Atleast I still found the Erika-Tatsuya-Leo-Miki scene quite entertaining. |

I guess there's no way to tell with black & white LN illustrations.
But I always imagined Yoshida as blonde lol. Either him or Leo, figured at least one of them given their personality was blonde, but both are just plain black & brown hair.

It seemed as if little happened except the reveal(s) and setting up the next episode, but the episode flew by, and Miyuki/Hayamin floating around in the air like Tinkerbell, with a delighted/devoted smile, made the whole ep worth it, for me. Enjoyable episode.
Spoiler for reveals, one my speculation based on this ep:

Hmm, Mikihiko's voice really fits him IMO.
Although... "Actually, the thing is, I've been wanting to talk to you for a while." Accompanied by a small blush. -_-; I do think Tatsuya getting up to get away was the main reason Azusa thought about him though. |

As I suspected, viewing this with the conviction that it is a parody of itself helps your enjoyment immensely.
Episode was absolutely hilarious. Btw, love the consistency: few episodes back Erika had a problem with one guy seeing absolutely none of her cleavage. Now she's suddenly fine parading her butt around for everyone to see Edit: it was obvious the second the loli started fawning over Taurus silver that it must be Tatsuya. Just as it was glaringly obvious the second the students were discussing that some spell was impossible and scholars failed to make it work... that Tatsuya already perfected it. If someone were to mention that it's impossible to make cheesecake that tastes exactly like cheesecake but actually has the nutritional value of a fresh salad, you can assume that by the end of the episode, Tatsuya will be found to have invented and perfected it by the time he turned 5. At least the show is consistent about that

Decent intro episode to the next arc. Glad we're finally done with the pointless discrimination stuff and get to what really matters. Magic sports tournaments.
Erika with good old bloomers scene. Everyone having no idea what this ancient japanese piece of fashion is was funny. Tatsuya didn't seem to offer as much resistance to joining the team in the discussion with the council, but I guess that's just what you expect to be lost in adaptation in these things. We just see him being cold and robotic on the outside, but we miss him in his head going all "oh good grief" "how unfortunate" and annoyance and paranoia about everyone him lol.

I'm glad Miki has finally joined the cast. He's one of my favorite characters. I've been waiting for his appearance. Poor Leo. He really needs to learn when to stop talking. Especially when he's around Erika.

Note what he said. The flight stuff is the first step. He has another goal in mind.
And yeah, I liked the episode. I really wish they'd let you see inside the characters' heads, though. You miss a bit without that. Miyuki was adorable at the end.

"So you're a BS magician?" Yeah, fun ep, even though the Tatsuya praise went through the roof. I guess that's the good thing about the first arc: it's made me somewhat numb for it. At least, it doesn't annoy me so much anymore.
I loved Miyuki flying around, both at the start and the end of the ep. That was wonderful, and I hope to see more stuff like that this arc. |

But then again, things will get bad again since Tatsuya is informed to be careful.
What is Tatsuya surprised about? First Blanche used the students to launch an attack and doing some theft. And in this episode there are some chances that students from each multiple school might get attacked since criminals are lurking around where Nine School Competition going to be held. So these kinds of things happens often in "Mahouka KouKou's" world. |

Tatsuya's life dream explained to Sayaka in the previous arc, and his talents in certain specific fields have been set by the author to to be all linked to what Azusa was studying and Silver Taurus. But the explanations about what they are and how they are linked have been so far skipped. So bear in mind your only getting half the story. Ummm.. terrorism and criminal activity also occurs quite often in reality too. |
