Mashle: In A World Of Wands, He Chose Weights

Have you ever had someone walk up to you and ask for an anime recommendation? Maybe they see you always focused on your device, binge watching anime, and out of the blue, they get interested. What is the first thing you think of when picking an anime for them? A gripping plot? Romance? Non-stop action or a well-developed character? There are so many things to consider. For me, it is the length of the anime and the plot. I want something that won’t overwhelm or bore them, and at the same time, something that'd keep them hooked from the beginning to the end. When it comes to non-anime fans, I am always very careful. You don’t want to scare them off with a 520-episode anime like Naruto, One Piece, or Bleach. Introducing someone to anime is just like teaching someone how to drive a car, you don’t start on an express road, you start slowly in a secluded place.
What is your go-to anime when someone asks for an anime recommendation? For me, it is Mashle. Mashle is one of the anime that brought me back to the anime world and made me an otaku again. I grew up watching Naruto and other old anime. However, it got to a point where I stopped watching anime completely. My memories are flawed and I don’t remember why I stopped, but it is probably because our TV got faulty, and I didn't have a cell phone at the time. I got back to watching anime in 2022 when a friend sent me Mashle. I got interested in it because it was just 12 episodes and the first one grabbed my attention.
Mashle is set in a world where everything revolves around magic—literally everything. People are treated based on the amount of magical power they have. Meaning, magic dictated power and status. In this world, there's a boy named Masle Burnedead who has no magical power. Imagine living in a world where you are different. Mashle lives with his adoptive grandfather who picked him up when he was a baby. Mashle’s grandfather raised him like he'd raise his kid. Despite not having a single drop of magical powers, Mashle works out everything and has trained his body to be machine-like. Mashle stays in the woods with his grandfather, working out and eating cream puffs. He knows if the world discovers his secrets (that he doesn't have magical powers), they'd come for him.
Soon enough, the world finds out about his secrets. Mashle is forced to attend Easton Magic Academy with the sole goal of becoming the Divine Visionary. How will someone without a single drop of magic thrive in a school for those with magic? How will Mashle Burnedead become a divine visionary despite not having magical powers? Mashle continues to work out, and one way or the other, he finds a way to survive in Easton Magic Academy.
Have you seen Mashle? What is your take on the anime? If you want to introduce a non-anime fan to the anime world, what is your go-to anime?
Thanks for reading.

Reminds me of one Korean movie I watched some years back. I’m sure it will be interesting how it all ends for Mashle.

Thank you. 🥰
This is one of my favourite anime 😍, the fact that he can make a name for himself in a world of magic with just his fist is a huge impact and achievement also a reminder to other magic users that even hardwork, resilient and dedication pays
Thank you for sharing @justfavour
I just finished the anime, it's great, although you can't help but compare some things to Harry Potter, the character of Mash, so sure of his strength, so incredibly strong with muscle and training in the best one punch style and how gentle and funny he is, makes him simply great.
A while ago, I started watching anime just to spend time with my daughter. Now I like it as much as she does. We haven't seen Mashle yet, but we'll look for it. Thanks for the spoiler-free review.
I was impressed after reading your article. Mashle I was impressed by the way this anime movie portrays a normal and physically strange boy socially and socially. Best wishes to you.
This is great
very creative
I haven’t seen mashle
But I heard it a very good anime
Once I’m done with assasination classroom and done rewatching AOT, I’ll start this anime.
Do you know the musician that made the anime song are known as CreepyNut

I remember finding this anime by chance, in the comments they said it was a kind of Saitama in the magical world, and it really does seem that way. Although it has some comical moments, it's serious at the right time. Without being that comical exaggeration of “one punch at a time”.
Wow, what an incredible post. I'd already seen the anime and thought it was crazy. The first time I saw it, it gave me Harry Potter vibes, but of course, it has so many different aspects, and Mashle, despite not having magic, has proven in the anime to be a person worth having. She's defeated many wizards, and with the appearance of her father, I still have many doubts.
Definitely a super anime.
