El Cazador de la Bruja: The Complete Series

You gotta watch this one and find out about the two who become the best of friends and allies!

Yes sir. A great reality-based occult sci-fi series.("ANIME: Storytelling at its best")

This is the first anime I have purchased, and this review is of the packaging and extras. I viewed the entire show on a streaming video site, so I already knew I loved it and wanted to buy it. It's slow, and focuses on character relationships over action, and won't be to everyone's taste, so I recommend watching at least some of it online to see if you like it. Also, I would not rate the series TV-MA like some listings do; it has some language and violence (no sex, a few shots of non-sexual nudity from behind) but not more than a PG-13 movie.The show comes with 4 discs in a single DVD-sized case so it doesn't take up much room. I liked the cover art.It contains both dubbed and subbed versions, so you can pick whichever you prefer.One thing I wish was included was a set of word-for-word subtitles of the English translation (because the Japanese-translation subtitles don't always match up with the dubbing). I later learned that most anime releases do not include English CC.Not a whole lot in the way of special features: Episode 1 and 24 have a commentary track, and there are textless songs. The trailers are listed as a special feature, but personally I just wish there was a way to skip them at the beginning of each disc.Finally there is a funny blurb on the back of the case: "As fun and dirt-filled as you could want" - Carl Kimlinger. Yep, Carl, I think that about sums it up.So it ain't perfect, but the price I got here at Amazon (under thirty dollars) was reasonable, especially for a show I plan to watch repeatedly. Tacos tacos tacos, super tasty tacos...

El Cazador de la Bruja is not necessarily on the top part of my list of best anime but it is very good. I really liked the “western” feel even though it’s modern and not a “western” but it still has a very unique feel to it cause sure there are other girls with guns animes but how many are in Mexico and have this type of atmosphere(any anime really not just girls with guns). This one has a fantastic character pool as well with great voice acting and personalities. Nadie is my favorite female character of any anime I’ve seen. She was just done perfectly to me and has a very well balanced character. She is a bounty hunter and a tough girl but they give her a feminism at the same time, she’s serious when needed to be but does joke and have sarcasm at times, she gets angry when appropriate but doesn’t have overreacted breakdowns like animes are prone to doing, she gets sad but again it’s not overdramatized to invoke forced emotions. She has the respect of being tough but again isn’t manly and vulgar like a Revy. Nadie is also just very likeable and the voice actor fit her perfectly. She was drawn perfectly and came across as a normal person which is very hard to come by in animes cause they are fixated on focusing on the eccentric and odd, characters like Ellis. That being said and without giving away any spoilers it does make sense for Ellis to be that way, and I loved Ellis as well and thought her and Nadie really meshed well. There dynamic and there dialog especially in relaxed situations was funny/sweet/cute in an appropriate way without making not feel like an action anime. Nadie and Ellis had a very strong sister like relationship and it was enjoyable watching their relationship develop. Then there is Ricardo and Lirio who were fabulous. As they become more prominent figures as the series progresses and Ricardo is awesome, and Lirio is just cute. The animation while I’m sure there are people who say it’s not good, is in my opinion amazing. First off it’s not sword art online computer style beauty that is flawless, but it is traditional animation with beautiful scenery, fluid character movements, and great character designs. If you don’t like traditional animation and prefer new style anime with brilliant colors, shiny backgrounds, and obvious computer assisted animation then perhaps you won’t like the animation here but I like both and actually prefer anime that you can tell things were actually drawn as opposed to just animating it on a computer. So to me I think the animation is outstanding. Really the thing that hurts it the most and it was ok to me but the story isn’t exactly the best. It starts out really good and gets better as it goes until you start getting to the fantasy stuff and that’s mainly for me because it’s hard for me to go from a this feels realistic to a sudden this is extreme fantasy. But that definitely didn’t ruin it for me. There also never was any good explanation about Rosenberg and his goals. That being said just being there along for the ride was really enjoyable. As far as rating goes I think on the back it’s rated Mature. I think that’s a little aggressive especially considering other anime that is TV14. The violence really isn’t too bad with little blood, there is bad language with several “bi***” and “ba*****” and 1-2 uses of “s***”, and then there are 3 scenes of nudity from behind not in a sexual way but not necessary, and some scenes where people are naked with everything obscured.

OK, this is a rather fun series to binge watch that has some serious moments flavored with bits of comedy. Are some of the resolutions to their situations a bit simple. Of course, but there's just so much they could do in each 24-minute episode. All 26 episodes of the series are here, and even though the final solution in the series was satisfying enough, it left me wanting more, which is always a good rule of thumb; always end a show with people wanting more, rather than the show wearing out its welcome as sometimes happens with a lot of shows.

I happened upon this little gem while on Netflix and I'm so glad I didn't miss it. This show is certainly one that fans of shows like Noir and Madlax then El Cazador de la Bruja is a must have.The story centers around Nadie and Ellis as they make their way through the Mexican back roads and deserts all while evading capture from CIA and trying to discover the secrets of Ellis's past. With a wild mixture of gunfights, comedic set backs, and endearing moments this show will be a great addition to both Anime collectors and those just started.Without getting into the story too deep you will Follow Nadie and Ellis from their first, er...unique first meeting. Ellis is a young (and strange) girl who has been living with her grandmother until Nadie (ace bounty hunter and pretty young spit fire) comes to collect Ellis's bounty, or so she says. While actually working for a secret organization to help escort Ellis south, Nadie must fight off bandits, secret agents, and a rather persistent stalker all while trying to deal with Ellis's little episodes of crazy magic and flashbacks.Will Nadie and Ellis find out Ellis's past? What is the involvement of the Witches? Can Nadie and Ellis make it to their destination in one piece while it seems the world is against them? What is Amigo Tacos? If you want to know the answers your just gonna pick up a copy for yourself.

Anime is great...amazon packers USE A BOX... it's like shipping a phone in a bag and expecting it to arrive not broken..

I liked the anime.Main characters were all very pretty and well drawn.Good story.

very good

日本タイトル『エル・カザド』。リージョンは、ケースとディスクに《NTSC-1,2,4-》と記されているので、普通に国内版プレイヤーで再生出来ます（日本のリージョンは2）。なお、私の再生環境は、日本国内版SONYの2015年以降製造最廉価プレイヤー『BDP-S1500』）です。オカルトとＳＦが絶妙に組み込まれたガンアクションもので、ボーイミーツガールから始まる物語のところを、ガールミーツガールから始まる物語になっています。一応、ガールを導くべきボーイも出て来るのですが、ガール同士の絆を崩すまでに至らなかったのが、自分的には新鮮で楽しめました。その為、男＆女のイチャイチャ展開に飽き飽きな方にお勧めの作品です。加えて、物語の本筋が綺麗に締めくくられますし、その後のエピローグなども綺麗に作られているので、全て鑑賞し終わった後は、モヤモヤとした消化不良感などもありません。少々古い作品ですが、お安く見れるならば、感謝出来るレベルの一作。

this is a hilarious series lol
