This anime is tight! Okay so Witchblade was a comic from TopCow and did several crossovers (Witchblade/wonder woman, Witchblade/Alien/Predator, Witchblade/Medievil Spawn, Witchblade/Vampirella) and a long 100+ issue comic 'Witchblade' feat Sarah Pazzini (which is the dullest!) the cool thing is Witchblade is not a superhero but an artifact. Some superheros draw their energy from an artifact (iron man) yet beholding the witchblade makes you a superhero. But my interpretation is that the Witchblade is the super hero you want to find the history too, not just the many Woman whom have, do, or will come to possess it. By the way, the witchblade can only attach itself to women and only those chosen to possess it by the Witchblade itself. It flutters itself through history. There are some really excellent Witchblade comics out there so it was my intention to watch this japanimation! I liked the first 3 episodes that came on DVD. Very well presented, good details, colouring, voice overs, story arch. It's your typical well executed Anime. So yesterday I paid out for the full 6 seasons and I am getting 13 hours and 5 minutes of sweet, fast, and sexy action. Now you might want to nickname me Nottingham for being such an avid fan, but just its something I am stuck into. Expecting they pull in the right director for the feature film expected this year. Hell pay me the money and I'll do it :D
