Well, there's still a difference between "several people have been predicted it" and "it was predictable".
We'll have to wait and see. Because I still have difficulties seeing a simple Tatsuya/Miyuki ending based on these relevations in the at least 5th-to-last novel. |

Which is why I suspect that Mahouka could be going to have a different conclusion. By tackling the Tatsuya/Miyuki issue head-on before the climax of the show, the author might very well have the chance to develop and motivate a _different_ resolution properly without having all Tatsuya/Miyuki fans up in arms.
The romantic matches for Tatsuya/Miyuki are a big big thing for the story. Simply joining them by decree of the clan head so early in the story... this is the best the author can do? Do you really think so? |

Well, I think it's altogether impossible. There is no way to have them end up differently and not make it tacky as all hell at this point. Besides they've been all over each other for 16 volumes.
The reason why this pairing is so obvious is that they're both the reason of existence for the other party. And in the anime and manga/LN world that sort of bond doesn't disappear. I'm actually feeling even a bit bad for Masaki, thinking about how much of a rude awakening he will have in the next volume when Miyuki gets legitimately upset at him for trying to get in the way. And I don't think there is anything bad regarding this development, so I can't really comment. I think the story has been slowly moving towards this point and the signs were there. |

Agree with you there Clutchdog. I also had the same impression, at the beginning, that somehow the author will pair the two together before the end. Besides, if the spoilers are right that the novel will end at 20 volumes, it is the perfect timing to do so. The rest of the story can now be used to clarify the pairing and some other issues related to them, their clan, and friends. |

Respectfully disagree with that. If we stipulate 20 volumes, linking Tatsuya with Miyuki in volume 16 is terrible timing. If you want to let both of them end, the normal drama arc would demand that a development towards them is started around now, and eventually concluded in volume 20. Maybe at the end of 19. Definitely NOT in 16. And not in such an unromantic, borderline creepy way - ordered by the clan head. If the both of them are going to have a happy ending, then they will have to go through MASSIVE turmoil and drama in the next volumes first.
In fact, it is exactly the timing issue which makes me believe that this is not going to be the end pairing. |

I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion on how the story should go. Unfortunately, it is not going the way some of you want to. The spoilers are just that until someone has translated the full volume. Translated properly not some machine.
Spoilers they maybe, but they do portend on what the probable ending of the story is going to be which, imo, was already apparent from the start. Only the supporting details needed to be provided, which the author is obviously providing now. |

Honaka was out of the race in vol 5,Erika pretty much respects his strength and Lina shares a similar military life that was pretty much forced on her. Throughout the story,i loved Mayumi and Tatsuya's interactions which always played on the elder sister/senpai teasing /getting teased by Tatsuya.After every volume we could see Mayumi's feelings develop more towards the romantic side,but from Tatsuya's side there was zero,nothing,nada change in his feelings towards Mayumi or any other girl for that matter.From beginning Sato shoved MiyukixTatsuya in our faces,going as far as telling us now that they were made for each other.I'll would have been suprised if Sato didn't go this road he has been building towards for years now Now i'm kinda scared for MKNR's endgame though,from vol 16 i get the feeling that from now on what awaits Tatsuya & Miyuki is a big tragedy,with all the talk about him destroying the world if she dies |

There will be some drama. Maybe even a threat on Miyuki or even Tatsuya but, they will be resolved as usual as there are not that many credible treats to both of them. I said both of them because they are almost always with each other and even if separated, Tatsuya always has his "eyes" on Miyuki.
Just imagine if both their powers are not shielded. |

Remember,even though Mahouka has harem tendencies it never really followed it's rules,and forcing your idea of the typical harem series scenarios (like harem endings or no clear end girl until the final chapter of the series),saying that the author is slipping by making Miyuki the end girl this early is wrong.All ships are dead.We should be applauding the author for developing other girls or giving actual character development to the girls unlike other series that severely lacks character development,or thinking that ecchi fanservice scenes with the male MC are character development's

I am disappointed. I was Ok with Tats/Miyuki relationships till this moment, because I thought it was nothing serious.
Now I hope Miyuki dies before they marry and have children or Tats somehow cures her from her "modifications" so she would be able to love someone else. |
