The Irregular at Magic High School (Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei) (2014) s01e02 Episode Script
Enrollment Part II
1 It was just a misunderstanding.
I apologize for causing you any trouble.
That should do, Mari, don't you think? Tatsuya it really was just a learning experience for you, right? It's not as if students are prohibited from teaching each other, but the implementation of magic entails some detailed restrictions.
It would probably be a good idea to refrain from any self-schooling that involves magic activation.
Since the president herself seems to be so inclined I'm going to look the other way this time.
Make sure this doesn't ever happen again.
What's your name? Class 1-E, Tatsuya Shiba.
I'll remember that name.
You better not be thinking that I owe you, all right? I don't think that I have anything over you, so don't worry.
My name's Shun Morisaki.
I'm a member of the main Morisaki branch.
Don't think for a second that I acknowledge you, Tatsuya Shiba.
Ms.
Shiba should be hanging with us.
So you're addressing me like that from the get-go? Brother, why don't we go home now? Good idea.
Um I'm Honoka Mitsui! I'm sorry for what just happened! Thank you for covering for me.
I know what Morisaki said, but it was thanks to you that the situation didn't escalate, big brother.
You're welcome.
But hey, don't call me "big brother.
" We're both first years, after all.
Very well.
Then what should I call you? You can just call me Tatsuya.
All right! So um Uh What is it? Would it be okay if I walked with you to the station? Then It's Tatsuya who keeps your CAD in working order, Miyuki? Yes.
Because there's no better way to set my mind at ease than to have him do it.
I just make some minor adjustments, that's all.
Yes, but you wouldn't be able to do that unless you had the knowledge to understand how the OS works, right? Not to mention you need the skills to access the CAD's basic system.
Pretty impressive.
Would you mind taking a look at mine, too, Tatsuya? I couldn't.
I'm not confident enough to mess around with a unique CAD like that.
You really are amazing, aren't you, Tatsuya! In what way? The fact that you could tell that this was a CAD An Engraving-type spell? Right.
That's why it's all hollow, except for the hilt.
Meaning that you've got to constantly feed it Psions, right? How do you not run out of gas? Hey, I knew that was your area of expertise! But unfortunately, I'm not quite there yet.
It doesn't use up that much if I only transmit the Psions at the moment of extension and impact.
It's the same as the principle of helmet-splitting.
Wait, what's the matter with you all? Erika I think that helmet-splitting is a technique categorized under secret skills or the arcane arts, but it's way more than a matter of having a huge amount of Psions.
Could it be that civilians are more rare at our school? I don't believe there are any civilians at Magic High School.
Tatsuya! Morning, Tatsuya! And good morning to you, too, Miyuki! Good morning, President.
Good morning.
There's something I'd like to discuss with Miyuki.
What are your plans for lunch this afternoon? STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICE Come in.
Excuse me.
Welcome! Don't be shy.
Come on in! Excuse me.
We introduced ourselves at the matriculation ceremony, but just in case Sitting next to me is our treasurer, Suzune Ichihara, a.
k.
a.
Rin! You're the only one who ever calls me Rin, President.
You know who's sitting next to her, right? That's Mari Watanabe, chairman of the Disciplinary Committee.
And that's our secretary, Azusa Nakajo, a.
k.
a.
A-chan! President I beg of you, please don't call me A-chan in front of the underclassmen! I have a reputation to maintain, too, you know! And along with Hanzo, our Vice President, that's our Student Council this semester.
Although I'm not a member Ms.
Watanabe? What is it? Did you make that boxed lunch yourself? Yes, I did Is that such a surprise? No, not at all We can tell by looking at your hands whether or not you cook on a regular basis.
I know, brother! Starting tomorrow, why don't we bring boxed lunches, too? That sounds very appealing, but I can't think of a place where we can be alone You sound more like lovers than siblings.
Do we? Well, I do admit that it's crossed my mind before.
That if only we weren't related by blood, I'd want her as my lover.
Needless to say, I'm joking.
Nothing.
Um It's nothing Why don't we get down to business, then? At this school, the Student Council President is chosen by election, but the other officers are chosen or dismissed by the president.
