Mashle: Magic and Muscles

At first glance, you think it's another anime where you have to defeat someone, but after watching the first episodes, you understand that it's something new.

In summary, it's about a boy who has no magical abilities, but instead he is very strong. The protagonist is not very smart (nicely expressed) and is forced to go to a magic school to become the best mage, without magic skills.

The genre is comedy, adventure and fantasy. The jokes are like in "Onepunchman". The story is not perfect and is often silly but it fits the story quite well.

I advise you to watch it if you like "Onepunchman" or "Mob psycho 100".

Pros:

• A lot of good action
• Very clean, no sexual content at all

Cons:

• Jokes were overly repeated and not very funny to begin with
• Overly copies Harry Potter, doesn't bring a lot of new material but does have some.

• Character personality is fairly poor and quickly felt predictable. I didn't find myself very excited for any one individual to come on screen.

• Every fight would be heavily interspersed with talking and flash backs which made things slow

Overall I was just a little bored and found myself finishing more for the sake of checking off a box and finishing what I started than anything else. If you don't mind the heavy copying of Harry Potter and aren't too critical you may enjoy this one.

The series follows Mash Burnedead, a young boy who possesses no magical abilities in a world where magic is everything. Despite this, Mash dreams of attending Magic High School, where he can learn to become a Wizard.

The anime is a fun and lighthearted take on the shonen genre. Mash is a lovable protagonist who is always eager to fight for what he believes in. He is also incredibly strong, which makes for some exciting fight scenes. The supporting cast is also enjoyable, with characters like Lance, Dot, and Merle providing plenty of laughs.

The animation in Mashle: Magic and Muscles is well-done, with fluid fight scenes and detailed character designs. The music is also catchy and upbeat. Overall, the anime is a fun and enjoyable watch that is sure to please fans of the shonen genre.

However, the anime does have some flaws. The pacing can be a bit slow at times, and the story can be predictable. Additionally, some of the jokes fall flat.

Overall, Mashle: Magic and Muscles is a 7/10 anime. It is a fun and lighthearted show with a likable protagonist and some exciting fight scenes. However, the pacing can be slow at times, and the story can be predictable.

Here are some pros and cons of the anime:

Pros:

Fun and lighthearted shonen anime

Lovable protagonist

Exciting fight scenes

Well-done animation

Catchy music

Cons:

Pacing can be slow at times

Overall, Mashle: Magic and Muscles is a solid anime that is sure to please fans of the shonen genre. If you are looking for a fun and lighthearted show with a bit of action, then I would recommend checking it out.

This anime is funny and entertaining and basically a parade of Harry Potter if it was an anime. From Quidditch to Draco Malfoy, it's basically mocking the entire magic school genre, with a main character with no magic, but instead of being an angsty, poor unfortunate outcast, he's a musclehead whose so dense he doesn't realise half the things happening around him, and the scenarios he ends up in because of it are simple hilarious.

I'd recommend it, purely on its comedy chops, but the animation and voice acting are nothing to sneeze at either. I've only watched the dub, but the voice acting is also solid.

I hope we get a 2nd season. I had a blast.

Parody anime has a mixed bag of results. Tropes from other anime or live-action settings are parodied, but to truly stand out, a work of humor must constantly be spot-on; sadly, this one fell short consistently. It is plainly a spoof of magic schools such as Hogwarts, but in most cases, it just doesn't work that well. You might think I'm "taking a parody anime too seriously," but there wasn't much to enjoy when the majority of the characters were the biggest jerks with no real depth.

I recently received a box of cream puffs, so if this animation was meant to be a commercial, it was a success.

Mashle's second season was a letdown, despite not really being that different from the first. But that's the issue. Mashle was intended to be a parody of fantasy themes, particularly those related to Harry Potter, but it stumbled into the same pitfall that most parodies do. Rather than deliberately mocking the clichés seen in fantasy literature, it exaggerates them to cover up the shoddy writing.
