Publisher Fujimi Shobo has announced on their site that light novel series Kusen Madoushi Kouhosei no Kyoukan will receive a TV anime adaptation. More information on the anime adaptation will be given at later date.

Synopsis
"The story is set in a world where humanity, driven off the land by the threat of magical armored insects, now live in aerial floating cities. Thus wizards—aerial combat mages who fight the insects with magical powers—came into being.

Kanata Age is a young man who lives on the floating wizard academy city of 'Misutogan.' He was once celebrated as the 'Black Master Swordsman,' the elite ace of the S128 special team; however, he is now despised as the 'traitor of the special team.' One day, he is assigned as the instructor of E601, a team that has suffered 10 consecutive defeats. E601 has three girls—Misora Whitale, Lecty Eisenach, and Rico Flamel—with one or two peculiar quirks." (Source: ANN)

Another one of these wizard academy harem/(probably)ecchi shows? ... Idk it's getting old, can't LN writers come up with anything else?

But on a positive note,I like the floating city setting and I like the fact that the synopsis doesn't include something like "MC is the only male in the world or MC is a huge perv" So I'll give it a chance,maybe it will be better than it looks.

An academy school, three girls with quirks a harem, a self-insert male lead with "superpowers" just to make him look cool. Oh, light novels... why does mostly this crap and Shana clones get adapted damn it!?

it's kuusen (空戦) and not kusen (苦戦) BTW.

As for what this title is worth...
It received the gold prize in the 24th edition of the Fantasia Taisho.
source : http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ファンタジア大賞

Considering my tastes, that's not really a prize I can look forward to though. I'm not sure fantasia bunko ever published one single title interesting me (maybe full metal panic...?). Well, for those liking titles like date a live and high school dxd though, this title may be worth a shot.I heard the first volume had a lot of problem (editing wasn't done properly so grammar mistakes and so on remained) but it's not like it will have any incidence on its adaptation.

Just went and googled the title and only managed to find bunch of illustrations depicting several hot chicks in various sexually-suggestive positions with a lame-looking guy (whom i assume is the MC). That said, what's so wizard knight-whatever cool sounding premise of this series anyway?

Seriously, this medium almost looks like a complete joke at this point.

So the mc is a fusion of Rentarou and Kirito ?

And what the hell is with the harem setup ? I enjoyed reading the synopsis, until my eyes saw the "three girls with peculiar quirks" part -_-

"young man"
This was getting my hopes up just a little bit, until I googled the title. As expected, rather than a young man, he's just a little boy. I am thoroughly disappointed. Isn't there a LN like this that follows an actual man instead of a special snowflake boy?

Lately you always post my thoughts before me D:

Anyway: harem allusions, similar to Black Bullet and other QUALITY LN in terms of plot description, etc. - 2-3/10 in the making.

On the contrary, I find your comments are in dire need of some ointment to easy the pain. You also forgot at least 6 other people who are always here as well..that *might* just be because people are actually active in the news section, though. But nah, that is clearly impossible... but I like your crude consiparcy theories :D

there is nothing original about it. even the flying cities already done by blazblue.

Synopsis reminds me somewhat of Chrome Shelled Regios (large insects pushing humanity to the brink of extinction, big mobile cities, strong MC cast out from his environment due to performing socially unacceptable actions and joins a weaker squad). As long as it won't fall into the overused Harem tropes, then it might be worth watching. In the meantime I'll wait until further information is released

The novel is pretty new, only released last year. It's not even on the database yet(entry is still on queue).
Looks like a promotion of the novels via the anime given the timing so definitely just 1-cour.
I'll give it a shot because why not.

Generic is generic. Synopses are one thing but how the anime will turn out is another story.
I'm sorta used to these kind is cliche harems with a MC who probably has some insane OP stuff though so I'll probably watch it to the end.
I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN

I see that the LN adaptation refuses to die without a fight, but at least bring something better to the table, although I can't complain about the art this time, it is decent unlike the last one announced.

Hey if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I enjoy reading these generic harem settings with a strong protagonist every once in awhile. It's a light, fun read.

Anyway, I can barely find any other information about this series other than that there are 3 novels out, I think.

You mean the superpower superlucky young man, right.
And after read the synopsis.. "Kanata Age is a young man who lives on the floating wizard academy.." as always, I soooo dont feel like watching it when it comes to any anime or another anything else that set in magic or mage or magus or wizard academy.

No, because the target audience will feel alienated if the protagonist isn't a generic self-insert.

Anyway, I'll watch the first episode and see how it plays out, though I'm not really expecting anything out of it.

Ah, you're right, I completely missed that this one was from the same editor and got the big prize in 2009. I guess there is exception everywhere, there IS indeed a title I'm interested in in there. Although Kuusen Madoushi Kouhosei no Kyoukan looks less like Kamisama no inai nichiyoubi and more like the usual stuff that publisher does. A usual stuff that I have a hard time to appreciate.

Okay nevermind I take it back. It was sounding interesting until...^

I swear the vast majority of people here don't know what positivity and optimism are. So many hating on a LN adaptation before it's started and hating on LN adaptations in general. Same old tired responses from people who do not know better.

I will be watching, premise sounds good and LN adaptations I will always put at the top of the queue, they rarely let me down.
