The Irregular At Magic High School is a magical sci-fi high school anime with magical prodigies, cool futuristic weapons, and controversial characters.

The show has two seasons so far (one of which is still ongoing), one movie, one ONA, and one special.

6. Quick Review

I. Story

The story of The Irregular At Magic High School is really unique.

It mixes technology and magic together in a way that we get various explanations guiding us through the working of magic.

There are also rules set in this world that really give the anime a realistic structure and a very cool concept. 

II. Characters

Unfortunately, The Irregular At Magic High School fails at character development.

Their designs are beautiful, and they have diverse personalities, but they just don’t grow as people throughout the show.

The main character is overpowered and wins every single battle instantly, making the show’s engagement very low.

III. Animation

The animation is done brilliantly by Studio Madhouse and makes each scene a pleasure to witness.

The action is fast-paced and demonstrates unique magical powers that each character possesses. 

IV. Sound

The soundtrack, especially the opening theme, is incredibly catchy and will make you want to not skip the opening. The special effect sounds provide depth to the action and are overall a great addition to the anime.
