The Witch and the Beast
魔女と野獣
A man and a girl with beastly eyes search for a witch to undo her curse, but their journey is fraught with danger and unexpected alliances.
It all started with the 17 "Origins," whose powers were passed down to individuals who still exist around the world today. A man carrying a coffin and a girl with the eyes of a beast appear in a town. The girl was once cursed by a witch and now searches for her in order to undo the curse. Is the witch who appears before them the quarry they've been searching for? And how can the curse be undone? This quest for revenge against an evil witch begins rolling when the beast captures the witch. This magnificent and intense dark fantasy begins now! (Source: Crunchyroll)
