I guess this is show is trying to build more into its world. That school didn't look too out of the ordinary to me. On the other hand, that Amu girl might be difficult to get along with, at least compared to Efa.

Seems Seika still has a lot to learn. Same with most of the other characters.

Dunno yet if I'm going to stick with this show or not, but I guess it was an okay episode.

Amu is an interesting character.

Definitely getting strong world’s finest assassin and seirei gensouki vibes from this. Really have enjoyed these first couple of eps. MC not having magic and being an adult exorcist in his previous life as well as having some of his old abilities is a unique twist for me. Yifa is super cute and I’m looking forward to seeing their relationship develop.

Too bad she’s deep in the family/friend zone rn tho. “Oh go get yourself something to eat somewhere” lmaoo

Having another person from earth there is actually really really cool. This is probably the second most hype isekai for me this season

Sometimes the way Seika talks in his head about Efa being useful to him like a tool makes him seem psychotic but then he genuinely seems to like her in his own way too, makes him hard to read. His father Blaze was a more impressive guy than I thought, his insights were interesting.

Meh. They have forums here for that. I do like stuff is produced from peoples story's and written media. All of it far superior story telling to rubbish made in the west. But LNs are still LNs.

An alright episode!

The father is actually really smart and I know we are gonna see Grey come back with some vengence later and Luft is aight, atleast we know why he was distant.

Got introduced to the 3rd and final main character Amu who is hinted to be the reincarnation of that girl from Seika's past. Lets see how he gets along with her!!

Glys should've known better, BUT his pride won't let him be coz he's supposed to be stronger and tougher than his half-brother. But that's a nice background story regarding Seika; it explains why his stepmother wasn't as mean to him as most stepmoms are; I'm sure she knows the truth, but agreed to her husband's cover story about Seika's true paternity.

This episode was a lot better in terms of pacing. ALthough, I'm pretty bummed they cut a bit of the flashback and we didn't get to see
. It isn't even a big thing, and it's not like not having it in strengthens the story in any way. On the contrary, it's a small, 15 second scene that's pretty necessary for the overall tone of the story going forward.

We don't know what kind of people we truly are until the moment before our deaths.

If you're going to read something, read the LN. The manga's pacing is actually insane. Like, even worse than Mushoku tensei. Chapter 1 covers like everything we've seen and I think more lol. The Light Novel is pretty good tho

Found the series alright so far, standard op protagonist isekai affair.

But one major pet peeve, I'm really not a fan of how the protagonist just blatantly says to the examiner that he has no magic (which is technically true but obviously not the whole story)
Like literally what does he have to gain for hiding his powers at this time? All he's doing is creating unwarranted animosity. I get it, next episode he's going to show HIS SUPER OP POWERS AND PROVE THEM WRONG. But the people there have every right to think that this is some spoiled brat getting a free ride because of nepotism, because why else would someone with no magic have the gall to come take a magic exam? It just feels like an overly forced conflict that's easily solved with him just showing any of his abilities. But series had to tick a checkbox of people having unwarranted hate to the protagonist.

And WHY would they allow someone who doesn't have magic take a magic exam for a magic school? Like surely having magic would be the MINIMUM prerequisite to joining this academy right?

I totally get where you're coming from. I think it's coz Seika wants to be one of those countless "weak" humans as what he said with Yuki. He thirsts for knowledge as evident in his past life. But now he needs to be more careful, coz that knowledge and strength to be the "strongest" like in his past life is the reason why it created animosity on the humans he protected back then and eventually, they killed him.

I need more of these kinds of series.
It's like the weakest crest but different.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

Feels like a set up episode. Kinda intrigued with how he used his magic to twist Gly's arm.

Excited to see the fanged girl more often.  Yifa is cute as a button, but the fox girl is hilarious with how she caught on.

Decent enough for a 6.5/10 ep

In all seriousness, turns out dad was aware all along. I wonder if the family remains relevant throughout the story, or if we just going into school life.

Well well what do we have here. For the most part its still finishing the introductions. Need to rewatch ep 1 to see how old seika is (He's like..10 or 12 I think?)

Yuki got a LOT of screentime this ep, not sure how it's going to be like going forward. I'm wondering if seika will "introduce" yuki to yifa at some point, but hard to tell since he would need some kind of explanation. Also well.
We do briefly get to see the other main girl. There's a LOT of characters in the OP though, but it seems the main trio and maybe yuki are going to be the focus.

Lots of stuff happened in the second half, but otherwise, in the first half, basically setup for sending seika to school and presumably "resolving" the situation with the family/brothers. Seika's "biological parents past" is interesting though but I'm not really sure if they'll actually talk about it/resolve it, however many eps they have. (Still working on the assumption its 12 eps)
Otherwise, I'm assuming the brothers and family wont show up again, or will they? Shrug.

