There is an uncanny misconception floating around in regards to "overpowered characters" and that according to such existence the whole show is deemed bad from the get-go. Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei also fell into this rabbit hole and apparently even our savior Tatsuya can't do much to stop all the lies from spreading. I didn't mean to, but you leave me no choice - I'm putting an end to this pandemonium.
--------------------------------
After 5 years of agony waiting for a sequel with only a side-story movie put in between, the second season of Mahouka came in all of its glory featuring one of the fan-favorite protagonists in ... all of anime and a much-loved yet inexplicably controversial show in itself. Back in 2014 when it first aired, some people with dicks in their mouths raised their hand and asked one question only: Who in Alabama made this anime - to which everyone within a 5-mile radius simultaneously answered - it is much deeper than you think and they weren't wrong at all since to understand this anime and why it matters in their life, you need a 5-year degree of stay on Facebook and 2 in their most repugnant groups so that your IQ will increase and come into the realization this anime is not simply a self-insert shtick with incest added to flavor it up.
It's about Tatsuya and his teachings that we must appreciate. The story of a simple fellow who never wanted and never thought of becoming who he is now but because of this great power he has no choice but to use it for the greater good even if it means the worst outcome for lot of. A not easy task to fulfill but one that must go until the very bottom. With him there's his sister, the core of the nonsense controversial people think it has. She's there to help her brother but whenever she's got the chance she tries to suck his dick but Tatsuya has better plans for her. He's playing the long game here and acting that he doesn't care about her in a romantic way and that he's just tempting her where in reality he's waiting for the moment Miyuki's defense is at a bare minimum so he can strike a big maneuver on her. With the advantage of 69 no imouto would be able to resist his true behavior and may God have mercy on Miyuki's pussy on that faithful night because he's gonna crush it.

I saw Mahouka back in 2017 and liked it a lot, so much that it became a personal favorite of mine. At the time I had (still have) a certain love for the overpowered characters and the whole concept of Mahouka, as well as the characters and their quirky personalities, made my heart Doki-Doki (although it wasn't the first time). Tatsuya's interaction with her sister was indeed a blast - her blushing for every word her onii-sama said made me undertake a non-healthy path I never thought I'd take - to self-insert to guys like him and be successful as I've always wanted - surrounded by a bunch of girls, making them do naughty things to me or to each other, and much more I don't think you want to know. Unlike back then, I rarely do it anymore, but I still appreciate it enough to tell the tale and what a riveting tale it was. Despite my early years of watching anime and the fact at the time I could've liked perhaps everything, Raihousha-hen it's almost as good as its predecessor. It would have been better if we had gotten a 2-cour season instead. Not only we would have fleshed out some prominent characters more but because the story itself needed more time to get it done in a more impactful way, albeit it was great anyway.
Despite its predictable premise, Mahouka never goes downhill as each character is written in a nuance that enhances the story the right way but still makes the protagonist shine without making it seem forced. One of the ways they go about is the dialogue and is DONE RIGHT. Unlike LoGH who is there to pad for some time, here it has an identity within its story and not only serves as a tool to give the little exposition we need to understand the next puzzle pieces but also give some growth to them as well foreshadows what will happen to them later. While it's obvious Tatsuya has the most important role, others are no less either because without them even Tatsuya wouldn't have much against certain situations and it's a great way to show how much he growth but also that he's not simply an "overpowered character" with no purpose at all. He has his friends, his adorable sister and a bunch of other guys and honestly, that's just for the better.
Mahouka is not a bad show AND I'M ANGRY YOU DISLIKE SOMETHING I LIKE. GAH.
