It takes a while to get used to the fact that the superpowers are actually a minor focus (for the main cast at least) of the show, but if "Love, Chunnibyou and Other Things" is among the best when it comes to addressing the Chunny issues in a world where powers don't exist, then this one is the same but in a world where powers DO exist.
In short, if you came for the superpowers, I expect you to either drop or stay for the characters instead...
I suspect that things MIGHT get a little more serious past this season's stopping point, but to be honest, I hope they won't: this show won me over precisely because it didn't go down like your generic fantasy animes of the season, which I suspect this story might borderline if it gets too serious.
