I don't think leveling up in shounen series works that way... Though it would be interesting to see a character level up just by shouting.

Tatsuya uses his gifted abilities to accomplish what he does. No one else can hope to emulate it because they don't share his abilities, not his intelligence.

The thing bad about the anime in particular is the lack of explanation about the magic used. For example, Tatsuya's "bullets" in the Blanche incident was created from pure oscillation waves concentrated to a single point, so it doesn't apply as magic, therefore it can function under cast jamming. Then there is Shizuku's Resonance magic, which wasn't explained properly. Then there's Inferno, an A-ranked magic that specifies two zones, then shifts all the kinetic energy in one zone to the other,preventing one-side from having movements (decrease in temperature) while causing the other side's molecules to move rapidly (increase in temperature). Also, we didn't even get an explanation of the difference between a General and Specialized CAD, and also why Tatsuya's CAD is so amazing. The previous episode's Air Mine was explained perfectly, but this is getting stupid. At this rate, the viewers would only be wondering wth is so amazing about the magic used, or what is going on in general.

Tatsuya and getting better as an engineer, but he can not patent their inventions, it shows what he seeks, defeating his aunt
and he continues to increase his harem, now all gorotas the first year are eyeing him
at the end of a meeting with the possible villain of this arc, I'll be looking forward to the next episode

no, it's not like that
i can say Mahouka adaptation is not good enough, there are a lot of flaw which fail to reach the expectation of the hype.

well.. everyone has diff opinion, but i like protag like tatsuya

he`s not typical shounen protag that weak at the beginning, blushing when near heroine, get power when screaming / shouting and his hidden power suddenly popped up.

he has different talent. he polish his unique talent instead become normal magician.
he train taijutsu and other skill that compatible with his talent.

and his experience in military which make him look OP in school.

lets hope he has equal or stronger enemy after this arc. i only read LN until 9sc arc end

And that would be great, that would be perfect, that would be everything I like, if not for one simple thing.
No one else has ANY intelligence. They are all dolls to worship Tatsuya.

Sometimes, when I watch this anime and see Tatsuya's face I think he thinks: "Why do I have to deal with these rookies? So annoying." I know it is part of his character that he's cold and uninterested in his surrounding but by God I would understand if he actually was annoyed by the others.

He should be annoyed, no rather Morisaki is already annoyed listening to the females voices, "worshipping" Tatsuya.

Character like Leonhart would shout, fit for a shounen anime character, mostly muscles and less intellect.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something here, but if Tatsuya is trying to keep a low profile why is he doing such flashy things like using technology that was only know to be at the concept stage and creating new magic to be used in a major tournament? Not mention getting involved with battling terrorists among other things. Seems like he's doing more to draw attention to himself than the other way around.

Also why are no one the least bit suspicious of the origins of those two? Don't they find it odd that for first years their knowledge and ability areway too insane? I mean even Suzaku realized this just from one competition, why wouldn't the people at First High even question it a little? I mean you literally have this dude making new magic and providing unheard of technology for you and you aren't wonder who the hell this guy is? Not to mention the almost as perfect sister is using high level magic that rank A magicians (whatever that means) can barely pull off.

For the first part, most of the LN readers are wondering about that as well. But if one could guess, it has something to do with Miyuki. Everything that Tatsuya did, directly or indirectly has something to do with Miyuki. And also, when I'm reading the LN, I have a feeling that it's not Tatsuya who is trying to keep a low profile, but Yotsuba family instead.
However it should be noted that only a few among the audiences are aware (aside from the First High players) that the new magic used by Shizuku are created by Tatsuya. For all they know, Shizuku was the one who made it and it's even registered with her name on the magic index. And also, not a lot of people aside from Mayumi, Mari, Katsuto, Leo, Erika, and Kirihara are aware that Tatsuya was involved in the terrorist thing.

The great magic abilities for the 1st year are not unheard of. Before Miyuki, they already saw what Mayumi, Katsuto, and Mari can do.
About Tatsuya, they do get suspicious about it. If I'm not mistaken, Mari and Mayumi are suspicious about this as well in the LN later on, but it's not like they can find anything if they look into it.
The secrets behind those two are well kept by Yotsuba.

By the way, just clarify, it's not like the technology Shizuku used in the competiton is not unheard of. It's already released to the public, but as Masaki said it's not reliable. All Tatsuya did was tweaked the software to make it more efficient.

I think its a very good episode do far.
Credits to the amount of Shizuku appearance :3
and thank god, at least the amount of 'onii sama' dialogue is less too.

But anyway, props to Miyuki astounding appearance, clearly can see her godly beauty now.

Well, I'm dissapointed with this anime adaptation as a light novel reader and I can see why there so many people disliking it.

Lot of dialogues and mainly Tatsuya's inner monologues which give him much more character complexity and depth are left out and he literally looks like a robot there. Also scenes are terrible animated and overally it's boring. When I read light novel I felt tension, excitement and couldn't get enough of it. This is juist plain with bad exposition.

so I strongly recommend to all of you, guys who like this setting to actually read light novel. It's 10 times better and gradually improving with each volume.

