Term Ordinary high school student
Origin A Certain Magical Index

"Ordinary high school student" here refers to ordinary high school students, but they usually have the power to save the world, as if even the adults in said world are useless. It is also a moe point in ACG subculture.

Introduction

"Ordinary high school student" is a common character archetype in many ACG works. Since most ACG works come from Japan, "ordinary high school student" often refers to "ordinary senior high school student".

Japanese senior high school students, together with American adult males (or men around 35 years old such as war veterans and single fathers) are known as the human units with the strongest individual combat capabilities on Earth.

In Japan, ordinary high schools are an important organization that maintains peace on Earth. The admission requirements are very strict. Without incredible powers, it is difficult to be admitted to ordinary high schools. Therefore, among ordinary senior high school students in Japan, some may have extraordinary IQs, and be better than a group of scientists; some may have amazing strength, capable of doing anything and everything; some may appear ordinary, but in fact be actually magical girls or mercenaries; some may dismantle a robot with bare hands and fight mecha physically; some may be genetically modified or enhanced and transformed into mutants; some may become idols and save abandoned schools. In short, they can always accomplish things that some groups of adults cannot accomplish. Whenever the Earth encounters crises such as wars, monsters, alien invasions, etc., ordinary senior high school students will come out to save the world. Only they have the power.
