Leo's "sword" seemed like very specialised and not universally adaptable.

Is this really getting so much better or are they only toying with me? o.o I actually enjoyed it for real for the first time and I can't wait for the next ep! I wanna see the finale battle!

And about this episode... I loved the moment with bro-con <3 And that Tatsuya's face just after xD Sometimes I'd like him to have more expressions but well, he's onii sama, he doesn't get angry or anything xp And the second thing - I feel like I fell in love with Suzaku all over again! (even if he was irritating for the half of CG) ;p

YOU'RE GONNA CARRY THAT WEIGHT
SEE YOU, SPACE COWBOY...

But still guys from other schools were elite and selected students of military facility yet Leo stomped them with little effort. I find it very hard to believe.

Because Leo is good in magic CQC,magic power or rank doesn't have anything to do with it.Course 2 Erika vs course 1 Azusa,who do you think will win?I would even say Erika can push Marito the limit in a fight.

CADS outsourced as long as they are within the competition specs are allowed.That's why Leo's are allowed,also specialized CADS are allowed,see Shizuku's CAD that has Phonon Maser,it's a specialized CAD.

For girls too much spoilers,but yes I still count 3.

.

Erika has no chance against them. And jakkubus, the students are not from a military facility, only 3rd high school students have military training because the school specializes in combat.

Erika?No chance against the Azusa that has no combat training?Mari is good but Erika can match up to her speed,as Erika specialist also in magic swordmanship you know.And also stated that she is better with the sword than Mari,and her only advantage is her ability to use various magics at once.

Not Azusa but Marito. She would lose easily, she is only a better swordsman without magic. Yokohama arc was enough to show how strong Mari is, Erika is not even close to their level. Maybe she is stronger than Kirihara, "maybe" but that's it.

Finally we see someone about as OP as Tatsuya.

Next episode should be very interesting though, assuming they DO finally end up battling.

love how The Prince and Cardinal don't understand what a 'trump card' is. If someone is willing to use something like Gram Demolisher as an opening move on the first match....don't think that's all he's got be worried about what he's got hidden. Jesh underestimate your enemy at your own peril.

He ruins his present while worrying about his future, but weeps in the future by recalling his past. He lives as though death shall never come to him, but dies in a way as if he were never born”

Lol poor Crimson Prince and Cardinal George. They thing Gram Demolition is going to be Tatsuya's trump card in the finals. As that lady said when watching the match, little do they know about his flash cast and elemental eyes huehue. Third High is going to get their shit pushed in.

Wow its like you guys skipped the episode where the army guys told Tatsuya NOT to use classified magics. So he isn't going to use elemental eyes or decomposition, not with all those witnesses. As for Flash Cast the Yotsuba Clan won't let him use it either. Tatsuya can't disobey Maya so for right now yes Gram Demolition is his trump card. Tatsuta is a soldier who doesn't disobey orders whether it be from the army or Maya Yotsuba

that's not what I am saying.....think of it as a fake out. Yes we the audience of the series knows that more than likely Gram Demo is his only trump card. And for the most part that is true. However as a player in the game you don't know that tatsuya cant use certain abilities. But u do know he's a tech wizard and that he can use a highly power counter magic spell that he used as a 'throw away card'. Would you be cautious or emboldened by this. Most should be thinking, 'What else can he do' and these two ppl don't. (ive read the ln so I know what will happen) And that mistake, underestimating their enemy is going to cost them.

In terms of pure swordfight Erika would push Mari to her limits or even probably beat her. But with magic redhead girl would be screwed. Mari is faster, stronger, more versatile and also is sword specialist.

CADS outsourced as long as they are within the competition specs are allowed.That's why Leo's are allowed,also specialized CADS are allowed,see Shizuku's CAD that has Phonon Maser,it's a specialized CAD.

I was reffering to hardware. Of course her CAD was specialised, but it's possible to replace spell in it. On the other hand Leo's swordlike CAD was created only to use certain one spell and it's not possible to just switch it to another.

How are they underestimating him when they even wanted to see his face and noted that they should be wary of his tricks? Gram Demolition is his trump card because his Decomposition is classified and forbidden by the rules.

His only powerful magic attacks are variant of Decomposition.

Mikihiko screentime ehehehehe yes pls
Miyuki and Erika will form a big brother defense squad soon. I can feel it.
Third High's enemies were like "Crush himmmm" but then Masaki was like "EH NOPE". I wonder what will the outcome for their match against First High.

yes but its not going to be easy and these two guys lay a role in the next arc so might as well get introduced to them now

It's true that he can't use any advanced spells as the Yotsuba commanded him but I don't see any other ways to confront that prince. Tatsuya can't use any physical attacks and his opponents are bunch of high-ranked magician. An inferior magician like Tatsuya won't stand a chance against the prince! Tatsuya will definitely win but I don't think this game with pass smoothly. There will be a lot of unexpected accidents. I'll really looking forward to the game.

@satan-sama
and that's really the sad thing is Tatsuya isn't really an 'inferior magician' just all the limiters and restrictions placed on him makes impossible to true show his stuff. Or ppl are jealous/ envious of his abilities and have taken steps to cage or bridle his power so that he can be controlled.

I must say I have enjoyed a few of these competitions and these code breakers were pretty good. Still not a fan of the MC or much of the cast in all honesty but the show has improved when it comes to entertainment and it is getting better at describing things without being totally dry.

Crimson Prince and Cardinal George may look like top class magicians or at least formidable oponents for MC only because viewers don't know much about Tatsuya abilities.

This was a lot better than most of the episodes of this show that've been airing recently. I enjoyed seeing the Crimson Prince tanking all that stuff in the battle armor. As always, I can't really like the brocon stuff. It's just... yucky.

Why the need to mention Tatsuya here in the first place? In the story, Masaki and George are still top class magicians no matter how you twist it. Even the only (possible) potential threats for Tatsuya are still far ahead in story so let's just say that he's in a league of his own right now.
