The Master Clan Conference Arc thread is now open. Feel free to post your speculations for what might happen in this arc. However, please keep your speculations regarding possible events to those that have a real possibility of happening in the upcoming volume. (No "30 years from now ..." posts, for example. ) Speculations that go beyond the scope of this arc still belong in the Predictions for Beyond the Current Volume thread.
As volume 17 spoilers drift out, they should be posted here. Volume 17 is expected to release in Japan on August 8, 2015. The poll will open some time after the novel's release. The Master Clan Conference Arc is expected to span more than 1 novel. Additional novels in the arc will be added to this thread as they are released. Finally, remember that the Mahouka novel series has been licensed. As such, you can discuss the contents of the story. Limited summaries are permitted. Limited translations are permitted when they are used to support a discussion point. But you cannot ask for where to illegally find or read the novels or share such information. Not in raw form. Not in translated form.

Let's me be the first one to speculate. The first half of the volume should be about high school drama between the sibling and their cohorts and their pacification after the new about the sibling's identity and their engagement were announced.
The 2nd half would be about 10MC meeting and bombing. |

The wait is killing me, especially when this is the volume where one of Tatsuya's biggest secrets is finally revealed to the public. Preview of the first chapter is still about 3 weeks away and it would suck more if the first chapter doesn't contain any of the importants parts we want to see.

I still don't understand why Mari should not only be on the cover but also be in the front row. I can understand why they chose Mayumi, but why Mari? is it even possible to give her enough screen time to justify this decision? She is only a student and a low rank member of one of the 100 clans with no direct interactions with the Shibas ever since she left first high. Besides comforting Mayumi I doubt there is much she can do. Well the author likes her and that might be reason enough.

It was mentioned in volume 6 that amongst the watanabe family Mari is by far the most magically talented. If the 100's get a vote in the selection of the master clans it would make sense for Mari to be there as the watanabe families heir/representative or what ever she is classed as. |

Maybe she will be made into a guardian/body guard of Mayumi? |

Not that I think they'll be interested in her but she is a member of the 100 families at the level of TMC combat magicians, so far, only she, Naotsugu and Toshikazu are in this category. Last edited by Echizen777; 2015-07-10 at 09:28. |

I wonder Mari has right to attend the meeting, isn't her family mentioned in vol5 as a tail-end family of "Watanabe". I don't believe the magic association will allow the attendants bringing along close friends.
I believe she is on the cover with annoyed face because of her consoling duty and possible enmity toward Tatsuya. |

Maybe Nao gets injured/killed, he was/is watching Tatsuya. Mari confronts Tatsuya and blames him, which leads to a fight or Mayumi intervening. |

As for their expressions, it's not surprising. Finding out a trusted friend wasn't who they said they were is going to a hurt a little and make things awkward. Last edited by bakato; 2015-07-10 at 12:24. |

how much about Tat's status will be revealed in this volume?
-Yotsoba's heiress fiance - Yes -Strategic class magician - Not likely -Silver Tourus - Possible (achievements credits now his identity as Yotsaba is known i don't see any points for keeping it hidden) And to what extent of his magic abilities will be unraveled ? -Material Burst - Not likely -Baryon Lance - Not likely -Mist Dispersal - Possible when fight terrorists And lastly will he get the new hair style? I don't think so haha What do u guys think? |

For the closest people around Tatsuya there's only going to be as much reaction as required to move the story forward. Erika might get an empathy scene since she kinda can relate to Tatsuya's status as family that was hidden away until they got acknowledged. Mari will probably be simple acceptance given her disposition. Mayumi would probably be disappointed in herself for not recognizing the signs and not understanding Tats better from her knowledge. Of course, Tatsuya can only come off better from each recognition or confrontation.

Mayumi feeling sad and torn and Mari worrying about her friend. hmm yeah I'd say that's pretty much what I expected them to feel. |

I'm sure she will perceive it as a lie. Especially because she doesn't know much about his past. Whether Tatsuya really lied or just misled her /implied something doesn't matter at all. It's not the reality but the perception of it that triggers certain emotions.
