Mashle: Magic and Muscles season 2 episode 5, titled Finn Ames and the Friend, opened with Finn Ames walking into Carpaccio Luo-yang destroying another candidate's crystal. On realizing the overwhelming difference in their strengths, Finn decided to avoid Carpaccio altogether.

However, after Carpaccio Luo-yang located him, Finn tried his best to get away. It also saw Finn Ames using his personal magic "Changeas" for the first time in the anime.

Nevertheless, Carpaccio stopped him by using his Master Cane ability to inflict near-mortal damage on Finn, who endured all the damage to protect Mash's future.

Mashle: Magic and Muscles season 2 episode 5 saw Mash Burnedead arrive to rescue his friend Finn Ames.

However, he soon realized that every time he hit Carpaccio, he was the one getting injured. That's because Carpaccio had one of the 13 Master Cane wands. The wand activated a passive ability that protected Carpaccio from all forms of pain and inflicted the same on his opponent.

Nevertheless, Mash beat the Master Cane's ability by repeatedly punching Carpaccio, surpassing the Goddess Statue's limits. However, after the Goddess Statue began cracking, it evolved.

This time Mash made a tennis racked out of his metal wand and kept hitting the Goddess Statue itself, breaking the Master Cane ability. Right after, Mash flung the tennis racket at Carpaccio's head, making him feel pain for the first time in his life.
