Studio Actas and Bandai Namco Pictures are animating Wistoria: Wand and Sword, with Tatsuya Yoshihara as the director. In a recent interview with us, the show’s producer Katsuki Aoyama praised the staff as the “greatest to ever assemble.” You can watch the trailer for the anime below.
The anime is based on the manga written by Fujino Omori (also the author of Danmachi) and illustrated by Toshi Aoi. The series began publication in Bessatsu Shonen Magazine on December 9, 2020, and has since published 10 volumes. Kodansha USA licensed it in English, while Crunchyroll is streaming the anime adaptation. They describe the story:
A hard-working boy named Will enters a magic academy in hopes of becoming a great sorcerer. Unfortunately, there’s a fatal flaw in his plan: he lacks the ability to use magic. Amid the cold stares of his classmates and instructors, Will feels discouraged at times, but he presses forward with unwavering determination. He can’t use a wand, but he can wield a sword in his battle to reach the top of a magic-dominated world. He just needs to believe in his own unique strengths and remember the promise he made with someone precious to him…
