Season 1
Synopsis
Wise Man's Grandchild (2019), Season 1 — stream this isekai fantasy comedy online on iFILM across twelve episodes. A Japanese office worker dies and wakes up reborn into a world that runs on magic.
As a baby he's taken in by the famed hero Merlin and raised far from other people. By fifteen, Shin can out-cast almost anyone alive and has next to no grasp of how the world actually works. His grandfather packs him off to Earlsheid Magic Academy in the capital, which sets the season's engine running: Shin keeps shattering every expectation by accident. A study group forms around him, a war flares up with the Blusfia Empire, and demonoid attacks grow more frequent. Classroom routine turns into combat prep fast — a summer training camp, joint drills with the knight cadets, and the first real casualties at the front.
Animated by Silver Link from Tsuyoshi Yoshioka's light novels, the comedy runs on one gag: an unbeatable hero who blushes at a simple compliment. It suits anyone after a breezy overpowered-protagonist isekai with little real drama. Watch Wise Man's Grandchild Season 1 online on iFILM.
