I like the pace of this. It's no nonsense and it just keeps moving. Yes we know Medaka is going to win, and probably destroy the other guy, but at least we won't wait 8 weeks to see it happen.
Except we know very little about Medaka, even though almost every single chapter has been about her. We know that she's pretty much perfect in every way, and she's bad with animals. It seemed at the beginning she liked Zen, but now it seems Zen's really just another member of the Student Council, and they're all about equally important to her.

Then there's Zen, and considering how little material we get that's about him, he's hardly the 'focus' of the manga.
