You can also see the preview images and synopsis for Season 2 Episode 6 “The First Bloom” below.
At last, Will sets foot in the tower where Elfaria awaits. His excitement at the Colorless Garden, a town that spreads across the first floor, is short-lived. So begins the Bloom, a ritual in which color blessings from each faction in the tower are awarded. For Sion, Colette, Lihanna, and Wignall, who were all scouted while they were in school, their Colorless Gloria turn the color of their respective factions. Those of Will and Julius, who weren’t scouted, remain without color. Will and the others learn the truth—that those who are not affiliated with a faction will spend their lives as cogs in the machine supporting the tower.

The anime is based on the manga written by Fujino Omori (also the author of Danmachi) and illustrated by Toshi Aoi. It has been serialized in Kodansha’s Bessatsu Shonen Magazine since December 9, 2020, with 15 published volumes so far. It surpassed 3 million copies in February 2026. Kodansha USA licensed it in English, while Crunchyroll is streaming the anime adaptation.
The story follows the ‘talent-less’ Will Serfort, a mage without magic attending a magic academy with the hope of becoming a Magia Vander, one of the world’s top mages. He needs to accomplish that to reunite with his prodigious childhood friend, Elfaria, and he has to face severe lack of respect from most of his fellow classmates. However, he is determined and slowly wins people over, showing that hard work and perseverance can get him far.
