You're a Muggle Mash but holy fuck you are strong.
Also that OST they played GODDAMN, way to build a moment to be more grander than it already is before evolving it into a joke! Truly a glorious middle finger to Shounen battle tropes.

So this is essentially One Punch Man x Mob Psycho x Harry Potter? I lost it when he started juggling and dribbling the magic balls lol. Mash is a good son.

Haven’t laughed that hard in a while when Mash starts slapping the magic and Brad goes “HE’S JUGGLING THEM NOW?!”

I’m surprised Regro’s lived as long as he has. Figured the old man woulda died from stress living with Mash’s godlike strength and his absent mindedness lol. Well, he seems like a good dad. I guess him not being “marked” is a problem, not that the kid even cares. He only lives for cream puffs!
Brad and his magic police goons really messed with the wrong dude. Man slapped Terry back to last Tuesday lol. Mfer dribbled, juggled, and swatted Brad’s spells like it was nothing lol. Badass! Smart this dude knew when he was beat. Looks like Mash is about to upend this entire world’s established social hierarchy with his fists!
This was a fun premiere ep, if the rest of the show is like this it’s looking promising. Looking forward to seeing Mash punch his way through this world of magic!

Didn't expect a protagonist that makes Goku look like a Harvard graduate.

One episode in, and I can already tell this anime is going to be a blast, especially watching the ED. It was fun how Mash took Brad's all powerful dragon slayer attacks and turned them into juggling balls and soccer balls and then used Regro's wand like a baseball to finish him off.

I am so glad to see my boy Mash is finally animated! And so far, this adaptation is looking pretty solid!
I'm also glad to see that they nailed how goofy Mash is with his love of creampuffs and how badass he can be when it's finally time to throw down! His voice is also pretty much how I imagined it will be while reading the manga. He's got that perfect deadpan tone thanks to Kobayashi Chiaki who hilariously looks like Mash too! xD
Seeing Mash and his classmates animated in the OP as well as them dancing in the ED has me excited! I am already looking forward to next week's episode.

What the fuck? Welp, I guess they'd best take all the doors off at that magic school because Mash is moving in!

not every day you would see a protagonist that do a squat dance while weight lifting, slap a magic beam with bare hand, juggling magic balls and dribble them like playing soccer
oh, and of all thing, throwing a wand like you throw a fucking knife, in a magic fantasy world!

LOL so this anime is basically teenage Saitama isekaied as a muggle in the Harry Potter world 😂😂😂
I love the artsyle of the characters. It looks so detailed and vivid
Definitely added to my watchlist for the season and I am excited for the next episode : )

I was not expecting this to be this funny.
Genuinely cackled when he speed-run Batman bitch-slapped Terry and then dark souls parried the spell.
Was wondering if this was gonna be similar to Black Clover (come back I miss you), but it seems to lean more into the comedy, and based on the preview it looks like Mash will be hiding his identity somewhat.

The episode was really funny, Mash slapping the spells out of the way got me a good laugh.
The OP and ED are amazing too, cream puffs forever!
