ようこそ実力至上主義の教室へ 2年生編1 [Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e 2nd Year 1] by Syougo Kinugasa
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I admit to being a bit addicted to the series by now. Not only for the clear examples of Game Theory as applied to whole classrooms and individuals in a very controlled environment, or the protag who hides his competence, or the evolution of his friends, but for the sheer bloody-mindedness of the author.

The whole series is a great mirror to our world, exposing its mechanisms in a very clear format. I'm impressed. This particular one is a variation on the prisoner's dilemma but with a sleight-of-hand focus on might equals right mentality. Nice.


Personal note:
If anyone reading my reviews is be interested in reading my SF (Very hard SF, mind you), I'm open to requests.

Just direct message me in goodreads or email me on my site. I'd love to get some eyes on my novels.
