irregular at magic high school movie usa

Maybe the light novels do a better job at pacing and the overall plot, but the movie is little more than spectacle and fanservice. Overall, I left the movie a little dissappointed. The action portion of the movie, although spectacular, cannot save the movie from its weak storyline and character development.

As for the main characters, there is no growth or significant development in their story, or in any other recurring characters' stories. all of which are dismissed at the end of the movie. Like branches of the military attacking each other, an act of war from an outside nation, magician slavery, and tension between military and civilians.

things happen in the story that should have wider implications than what the movie allows. The new characters introduced barely get any characterization due to the bloated cast and the plot is problematic. The movie suffers from pacing whiplash, going from mysterious high-stakes action to slice-of-life cute girls doing cute things with a gratuitous amount of fanservice (the majority of the movie), back to serious, fast-paced action. The movie itself plays like an extended bonus episode rather than a continuation or culmination of the show it is based on. The irregular at magic high school movie, while visually interesting, suffers from poor pacing and a plot hole ridden storyline that represents a microcosm of the series as a whole.
