Synopsis:
Hakoniwa Academy is home to Medaka Kurokami, a student of almost unparalleled ability and unwavering optimism. Elected Student Council President with overwhelming support, Medaka initiates the "Medaka Box," a system designed to fulfill any request submitted by the student body. Partnered with Zenkichi Hitoyoshi, a reluctant ally from her past, she tackles an endless stream of diverse challenges, striving for widespread contentment within the school.
Their efforts are marked by a tangible impact – the gradual blooming of flowers throughout the academy as each task is completed. However, this seemingly benevolent undertaking slowly reveals a darker undercurrent. As Medaka and Zenkichi delve deeper into student requests, they begin to uncover a complex scheme with potentially far-reaching consequences for Hakoniwa and for Medaka herself, forcing them to confront the unexpected complexities of genuine assistance. The series explores themes of responsibility, interpersonal connection, and the unforeseen burdens that accompany extraordinary power.
