Plot[]
Good Loser Kumagawa[]
Renpei is in the Student Council office when Misogi Kumagawa arrives.[3] She watches on as Jakago demonstrates her ability on Sukinasaki. She questions Jakago if they should take out Kumagawa before he cause any problems, but is shot down.[4] Renpei tries to attack Sukinasaki when she uses her Error Message Plate on Jakago, but gets taken over herself.[1] Later, the Student Council surrounds Kumagawa in an empty classroom.[5] Like the other members, Renpei is confused when she tries to remember why they attacked Kumagawa.[6] Along with the other members of the Student Council, she is defeated by Kumagawa before she can even use her ability.[7] After Fude Ezumachi returns to the school and begins changing the colors of almost everything, Renpei is shocked to find the tap water has become orange, and compares it to Ehime Prefecture.[2] After one month of Kumagawa's term as Student Council president, Renpei is controlled by Sukinasaki, along with Suisou Academy's former Student Council and several other students, to surround Kumagawa.[8][9][10] Despite their overwhelming numerical advantage however, Renpei and the others are instantly defeated the moment Sukinasaki turns her back.[11]
Equipment[]
Weapons Specialist: Renpei has been shown wielding what appear to be a pair of sticks, though how she uses them is unknown. However, given that she has never been shown to wield them before, it is possible that she only used them due to being mind-controlled by Sukinasaki.[12]
Abilities[]
Abnormality[]
Zapping Study (退化論, Zappingu Sutadi): A skill that manipulates knowledge.[13] Renpei can use this skill to lower her target's intelligence and reverse the effects of smart drugs.[14]
Trivia[]
