Aniplex USA is getting a bit more caught up on these promos after the summer convention season likely sent everyone for a loop as we got the fifth one last week and now the sixth promotional short has arrived. The latest informational videos for the series The irregular at magic high school, which has new episodes coming out every Saturday on The Aniplex Channel, Hulu, Crunchyroll, and DAISUKI, has arrived. While a lot of promos for series run about 90 seconds or less, the one they have today is an adorable one that they’ve got fully translated into English which runs about three and a half minutes in length as it explores what the show is about in a cute and snarky way.
The light novel series this is based on has done well since its introduction in the summer of 2011 as earlier this year saw the release of the twelfth installment for it. The show is definitely on the fast track as part of Dengeki Bunko’s 20th anniversary push to bring more of its materials into the spotlight. The series is directed by Ono Manabu with character designs by Ishida Kana. Animation is being done by Madhouse.

The brother is an under achiever with some deficiencies and enrolls as a “Weed,” while his younger sister is an honor student, who enrolls as a “Bloom.” The brother, with a somewhat philosophical expression, and the younger sister who holds feelings a little stronger than sibling love for him… Ever since these two have entered through the gates of this prestigious school, the calm campus was beginning to change…
