The Irregular at Magic High School

In the early 21st century, magic has shifted from legend to engineered reality—an established technology taught like any other technical discipline. At First High School, a prestigious academy for magicians, students are ranked by entrance exam results and split into two tracks: the elite First Course “Blooms,” and the Second Course “Weeds,” who are treated as reserves.

Tatsuya and Miyuki Shiba enter the school together, but their placements immediately set them apart. Miyuki’s exceptional performance earns her a spot among the Blooms, while Tatsuya is assigned to the Weeds due to low practical scores. Yet behind that label, he hides remarkable technical expertise, formidable close-quarters combat skill, and unconventional magical abilities—qualities that make him anything but ordinary within the school’s rigid system.
