マッシュル-MASHLE- 1

I was waiting for this release for a while now, not only because it's what's on publication in the Shonen Jump at the moment, but because Norma Editorial (here in Spain) released a First Edition promotion where the volume costs 4 euros. So, win-win.

I must say I was NOT disappointed; I don't usually buy/read comedy manga that often, but this one truly made me laugh all the way through. If you don't know what it's about, it is basically as if Harry Potter was born a muggle...but trained like Saitama from «One Punch Man», had a no bs attitude, was very practical, and if he were even given a similar goal to that of «My Hero Academia»/«Black Clover». In fact, you can see a lot of similar situations that Harry endured while in Hogwarts, such as flying practice, quidditch, the labyrinth from «The Goblet of Fire» (which was actually accurately adapted in the sense that I finally got to see the sphinx, which was missing from the film adaptation), etc.

But, as I've mentioned before, he has a no bs attitude, so it's truly amazing, as well as ridiculously funny, how he solves each problem without the use of magic and how he beats the living shit out of his opponents using rather ingenious/reasonable tactics.

I'm hooked, what can I say.

The plot can be summarized as follows: What if One Punch Man existed in the world of Harry Potter?

After completing the first season on Netflix (and actually having a good time) , I decided to delve into the manga version of the series to catch up on the rest of the story. In general, it proved to be a thoroughly enjoyable experience. While the storyline occasionally leans towards simplicity (even brain-dead at times...) , offering moments of lightheartedness, Mashle is undeniably a captivating and entertaining read for those seeking a fun escape.
