Where to start; this light novel takes the typical magic/mecha harem battle school setting and plays around with it. Not much time is taken to explain the origin of the fantasy elements, instead it jumps straight into the action.

PROS:
- Exact opposite of harem in every way
- Cool protagonist, kind when he needs to be, cruel when he needs to be
- Excellent heroine, find out for yourself, she is different from the usual tsundere
- Cool battles, they are thought out well enough and get better as the series progresses
- Interesting world building, a dark, cynical and totally screwed up dystopia masked under typical high school antics
- Comedy, unlike many light novel with similar premises, this one has actual comedy in it, and it doesn't always rely on ecchi to accomplish it
- Episodic, there are ongoing conflicts, but the individual volumes are self-contained

CONS:
- Protagonist sometimes shows random weaknesses when he is usually shown to be very strong
- Yandere imouto
- Short volumes
- Dem rocket missiles are a tad too big
- Asspull powers, some of the characters randomly exhibit abilities that make little sense making the battles a little hard to follow

For a change of pace we get a main character that isn't retarded (and denser than a log regarding love) nor a smug asshat flaunting how smart he is. The fights are interesting, none of them feeling like uber curb-stompings (barring a few cases ruled by common sense) and the relationship between the main characters is enough to give you hypoglicemia.
Good read, though not perfect.
