Who would be best at leading a boy or girl scout troop? (Question from Outdoors Person)
1. Asaka Manato – 40 points
2. Tamaki Ryou – 21 points
3. Sagiri Seina – 18 points
Asaka Manato, Cosmos Troupe
Chigi is #1 for sure! I think she’d be really passionate and get everyone into it. #2 is Ryou-chan (Tamaki). She seems good at working according to a plan, so I think she’d make a good leader. #3 is Sayumi-chan (Kurenai). In Sayumi-chan’s case though, I think she’d entertain everyone with her conversational skills, so it would start out really well. But then the conversation would get out of control and in the end it would delay the whole expedition (laughs). Mirio (Asumi) I don’t really see being good at this, and while I enjoy nature I’m also prone to spacing out so I don’t think I should be a leader (laughs).
Tamaki Ryou, Moon Troupe
Who would make the best leader, huh… In that case, I think Maa-sama would be #1. I feel like she’s really smart, so she’d be able to give the kids clear instructions and keep everyone moving briskly. I think I’ll sneak in at #2 (laughs). I like playing around with kids, and while I couldn’t exactly keep things moving ‘briskly’ I could definitely manage like ‘this way, kids!’ #3 would be either Chigi-san or Sayumi-san…they both seem like they would have tons of fun with the kids…Chigi-san! I think Asumi-san would just be like ‘have fun, guys’ and watch from the sidelines.

Maa-kun I think would lead everyone really cheerfully, so she’s first. While this goes for me too, since she’s from a really rural area (laughs) she’d soon adjust to the environment and wouldn’t mind being outdoors for a long time. ‘Fresh’ Tamakichi-kun (Tamaki) is in second place. Since she’s young I think she’d make an energetic leader. I’m third. Though to be honest I’d rather have somebody else lead me, I like the outdoors and I think I’d find a lot of fun in it so I’d probably be okay. Kurenai-kun would probably prfer having someone else lead so she could relax and enjoy herself, and Mirio-chan would probably end up wanting to join my troop (laughs).
Kurenai Yuzuru, Star Troupe
Maa-kun is #1. When she explains something she takes care to make the important points clear and organizes it all neatly, so I think she’d make a good leader. Tamakittsan (Tamaki) is #2. I think she’d really be able to make the kids understand how it felt to be surrounded by nature. #3, Chigi-san, I feel would be more like a pushy salesman trying to impress on the kids how amazing nature is, rather than a leader. As for me, when I go outside I’d rather have someone to follow, so I wouldn’t be able to lead I think (laughs).
Asumi Rio, Flower Troupe
For #1… I’m going to put in a vote for Maa-sama here. As for why, I think a boy scout outfit would really suit her! And then #2 is Chigi-san. She has a refreshing and enthusiastic personality, so I think she’d be good at getting everyone involved. #3 is maybe Ryou-chan. She’s very earnest and fits perfectly into my mental image of a ‘scout leader’. Kurenai-san doesn’t really seem the boy scout type…as for me, obviously if someone told me to I’d try my best but I would most likely fail anyway (laughs).
