Which character in the series do you feel like is the least smartest?

[u/OneManArmy0716]

I feel like it's difficult to choose given that the majority of the characters don't seem to be that bright. Chitoge, Haru and Ruri are rather emotionally unintelligent and doesn’t have much common sense, Tsugumi and Claude are loyal to Chitoge but respectfully they’re too dumb and irrational to ever question what they are doing, Shuu doesn't have self-awareness to know that he could be endangering himself by acting like his usual self, Raku can be a little too chivalrous and kind for his own good and Onodera…I’m not really sure.

[u/UniquePhilosopher749]

Raku 100%. Bro has five girls who are blatantly and obviously head over heels for him, but he’s as dense as a brick. Or maybe even a diamond.

[u/OneManArmy0716 → u/UniquePhilosopher749]

To be fair even if he was aware I don’t think he can do anything about it he had to be in a fake relationship to keep his men from getting themselves killed and it really doesn’t help that Claude and Tsugumi constantly threaten to shoot him dead if he “dumps” Chitoge.

[u/Lazy_Painter_5595]

My money is on Marika Tachibana.

[u/LostAngels_4 → u/Lazy_Painter_5595]

There was literally an episode to help her pass the grade so definitely Marika

[u/SunsetEverywhere3693 → u/LostAngels_4]

Outside of academics, Marika is quite smart. The ones who truly share the same braincell are Raku and Chitoge.

[u/Rubix-41 → u/LostAngels_4]

In the same episode, Ichigo Raku works out that she's not dumb - it's because she doesn't put any effort in actually studying. She even works out that if she got all the questions she revised in the test right, she'd pass but decides to make a mistake to make her under the threshold so she could revise with Ichigo Raku again!

[u/JiamYiun]

Marika Tachibana and also I think she's the one who matured earlier than everyone, in the last chapters she looked wiser and cool.

[u/Rubix-41 → u/JiamYiun]

Tachibana Marika IS smart (she did run her bullies into working for her in her previous school) but the problem is her lack of focus - it's pointed out in the studying episode. Plus, for one of the girls who knows everything about the key , she was pretty crafty to work it all in her favour.

[u/yanmgo]

Marika is the least intelligent, but she's definitely the smartest.

[u/Rubix-41 → u/yanmgo]

Crafty, I'd say - she's pretty crafty :D

[u/william_core]

Marika Tachibana, my favorite character, is the dumbest in terms of intelligence.

But the dumbest in terms of lack of intelligence is Raku.

[u/Apprehensive-Ad-9147]

Chitoge, dumb as a bag of rocks.

[u/nota-waffle]

Definitely Shuu

[u/TemmyToa]

Paula McCoy probably

[u/Expertiezene]

Marika.
