Synopsis

Sistine Fibel and her best friend Rumia Tingel are students at a prestigious magical academy, where Sistine hopes to be trained to learn about Sky Castle as per her grandfather's last wish. When her favorite instructor suddenly retired, his replacement Glenn Radars is anything but what Sistine had hoped for. The "Bastard Magic Instructor" (BMI) appears to be lazy, incompetent, and not that skilled at magic. He is not a certified teacher nor does he have a high rating in the guild. What they do not know is that he is hiding his power and that he is a former assassin from the Imperial Court Mage Corps with a remorseful past who is suffering severe depression. Later, there is an attack on the school by the previous instructor, and the BMI is forced to show his true powers. Sistine is baffled as she had misjudged him to being incompetent. As the BMI's students draw him out of his depression, he finds meaning in the activity of teaching. This whole season is complete with a promise for eventful things to come. Topics that are dealt with are depression, friendship, family relationships, adoption, siblings, following one's dream, quest for power and more.

Characters

Glenn Radars (グレン レーダス, Guren Rēdasu)
Voiced by: Sōma Saitō [5] (Japanese); Jessie James Grelle [6] (English)
Glenn is lazy, pervy and constantly bored by everything, with his primary focus being sleeping. He becomes the substitute teacher in Sistine's class, after the retirement of her favorite teacher. While he may seem incompetent, he is actually very skilled in magic, but not in the traditional sense. Glenn used to be as passionate about magic as Sistine, but became disillusioned by it due to his former partner Sara Silvers' death and his past as the infamous military assassin known as "The Fool." He developed his own type of magic, called "The Fool's World" which negates the activation of all magic within a certain radius, including his own. However, this does not nullify spells that have already been cast. While nullifying the enemies' magic he then beats them using superior hand-to-hand combat skills. He cannot use combat magic coherently due to it being far away from his area of expertise, but he has an in-depth understanding of the concept of all types of magic, which makes him a good instructor. This also places him in conflict with the traditional Professors who favor rote memorization. He seems to have feelings for Sistine, but has yet to confess to her.
Sistine Fibel (システィーナ フィーベル, Shisutīna Fīberu)
Voiced by: Akane Fujita [5] (Japanese); Rachael Messer [6] (English)
Sistine admires magic greatly and wishes to discover the secret of the Flying Castle, which no one knows. She maintains a strict, no-nonsense demeanor throughout, and often scolds Glenn for his lackadaisical attitude. She initially hates Glenn, believing him to be as incompetent as he looked due to his lack of enthusiasm. When he actually starts doing his job, however, she begrudgingly begins to respect Glenn as a highly effective teacher. Her personality and appearance resembles Sara Silvers, to whom Glenn was very close. As the series progresses, it seems as though Sistine has developed feelings for Glenn, but is too shy to speak of them. She is called "Sisti" by her sister Rumia, and "Punchie" (for her swift magical strikes) and "White Cat" (for her hair style) by Glenn.
Rumia Tingel (ルミア ティンジェル, Rumia Tinjeru)
Voiced by: Yume Miyamoto [5] (Japanese); Monica Rial [7] (English)
Rumia is Sistine's best friend and adopted sister. Sistine's parent adopted her after she was the sole survivor of an attack by evil mages. She is close to Glenn, who often treats her well, in contrast to the teasing that Sistine faces from him. Rumia's real identity is Princess Ermiana, the "cursed" princess who was supposed to have died three years ago. She remembered Glenn being the infamous assassin named "The Fool" who saved her life and that is why she is fond of him from the start. Rumia possesses a high level of spiritual essence as well as a unique ability known as Amplifier, which, as the name suggests, amplifies her spiritual essence.
Celica Arfonia (セリカ アルフォネア, Serika Arufonea)
Voiced by: Eri Kitamura [8] (Japanese); Morgan Garrett [6] (English)
Celica is an immortal mage and a professor at the academy. She adopted and apprenticed Glenn at a very young age and as such, she puts in a recommendation for him to be the substitute teacher despite his profile suggesting that he is unfit for the job. She forces Glenn to take the job against his will, hopeful that it may provide fulfillment to his life. She is a retired legendary Court Mage.
Albert Frazer (アルベルト フレイザー, Aruberuto Fureizā)
Voiced by: Hiroki Takahashi [8] (Japanese); Austin Tindle [7] (English)
A long-haired military magician with sharp eyes who is known as "The Star". He is partners with Re=L and another former colleague of Glenn, whose aid he occasionally enlists for military operations. He cares for his colleagues, but does not easily reveal or share these feelings out loud.
Re=L Rayford (リィエル レイフォード, Ryieru Reifōdo)
Voiced by: Ari Ozawa [8] (Japanese); Leah Clark [7] (English)
Re=L is a gluttonous girl with a stoic expression. She is known as "The Chariot", being highly skilled in creating giant swords through alchemy. She is an artificial human, a product of "Project: Revive Life", also known as "Project Re=L" which was led by Sion Rayford, the older brother of the girl from whom Re=L derives her appearance and memory. When Glenn and Albert shut the project down, they "adopted" her into the military. She did not know her true origins until later in the series. When she learns the truth and comes to accept it, she resolves to live on for Glenn's sake.
Elenoa Sharlet (エレノア゠シャーレット, Erenoa Shāretto)
Voiced by: Yōko Hikasa [8] (Japanese); Amanda Gish (English)
Voiced by: Sophie FRISON (French); Raquel Masuet (Portuguese)
Sara Silvers (セラ＝シルヴァース, Sera Shiruvāsu)
Voiced by: Minako Kotobuki [8] (Japanese); Alexis Tipton [6] (English)
Sara was a member of the Imperial Court Mage Corps and held position #3, "The Empress" and a former partner to Glenn Radars. Not much is known about her past. She was very close friends with Glenn, being his only reason to stay with the Imperial Mage Corps. She died due to an attack at the hands of Angel Dust addicts. According to Glenn, she was a cheerful and ebullient person, and very frequently noted to look like Glenn's student, Sistine. She was called "White Dog" by Glenn, much like how Sistine is called "White Cat".
Rito Librio (リト＝リブリオ, Rito Biron)
Voiced by: Takuto Yoshinaga (Japanese); Orion Pitts (English)
He is a student of Class 4 in the Alzano Imperial Magic Academy.

