If one person is having a good 2020, it's Tite Kubo, author of both Bleach and Burn The Witch. Not only is Bleach coming back as an anime, letting them finish of the Thousand Year War, but Burn The Witch is both a manga and has an upcoming movie on top of that. It helps put him back in the spotlight after a small siesta away.

The movie feels like a test run for the series, putting out feelers on how popular it's going to be. Judging by the reception the first season of chapters got, you can expect thumbs up being given to the film as well. Here's everything you need to know before diving in.

10 Set In Same Universe As Bleach

Ichigo, Ruika and Noel

This is a given for anyone who's read the one-shot or is just a big fan of Bleach in general, but for newer fans who are just checking out the series this fall, it's worthy of noting. While there haven't been any cameos of yet, you have to expect it to crop up at some point, or Kubo wouldn't have bothered to entwine them. With how varied Noel and Ninny are, it'd be very interesting seeing them deal with someone like Rukia or Renji.

9 Crude Humor

This is mostly centered around one character, Balgo. For anyone who's watched Bleach, he's basically Kon, if he had a larger role in the storyline. He isn't just some bit player, and if the last chapter is any indication, he will have a major role in the story going forward. Thankfully, some of his perverted nature is toned down with season one of the manga, but he's completely over the top in the one-shot, obsessing over Noel's panties the entire time.

8 Female Leads

It's a rarity in anime that you get one with two female leads, especially with a Shounen. It's a genre that tends to be more of a power fantasy with male leads.

It's a nice change of pace to have one with not only Noel and Ninny as the central character but one that has a balanced cast, something Kubo has always been good at. He never ran into an issue that a Naruto did where his female cast was by and large useless for anything other than relationships in Boruto.

7 Odd Couple

Ninny and Noel are about as different as you can get from one another. One of them is a brash and loud-mouthed idol that feels heavily inspired by Hiyori of Bleach. Noel, on the other hand, is more calm, laid back, and doesn't really enjoy combat as much as Ninny does. Some call her a female Byakuya, but she doesn't have the same level of Kuchiki pride. Their interactions with one another are the highlight of the series, both playing off the other very well.

6 Not You're Typical Dragons

Burn The Witch doesn't utilize your typical fire breathing dragon that is either hoarding treasure or kidnapping princesses. No, dragons are more of an intricate part of life in Reverse London, representing transportation (broom buggies) and even energy used to power the city. It's a far more symbiotic relationship except for the Dark Dragons, who are a threat to the level of peace the two species have built between each other.

5 It Premiers October 2nd

It's a rather quick turnaround when you consider the first season of the manga finished up in the middle of September with its fourth chapter, yet, that material will be present in the film as you see Bruno Bangnyfe in the newest trailer dropped by Crunchyroll.

As he's a character that plays a large role in the 3rd and 4th chapters, you can expect it to cover all of the material laid out in the manga. That's always a good thing as no one likes filler content, even in films.

4 It Will Be Broken Into Three Episodes On Crunchyroll

As part of Crunchyroll's Fall lineup, Burn The Witch will be streamed as three broken up episodes, a bit of a strange call considering it's a film, but given the circumstances around the world right now, you can understand Crunchyroll wanting to drag it out a little bit. With how the manga is set up, it shouldn't be too hard to break it up either, using the one-shot for one episode, chapters 1-2 for the other, and 3-4 for the last.

3 It Covers All Of The Manga

It won't just handle the one-shot as many presumed it would when first announced, instead, covering everything we've seen in the manga thus far. That's a great thing as the manga helped expand the world greatly, especially with the introduction of the Top Of Horns, who seems to be the equivalent of captains from Tite Kubo's past work, Bleach. It also shows a great amount of depth to the world at large and expanding the main character's crew.

2 Less Action Than Bleach

That's not to say there isn't any at all, as the series has its fair share of fights. The battle in chapter 4 and part of chapter 3 is pretty great, giving you a taste of what's to come later on. The one-shot and the first two chapters are a bit slower, mostly because the characters aren't meant to be fighters. Both of them are Pipers, which are more the farmers of Wing Bind than anything else. Even when combat happens, it feels less dragged out than in Bleach.

1 Great Animation

Burn the Witch anime

The trailers give you enough of a glimpse to know the animation is going to look great for the movie. Everything looks very cleanly rendered, and the colors are so pronounced. You can see it with Ninny's green eyes here, as everything just pops out at you, none of the backgrounds being dulled or boring. All of the characters look very distinctive as well, something that, at times, can be a flaw with certain animation companies. It'll be interesting to see if the same studio does the TYBW arc for Bleach.
