Muscles and weightlifting meet magic, That's what Mashle is all about. This anime doesn't reinvent the wheel or add anything new to the formula but it's one heck of a fun and bingeworthy show!
It tells the story of a world where people use magic casually, Mash Burnedead is a boy living in a deep dark forest with one secret, he can't use magic!
Although he wants a quiet life with his family, people find out about his secret and suddenly start trying to kill him which forces Mash into enrolling in a school for magic, as he sets his sights on becoming a “Divine Visionary,” the elite of the elite.
This isn't the first time Creepy Nuts appeared in an anime opening or ending as the group was also behind the opening and ending of the excellent "Call of the Night" anime by Studio LIDENFILMS. The opening and ending in question are "Daten (堕天)" and "Yofukashi no Uta (よふかしのうた)."
