I saw ep. 4. 1-3 were like, meh Gary Stu fantasy. 4 was baaaad. It really was people slobbering over the MCs dick and his sister was the worst offender, which is awful. That said, part of me wants to see how much worse it gets.HiveCommander posted:There's some serious anti-communist social commentary in this series. e:Also like the dig at political movements in general.

Namtab posted:Well the deal with the class 1 and 2 system is that only the class 1s are actually physically taught magic, whilst class 2s are just given access to books and rooms and left to get on with it. This results in the class 1s becoming more adept at magic as time goes on, thus furthering the divide That is...amazing. So, in the main characters(The Family Incest) mind, those

So I caught ep.5 of this show because it really is strangely fascinating in how nationalistic it is. It's practically American. Anyway, I've got a few things I noticed and questions that may have been answered already in this libertarian infodump thread: 1)Why was Mibu embarrassed by the suggestion to increase faculty or whatever? Were this Higurashi or some bumfuck town like that, I could understand, but this is the biggest, richest Magic School in Japan. The hell? 2)I loved the reaction shot of the Course 2s at the debate when the class prez went on her big speech. They are LITERAL idiots. 3)Loved the prez's speech by the way. Don't use violence and just work within the system, regardless of how much is stacked against you. Malcolm X was literally the devil according to her*. 4)I also love the implication that "Weed" is the literal "W" word in this (school)universe 5)I still think glasses girl is the best character, but god, her Tatsuya is so great speech nearly killed it for me. 6)Finally, was Tatsuya literal defense over why the school shouldn't change "As long as I can study research papers, I'm fine. Maybe you should deal with it too" Like, he literally was born into a rich-rear end family with a super-magic bloodline and already has literal superpowers. And the only reason he doesn't want to help out the other weeds is that he already knows what he needs to and just wants to study? This is past FYGM, it's "gently caress you for not being born in the right family shitlord" *On a sidenote, Miyuki or w/e is supposed to be the literal most beautiful character in the show, but she's so drat plain it doesn't come through. The prez makes me think of a Clamp character and I really like the design.
