Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor

Akashic Records of Bastard Magic Instructor is a twelve-episode action fantasy comedy that aired in spring 2017. The series follows Glenn, a lazy magic instructor who would rather sleep than teach, and his students at a magical academy—particularly Sistine, who becomes determined to prove her teacher's abilities after challenging him to a duel. Despite his reputation for slacking off, Glenn demonstrates genuine commitment to protecting his students when genuine danger emerges.

The show completed its run as a finished series with a full twelve-episode season. It balances humor with action sequences, using Glenn's lackadaisical teaching methods as a running gag while developing the darker stakes that emerge as the story progresses. Fans of fantasy school settings with comedic leads who hide competence behind an irresponsible facade will find familiar ground here.

If you watched this series during its original spring 2017 broadcast or have heard the title mentioned in anime communities, you can now find the complete story in one contained season.
