"The widely-adored Student Council members didn't get along very well. In fact, they had a tense relationship, almost to the point of discord."
objectively the best part of the first light novel is how much the student council all* hate each other's guts so i made a little compilation for anyone who doesn't feel like reading it <3
*juri & miki are buddies :) also touga derives enjoyment from being hated so i'm not sure to what extent he really hates the others back lol
juri vs saionji:
1) "His swordsmanship was his only strong point."
2) "A 'mistake'... is that really all it was?" Arisugawa Juri spoke softly, but still loud enough for Saionji to hear.
"What!?"
"You lost because you're so infatuated with our mysterious Rose Bride. It's made you rusty."
"Interesting. Why don't we test that theory?" Saionji said, bristling in response to Juri's criticism. Touga made no move to stop them. On the contrary, he looked amused at the situation, a smile playing about his lips.
saionji vs touga:
1) "What's normal varies from person to person. For instance, why don't you try to unravel these mysteries, best friend?"
Saionji, the target of Touga's words, glared at him with undisguised distaste.
2) "The two of them had been childhood friends, but now they got along terribly. Or, more accurately, Saionji harbored a deep one-sided hatred of Touga."
miki vs touga:
1) "He stopped writing, and glared at Touga."
2) "Touga-sempai! Did you... is this one if your plots!?"
"I don't know anything about it. It's 'The Ends of the World's doing."
"You liar.
juri vs touga:
1) "Don't get cocky, Touga," Juri said grumpily, from across the table.
2) "Touga, you're full of bullshit. I doubt you've said a sincere word in your whole life."
"My, such harsh words." Far from sounding hurt, Touga seemed like he was enjoying himself.
3) [afterword] Manga Juri is in love with Touga, but Novel Juri doesn't even like him. Actually, it would be more accurate to say she detests him.
bonus juri & miki palate cleanser:
"This is unlike you. What are you so worked up about?" Juri protested to Miki. But her voice held none of the iciness she'd shown when speaking to Utena and Saionji.
