In Medaka Box, there is no one like that. Medaka pretty much eats up the whole manga herself and I think many people are growing bored of her. Heck, Kosukegawa from Change 123, despite being one of the weakest characters physically out of all the mangas I've read, did more in the first chapter of Change 123 than Zen has done all manga.

Nicely put KLGChaos and that's exactly what has put me off this manga.And I HAVE finally dropped it and just follow the conversations here as each chapter comes out. Hopefully if it gets better, I will start rereading it again.
