Ancient Magus Bride Season 2 Part 2 Premiere Mini-Review
Ancient Magus Bride Season 2 Part 2 Episode One is titled “Nothing venture, nothing have. I” and was released on October 5, 2023, and will have 12 episodes.
Here’s the trailer, in case you missed it.
In this episode, we delve further into the College Arc, if you recall, the college is an organization that teaches students more about the supernatural world and preserves sorcery.
It’s located beneath London, this sort of gives off Harry Potter vibes. Here, the College goes into lockdown as someone lurks in the darkness who is sapping magic, and a Grimoire is missing.
The students are frightened as they might have also sealed the perpetrator inside with them. So, to prepare the students to defend themselves, Fabio Zaccheroni is assigned to them. It kind of sounds like Zucchini Macaroni.
However, there’s a catch, he tests the students’ abilities and trains them in combat without using magic, as the perpetrator would suck it out from them, so obviously it would be wise to avoid using magic.
It is awesome as they get to use weapons to protect themselves. Chise seems to be pretty adept at physical combat naturally and even duels our man Zaccheroni until Professor Wachhman has to put a stop to it.
Everyone is in awe at her abilities; on the other hand, Philomena can’t keep up with things and faints.
Is it worth watching?
Ancient Magus’s Bride Season 2 Part 2 is definitely worth watching as it delves into some darker themes, and the element of mystery has had me at the edge of my seat.
The whole setting in the college and some evil lurking in the darkness has me allured to it, it gives off Harry Potter vibes to me, which I’m a big fan of.
If you are into fantasy, sorcery, Grimoires, etc., then it’s the perfect show to binge-watch.
