Shonen Jump’s Most Underrated Anime Finally Confirms New Season’s Release Window

by

Good news for fans of the anime Mashle: Magic and Muscles! After a period of uncertainty, a release window for the third season has finally been announced. Although it was originally planned as a full adaptation of the manga, there hadn’t been any updates after season two ended, leaving many wondering when the show would return.

Updates on Mashle season 3 have been scarce, but Jump Festa 2026 recently announced that Mashle: Magic and Muscles season 3 will premiere in 2027. While a specific release date hasn’t been revealed, and fans will have to wait a while, the upcoming story promises to make it worthwhile.

What To Expect From Mashle: Magic And Muscles Season 3

Season 3 of Mashle is expected to continue the story right after the events of season 2. Mash will be competing in the Divine Visionary exam, hoping to protect himself and battle against Innocent Zero. This puts him in direct competition with students from Walkis Academy, a rival school, and unfortunately, their strongest contender is one of Mash’s own brothers, who is dedicated to serving Innocent Zero.

The Divine Visionary Exam arc successfully increases the tension and excitement while keeping the story’s signature humor. Its action sequences are some of the best in the series, and as the second-to-last arc, it brilliantly sets the stage for a fantastic finale.

The Divine Visionary Exam arc has the potential to look stunning in animated form. The Mashle anime significantly improved its animation and direction in season 2, and if season 3 continues that progress, the arc could be visually spectacular. That improvement alone makes waiting until 2027 for the premiere seem worthwhile.

Why Mashle: Magic And Muscles Is An Underrated Gem

Even though Mashle: Magic and Muscles has been a successful manga in Shonen Jump recently, it hasn’t gotten the recognition it deserves. Its relatively short run made it difficult to stand out, and other popular series like Jujutsu Kaisen, Sakamoto Days, and Blue Box overshadowed it, making it hard to gain widespread attention.

Despite any potential flaws, Mashle: Magic and Muscles consistently delivers with its memorable characters, exciting action, beautiful art, and smart humor. It’s much better than many realize, and stands out as one of the best comedic manga currently published in Shonen Jump, and a top manga overall.

Mashle: Magic and Muscles is a consistently great series, and the anime adaptation has helped it gain the recognition it deserves. Season 3 promises to build on that success, making the 2027 release date well worth the wait.
