Recap of the previous episode
This 2025 winter anime starts this episode with a flashback of Shion's previous life when he was in Japan when turning thirty years old and his fascination for magic and knowledge. That flashback highlights how he was obsessed with the idea of magic to make his life more exciting, only for him to die from a heart attack, which is what brought him to the current reality.
The middle portion of the episode focuses on the idea of Shion trying to understand how magic works in this world and realizes that this could be connected to emotions since his energy starts to appear when he expresses positive feelings toward his sister Marie. That is when he begins to train with his energy until reaching a degree of control and managing to concentrate it on his hand.
The final portion of the episode focuses on Shion getting trained in swordsmanship alongside Marie and Rose, showcasing the series' comedic angles. The cliffhanger occurs when the family goes to Istoria, a nearby town, and begins shopping. The episode ends as Shion realizes there is a store that sells fairies.
What to expect from Magic Maker episode 3?
Magic Maker episode 3 is bound to continue with this isekai anime and the idea of how Shion is going to develop the concept of magic in a world that doesn't seem to be aware of it. Moreover, the last episode ended with the cliffhanger that was the store that sells fairies, so it's very likely that the next one is going to address this issue since Shion is driven by curiosity.
