Season 1 Recap
Wistoria: Wand and Sword made its debut in the Summer 2024 anime season, quickly gaining attention for its unique premise and action-packed storyline.
The series follows Will Serfort, a student at the prestigious Regarden Magical Academy who, despite lacking magical abilities, excels in swordsmanship. Throughout the first season, viewers watched Will face numerous challenges, from bullying classmates to ferocious monsters, as he strived to fulfill a promise made to his childhood friend.
What to Expect
The season finale introduced a new character named Finn, who seems to have taken a particular interest in Will’s swordsmanship. This development, along with the teaser’s glimpses of new threats, suggests that Season 2 will delve deeper into the world’s magical system and the divide between magic users and non-magic users.
Production Details

The anime adaptation is directed by Tatsuya Yoshihara, with character designs by Sakaya Ono and music composed by Yuki Hayashi. The series is animated by Actas and Bandai Namco Pictures.
