| Glenn the mage killer, doesn't sound that bad. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| This series kind of mixes Fate/Stay Night and Index but with its own magic system, and so far it's working for me. Also, Shironeko is best waifu. Hoping to learn more about Sensei's past. |

| Looks like Glenn went full Megumin with that attack against the skeletons... |
Tokoya said: The OP looks pretty great and the song was nice too As for the episode, for some reason I feel like maybe this was a bit too fast paced? (Any LN readers readers out there that can confirm if we ran through the material pretty fast or if anything noteworthy was skipped?) Either way, I really liked the way things played out in this episode with Glenn not exactly solo-ing everyone but rather, he needed help from both Sisti (Who was beyond cute in this episode btw) and Rumia in order to save the day....The chemistry and teamwork between him and Sisti especially was great and the spells they both did were rather impressive Overall, another great ep is in the books, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of Glenn's past as well as finding out more about this evil organization and some backstory for Rumia too....Plus based off of the OP, it looks like we'll be getting some new and interesting looking characters soon And I REALLY wanna know who the girl is that Glenn always thinks about with that tattoo....Also, I thoroughly enjoyed the actions scenes and bloody stuff in this ep and I'm happy to see that they don't shy away from killing people in this one Yup, they cut Glenn's past explanation into 3 cards |

And even so, would it still be possible for us to get this info about his past later on? It all depends whether it will be rearranged into the next few episodes I guess (But I don't think there's another ideal scene left to put it there). Still, the only info they gave was Glen's blood soaked hands and his trail of murdered bodies. Whereas the manga expands further for like half a chapter while the anime reduced it to a short scene (and the adapted ones were somewhere around 1 and a half page) |
| Kinda rushed but still enoyjable. I'm enjoying this anime more than I thought I would when seeing the first episode. |
DarcyD said: So freaking rushed omg. And having Rumia suddenly "save" him by being an Amplifier was kinda corny to me, but at least the good guys won Well, if she wasn't amplifier, she wouldn't be exiled and later kidnapped. It would really suck if her ability was just bait for wlvilains without any benefits, right? |
| hmm... not enough of Glen being a bastard. If Glen keeps acting more and more like a productive part of the magic society I'm going to have to drop this. Its the aspects that made him unlikable to the majority that made me like him. |
| My respect for Glenn after this chapter is off the charts, he was really awesome! Loved his teamwork with Sistine and their spells were great too :O Rumia helping Glenn at the end was beautiful, also lap pillow <3 Really bloody episode, didn't expect that. Loved that OP song at the end also, just now realised the other episodes had none lol. |

I just didn't find it impressive and thought the skill wasn't really thought out and actually was rather convenient to the plot when it could have been more kick ass and independently cool like white cat. |
Okay wtf is wrong with the right arm here? Looks soo awkward... Btw why did the guy who summoned the sacrifice circle just stand there and watch how sensei rescues her? I was face palming so hard. Like u for real bruh? Anyway decent episode. |
| One rare Magic School Anime that impress me... I hope it live up my expectation towards the end. Also the op and soundtracks in anime in amazing for now. |
 |
| Alright, Glenn is growing on me and his dynamic with Sisti is fun to watch. That moment when he pushed her over the ledge was great. The animation, or lack thereof, still bothers me. Glenn saving Rumia and proving once more, that he is more than a "bastard with no motivation" was cool to see. My biggest problem however is still the total lack of any new ideas. So far this is the same old magical school series we have seen hundreds of time. What keeps me going is Glenn, and his interactions with Sisti. I'm still looking forward to episode 4 though. /e: I totally forgot about Huey's idiot plan. He just stands there while it falls apart? Are you fuckin kidding me? /e2: I don't know why they don't make the ending song the opning, since there is none. That song rocks. |

Now you lost me. In what way having ability that attract kidnappers without any benefits doesn't suck? |
| Talk abut starting an episode with your pants down... Also, Glenn was pretty blue looking for a while there after using up his magic. I'm not too surprised that super-sweetie-best-girl Rumia was rescued, we have to get back to standard harem comedy afterall. |
  |
| This episode pulling a Emiya Shirou (Archer). I always wanted to be a hero (mage) of justice I enjoyed the action and finally we have the OP! Cute end card as always |
| Okay holy shit did not expect them to go from 0-100 on the murder and blood scale. Thats not what I signed up for watching this, but holy shit that was good. |
 |
| It keeps getting better, Glenn became more respectable after this episode, although I have to say that I already liked him before this episode. I also appreciate that he isn't too op and still needs the help of other characters. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| whats this, the MC is strong and weak in the same time. he can cast powerful magic, but lacks of mana. so how did he manage in the past? judging by some preview, he's known as strong magician killer, and yet this pathetic. |
| Wow the due took those swords like a champ, without batting an eye *kudos* |
 |
| I mean how the fuck did he not die, pretty much drained all his magic, which in this universe is pretty much life-force, then got impaled, not stabbed or pricked, but fucking IMPALED by four swords, and still didn't die!!?? This show has got some pretty strong plot armor, but it's fast paced and interesting enough that I'm probably just gonna binge watch it within two days then forget about it forever lol |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Well that was an impressive episode! Quite loved the development, let's see what's next! |
 |
| Got that Emiya vibe this episode. Also why was the dude just watching as he was breaking his spell...? Did I miss something??? |
 |
| Glenn was manly af, looks like he's becoming appreciated by the two girls |
 |
| Hah! I knew it, he's something else from his past. I bet the class don't know that their bastard substitute magic instructor is an Imperial Court Mages Corp mage killer and an acknowledged skilled one at that! Reik died before he can say what Glenn's codename was, hmmm that was interesting maybe it'll come back in the future episodes? |
| You see there's no need to wonder where your god is, Coz he's right here! ...and he's fresh out of mercy. |
| Glenn's finally up to the spotlight for now and is showing some "good" magic skills that he has in his pocket I was not expecting this anime to show blood that much but needless to say It does sure show what Glenn's point is that magic is no good more for killing But Sistine and Rumia are saved by the bastard Glenn I hope more action comes to this series in the next episodes, Oh that OP epic it sounds good in my opinion not just a standard dull OP but a thrilling one. |
  |
| I like the little worldbuilding about how people with special abilities are persecuted against, and it was even more problematic that a royal was born with them |
| Wait, if the Researchers of Divine Wisdom are supposed to be a secret society of evil wizards, why would they attack the school in broad daylight while wearing easily identifiable tattoos denoting their affiliation? Either this is a group trying to frame those researchers, they're ridiculously confident, or they're amazingly incompetent at being a secret society. Also, as a mage killer with ruined dreams of heroism, Glenn's backstory reminds me of another character from Type-Moon universe. I'm not exactly sure where RokuAka is taking this. |

| That feeling when your high school substitute is essentially an undercover delta force operator. |
| The dude is already better than Toma, at least he goes for the kill if necessary. |
