P/S: i almost forget.
Please tell me you are Chiaki's fan, please.
Please don't tell me you are any other girl's fan.
So i don't feel any hate toward them.
Chiaki is fine though or the douche bag or the annoying rude & nosy & bothering Masaki and George.
P/S2: You don't have to answer this question but it will be very welcome: how old are you? (I'm very curious and i know it's a personal question, so you don't need to answer it. I'm 22 BTW)

First, let me state I have no shipping agenda. I could care less who ends up with whom and the very fact that by asking this seems to imply that the theory I am trying to put foreword is a "threat" to you ship makes me even hesitant to even answer your post as I'm starting to think it is going to be pointless.
Second, since you asked I am in my 30's and have worked in the engineering field and that is why I stated what was going on with his step mother sounded like just office politics (yes it is much more over blown than real life but not so far off it strikes me as being anything dark and sinister)
Since you feel my theories are unfounded let me go ahead and state them clearly before I start to go in to my reasoning behind them.
The first is that the siblings father isn't trying to control Tatsuya but is in fact attempting to give Tatsuya freedom under the mistaken impression that he is being forced to be a Guardian to his sister against his will.
The Second is about Miya and Maya That I'm going to hold off on until more has been translated.
Spoiler for Long wall of text:
OK lets start by sorting fact from opinion
I'll use red for Tatsuya
blue for Miyuki
for the 3rd person omniscient narrator

"I ignored Father’s wish of continuing to help with company work and entered high school. I didn’t expect any congratulations at all. That much of Father’s nature at least you should understand right?"
"For my own parent to act so pathetically childish, it’s infuriating. In the first place if he wanted to separate me from Onii-sama, he should notify me and then Aunt first, but he doesn’t even have the courage for that.
In any case, when will they stop thinking they can use Onii-sama however they please?
Is it not to be expected that a 15 year-old would enter senior high?"
...
Miyuki does not know the full truth of Tatsuya’s involvement with the Magical Engineer equipment maker, ‘Four Leaves Technology’, where their father serves as the developmental section chief.
He had made up many things in his spare time, so misinforming her into believing he had a reasonable job was a simple task.
If she knew that in truth he was merely used as a piece of recovery equipment for research samples, it was very possible that she could have paralyzed the entire transport system.

Note:
His father is avoiding going through the Yotsuba channels to get him to leave his Guardian duties.
He has enough free time with access to labs to develop things such as loop casting.

Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei:Volume 1 Chapter 4
Now she understood that such worries were meaningless.
Her elder brother, that person was special.
The people of the world call her a genius.
That was the praise that they gave to special individuals, people that were different from themselves.
——In fact, they understood nothing at all.
The truly impressive, special, bona fide genius, should be her elder brother.
That person existed in a different dimension.
They could not even comprehend that.
For those that hide their personal jealousy to flatter others, they probably couldn't understand.
True talent that towers over lesser mortals, that draws a terror that transcends jealousy.
Not awe, but terror.
The man who by all rights would be the father of these two siblings crumpled before that terror. And in the face of that terror, he belittled and abused his own son. All this she was aware of.
Her elder brother believed that she remained ignorant.
Thus, she pretended not to know.
Father —— that man to this day still sought to belittle her elder brother's talent, to give him a false sense of defeatism, seeking to pinion the wings of his spirit and ambition. All this she knows.
How comical.
He originally sought to imprison her elder brother, only to find himself crushed by the fact that his son's talent far exceeded his own.
That son obtained the "resources" he needed to barter for his freedom.
Their father could only watch that one last binding, and was forced to let go.
The only thing that man could do was adopt that phony title, and collect the hollow praises of the masses.

