It's easy to forget Hakuri's victim status by ch. 32. We're reminded when he flashes back to talking about it with Chihiro and Shiba to explain why he's so sturdy, but it's quick and nothing we didn't already know. So that seems like the extent of his experience. Time for him to beat Soya!

But then we get the full reveal at last in ch. 35. And oh boy was that a nightmare. Soya used a jump rope on him? A wrench? Broke his fingers with pliers? USED A VEGETABLE PEELER? JFC! And he still frames it as not so bad because Soya kept losing the tools and going back to using his fists.
