Very pleasantly surprised. Each episodes has grown from the previous to the point where I don't actually feel the need to compare it to Mashel or Black Clover anymore. Looking forward to more seasons.
The fact that this anime has kept its quality and keeps getting better throughout this season is truly remarkable unlike other shows that dropped significantly as time goes on (ToG) hope this anime gets attention it needs
No offense to danmachi but Wistoria has a much better concept imo. I don't really know which he wrote first. if wistoria is his later work I gotta praise the massive improvement he made. Danmachi has really nice world building going for it and that carries over to wistoria. but wistoria tops that with the better story as well.
@@ghosthunter0950 Wistoria is his second work and as someone who’s read both source materials I have to disagree. While I do admit the anime is better, putting only the stories side by side Danmachi is a more interesting premise and to be honest the only reason Wistoria comes close is the lack of those ecchi and harem aspects that plague Danmachi. The Wistoria story is just more generic and the farther you go into season 1 the more heavily it resembles Danmachi, but I do believe in Fujino Omori’s writing ability to make it its own unique story.
@@bbobbersI highly disagree. Danmachi suffers from mythology plays to hold it up. Wistoria is a much better fleshed out story than Danmachi could ever be, the story has already been told, it's simply a different medium and interpretation.
Wistoria is basically a speed run of both Dan Machi and Black clover while using and maintaining the quality of both shows at their heights the whole show through and im here for it.
its a very interesting change of pace, instead of your standard "bully the little guy" character he's a "why wont you look at me?! im trying to help you!" character who's "medaling"(from Will's POV) turned to bullying at somepoint
I had never heard of Wistoria until I saw it as an upcoming anime and decided to give it a shot because I give any fantasy at least an episode. A few minutes into the first episode and I already decided i was going to be reading the manga and as soon as the episode was over I started reading. Caught up to the manga before episode 2 even came out and have been eagerly awaiting new chapters. Definitely at least give the anime a chance if you like fantasy.
i was surprised when i heard it was from Danmachi's author as well, honestly im holding myself back from reading the manga till after S1 is finished (which i still need to see how many Ep's its going to get) but man im salivating over it already just from the 10 episodes we have out
@@darkdruidsvale Make sure you read the Official version. The english scanlations screw up some of the character names. Since episode 10 ends with the end of the 4 volume of the Manga. I don't think we will see the end of Volume 5 in the anime since that would be a weird not to end on. This season is supposed to be only 12 Episodes long. FYI, if you didn't catch some of the names during the Festival you will know it's Danmachi's author by the end of Ep 12
Honestly, it’s been one of those animes that keep me on the edge every week! Hopefully it gets a season two! Because it seems they’re just getting started in terms of the real story. There are also many compelling characters!
season 2 might come longer if you read the manga there are only 2 arcs after the season 1 the graduation arc and the ascension arc(currently not finished)
Great video!! Loving the anime. And I love the touch of using the DanMachi theme/music in your video. One of my favourite themes if not my favourite themes in anime.
Wistoria is so much fun to watch. I look forward to it every week. After having read the manga as well, I know it is going to get even better. It feels like a perfect combination of DanMachi and Black Clover!
@@barryg.5224 yeah i agree, but from what the video is saying it is meant to be like that, it’s not like the were trying to be original and did a copy and paste. Every episode seems to have action, like it was made to be entertaining in anime format. Although i find it kind of shallow it’s one of the few animes this season or maybe even the only one that i want to watch as soon as it drops. Tower of God has been disappointing to say the least
I love the atomsphere and general "vibe" of the show. It has the same kind of immersiveness that something like Harry Potter has. It sucks you right in and it feels natural and realistic. The animation is also crazy good. The 40 second long continous shot in ep 7 was actually jaw dropping.
One similarity is the more fleshed out bully character. Sion is interesting because he didn’t start trying to bully Will, but that’s how it ended up happening after Will rejected him. In Draco’s case a similar thing ends up occurring, and the mentions of his strict and racist family goes to explain his own views. And by the end, his struggle in trying to help his family but not wanting to serve Voldemort feels REAL. The concept could be written as a separate story from his POV.
Sometimes, keeping things simple is the best way to go, Wistoria knows what it is and does a damn good job conveying it. Definitely worth your time, if you ask me.
Every episode of this anime has at least what shot that makes me literally think "why are the animators going so hard on this show? ". Really enjoying it.
