What if the author actually intended that Hisao doesn't think about it, or he didn't thought about it himself? Otherwise it's a bad style of the author.
Again, i prefer to judge what's there instead of judging the story i made up myself.

I've heard that exams in Japan were harder, but i haven't known that they were that hard.
It sounded more like she was actively avoiding hisao and misha instead of being busy, as she was doing all student council stuff alone. (Beside, misha asks Hisao in the Shanghai if he thinks that Shizune actively avoid them, because she thinks so for herself).
But it sounds plausible.
So children are magically free from all blame because they're children. Got it. Great.
We're not talking about a week she denied to talk to her father. we are talking about 12 years.
Are you a troll or do you really can't get that?
You'd be one of those annoying parents with an unrestrained brat who annoys all the neighbors, wouldn't you?
That's a more then pathetic try to get personal instead of arguing. It seems that you can't handle to argue. Would it even make sense to quote modern psychology, laws, studies etc. if all you would (and possibly could) answer were two sentences, not a single argument but instead becoming personal (on a theoretical level)? Every word written would be wasted.
I never said that a child should be free to do what ever he/she wants (if that's what you somehow understood), but if Jigoro doesn't talk to his daughter for 12 years, it's likely his fault, face it.
Maybe the mother played a role, if you would argue that way i could at least take you serious. But you don't, and 12 years are a loooong time to overcome something.
If you are that ignorant, i honestly hope that you will never have children. It's usually people like you that have such brats. I speak from experience.
Here's a little exercise I'd like you to try: Abandon your one-sided Jigoro-hating bias and then come back. You'll notice Jigoro isn't the devil and Shizune is pretty flawed herself.
I admit that i have a bias against Jigoro, as i said i initially didn't liked him. But if you are so biased that you blame his 6 year old daughter for excluding her father for the rest of her life, take a look at your own bias and ignorance.
Do we not remember Lilly is only Half-Scottish?
On Lily's looks, just look at the kids of mixed marriages between Caucasians and Asians.
Haven't thought about that.
In an attempt to prove a point, I did a quick search for "muscle man in Hawaiian shirt."
I stopped looking after it gave me this.
Misses the beard and handful of styling gel, but ok i can see it
. That facial expressions seems fitting.
And Hisao gives him more credit than you do. Hisao considers three possibilities - he's a health nut; he's a bad cook; he's an asshole. You can't cite the eggshells as proof of his assholishness to interpret later actions as assholish and then return to the omelette and argue that he must be an asshole because of everything else he does. That's textbook circular reasoning. So, for the sake of this thought exercise, let's give him the benefit of the three possibilities Hisao considers.
You are right.
You really can't see it? If the internet hasn't polluted you to the point where you can see that sentence, actively look for innuendo, and come up empty means that you're a better person than I. So as to not be crass, let's just say that it sounds like he's describing the mechanics of a "comfortable" arrangement.
Maybe it's because i'm not a native english speaker and the innuendo gets lost when i translate it in my mind.
The only innuendo i can think of would be groupsex or circle jerking, but both seem farfetched for me. Also, that's something all six of them could do at the same time...?
There's a certain type of "coarse exterior, soft interior" individual where they voice their minor annoyances as more significant than they are. He outright says that he's glad they enjoyed using his equipment, but their treatment makes it clear that they had no idea what they were doing. So, to emphasise their ignorance, he paints a picture of them using the rods in a comically improper manner.
Possibly. I guess the meaning changes in the matter how you imagine him saying that sentence.
I were quite sure that he was sarcastic when he said that he's glad that the group enjoyed using his equipement. Are you sure that he wasn't sarcastic?
He accuses Hisao of huffing glue.
His response is very polite and soothing.
“He's right. It's slander. Are you a lawyer?”
Oh so very polite.
That was afterwards. If Person A insults Person B multiple times, and Person B answers snappy afterwards, why would you hint at person B and be like "oh look how rude he is!"?
And it is slander, isn't it?
And it's actually possible for Japanese people to have red hair (actually a bit darker than Rin's but still red).
Also: Anime/Manga/VNs often use Blue/Green/Purple as stylistic choices for Black. So it's likely that Jiggy, Shizune and Hideaki (and Hanako by extension) all have black hair. Technically Jigoro's hair going to green might be his hair is actually black, but graying.
Ah, first time i heard that. Ok, i can imagine him with black and grey hair.
