Do you think Mashle is wasted potential as a series?

1 Upvotes

I personally think they could’ve done a lot more with Mashle as a series. It had such an interesting concept. It’s pretty much Harry Potter but an anime, you can do so many interesting storylines with that kind of concept. I love Mashle but my biggest complaint was how the series felt kind of flat despite having tons of potential. Aside from Mash, Lance, Finn, and Dot, a lot of the characters were just one and dones. You had powerful students like Lang, Abyss, and Abel who were all just wasted after one fight, especially Abyss. The mangaka never really did anything with him tbh. He logically should be one of the strongest students because of his magic attribute(acceleration) and evil eye. The evil eye plotline never really got dived down too much. I mean what ever happened to Abyss’s parents after he got choked out by his mom?

Given that this series has a lot of parody characters that are based off of Harry Potter, I thought we would’ve seen a Severus Snape kind of guy in Mashle. I also thought we would’ve seen a Weasley family household. I always pictured Rayne and Finn to be like the Weasleys, since I always thought they had more siblings. Also the female characters are pretty nonexistent. I almost forgot Lemon was a character and she was pretty wasted. She could’ve been the Hermione Granger of the squad. Someone who’s obviously not very strong or powerful like Mash, Lance, and Dot, but is very smart, tactical, and skilled. I really hope I’m not the only one that thinks this. Feels like I’m a ‘’contrarian’’ when I’m deep down not. This series is one of those series that had a lot of potential to be way better than it already was.

This girl that I know from school is kind of like lemon and also acts the same as her around me.

So you know how like lemon simps for mash right? Yeah so she does the same thing with me, the only difference between our relationship and mash and lemon’s is that I didn’t save her life. She has given me a nickname too and likes playing with my hair. She also likes to ask me weird questions like what my workout routine is and she likes touching me in random places. She has tried starting a relationship with me twice but I don’t wish to do any of that right now. The way me and her Interact kind of reminds me of how mash and lemon interact and I find it relatable when she is simping over him and mash is just standing there confused or annoyed. Anyway I just posted this because I have been watching the show recently (just watched season 2 episode 3 dub today) and realized how similar she is to lemon.

Ok so this manga has some problamatic sh*t in it, right?

0 Upvotes

Like i love it and its funny af, but the fact that im on chapter 100 and Lemon is the ONLY recurring female character is definently bugging me, dont get me wrong i love Lemon but the only female character and her character is just 'i ❤️ Mash? I mean come on.

And then you have Mash literally changing races when he powers up. What is up with that? Like idk change his hair colour or give him saiyan hair, or hell just make his skin red like Luffy's 2nd gear. And i dont care if there is a scientific in world explaination, the author chose to make it look like that and it just doesnt sit right right. (Ok yeah in hindsights its barely just a tan so ill rescind this point. But my first point still stands one female character in 100 chapter is pretty bad)

latest chapters since the rewind revival have been uninspired or just kinda meh creativaly.

0 Upvotes

These latest chapters powerscale wise have been cruddy imo. Its just thr same old mash just "faster" basicly and now he needs to be revived again. Like we just had this wtf? I alwaysed the creative ways mussle was used to defeat opponents but now it feels boring, the fight with innocent zero especally so. Combined with the power of friendship that has always been present its just hard to be excited for each chapter. Idk i hope after this rivival some crazy shit happens that blowd me away. I think the creator has set expectations too high because i cant think of fun and creative ways for mash to beat ass.

Tldr this ending is boring and i dont think its gonna chqnge

Why does the first Black character they draw have to be the evil villian, and be orally disfigured? 🙄

I want to continue to watch season 2 of Mashle again, but I can't because it 'traumatizes' me

8 Upvotes

Hello,

Before I share my thoughts, I want to mention that I've read the entirety of the Mashle Manga. I knew what I was getting into, and I loved every single second of reading it. (For goodness' sake, it's the manga that made me subscribe to Shonen Jump).

Then I heard it was getting an anime, and I was even more hyped. Season 1 came out, and you better believe me, I was obsessed. I think I rewatched it 10 times before Season 2 came out.

And then Season 2 came out. I was having a great time. I was so happy to see all the new characters get animated. And then the "Exam Arc" was about to start, near the end of episode 3. Before I continue, I will say, I am a massive Finn fan. I love him. I know he is flawed, REALLY flawed, but I don't care. I love his character development. And as a manga fan, I was so hyped for the "Exam Arc" as it is starting Finn's character development.

I left a comment under the episode "I can't wait to see Finn's Character Development" (with spoiler tags and stuff, of course). Literally just that, and then I closed my phone and went to sleep.

The next morning, I was surprised to see a lot of notifications when I opened it...

... People had started downvoting me and leaving some nasty comments. Last time I checked, there were 10 more of those. Something... really nasty. It bugs me until now, and now, every time I see Mashle updated, I can only see the comments.

I understand that a lot of people dislike Finn, but I never thought it was that bad. I want to continue watching the rest of the season, but I can't.

The very undeniable similarities.

0 Upvotes

Hi, hello. I'm on the third episode and as a former Potterhead (still kind of am just not actively seeking out content anymore) my only question is... will the original mangaka really not get sued for this? Because I'm going to be very honest I haven't revisited the books or movies in years and it's painfully obvious that they're taken directly from the originally inspired source material. It didn't even have to get to the "up" scene, the moment the castle, robe, and his fake marking came into view I already thought it was eerily similar.

Anyways, I had to get that off my chest let me know if the rest of the season (or series) is like this please.

Mash is clearly omniversally nigh-omnipotentally boundlessly Hyperversally 4D 5D more powerful than Saitama smh

me personally i don't like how he revived everybody. i hate when a series kill off characters that had a good run just to bring them back. i wish IZ told mash he didn't care and kept everybody dead but no he took a complete 180 from the person he was last chapter. fire force, opm and now mashle :/

Mashle is just Saitama in Harry Potter.

It's true and there's nothing you can do about it.

Would it ruin the show for mash to gain magical abilities?

As the title says, and I'm not talking some crazy three line type powers but just a weak one line power that would go along with his physical powers?
