Macademi Wasshoi! takes two of my personal favorite genres, screwball comedy and magic-school fantasy, and makes a wreck out of both of them.

Harem romantic comedies are a tired enough genre that producers have to try very hard to come up with something fresh and new, or even just something that breaks even slightly away from the pack. This series may not ultimately succeed at it, but it certainly makes an effort by throwing in a couple of unusual twists: the guy is a fairly potent mage instead of a total wimp, and one of the lovestruck girls can't speak as long as a ribbon tied in her hair seals her own fearsome abilities.
