* Tatsuya supposedly ended up in the second course because the test aren't reflective of his own true skill. That seems fair, except that magicians are shown to be considered military assets first and foremost, is shown multiple times during the series. Tatsuya is a high-regarded member of the military, who is very aware of his skills, so they must have been aware (as Tatsuya was) that his skills wouldn't have emerged in those tests. Yet instead of updating them or revising them to make sure that him and similar students wouldn't go unnoticed they kept the system as it is.

* The Yotsuba wanted a magician who could protect all their children, so why was the result so apocalyptic? Because with humans, [[ExactWords everybody is related- however distantly- to everybody else]]. The clan didn't specify "someone strong enough to protect our direct descendants" or "someone strong enough to protect everyone who has the Yotsuba surname". They said, "''our children''", so where does the spell stop? Do foreigners like Lina count as relatives because she and the Yotsuba have a common ancestor? If so, how much power would someone sculpted to protect relatives across the globe need? It's just another way that the Yotsuba got ''exactly'' what they asked for, [[LiteralGenie and nothing less]].

* The '''only''' reason Miyuki found the truth in ''Reminiscence'' is because she was lucky. If Miya had cared about keeping her actions secret, [[[[LaserGuidedAmnesia she could have]]. If Miyuki hadn't almost died, she would never have learned what Tatsuya could do-- remember that he wasn't even vaguely interested in telling her the truth beforehand. If any of those things didn't happen, or happened a different way, she would have stayed an oblivious pawn forever.

* Some of the songs in the original soundtrack take cues from Indian classical music ([[https://youtu.be/5u1AC_ebPEw example]]). The genre choice is a subtle nod to Tatsuya's [[RedBaron nickname]], Mahesvara, which is an epithet of [[DestroyerDeity Shiva]], one of the primary gods of [[Myth/HinduMythology Hinduism]].
** Another musical example is [[https://youtu.be/4d1XzN5Ew0I this song]], which features lyrics from the Bollywood song "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai." The lyrics, when translated, talk about the feelings the singer has when someone they love gets close to them. Fitting that it plays in scenes where Tatsuya is alone with Miyuki, the only person who can gauge an emotional response from him.

There's no need to add context or retell canon events when troping. Assume that othe tropers have also read the source material.

Mixed with Fridge Horror, but why Miyuki is repulsed by men other than her brother, and loves only her brother, with almost no thoughts on how it is incestuous, may be due to the fact that she is an artificial human. Perhaps they designed her to have no problems with incest, or put a spell on her to not be romantically attracted to anyone but Tatsuya. It would clear up a lot of plot holes with a type of solution that the Yostuba have shown to be capable and WILLING to use.