Your point on simplicity is the same one I was making to a friend recently. This show has a simple premise that’s been done before but it stands out because it’s executed perfectly!
Thanks for the recommendation. It has similarities to other animes as you've mentioned where the protagonist is the underdog with 0 magic abilities and the whole school thinks is the worse student. But it has it's charm and interesting enough story. The art work is gorgeous. I'm caught up now. Can't wait for the next episode!
Wonderful summary of this. It is a awesome anime with breathtaking action scenes. I have loved every episode of it, and I hope it gets another season or two.
Great video again. I agree, this is what a great staff can do, take a cliche plotline and elevate it through music, good production, fight scenes etc. It proves that anime can deliver a completly different experience than manga dispite reading the same source material.
didn't even watch the video to know it was a good one i should watch, you made a video about it after all... im back to watch it any way after having caught up to feed the algorithm lmao
Initially I thought this anime seemed generic, but after seeing this video I decided to give it a shot. I binged it in a day, caught up with the manga the next day and now I’m impatiently waiting for the new chapters.
I originally wrote the anime off after readying the summary for it but after this video I gave it a shot and know I’m very interested in the show thank you
The animation is top notch, the characters are interesting and likable, the lore is mysterious and makes you want to know more and the magic system is simple but well used.
I didn’t watch this video, but I saw a couple of thumbnails mentioning it and gave it a try with the 3 episode rule. Then I binged it in one sitting. Loved it, S2 confirmed, iirc, so that’s great.
story wise, wistoria is not really that interesting, it's definitely carried by its production quality since without it, i can definitely see this anime will be just like any other fantasy anime out there. I agree with what's mostly said in the video except for the title, the best new anime this season is definitely "Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!" though the genres are very different between the two, so some people might not agree (i know some people just inherently don't like romcoms). If we're strictly speaking *"new Fantasy"* anime this season (As this genre is more fitting to the demographic of this channel), then yes Wistoria is the best.
@@alfredxsiv I’m enjoying both same same amount even though they’re so different. Wistoria is very predictable, but for me that makes it comfortable, and also builds hype. I didn’t expect to enjoy Wistoria as much as I do. Makeine is the type of anime I tend to be into these days, but I don’t think it would be THAT good! A-1 decided to knock it out of the park.
Agreed. It's depressing how easily people who cream that a series is great just based on how it looks. It's Cheat Skill all over again, & like that series, a year from now no one will remember this show.
I honestly love this show so much I always forget it's a thing each week I am like oh yeah this anime is out and each episode is better and better to the point that it's now my most anticipated of the week's release.
man you doing WISTORIA now great stuff i hope you talk about it more. i do think what you said is true it is like a film and great songs as well but he having a rivel in the fire guy i dont know about that
Bro I read the manga before the anime was even announced. I was hype as hell when I saw the announcement. My only gripe going in was the possible animation quality but I was wrong. Quality has been kept over the entire season. Very much enjoying it
I like to judge an animes greatness based on how quick i click to watch the episode when i see it released. Wistoria is definitely leading the pack there this season.
I have to say Wistoria has been my most exciting show to get home and watch. I also like how all the characters have some substance even background characters who may be tropes it still fills in the world. I do its gets some recognition as I would love a KiKi plush
I was honestly shocked when I found out that this was gonna become an anime. I had it read to me on a manga recap channel one time. And I so hope they go far with it.
It's been a while since we've ezaten this good animation wise brother ! The story ain't that deep but it is just as hype if not more than the best moments from Solo Leveling !
After a few episodes I became a little nervous each week that we were going to see what was supposed to be the inevitable drop in quality.. it literally never came, the just keep cooking. It’s so genuinely good
STOP PLEASE, YOU HAD ME AT DANMACHI AUTHOR! but yeah, in all seriousness, I'll binge it as soon as it finishes also - this weekend is reserved for spice and wolf
You were right. Can't believe I skipped this initially. It's a masterpiece. Though I wouldn't have skipped it if I had realized from the start it was by the same author as Danmachi.
The only complaint I have for this series is that while Omori-sensei is working on this, Danmachi falls to the wayside. Still, he's planting alternate versions of several Danmachi characters (up till now, Gareth in a flashback, and Lefiya and Filvis as Tower mages, not to mention that he's kept the royalty surnames for High Elves; soon, we'll also meet SPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILER Finn SPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILER although prums are mistaken for weird dwarves SPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILERSPOILER SPOILER END). One interesting difference between the animes of Danmachi and Wistoria is that Wistoria's animation team is not afraid to add to the story, lengthening some scenes and adding some new ones, to marvelous effect.
