Every time I see the grandfather's face, I see the face of an insecure, inept man who only knows how to step on others' heads to validate his pathetic existence because he knows he doesn't have the true talent and effort to be anything by himself.

Ayasa doesn't need fool's gold to adorn her diamond.

Judge doesn't know how to judge. Good thing president stepped in.
Happy for Ayase and good to see her call out the stupid badge system.
Kazuma, I think you should be that spark that gets rid of this badge system.

Thank God the girls have agency and their own way of addressing this, because so far the MC isn't doing shit other than just standing there going "man, this system has got to go" over and over.

i wonder if this whole anti-badge arc is a critique to mairimashita iruma-kun's badge system in any way, because it's spot on. Badges anouncing your power-raking is tyrannical and evil, and it will inevitably lead to abuse.
Perhaps, but we've all seen it takes GREAT effort to rank up in Iruma-kun, and Iruma-kun himself is the one who decided to give it his all instead of being a doormat like most of his life, and the badges are just a reflection of that effort.

One could also say it applies to this series too (and Harry Potter)... but unlike in Iruma-kun where demons, monsters, and magic exist (risks when ranking up), it's unironically easier to be corrupt in this world than actual demons in another series lol. And reminder that this whole system was started by Rua not to encourage excellence, but to be vindicative after, you know, attempting to murder someone.

In other words, the BRATTY PIG is literally worse than demons :pacman:

Honestly love that the heroines are standing on their own, and for one another--not relying solely on Kazuma to save them each and every time.

It does set this one apart, for me. Giving agency to other characters, and notably the ones who ostensibly need to be "saved" by the MC every time, is rereshing. Yes, Ayasa credits Kazuma for giving her the initial push, but Prez is correct; she still got here on her own merit, not by being a damsel in distress.
Seconded. The growth and changes they go through are really nice yo see as mini character arcs until the next girl is introduced. Even then, they come back and are shown as having more agency and character development, while still fawning over MC

Thanks for the tl

Ayass Hiiragi is so much better than the other girls I fear for the writing debuff will be done to her in future chapters

Kochou Suzuka was, IMO, the real boss here. Not to take anything away from Ayasa - she did her best and succeeded. (y)
But for a girl (especially in the patriarchal Japanese culture and school setting), the typical (and real) scenario is a nail that sticks out is always to have it hammered down brutally. But Kochou succeeded in challenging the authority and giving students a platform to challenge the badge system. A person who stands up and challenges existing authority on-the-spot in any scenario is, IMO, the most brave.

:unsure:>What-if< :unsure:
The teacher ignored Kochou (like every judge who ignores the coach and/or competitor at every competition) and left the venue hurriedly?
It wouldn't have pleased the crowd, but competent/willful judges can and have ignored the popular opinion. Had the evil judge done that, Hiiragi wouldn't have kept her scholarship and suffered immensely for it. As a result, Kochou would have been left hanging embarassingly and the students discouraged from their lack of power. For students, there really isn't a way to appeal and overturn these rulings without massive spending/lobbying from their parents (or donors). And as a private school, the admin staff have their authority and power in determing their own competition events and judging students arbitrarily. And it is unlikely Kochou can punish the judges/teachers directly.

MC got a squad of top tier girls.
We are all ready for these badges to get sent to the sun using an oversized Trebuchet

do the novel and the manga have the same story and sequence of events? Wanted to read the novel but I couldn't find where to continue from, or maybe it's just my lack of research.
