Another miss for me. I just couldn't get into this show. Too many wash-pans falling I think. Hope it does well for Sentai though.

Modern title made simple more like. Seriously, why do they insist on blanking out good titles in favor of horrible ones?

"blanking out"..?
It is a perfectly legitimate translation of the title. More colloquially they could have called it "Modern Magic for Dummies" (if they wanted to be sued that it). It might help if I pointed out that in a search on Amazon for よくわかる, this series is the 11th result, under a bunch of Microsoft Office textbooks. |

Yeah, I think about the only way to make it more literal would have been something like, "Well Understood Modern Magic." If I were a fan of this title, I suppose I might appreciate it if S23 slapped the Japanese title somewhere on the box for good measure, but at least it didn't get the, "Cat Planet Cuties," treatment.
