This is a review of Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto – Natsu no Sora, a show about a girl who goes to Tokyo to study Magic. Although I offer my “final thoughts”, I have attempted to keep this review as spoiler-free as possible. I address the question of genre, and remark on the artwork. [...]

Having slowly but surely warmed to this series and the sense of happy relaxation it frequently washed over me, I was hoping for a similarly happy ending to Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto - Natsu no Sora to offset the slightly depressing turn that the story took in the last couple of episodes. With that in mind, I wasn't entirely thrilled with the ending to this show, as it was at best

After a rather depressing outing last time around, the penultimate episode of Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto - Natsu no Sora at least returns us to a happier place... Well, more or less. The majority of this episode focuses on the magic students final exam (which they all pass of course), followed by their graduation ceremony - This brings good news for both Sora and Gota, as aside from both

After having enjoyed Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto - Natsu no Sora for its relaxing and almost soothing qualities, I was more than a little surprised to find things suddenly take such a depressing turn in episode ten. After seeing Sora together with Seiichirou in the last episode, and getting completely the wrong end of the stick, the episode begins with what seems to be both Gota and Sora

Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto - Natsu no Sora continues on its rather sweet and sedate way, somehow managing to keep me hooked with its strangely addictive charms as we enter what I suppose you could call the home straight episodes. After Sora finally helped Gota make proper use of his magical powers last time around, Gota looks to thank her by taking her out on a date "of sorts", which ends

It's time for another episode of Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto - Natsu no Sora, and this time around the episode is all about... dolphins. That's right, dolphins. With Sora recovered from her illness and back at school, but still no sign of Kuroda, important news comes in to the Bureau of Magic - A large number of dolphins have been washed up on the shore of a beach somewhere, making for too

Yes, yes, I know, I've fallen horribly and terribly behind in my attempts to watch Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto - Natsu no Sora, due mainly to my stubbornly waiting for High Definition episodes that never emerged. So, with said stubborness compartmentalised and set aside, I'll be whipping through the remainder of this series as and when I can. This particular episodes focuses almost solely

Kuroda, you whiny brat….   At the end of last episode Midorikawa got message from Kuroda stating he’s quitting. This episode actually begins before this happened. Kuroda is growing tired of whiny clients and performing small magic.     He asks Asagi out on something that looks like a date.   They stroll through the old shopping mall   Of course Kuroda, fool that [...]

  Brats  look cute, but they can be a ton of trouble.   This episode had two parts. First was just hanging around in the town, with Sora still being sad because of her failure in previous episode   Then camed the ultra cute (arghh…sorry, ultra kawaii) brat, who wanted to have a kid and then ran away   The rest of the [...]

And there I thought I had only watched one series last season, but no, there was actually a second one! Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto ~Natsu no Sora~. It’s not really a review (or perhaps it is?), so bear with my random blurbs and what-not. I hope I got this one short enough this [...]

“Magic isn’t perfect” Another episode and again two new cases. This time though things didn’t go as smoothly as before. First was a request of old lady to reconstruct an object that was a memento after her loved one who died in WWII. It was pretty sweet story. Old lady didn’t even know what this [...]
