Mash is a funny main character, he looks like so passive and calm in all the episode. He does all the things with an extreme facility. The introdiction of new characters and the scenes with the main director was so entertaining. Great episode to be honest.

Okay so I haven't laughed this hard in quite some time, definitely one of the highlights so far.

I think this show will however be very polarizing in nature as if you do not like the humour I could see that it would be a very dull show, as they say Humour is Subjective, in my case I nearly died laughing, other will probably look and go why is it funny?

Lmao, chad af main character! Says to the headmaster, the strongest guy in the school "oh yeah, if I had to fight you I'd just beat the shit outta you with my fist." We need more badasses like my boy mushroom head in animes. What a great anime so far.

I like the serious moments but the comedy is pretty hit or miss for me, feels like it could get repetitive. As soon as I saw the maze I assumed he would either jump and walk on top of it or bash through it. I'm curious how they are going to excuse him not flunking out the first semester given he can't do any magic they ask him to do.

Cool with the academy exam we're starting to see and know the important side characters especially Lemon right now... but Mash is as tough as always destroying everything to succeed, that's definitely funny xD

Mash literally has the strength of Saitama, the personality of Escanor and the Stoicism of Ayanokouji, it is impossible to disappoint.

second episode and I still don't really think this is a funny show. the gimmick just isn't really funny. yelling sentences doesn't make them funny. emotionless stoic MC doing incredible strong things everyone else is astonished by, yet still having no magical power and thus being unremarkable. people screaming as he does strong stuff. haha ._. he's in the magic academy now without magic power. I wonder how long that's going to actually last for. I don't think cum lord - I mean laude - would actually expose his douchebag schemes by exclaiming them in front of the entire crowd of students - I mean, that's just too stupid, right? the only thing I liked about this episode, and the whole show so far really, is when MC says to his teacher "God is dead" seemingly entirely out of the blue when he's getting scolded?!?!? where did that come from?!?! that was a totally different conversation topic!! anyway, it's likely I'll drop this one. it's probably meant for 9 year old boys anyway

The gag humor was pretty good in this episode. When Lemon (what a name) kept getting caught in those traps that look on Mash's face... lol. I do like how blunt Mash is including telling the head guy that he'd fight him if need be.

I remember hearing the riddle somewhere and the answer was a human being. Lemon seems very goofy and silly. I like the character designs so far in the show, they stand out.

I'm liking the soundtrack so far these past 2 episodes.

When I first heard the premise for this show I was SURE that he was gonna lie and say his super strength is because of his magic. It just feels like the obvious solution for hiding the fact he can't do magic but maybe strength enhancing magic doesn't exist in this world?

I know where Mash got Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy out of nowhere. That was really unpredictable.
in the first episode, God rewards chosen mages with their special marks and the ability to use magic at birth. The more marks a mage has the more powerful they are. For someone like Mash, who was born without a mark at all, it's easy for him to say, "God is dead", because God didn't give him a mark.

It seems everything on this show is a Harry Potter reference.

The labyrinth exam, the Sphinx riddle, teleportation using green flames, the bully profressor with the long-bowl hair cut, the powerful old man headmaster, even Mash's hair and scar looks similar to Harry's...

You know the author read the books when he included the Sphinx riddle lol



Harry Potter?
Mash's hairstyle is very common in anime though.. Even mob has that style

The concept of a human who was born in a magical world where he must survive only with his strength is interesting but they are already seeing the plot in a warm way, it will go up and down at the moment, let's wait until the last chapter of the season and the manga is in second place in Weekly Shônen Jump Ranking

I feel like they're trying to replicate the simplistic humor of One Punch Man and Mob Psycho, but they only have the half-baked personality of Saitama and Mob without any of the extra elements that they have.

Finally we have Lemon introduced (voiced by the lovely Ueda 'Ueshama' Reina). Followed the manga since its 1st chapter and somehow the anime is kind of bringing in the same excitement as when I read each new chapter. Looking forward to how A-1 Pictures will animate the more intricate battles in the coming episodes!

This episode was also very fun. Mashle is a bit dumb but also realistic and I like that about him. I was worried he wouldn't pass the test but he actually did, so I'm glad. (And else the anime would be over :)

The way that Mash, who I still like how he eats away at his favourite cream puffs every now and then, had the great timing to say "God is dead", prompting me to laugh out loud! XD

Despite that, the overall humour was a bit weaker than the first episode, but it was still good overall. Lemon is a cute addition to the show and although she failed badly at stopping Mash from succeeding in the maze part of the exams, at least he was kind enough to throttle the Sphinx boss in the face and to carry her out of the maze by punching his way one hedgerow at a time. An easy way to make a girl fall for you and Lemon is no exception to this!

I'm sure that Mash will eventually face a challenging encounter sooner or later, but for now, I'll enjoy seeing his muscles do the talking and putting many jealous magicians in their place. =P
