HEAVENS LOST SADISM #60

 In "Black and White," the gang's hanging around the house when Ikaros remembers that she declared her undying love for Tomoki when she was on the brink of death. Profoundly embarrassed, she goes into hiding. Nymph, Sohara and Astraea become so angry on Ikaros' behalf that they jump Tomoki and beat him up.

Tomoki trails Ikaros to a tower she's built in the back yard and gets past the other three ladies. However, inside the tower Ikaros has set up man-mangling traps to keep Tomoki away.

Tomoki makes it past the mangling machines and reaches Ikaros, but he can't quite bring himself to pledge love to her, even though implicitly he's closer to loving her than any other girl. But he orders to be his Angeloid again, and Ikaros seems relieved to go back to the status quo. As seen in an earlier story, she even takes literally the idea that she should always 'be at his side"-- and this time, Chaos gets in on the act, with both of them crushing Tomoki into the wall-- which is the closest HEAVEN'S LOST PROPERTY gets to a wrapup. Verdict: UNJUSTIFIED-- which has just about four less total entries here than JUSTIFIED.

HEAVENS LOST SADISM #59

 "Normal" takes place after Tomoki has overthrown the power of the Angeloids' master and has returned to the world to "normal"-- or as normal as it can be when he's living with four Angeloids. On top of that, Daedalus, creator of all Angeloids, shows up as well, revealing that the Sohara they all knew has been an android double of Tomoki's original friend, who passed away as a little girl. (Indeed, The android Sohara is actually a dead ringer for Daedalus.) Though all of Tomoki's earlier assaults on femininity-- purely those of peeping and groping-- have been perpetrated on girls his own age. But he suddenly takes it into his head to grope Daedalus, the "mother" to all the Angeloids, possibly because of the resemblance. Sohara leaps to punish Tomoki with a karate chop, but Daedalus gets her first and only chop in first. Verdict: JUSTIFIED.

HEAVENS LOST SADISM #58

 "Atonement" displays a sudden heel-turn into tragic seriousness. Tomoki tries to stop a major battle between Nymph and Chaos and gets stabbed by one of Chaos' metal wings. Verdict: UNJUSTIFIED.

However, in the follow-up "Stone," the Angeloid Oregano resuscitates Tomoki to full health-- except insofar as Ikaros, joyous that her master has been saved, nearly breaks his back with a bearhug. Verdict: UNJUSTIFIED.

HEAVENS LOST SADISM #57

 In "Reward," Tomoki is invited for the first time to Hiyori's house. Nymph, still denying her feelings for Tomoki, tags along. Nymph witnesses Tomoki get a boner from staring at Hiyori's boobs, and she slugs him. Verdict: UNJUSTIFED.

Later Hiyori, who shares much of Nymph's lack of confidence, offers to become Nymph's friend, and even suggests that they "seduce Tomoki together." However, the episode ends by setting up the return of the demented Angeloid Chaos, and a tragic climax for Hiyori.

HEAVENS LOST SADISM #56

 In "Lost Memories," Tomoki and Sohara get hurled back in time, where they meet their younger selves and a younger version of Tomoki's grandfather. A silly competition to see which Tomoki is more perverted ensues, and Sohara punishes her version of Tomoki for skirt-flipping. Verdict: JUSTIFED.

HEAVENS LOST SADISM #55

 After the deaths of the Harpies, the story "Family" shows Tomoki going into seclusion, worrying all of his Angeloids. The rich guy Yoshitsune, seen in entry #49, tries to persuade Tomoki to come out with some dirty stories, but for some reason his jealous sister Tsukino happens by and clobbers her brother for being nasty. Reasonably JUSTIFIED.

Tomoki's mother also stops by to kick her son in the balls. UNJUSTIFIED.

Then it's back to JUSTIFIED as Astraea beats up Tomoki for groping her, but it all serves to get him out of his solitude.

HEAVENS LOST SADISM #54

 The kids all hang out the beach for "Fireworks." Tomoki sets off some pyrotechnics that almost injure the ladies, so Sohara pounds him. Verdict: JUSTIFIED.

However, a little later one of the harpy-androids-- possibly named Gamma-- gratuitously dumps a bunch of fireworks into Tomoki's swim trunks. Curiously, he doesn't seem unduly upset and just kind of waits for the explosion. Accepting his inner masochist at last?Verdict: UNJUSTIFIED.

HEAVENS LOST SADISM #53

 "Tides" is another beach-frolic. Just as the two evil harpy-Angeloids are plotting the destruction of Tomoki and his allies, the latter invite the harpies to the beach, where much hilarity ensues. Tomoki finds time to molest Sohara and to get lump upon lump.
