Kinda what Webotama said. There isnt really any realism to it. Its just a headstrong mc that never loses his way. This sounds good on paper, but the fact he never holds grudges or feels despair of how he’s treated makes him seem not human. Wignall for example became far more likable to me because he made sense and felt human
@@UnifiedEntity Maybe 5% of the time. Its rare for someone to know what they want and be undaunted through life 24/7. Thats the thing in life. Wingnall the elf is what should have happened to Will if he was any realistic person. This is just shonen protagonistism
@@TheNecroFisherman 5% of the time would be a couple thousand of people. And this protag happens to be that vs every other character who you could argue goes through the "cliches" in life we see a billion times over. And that's false because there are shonen protags that have issues with their upbringing or circumstances in some shape or form. Horrible generalization there.
So, he ultimately does have magic, just not in the typical sense. Interesting. Also interesting that the teachers clearly know about this ability, given that they said its name at 1:32, but they evidently had no idea that Will possessed this ability.
Spoiler: Wagner knew Will had this ability since he was born, he lied to him probably to protect him. In the nest season you'll see Wagner apologizing to will for never telling him the truth about his op magic.
@@PVEguardian98 Near future? next episode is the last of the season, also its a given that he will do the combo sword with the other main character, as he does with literally one of the "antagonists" of the arc; My point is that, that part is not animated yet, and we dont even know how/when will it be animated, so its just stupid to say "its not better than this thing that did not happen yet"
Well, Omori is a fan of Fromsoft games (Havel's Armor cameos in Season 1 of Danmachi, during the ep where Bell goes to the armor shop), so it makes sense... He also had his own Patches style cameos in this series (like how Lefiya and Filvis from Danmachi showed up a few episodes back). By the way, it goes both ways. Miyazaki based Wolnir in Dark Souls 3 off the 37th floor boss Udeaus.
But is it his sword ? Or he can use any sword or weapon and store magic in it ?? Since it's his ability..? Or no he needs that one and it's special in a way?
@@frocity8459 It's not just the sword.. he gets charged himself.. Will is a battery (I think that's what they call 'Wis', his power name or skill name).. he needs a weapon that can handle strong magic so he can use both the charged energy in him and the strength of his weapon to maximize attack power.. it also allows him to use his own spells like the Mages. As long as he is charged
To put into scale how strong Ignis Wis is, let's put a bunch of numbers together: The Grand Duke is worth 270 credits. With the 1/1000 rule, its as strong as a mage worth 270,000 credits. The maximum amount of credits a mage can earn in their 7 years at the academy is 12,000. In other words, a Grand Duke is about as strong as more than 22 perfect students combined. And Ignis Wis just split it clean down the middle.
Consodering the Author of Danmachi make that Freya disguise herself as Syr to get close to Bell. Then Rosty being Elfy to spend time with Will make sense.
@@auraguardian6277 I already got it. Wis Ignis is what they're calling it for now but it probably wont be the official name when Hayashi drops the song on spotify
Damn! Man no matter how many times I watched this episode it was so good and especially this scene was just so good thanks for uploading this on UA-cam Crunchyroll😊
Honestly this makes the series SO much better, it's just so lame that for the MC to be yet another 'no-magic' brute MC and I kept feeling like he should have some kind of sword magic, now we FINALLY get it.
I also find it cool that it's something he can't do by himself. I can imagine a wide variety of effects depending on who he's teaming up with. It's a great way of showing no matter how strong you are individually there are certain heights you won't be able to reach on your own.
The fact that he was gonna get a power up and I literally had NO IDEA but it makes so much sense is why this is the best anime of the season. I love Tower of God but damn this anime is so tough.
This is why Yuki Hayashi is my favourite composer for anime. His themes retain some of his style while matching perfectly with whatever genre of show he’s working on. If I heard this and Haikyuu’s OST blind I would not be able to tell it’s the same guy. While I love composers like Sawano I think for example Sawano’s biggest flaw is a lot of his music having too much of his usual style that I can basically immediately tell it’s him. Makes it so if I heard one of his tracks I can’t really tell if it’s from say 86 or AOT because of how similar they are. Not that it’s a bad thing I love 86 & AOT music it’s just I wish more composers branched out and actually matched their music with the genre.
I had to collect my jaw of the floor... intense episode no kidding! what an ending. def top 3 of this season, along with ... actually the best of this season in its category (beside love romance anime type)!! For me this one gets close to Mash and Kaiju8 !
Great first season, I highly recommend watching it all to haven’t , every episode is animated with great effort and I was satisfied with every minute watching so far it’s 10/10 from some random dude in Ireland
Watch Wistoria: Wand and Sword here! got.cr/cc-wwas

