Why would teachers care if a student eats out after school? How on earth does that reflect badly on anyone?

It's not really something that you'd find in most Western societies, but Japanese students are groomed to almost be the exact same as their peers in terms of grades, activities, and even diet (I can elaborate on that last point if you want me to). But going out to eat after school is usually frowned upon because that means that 1) you're not in a club (which means that your individuality isn't under close watch by the school) and 2) you're not at home doing schoolwork. But most schools in the larger regions have all but stopped caring about what students do after school as long as they maintain a good enough grade. Schools in smaller towns, though, are still kind of stuck with the mentality that students can't be left to their own devices.

Japanese kids are really pressured to grow up based on certain societal expectations which are usually separate from how they act at home, and if you're like Honami, who everyone treats as some sort of exemplary student, you kind of instinctively err on the side of safety to the point that it's stupid. I've had classmates that act the way she does because they're so worried that someone from school (staff or student) might see them, and it does take its toll. To add, the treatment Honami gets most likely stems from the fact that her dad's a teacher - who treats his daughter pretty chill compared to most teacher parents I know, by the way - so I'm assuming Honami was pretty alienated early on and it's one of the few cases where it would be acceptable because she's being alienated for being superior instead of being inferior.

I know this is 6 months late, but can you elaborate on the diet part? I can't imagine that society could somehow groom people to eat similarly all the time.

For people like Koyuki, the people they'd appreciate the most is someone who doesn't give a fuck about who they are on the outside. Sorry for the strong words, she just reminds me of someone I used to go to college with.
