Mmm, this plus the harem tag is saddening. Seems like it won't be for me. Wish 90% of romcoms weren't harem but I guess I'm just not a part of the target audience.I got curious and clicked the raw web novel link in the title page.
This story will need a red tag later on Sexual violence tag, cause the delinquents kidnap and almost rape one of the girls.
To be fair, the slutty-acting one does kinda throw herself at him more than once, but it's unclear how serious she is about it.As for harem tag... doesn’t check the WN, but up to volume 2, the other girls don’t show serious interest on Shiki at all. And they already know those two are attracted to each other, even before the stupid couple themselves.
It isn't that she's dumb -- as you point out, she has the discipline to excel at an obscure set of martial arts -- but the discipline to excel physically isn't the same type as that to excel academically. She has to find a way to bring the one to the other but she simply hasn't up to now.Dumb cliche of being strong = being dumb. At least make her average. Honestly, if you have the discipline to learn martial arts, you should have to discipline to study and at least not be a complete failure, even if you aren't particularly good at it.
That's probably a good thing...Mmm, this plus the harem tag is saddening. Seems like it won't be for me. Wish 90% of romcoms weren't harem but I guess I'm just not a part of the target audience.

generally, it's never really that someone is just dumb. If someone does something dumb in day-to-day life, it's usually more a matter of them being inattentive or maybe having personality issues instead. If someone seems dumb acedemically, it's usually has to do with how poorly thought out and rushed education generally is, to the point where you kinda just have to luck out and already be suited to the way the topic is being taught. Because the teacher isn't going to have the time/skill to go over the material in the exact way you'd need to understand it best then do that with 39 other kids.It isn't that she's dumb -- as you point out, she has the discipline to excel at an obscure set of martial arts -- but the discipline to excel physically isn't the same type as that to excel academically.
