Niha happens to swallow a “Crystal Pearl” that is supposed to use for magic examination. Since then, her exciting days with cool wizard guys, Zero and Ichii, begin.

Which of course involves the two defending Niha from people chasing her it seems. To be specific this blonde haired guy and this purple haired girl. I need to find the official site for this and double check the names if possible.

I'm not sure what to think yet, but it's already show signs it's not meant to be taken too seriouly. Heck the purple haired girl herself who is supposed to be a villain or at least an atagonist is well rather cutesy and silly in personality as far as I can tell.

Then again for all I know that may just be an act and she's really an extremely cunning evil master mind. It's also possible "villain" is too strong a word. Things may change in the later episodes. I am only on episode 2 right now. About to watch episode 3 and 4 shortly.

All right I've seen up to episode 7 now. It seems they're still introducing the characters. With part of their introduction being having them chase Nina for the sake of the "Crystal Pearl". Wow that thing must be rare and popular... Which makes sense given that the thing is part of a magic test.

In any case even with the introduction of other characters, I'm still fond of San herself the most. In fact episode 5 is actually dedicated to San and Forute. Probably one of the more interesting episodes in the series.

Given the fact they're still playing the character introduction game, I hope this will be at least 26 episodes. So that way they can spend a decent amount of time on fleshing out certain members after most of the major introductions are done. I'm also hoping Nina gets some benefit out of swallowing that thing.

Darn it, I was reading a post at the "evil" forum and apparently this will be only 13 episodes. This despite the fact as of episode 8 which was a <span style='color:#dddddd;background:#dddddd'>body switch episode between Zero and Nina where the fun part was Zero taking advantage of the situation it seems</span>, they still have yet to introduce all the characters. At least of the ones in the opening that don't looks generic or like stock characters.

I'm starting to fear the number "13" now. It's like there is some evil plot going on here with these shows. Let's make sure the series is only 13 episodes just to spite people. I guess the best thing I can hope for is that the series will get a second season or whatever. Right now I'll just remained worried about them finishing the character introductions of the various pairs.

In any case reading a blog it seems that there is some sort of numbering game going on with the students' names. Heh that would explain Zero being named Zero. What better number to begin the theme with? Although honestly in general I don't know the Japanese names for numbers. So I can't be sure how close their names are to the Japanese version of the numbers. Of course reading blogs is both informative and creepy. Now I know for certain about Rokka's age. <span style='color:#dddddd;background:#dddddd'>She's actually five years old, but she uses magic to make herself look older</span> Also I learned that Nanase is a trap and here I thought he was a girl at first. Darn it, I hate traps.
