Synopsis for Majo to Yajuu
Ashaf – A soft-spoken man with delicate features, a coffin strapped to his back, and an entourage of black ravens. Guideau - A wild and violent girl with long fangs and beast eyes. This ominous couple appears one day in a town enslaved by a witch, a ruler with magic that runs through her tattooed body and has convinced the townspeople that she is her hero. But Ashaf and Guideau know better. They live by a creed: "Where a witch goes, only curses and disasters follow." They have scores to settle, and they won't hesitate to take down anyone who gets in their way, be it an angry mob or an army garrison.
