Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei

It has reached the month of April in 2096, and various aspects of Tatsuya's life was changing as he advances to the second year. Tatsuya and Mizuki transferred to the newly established Department of Magical Engineering, and Mikihiko has also transferred out of Course 2, and was now a Course 1 student. Along with this change, Tatsuya and Miyuki were now living with Minami who was sent to stay with them by the Yotsuba Family. Tatsuya enters the school year hoping they would have a peaceful student life this time around, but the new year meant the arrival of new students, like Kasumi and Izumi, the twins of the Sagusa Family, and Takuma Shippou, the new student valedictorian who feels a rivalry towards the Saegusa Family. All of them having their own quirk or two, for better or for worse...

The entrance ceremony has ended, and club recruitment of the freshmen has begun. Amidst the competitive recruitment frenzy, the Robot Research Club and Motorcycle Club were getting in a heated stare off over a freshman that both clubs were aiming to recruit. Kasumi, from the Disciplinary Committee, and Shippou, from the Extracurricular Activities Federation, intervene. However, now the two who had come to break up the fight begin arguing amongst themselves over who should have authority over the situation, and were on the brink of initiating a physical fight. Meanwhile, Koichi, the head of the Saegusa Family, was devising a plan to mitigate the Yotsuba Family's power through a false anti-magician campaign that the USNA's Humanist Extremist group was drawing up for the media.

Information gets out that Kanda, an anti-magic advocate and Diet member, will visit First High School with the media to observe the school's curriculum, claiming that he has heard disturbing rumors about it. He plans to create an uproar with the media and assert that the school is brainwashing students into the military - if he finds anything suspicious of that nature. To stop this ploy, Tatsuya suggests performing an experiment showing the students creating a Sustained Gravity Control-Type Magic Thermonuclear Fusion Reactor = Stellar Furnace. The students plan on demonstrating that the magic education they receive at the school can solve energy problems, and that magic can contribute to the peace of humankind depending on the type of magic they use.
