This volume's main event was supposed to be the Miyuki-Shizuku duel in the final of the Ice Pillars Break. It still unfolded as it did in the The Irregular at Magic High School anime. But one thing the anime didn't have was an expanded version of Honoka's victory in her event. The slimmed down version in the anime made it look it was an easy victory, but in the spin-off, it was still a dominating but well earned victory.
This is a companion series to the Irregular at Magic High. This manga series is definitely more geared towards men. The world is really creative. However, if you aren't a fan of a sister that adores her brother (and will do anything to make him happy) or some of the suggestive clothing then you might want to pass. Tsutomu Satou has a weird idea of what he thinks women spend their time discussing.
