Mashle: Magic and Muscles - Mash changed the world. After being selected to be the next Divine Visionary...Mash rejected it. He didn't even reject it in person, he just sent a letter, requested Lance get it. It was a very Mash thing to do.
The rest of the chapter flashes forward to Mash's cream puff shop. Everyone slowly comes into the shop and it is such a cute, fitting finale.
It has been a while since a series ended on such a fitting note as Mashle.
Akane-Banashi - Hikaru has finished and managed to capture the top spot. She had a perfect score from the online voting, but also very high marks from the judges.
Akane comes up next and it really is going to be a surprise. She's performing something that is new, unexpected for her, and a story that reminder her of her Dad.
This is either going to be amazing or a real challenge. Can't wait to see what's next.
Do Retry - Our hero is trying to learn stronger techniques, finds a study guide, gets stopped by some dude who apparently knew his father...and they're going to fight soon!
Oh and the study guide was made by the main character's Dad when he was a boxer.
WHAAT!
Ice-Head Gill - Wow this series has such a cute aesthetic for covering such a dark topic.
This chapter has Gil running into a man who lost his fiancé. Turned out she was being controlled by a lich that had come from Hell and Gil ends up having to kill her.
The very cute design of Gil and the art style is interesting as it is offset by the dark nature of people being controlled by demons and their bodies going on murdering sprees.
Jiangshi X - Wow! We've got our trio trying to escape with the Princess after a powerful Jiangshi arrives.
The one is trying to tap into the powers of his father to stop this one and help them escape. It looks like he may actually succeed - but if he doesn't, it is going to be brutal.
@dusk I mean, I LOVED Mashle. From beginning to end. It had its moments, but the final arc was fantastically done IMO. And Mash truly does change the world for those who do not have magic.
There were slow moments after a bit and if you don't like the core schtick of the series, you may not like it. But, I did. A lot.
