The Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei: Tsuioku-hen (The Irregular at Magic High School: Reminiscence Arc) television special announced a sequel for the anime series following its broadcast on Friday.

Tsutomu Satou originally published the sci-fi action novel on the Shousetsuka ni Narou website in 2008. Dengeki Bunko began printing the novel in July 2011 with illustrations by Kana Ishida. Kadokawa published the 32nd and final volume last September. Satou launched a sequel light novel the following month. Kadokawa released the third volume of the sequel on November 10.

Madhouse produced the first anime season in Spring 2014 and 8bit produced the second season in Fall 2020. The Hoshi wo Yobu Shoujo (The Girl Who Summons The Stars) anime film opened in theaters in June 2017.

A television anime adapting Satou and Yu Mori's Mahouka Koukou no Yuutousei (The Honor at Magic High School) spin-off manga was produced by animation studio Connect in Summer 2021.

I've always found this series mediocre at best, so i'm honestly not very excited.

Pretty much in order they came out. The main storyline is:
Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei
Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei: Raihousha-hen
Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei: Tsuioku-hen

"Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei Movie: Hoshi wo Yobu Shoujo" is a side story, "Mahouka Koukou no Yuutousei" is "Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei", but from their female classmates' perspective, and "Yoku Wakaru Mahouka" are just some extra shorts.


I watched Reminiscence Arc special before going into the Season 2- Visitor Arc.


It mostly takes place before season 1 anyway.

BTW just started watching the first season, I hear there is a spin-off and some movies?
Kindly can anyone provide the watching order of Mahouka.

Man, the MAL community has really gone down the shitter. Instead of letting the fans be happy that a beloved series of theirs gets a new entry, some people seem to have made it their job to vomit their vitriol into the forum trying to ruin it for the others. Whatever happened to live and let live?

Personally, I'm glad Mahouka got another entry. While the anime (or at least the first season - haven't seen the second yet) had its problems mainly stemming from some production decisions and the effect they had on the characterization of some of the characters - I quite enjoy the world of Mahouka. Though I mainly prefer the novels.

The fascination for me is definitely the world building. I always like it when an author goes the extra mile and does more than some surface-level set up. It's fascinating to see them coming up with future technology and stuff and then thinking about how it would impact peoples lives, politics, etc. And weaving their stories into the whole thing.


You're absolutely right! I haven't read much further into the light novels but I know for sure the world building and the fights get absolutely amazing.
In fact, the reason we're getting a 3rd season confirmed is by how amazing this is doing in Japan.

It's sad we get random people to just come shit on the announcement but I'm truly happy I've met someone whose only thought is not just judging this by its "incest".

I also haven't had much time to check the 2nd season but I'd highly recommend a rewatch on season 1 to refresh events, the movie is a sequel to season 2 in the timeline so you can skip that.
There's also the prequel to season 1 that just came out subbed in case you want to give a look so you know what to expect for season 2 since the animation studio changes from Mad House to 8bit.
I heard they're doing a really good job adapting it so you may rest assured :)

Cheers, mate!

Lol another ranter appeared. This man, damn acting like a attention whore for quite a time.
Now, be happy I paid attention to you.
But sorry not interested in reply further.
So just rant on me, if it makes you feel happy.

Can you explain to me where is the problem of defending a series that does not deserve so much hatred? To be a 17 year old you are too stupid, maybe you fell down the stairs as a child? It will also be incest but if you waste time watching anime or anything else you don't like I don't understand why to specifically insult this, if the news doesn't interest you or it makes you shit skip it, nobody forces you to write a message of contempt for a anime where it took 7 years to have a 2 second season and it seems quite normal that people are happy with the announcement of the third. If he really starts insulting people as soon as he points out that no one cares about your comment or that it is inappropriate, don't write it, plus for being right you insulted me and another user and this is wrong. I would like to remind you that you are 17 years old and that every action follows a consequence and with a consequence a responsibility so I would ask you to behave like an adult and put your head right because you are NOT NOBODY to judge people who like this series and there is. they are people who work on this manga and maybe you do it to be remembered or just because they like to tell drawn stories.

