A new anime series called MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES is coming to Crunchyroll! This series follows a boy named Mash Burnedead in a world of magic, wizards, and witches. However, Mash Burnedead has a secret: he cannot use magic.
MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES
The anime is based on the Shonen Jump manga of the same name written and illustrated by Hajime Komoto. MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES is an off-kilter, magical fantasy story that has captivated fans around the world with its absurd visual gags amidst its backdrop within a world of magic. This world is flipped on its head by Mash’s muscles and lack of magical powers.
In this story, the world is one of magic. In fact, everyone within this world can use magic in one way or another. In a deep, dark forest in this world of magic, there is a boy named Mash Burnedead who is single-mindedly working out. Mash has a secret: he can’t use magic. All he wanted was to live a quiet life with his family, but one day, people suddenly start trying to kill him. He then somehow finds himself enrolled in Magic School. There, he sets his sights on becoming a “Divine Visionary,” the elite of the elite. Will his ripped muscles work against the best and brightest of the wizarding world?
The series is animated and produced by A-1 Pictures (Lycoris Recoil; 86 EIGHTY-SIX; Sword Art Online) and directed by Tomonari Tanaka (Engage Kiss). Additional staff credits include series composition and screenplay by Yosuke Kuroda (My Hero Academia; Bastard!! Heavy Metal, Dark Fantasy), character design by Hisashi Higashijima, action direction by Takeshi Matsuda (Naruto Shippuden: The Will of Fire key animation) and Hiroaki Goda (Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone key animation), art direction by Yusa Ito (Sword Art Online the Movie -Progressive- Aria of a Starless Night), and music composed by Masaru Yokoyama (Your Lie in April, 2019’s Fruits Basket).
