Summary
One of the centerpieces of the Nine School Competition， the Rookie Games。 With only first years being allowed to take part in these matches， First High School's top student， Shiba Miyuki steps on the stage to display a beautiful， elegant performance。 Her brother， Tatsuya， also participates as an engineer that adjusts the athlete's CADs and allows himself a moment to relax only when he admires his sister's appearance in the games。
Though only supposed to be an irregular， a second-rate student， Tatsuya's skills in adjusting the team's CADs give them a strong advantage over the other schools。 But as everything goes smoothly， an accident occurs that forces Tatsuya to take center stage where he'll have to face the first year known as the Crimson Prince， a first year ace from Third High School， Masaki Ichijou！

Great conclusion。This volume marks a great finale for the Nine School Competition arc。 Again the author does a great job describing the magical competition。 The characters keeps evolving and more details are added to their backgrounds。 Some interesting twist and new plots are added which keeps the reader interested from beginning to end。

I would say that this one is better written than the previous ones， a bit longer than also。There are more background/history about the characters， which is always good。About the story: it was shown to the other characters how strong the siblings are， but new strong characters were also presented to help develop the plot。Again we see the questions marks （？） which could be taken out。。。

This is really a review of both Volume 3 and 4 since they're the same extended storyline dealing with the Nine Schools Competition。Again， the book version of this is a great addition to the anime version， containing more detail and explaining things which， frankly， don't really make sense in the anime。 The explanation of the actual events （games） is much better here than in the anime。 One event， Cloud Ball in the book and Crowdball in the anime （not sure why that was changed， but I suspect an er This is really a review of both Volume 3 and 4 since they're the same extended storyline dealing with the Nine Schools Competition。Again， the book version of this is a great addition to the anime version， containing more detail and explaining things which， frankly， don't really make sense in the anime。 The explanation of the actual events （games） is much better here than in the anime。 One event， Cloud Ball in the book and Crowdball in the anime （not sure why that was changed， but I suspect an error in the anime translation） is actually explained in the book。 It just looks like a weird version of tennis on screen。The only complaint I have regarding the books is their unremitting gloomy persecution of Tatsuya （the protagonist）。 He does come across as a bit of a jerk in the books。 His anime counterpart is emotionally cold and extremely hardline when it comes to protecting his sister， but he doesn't come across as mean。 I'm starting to think that this isn't simply that we don't get as much of his thought processes in the anime version; the original （book） version isn't as nice and they changed him to be more sympathetic。There are also some weird changes of tone between the two versions。 Primarily， scenes which are played more for laughs in the anime， are not just serious but frequently negative in the book。 I'm not a great fan of relentlessly beating your main character over the head with the plot stick because he's been written to have a tragic sort of life。However， the author is clearly getting into the swing of things with this arc。 I'd rate them more highly than the first two books in the series。 The world building continues to be impressive， and the books are worth reading to get the most out of that。 For pure enjoyment， the anime is more fun。 。。。more

Very good for remembering what the plot in the series was。 Maybe too much technical blabber but overall it was a good read。There are a few more important facts than in the anime series and they sure make the whole thing more understandable。

I really love this series， everything is so thought out and planned that it makes the world and characters seem so deep

The marvelous scene at the end between Tatsuya and Miyuki fills me with dread。 Not for the expected reasons， but because I'm beginning to fear that I will soon ship them as a couple- if I don't already。 The marvelous scene at the end between Tatsuya and Miyuki fills me with dread。 Not for the expected reasons， but because I'm beginning to fear that I will soon ship them as a couple- if I don't already。 。。。more

It amazes me。 Actually， the word [amaze] cannot describe this story because its beyond that。 Especially， the 9SC itself。 It is a new advance school competition which includes the complexity of an active participation。 It also introduces a new character that augments the comedy and romance factor of the characters。 Aside from that， this volume is only a part of how scary Shiba Tatsuya is。

I love how even with the sports going on， there was still scenes that showed what was going on with the other characters。 I want this to be the future。 I just can't get over the thought of scientic magic！！！！ I love how even with the sports going on， there was still scenes that showed what was going on with the other characters。 I want this to be the future。 I just can't get over the thought of scientic magic！！！！ 。。。more

Full review is on my blog。The fourth book of the series is the conclusion to the "Nine Schools Competition" arc。 Main plot takes up about 20% of the book directly， and at other times it's happening behind the scenes， taking the back seat to the beautiful competition itself （which is integrated into the story in a really nice way， so that everything about it is justified and moves the plot forward while supplying great imagery and fanservice in the form of scantily clad battling girls）。The whole Full review is on my blog。The fourth book of the series is the conclusion to the "Nine Schools Competition" arc。 Main plot takes up about 20% of the book directly， and at other times it's happening behind the scenes， taking the back seat to the beautiful competition itself （which is integrated into the story in a really nice way， so that everything about it is justified and moves the plot forward while supplying great imagery and fanservice in the form of scantily clad battling girls）。The whole arc featured some great views and scenes。 The events that comprise the competition are written out beautifully。 The book really did paint a picture of what was going on， which I generally regard as good thing。 Obviously， the great attention to detail while describing the scenery of each particular event， the movements of the competitors， and the venue in general （which was good）， as well as every emotion and facial expression of all the characters who are currently in the shot （which was redundant） was done keeping the then-future anime in mind。Character development-wise， the book offered nothing terribly new。 New stuff gets revealed， strangely， in the 5th book， the fanservice beachy one （totally written to be a mandatory beach episode）。 Said stuff was probably moved over there so that more people would buy it。 In the fourth book， however， the character development is almost nonexistent。To summarize: the events look （as in， "visually"） brilliant， the plot has advanced enough for a light novel to be called sufficient， I mean， you gotta push out 4 books per year， so the fact that there is no filler in it is already awesome。 And it's pretty thick for a light novel。The strongest book out of the first four and probably five。 The whole arc is worth reading through the first two books， which consist mostly of blatantly infodumping the same stuff over and over again。 。。。more
