What a great ending. No immediate season 3 in the database, but I’m sure we will get one. With the manga being finished and how well this season did I have no doubt will get another season. May take awhile to get it out, but I’ll definitely be there when season 3 premieres 🙂

Nice finale featuring a little bit of everything: beach episode shenanigans, Mash struggling with tests and him silencing haters with raw strength.

Overall, this second season ended up being way better than the first one. Jokes landed better and there was an improvement in both animation and direction. Not to mention OST accentuated each scene perfectly in my opinion. Those rap-based tracks being the aspect I'm gonna miss the most from this adaptation.

8/10 - Good bye, best OP of Winter. Now let's hope a third season gets announced soon.

It's it even an Anime without a Beach episode?

Overall it was definitely better than Season 1.
I have so much fun watching this weekly.

8/10

Can't wait for the next season.

I'm gonna miss this show! :3 So stupid at moments,but generally one of few that i was actually waiting for.
Loved the scene when he defended Lemon chan.
Btw what was that, medieval peasants xD
I think Lance was not himself i this ep, following MC like a secondary character, he even said he has no time for this.
Bye, Mash, come back soon.!!!

Strong finish to what has been a great season filled with highs and laughter!

Right from the Op onwards, which is certainly going to go down as one of the finest in the medium of all-time, this has been a treat to watch. I didn't realise until now though, but there is a panel from the theme that gives me so much Bleach hype vibes, it's insane how creative the Staff were with this one and they definitely knew how to please us as well. On Creepy Nuts side? As usual, I can't wait to see more of their songs featured in anime...



On to the finale now, for real xD. The standing ovation from the last episode for Mash when taking on the eerie monster was great emotion, and they followed it up here with his friends taking a blow to their reputations for him, he's really lucky to have found his circle. And hey, he managed to pass his exams too so all is well that ends well. Thankfully, the beach trip wasn't signifying a menace. Seeing the President there and justifying with Beach = Summer was hilarious, deadpan comedy is gold.

Season 3 better be comin' because this is only getting better!

The end of Mashle season 2, and what a ride its been from start to finish. Throughout we have had many ups and downs with amazing ation along with solid animation and and a very enjoyable cast of characters.

The beach part of the episode was a nice contrast to all the action finally having some nice peace and quiet away from the battles. Along with Mash needing to study for the upcoming exams. Him freaking out over studying was quite funny.

Though this wasn't the best episode of the season and it kinda felt like a lack luster end to leave off on it was still solid and we had some nice moments.

Huh... so in their world, a 49 or 50 out of 100 is "safe"...

Here in our world... anything below 70 out of 100 is pretty much a "failed".

(I also heard some Universities are removing the "A, B, C" grading system and just going with "Pass and Fail" system)

.

BTW... Lemon's "speech" reminds me of "Boku no Hero" speech when ppls blame Deku about the villains and Deku was going into the Academy.

Similar thing happening here, cause ppls wants to blame someone for the bad things that's happening, and it's easy to blame the one that everyone was already discriminating on, the magicless.

All in all, a banger of a season. Even better than the first.

Animation is excellent, especially in the fight scenes, so many hilarious moments, and almost every character is solidly written and interesting.

Much looking forward to Season 3. It's been one of the most fun shows of the Winter, 2024 season.

So Mash still managed to barely pass his exams lol, and even though they wanted his ass for having no power he managed to show them how valuable physical strength his, now it's time for him to pass the high tier exam, otherwise they're all doomed

The season leaning more into the generic Shounen battle elements hurt it for me, though of course S1 wasn't particularly special to start with. Probably a 4/10

Rather disappointing follow up to the first season, that was a great parody. Instead of jokes, we got almost constant fights. Almost all of the supporting characters got sidelined. Basically, it's starting to turn in to some generic shounen. I didn't watch S1 because it was a great action show, I watched it because it was making fun of such shows, but it looks like it decided to become one. I couldn't wait for season 2 to come, but after watching it, I don't know if I will bother checking out season 3 if it comes out, since the show is morphing in to Narubleachtale Z.

I just noticed, in this season, they broke the 4th wall multiple times, something that I don't remember happening in the previous one, Lemon calling the mob nameless characters and like two episodes ago Rhyo said something about the narrator. Fully embracing the parody genre almost ala Gintama. Anyway, as usual it's very entertaining. Hope it gets a sequel soon.

And so we end with beach antics, studying for tests, and confronting an angry mob.

You know, if I'm being honest, my first reaction as someone watching this blind when I realized this wasn't gonna be the final season of this was extreme annoyance. In my mind there was no real reason why the story needed to continue past the Innocent Zero battle. Just have Mash beat him and save the world right now, I thought. Who'd care at that point if he wasn't the Divine Visionary? But no, we learn in this episode Innocent Zero has a fresh set of 5 new goons to take down in what will I strongly assume be the final battle next season. Bleh.

That aside this show on the whole remains what I always considered it. A mildly amusing(occasionally more than that) Harry Potter parody done manga/anime-style. I did find it humorous in my mind to compare how this episode handled the angry mob wanting the special outcast child compared to another shonen series I won't mention by name. And it was nice to see Wahlberg's powers even if Dumbledore by plot rules must lose. But yeah, 7/10 and I'll watch the final season. I just wish it had been this one.


Yeah this is pretty much my reaction to the last 3 EPs. It went from being funny, fresh and fast paced to repetitive and too serious. Just to end with an EP which I would translate with "no no, it's peace and joy". I don't need another season of that villain, I don't need another "oh we're so dark and serous" part, which stretches the fights forever.

The other problem is: he already got everything he wanted: he is outed and now accepted as non magician. Show's closed.

Before those I was pretty ok with the show. Even though the never ending torture was really unnecessary, the enemies in the tournament arc were interesting. But now I'm really fed up with it.

Solid mini beach episode segment, a solid mini segment on the written portion that I was wondering when it would happen, and an even better dive into the world building post Academy attack. Overall, not too bad an ending episode. Can't wait for the next season!

After all of the madness seen before, a beach episode as the season finale? Just kidding (well, not totally). And to finish this, a extremely mad episode (a weird version of break the watermelon, the headmaster on the beach too, two familiar faces from season 1 returning after a long time, Mash himself running away from study and exams in a unexpected out of character moment, the angry mob, Lemon actually doing something useful, Dot Barrett pretending to be his agent and making the situation worse)

But once again it was a season not less entertaining than 1, even for someone like me who never had too much interest in the (spoofed) source material. 8/10, will return for more if announced also thanks to italian dub.

This season was at least somewhat better, but they're relatively feel the same. Ik comedy is a hit or miss but I found some being a hit and some a miss and the storyline abt Mash's true father did excite me up. I'll return for the 3rd season whenever that comes out thanks to the improvement on the storyline.

8/10

There was more humour in this episode than the last four or five episodes combined, and it just so happens it's also better than the aforementioned episodes too, which shows you what this series can do when it properly capitalises on its strong suits. Lemon's declaration of faith, and subsequent vow to share Mash's punishment, was also an appreciably endearing gesture. Even the camaraderie with Mash's friends in helping him study there did more for their characters than most of the rest of the season did, and this was in an episode that barely took itself even half as seriously as all the "high-stakes" battles that went on before this.

Unfortunately, a majority of this season was wasted on the most formulaic battle shounen narrative elements you could conceive of, and neither the plot nor the combat had any real intrigue because of the predictability of it. Beyond that, many of the side characters got relegated to nothing more than glorified cheerleader duty, or they were made caricatures of themselves that only had a single defining trait (which were present before, but never overly prominent) to broadcast.