Shizuku is among the characters I kinda like in this show so glad she is getting spotlight.

The animation this episode was really good. Tatsuya can be annoying at times, but Morisaki is annoying all at the time. He is still stuck on that stupid bloom > Weeds...

Miyuki in mikos clothes was the star of this ep. Truly beautiful performance from her.
Some jealousy from fellow "seed" engineers - c'mon guys like you stand a chance?

It's difficult NOT to hate on how poorly executed this anime is, after reading the LNs.
I watched the first episode, it looked pretty good, and so I decided to read the LNs and finished before the next episode. The rest of the anime seems so much worse now.

Below expectations. In the ending scene at the party, we had like a whole minute of Hattori frowning, with his eyes closed and eyebrows twitching. Nope.

Also I might be mistaken, but in the LN, Honoka activated her light magic at about the first turn as opposed as from the beginning. I know time's limited in the anime, but it's like they selected to showcase the more mundane scenes instead. 5/10

Fantastic episode again as expected. Damn First High dominated the shooting event. Clever way of ensuring Honoka won the Battle Board round. Very interesting conversation between Tatsuya and Miyuki regarding Tatsuya wanting to take down his aunt and shows how much power the ten clans have, great character development. Miyuki was gorgeous in the Ice Pillar Break, her and Shizuku final I'm thinking. Masaki has Tatsuya marked and that teasing end! Oh my! 5/5

Half way through the series and there isn't one thing I dislike about it, only a handful of 24+ episode anime I can say the same about.

He didn't want to be an engineer but was forced to because of Miyuki. Since Miyuki wanted him to be one he had to do his best.

From the LN



One of the reason this anime is a failure.

They are suspected too. Honoka wondered if Miyuki was from the master clans, it should have been in this episode normally. Other will be suspicious of Tatsuya's identity too.

I guess you wouldn't really care about this but I'm saying this anyway, that's Morisaki, not Hattori.

And you're mistaken. She really did that at the start of the race in the LN. I guess you're confusing between her first and second match.

The Tatsuya praise was even stronger than in the weeks before this. Otherwise the competition remains lame as Taku Iwasaki remixes his Jojo 2012 OST - only in boring. Also laughed at how Tatsuya is getting all the praise instead of the athletes, the dumb reasoning for reducing the girls to dressup dolls and the fact that First High is obviously cheating with that blinding spell.

I actually believe CAD is a metaphor for penis/vagina by now. Just replace the words with it and change "calibrating" to "penetrating" and you know what kind of power fantasy you are watching. It really sounds like a bad fanfic from fanfiction.net then.

What the hell, haha... but yeah, it's kinda annoying how all the girls keep praising Tatsuya. I don't remember them being this annoying in the LN

I actually found this to be one of the best episodes for MKnR. Note, one of the best in the series thus far. As an episode itself, it was good, but not great.

I found animation quality slightly better used in this episode compared to most of he previous episodes, but still a bit meh... And it was nice seeing the more serious side of Miyuki in that scene where they were talkig abt he Yotsuba. Also, i particularly enjoyed the Third high discussion of the competition.

One thing that's been really bugging me is the music. The soundtrack just doesnt seem to fit... they sound too cute or disco like... i cant explain it. When they were showing the matches, whenever the music played, it just automatically lowered my enjoyment, i dont know why

I dunno why they added that scene with Morisaki. I think it's an anime only scene? I dont rmb Morisaki being that petty. Sre he was a bit immature, but not to that extent.

Still, overall, this was a much better episode compared to many of the previous ones, imo. The story seemed to flow better. I hope they continue improving.
The most annoying thing about some anime is that they don't know when they've died...

A surprisingly enjoyable episode. I actually hoped the episode would have continued a little longer, which is a first for this show.

Still find the scenes praising and hyping Tatsuya just cringeworthy. LOL @ all those girls being all over him and people claiming this show was far from being a harem. Especially annoying for me so far is that they have yet to show anyone accomplishing anything that isn't downplayed by having Tatsuya somehow involved. Then again, this can be unwillingly amusing.

Also not to fond of the fact that they only show games which turn into a one-sided slaughter. Just makes that threat of First High losing the tournament feel unreal.

That being said, a fine episode and looking forward to some more exciting games.

Btw, still digging the clean art style with the mostly beautiful integration of the magic and CG. Easily the best thing about this show so far.

Can I anticipate more "dropped" comments now that it seems people have designated this the worse show of the spring or will we have to go through this "This is terrible" phase all over again for the rest of the episodes? I would think it'd be easier to just stop watching rather than getting disappointed every week for the next 13 weeks.


But some admitted that watching and bashing it is way more fun the anime itself,so we are stuck with them,maybe until SAO 2 airs :)


Basically, that's saying that being a troll is fun. That may be, for them, but that's not what the forum is meant for. If one is into it just for the trolling and bashing on itself (aka, this is not the same as constructive criticism) than you're not into the anime. If you're not into the anime, what are you doing in an anime forum? Trolls are generally and genuinely disliked on forums, and with reason.

