EasyGo-er said: Ep 9 Preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFHqaduD6ps I'm curious to see how will they animate all the spirits since I don't remember if it was shown in the LNs. Anyone wants to guess how much they will adapt for ep 9? I for one, think that they would adapt up to the first quarter of chapter 4, ending in the middle of the accident. Though this would mean it will take 2 chapters for the episode, the ending is perfect that I think they might just go with it. We get to see Mikihiko and some Mizuki this time. And that magic of Mikihiko looks nicely animated. Really hope MadHouse adapts this arc splendidly. |

Judging from the preview, I guess they wanted to make the 'All hell breaks loose' part as a surprise XD |

Those parts were in the LN and manga..........but still pointless and could easily be skipped. I just hope they keep some of the important scenes regarding Erika and Mikihiko intact (just my wishing thinking i guess). |

While there may be fanservice that is usually used in anime, which people shouldn't be surprised about. There's nothing we can do about it. Though we also see scenes that contain important information. In the end though I'm just gonna watch this episode. We also get Erika in a maid outfit which is so a big plus :) |

Judging from the review, it is going to be a full action episode next, a chance for the other characters to shine. Hope they don't left out the conversations between Tatsuya and Mayumi there ;) |

3 volumes for 12 episodes, seems like the usual LN adaptations, not too rushed and not too slow either. That means Vol. 1,2,3,4,6,7 will take up 24 episodes + 2 chapters from Vol. 5 will take up 2 episodes = 26 episodes. :) |

And since the next episode is the start of the competition, I just hope its animated well. |

Annnd here it is, Ep 12 Preview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GM-enfL8Sr8 We knew Mari's scene will be covered in the first half, but they really didn't bother to show anything else did they? :/ Vol 3 will be finished in the first half probably and we'll be entering Vol 4 for the second half, just wondering where will they end the ep, maybe at Honoka's or Shizuku's match. Can't wait for our trio debut in the competition, I'm guessing we'll see them in ep 14 or ep 15 depending on how they pace the next few chapters since they're pretty long too. |

You might've forgotten that lots of things happened before we get to the Monolith Code event. I'd say it would be near the end of ep 14 or in ep 15 that we'll see him in his first match. |

As I thought, Morisaki will have "accident", because Tatsuya needs to shine. Predictable. But, there were also two guys with him, so who will support Tats and Mikihiko? |

jakkubus said: Um, WUT? But he is Weed. Also why anyone hasn't noticed anything about TS thing Hm, well, I can't remember what school Morisaki faced in Monolith Code, but the opposition used A-Rank magic (I think) which is forbidden in the 9SC. Thus the opposition were disqualified, and with Morisaki's team injured, Katsuto (Juumonji) went to ask the committee (in charge of the 9SC) whether they can be allowed for another team to participate.The 3rd years asked Tatsuya to be a part of that, and also allowed him to choose his own team mates. Since both Miki and Leo are his classmates - he's been around them more, and he's know them better than any of the other males, that was really the safest option. Plus, in the LN he stated it was also because of their abilities. Of course, some people like Hattori (I think.. lol) tried to object to it, but a third year stopped him and allowed for Tatsuya to have those two as his team mates. They wouldn't really have the time to be searching for other team mates anyway, as they need to strategize, and have their CADs re-calibrated or w/e they call it in a short amount of time. - Uh, not sure if that helped, in fact I feel like I rambled on about pointless stuff but whatever Uh, honestly, I've got no damn clue. The only reason Azusa realises that Tatsuya is perhaps TS is because someone shouts "It's as if we're fighting against Taurus Silver out here!" and she also remembers what Tatsuya said earlier in the arc: "Wouldn't it be funny if TS was a teenager like the rest of us?" And then of course all the insane things he's been doing in the 9SC further confirms her suspicions. Well anyway, the bloody clues were all there, especially in that scene I just mentioned, with Miyuki's reactions to Azusa's and Tatsuya's conversation back in the student council room. (This is all from memory, cbs going to baka-tsuki and checking it lol) |

