The story focuses on a character who is extremely talented or powerful in some way. However, she decides that she no longer wants to be so exceptional. Instead, she requests to have her abilities made average. This leads to a series of humorous and sometimes heart - warming adventures as she tries to adapt to her new 'average' state while still dealing with the world around her that is used to her former self. There are also elements of self - discovery and learning the value of different levels of ability throughout the story.
In the 'I said make my abilities average' light novel, the protagonist is a girl who stands out due to her high - level abilities. But she becomes fed up with the attention and the pressure that comes with being so extraordinary. So, she makes a rather unusual request to have her abilities toned down to an average level. As the story progresses, we see how her new average abilities change her relationships with others. She has to face new challenges that she never had to before when she was super - capable. It also delves into themes like the meaning of normalcy, friendship, and how people perceive and interact with those who are different in terms of ability.
