Aniplex announced on Monday a television anime adaptation of Hajime Koumoto's Mashle (Mashle: Magic & Muscles). The company also opened an official website revealing a teaser visual (pictured) and an announcement video. The anime is scheduled to premiere in 2023.

Koumoto began serializing the action comedy manga in Weekly Shounen Jump magazine in January 2020. Shueisha shipped the 12th volume on July 4. Mashle has a cumulative 3 million copies of its compiled volumes worldwide.

VIZ Media licensed the manga in English in October 2020. The sixth volume was released on May 17 and the seventh volume is scheduled to ship on July 19. Mashle is also simulpublished on the MANGA Plus website.

Synopsis
To everyone else in his magic-dominated world, the young and powerless Mash Burnedead is a threat to the gene pool and must be purged. Living secretly in the forest, he spends every day training his body, building muscles strong enough to compete with magic itself! However, upon having his identity exposed and his peaceful life threatened, Mash begins his journey to becoming a "Divine Visionary," a role so powerful that society would have no choice but to accept his existence.

And so, in order to maintain his peaceful life, the magicless Mash enrolls in the prestigious Easton Magic Academy, competing against the children of some of the most powerful and elite in the realm. Lacking the very skill needed to survive at Easton, magic, Mash appears to already be at a disadvantage to his fellow classmates. In order to achieve his goals, Mash will have to fight his way through every trial using his fists alone, overcoming magic with muscles, all for the illustrious title of Divine Visionary!

Should be fun, but I already dread all the "This is ripping off One-Punch Man!" comments.

This is just the generic "oh I have a special power better than everyone else" only it's trying to be coy about it. Dull.

He looks badass. Let's hope the animation, voices, direction, etc is great.

Of course, he is an amazing guy! When he trains in gym, he looks so cool!

I like him already!

To anyone curious on who is going to animate it, we're probably gonna have to wait until Jump Festa

I think it will be MAPPA. They always make such great things!

Haha, I was actually waiting for the anime adaption because I'm not in a mood to read this manga.

Oh, that’s cool. I read some of the manga and it was pretty good :)

Ooh this is gonna be one funny anime with some serious stuff too.
Might not be for everyone since it has weird facial expressions quite often but still funny though.

It's like a crappier OPM but he fights other Harry Potter kids with his muscles.

Do you want to know what it's like to try to make an anime like one punch man, but more boring? watch this

This only applies for S1 but yeah basically. All these anime announcements have been pretty mediocre so far.