Its interesting that, you could have suspected it but there was no real evidence, but seika actually totally orchestrated the whole thing, hmm. That being said uh. The OP does show lots of other ayakashi, so there's definitely going to be at least a few showing up in some way in the later eps.

Now for the rest of the ep. Yifa is so cute, though seika seems to be uh. I'm sure we'll see more and lots more in the rest of the season now that they've gone full school mode, whatever that is. Though they do have to pass the exam first. It is kind of funny though. 
Right now uhm, amyu(?) seems to not be so friendly though. I wonder how long it will take. The twist that apparently she either resembles or has some connection (or outright is?) related to pre-reincarnation seika is quite fascinating, I'm assuming there'll be some follow up on that. Very intriguing.

Post credits we also see a scene with what is presumably the antagonists, and some unnamed person.

I'm quite happy to see more of yuki, but not sure how/if yuki and yifa will actually be introduced to each other.
Hopefully seika will uh, speak more with yifa, though it seems seika isnt overly interested right now, if thats any issue.

Edit: Ok so Seika "just" turned 12, like did the events just happen right after this birthday? Anyway not sure if yifa's age is actually mentioned.
(Also why cant they just say "servant" instead of "slave". HMM. Well whatever, I was worried they'd make a big fuss about it but for now its not too bad)

Honestly, if I was a teenager and a girl came to my room asking if she she could spend the night, I would have been sold. But it's anime, so I can understand the hesitation because maybe he's shy and doesn't understand girl's feelings. But if a yokai comes out and LITERALLY TELLS YOU the girl wants to sleep with you, and you still act clueless, you're either gay, or there's something seriously wrong with you. If he really doesn't care about status, and he cared about how she feels, they would have banged then and there.

And what was it about his brother acting nice one moment, and then going ham the next? Is he bipolar? I'm not shitting on him, just genuinely curious.

Enrolling in Lodonea Magic Academy, and after the fight with the elder newt, Seika is ready to take the next step with Yifa. As always, the inferior brother Gly has been slacking off enough to be aware that he'll get his karma soon, and a duel to settle who is going to the Academy. A birthday present from the kind elder brother Luft, and Gly can't wait no longer to get the duel going, only to meet with more disappointment after just a glimpse of Seika's power. Of course, this is all to say that he planned this way ahead of time.

Time to go to Lodonea, and both Seika and Yifa make their way there with Luft showing them off. Yifa can only grow stronger through Seika, but the realization that Seika is not a legitimate son and one that manifested magic like no other, he could be a potential hero or a demon, two sides aloft. It's obvious that Yifa has a thing for Seika, but that's not his main priority. The magic attrition of Yifa is there, but as expected of Seika, he didn't have any. But the arrival of the commoner Amyu who has all 4 elements, Seika strikes a balance between someone he knows in his past life.

Wouldn't call this interesting, but it has got the attention.

mc finally got father permission to go to school... along with Efa, yay awesome

LOL the brother lost his place and won't go to the school, even tho he has been boasting about it for ages, get rekt

a duel? when he hides from monsters while Seika beats it in one shot? when the brother hasn't even practiced and all he did was play with a sword in town? lol
these haters never learn :D

happy birthday, a glass pen seems like a nice gift, if is lasts as long has hundreds of feathers

omfg... is the brother serious? imagine doing the duel during the night, i hope his father hits him for disrespecting his order lmao

the brother was hitting him with everything, but he never had a chance

i like the fox "see your prowers and live" LOL tbh wasn't expecting him to show the doll

reminder that humans killed him in past life, never forget that
wonder if he will end up showing off like he did before dying or if he will indeed be careful

after all the study and ...rough travel ... they are finally there (now we know even Seika has a weakness, ty Efa)

guess he was adopted, wonder if real parents are family or random person he knew
father saying he could be a hero or a demon lord, i mean, sure, he will be the strongest... if he isn't already

aw Efa wanted to stay with him, i mean, she is his attendant after all (nothing more... yet?)
Yuki was kinda mad at Efa love, but that being said, it's fun to tease Seika and his ignorance towards girls :D

other students comments tho "better get on his good side" or "a slave in the academy?"
kinda random they said she is his slave lmao at least say something like childhood friend or something

oh no, mana test, that's not a good test for him lol
yay "water fire wind earth light dark" is this a normal game? :D
Efa got so mad at the comments, scary

that red hair girl, not only she looks badass, but she also has the 4 elements, damn
seems like mc knows her, or one of her ancestors...
i'll ignore her bad comment, taking into consideration the ed showing them together lol
