I'm finding the episodes this arc somewhat emblematic, Tatsuya and Miyuki are having too little focus, hardly appeared in this episode, it seems that they are just observing and do nothing, hope the two, especially Tatsuya appear more ..

Funny how someone else than MC did typical for harem MC hijinks
Tatsuya would just backhand them for daring to scream.

As of 27/7/14 I have decided trap anime Sword Art Online II has more appeal than Mahouka.

Yups, indeed. ErikaxLeo's moment was pretty much ok but that Mikihikio's scene is pretty much useless. 5 episodes left and there are too many materials in the LN which going to be messed up if Madhouse rushed everything. It's either going to be ended with cliffhanger or everything will be rushed up like i wrote earlier. If it's going to be ended with cliffhanger, the OP of the show is pretty much deceiving LOL

I usually get pissed off when I see some other dude besides the MC, making moves on other girls.. must be the effect of all those harem shows I've seen but this show is different. I don't care who's in love with who.. Tatsuya is alpha as fuck and it's all that matters.

All those harem-style hijinks with the secondary cast. Felt way out of place, but at least it was a slight twist from the norm. All this episode was missing was Tatsuya somehow managing the classic ero-fall with an ecstatic Miyuki :P

Not really. The Erika and Leo ship already set sail since the series started and is still going strong. Mizuki and Mikihiko ship has set sailed recently also.

Tat only has Mayumi and Honoka really I guess. Mibu's gone and I'm pretty sure he doesn't have any romantic feelings towards Miyuki.

I feel sorry for Tatsuya, Leonhart and Mikihiko has more free time than he does.

Above all, Tatsuya can't be really aroused from seeing females embarrassing parts.
But, Leonhart and Mikihiko have that.

Based on Tatsuya's backgrounds, I was wondering he would be more happier if he lived in similar condition as Leonhart's and Mikihiko's at least.

I can't say Leonhart and Mikihiko lived an ordinary life considering the time is not exactly in peaceful moment, but Tatsuya's life is way too cruel.

And Erika commenting that Leo looked like he was assaulting the girl. Hahaha. XD

I think she didn't have almost any lines whatsoever, so that explains it :)

Anyway, what a complete waste of 20 minutes. I mean, I love watching Erika, but this was still underwhelming. Got a chuckle here and there but that's not really the reason I'm watching this show.

Just like everyone says, it's a 'shipping' episode. Erika fanservice spotted. Mizuki and Mikihiko got their turns as well. Mizuki was cute when she reacted. Surprisingly, Tatsuya was not entirely exposed this episode. That guy who Mikihiko bumped in to, I wonder who's he?

The shipping is definitely real in this episode. So is the fan service. Also, the best one, another lack of onii-sama!!
Slow progress for now, we got a little sister who wants to try to sabotage Tatsuya (even she knows it's useless lol) and the guy Ichihara didn't call for the presentation team getting real mad. Pretty sure it was him at the end. Wonder what he's gonna try next.

All these no "no progression" comments are stupid, it's called developing character (I guess everyone here hates One Piece) and set up, and how about paying attention-

- The disciplinary guy was looking at the data, he may be a traitor.
- Lu is jealous of Zhou, that may escalate to something.
- Erika basically saying Tatsuya is the brain of the group and Leo doesn't want to be a burden on Tatsuya.
- Leo saying he's a wuss, what happened to him?
- Juumonji taking interest in Mikihiko, what will he do?
- The guy at the end may be the disciplinary guy.
- Chiaki, Mikihiko, Mizuki, Erika and Leo development.

What a great development. They changed so much...

But where is any deveopment here?

For me it looked rather like wariness.
- Erika basically saying Tatsuya is the brain of the group and Leo doesn't want to be a burden on Tatsuya.

Tatsuya is brain, heart, muscles, dick and anything else of the group. Anyone else is mere decoration.
- Leo saying he's a wuss, what happened to him?

He compared himself to Mr. T.
- Juumonji taking interest in Mikihiko, what will he do?

Yaoi!

Um, so what?

Fantastic episode as usual. Mikihiko demonstrated some strength against Juumonji. Miki and Mizuki moments were funny, they are both so awkward but incredibly sweet together. The guys imagination about what what was happening between Leo and Erika was hilarious. Also Leo almost spearing Chiaki, "overkill", just a tad :) 10/10 episode as usual.

Tatsuya is one of the worst anime protagonists. Even Makoto is better.

DEVELOPING CHARACTER AND PERSONALITIES, WHAT DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THEM BEFORE?


Well, there is almost no character development at all in Mahouka and in 21 episodes they developed as much as in first one.

THAT'S THE SET UP FOR A BETRAYAL OF THE SCHOOL AND HIS FRIENDS, MAYBE, I DON'T KNOW IF HE'S A TRAITOR.


That's not development. Those are just your assumptions.

THAT TOO, CHEN IS TOO BIG AND MANLY XD

No comment...

MIYUKI <3 <3 <3


... is second worst character in Mahouka. Just after Tatsuya.

NO! :(


YES!

THE SET UP COMING TO FRUITION AND DEVELOPMENT FOR HIM (BEING A TRAITOR AND ALL)


It's rather poor development. :P

anyway ep wise we finally get an ecchi scene!!!(Too bad Erika stole "the 1st being seen topless by a male character" scene from Honoka,which was in vol 5 :( )

Chiaki's hatred for Tatsuya,and he did earn it,instead of doing something sooner after Mari's accident he only did something when Miyuki was the next target,but that was what is cool about him :)

Good episode, even i have to admit it was kinda refreshing without Tatsuya. Mainly potential ships and fanservice, but there was character progression, of course. It looks like we have a Tatsuya hater, haha, it's cute how she thinks she can even make him change his expression. Ah, the ignorance...

Mikihiko did well against Jumonji, really want to know the name of the soundtrack that plays when he made his move.

"Overkill?". Lol..

really liked this episode because it was not focusing just on tatsuya and they actually had character development in this chapter but in anime they kinda rushed it ..

it looks like they are doing 2 chapters per episode

there are like 7 chapters left in this arc and 5 episodes so they will be able to fit everything in i guess...

Mod Note: Removed some off-topic back-and-forth about another show and comments about some posters' individual lists. Please focus on the episode and the show, not each other.

Not a bad episode, as we got a hint that the girl is just a decoy and the real spy is someone else--probably the disciplinary committee member who looked like he was going to steal the tablet. I wouldn't mind if the Erika x Leo ship worked out, although I don't think she's given up on Tatsuya yet. Considering just how this society is structured, my guess is that he is going to be paired-off with someone from one of the ten clans (Mayumi) in an arranged marriage. A significant focus seems to be breeding stronger magicians, and not allowing power to slip out of the ten clans' hands, so unless Tatsuya leads a revolution of sorts that's the way it should work out.
Please don't feed the trolls!

The best thing about this episode is the fact that it focused on characters other than Tatsuya and Miyuki. Oh and, no Onii-sama! :D

It pulled a few cheesy, overused fan-servicey scenes though. The whole "male character stumbles in on female character when she's naked" and "male character tries to catch female character and grabs boob" stuff, I mean seriously? I've thought of Irregular to be a pretty clever anime so far, so seeing it descend to anime cliches like those is kind of disappointing.

One thing that bugs me is that Tatsuya is totally not involved in the interrogation of Hirakawa Chiaki, and is just generally out-of-the-loop when it comes to the security of the research project. He seems content to let other people concern themselves with what's going on, even though we're aware that there are some big players playing the board, attempting to do (something) to gain some sort of advantage for their own interests. Can Tatsuya not see the pieces moving, or is he merely biding his time?
