Why is there a ranking system in the first place if you can't rank up or down? It's not like they are like historical estates, right?

He only teached that emo girl but she didn't have anything to do with his false arrest. They litterally took a simple kiss as an excuse to arrest him after his sister french kissed him in ep1. How is that even possible? The whole system must be super corrupt.

The whole drama change of scenery with all the black and white color seemed weird lol. But yea they are stretching the credibility of how the social system works imo. + Show Spoiler +Its not like his family is THAT powerful and Stella is a princess ffs apparently she can't pull any strings? And all this over a kiss, I didn't know the world Calvary is in is full of prudes.

Yeah that episode was weird. + Show Spoiler +I think Stella could've done more. I guess she was too scared or thinking Ikki will be fine. Either way... Cavalry full of prudes made me laugh. That episode didn't make much sense in that regard.

That's really what it's suppose to do. If you are branded as a failure, then you should act like a failure. Shizuku is an A-rank knight from what I recall so it's fine for him to teach her. The system is just there to control people and make sure they live "harmoniously". The point of the interrogation is to make it so that ikki " admits" that he is doing something wrong by going out with a foreign princess
Kurogane family controls the japan branch for the magical knight association thing. There is a way for Stella's father to intervene (which he is trying to do right now) by going to japan and meeting directly but he can't do that if he doesn't get to japan. Actually, it was ikki's plan to delay for as long as possible until stella's father came so that he could tell him his story and convince him to take his side. If that happens, then the charges have to be dropped. The reason he has to fight Raikiri for next fight is cause Akaza(fat toad guy) knows that Stella's father is coming and stella's father is interested in that duel.

I never agree with the logic these *noble houses* use. The mental gymnastics these families often go through to shit on whatever mc they have decided to hate is redic. Same shit in Mahouka.Why not be happy that you ended up gaining something from someone you had written off? Its like a complete bonus because they didn't invest anything into him. This bull shit about upsetting the order of things is just that Bullshit. There are no universal laws that are never broken. He is the exception that proves the rule and his existance doesn't so anything...what are they worried about all the shitter F tier knights rising up against them? Is the society really fucking over those baddies that much that they have to worry about it? Its just forced drama with very thin reasons that it exists in the first place.

No uprising. Its a similar logic used when corporations shit all over small businesses and everyone else.
Also, they don't need ikki so it doesn't really matter whether he is bonus or not. They just want him out of public spotlight.
Also, the yotsuba clan dont dislike mahouka mc. Only the henchmen and his uncle does. Most ppl actually like tatsuya including the head

+ Show Spoiler +The idea is that if you're a shitter F tier, then you should act like a shitter F tier and know your place in the society/hierarchy and not strive to rise above your station. This is the pretty basic dogmatic japanese establishment trope, it shows up everywhere.
His family believes that if you're a shitter F tier but you strive to improve yourself, you'll start to mouth off and write cheques that your shitter F tier ability can't cash, which will cause the whole foundation of the militaristic magic knight thing to be undermined by having non-skilled magic knights around. Shitter F tiers aren't meant to enroll in Magic Knight school because they don't have the capability to pass. Ikki is trying to pass and hasn't accepted his shitter F tier status, which is why his family is doing everything they can to fail him, so he doesn't upset the status-quo that they have to endorse as the heads of the Japanese Magic Knight branch or w/e.
Ikki just gets a pass because he has MC powers and while being objectively rated at shitter F tier, has the skills/gimmick to let him compete against higher tiers which is why it seems so unfair. IMO from a in-universe perspective he's probably the only shitter F tier out of hundreds or thousands who is actually capable.

New Hare-Kon chapter was good
i was they could update more faster

FInished:
Nausicaa of the valley of the wind / Ookami Kodomo no Ame to Yuki
im not going to talk about how much of a masterpiece those are... Just watch them - that is all. For something that is older than me it sure is amazing (Nausicaa) [Check - Studio Ghibli 25 Years Concert from 00:40 - 04:26]. For wolf children -> Dont get the wrong idea right off the bat like I did (reading the synopsy or whatever) Even the first 2 minutes of the movie mention it. After that ur all set...
Rakuen Tsuihou seen bias cause its urobutcher and this and that... very linear story (like most movies duh...) enjoyed it
Now if only my XP supported eXfat format... I could save those in 1080p to my sdcard (well I can - cut em in parts then unzip on sd should propably work T_T)

So Seraph ep 10 was pretty freaking gay. Wouldn't mind it so much if someone happened. That'd be hilarious or is wanting that gay. Hmmmmmm. They'd sell better though.

OPM
+ Show Spoiler +Holy shit he didn't die in one punch. This anime has lied to me! Though you could argue he didn't even use his full strength and he still destroyed the guys armor in one hit still. Still super stoked to see what happens, sad it will be the final episode this season.

Considering starting Tytania. What are everyone's thoughts on it? What I have heard about it is that it is literally a shitty version of LoGH. Its the same author, similar giant space war setting, but ends before it ever actually goes anywhere, and has pacing issues. Which makes me wonder why anyone would want to watch it, other than trying to find something similar to LoGH. Especially if said person hasn't watched LoGH to begin with. edit: "Tytania sucks so much that not even LoGH fans can force their way through it" is how it was described to me by a close friend who dropped it for sucking.
Exactly my experience. Tytania has a very similar setting and same author. The first episode tricks you into thinking it will be about space battles, but the majority of the series isn't. It doesn't have any of the complexity of LoGH. It kept trying to convince me that the main character was doing something awesome with triumphant music,but I rarely agreed with it. I did not finish the series, I stopped watching somewhere after + Show Spoiler +

Manga spoiler:
+ Show Spoiler +I realize that boros had to die after killing an entire city, but i do wish he had stuck around as saitama's buddy  He's one of the first antagonist to respect and acknowledge saitama fully and he was so happy to finally have someone to fight while truly going all out. Series obviously wouldn't function properly if saitama became buddies with someone as strong as boros though, oh well. I just really like his personality.

it's sad tho (opm spoiler)+ Show Spoiler +Boros dies happy, having traveled through space to finally fight someone as strong as him, saying he could tell Saitama didn't bare his fangs at all and that he's way to strong.
It just feels like Boros is basicly saying that he understands how Saitama feels. Boros travelled through space to feel something besides apathy and it took him a prophecy and 20 years of space travel to find Saitama, implying that Saitama's alone and he'll never find what he's looking for
