Oh boy, Hokuto's got a bit of responsibility to bear on his shoulders.

As for the representatives, I bet there's a certain weight they feel as well. This whole idea of being an idol as a public face of the school really can be a game changer for certain characters.

Showing when Midorikawa-san's character and another character thinking about changing academy... They thought of fine's members and needs his help on another member for he knows lots of people.

Midorikawa-san's character seems to admire Eguchi-san's character.

That character found a hidden room under one of the bookshelf. He met red hair guy (Nojima-san). He knows him because he wore female outfit when he was young.

So Maeno-san's character wanted to join Eguchi-san's character's drama club, but got rejected.

Midorikawa-san's character wanted to create another unit, including that guy who helps him out.

A big offer was made to Tsumugi.

Natsume's secret room and all that alchemy stuff was really cool.

Little Natsume was so adorable. ^^

I officially really hate this Eichi guy, Class President or whatever. These shows always seem to need some stupidly powerful and manipulative Student council to rule the school.
But there's something wrong with the ethics in a lot of anime that really shows whenever there's some all-powerful student council in the plot. First of all, the conversation between Aoba and Eichi- they're discussing who should be added to the Five Eccentrics; who lost two members because they were cheated out of victory in the last DesRes because of these guys. Well first of all; it's NOT A STUDENT COUNCIL's decision who joins their group, it's that group's decision. But this isn't really spelled out too well. Also, pressuring people to drop out of certain groups and then claiming it's offering them opportunity to move to another against their will is NOT how you move up in the world.
Japan needs to realize that "leaders" cannot dictate people's lives to that extent, and should not.
Then there's the scene when he looks up to that truly oddball guy reading poetry on the school roof.... you see the words he says, he wants to reach heights no matter what it takes.
No matter what it takes... What that really means is- THE ENDS JUSTIFY MY MEANS.
He is clearly trying to rise upward by dragging other people down, thinking that he then gains a step up as a result of each person he ruins. That's not how it works, and if you think this way, you will actually drag multiple people downward, which is a net negative for society. That sort of mentality is destructive to everyone, but I have noticed Japanese entertainment acts like this is just how powerful people are and that's a good thing because it keeps people competitive, and competition automatically motivates people and creates upward mobility. WRONG.
This is a disastrous and destructive game to play, and I suspect the character will not learn any such lesson. I can tell by how he's treated by his friends, whom he does not even deserve, and he's always pretty and smiling and well received by people even though he's clearly a goon. But the show is playing it like he's cool, and powerful and therefore admirable- 'might equals right'. This is bullshit.
