    Again, have you ever seen him stop something slowly?

    Can't anything in this show happen without Tatsuya being involved? I'm getting bloody sick of it. Was he patrolling outside the bath so that nobody would sneak in to look at Miyuki, or something? It's like he can do shadow clone to be able to be everywhere at once to save everybody's day.

    He seems to have fairly precise and long range full 3D radar sensing that even works through matter.
    I would not be that suprised if his range greater than the surface occupied by the facility there.
    So he had some time to come to the right place the moment the thieves appered on his radar.

    The other option is that he was observing the guy with his spirits manipulation and was able to extrapolate his thoughts from the way his powers shifted when he felt the thieves...

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    Can anyone explain to me why, during the banquet, he was wearing a class 1 uniform? I thought he didn't care about that sort of thing.

    It's either an animation error, or the school did it so that it doesn't stir up a commotion amongst other schools etc.

    As for Tatsuya being on the case, he got warned by his military superior and was also attacked as recently as that afternoon. Given his perceptiveness, intelligence and resourcefulness you would totally expect him to find these guys.

    He also had the Class 1 emblem during the Representative Ceremony the last episode on his special jacket. It's probably safe to assume it was intentional.

    I liked Erika's comment about Tatsuya. She actually likes him being cold, which is quite interesting, because in anime, being cold is almost always a negative thing, especially without the dere follow up.

    She basically liked the fact that Tatsuya didn't give a damn about her, and that shows just how twisted these magicians and their upbringing are.

    I wish my apparently coldness would be appreciated that way.

    I am told that I need to empathise and respond to emotions more during client interactions, but it feels so damn patronising sometimes.

    Yeah, I'm not actually wondering how he could be there, but rather why he needed to be there. Would it totally break this show if somebody else could just once solve a minor case without Tatsuya being involved? Like maybe Tatsuya could arrive afterwards, if absolutely necessary, and the other person could just report that something suspicious was going on but he took care of it. Then Tatsuya could again enlighten us with his omniscience, explaining what exactly was going on.

    I was also wondering about Tatsuya's uniform. I guess the tolerance for having a Course 2 magician in the crew only goes so far... Tatsuya personally probably prefers this way as he doesn't really care about the whole courses thing, but looking like Course 1 would attract less attention to him during this sports meeting.

    Looks like Kururugi Suzaku decided to have another go at high school.

    I read the manga till it got to this episode. They did skip over the explanation about it, it was mentioned in the manga. Though it wasn't translated so I can only guess what it was about. I hope we get an explanation, since they took the first couple episodes to tell us that it was considered a big deal to wear class 1 school uniform.

    I'm glad someone else thought this guy looked way too much like Suzaku.

    Someone else? There was somebody who didn't? Too bad Tatsuya isn't more like Lelouch. Miyuki could also use some C.C. qualities instead of being 100% pure distilled brocon.

    Those two changes are exactly what would bring this show from a B to an A.

    Edit: yeah ryll you're right, more like d+ to b

    A Lelouch is just as bad as a Suzaku

    A C.C. is fine though
    however the show is Kuudere enough without her and you can't make bad shows better by making them look like some other bad show, you sillies

    Episode 11 - HS

    I felt like this episode, like the last one, was pretty meh. I'm hoping we get to see some action before too long. Though it was nice to see how skilled some of the council members are.

    It's just fricking stupid the others from Tatsuya's school were so overpowering as well (the girls anyway, since the guys would need to fight Suzaku v2 and lose). How did the opponents even get to attend this sports meeting if they suck so much? Maybe the author can't really write close calls and is thus saving all of his creativity for the inevitable Tatsuya vs Suzaku clone fight. Like the speed shooting: 100 vs 30. Come on. The opponent had no business being there. They were even made to fall on their knees in humiliation after losing.

    I just realised that since this is a two-cour show, the next season will have two shows to watch only to enjoy badmouthing them.

    They should of showed some of their members losing to balance it out since, like you said, they seem way too overpowered. I'm going to assume that since we saw them win all their matches that they showed us, we'll see them lose in the next one.

    How did Miyuki even know that Mayumi's [arbitrarily german] technique was "faster than last years"? Obviously the military is there, but it looks like it is mostly students in the stands. Is this even televised?

    The incredibly dull explanations about Mari's techniques was completely worthless and unnecessary. I would understand the other competitions, they're practical applications. Mari is on a surf board. I can't think of a single thing where that would be useful outside that event itself. The explanation about Kanon's abilities was completely half-assed, Mayumi's non-existent (admittedly, I don't think it merited it), but we get a 3 minute exposition about every move Mari makes for her commanding lead...
    There were plenty of other things that could have used a 30 explanation (how the tournament works, is it televised, the overall scoring, how any of the games are played, etc.), but no, we get that shit instead.

    I find it also interesting to note that we still have no fucking clue what type of magic Mayumi uses.

    @Kraco: I assume the schools are ranked. 1st being the most prestigious, 2nd and 3rd and so on down the line. All the good students are at the 1st school. Perhaps the Weeds at 1st would be Course One students anywhere else.

    The dumbest part this episode was the fake drama about them wondering if they'll win overall. The stats are pretty clear, they lead by double as it stands (170 - 80). Why are they even worried?!