@@rodrigomedeiros4864 OST Ignis Wis or Wistoria: Wand and Sword | Soundtrack Cap 11
That last transition from his eyes into the ending credits is 🔥
_Video description:_
*"They said the thing!"*
*Me:* Honestly... everyone was waiting for that moment!
They really just dropped a lowkey old school-esque shonen masterpiece on us
what we had with tower of god till well... :(
Yuki Hayashi cooking with that ost AGAIN!!! 😭 Really reminds me of You Say Run vocal version.
Do u know the OST name ? pleeaaase
@@thexjedy1135 The name of the OST itself is: "Wistoria: Wand and Sword"
He's a legend
I was thinking the same thing. This almost seemed like an anime movie moment!
Rosty throwing a ice shard, and then transitions to Elfaria. Definitely hinting at Rosty being Elfaria's magic ability/spell.
Defs, she is the goat for always looking after bro and helping him
Wait- you just gagged me
🤯🤯 damn every single interactions between them hits different when you imagine her controlling the magic by constantly staring down to the surface
It’s definitely is lol
If his name wasn’t a giveaway this might’ve confirmed it
Rosty Nowman, Seriously?
Truly Will has become the *Wistoria: Wand and Sword*
Also it's nice of Zorc to make a guest appearance in this show. Glad to see he's doing well.
YU GI OOOOHHHHH
I mean, for one definition of well... he's clearly lacking his pp-dragon after losing to the goddess of light.
truly the wistoria of all time
My favorite anime right damn now! I promise Wistoria is peak! 🔥🔥🔥
Yup every episode was fire 100%
Glad im not the only person who feels this way lol
Easily the best action anime the season its in
@pspsmallz just sad that the action is over. Hopefully we get a Lil action in our lil ep 12
1000%agree had no expectation to so much expectation i have come a long way
You know an episode was going to be peak when it goes straight to the intro
😂😂 i though the same thing i had food ready and when I saw the intro at the start I was like is bout to be fire
That or when there’s NO intro and they go straight into the episode lol
They SAID IT!! they said the Title!! 😮😁
set your sword ablaze
One hell of a way to end a episode show is amazing
A dragon fire magic coated sword slicing a demon in half....HELL YEAH!🐉🔥🗡️😎👍
I'm confused why this doesn't have way more views. I honestly thought this show was way more popular.
A cliche fest anime wrapped in a pretty package is still a cliche fest anime.

He has magic within his body, but he can't use it directly. Rather his magic boosted him physically. And Wis is his special ability since he was born.
@@kodokutamashi1569 who was the baby and that woman
@@vxpkey9573 I assume the baby is Will, and that woman might be his mother.
@@itsnotpan.Many think that woman may be the Magic Queen Mercedes.

This episode was amazing 😮
Nope.... compare to will & elfaria ice sword, this episode is nothing
@@Bello_wrld ?? has that already happened in the anime?

Still a cote victim in writing tho...
the flashback seeing queen merecedes as his possible mother is crazy too

@@AmonnRaMaliketh shall not part with it again
Now, I truly understand the title.
That’s why it’s called wistoria, because bro can store magic into his sword through wis
But is it his sword ? Or he can use any sword or weapon and store magic in it ?? Since it's his ability..? Or no he needs that one and it's special in a way?

Makes perfect sense
@@xbgsheikiii3593 Elfie has been juicing him for a long time.. he just can't access that power yet.. you'll see how he does it in Season 02
Man I got to stop reading the comment section for anime
1:28 It's like Will wields the Demon Dweller Sword
Imagine having a gun with a bayonet attached and always using the knife part...
my boy Will got the ammunition he needed
Wow lol dope analogy 😎
This farther proves that Rosti is Elfaria ice clone. Just wait a few more episodes.
This was this animes demon slayer episode 19 moment, phenomenal!
Looks like this truly was *our wand and sword*

And Ignis Wis just split it clean down the middle.
He'll probably have to share these credits with the party and get only 45 credits... I think it's better to fight a bunch of 5 credits hahaha
Some how this show has become my favorite of season, maybe even year. It hits perfectly for my tastes.
Consodering the Author of Danmachi make that Freya disguise herself as Syr to get close to Bell.
Then Rosty being Elfy to spend time with Will make sense.
I dont think he will do that hes to good of a writer to do the the same thing twice but something similar is defo possible
Thx for the spoilers...........
@@Mobo___ They might be good, but this storyline might catch the author's taste too much, so you never know.
The way he is giving away hints, there is no turning back from the fact that Rosty is a clone of Elfie
I wasn't expecting a Danmachi spoiler in the comments. Damnit.
This was another great episode.
I enjoy watching and reviewing it each week.
The jewel of this season.
I don’t watch anime often but that final scene gave me goosebumps 🔥 10/10
I WANT THE INSERT SONG AND I WANT IT NOW
Watch for an OST by Yuki Hayashi to come out.
@@auraguardian6277 I already got it. Wis Ignis is what they're calling it for now but it probably wont be the official name when Hayashi drops the song on spotify

