THE IRREGULAR AT MAGIC HIGH SCHOOL MOVIE WARC MOVIEThey author stated that this movie is primarily targeted for the fans that keep up with the novels, so the best way to enjoy this movie is to have a good idea about what transpired between the anime series and the movie. The reason I say this is that there are characters(Lina in particularly) and events that are referenced(via flashback or other means) that are in the film, but do not appear in the anime and only appear in the LN volumes that I've mentioned. THE IRREGULAR AT MAGIC HIGH SCHOOL MOVIE WARC FULLPSA: To get the full amount of the enjoyment of the film, you should either:ī)Read the summaries on the Mahouka wiki to at least get a grasp of those volumes and what transpires in them. Just don't expect this to be a real continuation of the anime series as this is just mostly a standalone action flick(though it technically is considered canon). Even if you didn't like the TV anime series, you might like this more if your main problem with the TV anime was its pacing and minimal action. Overall, the movie should be a very enjoyable experience to fans who keep up with the source material and even anime only fans should have fun watching the characters go on another adventure/mission. The only cons I have are the fact that if you've haven't read volumes 8-11 of the LN, you'll be a bit lost and confused about some things that transpire or happened in between the movie and the TV series(The movie takes place after volume 11), the movie's production value could have been a bit higher(it looked more like a glorified OVA than an actually theatrical film), and it could have done with a longer run-time(like 15-30 minutes longer would have been nice). Also for the fan service lovers, there's a few scenes in the movie that you'll be happy to see. The story was pretty straight forward and not to convoluted, which allowed it to be more The movie was also very comical, quite a few scenes had the audience in my viewing cracking up. The action is fun and exciting, not just Tatsuya, multiple characters get to kick some ass. The movie flowed quite nicely with no overly long info dumps that messed up the pacing in the TV anime. I'm gonna keep this short and spoiler free. I attended one of the theatrical releases and I'd have to say as a fan of the novels, I came away very satisfied.
