Epiusode 3 - HS

Another jolly ep as far as I'm concerned. The scientific magic is working quite nicely, all in all, and the theories and explanations are no worse than in Star Trek. It's also good not every single male of Course 1 will immediately hate Tatsuya, though plenty surely do. I found it a bit of a stretch the whole fricking club would attack a member of the disciplinary committee disregarding any consequences, but perhaps the foolish captain had only let in dudes similar to himself, that is, even bigger fools. I hope the female member of the other club Tatsuya is no doubt highly impressing won't become another one falling for him.

The most interesting scene was the private lab Tatsuya was working in and Miyuki visited. While I was theoretically displeased by the growing incest theme, I was, however, quite fascinated by how that scene ended. It seemed to me Miyuki attacked Tatsuya with considerable force and Tatsuya's body automatically restored itself, although I belive he might have lost the most recent memories. This very much gave me the impression Miyuki has not only done that before but thinks nothing much of it, which would bring me to the other question: Tatsuya's humanity. Is he a regular human or some artificial thing? He seems to be omniscient rather than omnipotent, which is somewhat strange for a mere high schooler. That Miyuki can so offhandedly damage him suggests, to me, that she doesn't view him as a human being although she still loves him. Perhaps Tatsuya was nearly killed and seriously wounded in the past, saving Miyuki no doubt, and he was restored as some scientific magic zombie who remembers stuff perfectly like a computer but can't output magic like a human magician.
