You're damn right
Basically a good version of Mashle, mixed with Kaijuu 8 (the part that the MC is trying to reach the prodigy childhood friend)

Sounds more like you just went into Mashle with the wrong expectations.

I'm the complete opposite. The entire time I was thinking "Mashle did it better". This show just takes itself too seriously.

@Yosakusan Thats where you forgot to use your brain. That these 2 shows literally have different main genre. Like, are another action animes all funny and laugh just like Mashle too? Nah

@AyemRivaille
Then I guess the OP and everyone else in this discussion also forgot to use their brain. The topic of this discussion is leterally "This is what I wanted Mashle to be". I'm simply responding to that. I'm not the one that started comparing the 2 shows.

This is Mashle but worse. Another boring "Im so OP and I will help everyone, even bad people deserve help!" MC. Im tired of this trope.

You are going to be so so disappointed!! While Mashle is much lighter in tone, I dare say its the more logical one too compared to this one. Its story is typical chinese manhua type (in reverse!!) or better say beta japanese protaganist.
Tokyo ghoul's 1st ,2nd ,3rd and 4th season were a big mistake of Pierrot!!!!!

Mashle and this are completely different shows. Saying this feels meaningless to me. Yes, the plot may look similar, but that's like comparing the Bible to The Life of Brian. One is a parody, the other takes itself seriously.

Seriously man, Mashle disappointed me after all the hype. This seems really promising, glad to see we have at least 1 good action anime this season.
Gachiakuta is the greatest manga of all time

How can you be remotely hyped for a story that was told countless time already ?

The same trope, the same lazy writing, same 1 dimensional characters..

Even Mashle had redeeming qualities.

This totally exceeded my expectations. I know it's kind of generic, but it's generic done right, and I really enjoyed it.

funny enough, I consider this to be more like Black Clover but way better.

Dude has no magic - check
Dude's in a magic academy - check

Dude is OP but not relying on any power but his own - no check. This is where black clover failed.

Mashle was a gag anime.


This is solid. MC is likable as well.

And Blue Exorcist is better than both (though, they don't use wands in Blue Exorcist, and the main character isn't OP).

That's what I said just from seeing the opening of Reign of the Seven Spellblades from last summer. This one just makes me think it wanted to be Mashle.

@dragynfaerie Mashle is a full on comedy though, you can't take it seriously, plus the animation is not as good. Wistoria also goes with the classic trope of "Saving the pricess", which is kinda rare in this days and ages.
