Also the main character is the only one who can do both. That's a pretty good analogy, actually.

aers posted:Also it got animated because if you go look at list of the top selling light novel series in 2013, the entire top 20 has an anime except Mahouka. Which is #3. The series has been in a state of "getting an adaptation sometime because they've adapted everything else" for years now.

Oh, that episode reminded me of something. Some entertaining LN spoilers: when Tatsuya mentioned wanting to work in "energy" what he meant is that he wants to create magic cold fusion and solve the world's energy problems forever. It wouldn't surprise me if he does by the time the series is over because it turns out he's already invented magic flight.

The rings are devices created using that ultra-rare material that can generate antimagic fields that was mentioned earlier. Why Blanche was willing to commit dozens of those to the attack but only one gun is a mystery I can't recall if they ever explain or not.

Unsurprisingly, the entire Yotsuba family seems to exist to be dicks to Our Hero.

Harime Nui posted:Nothing about Tatsuya's characterization is consistent unless you view it as always pushing towards "he's awesome, everything he does and says is awesome, the end." He displays irritation, boredom, a sense of humor, sadism--all emotionally derived behavior. To be honest it's almost impossible to imagine what a being "without emotions" would be like. To make the obvious comparison, Data was programmed by his father to possess something like curiosity and desire to learn and experience, otherwise he would never have entered starfleet to begin with, or wondered what it was like to experience emotion. Tatsuya on the other hand, has no programming other than protecting his sister. He should be almost completely inert, not the driven and manipulative mastermind portrayed in the show. Of course, while that might be an interesting premise here it's only used for two things: 1) To explain why he's a super unflappable badass who never loses his cool 2) To occasionally have Miyuki muse on how it's so tragic he can never love except for her Sindai fucked around with this message at 02:08 on Jun 10, 2014 |

Man that would have been a great twist. I can't think of any homosexual characters in the series at all. Do any ever turn up in the novels, or have gay people, like skimpy clothing, been eliminated in the enlightened future?

I think you're on to something. Tatsuya gets pressed into service to help the school culinary club compete against them and he ends up ruthlessly disintegrating all their dishes when Miyuki takes a bite.

Is that Tatsuya's super tacticlol body armor suit in the new OP? That looks exactly like what a teenager would design for himself, good job artists.

Of course the American agent has to cheat to get away from a few Japanese high schoolers and then gets casually slaughtered to make it seem like evil Chinese guy might actually be a credible threat to Tatsuya.

pentyne posted:Apparently this god like magic has a downside, where Tatsuya instantly feels the 150x pain as the wounded he had canceled. Yet he does it without sweating, hesitating or missing a beat, and does it to multiple people at once, so apparently the “downside” only applies to him using his powers to save lives that aren’t people he needs at the moment. Also, if anyone made it this far in the novels, why did the president's ice shot disintegrating knock wacky tiger armor guy out?
