BURN THE WITCH is the third manga from Tite Kubo.The series takes place in London and follows two witches, Noel Niihashi and Ninny Spangcole, who work for an organization named Wing Bind, which fights against malicious dragons that threaten the human populace. Things get complicated when a human named Balgo, whom Noel is acquainted with, ends up the target of a dragon attack.The manga started as a one-shot in 2018. On March 20, 2020, in a livestream that also announced the anime adaptation of Bleach's "Thousand Year Blood War" arc, it was mentioned that the manga would receive a theatrical anime short by Studio Colorido, which aired October 2, 2020 and is available to stream as a three-episode miniseries on Crunchyroll. The series began serialization in Shonen Jump as a limited series on August 23 of the same year with an upcoming second "season."The one-shot can be read for free on Viz's website. Has nothing to do with the trope Burn the Witch!... we think.

Dead All Along: The dragon that took on Selby's form reveals that he died when Balgo and he were little, the former pushing the latter out of the way of an incoming train and getting hit in the process. The dragon's been in his form ever since.

"I Know You Are in There Somewhere" Fight: Balgo tries to appeal to Selby, when he reveals he's a dragon, that his friend is still in there since Selby didn't try to attack him earlier. But the dragon tells him the Selby he knew is long dead before proceeding to try and kill Nini and him. In the anime, Macy tries to appeal to Elly/Cinderella based on their previous friendship, but Elly ignores her and attacks.

Tomboy and Girly Girl: Noei and Ninny share this dynamic. Noel is reserved and polite, even stating she likes her dress uniform at the start of the pilot. Nini is brash, rude and can't seem to talk to without yelling at someone.

comment
Red Skies Crossover: Burn the Witch! is set in the same universe as Bleach according to Tite Kubo: Reverse London is the British equivalent of the Soul Society. The only actual reference to this is a sign in the anime adaptation saying "Soul Society West Branch" which has just been repaired—and is then inadvertently blown up by Noel while she's chasing Balgo and Oshushi after the latter said he wanted to see her panties.

comment
Voodoo Shark: The reveal that the story's setting is the Western Branch of the Soul Society, meaning it takes place in Bleach's universe. While this answers the question of why the afterlife seen in Bleach is predominantly, if not entirely, Japanese, as well as implying that there's other branches we don't know about, it raises the question of why none of the other branches got involved in the Karakura Town or Blood War conflicts, since both of these could have resulted in the world of the living being completely destroyed.

Meaningful Echo: Nini delivers her "Fairy tales are such bullshit" speech twice in the series. The first time's an internal monologue at the start. The second time, it's spoken to Macy at the climax.

Draconic Abomination: While many of the Dragons are bizarre creatures, Dark Dragons — regular Dragons corrupted by negative emotions — tend to be monstrous abominations. Special mention goes to Selby, who has multiple arms, tentacles for legs, and the ability to unravel his head into a corkscrew-shaped mouth.

Stealth Sequel: At the end of the one shot, we're shown a sign that reads "Soul Society: West Branch" revealing this series takes place in the same universe as Bleach. This is hidden even in it's stylized title.note Using a fourth of the stylized T in THE and using the middle part of the W in which along with the slash in it as an A, you can spell out BLEACH.

Our Dragons Are Different
 Burn The Witch (2018) (Manga) / int_d88e125e
comment
Our Dragons Are Different: Dragons in the series are very different than the usual fare, mostly being used in the world for things like electricity, food, minerals, etc and having very various oddball forms to boot. But then you have dark dragons that feed off negativity and become a danger to humans. The ones seen in the one-shot are morphers which can take on a form to hide in the human world. In this case, Balgo's puppy, Oshushi and his best friend, Selby. We later learn of the existence of the seven original Dark Dragons known as "Märchen" and code-named after fairy tales.

Pervert Revenge Mode: Noel is not pleased when Balgo keeps trying to see her panties, and is prone to throttling him when he keeps asking. Even moreso when Oshushi, having absorbed these negative feelings, keeps parroting it out loud for all to hear. The one-shot ends with her chasing down Oshushi and Balgo because of it.
