Supposedly it WAS a mistranslation. I don't speak Japanese so I don't know what was said, but apparently it was more along the lines of a general "if you scream I'll hurt you", and the language used often carries connotations of rape so CR subbed it as that.

In the context of the episode, though, you have to remember that Haru didn't mean it seriously, and he was probably imitating a line from a movie in an attempt to be cool or something. Honestly, shoujo is misogynistic as hell sometimes, but Tonari is one of the few this season where the protag is actually independent and interesting and not relying on her boyfriend-to-be to prop up an uninteresting personality.

I'm not a huge fan of this show, but I'll defend it if only because, even though it's problematic, it's nowhere near PROMOTING RAPE AND MISOGYNY like some anime blogs claim it to be. I'd rather watch this than Suki Iiyano aka "show where protag is hated by everyone and it takes a boy to come along and restore her self worth #214214."

Not really disagreeing with you at all, but Japanese culture is pretty misogynistic by nature, unfortunately.

nayrt
You also have to take into account that Haru is really, really socially inept at that point, and anything he says or does isn't supposed to be taken seriously or imitated.
I don't think what he said was right, mind you, but I agree that it's been blown out of proportion by anime blogs.