With some exceptions, the president also has the power to appoint or dismiss the chairmen of each committee.
One such exception is my own Disciplinary Committee.
The members of the Disciplinary Committee appoint three officers each to the Student Council, the Extracurricular Activities Federations, and the Faculty Committee, but the chairman is chosen in an internal election.
Now, then, in keeping with our annual tradition, we appoint the first year student representative to the Student Council.
Miyuki, I'd like you to join the Student Council.
Will you accept the appointment? President, do you know about my brother's entrance exam scores? If the Student Council is looking to recruit a talented individual, I believe my brother is a better choice than me.
I am deeply honored that the Student Council wishes me to join their ranks.
Hey, Miyuki It would be my pleasure to join you at the foot of your table, but is there any way that you could bring my brother on board as well? Unfortunately, that won't be possible.
The officers of the Student Council are chosen from among the Course 1 students.
This is not an unwritten law, but rather a regulation.
To overturn this rule, the entire student body would have to vote for an overhaul of the system.
My apologies.
Please forgive me for being so forward, and so out of line.
Let's see Then are we agreed that you'll be joining us on the Student Council this semester as our secretary, Miyuki? Yes.
I will do everything I can to serve you to the best of my abilities, so please allow me to join you.
A-chan will explain the specifics of your duties, all right? Can I jump in here? The Student Council still hasn't filled the one remaining spot on the Disciplinary Committee, left by a departing graduate.
Mari I told you, we're still in the middle of the selection process.
If I'm not mistaken, selecting a Course 2 student as a Student Council nominee for the Disciplinary Committee wouldn't be in violation of the rules, right? Nice going! That's right, for the Disciplinary Committee, it would pose no problem.
Mari, the Student Council hereby nominates Tatsuya Shiba to the Disciplinary Committee.
Hold on a second, please! Don't I have any say in this? In the first place, you haven't even explained to me what it is that the Disciplinary Committee does! Well, we still haven't told your sister what her specific duties as a Student Council member are either.
Well, yeah, that's true, but Now, now, Rin, it's all right.
Tatsuya, the Disciplinary Committee maintains order at this school.
Is that all? Excuse me? U-Um, the main duties of the Disciplinary Committee are to charge those in violation of the school regulations regarding the use of magic, and to crack down on disorderly conduct involving magic.
Just in case, I'd like to confirm one thing What is it? If I understand correctly, whenever a fight breaks out, the Disciplinary Committee has to stop it by force is that right? Well, more or less.
And that holds true even if magic is being used Ideally, we'd stop it before they use any magic.
Excuse me, but I'm a Course 2 student because of my miserable scores in the practical exam! That's fine.
They have me to deal with tests of strength Right, I'd like to continue this after school.
Is that all right? Fine by me Enrollment Part II Magic Experiment Room C Occupied 1 - E Disciplinary Committee? Yeah, so anyway, I've got to go discuss it with them again after school.
Well, that sounds like a pain in the ass Isn't it dangerous, what the Disciplinary Committee does? Jeez she just does whatever she wants! It's your turn, Erika.
Sorry, sorry! But really, what a load of crap! Erika? All right! Slow Too slow Is this the best I can do? STUDENT COUNCIL OFFICE I don't belong here, after all.
Excuse us.
I'll just politely decline.
It's Tatsuya Shiba.
It's Miyuki Shiba.
Hey, you made it! Welcome, Miyuki! And thanks for coming, too, Tatsuya.
I'm the Vice President, Gyobu Hattori.
Welcome to the Student Council, Miyuki Shiba.
Let's get started, then.
A-chan, if you please.
Right.
Okay, then why don't we get moving? Where to? The Disciplinary Committee headquarters.
Since it would probably be easier for you to watch and learn.
Ms.
Watanabe, please wait a moment.
What is it, Vice President Hanzo Gyobushojo Hattori? Please don't call me by my full name! Okay, then - Vice President Hanzo Hattori.
It's Gyobu Hattori! That's not a name, it's a government post of your family, right? We no longer hold that office.
