| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- A whooping 58 pages for the finale, the colour spread was dope. Ofc betrayal as soon as his work is done lol. Welp Macy joins the team too, now this will be more amusing. Also woah a hug from Noelle. That took me by surprise but it was sweet. Looking forward to season 2. |

| That Marchen or whatever is like a legendary creature. In Season 2, I hope we find out even more about them. Noel didn't hold back with her embrace :o |
 |
| What a random hug. We already have some glimpses of what will come in "season 2" of the manga. For a legendary creature, Cinderella sure fell anticlimactically. When Balgo got his pipe sword thingy I was like "hey, is that a Bleach reference?!", but in the end we didn't see much of it. I can't wait for the rest of Kubo's new story. |
 |
| Definitely looking forward to the Season 2 of this manga. The introduction of the Marchens were an interesting add to the story and how Balgo would play a major role in their extermination. The hug between Noel and Balgo was so precious! |

| I think this first season was a solid 7 or 7.5/10. Great art, interesting characters, world and concepts, but not quite enough to give it a very good or great rating. Definitely felt like a teaser of what’s to come and I’m looking forward to exploring this world more. The marchen, dark dragons and magic are all really cool. Lucky hug at the end there too. |
 |
| Cinderella looked majestic. But Billy taking it down was the most impressive thing so far in this manga. He must be secretly OP. That hug from Noel. That came out of nowhere. Good thing this is not the end of this series. Looking forward to part 2. |
 |
| Ok, Billy is the Urahara of BtW. Funny and quirky, but secretly very OP. I mean, the dude took out a legendary dragon with a finger from like a mile away, while 3 witches/wizzard (1 of them being a Captain or however they are called, can't remember rn) couldn't even scratch the thing. Also, a nice throwback with the "Aren't fairy tales just full of it?" line. Honestly, this season would have needed a bit more chapters IMO, the plot feels very fast-paced and the fight with the Marchen is kinda anti-climatic. Anyway, can't wait for S2 and I hope it would have much more than 4 chapters. |
 |
| I did not expect it to be Billy. Loved that Wholesome hug from Noelle |
| --AbiSa-- |
| The ending was a bit weird for me, but I guess it's okay. I loved the battle with Cindrella and am hoping to enjoy it further in the movie adaption. Looking forward to season 2. |
| weird seeing this "season 2" thing in a non-webtoon environment. i could get behind it being an end to an arc, but this way it seems a little weird |
 |
| There was way too much plot points thrown into this chapter. The pacing would have been better served is some of it was revealed earlier or not at all. It felt like the author started the story as if it was going to be a long running manga even though this was always known to be a limited series. The good news is that this story has enough good stuff in it that I'm still excited to see this continue in the next season. |
| Glad this will get a season 2. To the chapter - it was a satisfying conclusion. So Noel and Bargo may be a thing? She does care for him for sure. The way Cinderella was shot down was pretty funny. |
| God this series has been boring. |
 |
| Wanted poster for Balgo's head was lifted so Noel relieved that she don't need to see her friend dying decided to hug him Everyone: What a random hug. I think story needed like more chapters or (like I said in previous discussion) about 100 page chapter, but overall story was good. Good setup, interesting characters and goal for season two or maybe each session will be focused on one legendary dragon? Definitely seasonal option would help make more "condensed" story and author wouldn't be forced to work in weekly format with potentially unpredictable hiatuses. about Balgo and Noel: As the old Polish proverb says "I ship them". |

| Kubo seems to have crammed 20 chapters into 5 longish ones or 1 volume. I hoped the story would have a little more time to breathe, but it looks like Kubo is trying to create a world as big as Bleach with this manga, filled with lore, characters and stories, but at the same time, doesn't want to spend years and years drawing it, so he's packing as much as he can on the page, because of that the manga feels very rushed and is full of expository dialogue. Cinderella here might be like the Gillian in the beginning of Bleach, a big threat that later on we discover that isn't that big of a deal. |

