Very strong episode that shows Glenn in a whole new light. He pretty much turned it around for himself.

He can cancel all magic and prohibit it from being used with his original spell and then has the edge in a physical fight. What a way to be ''OP''.

Shiro-neko and magical punch sealed it for me. Glenn Radars early candidate for MC of the season.

The first episode was okay but now things is getting interesting.Episode 2 was such a great episode and Glenn is really a unique character.
Using his own spell to negate all magic and beat his foes with just strength xD

That moment was really important tbh. Those kids were not mature enough to understand that most of the times magic is used for fighting and not for those stupid ideals.

Anyway decent episode. Kinda wanted an epic fight to happen but I'm sure we will get one eventually.

Btw Rumia is freakin' 11000000/10 omfg.

This second episode was a lot better than the first, even if I still hate that it went for the classic rape scene, the conclussion was really funny nonetheless, I will give it another episode.

Week 2 and STRIKE! Another pretty good episode.

This series really is fun to watch after watching the first two shows (focusing on drama). I actually like Glenn more and more after these two episodes which not gonna lie, I LOVE HIM. He's probably the best MC of the season for me (some people have already said this but I agree anyways).

Also, MAGICAL PUNCH! I love that part and Glenn beating that guy to shit :'3

Why the hell was this not episode one? This was a million times better than anything in the first episode. The guy pulled out a freaking persona card.

My only gripe is with the way they turned that last scene into a comedic scene. Felt gross and distasteful.

As someone who has read the manga, the anime already feels rushed. However, since there's currently only 20 chapters, curious how they're going to end the series.

Rokudenashi is originaly LN. Anime definitely will go past manga, but it will not get all that far compared to novels.

Seems Shironeko was finally dubbed her rightful name, she looks like one after all.
And Lumia ojou is in trouble.
Well having read the manga this wasn't very surprising tho it was nice to see it animated.
Sisti's hair was moving a lot this episode tho, from all the spells aimed at her.

Well that went from a lot of fun to a lot of dangerous and serious business very quickly.

Glenn makes me laugh a lot, he is a great character already.

I suppose we might learn more about Rumia in the next episode.

Things escalated quickly. dat rape doe.

Rumia best girl. In fact I watched this anime since I saw her face on the preview and went,"cute..." Yea stupid reason but no regrets since it is a fairly good series. Celica is also really cool, though not enough screen time.

Glenn is really cool and funny. I was hoping he is just smart in terms of being able to apply the fundamentals and not actually be secretly skilled.
It is a worry I had for this series since after last episode, it turned all the common tropes in to joke scenes. Which I greatly applaud.
I thought he would of won that dual but he didn't. Though with this new card ability, I might worry it does go that way. There is definitely a few tropes here and there but so far nothing too major that makes it generic.
I just hope this is the limit of his ability. Fist fight. I did see a image of him holding a pistol. So He might be using technology while negating magic.

Sistine is my least favorite character right now because tsundere-like personalities isn't my type. With a few exceptions but yea.

So far so good.

That...wasn't bad at all. Glenn seems to be like a perfect anti-magician, seals off their use of abilities, then finishes them off in cqc. Add to the fact that he so causally brought up killing earlier in the episode, makes me believe that he was probably an assassin in his past.

This episode totally changed my mind of Akashic Records.
I have low satisfaction from the first episode but this episode was great.
The MC was really cool and I love his character now. Lazy but strong...
That attempted rape scene though ;)
Seems that things will get interesting starting from this.
I look forward to the next episode.

1 word: Awesome!

This episode was so good, the pacing was great, the animation was decent but most of all: GLEN HAPPEND.

I was kinda dissapointed with Glen in the 1st episode as seemed like a really good MC but he lost to Sisti. But this episode showed us how awesome he really is.
Suddenly this is one of the shows that i will be eagerly waiting for the next episode

A true magical punch should have been a kick in the balls with said balls being destroyed.

I suppose they didn't want to shock viewers. Kids are watching after all. Too bad.


So now, ... Save Rumia already!


Side note : quite the good surprise he was strong enough to admit wrong doing and apologize.

I was actually thinking of dropping this anime after that regular-almost-bad first episode, but then something resembling a plot (alas, the presence of overused tropes) appeared. I mean, this was a kinda good episode, tbqh, and now I'm finally intrigued. The MC became suddenly interesting, but he keeps being a sc*mbag.

People who were making conclusions on this show after the 1st episode are now seeing Glenn in a new light. :) Although if the comedy doesn't appeal to them there's not much that can be done about it.

Had this series at 7/10 the first episode, now it's at a 7.5 to 8 out of 10 for me! The magical punch won me over. I thought he was just going to be a typical over powered protagonist, then I found out he was actually weak, but now I found out he's actually overpowered. Hmm... Can't tell if cliche or unique...

Holy hell! The first episode was kinda average, and i wasn't sure what to feel about it aside from it being a bit fresh in portraying style.... but this episode was fucking genius.

1) he obliterates the stupid delusions of academics confined to ignorant curriculums
2) he fucks up mages with genuine clever strategy and even uses all sorts of faints and diversions... why would you fight on their turf when you can specialize in something else and bring them onto your turf?

This is some genuine good shit. The guy might have a crumby personality, but he's got it where it counts. (nullification + cqc... Touma anyone?)


ps: all the fanboys know their waifu Sistine is easy.

It makes you question how magic, if they were real, would otherwise be used, how everything that runs on our mind during chanting affects it, questions like this.
It would render the industrial age obsolete or unnecessary. Anime and games like this always contrive the abilities to tropes and the imagination of the writer, but if you but a few billion people with a bunch of spells, in the same way countless people through the times have invented various devices and processes, the same would have happened with "magic" - there is no way it would ever be able to be constricted to a particular group or use for long. Someone somewhere would find a use for every variation of an ability.

@3xTripple
Unique because he's actually intelligent, not just some guy that is overpowered for no good reason.

That near rape/ntr was quite disturbing, I could do without it tbh. Why Japan


I didn't like it either, but at the same time that is what evil people would have done when they are in control and have too much time on their hands.. So with one scene we know that this show will go darker, that the enemies are bastards, and that the writer wants to be a bit more realistic than one would expect from a fantasy.

The problem really wasn't with the attempted rape scene but that the show was so light and fluffy for 1 1/2 episodes that when it happened the dichotomy stood out.

So the question becomes which is the real show? The dark version or the harem school version? Don't particularly mind either way, but an attempt to blend I think will have problems.

Im disappointed with the animation, well there really was no animation in that fight at all, bunch of still frames.

Still tho
Glen: What exactly is so great and useful about magic?
Bitchy cat girl: Blah blah *magic is great* blah blah
Glen: So where is it used?
Bitchy cat girl: Blah blah magic blah blah
Glen: Sorry sorry, I was kiddin, magic is great, its extremely helpful.... in killing people.
Me: fuck.... you dont hear this shit in Fairy friendship tail. Shots fired at them kitty ears.

Glen: *see's student tied up about to get raped* Sorry for the intrusion.
Glen: Now I'll end this, with my magical punch! here it comes!!! *kicks*
Rapist: Isnt that a kick?
Glen: Thats what makes it magical.

So far so good. Enjoying Glenn as a character. Kinda saw him coming, but that's ok, it was what I was waiting for.

He probably saved that girl from the bad mages, probably has a 'bleh' attitude towards magic due to his history of killing, lots.

Looking forward to more!
