that a student might die was brought on by (probably) themselves, and the people that wanted to kill him were justified, attempted murder has real bad consequences in real life too.

@Kidawesome55 Like I said, peaceful places tend to have redeemable people. Unless you are constantly feed reinforcement from 'evil is the correct way to go' or 'evil is the path of least resistance' people will generally stay in a lawful neutral to good alinement. however in this persons case, its obvious he is at best chaotic neutral to evil. The teacher recognizes him as potentially saveable, unless i missed something no one died, just hurt, at least no one she knows died.

He killed him because he recognized the threat he would pose because he is still chaotic neutral at best.

Its not hard to understand her point of view, hell, this was probably the first time an intelligent thing was died in her view since being here. She was probably still clinging to the we can all get back safe hope.
