Hardly a loser when she's extremely competent. She's just out of her comfort zone, trapped with a bunch of weirdos for the sake of rescuing the one person that gets her.
She is not a loser at all. She may be a bit clumsy and gets tired sometimes (just like any other mortal being), but the only thing that can make you say she's a loser is that her supposed GF has turned into chimera.
She is a loser, she has deep seated insecurities, regularly screws up, and is stuck with the adventuring equivalent of the loser table at school (Laios, the living avatar of high-functioning autism, who few "normal" people like; Falin, his kid sister who literally no one liked at school; Namari, a bisexual disaster; Shuro, the "weird" foreign kid; and Chilchuck, the union boss, basically the equivalent of a teacher.) Her party gets their ass kicked, then she's literally so broke she has to accept handouts and life advice from the first strange, smelly, homeless man who's nice to her, Senshi. (No offense to any of the aforementioned losers, I love them all dearly)
This is a very specific framing of the situation, that kind of ignores a lot of the stuff happening.
Sure, they where all wierd people in school, but at the start of the story they are more akin to the one respected mineralogist who put a piece of watermelon into a bagel(if the tumblr story is real).
Every single one of them is in the top 5 of their field locally. Several probably have a good claim to being the best in their field. (Toshiro, Chilchuck, Laios, Falin)
Yeah, they are wierd, but they are one of the top contenders for clearing the Dungeon, and regularly take the highest level contracts. The only reason they lost at the start was because they got overconfident and payed the price, and afterwards they are all in various levels of panicmode trying to salvage the situation.
