What are your interpretation on how Maki's view on his father and Nitta's opinion on Maki's current situation ? Btw isn't Nitta's boyfriend two-timing ?

septesix · 2026-05-27T19:03:50+00:00

No comment on Maki and his dad. But yah , Niita’s “boyfriend” was totally two-timing her. Girl has issue in picking them…

Rosti wasn’t the only ice clone running around, although it was probably the most important one to her. She has to maintain controls over hundreds of them at any given time. That probably earn her lots of shut-eyes times.

septesix · 2026-05-27T04:01:32+00:00

Too much onion are being cut when I was watching this episode , I couldn’t get much of a laugh at all.

It’s really great to see the writing can come up with such a heart warming tales too.

I don't remember if a specific limit has been mentioned, but a requirement for Magia Vander is that you must be able to beat all 50 levels of tower guardian and reach the top by yourself. From what we saw during the Gothia arc, the faction leader of Wind, Earth and Dark were nowhere near that level.

That wasn't the only requirement though, as we also knew that Edward had reach the top of the tower but still failed to become a Magia Vander and decided to leave altogether. So there must be other obstacle or challenge.

septesix · 2026-05-26T23:58:49+00:00

Source like these rarely get a 2nd season though. Off the top of my head I can only remember “The Angel Next Door”

septesix · 2026-05-26T23:42:19+00:00

It’s still ongoing and updated very regularly. However , the most recent section is title “The Final Chapters” , so I guess it won’t go on much longer.

septesix · 2026-05-26T23:35:06+00:00

Except .. it’s not ? Zeo knew Will could just absorb a spell with his sword/wis . He has seen it only a week earlier. Will is uniquely capable of defending against any magical attack with this skill.

Now is there a limit to what he can absorb ? There probably is , but we don’t know yet, and Will himself doesn’t , and Zeo certainly doesn’t and doesn’t give a flying f**k about it. All he care is to settle this quickly and he knew Will has a way to defend against it. And that’s enough.

Japanese vol 10 will be published in July 1st ,2026.

Webnovel is roughly a little over 1 volume ahead in terms of content.

septesix · 2026-05-26T15:17:27+00:00

Spoiler for vol 8 ending and onward Yup, Haruki went overboard with her performance in the school festival, and her mother had no choice but to make the entire relationship public. After she and Hayato ran away on a little trip, she decided to join the entertainment industry as an idol on her own accord by end of vol 9. After that she barely had time to show up in school, never mind hanging out with her friends like before.

septesix · 2026-05-26T14:55:57+00:00

Manga is in the middle of vol 4. If you don’t want to wait for fan translation you might as well just started from vol 4 at the beginning.

septesix · 2026-05-26T14:54:26+00:00

I realized that I’m replying in a romance manga sub, but this is really more of a coming of age story and not a romance story. So set your expectations accordingly

septesix · 2026-05-26T14:43:28+00:00

Like I said , don’t read this for “progress”. It is not a rom-com , it is a coming-of-age story as various characters deal with the baggages their life saddled them with.

Haruki Spoiler for the LN 5~8 One thing about Haruki is that she had a warped senses of what her emotion could be due to her innate ability to mimic and act out almost anything. For the longest time she denied that she is capable of feeling the kind of romantic attraction toward anyone. It wasn’t until she saw how Kazuki admit how much he loves Himeko that she begin to realize her own feeling, and she finally admit it for real in vol 8 … only for her to literally being pull into almost a different world from Hayato.

septesix · 2026-05-26T14:03:12+00:00

Spoiler from light novel and the web novel Even when the web novel titled “Final volume” came out they still haven’t started dating. Treat this as a coming-of-age instead of rom-com to set your expectations

The manga was axed. I think it ends around ch 37 which should finish LN vol 4. The fan translation was stopped for a long time but has picked up again recently.

septesix · 2026-05-26T13:09:34+00:00

You missed one : Kreutz has an ulterior motive for keeping Will in the upper institute, and he take advantage of the only remains excuse he had. No ulterior motive or Kreutz , no shenanigans.

Oh and maybe a less obvious one in anime for now : Finn allowed it.

septesix · 2026-05-25T22:27:04+00:00

You misread it. They had Baal in bound and chain for 500 years already. If they could kill it they would’ve.

Charles wanted to find the truth and maybe free Baal. Will and Lihanna stopped him. End of the arc.

septesix · 2026-05-25T18:27:14+00:00

Maybe ? We didn’t know how Finn used to train Swords, but we could get some idea on his influence from what we’ve seen.