Truly perfect 😍😍😍 When the OST started i was to cry 😍😍
Man Danmachi's author sure knows how to make a dungeon anime intense
I knew this anime was awesome, but this episode……..priceless.
Is it just me or is that ost actually hard 😂
This and I Parry Everything are Gold for this season 😮💨
Animation cant be better.
Wistoria: Are u sure?
If they make season 2 it will be supper dope to see him remember his magic scene
Set your heart ablaze Will!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Anime of this year
God damn they could show more after that stare but credits where like 10 seconds later.
The Elfsria/Rosty ice cube dropped, 🧊 the light bulb turned on, 💡 and Will said The THING! 🔥🗡️
this episode felt amazing it brought a feeling older animes give
It reminded me of the final episode of the Record of Lodoss War OVA specifically. Especially with the music.
Honestly this makes the series SO much better, it's just so lame that for the MC to be yet another 'no-magic' brute MC and I kept feeling like he should have some kind of sword magic, now we FINALLY get it.

PEAK EPISODE 10/10🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Will Serfort the Swordmage Warrior
One day be able to cross Swordsman with the likes of Asta the Hage Village Anti-Magic Swordsman Devil from Black Clover!🗡️👍
The fact that he was gonna get a power up and I literally had NO IDEA but it makes so much sense is why this is the best anime of the season. I love Tower of God but damn this anime is so tough.
Have you seen The Elusive Samurai? I highly recommend it. Wistoria is very much so enjoyable thus far.

Made me shed a tear
Me too! Just how amazing it was!
This episode was epic. Despair, excitement, resentment, belief, and some good fighting scenes 😁💪
And thus on this day. Will has been promoted to Rune Knight!
I swear i almost heard and tasted him shouting HINOKAMI KAGURA!
Maybe the true Wistoria was the Wand and Sword we made along the way...
Despite it being WAND AND SWORD it does look more like MAGIC AND SWORD instead
Wand is magic
Where did the magic come from
@grantosas7317 No Dharak has a point. Wand is magic but a sword is slashing and poking. So is it magic and slashing? Lol
@@shazuzrqt7985 he is not using a wand but the sword is imbued with magic instead that's what i mean
His whole body is adapted to the magic, thats why his eyes turned red. I can't tell you more without spoilers
This show exceeded my expectations. Really good show to watch hope it doesn’t get cut after season 1
s2 already announced
If I had a nickel for every time someone has beaten the villain by saying the title of their series...
I wont lie Will can rock those red eyes.
THAT WAS EPIC. I haven't been this excited watching a fight scene since gear 5th
I had to collect my jaw of the floor... intense episode no kidding! what an ending. def top 3 of this season, along with ... actually the best of this season in its category (beside love romance anime type)!!

WAND AND SWORD!
Bro i really like this anime hope season 2
Truly this was our *check notes* Wistoria: Wand & Sword
Welp wasn’t expecting that…This felt like the final episode lol
I'm seeing a anime character with a burning sword coming from above and my first thought is: It's a final lesson.
I can feel hell in your words but also Moonlight.... Hello, My brother.
I did NOT expect a Honkai impact reference here, I respect it🫡
Himeko did not died for this 💀🙏
BRO’S EYES TURNED RED
Yep i noticed that too.
Had to go back and check his normal colour eyes.
Did they go red coz of ability or coz it was fire enchanment?
@@Jimmy-p9n That’s gonna be my theory: type of magic absorbed = eye colour change. They’re likely gonna explain that next episode.
That's ending was epic I screammm!!!😱🙀
Will has magic he’s like gon it’s been sealed since he was a kid it’s why he’s super fast and all that it leaks out sometimes but he’s strong
Love this. Btw what is the song playing?
Episode was so good like sheesh had to watch it twice 😂
Great anime Im always checking for new chapters and now we have go wait :(
Is it just me or is the quality of the clip lower than that of the actual episode?
Yes
Sometimes, they cut off parts from the original
HE IS THE WISTORIAS TO CONNECT THE SWORD TO THE WAND!!! :DDD
This scene and another that wont be animated till season 2 are why I ended up loving this series.
Shame the budget ran out towards the end. This show has looked very good
This anime backstory prequel is insane and season 2 is peak compared to season 1 we have seen nothing