A heretic mage and former Imperial Court Mage Corps member with the title "The Justice." He was responsible for the death of Glenn's former partner, Sara after being killed by a resident afflicted by Angel Dust during a mission to apprehend Jatice for his insurrection.
Eve Ignite (イヴ＝イグナイト, Ivu Igunaito)
She is Glenn's superior and manager of the Imperial Mage Corps. In the past, she did not send reinforcements to Glenn and Sara, which in turn caused Sara's death. In the 7th volume, she met Glenn again and told him that she will show him that all of her opinions are right. Later she was saved by Glenn in the battle with Jatice and acts like a tsundere around him. In the 11th volume, she is an instructor and works together with Glenn. She shows some affection for Glenn, but tries to hide them.
Alicia VII (アリシア七世, Arishia Nana-sei)
Alicia III (アリシア三世, Arishia San-sei)
She is Alicia VII's ancestor and the new director of the school where Glenn, Celica and Eve work as instructors. She was the Queen of the Alzano Empire. She warns Glenn not to use the backyard library as a battlefield.

1"The Unmotivated Bastard"
"Yaruki no Nai Roku de Nashi" (Japanese: やる気のないロクでなし)		April 4, 2017 (2017-04-04)
Sistine Fibel and Rumia Tingel, are heading for the institution; the Alzano Imperial Magic Academy located in the town of Fejite, south of Alzano Empire, when a man speedily rushes towards the two girls as he was running late; causing Sistine to react by using magic to throw him into the fountain. Their original professor for Sistine and Rumia's class, Huey, suddenly did not show up, and the entire class was aware that there is a new substitute for the time being. The substitute teacher turned out to be the same person Sistine and Rumia encountered earlier; he sloppily introduces himself as Glenn Radars. He was placed there on a recommendation by one of Alzano's professors Celica Arfornia, despite objections from the academy's headmaster Halley, who is aware that Radars seemingly has no known background to be fit to teach their students, and he never has a teaching license, nor he has any ambition. In his first day of school as a temp, he starts their self-study session and immediately takes a nap. His arrogant and lazy behavior continued on through the next day, to the point a frustrated Sistine threw the glove at Glenn's face, and challenges him to a magic duel, to which Glenn accepts, on his condition that both he and Sistine uses Shock Volt. The latter fires first, and Glenn was immediately zapped. However, to their surprise, he stood himself up and unsuccessfully attempts to fire Shock Volt. Despite that Sistine clearly won the duel, Glenn continues to spew his absurd behavior and calls it a draw, leaving Sistine remarking that there is no hope for him.
2"Just the Slightest Bit of Motivation"
"Hon'no Wazukana Yaruki" (Japanese: ほんのわずかなやる気)		April 11, 2017 (2017-04-11)
The following day, Glenn's cocky and unmotivated behavior has not changed after the duel. Lynn asks Glenn about rune magic, but Sistine discourages her and offers to teach about magic instead. Upon being told that magic is served for a greater purpose, Glenn fires back, and openly states that magic is meant for murder. Feeling hurt by his response, Sistine slaps his face and storms out from the class in tears. Later, Rumia asked Glenn about his past life before becoming their substitute teacher. However, he stops short of the conversation before he could speak any further. Rumia then tells Glenn her reason for learning magic and why she is determined to help others is that she wanted to repay someone who had rescued her after she was kidnapped three years ago, and asks him to apologize to Sistine, as she is aware that magic is important for her after the passing of her late grandfather. The next morning, Glenn apologizes to Sistine after admitting he took it too far despite his hatred of magic, before he immediately goes on to criticize the entire class for not mastering Shock Volt, revealing that it was simply not powerful enough with their current chanting method. He then explains his students to think radically about the meaning of magic and their chants in order for the Shock Volt to be more effective, even he went as far as to cast Shock Volt with his own simple chant, and urging students to not use the magic textbook, thus the entire class slowly started to gain interest and respect for Glenn. The following day, terrorists belonging to the group Researchers of Divine Wisdom surround the academy with a magical barrier to keep others away and held students there hostage with their intention to find Rumia; who is revealed to be the former second princess of the Alzano Empire named Erumiana. Rumia turns herself in to prevent any harm on other students and while she is being taken by Reik, Jin forcibly pulled Sistine to the alchemy lab and was about to rape her, just as when Glenn appears in the last second. Using his own Original Magic; The Fool's World, which completely blocks all magic in a certain area, and his skillful hand-to-hand combat, he easily knocks the assailant out cold, leaving Sistine dumbfounded and even more frustrated.
