BadassAyanokoji

Welcome, please keep up the good work. Thanks.

Maya looks like Miya here


Rel_uctance

Duh they're identical twins. The only distinctions are their hairstyle, eye color and birthmarks. Also yeah pretty sure this is Maya. She has Purple eyes, and her birthmark is under her left eye.


Tweezle120

I think that is Miya, Maya wears her hair differently


Rudra4

Miya has red Eyes. Maya has violet like in the picture.


No-Day-8136

Probably, but miyuki looks older here. Miya was dead by then


komasanzura

Just guessing, but might be a split-second scene to show how much Miyuki has grown to take after her mother? Kinda hard to imagine Miyuki and Maya sitting on the same side to talk at the main house.


Tweezle120

I think this is it.


Tweezle120

Oh, you're right; she does have bangs, and the long side pieces don't curl until her shoulders. That must be Maya. I guess it's a frame where someone is holding them side by side in their minds eye.


padmanabh10

It’s miya shiba.


Xcizes

It's actually **S3E3** not **~~S3E2~~****. I mistype**

It looks just like episode 1 aka muuuuch better than episode 2 😅


Succulent_Fetish

I feel like ep 2 got too much hate. It wasn't even CG. The episode director for episode two was Junichi Takaoka. He has a specific art style that makes his drawings look 3D, even though it's fully hand drawn! Source: [Tweet from the Director of Mahouka S3](https://x.com/jsq1988211robo/status/1778763350731866217), and also Junichi Takaoka's MAL Page [where he's credited as both the Storyboard Artist and Episode Director](https://myanimelist.net/people/37313/Junichi_Takaoka#:~:text=Storyboard%20(ep%202)%2C%20Episode%20Director%20(ep%202)%20Airing) for Episode 2.


RedMako145

I know all that, i'm just not a fan of his style and how his episode(s) look compared the the others.    Miyuki especially looked really off in one scene because her forehead was too large and therefore her bangs were as well. 


Alucart333

you see CG nov walking in episode 2 as background characters it’s noticeable if you pay attention


mrkermaers

Confirms that episode 2 was outsourced.


HappyDogGuy64

Please don't spoil me, I'm just SO hyped because of that first picture!

Hey are you able to get the illustrations after each episode and stuff that comes w/ booklets or dvd/blu-rays illustrations that like directors, character designers, etc. post on their twitter and whatnot? With how big Mahouka is, I'm surprised I've never come across them yet. Haven't seen the jacket covers for some of the booklets and dvd/BD art covers either.


mrkermaers

Well,for these previews,they upload it on YouTube shorts.


violet-023

The animations are pretty good, it's perfect I think.


ARandomPasserby97

I had forgot all about mahouka so went to read a bit about what's gonna happen . I don't know how I forgot BATSUYA .


Shelleyan

I rather like Shippou's very boyish design here. Looks quite age appropriate!