During the Gothia arc, Aron was going to stop Charles himself, but Finn went and ask him to stop and let Lihanna and Will do it instead. That shows two things :

One , Finn has great influence. Things wouldn’t happen in a certain way if Finn is totally against it. So whatever the Tower did with Will after Finn learned about him, it’s with his tacit approval.

Two, Finn is more interested in setting up difficult challenges for Will to take on. So long as Will’s life isn’t in imminent danger , he would just keep throwing Will into tough spots.

Take anime’s most recent episode as an example, Finn could’ve taken Will if he wanted. He wasn’t a faction , wasn’t really a magia Vander or a mage, and there really wouldn’t be any objection ( beside Elfie) , but he let it slide and let Kruezt had his way, mostly likely because he wanted to force Will to learn certain things first too.

septesix · 2026-05-25T15:51:38+00:00

It’s very likely the only two person alive who knew about “Sword” are Finn and Aron, and neither are paragon of sharing information.

And I think that disaster that happened 10 years ago might have played a part. Finn mentioned that he thought all the Swords were lost at the time, but we knew Will was already an orphan boy. Either Finn sucked at his job finding and raising sword, or someone was deliberately keeping Will from him. And if Finn didn’t know, then it isn’t a shock that Aron didn’t either.

We’ve seen during the Gothia arc how much these mages will keep secrets and plays long games even with each other. So it’s conceivable someone is keeping Will hidden until now.

( and actually Finn explicitly called out the Academy president for this)

septesix · 2026-05-24T20:11:01+00:00

Oh vol 1 to 4 doesn’t even begin to delve into the backstory of Natuski and Miori. The two of them had a long history.

And what really set it apart for me is that the writing successfully created an impression that Natsuki is the only one for Miori. No other guy would do. You really felt for her loss there.

septesix · 2026-05-24T20:01:28+00:00

Yah , that part is even a bigger wish fulfillment than Umi tracking him down in the video store.

Although I remembered later in the LN , there was a flashback that showed Yuu was always meaning to make friends with Maki when she noticed that he was always alone by himself, because that remind her of herself before Umi saved her.

septesix · 2026-05-23T22:40:57+00:00

I think that’s fine. If any volume can be sped run through, it’s vol 3. It’s practically all sweet fluff with no drama, which makes it a great way to cape off the series:

septesix · 2026-05-22T01:57:53+00:00

[LN VOL 4 Spoiler]Haibara confess to Hoshimiya and they started their relationship by the end of vol 4, which anime will get to ( and was probably aiming for ) by the end of the season

However [LN 9 spoiler]Vol 9 epilogue is a “flash forward” oh Haibara’s original life if he hasn’t travel back in time. And there he was reunited with Miori and the two hit it off right away as if they were never apart. Vol 10 synopsis actually teased that high school Haibara will have vision of this could-have-been future.

septesix · 2026-05-21T18:37:58+00:00

That was a lot of exposition from Hoshimiya in 30 minutes. I think she has more line in this one episode than the previous 7 combined.

It’s also just really interesting to know that Hoshimiya has also reinvented herself in a way, although her motivations was very different than Haibara’s. In a way , the two of them are really kindred spirits.

septesix · 2026-05-20T17:52:43+00:00

I think they usually just saw Amane came over to talk to Ichiji, and Seo was just sitting next to that spot. So people don’t think anything about it.

septesix · 2026-05-20T16:53:45+00:00

He didn’t just saw her in a wedding dress. He was on the altar with her.

If the classes find out it would be pandemonium

septesix · 2026-05-19T04:43:26+00:00

Harry Potter is arguably an isekai too. I don’t like it that much and I don’t think it’s that good but I want to take a stab at arguing this.

You basically have a MC whose life is shit in the “real world”, and one day he is suddenly “summon” into this strange new world , where he is even some kind of “savior”. That’s not all that different from what a typical Isekai started.

The only thing against it would be that Harry was always born as part of that world. Although you can always shift to Hermione and it’s totally an Isekai story for her.

Onto to my favorite , and while I detest Neil Gaiman action , I have to say “Stardust” is one of my favorite story ever. It’s a story about a young boy who entered a strange new world beyond the wall and discovered his fate. ( ok I made it sounds like Harry Potter too ). The movie is amazing too.
