Description

S1E1: a subway passenger grabs the protagonist's behind (off-screen) and angrily denies it when she confronts him. They end up at a police station, where two (male) police officers ask her if she was mistaken. The assaulter says that because she is ugly, no one would want to touch her, hence he is innocent. The assaulter and the protagonist fight in the station. A senior (male) police chief tells her to let it go because she was just seen assaulting the man in front of the police. This incident was meaningful and illustrated victim-blaming quite well. All this happens between 40:20 and 42:30. S12E2: a fan of the protagonist meets up with her under the guise of wanting to treat her to food and drinks. Over the course of the night, he convinces her that he thinks she is attractive. He pressures her to go into a motel and posts online that she is "uglier than I thought," that he would post pictures of her, and that she is so ugly but he still wants to "have a taste." In the motel, he tries to convince her to have sex but becomes frustrated and pushes her onto the bed. She gets up to leave, but he says that if she did not want to have sex, she should have said so, so that he would not waste so much money. In addition, he asks her why she is "playing hard to get" when she is so ugly. After she hits him, he forces her onto the bed again, she kicks his groin, and they fight. No sexual content occurs after that, but his actions and words seem realistic and could be quite triggering to some. All this happens between 36:30 and 40:00. This episode also introduce one coworker of the protagonist, who becomes unhealthily obsessed with her. At first, he seems to mean well, saying that she looks even better without her mask and thinking of ways to confess to her. However, he finds out that she has a crush on another character and witnesses them go to a motel. In a jealous rage, he sends her an anonymous email saying that he knows she is Mask Girl. Later, he finds out she is meeting up with the above-mentioned character, then sees on his page that he is planning on taking advantage of her. He appears protective and well-meaning as he tries to find them so he can warn her. He even kills the offender and hides his body. However, she quits her job the next day, prompting him to get her address from the offender without her consent. After she finally answers the door later that night and they have a tense conversation, he pushes her onto her bed forces himself onto her. She resists at first, but stops moving as he removes his trousers and pushes up her dress. This scene is especially triggering because of the realistic sex scene. She stabs him to death while distracting him with sex. All this happens between 52:20 and 58:10.
