Toonami is about to add another recent anime to its block with the announcement of MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES. Aniplex of America confirmed plans during this weekend’s New York Comic-Con event, noting that the first season is set to air as part of the Adult Swim anime block starting on November 9.
There are also plans to rebroadcast the first season of the Blue Exorcist anime starting on November 2.
The first two seasons of MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES were both animated at A-1 Pictures and directed by Tomoya Tanaka. Meanwhile, the manga ran from 2020 and 2023, and has 18 volumes in total. More was announced as being in the works back in May.
Here’s how Shueisha describes the manga:
MASHLE: MAGIC AND MUSCLES Plot
This is a world of magic where magic is used for everything. But deep in the forest exists a young man who spends his time training and bulking up. He can’t use magic, but he enjoys a peaceful life with his father. But one day, his life is put in danger! Will his muscular body protect him from the magic users who are out to get him? Powerfully trained muscles crush magic as this abnormal magical fantasy begins!
