I don't find it "laugh out loud" funny but it's humor is entertaining enough to keep me coming back every week.

Oh, come on. Different people, different sense of humor. Your sense of humor is too high, i guess

Its strictly below OPM in comedic jokes and timing, and I only found OPM mildly funny.

It's not a cinematic masterpiece, but when you want to watch a silly show to ease your mind, this one is a really good option

I do think most of the jokes worked better in the manga but it was still funny

Personally I don't think I even laughed once throughout the whole show, but many people apparently find it pretty funny.

Well, I enjoyed it. Different strokes for different blokes, I suppose.

Or you're just part of the usual Selective trash that rants on and on about series trying to make them sound horrible while thinking you can do a better job yet don't have the funds Or skills to start producing a series of your own which in your mind will be perfect but in reality that's a far cry
To sum it up move along with your life and don't follow the series ain't rocket science we dealing with here
this is why I always watch a series first and then come to see review and comments of folks like you to humor me a bit

Halfway through and I just don't get it. The jokes are terrible and the timing is awful. All the characters are practically the same, just one note and boring. Mash is also incredibly unfunny.

It's a shame. This is such a cool concept. If they went the way of HP + One Punch Man, I think this would have really worked.

Anyone else feel the same?

Published for 3 years, sold over 100k copies per volume and got a anime by A1 with 2 seasons already, clearly the majority disagree with you, and btw comedy is subjective so it's probably just not for you.

I thought it was funny in the same way OPM failed because I was bored watching that, but enjoyed this.

First few episodes i found them endearing and cute but after a while it just got way too repetitive and cringe with the punchlines

It's a terrible series. Most of the comedy is just outdated with Shounen Jump tropes. Ofcrouse, there will be people here say they find it funny but you're not alone on this.

It’s not true work, just the tried and tested cash-cow devoured by unsuspecting youths whom have no exposure to real fiction. You surely could not have had expected anything serious from a salubrious protagonist with zero aspiration but unlimited power? It’s not even something as consequence of his circumstantial tragedy of wielding a bottomless power —that’ll be One Punch Man— as for all he knew— he knew nothing but himself and therefore an infinite pool of potential. To say that you legitimately enjoy this pandering of 11-year-olds is lying to yourself as justification for all the time you invested. As long as children are the mainstream market, anime can never reach the level of western movies or traditional literature, just an objective truth with some exceptions.

You may not be wrong. I found the humour dry. It's not everybody's cup of tea but I liked it. It's definitely not as bad as you describe it though.

but wasn’t it just subverted expectation and cream-puffs?

well I don't think is funny 100% of the time, but the way it doesn't take itself seriously is amazing, it constantly breaks any seriousness or literally anything that would make sense in the plot line, I agree the characters are kinda plain tho

Well it's still HP + OPM

Actually I never watched it for the comedy, I was more into the concept and the pacing. It's an anime which is quite easy to get into.
Yet can't deny your claim as 2nd half felt quite bland to me.

I didn’t think I would like gag humor anime but gave this a shot and I love it. I enjoy how silly it is… and Mash is endearing.

Not everyone has the same sense of humor and that’s okay.

The first episodes of the show were quite funny in my opinion and the One-punch man X Harry potter concept was interesting.
Unfortunately, it quickly became bland and uninspiring.

Well, I found several nice jokes. When they tried to put to sleep mandragora, but with Mash forget about sleeping, it became giant and more angry, I found it hilarious:


Second joke I liked is with Keisokumo. Chiharu did great job voicing it: "Uso daro!" Too bad its appearance was only once and too brief. Her voice acting made me to laugh:


Aside from these two cases everything else I found as so so, maybe because I watched too many comedy anime and it's harder to make me laugh.

Same here, 90% of the jokes just don't work for me, but unfortunately that's a big part of the show.

It's funnier than Spy x Family and Gintama, that's for sure.

I don't understand you. If this anime was just a parody of Harry Potter and One-Punch Man, it would be bad.
But Hajime Komoto went beyond the boundaries from the beginning and made one of the best comedy manga ever. Mashle has one of the best jokes I know, even though it hasn't appeared in the anime yet.

dude still hasn't learned the lesson that comedy is subjective.
literal children have already learned that lesson.

bet you also judge books by their cover and generalize people based on the actions of individuals in your surrounding.

Mashle is not your Death Note or FMA, it is from the same family as Gintama or Sakamoto.
Curb your expectations.

It is a PG-13 show, aimed at younger people.
Our palette is refined after years of watching anime, we have simply matured out of it.
But while some have retained open-mindedness and can suspend disbelief for the sake of simple entertainment,
some like you too negative and toxic to enjoy it on your own. You are simply not the target audience anymore.

I recommend quitting watching anime, go do some other hobby and after a couple of years once you have matured in the Correct direction, you may return and try again.
Because as of now, this is the kind of person you are going to be for the rest of your anime watching career.
Tomorrow you will even fall out of love with your most favorite shows.
it's not worth it, you're burned out, go literally touch some grass in the most polite sense.

Goes to Show that making an Action/Comedy beeing funny and cool at the same time isn't an easy task.
