Tbh, this exam could provide a great opportunity for Kurumi and Yuzu as mages.

There's also another big event in their world. However, I like the character chemistry overall among the cast. Seems like some of them really became close friends by this time and look like a close family together.

I hope Kurumi and Yuzu do well in their exam. It's being really nice seeing how close the class are and how supportive they are of each other.

Mostly a quiet episode, with some nice character moments.

Interesting that while Yuzu's flunkies got understandably jealous of how close Yuzu and Kurumi got over the break, they didn't do the standard trope of trying to sabotage things.

I wonder what that teacher's motivations are. Maybe getting into the Magumi and using a notebook will stifle their ancient magic talents somehow?

Maki is too darn sweet!!! Aniku finally found his own path and Lemone was just about to start losing her mind.

No surprise that it was Northern who took Manami, he is really worried about ancient magic.
Took a while for both Yuzu & Kurumi to decide to take the test but they both seem to be pretty happy after exam day 1.
Dog Girl & School nurse know what's going on but can't do anything yet.
I wonder what exactly Northern is up to, the next 3 episodes will have a lot of action I reckon.

I have ADD, ADHD & AUTISM, but this won't stop me. Let's keep having fun together.

This is pretty much what I figured is going on. Trying to control all these students by making the bigger threats use this techno magic instead of a more natural magic.

But there is way better chemistry of Yuzu x Kurumi so that's understandable.

Lemone nearly entered her yandere phase there, fortunataly Mikana was there to pull her back.

Also I only just noticed this episode that Lemone has a non-standard uniform. She's got kind of baggy looking shorts in comparison to everyone elses skirts

Really cute and chill episode, but it kinda feels like the pacing has been off the last two weeks. Like we already had set up the Magumi exam possibility last week, I thought we’d see them take it this week rather than Yuzu and Kurumi debating it all episode. Their ship continues to be strong and I love all their gay moments, feel for Maki though because she been kicked out the mix quite a bit lmao.

It’s interesting that Yuzu only missed the cut off by one point. That’s wild. Very excited to see what the exam looks like next week. And hopefully someone can free Suzuki sensei from Northern’s trap!!

the exam is a trap. But let's see. Maybe they'll be in that magic class, but they can still learn or practice ancient magic.

And as much as I dislike the slow pace, some of the slice of life moments in this episode is great.

EP 9

Last time uh. what happened last time again?
Yuzu and kurumi used magic together i guess and then sensei got kidnapped

Im really curious what sensei would say if she were here
I mean theres only a few eps left, the big plot twist is probably going to happen next ep i think?
Or the latest would be start of ep 11
Meanwhile
I mean it could just be a distraction? uh

Anyway so yeah that was the whole ep. looks like we gotta wait another ep
Really feels like a filler ep, almost nothing happened this time

EDIT: WAIT AM I AN IDIOT? MAKI IS MANO AYUMI?
Then again she was absent in the last 3 eps as yuzu took over. Plus yuzu is the real main character so to speak.
I have to say maybe I should have looked at the cast list sooner. There's a surprising number.
Lemone is goto saori and I never recognize oh my. I mean

The entire anime has basically been planned out for 12 eps, and they stretched it too long and/or they had too much empty space

I mean the general gist of the anime has been, the first half is slice of life/filler and then something happens in the second half
EP 123 is sensei saves the day, ep 4 is sensei leaving, ep 5 is the weird thing, ep 67, ep 8

This ep seems to be the final(?) calm before the storm, almost at the end now. Not sure, it kinda feelsbad since they were building up to whatever is happening for the entire anime

placement test that feels odd and suspicious. I think yuzu and kurumi are just being used or trapped, moreover the timing is too coincidental with suzuki sensei who is locked up with magic. I hope in the last 3 episodes, kurumi's old illness of "inferiority" will not happen again. I want to see where kurumi succeeds in using magic that will surprise everyone.

yuzu and kurumi's chemistry is always comfortable to watch, compared to akko-diana I think this is much better. and one thing, I just hope kyo stops spreading his charm in front of yuzu, I can't stand to see it. what made me a little surprised was that yuzu didn't look shy or her face turned red in front of kyo, even though all this time yuzu always behaved awkwardly when she was near kyo or is this just my feeling?

regardless of the genre, I don't mind at all if in the end there is no yuri nuance. at least I don't want the two heroines here to fall in love with someone. I think closing the episode with the theme of "friendship" is more suitable for this anime. btw my favorite character maki has a lot of screen time in this episode, good job 👍

@YordaTrico everyone here just wants to comment without meaning to offend anyone. what i want to say here is there is no need to criticize someone's opinion who has their own point of view. let it be entertainment for themselves, that's all

It's still funny to me that the enemy to Northern is called Southern. Guess they're indeed polar opposites to each other.

Yuzu and Kurumi studying hard for the Magomi exam. I guess Harris wanted to make sure they really deserve to enter. It seems he's not really a bad guy...

Maki the really supportive friend. She even gave Kurumi a little tambourine for good luck. ^^

oh, and that booth they are preparing for the festival is so neat. Many ideas put into one.

looking forward to next week! :)

Harris plan is still in motion while Yuzu and Kurumi debate on whether they should take the exam or not. All of this serves as a distraction for them to not get closer to finding out what happened to Suzuki and som other plan we don't know about. This is gonna be a rushed endind I can already tell.

I like the singing, this anime is, overall, so wholesome. Also I think they adjusted the opening ending slightly (and maybe more, but all I noticed).
70-30 split sounds about right. I think because they are doing together it more so pushes them. They both have such awesome friends <3