| definitely need more expand. feels too rushed. |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| lots of Kido i mean magic summoning spells gong on and so the main enemies are this legendary dragons call Marchens eh Balgo can attract those Marchens so he is being kept alive as a bait it would have been cool to see Balgo use that magic sword though Balgo seems your typical weak character that has hidden superpowers all along and Noel x Balgo happened eh nice one |
| Gotta say, this was a pretty awesome chapter. A s2 is definitely needed, so I'm stoked for that. |
| 40% of this so far was infodump without much substance, very strange to call it season one or whatever. The best thing was Noel's deadpan personality but hardly worth to rate up the entire manga just because of it. |
| That was one hell of a finale with so many new characters. Looking forward to seeing more work from Kubo-sensei in Season 2. |
 |
| I must say, I loved it. That was atmospheric, grand, surprising, epic, just insane but somehow down to earth beautiful. The concept of the Märchen is great and I loved Cinderella's terrifying presence, but it's really sad how Elly clearly loved Macy and screamed after her, only for it to end like this where Elly wouldn't even recognize her anymore. So the Patchworks division guy who was never shown out of the Top of Horns took Elly's corpse and it seems there's a grander goal regarding the Märchen. I must say with Macy, Bruno, Ninny, Noel, Balgo, Wolfgang, Roy B, Sullivan, Harry Shayk, Billy Banks Jr., and the rest, this series had straight up top notch character designs off the walls, and the characters themselves just pop off surpisingly well and are fun to follow. |

| I really like the ideas behind Burn the Witch, I just think Kubo needs time to expand upon them. But now that season 2 has been announced, it may be safe to say that this could continue well into the future, giving Kubo time to fully realize this world and its characters. I was worried that Balgo wasn't going to be used, but we finally got a hint of what he's capable of. It almost looks like Excalibur comes out of that horn. It got the attention of the legendary dragon, so there has to be more to it. Hoping he gets a kickass transformation with armor or something. I can't help but think that Wing Bind may not be the "good guys" from what I could tell, Cinderella didn't necessarily feel evil. Could killing these legendary dragons be a mistake? And what about the Chief? He's apparently the son of a Hero? Finally, really happy to see Noel actually showing she cares about Balgo. It helps give her character some depth. Kubo has sewed quite a few seeds that could grow into really interesting plot points. Hopefully the success of BTW continues! |
HecticHooligan said: Loved every minute of this series. Did Balgos snot and tears go into the horn to make that sword lol? I loved his expression when it happened. I was really sad about ellie dying like that. I wanted her love for macy to overcome her nature, but I guess that would have gone against the intended message on fairy tales. Did anyone else realize macy was actually shown in the first chapter when Ninny gave the speech the first time? A reporter bumped into her. I love great foreshadoing like that.I don't think we've seen the last of Cinderella either. Im putting my money on animated corpse from a mad scientist at wing bind. Loved that macy is gonna live with Ninny now lol. And loved the hug with Balgo and Noel. So cute Yeah, and Macy said that Ellie loved eating fruits and vegetables, and if you pay attention when she bumped onto the dude in the first chapter she dropped a bag full of, you guessed it, fruits and vegetables. Same can be said about the moment when Macy found Elly, if you pay close attention, Balgo was actually right next to her. |
| Noel with the hug. The legendary dragon was super powerful. It was a good final. Waiting for Season 2. |
 |
| axed before it could even hatch into being. |

| I gave it a 6. I mean, I enjoyed reading it. I would've liked to have seen everything more fleshed out, but it was fine for a quick afternoon read. |

|
| Yeah, I know, Season 2 is coming. I'll probably change my rating after. |
| pretty cool Kubo stuff - always liked his artstyle and disliked what he had to do to his previous work. Hope he takes all the time he needs to create something awesome! I'll definitely pick up s2 when it drops |
