The so-called "orientation" the victims develop is not a natural or innate part of themselves; it is a trauma-induced response, a direct consequence of having their will subjugated. The series suggests that sexual orientation is not a surface-level preference but a deeply rooted part of one's identity. To truly break someone, as Nozaki does to Misao, you must first shatter the pillars of that identity—their pride, their dignity, their self-concept. Only then can you begin to "reorient" them towards your will.
