Description
Rent Farrant discovered a magic book in his home library when he was a child. The book was left behind by his ancestor, the legendary great magician, and it contained all kinds of information about magic. Rent read the book and continued his magic training, and became proficient in all kinds of magic. Eventually, Rent grew up and came to the Magic Academy in the royal capital. He took the entrance exam, but the value that came out when measuring his magic power was, 「Zero magic power.」 Without understanding why, Rent was admitted to the lowest class, Class C. The students there are all failures. Sarah, even though she comes from a prestigious knight’s family, she was dropped into Class C because of her rebellious attitude towards the examiner. Diene, from a merchant family, was forced to enroll because she was told to look for a noble husband to make connections. Muno, from an orphanage, he can’t read and write letters. While taking classes with them, the principal of the Magic Academy notices Rent’s talent. 「The reason you were considered to have zero magic power was the measurement tool’s fault. Your magic power can’t be measured by modern magic. What you are using is the lost ancient magic.」 Rent, who is the last user of ancient magic, was dropped into the lowest class, Class C, but he decided to teach magic to his classmates. His classmates are considered failures by the standards of modern magic, but for Rent, they have plenty of room to grow.In order to get to Class A with all of his classmates, Rent begins his struggle.

My Thoughts on Eh, Everyone Can’t Use Ancient Magic!!??? ～A Fallen Noble Who Was Judged To Have Zero Magic Power Will Be Peerless In The School Life With The Strongest Magic～
Okay, let's dive into this title – "Eh, Everyone Can’t Use Ancient Magic!!??? ～A Fallen Noble Who Was Judged To Have Zero Magic Power Will Be Peerless In The School Life With The Strongest Magic～". It's quite a mouthful, isn't it? But, I suppose it does a decent job of laying out the basic premise. After spending some time with this web novel, here are my thoughts.
First Impressions
Honestly, the premise grabbed my attention. A fallen noble, deemed magically inept, who turns out to be secretly powerful? It's a classic underdog story setup, and I'm a sucker for those. The academy setting adds another layer of potential fun with the promise of school-life shenanigans and magical training.
What Works Well
The magic system seems to be a high point. There's clearly some thought put into it, and that's something I always appreciate. A well-developed magic system can really elevate a fantasy story, providing a solid foundation for the plot and character development. The action elements are also well-done, keeping me engaged and interested in seeing how the protagonist overcomes challenges.
Areas of Concern
The pacing felt a bit rushed, and the chapters themselves are rather short, which can make the overall experience feel somewhat disjointed. The characters can also feel a bit too familiar, bordering on cliché. While I don't mind familiar tropes, the novel doesn't always add enough originality to make them feel fresh. The predictability is also a factor. I often found myself anticipating plot points well in advance, which diminished the element of surprise.
Final Verdict
"Eh, Everyone Can’t Use Ancient Magic!!???" has potential. The magic system and action sequences are definite strengths. However, the pacing, predictable plot, and somewhat generic characters hold it back. If you're a die-hard fan of the "hidden power" trope and don't mind a bit of predictability, you might find some enjoyment here. But if you're looking for something truly groundbreaking and original, this might not be it. I'm sitting on the fence with this one. It's not terrible, but it could be so much more.