At this school, I'm registered as Gyobu Hattori No, that's not what I meant to say! Then what is it? I am opposed to that first year being appointed to the Disciplinary Committee.
No Weed has ever been appointed to the Disciplinary Committee before.
It's forbidden to refer to the Course 2 students as Weeds You have some nerve, uttering that term in front of me.
Glossing over it won't do any good.
Or do you intend to bust over a third of the entire student body? The Disciplinary Committee's job is to crack down on students in violation of the rules using practical skills.
A Weed couldn't hack it - their skills are inferior.
It's true that the Disciplinary Committee is meritocracy-based, but there's more than one kind of practical skill.
Tatsuya has the eyesight and brains to read activation sequences directly, and accurately predict which spell is about to be activated.
Impossible Even an Essential Singularity-type activation sequence is loaded with data - as much as 30,000 letters of the alphabet! There's no way that he could read it in an instant! Common sense tells us that there's no way.
That's precisely why his skills are so valuable.
He's sure to become a powerful deterrent towards all those would-be violators who keep getting off easy because we can never establish their crimes.
Also, there's one more reason why I want him on my committee.
Just as you say, at this school, there's an emotional chasm between the Course 1 and Course 2 students.
The Course 1 students police the Course 2 students, but never the other way around.
This system has only served to deepen the rift.
I'm just not a fan of the notion of allowing the committee that I lead to foster such a sense of discrimination.
President As Vice President, I am against appointing Tatsuya Shiba to the Disciplinary Committee.
A Course 2 student lacking magical power would be in over his head on the Disciplinary Committee! Just a minute! It's true that my brother's practical test scores were sub-par, but only because his skills were incompatible with the method of assessment! In an actual battle, my brother would never lose to anyone.
Ms.
Shiba! A magician must recognize everything as it is, calmly and rationally.
Because we possess the power to make the impossible possible, we are expected to train ourselves rigorously to serve the public interest.
An aspiring magician cannot allow her judgment to be clouded by nepotism.
Pardon me for saying so, but my judgment isn't clouded in the least.
With my brother's true abilities, he could Vice President Hattori Will you take me on in a simulated battle? What? Don't be so arrogant! You, a mere reserve! What's so funny? You said it yourself just now Magicians must strive to be calm, am I right? Not that I want to be on the Disciplinary Committee or anything But if I'm going to prove that my sister's judgment isn't clouded, I have no choice.
Fine.
I'm going to show you just how much you need to know your place! I'm so sorry There's no reason for you to apologize.
But once again, I've caused trouble for you, and it's all my fault Didn't I tell you the day of the matriculation ceremony? You're always getting angry in my place, since I can't get angry myself and it always picks me up.
Don't tell me that you're sorry.
I know a more fitting phrase for this moment.
Yes Good luck! Sorry to keep you waiting.
Do you always carry around multiple storage devices? Yes.
Since I don't have sufficient processing skills to master a general CAD.
I'm going to explain the rules now.
Spells that prove fatal, as well as those that cause your opponent irreparable damage are forbidden.
Direct attacks should never cause your opponent any more than a sprain.
Weapons are prohibited.
Bare-handed attacks are permitted.
The winner will be declared either when one party acknowledges defeat, or when the referee determines that one party is unable to continue.
I myself will be using sheer force to deal with any infractions of the rules, so be prepared! That's it.
In a battle between magicians, whoever strikes first with a spell wins.
And a Bloom would never lose to a Weed, thanks to the speed of his CAD-based spell activation.
Not only that, but I hear that my opponent's practical skills are weak, even for a Weed.
I've already won before the match begins Right after it starts, I'm going to launch a speed-oriented, simple activation sequence and have it complete before Shiba's.
I'm going to cast an Essential Singularity-type Movement Spell It will knock him back ten meters And the shock will render him unfit for battle.
Victory will be mine! Are you ready? Begin! The winner is Tatsuya Shiba! Enrollment Part III NEXT TIME
I apologize for causing you any trouble.
That should do, Mari, don't you think? Tatsuya it really was just a learning experience for you, right? It's not as if students are prohibited from teaching each other, but the implementation of magic entails some detailed restrictions.
