As of 2022, with over 130 million copies in circulation around the world, the anime has become the seventh best-selling series of all time in Weekly Shōnen Jump. The series concluded the first half of the series with The Lost Substitute Shinigami arc in March 2012.Finally, after a 10-year-long hiatus, the anime returned with the Thousand-year Blood War arc, the series' final arc. Fans who anticipated Bleach’s return are immensely excited.

The story follows Nini Spangcole and Noel Niihashi working as Witches for Wing Bind in Reverse London, a place in the mirror dimension that ordinary people don’t know about.

Dragons can easily absorb human emotions, which is why the world could be endangered if they managed to enter the human world. By absorbing negative human emotions, these creatures can turn into Dark Dragons and could wreak havoc.Nini and Noel, two exceptional Witches, are tasked with looking after a boy named Balgo Ywain Parks, whose strange connection with Dragons unleashes a Dark Dragon in the city.Similarities between Burn the Witch and BleachIchigo_m@bleach_fan20If you check the sasakibe's biography, when he was young the most of his missions in human world were in the west countries especially in england Maybe this is the reason that witches in Burn The Witch manga knew the shinigamis and their caste was called soul society west branch4710If you check the sasakibe's biography, when he was young the most of his missions in human world were in the west countries especially in england Maybe this is the reason that witches in Burn The Witch manga knew the shinigamis and their caste was called soul society west branch https://t.co/fOUcYUhAAmThere have been no references regarding the Soul Society West Branch in Bleach. However, on page 22 of the Burn the Witch one-shot chapter, Ninny mentions their counterparts in Japan (Gotei 13) simply killing all of their Dragons to contrast how the Wing Bind organization handles the Dragons in London. This shows that West Branch is aware of the East.Unlike Shinigamis, the West Branch of Soul Society houses Wizards and Witches. Like Gotei 13 or the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, the Wing Bind comprises eight divisions: The Gallows, Inks, Pipers, Sabres, Sacreds, Anthems, Patchworks, and Billionaires. The leaders of each division are addressed as Directors.🌿 Faelia 🌱@JustFaeliaFinally got around to watching that little 3 ep anime Burn the Witch, it was so cuuute I want so much more of it Tite Kubo plzIts canonically set in the same world as Bleach & shows they’re a part of the Soul Society, but I really liked this little Easter egg at the end hehe11Finally got around to watching that little 3 ep anime Burn the Witch, it was so cuuute I want so much more of it 😭 Tite Kubo plzIts canonically set in the same world as Bleach & shows they’re a part of the Soul Society, but I really liked this little Easter egg at the end hehe https://t.co/PzNVsqm8tcWitches and Wizards use Magic abilities that are somewhat similar to the Kido spells. The two primary protagonists of Burn the Witch, Nini and Noel, are in the Piper division and carry a gun-like device called the Witch Kit to channel their Magical abilities. Though the Saber division didn’t showcase their abilities, they were seen carrying swords, much like Shinigamis.To showcase the connection between Bleach and Burn the Witch, Tite Kubo illustrated a title card for the latter in which the former’s title is mentioned. Though the Thousand-Year Blood War doesn’t include characters from Burn the Witch, fans can expect to see a new series in which the Wing Binds will cross paths with the Gotei 13.Be sure to keep up with all anime, manga, film, and live-action news as 2022 progresses.
