Good evening all, thanks for stopping by and checking this awesome series out with me.
I accidentally stumbled across Wistoria: Wand and Sword on Crunchyroll after finishing Overlord's last season. I will say it was a good series in parts, just seemed to become confused about what it wanted to be in the end.
Now Wistoria has been a great series from the get-go.
The story starts with Humanity having been oppressed by a mysterious foe, known as the Celestial Hosts. Five of the best Mages from Humanity joined together to defeat their Celestial foes. After their win, the fear was that the foe would return at a later time to destroy Humanity.
The Magia Vander, the 5 most powerful mages, built a magical dome and a tall tower to contain their foes.
Since its creation, the five strongest mages from every generation have then been tasked with monitoring the barrier from atop the mighty Wizard's tower.

In comes Will Serfort, a sixth-year student at the Regarden Magic Academy. Will has a dream, to meet up with his childhood friend Elfaria Albis Serfort, who ascended to the Magia Vander 5 years ago due to her unrivaled magical abilities.
For Will, this has been a bit of a struggle. For Will has no magical ability at all! Much to the annoyance of his Teachers and fellow Students
However, Will possesses an exceptional physique that he uses to his advantage to the fullest, with his trusty sword and a handful of magical items that his roommate Rosti creates. Will uses these items to help him overcome his lack of magical abilities.
Now we get onto the soundtrack, and what an opening song to kick the series off with!
Penguin Research with the song Fire and Fear. The opening seconds of this song are so fitting to this series and the voice of the lead is stunning. A really good vocal range. Bloody love it!
Next up we have the closing theme song. Frozen by True.
Another great song that fits the mood of this series.
A great set of songs for this series. I really hope a new series is coming soon as the series is amazing!
