It was a good episode, but people will always have different opinions. Btw, anyone else enjoying watching the anime mahouka thread? I find it funny watching fans trying to defend Mahouka without going into spoiler territory for some reason. |

Isn't it kind of obnoxious and un-classy to make everything clear in the first part of a story to begin with? While there may be people who enjoy that fast pace of excitement, i feel that it makes the plot sort of one dimensional. It's not very fun for dedicated readers or viewers.

Ignore, ignore ignore. What is the one thing people hate having done to them? Being ignored. We basically predicted all this back in the general thread before it got locked.
Just like with SAO and AoT, it's apparently "cool" for some people to hate a series that's garnering so much attention. You can practically distinguish those that are just haters and those that just simply don't like the show for actual reasons. The people that are already harshly criticizing the series on the first episode are the former, since more rational people would usually wait a few more episodes first. |

ok let's put that aside for now, i got my post deleted by the Mod while i only hinting a light bit. I guess we will wait for a 3-4 more episode be fore they come here. Byt any way, what's you guys thought on the next following episode ?? personally, with the current pace, i think we might 3-4 ep for 1 vol.

Based on current pacing, im predicting a 3 ep for the first ln. But then, I can never predict it right so it doesn't mean much. |

But still...yeah I miss the old thread, but I'm just glad it's just there. We can always go back to it. I used to belong to a very warm anime community that suddenly shut down on the users and lost a couple of years worth of discussion. (Never really got over it too) I think we'll get used to the subforums soon enough, and I'm sure the admins are doing their best to make everything as fair as possible for everyone. We might even get new frequent visitors. As for those haters...well, for all their hate, it seems the youtube reviewing community is quite friendly to our series. I've yet to see the a single bad first impression/episode review, and the most critical one only said that he's yet to see anything particularly special and hopes things get better. Which means...despite some of our gripes...the anime did a pretty good job at getting non readers interested. |

And if we're talking about Mahouka movies...there can only be the Untouchables. ^_^ (Hopefully we get a picture of Genzou soon.) |

Exactly, the Untouchables chapter isn't terribly long. They'll need to expand on it, and because of that we'll get to see new stuff.^^ Like maybe see more what the twins and Koichi were like before the world robbed them of their innocence and started the whole chain of events.

Well it cant be done; there no such thing as a perfect episode 1....mostly episode one is just introduction of characters; of course it would be boring they should have been thankful that they even show mburst and Yakumo's fight scene, bcuz I expect that they would just be talking here and there and Yakumos fight scene would be just a meh.
PS: those bunch of Madao!

I think if they incorporated the special chibi episodes into the episodes themselves and placed them at the end or beginning of each episode to explain some background information, it might be easier for the viewers. |

Thats the problem, there havent been for awhile. The newest one I can think of is Tokyo Ravens, it did cut out information, and small rearanges here and there, but it followed the source faithfully enough and it was easy enough to understand for people that just watched the anime. Take Strike the Blood for instance, it was popular enough, but watching it annoyed the hell out of ln fans.

One place is the Discussion About Other Topics thread. That's what it's there for -- to discuss things about Mahouka that don't have a dedicated thread. Spoilers are allowed there. We only ask that you keep in mind that not all novel readers are current with the latest volume. To be considerate to your fellow novel readers, you may want to put big spoilers from the later volumes in spoiler tags. If you want to spin a discussion off an old post in the closed thread, a simple copy from old closed and paste to new Other will get you started. Quite frankly, I'm surprised no one has jumped into that thread yet as it seems like the perfect place for a general thread to grow. The other place for general discussions about Mahouka is the Mahouka social group founded by bietchie11. It's quiet there right now, but there's no reason a bunch of hardcore Mahouka fans couldn't make it a lively place to visit.

Just read the LN equivalent of Episode 01 and yes, there were a few things that got cut and Miyuki's talk about her father's call was moved to when they were at home, which honestly felt more proper to me.
All in all, a few funny scenes were left behind but I liked the episode adaption overall. Depending on my agenda, I may start reading the equivalent of each episode, lessening the amount of LN content that I read at once. |

that's rigth the overall of the ep1 was very good the miyuki bro-con moments were funny rather than anoying, the yakumo figth was well animated, and the mizuki face when she saw miyuki and tatsuya flirting was hilarious( i beginnig to like her more, mizuki). the bad poits were the mayumi time onscreen being so much reduced. now about the next few episodes here it goes the scenes i think will be cut: Spoiler for scenes vol 1:
