Burn the Witch

Noel Niihashi and Ninny Spangcole are witch and protection agents for Wing Bind an organization for dragon conservation and management. Their mission is to protect and manage the dragons within London on behalf of the people.

I thought this was a really good spin off series which is set in the same universe as bleach. The characters are refreshing, the story is refreshing and it was just top notch.

As this is only a spin off I don't think you need to watch bleach to under although I am not sure when does it take place in series.

Still though I would recommend checking this out even if you aren't into bleach.

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.

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 will admit I am not the biggest fan of Bleach. I never have kept up with the series so I was unsure when I was watching this how lost I would be. My worries were swept away once I started watching it because this has nothing to do with the Bleach universe. I have to admit you should probably read the manha first before you engage with this anime because you will be kind of lost if you don't Back to the point, I enjoyed Burn the Witch because although the story is not deep and intriguing like I would want it to, it's still an good anime. The reasons that the anime worked for me were the dramatic moments of the show did a good job in telling a story, character development wasn't the best but it did its job in the end, the art style during the whole show is absolutely beautiful, and the comedy/funny moments are on point. A final thing is that if you are looking at this anime hoping for anything from Bleach then I suggest you don't watch it because you will be disappointed and you won't like it as a spinoff. Other than that I would recommend it just so you can listen to the ending theme because it really is a good listen from NiL.
