Burn the Witch

As this three part anime series opens we are told that most disappearances in London are due to dragons. Most of the inhabitants can't see them though. There is also a second City of London; Reverse London. Here people are aware of the dragons and they are controlled by 'Wing Bind'. Protagonists Noel Niihashi and Ninny Spangcole are two witches who work for Wing Bind to protect the city.

I enjoyed this short series; it is just a pity it didn't have more episodes. The setting is good and the characters are fun to watch. The scenes of them battling against dragons were suitably exciting without being too scary for older children. The plot is simple enough but effective. The character designs aren't as polished as those in most series made these days but they had a distinctive look that I liked. The backgrounds looked impressive. Overall I'd recommend this to anime fans... if you don't enjoy it you won't waste much time.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

Finally, we see another anime adaptation of a Tite Kubo's manga. We again get to hear some stylish terms like 'imprisoned for 100 years'. Interesingly, the theme felt closer to Harry Potter or Black Clover than to Bleach. But yes, some of the elements would surely remind you of Bleach.

For a spin-off, the storyline looked interesting but the ending didn't feel satisfying. Cinderella and Macy deserved to have more interaction in the end. If only, the main characters, especially Ninny, were shown less pessimist. It ended up looking like a literary work from the Baroque time period. Even the Balgo's sword had no significance at all in the end. Noel's character design reminded me of Orihime's. Nevertheless, her personality was entirely different and felt even more-likeable. Midway, I started expecting some Yuri as well. But well, it never really surfaced.

Overall, it wasn't a bad watch. If only the things were resolved in a more appropriate way. Nevertheless, you can still enjoy it and have a good weekend.

I wasn't expecting anything coming into this show, and I have to say I am blown away. The premise of the show is done extremely well, and left so much room not only to grow but there could easily be several seasons if they wanted to. The characters are great each one clearly had been spend a lot of time on, the story was engaging (don't want to spoil), and the animation was top notch, seriously it was done so well. I highly recommend this show because it is very entertaining and I hope we get to see more from this amazing universe so support it!

The animation is really tasty & top notch, characters are loveable & the story is very intriguing would very much like a continued series if the manga gets more content.

Finally more female anime, I have been looking for more badass female protagonists and fighting scenes. I also love the animation drawing it's self. I hope this can become a show. I really did enjoy Bleach, was pretty sad it was canceled.
