Synopsis

Cursed by a witch, the feral and tempestuous Guideau tenaciously searches for the culprit so she can exact revenge. To this end, she joins the Order of Magical Resonance, an organization that deals with everything connected to magic. The Order agrees to work with Guideau in return for her help solving the myriad of magic-related cases occurring across the world.

The Order's suave and mysterious mage Ashaf accompanies Guideau for the sake of successfully completing missions. As the pair traverses the land in search of that unknown witch, their experience with the fantastical world of magic grows ever more peculiar the further they advance in their journey.

The show revoles around Ashraf and Guideau (mostly) and this world of witches and magic. There is an absolute ton of worldbuilding here and I feel we haven't even seen the surface of what's going on. I honestly can't remember a series (perhaps other than Magus Bride) with more immediate depth. Weirdly even the D&D and RPG loving sides of my brian got a kick out of this.

Our protagonists are what drew me in though, they're stylish and cool with an element of mystery. There's both an odd couple and buddy cop thing going on, with an element of hostility. Probably worth noting this isn't ...

Mixed Feelings
Watched it thinking it would be an great anime but then the story felt a bit blant towards the end. I liked the idea of witches put curses and they can be cured in multiple ways. However somehow the main character in the suit always seems to have the exact trick up his sleeve and pulls the solution rabbit out when he feels like it. Because of this it makes the story predictable that he find some solution to whatever problem popped up that day.

This results in a bit of mixed feelings. Animation looked great but the story is flat.

Overall - 6/10
A generic and bland anime with very little to let it stand out.

Story - 6
Episodes are split into 2-3 episode arcs with very little in terms of overall progression or character growth. Some of the individual stories have an interesting premise, but are let down by lackluster execution and bland characters.

Characters - 6
Overall generic characters with very little growth, and almost no depth. There is one somewhat interesting main character with some depth which is never explored, and some side characters who are interesting, but is let down by poor execution.

Animation - 6
For the most part it is fairly bland ...
