main cast
In a world where people with magic powers are close to being wiped out: just as the balance of power and military might has once shifted from swords to sorcery, it shifts to guns once again. Kusanagi Takeru goes to AntiMagic Academy, a training facility for Inquisitors of Herectics who crack down on the dwindling threat posed by magic users. However, Takeru cannot use guns at all and can only fight with a sword. As a result, he is relegated to the 35th Test Platoon, the motley "small fry platoon" for students who do not seem to fit in anywhere else. One day, Ootori Ouka, the ultra-elite pistol master who already has her qualifications for witch-hunts, also joins the platoon.

Eh it was okay; Enjoyable art, easy to follow plot (though nothing special really) but to be honest? Characters and character development was overly generic. It doesn't help that it ends in a cliffhanger. Basically massive siscon becomes a witch hunter and gets assigned as the captain of the worst team of witch hunters (inquisitors more appropriately) which then becomes his harem(ofc he is the only man in his team).
Recommended for ACtion/harem lovers but probably borderline only for fans

The premise is pretty standard, but for a harem ecchi show this one is pretty surprising. The story is astonishingly disturbing and all the characters have proper arcs. Granted, all of them feel rushed, but I was still invested while watching.
The story isn't finished as such, but all the major emotional arcs are resolved.
The ecchi isn't explicit and mostly there to give some contrast, so the serious parts don't make it too depressing.
Generic writing, but well-animated, well-directed and darker than one would expect. Good fun.
PS: Dem subtle popcorn jokes. <3

The basic concept of the series is a bit run of the mill. And it shows a little, especially at the beginning. The story picks up speed and the plot increasing depth a few episodes in though.
The characters are likeable and not all that flat (and I'm not even talking about the girls' chests) and they all go through at least a certain growth. The soundtrack is quite alright, the art is good as well.
The plot is actually quite decent (although far from finished after episode 12), with a good number of twists and hidden depths.
All in all I very much enjoyed this series and indeed watched it in one go (there goes my night). If you like supernatural/magical action and don't mind some haremity (if that wasn't a word, it is now), this is a good choice!

It's typical harem/action anime, just till last episode, which shows how deep and twisted plot it (at least has potential) can be. Nevertheless it was nice watch.

A pretty enjoyable watch although it feels like a lot has been left unsaid. Could do with a second season.

This was a pretty laid back series. All the characters have their own quirks and backstories.
If this series did one thing really well, it was explaining all the character's histories.
Aside from that, there was a lot of harem, but not so much on the ecchi side. If you're looking for a light series some good action, this will be enjoyable.

This series starts off interesting with a plot of magic, military and missions; however as the series progressed the uniqueness of the plot turned into a very standard action/harem anime. All of the main characters are likeable, so if you enjoy action/harem/fanservice type anime, you'll have fun but just feels like a standard watch.

This hair length is what one would typically, though not always, see on most males. Short hair includes hair that goes no more than a centimetre or two beyond the chin; anything longer is shoulder-length.

Please also see this tag`s full description for other information on how to use it., drill hairAn easy way to tell if a female character in Japanese media is of high social standing is to not look for a crown or an Ermine Cape, but to look at the front of her head. Specifically, look for two long, curled locks of hair, framing the face. If she has them, she either is high class or acts like it.
Needless to say, this is pretty much mandatory for the Ojou. Some Elegant Gothic Lolitas also sport this hairstyle., hair bangsHair bangs are a shaped cutting of the front part of the hair so it lies over the forehead. Bangs are usually cut fairly straight - at or above the eyebrows, but can also be curled, ragged/ruffled, spiked up with hair gel, mousse or wax, swept aside, or cut longer to fall over the eyes., human weaponThis tag applies to weapons that can take up a human-shaped form (Bleach and Soul Eater), artificially created human-like entities (Angeloids from Sora no Oto, Dragoons from ScrappedPrincess) and engineered humans (Chise from Saikano, Saiko Yuki from Silent Möbius)., necklaceno description set, pantyhosePantyhose are sheer, close-fitting legwear, covering the body from the waist to the feet., purple hairThis character`s hair is colored somewhere between red and blue.
