Description
The year is 2095. Magic has been tamed as another form of technology, and the practice of magic is now a rigorous discipline. Brother and sister Tatsuya and Miyuki Shiba are just about to start their first year at the renowned First Magic High School of Japan. But the school's ironclad rules mean that the brilliant Miyuki enters the prestigious Course 1, while her older brother, Tatsuya, is relegated to Course 2--and that's just the beginning of their troubles.

It's Iris Zero + Mx0 + Kikou Shoujo wa Kizutsukanai
Meaning guy with no special ability surrounded by people who do (Iris Zero) so he has to rely on his intellect/physical ability (Iris Zero/Mx0). Meanwhile he's got a sister that's completely loyal to him and is top of the line herself. (Kikou).
All in all, the formula isn't bad, so it won't be boring just because it has those elements.

This isn't a true review on my part, just personal comment. The series is interesting so far but I realized with dread that it seems to be a monthly if not bi-monthly series...and with an average page count of 27 pages, I just know I'm gonna tear my hair out in frustration at the future cliffhangers and slow pacing. My suggestion to you people, put it on your reading list/hold list if you've already started; and wait for a year or two (I am completely serious.) for a decent buffer of chapters before starting. I'm already feeling twitchy due to a need to know what happens next.
Protagonist may be ok but...

This manga still follows a cliche that brings it down. That being the the protagonist has a huge sister complex and conversely the sister has a huge brother complex. It's sickening and really throws off the story as they will do anything for each other.
So far it hasn't gotten in the way but the sibling complex is a known cliche that doesn't take effect until late in the game. So this manga has started surprisingly well but I can say with confidence that it will turn into a mess because of this cliche.

It's kind of rare to see the level-headed smart type of main character in shounen, so just for that the manga kind of stands out in a good way.
Apart from that, scenario seems interesting for now (but it's too soon to conclude), and art is well done.
A good read, for now it deserves 8.

Theme is kind of similar to Iris Zero.But It's not anything like Iris Zero.This is an action packed series with a really interesting MC,Which is MKnRs main selling point.
MC is really similar to Kazuma from kaze no stigma(in background,persanality and in powers in thieir respective universes').
So anyone who's fed up with the normal shounen protaganist or liked KnS you are welcome to read this(I guess)
Edit:Yeah,It sure follows the sis & bro compelx cliche.Needless to say I too hate that aspect about the series but I still like the novel .There's more to it than that and you will be surprised if I were to tell you that his sis-con ness has a scientifical reason.(yeah I know,krazy right?)
Still it's full of shounen cliches though.
A quote from the novel,
Her elder brother, that person was
special. The people of the world call her a
genius. That was the praise that they gave
to special individuals, people that
were different from themselves. --In fact, they understood nothing
at all. The truly impressive, special, bona
fide genius, should be her elder
brother. That person existed in a different
dimension. They could not even comprehend
that. For those that hide their personal
jealousy to flatter others, they
probably couldn't understand. True talent that towers over lesser
mortals, that draws a terror that
transcends jealousy. Not awe, but terror. The man who by all rights would be
the father of these two siblings
crumpled before that terror.

The theme kind of reminds me of Iris Zero. It's pretty typical to have a flawed protagonist in a supernatural setting. I read up to the 4th chapter beforehand, and now that the 5th chapter was released I think that the series has taken a very interesting turn.
If you like the magic school theme, then it doesn't hurt checking this one out.

Only four chapters out, but so far it does seem quite good!
The major selling-point here is obviously the Main Character. While its far to early to do a proper character-review, this guy has definitely picked my interest!
If this was a normal shounen manga, the Main Caracter would be a bookdumb, hotblooded dude who must train hard to beat the "Genius Rival".
Well this time that "Genius Rival" IS the Main Character. For some this is bad, but if you're the type to prefer more calm and intelligent characterers, then this manga may just be for you.
