Synopsis
Genius high school girl Misato Kurihara deeply resents the amount of expectations piled on her because of her abilities. Darting into the road to save a girl from an oncoming car, she loses her life but gets to meet God and doesn’t really mind dying when she discovers the girl she saved is destined to become someone special. Given the opportunity to reincarnate, she begs God to make her “average” in her next life, which he does. Everything goes well until Misato, now called Adele von Ascham and the daughter of a viscount, regains the memories of her previous existence and realizes God’s definition of “average” was overly literal. In any case, she determines to live her life as “averagely” as possible.
