In a previous life, Lloyd spent every waking moment obsessed with magic but never had the talent for it — then he died and got reincarnated as a prince with basically unlimited mana. The catch? He's the seventh prince, meaning he's so far down the line of succession that nobody cares what he does. Which is exactly what he wanted. This 12-episode TV series from 2024 follows young Lloyd as he finally gets to dig into every branch of magic he was locked out of before, from summoning to ancient forbidden spells, all with the enthusiasm of someone who's been waiting a lifetime (literally) for this moment. Early on he stumbles into a forbidden library and accidentally awakens a demon named Grimoire, which sets the tone for the whole show — Lloyd's reckless curiosity keeps dragging him into situations way above his pay grade, but his absurd magical power means he handles them with a kind of casual ease that's genuinely fun to watch. His maid Sylpha tries to keep him grounded while also teaching him swordplay, and their dynamic adds a nice layer of warmth to the action. The magic system is surprisingly detailed, which keeps things from feeling repetitive. If you enjoyed the isekai power fantasy side of Mushoku Tensei or the laid-back overpowered vibes of Kenja no Mago, this hits a similar groove. It's lighter than Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken but shares that same "let me just enjoy being ridiculously strong" energy. Good comfort watch with solid animation from Tsumugi Akita Animation Lab.
This season covers Chapters 1-74 of the manga. Continue reading from Chapter 75.
Verified RatingBruh, THAT WAS SO ANTICLIMACTIC! Was that magic just a bubble, LMAO? Kidding aside, I am extremely happy with how this series has ended. I especially love how impactful Jade was even though he wasn’t actually present anymore. It was a shame to lose such a charismatic character. That said, what I love the most here is the bond between Lloyd and Albert. I simply love how strong their relationship is.
Verified RatingSheesh! Lloyd’s aura when he casually sat was simply PEAK! That said, I am loving the visuals in this episode. The chibis are a nice touch to the heavy action that had been going on for quite a bit now.
Verified RatingGalilea… shut up, bro! Your words are making it worse, LMAO! I can’t help but laugh at how no one was buying the assassins’ acting. I can totally say that they didn't cook that well. That said, this episode is such an epic one. I’m in awe of how beautiful Sylpha’s form is. Her attack is simple, yet beautiful. But of all her attacks, perhaps the hug was the most powerful one. That was so CUTE!
