Wistoria: Wand and Swordis a fantasy anime that has never been around for a couple of seasons. Fantasy animes are often associated with the isekai genre to the point that it has become overwhelming. However, the serieswill not remind you of the Rimuru Temptest (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime) or Natsuki Subaru (Re: Zero). Instead, theclassic and straightforward fantasy touch ofWistoriawill nostalgically give youBlack Clovervibes, where the strongest is not only the protagonist because side characters are also portrayed compellingly.
This new fantasy and shōnen anime centres on magical abilities and the main character’s incredible swordsmanship skills. Despite being surrounded by magic users, Will relentlessly catches up with the others. He is no overpowered main character. And with the results of the Grand Magical Festival and duels between characters, some have shown that in terms of abilities and skills, they indeed stand above the others.
10Wignall Lindor
Debuts Episode 1 Of The Anime
Wignall might not have engaged in intense combat like Julius, WIll, and Shion. However, this skilled elf mage ended up victorious during the Grand Magic Festival. Wignall is respected and known to be the second-strongest student at Regarden. There is no denying that he possesses powerful magic abilities, butin terms of combat, the elf mage may fall behind. Wignall uses fantasy and wind magic.
Wignall is a naturally gifted elf who also aims to be a Magia Vander, but unlike most, he cannot turn his magic into reality. However, Wignall can still outshine a lot of his peers by using Verdes Lana, allowing him to create a small tornado, and Zephros Claw, which creates a wind that can cut his opponents into pieces. Furthermore, when his self-doubts and low self-esteem are overcome,Wignall canmake his fantasy magic something that is no longer considered a harmless illusion.
9Sion Ulster
Sion has appeared plenty of times in the anime, constantly trying to bring Will Serfort down, much like a rival. As a powerful mage born from a noble family, the flame mage despises that Will, who is unable to use magic, can surpass him in terms of strength. However, Sion seeing Will defeat the Evil Sentinel as he saves him motivated him to mold his magic abilities even more, resulting inmastering fire magic.
Coming from a prestigious clan, Sion was born with flame magic that can dominate anyone. Sion can easily cast low-skills to mid-tier spells that help him when engaging in battle. However, his high-level magic, Iflamme Burdelyon, creates a magic blast that incinerates anything it touches. This high-level ability of Sion puts him ahead because, when used in combat, it is undeniably damaging. And based on his personality,considering Will as his rival will give him more reason to boost his own abilitiesas a mage.
8Lihanna Owenzaus
Lihanna claimed the top spot in her class at Regarden. Aiming to be the best knight, Lihanna does everything passionatelyto maintain her status as the best among her peers.She takes advantage of all the opportunities available to achieve her goal, including teaming up with Julius, Sion, Wignall, and Will. Lihanna holds the record of having the maximum number of credits score that a student can obtain at Regarden Magical Academy.
Lihanna wants to become a knight who can defend her allies and is someone they can rely on. Perfect scores don’t satisfy her because she constantly improves her magic skills as a high thunder mage. HerOwen Sique Lisolde Dua spell makes her move at the speed of lightning when attacking her opponents.Becoming the best knight is not impossible, as she can incredibly balance her talents and theoretical knowledge.
7Julius Reinberg
Julius embodies the typical narcissistic noble who constantly looks down on those he thinks are inferior to him. This personality is the very reason he lost during the Grand Magic Festival and why Will won against him. However, despite this character, Julius has the potential to become a Magia Vander. Even as a student,he can already cast an imperfect replica of Elfaira’s spellsthat shows his immense amount of magic.
He is one of the top 3 students at Regarden, and because of his magical abilities,he can outrank Lihanna and Wignall in terms of combat. Julius' mastery ofArs Weissallowed him to defeat most of his opponents during the Grand Magic Festival. This spell creates 8 clones of himself, which he can control and explode when they are near his enemies. HisXelunea Caulisspells greatly support him in defeating powerful monsters, especially during a dungeon quest.
6Will Serfort’s Sword Hinders Anyone Who Gets In His Way
Will is similar to Asta fromBlack Clover. He may be incapable of casting magic, buthis sword can parry all spells aimed to destroying him. Will wants to be a Magia Vander to protect Elfaria despite how impossible it seems. He strives to complete all dungeon quests and is able to elevate his strategizing skills through them. He has a superhuman strength no mage can ever achieve. Will also has the physique of a dwarf and incredible observational skills.
