If it was gonna be a magical show from this season, I would have been more jazzed by either Witch Craft Works (1st choice) or Wizard Barristers (2nd choice). See what happens when I am not consulted?

By the by, how do you know they'll be announcing stuff all week - this was announced on a social media site?

I hope it was cheap, I really do.
Look, I'm an easy going kind of guy. I like a lot of dumb anime. I liked Leviathan, and watch Pretty Cure and Saint Seiya Omega, for crying out loud. But this thing....
That was the worst first episode I've ever seen. Literally everything was bad, and I mean BAD, from the OP music to the absolute piss-poor excuse for exposition. I mean, my God, I've never seen exposition this bad, and characters this retarded in the same series, let alone same episode. I cannot find a single nice thing to say about the first episode of Magical Warfare. It makes 11Eyes look like End Of Evangelion.

Wow okay Sentai don't bother licensing anything actually good.

Also I haven't bothered to watch this so I may be wrong, but is it just me or does the plot of this series sound like it's making a poor attempt to echo Fate/Stay Night or what?

It's funny how the artwork of this series looks similar to someone who's worked with Type-Moon.

ANN hasn't posted it yet, but Sentai's FB page confirms that Wednesday's licensing announcement is for Wizard Barristers - yay!

How could I not love a show about a half-Canadian/half-Japanese character who wears a Maple Leaf scooter helmet???
