Synopsis​

In the kingdom of Earlshide, Merlin Wolford was once regarded as a national hero, hailed for both his power and achievements. Preferring a quiet life however, he secludes himself deep in the rural woods, dedicating his time to raising an orphan that he saved. This orphan is Shin, a normal salaryman in modern-day Japan who was reincarnated into Merlin's world while still retaining his past memories. As the years pass, Shin displays unparalleled talent in both magic casting and martial arts, much to Merlin's constant amazement.

On his 15th birthday however, it becomes apparent that Shin only developed his combat skills and nothing else, leaving him with blatant social awkwardness, a lack of common sense, and a middling sense of responsibility. As a result, Shin enrolls in the kingdom's Magic Academy to hone his skills and mature among other teenagers. However, living a normal life is impossible, as he is established as a local celebrity almost as soon as he arrives.

Kenja no Mago follows Shin Wolford's high school life in the capital as he makes new friends, learns about the world, and fights off the various forces of evil surrounding him and his city.

Episode 1 was ok. Truck-kun strikes again. Shin was reborn into a new world. So he's only learnt combat skills lol, off to a magic academy. Already saved some girls from some cliche baddies.

 

Episode 2 was good. No surprise there that Shin scored highest in the exam. Ah, the cliche asshole noble lol, good thing the prince isn't a douche. So Shin's gear is stupid valuable lol.

 

Episode 3 was interesting. So Kurt was actually being manipulated and maybe brainwashed by the teacher thus turning into a demon kind of. Didn't expect him to be killed off.

 

Episode 4 was good. So the teacher, Oliver, was also a demonoid. Got rekt by Shin though, narrowly escaped.

 

Episode 5 was good. Shin's new weapon is cool. He's also training his classmates neat. Didn't expect war on the horizon.

 

Episode 6 was good. The knights in training got a bit of a humbling. Lol at Shin's massive explosion magic.

 

Episode 7 was alright. So they're training a bit more under Shin.

 

Episode 8 was good. Finally Shin and Sicily got together.

 

Episode 9 was alright. Shin and Sicily got engaged fast lol. Her folks are good people. The training has paid off too.

 

Episode 10 was good. Didn't see that backstory for Oliver at all. How sad.

 

Episode 11 was ok. They're giving it to the demonoids pretty easy.

 

Episode 12 was alright. Maria sure was powerful, but they were fended off in the end. I feel like she's pregnant with some demon child or something. Melida and Merlin finally alone, just for the kids to show up lol. Show was pretty average.
