posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Muse Vietnam announced on Thursday that it will add the Magical Warfare anime. The first episode will debut on the YouTube channel on Friday, August 28 at 7:00 p.m. GMT +7, with a new episode every following day.
The series debuted in Japan in January 2014. The series is based on Hisashi Suzuki's Mahō Sensō light novel series, which launched in 2011 and ended in 2015 with 12 volumes. Animax Asia previously aired the anime in Southeast Asia.
In this modern magic action story, Takeshi Nanase is an ordinary high school boy who has a somewhat dark past. Due to certain circumstances, he formed a "fake" couple with his childhood friend Kurumi Isoshima, but otherwise, he lives a normal life. However, one day, he comes across a girl named Mui Aiba, in a uniform he has never seen before, collapsed on the school campus. This encounter changes Takeshi's destiny completely. Mui tells Takeshi that she is a magician, and she apologizes, for she turned Takeshi into a magician, too. What Takeshi once knew as one world is actually two — the world where magicians live and the world where humans live.
Yuzo Sato (Kaiji, Iron Man, Gokusen) directed the series at Madhouse. Kazuyuki Fudeyasu (Hajime no Ippo Rising, Miss Monochrome, Walkure Romanze) handled the series composition, and Ryouma Ebata (Busou Shinki, Birdy the Mighty: Decode) served as both character designer and chief animation director. Masato Kōda (Arpeggio of Blue Steel) handled the music, and Yuuka Nanri's performed the opening theme song "Senkō no Prisoner."