All of this is purely Miyuki's opinion and we are new show why she thinks this way, but as the story goes along we do see that she will over react to even the slightest perceived slight to her brother up to when her friends suggested he use his power to help people not knowing the cost she barely was able to contain her rage. Until we have a clearer reason why she thinks he was belittling him this is dubious evidence at best. Hell, I could see her reacting this way to her father calling Tatsuya out as a lapdog for the Yotsuba.
Quote:
A tall but hardly fragile-looking engineer wearing gray work clothes threaded through the crowd.
"Director, my apologies for visiting when you're so busy."
"Wait, Mister, please don't say that."
Tatsuya's respectful greeting caused the engineer named Ushiyama to color and shake his head.
"It is your right to act casual, but these men are your subordinates, so there's no need to be overly humble like this."
"Not so, everyone here was recruited by our father, so they hardly answer to me......"
"What are you saying. You are the far famed 'Mr. Silver' himself and we are honored to serve beneath you."
Every engineer and researcher who heard Ushiyama's voice nodded in agreement.
This was Four Leaves Technology's CAD Development 3rd Division.
The development team that created what the world called the "Silver Series".
Currently, it is publicly acknowledged that the "Silver Series" is the defining work of FLT's technical abilities. Once seen as rebels and renegades, the surplus employees from the technical department that made up the 3rd Division now held considerable sway in FLT after the advent of the Silver Series.
Lets take a look at this sentence since you believe it means that the the 3rd division was made from the cast offs of the other departments. First the term surplus means an amount (such as an amount of money) that is more than the amount that is needed as in there is a surplus of workers and not enough jobs. it in no way identifies the quality of said workers. But the statement can also be read as: Once they were seen as rebels and renegades. The larger then needed group of employees from the technical department that made up the 3rd Division now held considerable sway in FLT after the advent of the Silver Series.
Thus, the engineers and researchers here swore eternal loyalty to one of the core developers — Tatsuya, who was "half" of Taurus Silver.
"Seriously though, I think that you, 'Mr. Taurus', are the actual leader of this group, right? It's because you were always reluctant to accept the directorship that 3rd Division still doesn't have managers and group leaders."
"Please don't say that, I'm not capable of being 'Mr.' or 'Taurus', I'm just an ordinary engineer who does the grunt work so that your ingenious theories can be facilitated. I'm the one who cannot stand the fact that my name is placed alongside the original developer. I'm not that brazen. It's just that the young master is still an underage student, so your patent would be a difficult issue, hence why I had to throw my name into the ring."
"......Without Ushiyama-san's skills, the 'Loop System' would be impossible to realize. I am not nearly as capable in terms of hardware knowledge, performance, and creativity, so regardless of whether its skills or theory, the only thing that matters is that we are able to complete a model capable of mass consumption, correct?"
|
Ok, it is flat out stated that Tatsuya's father recruited them, and the head of these "surplus" engineers and techs is stated to be much more capable then Tatsuya, so of course they are trash? Why does the 3rd Division even exist as It seems the silver series was one of their first CAD lines? You don't find it highly questionable that the company starts doing CAD research around the same time Tatsuya expressed what Miyuki sees as his first interest in anything? Even if the greed angle is true Tatsuya's opinion that he is only seen as merely a piece of recovery equipment for research samples, is nearly idiotic. While that might have been the stated reason he was there it looks like he had a lot of free time to do what he wanted with things that interested him.

What's more, Tatsuya's words to Miyuki weren't bravado. Expensive as they were, these were ready-to-wears designed for young teens. For haute couture, it's not even a very high price. As a member of Taurus Silver, this amount of money wasn't much to him at all.

Tatsuya has made a huge amount of money as Taurus Silver. Kinda odd that he has access to it if they were trying to control him, given most of it would have been made when he was under age.
Now lets talk about how you jumper over his stepmother for suggesting he drop out of high school. lets look at the facts. Tatsuya has demonstrated a educational level far above that of a high school student. I would say he has displayed a level above many Grad students. So yes from the point of view of a researcher who Tatsuya completely out classes him going to high school is him just playing around, just as say a high school student going to kindergarten.
