 Tsutomu Satou's Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei (The Irregular at Magic High School) light novel will end its 12-year publication with the 32nd volume, according to a post by the series' official Twitter account on Wednesday. The final volume—Sacrifice-hen/Sotsugyou-hen (Sacrifice Arc/Graduation Arc)—is scheduled for a September 10 release.Synopsis In the dawn of the 21st century, magic, long thought to be folklore and fairy tales, has become a systematized technology and is taught as a technical skill. In First High School, the institution for magicians, students are segregated into two groups based on their entrance exam scores: "Blooms," those who receive high scores, are assigned to the First Course, while "Weeds" are reserve students assigned to the Second Course. Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei follows the siblings, Tatsuya and Miyuki Shiba, who are enrolled in First High School. Upon taking the exam, the prodigious Miyuki is placed in the First Course, while Tatsuya is relegated to the Second Course. Though his practical test scores and status as a "Weed" show him to be magically inept, he possesses extraordinary technical knowledge, physical combat capabilities, and unique magic techniques—making Tatsuya the irregular at a magical high school. [Written by MAL Rewrite] Satou originally published the sci-fi action novel on the Shousetsuka ni Narou website in 2008. Dengeki Bunko began printing the novel in July 2011, featuring illustrations by Kana Ishida (Shounen Maid, Wakaba*Girl). Kadokawa published the 31st volume on April 10 (pictured). Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei has a cumulative 15 million copies of its volumes in print. Hasumi Takeda began drawing the latest manga adaptation of the light novel in GFantasy magazine on March 18. The manga will cover the Shizoku Kaigi-hen (Master Clans Conference Arc), which spans from volumes 17–19. Madhouse produced a 26-episode television anime in Spring 2014, covering the first seven volumes. The Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei: Hoshi wo Yobu Shoujo (The Irregular at Magic High School The Movie - The Girl Who Summons The Stars) film by animation studio 8bit opened in Japan in June 2017. Aniplex of America licensed the anime series in North America and released it on three Blu-ray volumes in 2015. The company also screened the Hoshi wo Yobu Shoujo anime film in the United States theaters in July 2017 and released it on Blu-ray in July 2018. Funimation began streaming the film in the United States and Canada on April 21. Yen Press licensed the light novel in English in 2015 and published the 15th volume on April 7. The 16th volume is planned for a November 17 release. The Dengeki Bunko Aki no Namahousou Festival announced a second anime season last October, which was originally scheduled to air in Summer 2020, but was delayed to Fall 2020 in light of the new COVID-19. The second season, Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei: Raihousha-hen, will adapt volumes nine through eleven.

| Right, so the 2nd Season was pretty much just advertisement for this, huh? Well, not that I mind. 12 years of publication sure sounds like a lot though, congratulations to the creators! Here’s to hoping this’ll end on a bang and we will get more animated content in the future. |
#Anime4Life be my Life Motto! #PrayForKyoAni  |
| Hoping for full adaption of LN. Gonna catch up to LN. |
 |
| I really want to catch up to the latest volume but the official translations are really slow and I don't want MTL Well 32 volumes are on the higher side of any dengeki novel (not counting Index) |
| Onii-sama deserves a great end and hopefully a full adaptation. |
 |
| 32 volumes, that's a lot. I only know about it from the mal fans who post about how awesome onii-sama is and his harem. |

| I'm really going to miss Tatsuya haven't really read after vol 12 but well seems like gonna read it pretty soon. I hope the author will continue it like dxd author did and maybe he can learn something from to aru author lol. |
| Hmm... Well, we can now on a full adaption expect for sure... - but this means that we'll not more of Tatsuya and others have... It was a nice ride in the past years... G'gratulation for such interesting and cool work behind, props! Hmm... Just let's hope that we'll now from Kyoukaisenjou no Horizon have more (more seasons...) |

ysphyr said: Tatsuya x Miyuki for the win! That's the only ending I'll accept. Also wish Honoka dies in the end, nobody will miss her. I've never agreed so fully with a comment in my life. |
| 12 years is a lot. Congratulations for creating this work. I hope you will adapt everything soon. |
| Apaixonado por jogos e animes. |
