Actually, I think he might be getting off on being slapped and looked down upon than girls getting beaten up. (That is, he's an M, not an S.)

When I thought masara couldn't be more of an ass, he comes to prove me wrong.
I wouldn't say Masara is an ass per se. The point of these seems to be making fun of these sorts of people who always talk about the "purity" of girls or how they're "used goods" or "corrupted". That is, the whole point could just be to say "Hey look what a pathetic loser this guy is. When you guys talk about the purity of your waifu, this guy is YOU!"

From how it goes men in general in this universe
To be honest, in the Masara universe, it seems like everyone's at least a little bit psychopathic. Even the girls seem pretty laid back about horrible things happening to people they don't directly have a stake in, much less all the behavior of girls in the "asking to do it with" stuff.
Pretty sure it's the same case with Ushio and Shoukaku and such. The other admirals seem to be just downright scum.
Are you saying that those girls got raped because some jelly shipgirl didint like the sight of them being close? Sorry if this is a dumb question, Im kinda slow with this kind of stuff. Not that Im siding with this admiral but... Are those actually active ship girls? or just decommissioned ships? They seem to have way too much free time and having "fun" all the time instead of doing their actual work.; almost can understand why is he so angry if this was the case.

That is very true Kongo and her new Army friend especially

Unlike forces on land, you are not on constant duty (unless you're watching out for submarines or on a specific operation), so relatively you do get a lot of "free time". What the girls do are not that different from what sailors at harbor might do.
Let me see if I got this straight. This *sshole of an admiral: - wanted to live the chauvinist fantasy that all the (ship)girls should remain virgins. - abhorred and despised and looked down at any of them who (at least according to the lenses) had had sexual experience. - regardless of purity or the lack thereof, he would still, rather selfishly, think of them all as m*sturbation or arousal material. - decided that he doesn't want to stay as a cherry boy and that he *will* without a doubt accept one of his charges (a ship girl) as his first partner but only if said partner is also without sexual experience. - is aroused at the thought of this one ship which used to *act out* taunting him for his (I'm gonna use the word "cherry" again, because "virginity" is more of a female term in my mother tongue) having been raped.
sounds like standard Machismo. but I'm still not sure if this *sshole of an admiral is any better than the other one who will demand sexual favors with the one line "let me do you"
I think most of you are being hypocritically harsh on the admiral.
Would you care to explain what you mean?
Like I've been saying, the point of this whole strip is to make the admiral the most infuriating and pathetic scum possible while parodying a certain mindset. That said, it's only hypocrisy if I was one of those people who had that mindset and cared about whether someone was a virgin or not. I wouldn't have confronted Naka (and don't really understand the whole idol thing, and why they can't have boyfriends at all,) I would have, at the very least, called the MPs to help Shoukaku, and certainly would have dated Maya. The only girls with a sex count I get upset about are the ones that are getting raped while nobody does anything.
I don't really understand the infuriating part. The chapter when he's being a dick the most is with Maya.
But most of the time he keep it to his own. Pathetic, but he's just complaining to himself and not forcing it to the girls when his fantasies are ruined. The girls don't bother themselves with him.
Naka, he’s being a disappointed fans and that’s it. Won’t claim myself to understand the idol fan culture, but when Idols are selling dream that they love their fans (not necessarily in romantic meaning), but them having romantic relationship with others, or having sex behind fans' back gave impression that all the attention the idols gave are just lies. Besides, “back off if they are taken” Him scrapping Naka have more to do with his neck going to the chopping board rather than his crotch though.
Ashigara, I only assume she's already used to all the happening that she would be more surprised if someone actually accepted her wedding proposal.
Shoukaku… in darker story, he might see Shoukaku as a lost cause who is already too deep in the whole blackmailed rape thing that she wouldn't get out even if he offered help.
"Scraping" someone because they were going to report you for sexual harassment isn't "gameplay mechanics".
Nobody knows what happens to the girls who are scrapped, they may just have their equipment taken off or maybe killed, we don't know, but rape is rape here and mars.
Machismo like that means something else, this guy is just an complete asshole.
But there's a difference between "gameplay mechanics" and a guy being aroused at a sight of a raped girl.
I wish I had a better argument but honestly this is nothing but really oldschool , early 20th century Latin America (and probably Asian-style) machismo to a T: -men have a right / obligation to have several sexual partners. -women who have had sexual partners must be treated in a degrading manner and be called names ("used goods" if you will) -women related to a self-respecting male *must* be kept virgins at all costs. the loss of virginity must be punished by the male in charge.
The whole "arousal at rape" is unrelated to it and it's weird but I guess we all have the potential to develop fetishes of all sorts. Still can't be condoned to act how he did.

There were stacks of materials next to Sendai and Junsuu.

Its implied he "silenced" her to avoid sexual harassment charges.
There were stacks of materials next to Sendai and Junsuu.
Plus, only having the equipment taken off doesn't mean Naka would be unable to report him. He had to shut her mouth in a definitive way. So yeah, he basically killed Naka.
As for the aroused by rape, well, there are people who are, thus having games and animes about that, but personnaly I think it's because those are precisely "virtual" that they get aroused, because the rape isn't real. Like a lot of things, sometimes it's because they feel not "real" to us, and we don't have an interest by ourselves(meaning we don't want to do it or have it happen in real life), that makes them nice to us(kinda similar to the all bark and no bite virgin, who might be always saying this, yet never intend to do it when the time comes, too scared or too stressed). As an example, a friend of mine, a girl, likes to watch porn(yeah), and is excited by gangbangs, yet she likes it vanilla and never want to do it with more than one person. Well, those are one case; there are also nuts ones who really like the real deal happening before their eyes and/or doing it. In the admiral's case, as it's his own fleetgirl who is concerned, he seems more of the "I like the real deal" type, which is clearly not making his reputation any better...
Also, a bit of some hypothesis about the story. The ice cream might not be related but... As some others suggested, I think a (or more) fleetgirl saw them and got jealous, thus asking men(possibly other admirals) to get revenge, possibly one of the Love brigade (post #1770147 ) minus Kongou(or even Hayashimo, as she's always stalking in usual works due to her idle line?). We never know, it's masara we're talking about...
A few days later.D..Don't touch me!An angel... What in the world happened...This immoral feeling of arousal!What is this....Well, if it isn't some Mamiya-san ice cream! Thankies~'ain't it fine? It's just a bite, yeah?
Ooh, delish! Hey...Hm? What's wrong?