Ah, the word safest is my own choice of words, not from the LN. You know what..I don't think I'll be able to word it correctly, so.. I'll just take what was said in the LN and chuck it in a spoiler. You can make your own assumptions based on it. (Wall of text incoming) In the end, Mirage Bat for the Newcomers Division turned out just as Tatsuya predicted, with Honoka and Subaru in sole possession of First and Second Place. Immediately after the end of the match, Tatsuya was summoned to the conference room without any opportunity to partake in the fruits of victory. Inside, the upperclassmen waiting for Tatsuya were wholly unlike his (female) peers who were delirious with joy, upperclassmen who were the utter masters of their emotions and hid them beneath solemn expressions. Mayumi, Mari, Katsuto, Suzune, Hattori, Azusa. Everyone from high command in First High was present. In addition, Kirihara and Isori were also on the flanks. Given that team members just suffered serious injuries, it was only natural that they could not appear delighted, but even so their expressions were a little stiff — as if dreading what was coming next. Especially Hattori, who apparently was at wit's end about what expression to adopt, so he chose to form a mask with his own face, with a thoroughly ill at ease expression. This could not turn out well, so Tatsuya mentally fortified himself. "Good work. Thanks to you, we obtained a far better result than any we could've hoped for." Mayumi used a normal — more like official — choice of words. Before she said this, Tatsuya's keen senses picked up how she and Katsuto exchanged a glance in a blink of an eye. "That's all thanks to the players' diligence." Tatsuya also replied back in a vague fashion. He hadn't felt this sort of tense atmosphere since he first enrolled here. "Of course, credit is due to Mitsui-san and Satomi-san as well as all the other students who tirelessly trained to achieve this result. However, everyone acknowledges that Tatsuya-kun's contribution is nothing short of outstanding. We didn't suffer a single setback in any of the three events you were responsible for...... In terms of points, the fact that we are guaranteed at least Second Place in the Newcomers Division is all thanks to Tatsuya-kun." "......Thank you very much." Tatsuya executed a short and prudent bow. They kept their eyes from matching as they waited for the other person to speak. Yet, Mayumi didn't cut to the chase. Tatsuya slowly raised his eyes to find Mayumi using her eyes to stop Katsuto. There appeared to be something difficult to speak of that Katsuto wanted to clarify. What was it that warranted such a level of indecision? Finally noticing that Tatsuya was intently watching her, Mayumi seemed to cave and briefly shut her eyes. "As I said earlier, even if we withdrew from Monolith Code, we are still guaranteed Second Place in the Newcomers Division. Right now, there's a 50 point difference between First High and Third High. If Third High takes Second Place or higher in Monolith Code, they would take First Place overall in the Newcomers Division. We would retain First Place if they only achieve Third Place or below." This way, there wouldn't be a huge gap in the rankings for the Newcomers Division, which was Tatsuya's objective all along for the combined score. So what were they so anxious about? Also, why was he summoned in the first place? Tatsuya was also starting to fret now. "Before the Newcomers Division, didn't we assume this would be enough......" Mayumi could already detect his growing displeasure from his voice. In the midst of her suppressed expression, there were hints of a slightly harried look. What came out was an anxious, frantic voice. "Since we've come so far," Even so, she wasn't settling down to re-examine the situation, but rushing for the finish line. At this point, Tatsuya finally realized what they were going to ask of him. "We wish to charge for First Place overall in the Newcomers Division." At some point, Mayumi's tone had reverted to her normal level. "Are you aware that Third High is dispatching Ichijou Masaki and Kichijouji Shinkurou for Monolith Code?" At Mayumi's question, Tatsuya replied with a succinct "Yes". "Exactly...... Setting aside Ichijou-kun for the moment, Tatsuya-kun may know more about the details surrounding Kichijouji-kun. With those two teaming up, the chances of them being upset in the elimination round is extremely remote. If we withdraw from Monolith Code, our chances of triumphing in the Newcomers Division vanish as well." So, they wanted him— "So Tatsuya-kun...... May we rely on you to replace Morisaki-kun and the others in Monolith Code?" —The "thing" that Mayumi wanted him to do coincided exactly with what Tatsuya surmised. "......May I ask two questions?" "Of course, what is it?" He was already 90% certain, but this was a good opportunity to verify things, Tatsuya thought. "There are still two matches in the preliminary round that have been extended until tomorrow, correct?" "Yes, you're right. Owing to this, tomorrow's schedule will change as well." "I thought that replacing players are forbidden even if the starters suffered injuries?" "After carefully considering the