What do you think about Wistoria?
Will check it out! Thanks For the reccomendation ❤❤❤❤
animation is super good it covers for its slightly weaker plot
About to watch rn
Very pleasantly surprised. Each episodes has grown from the previous to the point where I don't actually feel the need to compare it to Mashel or Black Clover anymore.
Looking forward to more seasons.
on my top 3 this summer animes.. it was on your recomendations video. Thank you
The fact that this anime has kept its quality and keeps getting better throughout this season is truly remarkable unlike other shows that dropped significantly as time goes on (ToG) hope this anime gets attention it needs
Frieren is far better.
@@fjoergyn ok lol
@@mongrel_intruder-v3r if you dont watch it, pls do it. You would get the same thoughts. Frieren is just insane
@@fjoergynare you really comparing an underrated anime to the number 1 anime on Mal?
So what? Does that mean we can only enjoy Frieren and only Frieren till a better anime comes out? Such a brain dead comment @@fjoergyn
Imagine reading the Wistoria manga then started comparing Wil and Bell untouchable determination just to end up learning they have the same author.
As a huge fan of dan machi, thank you for this information :)
Think I found out when Finn was introduced lmao.

I really liked how they played with Scion as a character. It completely turned over how I looked at him from Will's pov
Sion is my favorite character he is great
its a very interesting change of pace, instead of your standard "bully the little guy" character he's a "why wont you look at me?! im trying to help you!" character who's "medaling"(from Will's POV) turned to bullying at somepoint
@@darkdruidsvale yea,it was mainly his pride as a mage that made him bully Will,even though he wanted to help him in his own way at the start
If only a series like berserk could get such a super star cast of animators, then all would be right in the world

nah, we need another flop like berserk 2016 2017 to remind us, like in berserk, how cruel is this world

I was already planning on watching this based on the visuals. Thanks for giving me the final push to go ahead with it!!
It's literally my weekly drug and it always put a smile on my face I live to see it
your voice is beautiful, and you have been my guide through many cut content. You basically read mangas for me. Thankyou!
Honestly, it’s been one of those animes that keep me on the edge every week! Hopefully it gets a season two! Because it seems they’re just getting started in terms of the real story. There are also many compelling characters!
season 2 might come longer if you read the manga there are only 2 arcs after the season 1 the graduation arc and the ascension arc(currently not finished)
apparently production for season 2 has been green lit, the manga has just about enough for a second season atm
Hayashi did the music for Wistoria!? No wonder it's truly good!
So glad hearing someone talking about this amazing series.
sheeeeesh iv been waiting for you to cover wistoria
I’m watching it with my mother, who is relatively new to anime, and we both love it.
Definitely interested because of this video. Keep up the great work
Great video!! Loving the anime. And I love the touch of using the DanMachi theme/music in your video. One of my favourite themes if not my favourite themes in anime.
Wistoria is so much fun to watch. I look forward to it every week. After having read the manga as well, I know it is going to get even better.
It feels like a perfect combination of DanMachi and Black Clover!
I’ve been showing my friends this and we all said it was cliche but fun, the quality is crazy good so being cliche is ok 😅
I don't like the main character tho like why is he so naive and stuff
@@colinnelson6379 naive about what? I don’t think he’s really naive maybe overly nice
It's so cliche & stereotypical, so full of totally one-dimensional characters, take out the pretty flashiness & no one would be watching this.

"In a world filled with mages, he is the only warrior."
Such an awesome line that captures so much of Will's character.

Love your videos! Always happy to learn more! You always make My day 🎉🎉🎉
thank you for the reviews. You have convince me to watch this Anime and give the a shot watch it.
Wonderful summary of this. It is a awesome anime with breathtaking action scenes. I have loved every episode of it, and I hope it gets another season or two.
Felt great reading the title considering that's the one anime I was putting off watching just from vibes alone. Guess that's me going into it now.

I start watching it because of you.
Thanks for the recommendation
I honestly love this show so much I always forget it's a thing each week I am like oh yeah this anime is out and each episode is better and better to the point that it's now my most anticipated of the week's release.
The Fable is the hidden gem this season .
