I can't believe based Onii-sama used facts and logic to destroy Blanche and prove the (magic) wage gap doesn't exist.

The rhetoric used in this episode to justify a ruling class isnt that different from how feudalism was justified. One more anime where any sort of rebellious group against stabilishment is shown as hypocrite, evil etc while the ruling families are shown are flawless and great leaders you gotta follow and die for like a good servant, kinda sad that in many anime we get to see the shitty side of many eastern cultures and how they are still stuck in this caste divided world as something justifiable for so many years now, anyone who would even protest like you'd see as normal in a modern european country is at best treated like a nuisance who can't understand great leader's choice (that was very glaring in some episodes of Jigoku Shojo too). If the original Star Wars trilogy was a light novel, the empire would be misunderstood noble leaders while the rebels would be a bunch of disruptive assholes that are either misguided or evil, thats how bad certain series get.

Miyuki being jealous in the Student Council room was very funny. That's making a good comic scene. We're introduced to an terrorist organization called Blanche, I'm pretty curious about their plans in that school and that dude who attacked Tatsuya in the forest. It looks like the discrimination stuff going to be more important than I expected.

Heavy dialoge episode again, im liking it so far.

Honestly, I was getting more enjoyment out of the bowl of cereal I was eating rather than the episode itself.

After watching this episode, I am going to assume it was just info dumping so we can understand what was going on in the next few episodes. But honestly, the ideas that are being projected on the series are just not sticking with me, I feel lost at times because the info dumps are just going in one ear and out the other meaning I can't grasp how magic even works.

Still, I have hope for this series, it is still early and I have already enjoyed parts of it.
Have a great day!

The plot of an equality and tolerability among those two course kinda enter a new stages by including the outer parties into the academy. Yeah, a ten clans, and the anti magic terrorist. It seemed, the trouble that Tatsuya's involve created a big ravines as its result. Meaning there was something unexpected schemes that potentually appeared in the near future. Gladly, Tatsuya, with his massive amount of knowledge, the ability to analyzed it in a flash already predict the outcome and soon reach its conclusion over the next episode.

Not to mention his explanations over the devices cast jamming, the stone that could jammed the Psion waves and inactivated it, or the magic technique he had to neutralize it that involved the theory of jamming. I was really appreciated with the information. Also, a lot of expression happened. The girls on these series surely had a massive different way affection toward Tatsuya. From his same course senpai, student council, his imouto, even with that sensei. Damn, what a huge advantage he had there! XD

Let see the next then to see Tatsuya plan against that Mibu's senpai and her clubs scheme.

I really liked how they're getting into politics and society and such, especially since to me the world-building is the most appealing part of this series thus far; however, I think that the whole existence of a wristband identifying all members of this terrorist organization was a bit of a stretch. I mean, why would you wear an identifying wristband if you were making an effort to conceal yourself? It really makes no sense.

The bit with the kendo captain and lead girl was very interesting. I think she said that they're trying to raise some sort of revolution, which I thought was going to be inevitable. I mean, they're all being completely oppressed and harassed, so I don't see why not. The kendo captain's tone, though, seemed really sinister. Maybe he has some sort of ulterior motive?

Miyuki's emotions are really out of check. When it comes to Tatsuya, every little thing he says goes straight to her head and messes with her emotions. And then these emotions make her use her magic. So it's either she has so much magic that it just overflows or she's really mentally/emotionally unstable. Maybe Tatsuya had so little emotion that she felt like she needed a lot of it to compensate.

So, worldbuilding thru exposition dump. Is this arc meant to be this boring?? Maybe it’s just me.

So Mari has a boyfriend. Has he been shown yet? I’m losing track of their names lol

anti-magic terrorists? the 10 clans? say what? their aunt is some famous person?

maybe they are really siblings? idk. but if they are, her brother-love is fucking WEIRD

so the interscholarstic club leader guy is the one who sneak attacked the mc?

why was that teacher so provocative? was there something "more" to him calling that kendo girl beautiful? strictly trying to compliment her for his own benefit?

yet again, remains 9/10

your second question


Be sure to Watch the reminisce arc after this. It explains the starting few minutes you see in the show and why Miyuki is the way she is.

And there's the mystery! Even if I didnt understand who that organization is or what their objective is, I did understand that Miyuki and Tatsuya had a bad past, so that was a nice scene.

The plot is slowly building up into something. I'm looking forward for things to become interesting. In the meantime, I find the wincest and Miyuki getting jealous amusing. Miyuki really wants Tatsuya's D. Hehe

1:56 bro already lying
10:36 Nah I hate this, his sister is gonna try to block him from getting any game whatsoever over jealousy because she thinks the other girl is gonna kiss him.
They skipped the questions she asked? lol I wanted to hear them. Also the zooms and angles on her "clothing" are insane.
I mean pretending like Blanche is completely lying is kind of BS, they are right in a way. The issue isn't that talented people don't need to work hard of course they do. But it's quite simply the same problem as in the real world Wealth Disparity controlled by factors you don't have control over. It's not that they would think magic users don't work hard. It's that if non-magic users work *just as hard* they still get paid way less. Which obviously happens in the real world as well.
22:49 Like this is BS, it's not like only those at the top work the hardest or something. It's like for example Usain Bolt, of course he worked hard but there's people who worked just as hard but simply don't have the same amount of mitochondria. And so naturally they can't be as fast a runner as Usain Bolt. (Though obviously it's impossible to have a world that completely ignores such natural talents or skills in favor of equality, if everyone is special no one will be although the line goes hard, doesn't really work in practice)
23:03 like his sister is being especially stupid.
At least he has the brains to admit he has the privilege of a unique skill.
Like of course some people are gonna twist it into "it's natural skill they don't have to work for it" but that's not the common sentiment. The common sentiment would be the unfair advantages that a select few have. I mean that's the same reason people dislike Nepotism.
Now obviously that doesn't mean that resorting to terrorism is the right call, not at all.
I mean they are just being manipulated, rather than trying to weaken the country they should simply try to reduce the pay gap. Same in real life how first CEO's made like 5 times more money and now it's like 400x or something crazy like that.
The problem is the 1% getting richer and everyone else get poorer, that's the real issue you have to fight. But you should fight that issue within the framework of your country . As long as it isn't completely corrupt and unusable.