situation, a special exception was made." What an unsurprising answer. Still, even if all these answers were anticipated, accepting them was an entirely different story. "......Why me?" This was no question, but a subtle rejection in and of itself. It was just that he was facing upperclassmen, so he had to at least observe the forms and could not simply say "No". Mayumi probably predicted that Tatsuya would answer this way and still hadn't come up with a method to persuade him, hence she kept beating around the bush. Currently, she wore a forced smile pasted on her miserable expression. "I just thought that Tatsuya-kun was the strongest candidate......" "Disregarding your grade in technical skills, in live combat ability alone you are undoubtedly the mightiest among the 1st Year male students." Mari, who until this moment had left the negotiations to Mayumi, noticed that the situation was turning bleak from Mayumi's vague response, and threw her weight behind the "persuading" side. "Monolith Code is not 'live combat' — it is a 'magic competition' where hand to hand combat is forbidden. I'm sure everyone is well aware of this without me pointing it out." Despite this, Tatsuya still didn't capitulate. "On magical fighting strength, I think you are also in the highest tier as well." Mari glanced at Hattori, who knitted his brows with a thoroughly miserable expression. This was a merciless, but effective angle of attack, so Tatsuya was forced to abandon his excuse of being "incapable". However, he still had another card up his sleeve. "But I'm not a player. In terms of replacements, we should still have other players that have only competed in one event." Now, even Mari was at a loss. "Even if we ignored the pride from the Course 1 students, by grabbing a replacement 'player' from the ranks of the 'auxiliaries', you would damage the confidence of future participants as well." This was probably the issue that was causing them the most headaches and also the one they didn't want to address. The Newcomers Division did wonders for educating new students. Even if they triumphed this year, they could not guarantee that this would not negatively impact the Official Division in the ensuing years, which was essentially putting the cart in front of the horse. If the replacement for one of the primary players turned out to be an auxiliary, and a Course 2 student to boot, this would have a shattering impact on not just the other players, but also the pride of the collective body of Course 1 students. Mayumi and the others had no rejoinder for this. He was the master of the field, Tatsuya judged. Now was the time for him to tactfully decline and bow out, and— "Don't be naive, Shiba!" Katsuto's booming voice rang out. For a time, Tatsuya was unable to respond. He was temporarily unable to discern exactly why he was being scolded. While it was true that his words were sophistry laden with logic, it was logic nonetheless. If they deployed him, even if victory over Third High wasn't attainable, Second Place in Monolith Code was still possible. The difference between gold and silver in Monolith Code was a paltry 40 points. If they captured Second Place, then they would likely carry the Newcomers Division. But in that case, no matter how you sliced it, Tatsuya would become the key contributor that made the Newcomers Division victory possible. This would be an absolutely unacceptable result to the Course 1 students still dwelling in their elitist world. Even if he was eliminated during the preliminary round, they would not suffer a Course 2 student like him to represent them in Monolith Code. "You are already a member of the representative team." However, Katsuto's words fell precisely on the weakest point of Tatsuya's defense. "Regardless of whether you are a player or auxiliary, that is not important. You are one of the 20 representatives selected out of the 200 1st Year students." Katsuto's alternate meaning. In other words, Tatsuya's presence had already dealt a huge blow to the Course 1 students and brought about severe shock and panic. "In light of this emergency, our leader Saegusa has selected you as the replacement. As a member of the team, once you have accepted this responsibility, you also have the obligation to fulfill your duty as a member." "But......" Even so, he still had to respond. Otherwise, they...... "As a member, you should not go against your leader's decisions. If the judgment was erroneous, then we who aid the leadership will bring it to a halt. Members other than ourselves have no place to object. Indeed...... Regardless of whether it's myself, the person in question, whoever!" Tatsuya stared at him blankly and dropped what he was going to say. Tatsuya finally comprehended what Katsuto really wanted to express. The message Katsuto was driving across was that regardless of who objected and regardless of what the outcome was, the brass would take full responsibility for the fallout. "Do not cower, Shiba. Do not worry that you are a substitute. Since you have been selected, go out there and do your duty." These words were not just restricted to the Nine Schools Competition. The Nine Schools Competition never had a replacement policy in the first