Ep 9. Box 9: It's Not Justice if You Don't Go Overboard!

In Medaka Box season 1 episode 9, titled "Box 9: It's Not Justice if You Don't Go Overboard!", the Student Council is approached by a girl named Kei Munakata who wants their help to enforce justice against a group of students who had bullied her little sister, Aria. Munakata has already approached the school authorities but had no success in getting justice for her sister. However, Medaka, being the enthusiastic do-gooder she is, jumps at the opportunity to help Aria.

The Student Council begins their investigation by talking to the bullies and trying to understand their motives. The bullies claim that Aria's continuous complaints about them had caused them to turn on her. However, the Council members see through their lies and understand that the bullies are just trying to cover up their actions. Medaka confronts the bullies and challenges them to fight one-on-one with Aria. If Aria loses, the bullies are free to do whatever they want with her. But if Aria wins, the bullies have to leave her alone forever.

The bullies agree to the challenge and set up a fake boxing ring to fulfill their own twisted desires. However, Medaka has a better plan in mind. She introduces a new sport called "Minus 6". In this sport, the players have to score negative 6 points to win, and the more they humiliate and hurt their opponent, the more points they score. This sport may sound cruel and unusual, but it works great in this situation as it allows Aria to get her justice while avoiding unnecessary violence.

Medaka pairs Aria and the bullies together and gets the game started. The bullies initially have the upper hand since Aria has never played any sport before. However, Aria quickly learns the rules and starts scoring points by dodging and blocking the bullies' attacks. With each point she scores, she gains confidence, and with Medaka's guidance, she ultimately emerges as a winner, much to the bullies’ shock.

At the end, the Student Council punishes the bullies by making them dress in silly costumes and parade around the school. They also apologize to Aria and promise never to bully her again. Munakata is overjoyed with the result, and Aria has newfound confidence in herself. The episode ends with Medaka and the Student Council enjoying some well-deserved ice cream.

In conclusion, Medaka Box season 1 episode 9 is a thrilling, action-packed episode that shows the power of standing up against bullies and using intelligence and strategy to win against them. The episode presents a unique sport that challenges the concept of traditional sports and delivers a satisfying conclusion to the storyline. Overall, the episode is a must-watch for fans of the series who enjoy action, drama, and a touch of humor.
