Mashle: Magic and Muscles is coming in 2023
In the 31st issue of Weekly Shonen Jump Magazine, the anime adaptation of Hajime Komoto's comic fantasy manga Mashle: Magic and Muscles was officially announced. Additionally, it has now been revealed that the anime will premiere in 2023.
Komoto's manga has been serialized in Shueisha Publishing's Weekly Shonen Jump since January 2020 and has since been collected into 11 volumes. The total circulation of the volumes exceeds 3 million copies. On July 4th, the 12th volume of the manga will be released.
The story follows a boy named Mash, who enrolls at a magic academy. The only problem is that Mash has no magical abilities whatsoever—a fact the wizards around him must not discover. But Mash has trained hard and possesses incredible physical strength, allowing him to easily pass himself off as a real wizard.
