Summary

(Volume 2)Tatsuya and Miyuki Shiba are brother and sister, but they share a bond that transcends mere blood relation。 Despite the fact that they're siblings who attend the same school, their lot in life couldn't be more different。 Miyuki's a Bloom, one of the elite students of Magic High, while Tatsuya's a Weed, with low expectations and even lower levels of respect。 But having skillfully diffused a tense situation, Tatsuya finds himself recruited by the school's disciplinary committee and soon discovers there's more to Magic High than he realized。。。

The magic system is so deep and complex, and its great getting a much more deep dive into it with this volume。

Great story and details。Another great volume in this serie。 The story is good, the author keeps adding more details and twist that keep you interested in each chapter。 The amount of details to the sport competition is really good, you can see that the author put a lot of effort and research in order to make this school games believable。 The characters keeps being developed and each of them are having a lot of attention and detail from the author。 Another great reading in this serie。

The writing stile has clearly improved from the previous two books, but we still find the question marks on it (?)。It was shown more of the main characters pasts, Shiba siblings, and how they are that strong when compared to the others, also the lack of emotions from Tatsuya。Based on the few appearances of adults so far, we can conclude that the adults have less thinking prowess than young teens, maybe for this genre/theme it works, but we know it is not like that (I hope)。New characters present The writing stile has clearly improved from the previous two books, but we still find the question marks on it (?)。It was shown more of the main characters pasts, Shiba siblings, and how they are that strong when compared to the others, also the lack of emotions from Tatsuya。Based on the few appearances of adults so far, we can conclude that the adults have less thinking prowess than young teens, maybe for this genre/theme it works, but we know it is not like that (I hope)。New characters presentation is always good。 I believe this gives the story more depth also points that can be explored in the future。 。。。more

This one was very boring。 It was 90% sport explanations and 10% plot。 I could care less about the rules of the game they are participating in。 The author cared way to much about the technical aspects of the sports event in my opinion。 You could probably skip this arc of the story and be fine。 You are not losing anything if you do。

The way Tsutomu Sato writes these books are rather intriguing。 He writes in a way that shows the characters know facts and scenarios about each other without revealing to the audience what those facts and scenarios are。 It adds to the mystery of the story and characters as you wonder what their various pasts and lives are。 Another great addition to the series。

See book 4。。。

I love the scientific exploration of magic in these books。

Loaner from my friend: 3/3。 Thanks, B!This is a perfect two-star series。 What do I mean by that? It's fast-moving and entertaining, the artist did a great job making the characters cute and appealing, and--much as with fan works--you can get a decent idea of the author's eccentricities because there isn't much editorial interference in between them and the reader, and that adds a lot of charm (and cringe, sometimes)。 The "magic tournament" in this sequence is fun, with weirdly-named events like Loaner from my friend: 3/3。 Thanks, B!This is a perfect two-star series。 What do I mean by that?

To be honest I’m probably rating this higher than I should, while the translation is fantastic the text is quite basic and doesn’t exactly hold up against the typical authors I read。 That said the story itself is awesome, the character are great。 Most of all I’m deeply enjoying the little details that didn’t make it into the anime。

I think things are about to get really exciting。

This book is about 30% plot, 70% magic technobabble and terrible exposition。 So, you know, a bit like the show。 Unlike its animated adaptation, this novel does provide some very important information about Tatsuya that makes him a more understandable character, and the 30% that is story is decently good。That other 70%, though。。。

no matter how many times I read these volumes I just love it。。。。the character development is so well done and the series is so deep that it just makes me love it even more

Shyames || Prosciutto through life

Most of the plot wasn't a surprise for me as I've already watched an anime series based on that。 But there were still some big facts that they've omitted in the anime and now more makes sense。It was a good reading, I could refresh my memory about what happens in the series and get back on track。 And I think the language of the English translation and how it reflects Japanese reality is better in this volume than in the previous two。 Most of the plot wasn't a surprise for me as I've already watched an anime series based on that。 But there were still some big facts that they've omitted in the anime and now more makes sense。It was a good reading, I could refresh my memory about what happens in the series and get back on track。 And I think the language of the English translation and how it reflects Japanese reality is better in this volume than in the previous two。 。。。more
