It's hard to say without more insight into Tsuhara's relationship to Seishin; was he helping to publish him because he liked his work so, because it was his duty as his upperclassman to help his underclassmen, out of a fondness for him? He did bother stopping by his dorm, if nothing else; if he was just visiting the dorm in general, he still must have gone into Seishin's "territory" to see his manuscripts.


Somehow, if Ozaki wrote his own meta-fiction, his character would end up a terrible Gary Stu in some kind of poorly attempted "hard boiled" action story. Which is to say, in putting it out in public, Seishin would definitely be able to win in humiliating Ozaki more at last.