Besides all that, it remains unbelievably stupid to watch an anime you don't like. And that week after week. I would think people have better things to do, like, you know, watching something you DO like. What kind of mentality do you need to have, to continuously watch something you dislike, just to be able to whine about it afterwards? That's quite stupid and despicable, and in a way, sad.

That's quite disingenuous. I hope you do realize you're asking for an echo chamber. Clubs exist here for that reason or you can scurry to the AnimeSuki forums and hang out with the fanboys there.

A forum is a place for discussion. Trolling is making a statement for the sole purpose of getting a reaction out of the other party. Would an essay detailing all that's bad about Mahouka be trolling?

And honestly, I don't think it's "unbelievably stupid" to experience any sort of work you don't like. There's merit to terrible works. Like I said before, this is totally a thing. How can people understand what good is if they don't know what bad is? Other times it's just pure interest in analyzing things.

You and your holier-than-thou attitude are acting as if the criticisms leveraged against terrible shows have no merit.* How about getting off that high horse for once and actually contribute what you think is good rather than whining about other people? And stop with the ad hominem.

Oh and for the record, I watch both good and bad shows. No reason why I'm restricted to just one or the other.

*I understand there's a fine line between bashing and criticizing. The fanboys will obviously say it's bashing because they identify too much with the work and feel an attack on it is an attack on them. That is sad.

Besides all that, it remains unbelievably stupid to watch an anime you don't like. And that week after week. I would think people have better things to do, like, you know, watching something you DO like. What kind of mentality do you need to have, to continuously watch something you dislike, just to be able to whine about it afterwards? That's quite stupid and despicable, and in a way, sad.


That's quite disingenuous. I hope you do realize you're asking for an echo chamber. Clubs exist here for that reason or you can scurry to the AnimeSuki forums and hang out with the fanboys there.

A forum is a place for discussion. Trolling is making a statement for the sole purpose of getting a reaction out of the other party. Would an essay detailing all that's bad about Mahouka be trolling?

And honestly, I don't think it's "unbelievably stupid" to experience any sort of work you don't like. There's merit to terrible works. Like I said before, this is totally a thing. How can people understand what good is if they don't know what bad is? Other times it's just pure interest in analyzing things.

You and your holier-than-thou attitude are acting as if the criticisms leveraged against terrible shows have no merit.* How about getting off that high horse for once and actually contribute what you think is good rather than whining about other people? And stop with the ad hominem.

Oh and for the record, I watch both good and bad shows. No reason why I'm restricted to just one or the other.

*I understand there's a fine line between bashing and criticizing. The fanboys will obviously say it's bashing because they identify too much with the work and feel an attack on it is an attack on them. That is sad.


Trolling and whining week after week, is not discussing. With that simple fact, your whole line of reasoning becomes rather weak, as an argument.

I explicitly said some criticism can be warranted. But while I wasn't addressing you directly with this, I do seem to remember you bashing the series before. I even said what I thought the strong points were and what the weak points of the show. Your insistence that someone disagreeing is a 'fanboy' is disingenuous on itself. If I were a fanboy, I wouldn't have the tendency to also point out the weak points.

Alas, last time, my whole post, which was quite elaborate with lots of arguments - contrary to the all-too-often one-liners I see of the bashing crowd, got deleted. You know why? Because I happen to post it as an answer to trolls. And it was becoming so obvious troll-ish, he one I responded to got his posts deleted. And mine with it. I don't know anymore if it was you or one of the few other regular-bashers here, but regardless. Because of the continuous bashing and trolling - which, indeed, is more geared towards provoking a reaction, NOT to 'educate people what is bad' - I don't need to be educated, thank you (you'd have to be an arrogant prick on his high horse to even think that in the first place, frankly).

You are not discussing anything. You're just complaining. Even worse, you complain week after week, about the same things, over and over again. It might surprise you, but we get it: you don't like it. Fine. Go watch something else you do like. Yes, you can do both. But still the time wasted on watching something you don't like would be better spend on watching (or at least searching) for something that you DO like.

What IS unbelievably stupid is continuing to watch, week after week, something you don't like, and then come here and keep complaining about it, also week after week. It really is. The fact you don't (want to) realise this, is already a sign on its own.

^ don't bother, they even admit their trolling sometimes (stupid huh? :D), when that happens just report them, that's what the button's for.

Lol saying the show sucks and stating things that didn't happen, twisting the scenes and dialogue too suit their agenda and they say they aren't trolling, hating and baiting ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and when someone says something positive (see the previous threads) they attack them with their oxymoronic opinions as if they're facts

E.g. "their cheating in the competitions" hahaha the crimson prince just said first high's equipment is generations ahead of them, thanks to Tatsuya who is part of the school and using certain magic is allowed in different events but they (haters) cry "it doen't matter boo hoo hoo" like ******.

Some pics from the episode ;)
Honoka <3 being extra cute and hot this ep.
