Mashle: Magic and Muscles, Vol. 16

Can muscles crush magic?!

In the magic realm, magic is everything—everyone can use it, and one’s skill determines their social status. Deep in the forest, oblivious to the ways of the world, lives Mash. Thanks to his daily training, he’s become a fitness god. When Mash is discovered, he has no choice but to enroll in magic school, where he must beat the competition without revealing his secret—he can’t use magic!

Mash shows off the hard-won results of his strenuous training against his greatest and final obstacle before confronting Innocent Zero—Doom! Now that he knows the extent of his body’s capabilities and how to control them, Mash’s strength has grown to an unimaginable level! But Doom, having found a worthy opponent, responds by unleashing his own true power! Meanwhile, the eclipse is almost here, and Innocent Zero’s power is near its zenith. Who will come out on top in the battle between ultimate powers?!

Hajime Komoto made his manga debut with the hit series Mashle: Magic and Muscles, which began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in January 2020.
