The upcoming second season of Mashle: Magic and Muscles has received a small promotional/info dump, which includes a teaser trailer and a key visual for its “The Divine Visionary Candidate Exam Arc.”
The info part of the equation comes in the form of new cast members who will debut with the new arc and opening song details (both are previewed in the trailer). The former includes:
• Junichi Suwabe as Ryoh Grantz
• Yuuki Ono as Orter Mádl
• Nobunaga Shimazaki as Kaido Gehenna
• Kishou Taniyama as Renatus Revol
• Tomori Kusunoki as Tsurara Halestone
• Saori Hayami as Sophina Biblia
• Yuuki Kaji as Rayne Ames
The opening song for Mashle Season 2 will be performed by Creepy Nuts. Its title is “Bling-Bang-Bang-Born.”
There are also some changes to the staff list. Among them is the addition of Kento Toya (Sword Art Online the Movie -Progressive- Scherzo of Deep Night character designer) as one of the sub-character designers and the addition of Ryouta Saitou as co-action director (replacing Hiroaki Gouda)
Mashle‘s first season began airing in Japan in April and ran for 12 episodes. The anime is based on the Shueisha-published manga by Hajime Komoto.
Viz Media describes the manga as:
Mash just wants to live in peace with his father in the forest. But the only way he’ll ever be accepted in the magic realm is by attending magic school and becoming a Divine Visionary—an exceptional student revered as one the chosen. But without an ounce of magic to his name, Mash will have to punch his way to the top spot.
The Mashle manga began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2020 and ended in July of this year. It has been collected into 18 tankoubon volumes.
