| Oh. There are many asses to kick including Sugita's? I say he kicked a big ass this time. |
 |
| I was not expecting the part where Miyuki was clinging to Tatsuya. |
| Why the hell would you end the episode in the middle of a fast-paced fight? |
This topic has not been locked and is still available for discussion. |
| Tatsuya still as badass as ever. He isn't even getting started. So this wraps up volume 1 of the novels if I'm not mistaken. Madhouse is doing this at a fast pace. Can't wait for next week's episode. This show has been great so far. |
| Impressive fighting. I'm not a fan of that cliffhanger ending, but we all know how the fight's going to end so it's not as big of a deal as it otherwise would be. That stoic expression on Tatsuya's face as Miyuki undresses... Overall, solid episode. I appreciate how Tatsuya just takes all the crap the Blooms throw at him with a straight face and kicks their asses. |

It seemed more like a slaughter. - Calibration for CAD was done in a rather interesting way with the Tatsuya auto skill scene making the scene worth it in the end. Most of the episode felt like a showcase of various types of magic from the psion control enabled via Loop Cast system to the Oscillation Type Close Combat Sonic Blade of the Kenjutsu club. Animation studio is doing an excellent job in the effects area with the displays and the modern sci fi simulations of the magic for visual explanations to the various particles and coloring employed when magic activated. Its so minor but so impactful for making everything shine in motion. |

| Things got pretty badass at the end there. |
| I absolutely love the OP for this series. Tatsuya is so badass, but it was weird for the ep to end in the middle of the fight, wanted to see Tatsuya kick their asses! |

| They didn't explain much of the info compared to when I read the manga. It is really cool that Tatsuya used that to the Kenjutsu members. Although it ended in a cliffhanger again. Looks like they are speeding up the pace now. |

gamer2710 said: Why the hell would you end the episode in the middle of a fast-paced fight? Yeah that was a really abrupt way to end the episode. Stupid club members don't seem to understand that their captain is being taken away because he used magic while Mibu didn't. Funny how discrimination can cloud your view so much like that. |
| Now that was amazing. I don't know how much anime only viewers will get from the explanation but I thought it was a pretty good explanation (As an LN reader) And Dat A-chan Fangriling XDXD The part in the discipline committee room was nice. Loved seeing the Senpai's liking Tatsuya :D And Tatsuya's such can't live in a room in a mess XD Dat Miyuki scene! DAT BODY *A*, DAT MIYUKI BOOB PRESS *A*, And DAT BLUSH <3 Miyuki SO LEWD >.< And that OST made the already lewd scene even lewder XD, It fit the atmosphere feel so much XD Tatsuya's reaction was so lol "Mushi Mushi Miyuki-san" XD And u don't want to make Miyuki mad or jealous XD DAMN! YANDERENESS OVERLOAD hahaha. Definitely gonna be the topic of conversation this ep XD I didn't expect Tatsuya's self repair to be voiced by him. I expected a mechanic voice. DAT ERIKA SCENE!! ERIKA KAWAIIII <3 How she hurt herself after kicking his leg was adorable :3 And finally Mibu and Kirihara (DAT SUGITA) make their debut :D Loved the animation of their fight. Loved the way Tatsuya owned Kirihara so much!! LIKE A BOSS :D And Loved the OST! And the way he was owning the whole kendo club alone ^^ FAIL hahaha |

| Sooo... Episode 3 with its potentially controversial scene... was not as bad as I thought it would be, the scene, I mean. The episode felt so short, like where on earth did the time go? What I liked: The explanation for why Tatsuya won the duel was cool. I liked seeing the psion wave animated. Plus there was a lot less awe by the viewers, which I liked. There's no need for too many "Wows" and "Amazings." Suzune's voice felt like it finally matched the character. Azusa's ravings about the Silver Horn and Taurus Silver was understated, which I preferred. Hattori still didn't acknowledge Tatsuya's presence, only exchanging an intense stare with him; but he did apologize to Miyuki and vise versa so that counts for something... The scene with Miyuki and Tatsuya at home with the CAD calibration was definitely done better than in the manga where he was a lot more frazzled. I'm so happy the anime seems to be following the LN and not the manga. I didn't think Tatsuya's restoration would be done in his own voice, which I should have because otherwise, whose voice was I expecting to hear? :) I liked how it was done. There wasn't too much time spent on it in order to hit you over the head with but not too little so you wouldn't know it was important in some way. And I'll say it again to clarify it to myself: I hate Morisaki with a passion! I seriously can't stand his scenes. The only thing that makes them worthwhile to see is Tatsuya's obvious uninterest in talking with him. I'm not an Erika shipper so I don't especially like any scenes with her in it but I do love how Tatsuya was emotionless even when he glimpsed her a bit undressed. Whoa, Kirihara's voice wasn't at all what I imagined! It was so much better! His cockiness really did match his voice. Oh and Sayaka and Tsukasa were also introduced, marking the beginning of the latter part of the Enrollment Arc. Then, Tatsuya's awesome moves finally animated and I couldn't have asked for more. I especially liked the glimpse of cast jamming , so cool. What I didn't Like: Tatsuya's monologues still preempted. What on earth is going on? Why would they not take the chance to show his inner thoughts? Anyway, great episode. Volume 1 done in 3 episodes is a good pace. Waiting for episode 4 with bated breath :) I'm also hoping the haters who gave this the 3-episode rule will be dropping it before Episode 4, raising my level of enjoyment exponentially higher |

| Without the expositions and inner thoughts animated, the scenes seemed rather fast paced in a way lol, not that I'm complaining anyway. Regardless, they managed to cover all fundamental scenes for this particular chapter at least so it's all good, though it may still confuse some that never read the novels. |
| I'm not a fan of incestuous themes in anime but the ones in this series so far, has been ridiculously alluring ... |
| Pretty dull. |
| Tatsuya, 2014's badass! Miyuiki might like her brother a bit to much *wink* Love the fight music, want to download that. |
| +Wincest!! lol ahh that scene was fun to watch I don't think that happened in the light novels though did it? I know it happened in the manga but I'm not too sure if it happened or not in the light novels. It was a good episode though the info dump was handled nicely imo but they should have explained more in depth about psions and CADs before this episode, it would have helped a lot of the anime only viewers understand more about the concept of applying magic. It was a pretty good episode overall but I feel like they should have ended it off in a different way instead. Reallly loving the osts too for mahouka who ever is in charge of the music, props to you my friend. |