I already answered your question. So not gonna do again that same thing.
You say not to look at you as kid but damn if you like this show so much then how could you not even know this garbage is not manga source?
This shit is LN and bet lol he don't even know it's already completed and of course I know the ending. But if you don't even know this much, look who's is the one arguing this whole time without even proper knowledge and here you acted like a kid again.
Aside these your whole point is unrelated to this show. You're just ranting on me.
And I'm not obliged enough to pay attention.

MeiFTW said:
lmao my man's ego is so huge he has to think everyone arguing against him is no more than 12 years old else he cannot win the argument.
I have to honestly pity these type of people who have nothing else to do but write 1851 posts against random people in the Internet, imagine how much time did you consume making people think you're an elitist rating every show a 2 and trashing what you don't consider good, holy.

Touch some grass and open your eyes, I bet you some 12 years old aren't as stubborn as you.

Lol I already teach him an argument is not done by trashing others list or rating but this time once again he's here and lol also shitting on my commenting no. First get some enough elementary knowledge and then come back. Except that there's no point in arguing with you. But you're really good at ranting.

For both of you,
Man I still didn't looked at both of your account, what do you like or dislike?
After all I've nothing to do with it.
But guess not goes same for others.

Don't be upset because this gets a sequel and your crap that you watch doesn't.

Aw! Don't be butthurt. I just stated facts.
And get a life in future instead of living upon this incest trash.

Saying the show is garbage is an opinion...

Lol I wasn't planning on quoting but guess I need show these two kids their original place.
Just Wow, those both comments were quite amusing. I literally laughed for 10 minutes. Thanks for filling colors in my colorless world.
And let me know you're nothing more than 10 yrs old kid's mentality.
MeiFTW said:

Maybe you should get a life instead of spending 100 days of your life watching stuff that you don't even enjoy or rate a 2. Why do you even bother trashing shows you don't like?

It must hurt to see a show you don't understand get a 3rd season and you judging it as "incest" while you're waiting with your dick out and praying for one of your trashy korean hentai to get animated huh.

You're trashing on my list and rating which has nothing to do with this show. It's my list so I'll chose who to rate high or low.
If you're getting irritated by my rating then it just shows you're still a kid who starts to cry when mommy doesn't give Your daily affording money.
You're saying not to judge this show as incest but it's quite impossible, after all this shit just your avg show where Imouto is brocon who wants to get saved my his older brother every time. And crying like a bitch onii San in whole show which is really cringe. She loves her brother in a true way. Of course big bro also loves her in romantic way. Their feelings are mutual. That's why it's incest.
Don't worry I didn't spoil you why this garbage is full incest. If you want to know future events which are gonna happen in this story then let me know. I'll tell you, what's those two trash chara gonna do in future, which's literal incest.
For your insult on Korean source,
I know you don't anything related to Korean material what they write and who read and it's quite baffling from someone who churn on these low level shows.
It's real I quite fap alot. After all I'm a man.
But damn, even a 12 yrs kid know, Korean source never got animated. So no one is waiting for them in first place.

do you think anyone cares about the point of view of a jerk with a rating average of 1.80? You should quit anime if you really think everything sucks and watch my little pony if you really feel like it. This is not anime focused on incest between Miyuki and Tatsuya and if you think this is the plot I'm sorry but instead of a human brain you have the brain of a lousy pervert.

My points are same which I quoted to your beloved friend "Miyuki-K". So just read them. After all both of you are from same ancestors.

For your extra points,
Yeah I watched little pony and that was just down below average, enjoyed a little bit but can't rate it more than 1. These are more befitting for kids like you.
For calling me pervert,
At least tell me how?
I never lifted skirt of your mom or sister and tried to see their panties. At least don't get diverted from your mindset.
And calling me a pervert, when you're the one who's enjoying this trash and immoral show. Don't you think, it's quite contradictory. Lol at least don't do in your real life.


For both of you,
Guess defending this show, when I'm stating just facts why this shit is literal incest and not just guilty pleasure. These two really enjoyed watching oreimo when big bro kisses his little sis and in Yosuga no Sora:- when brother faqs his sister. It's you two who're perverts and taking out your pp from your pants.


See in whole comments, I never used second hands tactics like trashing others taste, their rating or even pfp like both of you did on me.
That's why you're kids or either with kid's mentality.