place. —Do not use your status as a Course 2 student as an escape route. —Do not look for excuses. —Do not put yourself in a position of weakness and wallow in despair. Do not worry that you are a substitute — that's what this meant. Do not concern yourself with your substitute (Weed, Course 2 student) status, these are what those words entailed. All his egress routes had been denied. Also — since they've already gotten to this point, he had no plans to back down. "......Understood. I shall do my best." Mayumi and Mari both relaxed. Katsuto solemnly nodded. "Then, who are my teammates?" In front of the upperclassmen, his tone was noticeably softer. To be precise, he was intentionally using a firmer tone than usual up until now. "That's up to you." "Ah......?" Tatsuya was not feigning ignorance. He was once again unable to comprehend what was being said. "The last two members will be decided by you." The same instructions were repeated in a different manner. Katsuto added a few words as if he had just thought of something. "It would be best if you could decide now, but if you need some more time to consider, then come back an hour from now." Hearing Katsuto's words, Tatsuya almost blurted out, "You're just the same." This was the case in April when they sacked "Blanche's" base. He gave full authority to an underclassman as if nothing was out of the ordinary. If he could avoid taking full responsibility, then this would only be a tactic to preserve himself. Yet for Katsuto, the only thing he had was responsibility here, so there's no reason he could treat this so cavalierly. Rather than calling this a byproduct of his leadership training, it may be more appropriate to say this was his nature...... Abandoning these useless thoughts, Tatsuya focused back on the topic at hand. "No, if I just need to choose, I don't need any time......" Tatsuya had already selected two replacements in his head from the roster. "I just don't know if they will agree." "Let us handle that." ......Again, refusing was not an option. Today was the first time Tatsuya learned that the eldest son of the Juumonji Family had such a forceful personality. "Is anyone alright? Even if I choose people from outside the team?" Tatsuya's mood lightened considerably as if he was allowed to be as frivolous as possible. "Eh? That's a little......" "That's fine. This is already an unprecedented exception, so by now, no one will care if two more are added." "Juumonji-kun......" Mayumi helplessly glanced at Katsuto. On his part, Katsuto was wholly unperturbed by this. "Then, I choose Yoshida Mikihiko from Class 1-E and Saijou Leonhart, also from Class 1-E." "Hey, Shiba!?" Hattori quickly tried to interject, but was held back by Suzune's raised hand. "That's fine. Nakajou." "Yes, present!" Katsuto didn't bat an eyelid at Azusa's exaggerated response. "Please call Yoshida Mikihiko and Saijou Leonhart here. The two of them should be at this hotel, though not with the normal cheering squads." At first glance, he was bold and unconstrained — while this was also true, he was also someone who paid attention to the minute details. That being said, it was true that unofficial members and students that weren't part of the cheering squads and were also residing in this hotel did count as oddities. For people doing their due diligence, this was something worthy of devoting some attention to, so it was hardly surprising that he knew. Even so, Tatsuya was still impressed with Katsuto's knowledge. "......Tatsuya-kun. Can you tell us why you chose them?" Since she abandoned the responsibility for persuading Tatsuya to Katsuto, Mari was in no position to object at this point. Nevertheless, she was still unable to accept this answer, maybe even suspicious that something was afoot as she asked this. "Of course. A big reason is that I have practically not trained or interacted with any of the male team members." Tatsuya was only responsible for calibrating the Women's team, so it was true that he had never observed any of the men practicing. "I am utterly unfamiliar with their proficiency and weaknesses. The competition is tomorrow. It is by far too late to start investigating, devising strategies, or doing calibration." "......Do you know these two very well?" "Yes. We're not just in the same class — we also understand each other very well." "Hm...... You have a point. Since we can rely on other technicians for calibration, if teammates don't understand each others' strengths and weaknesses, teamwork would become a serious issue." As Mari considered this, she suddenly revealed a completely unexpected, mischievous expression. "Then, that's not the biggest reason, so what is it?" At Mari's curious question, Tatsuya didn't hesitate and immediately made a stand. "Ability." "Wha?" This intrepid answer caused Mari, Mayumi, Katsuto, and Suzune to look upon Tatsuya with profound interest. |

Light said: "I thought that replacing players are forbidden even if the starters suffered injuries?" "After carefully considering the situation, a special exception was made." What an unsurprising answer. And some people say that Mahouka world's rules are not bended for Tatsuya... |
No wonder, dragon with no head must be retarded. |