Takuan_Soho said: As someone who hasn't read the novels, I think most of the scene with Miyuki felt unnecessary (except of course for it being visually stimulating), particularly since it was followed up with the scene with the new girl; the combination detracting from both scenes, making them seem like pure fanservice rather than having a point. I get the scene with Miyuki was a data dump, and I will freely admit I did not get why she thought that was a 'prank' or what actually happened to Tatsuya, but without knowing what it means, it just seemed like wasted space that could have been used more effectively in explaining certain other things (like for instance the meaning behind Moritani being "faculty appointed" and maybe a little bit more world setting). I mean with them waving the incest flag so much, it's not the viewers fault if they think that is what this show is about. . The scene with Miyuki is arguably the most important part of this episode. It foreshadows stuff that will come into play soon. Hope that isn't spoilery at all... |
| Mixed feelings about this episode. I get the feeling Madhouse are gonna fuck up this adaptation sooner or later. The ending was pretty rushed. Why do they keep cutting out Tatsuya's badass monologues. Stop screwing up Tatsuya's character. Morisaki "Next time I won't be so careless." Tatsuya "Next time." Huh. "Its a nice thought, to believe in a next time. If it was a real battlefield, there wouldn't be a next time." Why the hell did they cut the fight like that? It never happen like that in the LN. |
 |
| very good episode have high hopes for this series and BTW Winsest for is winner :) |
| That guy know how to make ennemies :P But he also own everyone so easily... It's funny because from what he say, he suck at using magic, but he seem to have perfectionned a way to neutralize their magic and be very good at martial art, so he sure is supperior to them. Mmmm, that sweet incest fantasy Miyuki have. And her seiyu voice is so sexy... :3 ''Did you saw it..?'' ''Yes, sorry.'', woah, woah, woah, did we saw an honest response from a protagonist to that question? I'm so habituated to the obvious lie ''NO!'' that it surprised me :O I don't think that Tatsuya is overpowered. From what I see, everyone always end up using magic because it make it more easy, but when someone restrict your access to magic, it's normal that you become suddenly a punching bag. When you focus on only one fighting style, at the moment it get out of your confort line, you will totally suck. That mean that if at one point Tatsuya will not be able to cancel the magic of someone, he'll be in big trouble... |

| Moar wincest. |
| That scene with Miyuki and Tatsuya was a bit weird... really incest feels... and self repair spell? is having that considered normal? oO |
| Tatsuya sure is good. Considering the captain's reaction to seeing him fight means he's quite capable himself. Interested in seeing how this is going to develop. I'm liking it thus far. |
| For those who seek perfection, there can be no rest on this side of the grave. Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment. |
| Tetsuya's awesome. He is just dancing around those guys at the end there. |
 |
| I'm quite happy I'm not the only one that think the animation of fighting and is good and when he disabled people other magic Even thought it was a fast pacing fight it was great. :) |

| I'm not going to lie, I think this so far has been fairly well animated for those who're approaching the series for the first time. But as someone who's had some familiarity with the LN and the manga, it really comes off as if they're cutting out a lot of material that, while not completely necessary, would've really helped this series along. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a complete purist when it comes to adaptations. On the other hand, some dialogue are cut out where it would've only taken fewer than 5 seconds to execute so it's not even a length issue. If Madhouse is concerned about budget, it simply shouldn't take on a project as big as Mahouka. Just to name one example, when Morisaki and Tatsuya had that conversation after being named members of the disciplinary committee: Ophis said: Again, not completely necessary, but it was a huge quote in terms of Tatsuya's characterization and it just disappeared.Morisaki "Next time I won't be so careless." Tatsuya "Next time." Huh. "Its a nice thought, to believe in a next time. If it was a real battlefield, there wouldn't be a next time." |
| Loving the action in this. But it sucks that the most interesting parts always happen at the very end of an episode. |
| Pretty good episode. I get tired of waiting every week for another episode then the good part is at the end but I don't wanna wait till it's done airing. To many months to wait/ |
 |
| Yup quite satisfied myself with this adaption. They didn't cut back on the necessary explanations and the fighting was top-notch. And for Tatsuya - kinda starting to see him as comparible to Accelerator. Not on terms of personality or his absolute power level, but in him acceling in analyzing and difficult on-the-fly-calculations. |
 |
| That incest was delicious Otherwise, a mediocre episode as always. I still hate the main character although he was somewhat badass in the fighting scene. |
 |
| god.. this anime is epic so far.. badass protagonist, hidden powers, some incest |
 |

| 1. Miyuki making her advances on tatsuya was super hawt 2. That technical words thru me off. For a show like this, it's worth looking up 7/10 |

| The MC is so overpowered that it kind of removes the possible tension from any encounter. He's so far above everyone else that I do hope at some point there is something that presents a challenge to him. I get the feeling that Miyuki will be very jealous throughout the course of this series. Her bro is going to be a serious girl magnet |

| Damn this episode went by fast... Tatsuya pwning dem noobs 5/5 |

| Lol that fight at the ending. It just shows us how overpowered Tatsuya is xD |
