The Magic Council

Ardere Kasai wrote:I'm sorry but I've seen the entire anime and read all of the manga, and the MC actually does make laws in Fiore and runs things WAY more than the King. The king literally sits on his ass. I can point out to you specific decisions, laws, and regulations the MC has put in place, I can reference nothing the King has done. 

This is a direct, word for word quote from the wiki on the MC "As the main ruling body of the entire Magic world, the Council possesses almost utmost control over it, acting as a leading government of sort."

Maybe not non magical people. But to say the MC is not a governing body OF SORTS, is ignorant. 

And if bad stuff has been happening under the MC's rule, then it's been happening under the Monarchy's rule too, so everyone would hate them. We might have not referenced the King like we did the MC, but he has always existed. Therefore your reasoning to do away with the MC interferes with your reasoning to give more focus to the king. 

That's all I'm saying.

So we might as well redo both. Yeah?

More complicated stories, more interesting stories, can be told when we live in a more concrete world with a better defined setting.

The active existence and doing stuff of a magic council would work towards that. We can even justify the resurgance with the GK purge event. With the "corrupt," aspects cut out by the Garou Knights the Magic Council could make an IC return to relevance with a clean slate. It has too much potential to throw out the window.

If we just have a defined team of people to handle the MC NPCs and give them clear cut responcibilities like those of moderators I think we will see good things start to happen with them.

So we have the king as the top point perhaps. Then we have various ministries beneath him. One of these could be the new magic council and could literally be the 'Department of Magical affairs'.

We could then use NPCs for the heads of these departments so Minister of Magic, Minister of Transport, the King himself and then allow peoples PCs to become members of those departments.

We could do the same for other nations as well.
