Hallo, I'm not sure wheter reading this novel or not. The setting (school life even if a not so common school...)and character interaction seems interesting and funny but sometimes they seem also a bit too light. I also read that the anime focuses more to character development ( that I would prefere) then the novel ( more focued to battles) Is this true? Sorry for the silly question but this is a long running novel ( at least 11 volumes)...
