What are peoples thoughts on this?
I have read about 3 novels on it and fell in love with the art and atmosphere it gives off.
Basically it involves a girl,who carries the "sight" as they call it and unlimited power, and she becomes a Mages apprentice. The mage, the guy with ram head, is one of the very few mages in the world. I haven't read enough to really go into detail much about it. But theres 3 sides, Magic, Alchemy, and Fae.

Magic
"Magic is the result of either using the energy inside one's body, which can be generated or absorbed through sleep and food, or by borrowing power from Faeries, Spirits, and Demons in order to interfere, or outright break, the world's natural laws in order to get the results they want; this is a process that is sometimes called a miracle. While these magical users can access the world's natural laws with the help of magical beings and through sheer force of will, it's easier to perform with the help of chants and wands"

They use chants and visualization to kind of get what they desire. Its weird how they describe that they break "natural laws" but its a fiction book, what do you expect. I think it could mean that they go beyond whats perceived "normally" to achieve what they desire
Alchemy
Those who study and perform Alchemy is known as Alchemists. An Alchemist doesn't interfere with Natural Laws by breaking them, but instead, they study these laws and learn to manipulate them in order to achieve their desired result.[5] As Alchemists aren't born with Magic in the form of magical energies inside their bodies, they are forced to access it by turning their own physical energy into magic with the use of Alchemy.

These guys are amazing, but whats weird is how in the beginning they make them out as evil but slowly that tide changes because not every alchemist was bad.
Its also leans towards the side of what most people perceive what alchemy really is, which is using more physical props, but I haven't read all of the series yet so who knows?
Fae
Fae, is a race of magical beings that have the ability to conjure Magic for either themselves or to aid others. While they can be found all over the world, they are ruled by Titania and Oberon who presides within the Faerie Kingdom.

I've noticed they sort of use them like what we would with Thoughtforms. It seems like its a mix of basically astral beings like elementals, thoughtforms, spirits, etc.
For instance, they say said that they have certain Fae that they would use for what they specifically work on. So if you work with the element air a lot, you would have a Fae with that specific property.


There is a Church in this book too, Elias the horn guy, mage gets forced to help them out, their mainly helpless from what it seems. He said he does it so they turn a blind eye towards him. Elias hates the Priest and hates the church from what I've seen. There was a time when he was with the priest and Titania and Oberon showed up and she said to the Priest "Ahh one of the disciples of the foreign god, one of his druids-- or no a "priest"." She then leaned in closer "Ahh yes, its faint but the smell of the conqueror god clings to you. Those who kneel to the one who condemned the fruit of paradise as evil are not welcome here. Begone" Then she made him disappear. -- Taken from Volume 2.

From what I heard, the author Kore Yamazaki, liked reading old European folklore, which is what inspired her works on these manga.
Its strange though, because I figured she would keep the lore going with Pagan Holidays instead, but I got really angry when I heard that Elias and Chise the MC girl where celebrating Christmas, instead of Yule... Also the part of the book about the cat murderer was really brutal too...

BUT regardless of the little intricacies of this series, its a pretty good read! I stopped reading for a while now, they are airing a anime of it that kind of kickstarted me back into wanting to read it. I also checked and saw that she wrote other Manga too. One peaked my interest was Frau Faust, the synopsis made me interested, here you can check it out too https://myanimelist.net/manga/88427/Frau_Faust
 
I like the refferences and I'm waiting for the anime, to be released next season if I'm not mistaken, also 'Garo - Vanishing Line' and 'Kujira no Kora' of same season. You should check the trailers and synopsis:

This season is definitely the best season of 2017 imo.
They have a ton of good new shows and some continuation of some good anime too.

Literally stopped watching anime since like last winter season, their content was just so bad this year except for like 2 or 3 shows.
 
Egon, the anime is already out. I watched the first episode and the ova(that tell the story of the girl before she was take by the mage) and for now It looks like it's gonna be a good anime.

Alright so: I just clicked a link that I found about "9 actors who were never the same after a role" because I saw Neo's image in the thumbnail.

I thought this is interesting, and I'm posting it here because it's movies' related, and how the enemy works.
You know the movie Matrix, right? A 100% Satanic movie. Truly incredible, a real eye-opener.

Check this out:

Thanks man I always was kind of drawn to the Matrix but some one on the old forums here said it was Jewish I think and it kind of scared me away. Plus when I saw the name Wachowski I was a bit concerned, but after looking into the two directors (wachowskis) they are Gentile.

As far as Jewish directors that is not the first time Jewish directors have blatantly embarrassed hollywood actresses as they did it when Hollywood was first created alot. Some Joy of Satan material talks about it. This is no different then how the Grey aliens can kill or abduct people who do not know of the powers of the mind and soul. We must wake up our White brothers and sisters through the power of the will!

Are you talking about Kujiro no Kora?
I watched it too, its pretty fucking good anime. I like the premise and the animation/artstyle, it really suits the nature of the show.
