First episode feels like a cross between Mushoku Tensei, 7th Prince and a few other anime that I can't put my finger on at the moment.

The shotacon maid is no Sylpha, but she's okay

I enjoyed the first episode. Kunon puts a lot of effort into becoming overpowered, and he's socially awkward without realizing it. It looks like the show is heading into the typical academy tropes, but I like most of the supporting cast so far.

Looks like a Magic School shenanigans show. Got the girl, got the rival, got the brother/suffering friend.


God job humiliating the rival, but once it becomes known he uses Water Magic .... well I guess how quick the rival puts 2 and 2 together depends on how bright he is.

Don't forget the exasperated teacher.

And this show starts with two episodes with the first being about Kunon's childhood who bears Daigo's curse, but spread throughout his descendants as opposed to it all happening to one person as Kunon's eyes are the only thing missing. He would be unstoppable as a mage if only he can see, and he's able to use water magic to be his eyes. So after the first episode focuses on his childhood, the second one he goes to the academy and makes friends among noble children and shows what he can do. A solid first episode as this show at least has something interesting going on that is actually done well.

The parents are real jerks. Isolate your kid then punish him for something that was completely accidental. How was that scene supposed to be funny once the dad started being an ass?

I got a good laugh when the magic teacher said she had nothing left to teach him just because he got really good with the most basic possible water spell. What kind of crappy teacher did they hire?

Going into some detail on the magic system would have been nice. I guess that's too much to ask from a show like this though.

So they spend time on his appearance, but just let his hair do whatever like some kind spider plant.

Kind of meh so far, but at least the kid has an actual personality beyond just being really good at magic.

Mildly amusing, funny way to get rid of a bully. I hope everyone starts calling him peepee pants prince LOL. At least he won't be at the school long (they did say he was only there to take the 5 exams) though not sure where this can go after that.

Y'know, in a less-packed season I'd probably keep this, but the meh level in Episode 2 was even more meh than Episode 1 so I shall bid this farewell just to trim my queue.

I love that the Royal sorcerers seem to be a group of goofballs just as a whole, excited at new ways to be silly with magic.

Of the three noble boy shows, I like this one the best, mainly thanks to the supporting cast. I'm not saying it's high quality, but it's definitely staying on my watch list.

I suppose his dad thought the made told him noble men keep mistresses outside of the house....

The second princess said she's not engaged...you know what that means...although the way she interacts with the silver haired water sorcerer, I assume she's into him

That was a pretty good episode. The sorcerers were all a bit silly, but not over the top about it.

And the princess looks better in red.

How many of the princesses/princes do you think he will be engaged to by the end of the season?

While this show has been interesting to see Kunon making use of his special abilities to use as a substitute for eyes, it just doesn't do anything for me as the story has been all over the place. Nevertheless, it was quite a cool thing to see Kunon using ice on his feet to move faster than walking.

@runec I get the feeling this show isn't going harem. Could be wrong of course.

So Princess is realizing she needs to keep up. Be interesting to see how she chooses to develop herself.

and Crab....Giant Crab

yep best Rich Boy anime of the season

So at a guess some kind of spirit sight. Preview for next episode seems to be showing added attributes to various characters. New puzzle to figure out at a guess these offer insights into people's personalities.

Well, that was pretty easy. It took him one all nighter and he made them.

Suddenly, crab.

Well that took an unexpected left turn.

That shot of the carriage near the end was so bad. It was almost "Frieren looking up" level of terrible.

I like that it's kind of screwed up and confusing for him.
This is something he has to figure out on his own and there is no one that can really explain it to him.

It's very odd that he and his teacher wouldn't even think of maybe trying to adjust his eye spell somehow so he could see what other people see. Also how would he know what he's even seeing? How would he know that's a quill or a crab or wings?

He could read and interpret pictures with his finger already.

Yes it's a bit fast though.

Kunon the sorcerer is going to grow up to be a man whore.

I appreciate it skipped the month(?) worth of travel time.
