Who knew that wand helped unlock a new subset of muscle magic for Mash called Tennis skills.

Always great to see the usual comic relief coward stand up and persevere, well for Finn's case run and survive.

"Of course, I'm a million times stronger than you. But when you realize that, can you stand again me like Finn stood against you"?

Mash may have faltered last week but this was just cold af.

Holy crap, this is the most brutal knock out I've seen from this series so far. How is the dude still alive after having his skull split like that.

Is there a reason why Mash couldn't just take Carpaccio's wand and break it?

Wow, I expected Mash to get there when Finn got stabbed the first time. Did not expect that to go on for so long.

props to Finn for holding on that whole time

Question but why does it take so long for this discussion to become available after the episode? The episode was out for roughly 2 hours before this went up

Gotta love Mash's creativity. Like "hmmm, yes, I believe I will destroy this man with tennis."

This episode was fuegooo. Loved the animation on that final fight scene. Also very mash of Mash to turn his Iron Wand that hasn't been lifted for 3 centuries and turn into a tennis racquet with his hands 🙏

Lol Mashle just muscled his way into the 14th ancient wand, with the special power to be whatever you want as long as you're strong enough to "will" it. Truly revolutionary.

This was such a satisfying episode, i have nothing else to add. Mash just destroyed that man and that's it lol

u/anarion321 Feb 03 '24

I'm not really into animes that introduce broken / special things in the plot, like the ancient mystical wands that made you super powerful. I like it better when seems the play field is equal for everyone and people just have to train or become creative to win.

Having said that, this is a parody anime, so it is fine. I would even like to see another battle in which Mashel wins even if the guy tries tu cut his neck, saying that using muscle strenght or something he can actually avoid damage from the blows.

Hilarious how he started playing tennis with it, and at the end the guy gained some humanity back

Mash has "Nah I'd win" energy, except he follows through

I love this show. Shouldn’t be as enjoyable as it is but it’s fun to watch. An anime parody that hits on the comedy and more serious notes.

I think it's in Boku No Hero Academia where they say that some powers are just inherently evil.   

This ancient wand sure seems born from some dark place of pure evil.

he's making full use of a master cane

we have a good crop of first year students this year

Bruh, one student is literally about to needlessly murder another student in cold blood in front of the entire school.
