Mashle Season 3: What To Expect From The Series

Mashle Season 3: What To Expect From The Series

As a seasoned gamer and avid anime fan, I can confidently say that Mashle: Magic and Muscles has been a breath of fresh air in the world of shonen comedy. While its Harry Potter parody initially gave it a pass for many, it’s quickly become a unique series with its own charm.


Key Takeaways

  • Second season of Mashle left off around the halfway point of the manga, setting up the next season.
  • Third season likely to cover Divine Visionary Selection Exam and Mash confronting his siblings.
  • Anime fans should catch up on Mashle now, as third season promises more action and plot twists.

Following two seasons, comprising 24 episodes that roughly cover 74 chapters from the manga, Mashle: Magic and Muscles has already left an indelible impression on the anime community. Although the Harry Potter spoof initially deterred some viewers from this series, it’s evolved into a distinctive shonen comedy with its own level of appeal over the past few years. The second season ended at approximately the midpoint of the manga, giving us a hint of what we can expect in the next season.

Based on the number of chapters per season, it seems the anime might cover both the “Tri-Magic-Athalon Divine Visionary Final Exam Arc” and the start of the “Eclipse Arc”. This suggests there could be a fourth season to complete the remaining parts of the “Eclipse Arc” in the anime adaptation. However, since no specific release date has been confirmed for Mashle’s third season, it’s impossible to accurately predict when the fourth and potentially final season will air.

Where Did The Show Leave Off?

Secret Family and Public Events

The latest segment in the show was titled the “Divine Visionary Selection Exam Arc.” This storyline centered around an annual event, reminiscent of the Tri-Wizard Tournament from “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire,” called the Divine Visionary Selection Exam. This event is organized by all three magical academies to find the most suitable candidate for the Divine Visionary Program. The Divine Visionaries are a satirical representation of the Ministry of Magic in the Harry Potter series, serving as the leaders within the Magical Bureaucracy.

Throughout this storyline, there was an abundance of world creation for both the realm encompassing Mashle and Easton Magic School. Thirteen wands, known as Master Canes, were unveiled, much like the Elder Wand from Harry Potter they can only be used by the most potent magic practitioners. Sadly for Mash, it was revealed that his father is none other than the main villain, Innocent Zero. Additionally, we gain insights into Innocent Zero’s group of offspring, who refer to themselves as the Devil’s Quintuplets. The season concludes with Mash just barely passing his written exam, allowing him to stay and learn at Easton Magic School, and continue participating in the Divine Visionary Selection Exam.

After successfully completing his test, Mash is now eligible for the Divine Visionary Competition. This contest requires him to accomplish various challenges, such as finding a secret key hidden in a forest, which is reminiscent of a task in “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.” In this initial challenge, he discovered the key inside an aquatic creature. The second phase involves a team-oriented round set within an underground castle. Each contestant is assigned to one of three teams upon entry, who must safeguard a crystal while attempting to seize crystals from other groups simultaneously. Mash’s team was victorious in this round, as the elimination would occur only if their team lost first, ensuring they continued in the Divine Visionary Selection Exam.

Here is how we see it going down:

Following Innocent Zero’s intervention, a decision was made to advance Dot, Lance, and Mash to the concluding test.

The final task shown is individual duels, where students aim to knock out or compel their opponents to yield. Mash faces Margarette Macaron, among other formidable magic users, and secures victory after victory through his unique non-magical abilities. However, this round is unable to be fully completed, or is unable to announce the winner, as Innocent Zero’s reign of terror is beginning to grow stronger. Mash and his friends start training and begin fighting against Innocent Zero’s children, aka Mash’s siblings, on their way to defend Mash against Innocent Zero.

It’s uncertain which of Mash’s siblings we’ll encounter by the end of the third season. There are six in total: Doom (First Son), Famin (Second Son), Epidem (Third Son), Delisaster (Fourth Son), Domina Blowelive (Fifth Son), and Mash, the youngest and sixth known child of Innocent Zero. Each has unique abilities, and interestingly, they share a trait similar to Mash. Given their incredible magical prowess, they will make formidable adversaries for Mash.

If you haven’t dived into the world of “Mashle” yet as an anime enthusiast, now is your chance to jump in! This comedy series, inspired by “Harry Potter”, has a deeper side that might not be immediately apparent, with humor similar to “One Punch Man” or “Mob Psycho”. The show offers unexpected turns, both comical and within its plot, making it worth multiple viewings. Since the anime closely follows the manga, catching up on both seasons would only make sense if you want to stay ahead of the anticipated third season.

You can watch the first and second seasons of Mashle on Crunchyroll.
