She doesn't create ideas. but she is very good in harmonizing them.
If she was more confident, she would be a good model for a democratic leader.
Btw, at the last page it mentions "ten different people and ten different collors" of the Akane Squad. Obviously there are more than 10 people so I think it actually means 10 squads.
Dog- Protags
Monkey- Medical
Snake- The twins
Sheep- Hardwork
Cow- Almost the cutest
Mouse- Low confidence leader squad

sorry, my fault, i didn't count and thought there were about 10 people in the squad. it is a phrase that just means everyone is unique. i should have counted, thanks for listing them
Without a proper access to the RAW... I was sure it was more like a idiomatic expression... Independent of s set number "X different people and X different colors" people also say "to each their own" nowadays? Ten sounding as a round number and all...
Cause if the motif were the Juunishi (Chinese Zodiac), the Tiger, Hare, Dragon, Horse, Bird and Boar units weren't introduced yet... YMMV if there is a need for much characters in the cast though (with 3-4 members each)... I'm in "the more the merrier" camp even if my memory doesn't share the same enthusiasm...
And to the Dog unit to be the strongest the Tiger and Dragon units shouldn't exist, for the sake of fairness... except for a eventual play against expectations... But I'm already in the headless speculation realm so let me end it here...
The squad naming follows the Chinese Zodiac so there are 12 squads. Ninja and people in this time period used Chinese Zodiac name for a lot of things like time and direction.
@Grahav In a way it would contribute to the mystery of the manga since the halves are unaware of each other... Though Rindou is already a thing and the imminence of boys is closer any day such day...
But introducing boys wouldn't shift the dynamic too much? From a unique premise to a generic romcom? While titles like Tsurezure Children are fantastic while handling so many couples... and we are talking about the genius behind Takagi-san... I will keep my reserves...
