The nazi arc

This one is really easy, but:
“It's the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary.” -Gerry Scotti
By the start of the episode we can see the students doing a math exam in the middle of a baseball field (tipical location for school exams in Japan), everyone seems like to have a lot of pressure, our main character (Mayumi Takahashi) suddendly falls asleep because of the many nights spent studying and is sent to the torture chamber where she receive humiliating punishments from a nazi girl until Kekko Kamen manage to save her.
What do we understand from that?
That japanese society is merciless, failure is not part of it, you need to be perfect.
When you fail you are considered useless, a reject of society, and for that you need to be punished.
-
Second part
Mayumi get caught by the nazis and she is put naked in a rotating swastika in front of all the students, and our hero Kekko Kamen manage to save her again, after an epic fight with the nazi girl.
A swastika.... for sure is a strong symbol.
What does it mean that swastika?
It means that kids are too easy to manipulate, let's think about it, while Mayumi was getting humiliated in the rotating swastika some students did something to save her? NO. NO ONE.
And why? Because after many years of living in that sick society they accepted what it became, what they became and what they are, and they think they deserve to be punished in that brutal way, they don't even ask why anymore.
The pedo gym instructor arc
Spoiler, click to viewclick to hide
The gym instructor is a prominent figure in every school, every kid trust him, he is in direct contact with correct physical and sexual development of his students. BUT WHAT DID HE DO?
He betrayed the trust of Mayumi and he used her as a trap to fight vs. Kekko Kamen.
What do we learn from that? That as said before Japanese society is merciless, you can't trust anyone, even in an hypothetical safe ambient, like your school.
Don't accept candies from the strangers, stay safe kids.
