Random Curiosity

Descending down from heaven to wreck your shit. How exciting. Wee.

I’m going to piss some people off with that title, but I don’t care. It’s too much fun to pass up. Unlike this show.

「九校戦編V」 (Kyuukou Sen Hen V)
“Nine Schools Competition Part V”

An accident, an investigation, a gamble, and a lot of talking.

「九校戦編IV」 (Kyuukou Sen Hen IV)
“Nine Schools Competition Part IV”

There were multiple instances of characters working in what looked like Microsoft Excel. I believe that tells you everything you need to know about this show.

「九校戦編III」 (Kyuukou Sen Hen III)
“Nine Schools Competition Part III”

More set up for the Nine Schools Competition arc. They’re at the hotel now!

「九校戦編II」 (Kyuukou Sen Hen II)
“Nine Schools Competition Part II”

More setup as the kids of First High leave for the Nine Schools Competition this time.

「九校戦編I」 (Kyuukou Sen Hen I )
“Nine Schools Competition Part I”

It’s time to set up for the second arc.

「入学編VII」 (Nyuugaku-hen VII)
“Enrollment Part VII”

Tatsuya & co break through the front door and mete out some justice. The action is still good and the pacing is better, but some of the thematical implications are troubling.

「入学編VI」 (Nyuugaku-hen VI)
“Enrollment Part VI”

This is what I’ve been waiting for – it’s magical combat time!

「入学編V」 (Nyuugaku-hen V)
“Enrollment Part V”

The discrimination at Magic High School boils over as explosions interrupt Mayumi’s attempt to make real change.

「入学編IV」 (Nyuugaku-hen IV)
“Enrollment Part IV”

The pacing was a lot better this episode as we dive into the root of discrimination, and what kind of crisis it could lead to.

「入学編III」 (Nyuugaku-hen III)
“Enrollment Part III”

More was explained, Tatsuya showed more emotions, and some great fights were had. I’d call this a great episode, except for that one scene.

「入学編II」 (Nyuugaku-hen II)
“Enrollment Part II”

I can see why Tatsuya gets on some people’s nerves. Here’s when he should, and where he works.

「入学編I」 (Nyuugaku-hen I)
“Enrollment Part I”

A complex world filled with highly competent characters. They opened up a lot of questions, which leaves me wanting to know more.
