Trigger Warning: This thread includes the discussion of animated portrayals of sexual molestation and quotes the use of sexist language. Of all the illnesses that have plagued women of anime and manga, perhaps none have been as insidious or devastating as Sakura Syndrome, named for Naruto’s unfortunate shinobi, Sakura Haruno. Today, I’d like to take some time to shed light on this tragic condition, as well as honor the memories of some of the disease’s victims. What is Sakura Syndrome? Sakura Syndrome (or S.S.) is a condition in which a woman who is presented as a competent fighter is mysteriously unable to accomplish anything or win any notable fights. Sometimes this condition follows them throughout their story, other times they are presented as initially genuinely competent only to be rendered helpless captives later in the series. Their ability to challenge gender stereotypes by serving as an example of woman who is capable of the traditionally masculine activity of combat is thus stunted, and while they may appear strong and inspiring on the outside, the truth is that they can have as little autonomy or independence as sufferers of the far more obvious Damsel Disorder. Women in Shonen works are at especially high risk for this disease. What are the Symptoms? Sakura Syndrome’s primary symptom is the inability to win meaningful fights.

The rare and inexplicable Puberty Syndrome is thought of as a myth. It is a rare disease which only affects teenagers, and its symptoms are so supernatural that hardly anyone recognizes it as a legitimate occurrence. However, high school student Sakuta Azusagawa knows from personal experience that it is very much real, and happens to be quite prevalent in his school. Mai Sakurajima is a third-year high school student who gained fame in her youth as a child actress, but recently halted her promising career for reasons unknown to the public. With an air of unapproachability, she is well known throughout the school, but none dare interact with her—that is until Sakuta sees her wandering the library in a bunny girl costume. Despite the getup, no one seems to notice her, and after confronting her, he realizes that she is another victim of Puberty Syndrome. As Sakuta tries to help Mai through her predicament, his actions bring him into contact with more girls afflicted with the elusive disease. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Miu promises that Kenichi will become significantly stronger, but only if he manages to stay alive.