Upcoming Crunchyroll Anime is the Perfect Black Clover Replacement Every Fan Should Watch
Black Clover’s fans waiting for its new season should check out this upcoming Crunchyroll anime that promises to fill the void in the meantime.
Will’s determination toovercome all hurdles makes him braver than most. During the Grand Magic Festival, Will did not win, but he defeated his peers, Julius and Sion, who are top-ranked mages at the academy, at once. It might seem impossible in the eyes of the public for Will to become a Magia Vander; however, his abilities say otherwise. Will’s strength can defeat monsters; even extremely powerful mages cannot use only his remarkable tactics and sword.
5Edward Serfence
Edward might not be fond of Will, but there’s no denying that this strict professor is also a powerful mage. He can masterfully manipulate dark magic; however, it is not enough to get him to the Tower. Edward aimed to be a Magia Vander. Although he failed,he still became a notable professor at the academy.
Moreover, he can still outpower his opponents. His magic allows him toexhaust his enemy without chanting or moving an inch. Dax Darbican is considered low-level dark magic, but when cast by Edward, it shows how dangerous it can be. Will may have won the battle during their duel, but he didn’t win the war. Will’s effort only allowed him to land a single blow, and the strength Edward showed is surely not the extent of his potential as a mage.
4Ellenor Ljos Alf
Debuts Episode 3 Of The Anime
Wignall’s weakness is Ellenor’s strength. She is the most powerful fairy mage, making her the only Magia Vander from her clan. However, unlike Elfaira, Will’s strength even without magic, Ellenor is the opposite. She looks down on people who cannot cast magic.She is a gifted mage among all elves, possessing massive magic that helps her in helping the other Magia Vander in protecting the kingdom from Heavenly Invaders.
In terms of power, Ellenor’s ability to turn fantasy into reality is tremendously something to fear. And this ability of hers is a spell that she mastered at an early age. Wignall also holds Ellenor’s magical abilities in high regard. Like most of the Magia Vander, she can use her magic to teleport. However, what makes this Magia Vander unique is thatshe can cast another type of magic, which is ice magic. She might not be as skilled as Elfaira, but it is enough to prove her power as a mage.
3Cariott Incindia Wiseman
Debuts Episode 3 Of The anime
As one of the Magia Vander, Carriot’s skills are not to be questioned.His area of expertise lies in flame magic, similar to Sion. The Magia Vander is also not fond of Will but is not close to acknowledging him. Carriot is the head of the Fire Fanction. His title as one of the Magia Vander was achieved after reaching the dungeon’s 44th floor. If Sion has shown mastery of using flame magic, then Carriot can triple his skills as Magia Vander.
His role as a Magia Vander made him realize the lack of skilled mages who would help them protect themselves from the Heavenly Invaders' possible terrorization. Carriot has not yet engaged in any battle that features his skill; however, he did show his expertise by teleporting to the Tower’s meeting room by flame.
2Elfaria Albis Serfort
Elfaira is Will’s goal, his love interest, and his childhood friend. Even among the Magia Vander,Elfaira is considered a prodigy. Being the youngest mage in history to become a Magia Vander proves her legacy as a prodigy mage. She is highly regarded as the perfect image of ice magic. Elfaira is also meticulous when choosing skilled mages. Julius might have shown incredible skill, but Elfaira made it clear that someone who wields a sword is what she wants.
Elfaria has created numerous ice magic spells. Her earliest self-created spell was cast when she was only 2 years old. However, she is often called the “Embodiment of Laziness,” but not in the aspect of battles or defending people; she rises above her opponents. Her strength is shown when Zeo Thorzeus Reinbolt has no choice but to draw during their battle. Elfaria is on her way to becomingthe strongest mage in Wistoria.
1Zeo Thorzeus Reinbolt
He is the kind of mage that will intimidate anyone. Zeo is considered to bethe strongest among all current Magia Vander. He is an expert in the field of lightning magic. Similar to Carriot, he can cast his magic and use it to teleport. Zeo has very combative behavior, and he never gets tired of seeking more battles to showcase his power as a mage. He had reached the 48th floor of the dungeon all on his own.
Wrathbolt is the spell he specializes in most, where he enhances his physical features by releasing magical energy that surpasses even Elfaria’s casting. Also, he can cast a supreme grade spell, Vilgus Argo Thorzeus,that summons a powerful lighting minotaur carrying a battleaxe. In a fight that has yet to be featured in the anime, Zeo shows that he takes the lead when it comes to the strongest among all characters.His long list of battle experiences compliments his title as a Magia Vander, as well as the immense magic he holds as a mage.
