Anta to Osananajimitte dake demo Iyananoni! ~Zekkou kara Hajimaru S-kyuu Bishoujo to no Gakuen Nariagari Seikatsu~ - Ch. 6

[af4zl]

Kind of, yeah.
Kazuma just wants to live a normal life, doing normal things, having a part time job, trying his hand at art, etc. Normal life and normal living...

His only problem is Rua being the irritating little parasite she is, constantly interrupts, interferes, hijacks, third-wheels and inserts herself into every possible aspect of his life, whilst conveniently forgetting everything that happened since the Karaoke incident. Kazmua straight up has called her pig to her face and she just carries on like nothing happened.

He gets so fed up at one point, he breaks into her grandfather's house, pummels the bodyguard like he owes him money and confronts gramps with a stern warning to get off his back, stay out of his life and stop Rau from sending minions after the girls around him.

Is there any reason why Rua became like this? I don't mind spoiler.

Well, I know by the first chapter she's very spoiled by her granpa and like number one family in Japan or something so they don't want Rua looks bad on public eye, but I know there's more into it right?

Usually japanese story like this tend to redeem some of the bad girls like this with some backstory of her.

I've not seen any, I think her personality falls into the generic Nepotistic antagonist that has been enabled to God tier levels their entire life, despite possessing a brain of so little substance that if it were made of dynamite there wouldn't be enough for them to blow their nose.

The enabling is so bad that no matter what she does, she can do no wrong, which only becomes worse when she has bodyguards, assassins and a family with the wealth and influence to make any murders look like accidents.
Add on to that the emotional maturity of a your garden variety Tsundere* and Rua is the horrifying outcome.

*Slightly biased here as I loath Tsunderes, I've peed into toilets that have greater depths than the personalities of these irritating little fun sponges.

I've read up to Chapter 42 in the LN, but as previously mentioned, the original author took the novel down (still not sure why).
The MC's behaviour shift from the Karaoke bar was because Rua was stupid enough to utter his de-programming phrase**
"I hate that we're childhood friends"

**MC was brainwashed as part of the agreement to become the new head of the family after Rua's Gramps kicks the bucket.

She becomes even more irritating after this, constantly acting like they're still dating (the copium is strong in this one...) and third wheeling herself into EVERYTHING he does. He joins the art club, guess who joins it too? She's not above crashing his dates either, he goes to see fireworks with Amane only to be interrupted by an annoucement over the event loudspeakers telling him by name that his date is waiting for him at the annoucement booth.

so she's just stupid

Monsterously stupid.

 

[RevenRhys]

Rua definitely knows Kazuma's natural self is a ladykiller and she's done her best to keep anyone from noticing it and whisking him away with better treatment, I wonder if Kazuma loved Rua at any point before her environment made twisted her. He reacts weirdly when she mentions how much she cares about him a couple chapters ago 🤔

 

[Rayla89]

I feel like he's going to pick apart Rua's circle of followers one by one by helping them be better people. It's a win win because it's both doing a public service and isolating the obnoxious pig at the same time.

 

[HoesLuvHerro]

Add her to the harem as well, she’s just one of those fake rich people that work hard

Amanyan is so very cute tbh

 

[TheYohn]

Rua's channel with 1.9 million subscribers went down to 1.12 million subscribers. Slowly, but surely.....

 

[Ryan_Irsyd]

even though Hiragi totally got that tsundere vibe, her shy side is just so cute and pretty way more than Rua for some reason, Amane suddenly shows up out of nowhere bring cute vibe

Spoiler: cute....

Thank you for translating

Honestly, that's an understandable response. I felt the same way too

 

[wallsg]

new heroine..? she looks way to similar to the fmc(the brat) but seems like a good person 👍

I said the same last chapter hahaha, but she was there in the karaoke and it's one of the girls on the 1st chapter double page colored, under the voice actor. (she was going to be a heroine from the start, 2 more too for us to see)

Here are my notes on her:

Hiiragi, Ayasa "Ayacha" (F)
o) FL?
o) Long-haired blonde gyaru with multiple ear piercings and multiple flowers on right side
o) Student at Teikai Academy, Class 1-1
o) Earrings and choker
o) Used as a pawn by Rua to humiliate Kazuma at karaoke (didn't seem into it)
o) Scholarship student in the elite dance program
o) Says she's dating a college guy and is not interested in guys with no car or cash (act?)
o) Kazuma physically moved her off <PIGTAILS>'s desk
o) Works part-time in a Maid and Butler Cafe and has been hiding it
o) Gets embarrassed and annoyed when Kazuma praises the quality of her cleaning work
o) Getting the feels for Kazuma after seeing Amane hug him

You really need to cover your spoilers. Your other post was far worse.

"working hard" is a bit of an overused phrase in this manga. "working" might have been enough.
but if they need it to be "hard" that badly...

From what I understand IRL it's common to say "thank you for your hard work". I've seen it depicted in many manga involving working characters. "Hard work" is highly valued in Japan even (I think) for "lower-class" jobs.

I asked ChatGPT about it.

ChatGPT: is it common to say "thank you for your hard work" in japan

Spoiler: Response

Yes — in Japan it’s very common to say something that translates to “thank you for your hard work”. The most standard phrase is:

• お疲れ様です (otsukaresama desu) – literally “you must be tired,” but used as a polite acknowledgment of someone’s effort.
• ご苦労様です (gokurōsama desu) – similar meaning, but usually used by superiors toward subordinates.

These aren’t just workplace phrases — you’ll hear them at school, after club activities, or when finishing group tasks. They carry a sense of recognizing effort rather than simply gratitude, so while English speakers might say “thank you,” Japanese speakers more naturally say “otsukaresama.”


Would you like me to break down the subtle differences between お疲れ様です and ご苦労様です, since both get translated as “thank you for your hard work”?

ChatGPT: are lower-class workers valued for their hard work

Spoiler: Response

In Japan, hard work itself is highly valued across all social and job levels, but how it’s acknowledged can differ depending on the role and the cultural context. A few key points:

• Cultural emphasis on diligence (勤勉 / kinben): Japan has long held diligence and perseverance in high regard. Even lower-class or “blue-collar” workers are respected for enduring tough conditions and putting in effort.
• Respectful phrases: Workers at all levels will often be told お疲れ様です (otsukaresama desu) or ご苦労様です (gokurōsama desu), which convey recognition of effort. However, ご苦労様です is usually said from higher status to lower, which can subtly reflect hierarchy.
• Status vs. effort: While effort is praised, social prestige often aligns more with education, company type, and position than with sheer hard work. For example, a salaryman in a big corporation may be seen as having higher status than a construction worker, even if both are considered hardworking.
• Collective identity: In group settings (like factories, offices, or clubs), recognition of effort is an important part of maintaining harmony. A worker’s contribution — regardless of class — is acknowledged as part of the group’s success.

So, lower-class workers are valued for their effort, but the level of social prestige they receive may not be equal to that of higher-status professionals. The cultural respect for hard work doesn’t always translate into equal admiration or rewards.


Do you want me to also touch on how this compares to Western contexts, where “hard work” is often linked to upward mobility rather than group recognition?
