You have to note that the attacks were a diversion. It was all about the raid on the archives. The others were just pawns and they don't care.

Not going to get into another long discussion on the politics of the situation.

Good episode.

Mibu got played so hard lol. The part when Mari was like "err you totally misunderstood what I said" That what happens when you let your inferiority complex cloud you perceptions MIbu.

I liked the Erika and Leo fight bits, that even though Tatsuya and Miyuki are in a league all their own, the side characters are still useful.

Kirihara scene at the end was also sweet. He only provoked Mibu because he liked her. aww...

Different times, different mores. His club activity probably uses real swords for some stuff. Hopefully not practice spars, but who knows?

One thing I wonder about: how come Juumonji didn't grill Erika and Leo on their motivations? They're pretty much going there for kicks. And they're going to be in at least as much danger as Kirihara.

Kinda, but remember they were fighting scrubs.

Ickarium · 2014-05-10, 17:17

Likely he didn't because they're in Tatsuya's circle. It's Tatsuya who started it. Jumonji is joining him, as it were. Not his place, in his view, to agree or disagree. Kirihara's different.

~Yami~ · 2014-05-10, 19:09

waaahh... not enough Tatsuya's battle scene but Leo and Erika really awesome
Miyuki is also so OP and that's why they could infiltrate the library easily
poor terrorist, they're underestimating the students too much

Anyway, that counselor is little fishy...
and poor Mibu.. she's too pure so she could be manipulated easily (even she misunderstand something simple like Mari's word)
Tatsuya.... you're really good with words... I'm surprised that Miyuki didn't smack her brother after seeing someone fallen in love with her brother in front of her eyes xD
and Kirihara.... he's little weird. If he truly admire a.k.a love Mibu, I don't think his action in early episode is right... it's not like an act of losing temper, that is clearly an insult
even though he's trying to be awesome in this episode, he should explain his action and intent well to Mibu. I wonder how they would make up..

Juumonji is very manly xD
anyway, a full assault to enemy base.... Miyuki and Tatsuya will go wild !

Random Wanderer · 2014-05-10, 19:43

Kirihara in earlier episode: The person I love has been acting strangely. Trying to kill her in public will solve everything!

And people call Miyuki yandere...

What's so fishy about Knowing exactly what the terrorists are after. Lurking around doors hiding her presence. Tatsuya implies she knows where the terrorists headquarters is. Referred to Tatsuya as a disciple of Kokonoe sensei.

The Green One · 2014-05-10, 20:14

lol cmon now, he can't even be a third rate swordsman without having the skill to be able to avoid lethal attacks even with a lethal technique. He made a mistake and freely admitted it.

Seems the counselor isn't just a counselor.

Flower · 2014-05-10, 20:41

I actually like the fact that they are giving this arc so many eps ... 7 at the minimum. It is nice to see something like this getting a semblance of a decent treatment.

Pretty good ep overall and looking forward to next week's ep too.

HandofFate · 2014-05-10, 21:33

the power of a two cour schedule.

if it was one cour, i imagine everything so far would have been squeezed in and ended by episode 4 already

Ickarium · 2014-05-10, 21:35

Something to remember is a lot of the arc encompass multiple light novels. This and the next one are both covered in two light novels. A later arc is covered in /three/, though I honestly found that one a bit padded.

Tormenk · 2014-05-10, 22:08

I don't remember how exactly the Erika and mibu fight went down in the novels but I always thought it was a even fight of pure sword skills so erika's takedown using acceleration magic was surprisingly odd to me. Eh whatever.

And juumonji denies kirihara on his intolerance of lawlessness but permits him on venting his anger and risking his pride. Oh lol.

Ultragunner · 2014-05-10, 22:14

^ actually Erika did at first use magic (acceleration), but when Mibu mentioned Mari, Erika went full-blown with swordmanship to "break Mibu free" of Mari's image

Triple_R · 2014-05-10, 22:34

The action scenes were pretty well-done and fun to watch. It was good to see the rest of the main cast get to really cut loose and show off their powers/fighting abilities, and not just have it be an one-man Tatsuya show.

However, I agree with Eclipze on how it's a bit disconcerting how generally lackluster the antagonists have been. I guess that's no big deal for an opening arc, where the main goal really should be showcasing what the main cast can do. But I hope that future antagonists come across as a bit more challenging and difficult to defeat than this.

Well Erika's not the type to hold back base on her personality and pretty much if its about swords ryt>?

But well swordsmanship Mibu pretty much did her best~

Is it me or are they making Tatsuya too OP?

Not really... It's about the same

Wandering Soul · 2014-05-10, 23:46

Well not to much to say other that the fight scenes were well done. kirihara's speech about why he wants to go was pretty well done. Erika's voice did feel sort of off when she was talking to Mibu though.

Bakaizer · 2014-05-10, 23:55

even the higher ups in school are amazed at tatsuya. brace yourselves worshipers and fangirls are coming
