Extra! Extra! Seireitei is now Mahoutokoro!
You read that correctly - Seireitei University has now been renamed Mahoutokoro University. One of our moderators was exploring Pottermore this evening and discovered that there is actually a canon Japanese school, by name of Mahoutokoro!
The only information we are given about the school can be found in the description of Cherry as a Wand Wood:
This very rare wand wood creates a wand of strange power, most highly prized by the wizarding students of the school of Mahoutokoro in Japan, where those who own cherry wands have special prestige.
Fortunately, since this is all we know, all we have changed about Seireitei is the name. The housing groups, location, and history all remain the same, we just have a new tag and forum titles to reflect this.
We suggest editing your posts where you may have mentioned Seireitei, though we do apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. We also would appreciate if you would let us know if you see any link errors or wording errors due to this new change!
We realize this is sudden and hope you'll enjoy the new name. This means the Vault is now home to four canon schools instead of just three - and to my knowledge, we are now the only RPG to offer Mahoutokoro as an option - all without having to change much on our board! :)
Enjoy, and Happy Role Playing!