1:50 aight, I'm sold; off to check it out 😂
The quality is top tier 🍗
Hey, @AniNews please continue Arifrueta cut content, season 3 has been announced to be in production. It's also scheduled to come out next season.
man you doing WISTORIA now great stuff i hope you talk about it more. i do think what you said is true it is like a film and great songs as well but he having a rivel in the fire guy i dont know about that
Very well done video. Thank you Aninews. I honestly want to see a review video of the series World Trigger.
Kamen Rider Gavv and Wistoria are currently my favorite things to watch on Sundays.
Bro I read the manga before the anime was even announced. I was hype as hell when I saw the announcement. My only gripe going in was the possible animation quality but I was wrong. Quality has been kept over the entire season. Very much enjoying it
Okay! you got me, imma watch it rn
i just finished watching the first 10 ep and this pops up seconds later
I like to judge an animes greatness based on how quick i click to watch the episode when i see it released. Wistoria is definitely leading the pack there this season.
I have to say Wistoria has been my most exciting show to get home and watch. I also like how all the characters have some substance even background characters who may be tropes it still fills in the world. I do its gets some recognition as I would love a KiKi plush
Its kinda funny how the one guy who can't use the power of books is the only student wearing glasses
wistoria is the most recent new anime that has had me in hold like this since frieren
That last episode had me like oh this is one of those epic stories. I'm mad there is not more episodes
I loved this anime. Thanks for the recommendation.
I picked it up a few days ago and I literally could not stop watching it til I caught up.
I do agree with you. I genuinly look forward each episode like I did with other really good anime
I read the manga and I’m SO hyped for the future! Such a phenomenal series
I spotted Wistoria before the season began and was hyped for it, it hasn't disappointed, but I'm worried about how this season will wrap.
I will watch it thanks to your video!
Yes I'm going to put it on my watch list. This season was pretty thin, so this will at least fill the buffer till next season starts.
Wistoria is amazing, I feel like it really shows the growth of the author with its story. And everyone behind the production is incredible
I won't lie.This has been on my two watch list, but because of this video i'm going to be watching it tonight
I like the worldbuilding a lot and Omori knows how to make it work.
You convinced me to give a try
we needed this video in the upcoming season not at the end of the season
Finally. This anime really went under the radar this season. Hope it gets more love.
Great 👍🏻 video nice 👍🏻 hype!!!!!!!
If the MC had actually 300 years worth of military and scientific knowledge. The MC can actually go easily toe to toe with any wizard.
Dude, I'm glad you told me to have a look at this anime. I dismissed it as it sounded like oh so many others.
I was honestly shocked when I found out that this was gonna become an anime. I had it read to me on a manga recap channel one time. And I so hope they go far with it.
I'm really enjoying it rn, i hope the story picks up later, or the characters idk
But the animation and choreography are enjoyable on their own still
So glad you mentioned this one, my number one recommendation as well this season.
This anime has a good story and great animation… it doesn’t break any new ground but executes the tropes of the genre very well
I've been planning on binging it. Kinda wanna wait till the season is done so i can just run through it
It's been a while since we've ezaten this good animation wise brother ! The story ain't that deep but it is just as hype if not more than the best moments from Solo Leveling !
it sure is a refreshing glass of fantasy after so long of not watching anime
After a few episodes I became a little nervous each week that we were going to see what was supposed to be the inevitable drop in quality.. it literally never came, the just keep cooking. It’s so genuinely good
The quality in the anime and manga are insane
Completed this one and loved it. Any recommendation similar to this?
Love the video and would love to see what S5 of Danmachi is going to adapt from the LN
STOP PLEASE, YOU HAD ME AT DANMACHI AUTHOR! but yeah, in all seriousness, I'll binge it as soon as it finishes also - this weekend is reserved for spice and wolf
Came out of no where for me and it’s my current favorite weekly watch!
The fight choreography in this Anime is so good. I wish something like this was made for "Solo Leveling". Movement instead of flash of lights
An anime recommendation from aninews is automatically a must watch.
I'll add this to watchlist and check it out during less active season.
nah, MAKEINE is the GOAT of this season.
Both are my favorite new anime of the season.
agree hard
That’s not fantasy
Makeine is great!
Losing heroines right? Ehh I dunno man its just therapist for the girls, its mid tbh
Besides Makeine, this is my number one this Season🔥
About to go watch the first episode now, because of this.
*danmachi ost in the background" aaaaand now i need to watch danmachi again
