Editorial Review: Raised in an Italian convent, 16-year-old Robin Sana returns to her native Japan to join the STNJ, a secret organization that captures, rather than kills, witches of both sexes. The typically mismatched crew includes hacker Michael Lee, rookie Haruto Sakaki, psychic Miho Karasuma, Yurika Dojima, the spoiled daughter of a prominent family, and icily aloof Amon, the de facto leader of the team. As a "craft user," Robin can conjure fire as a weapon, but has some trouble with her aim. Witch Hunter combines the subdued palette of Blood: The Last Vampire with the alienated tone of the Vampire Princess Miyu OVAs. The elegantly designed settings and skillful use of color are more interesting than the flat stories about pursuing the supernatural murderers. All six volumes and a pin collection are included in this set. (Rated 13 and older: violence, alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

Rating: - Interesting, starts off a bit slow, but gets better
Witch Hunter Robin starts off as a "monster-of-the-week" type of series which is reminiscent of a cross between the X-Files and the X-Men. It takes a little while for the plot to actually shift gears and get moving into a progressive storyline and it probably would have been better to move into the storyline a little sooner. That said, it's still fun watching and once the plot does develop it gets pretty interesting. Robin is not the most exciting or endearing character - I don't think this is ... Read More
Rating: - Great Series, but Product is Misrepresented a bit...
I really like this series..I'm not going to review the anime itself, as everyone has different tastes, and nobody needs my opinion to decide whether or not they are going to like something.
With that said....Amazon needs to remove the picture of the collector set, if that is not the set they will be shipping to the customer. I was under the impression that I was getting the set with the pin, but was disappointed when the package arrived without the extras. Amazon, please update your ... Read More
Rating: - Wtich Hunter Robin
This is one of my favorite anime. Cartoon network seldom shows it. The first thirteen episodes get you acquainted with the characters, with a few hints of things to come. The second half tell of Robin's orgins and everybody's secrets come out.
Rating: - great film noir
this is a great film noir series. The character of Robin even though she has all this power she is only 15 and the series stays true to that. Robin starts out as a young replacement "hunter" she sloowly learns to better control her fire-craft and creats some human bonds along the way. I recomend this series to anyone who doesn't like being spoon-fed plotlines but instead enjoys something a little more engaging.
Rating: - Good Series
I really enjoyed watching this series some years ago on Cartoon Network. For the price it's really hard to beat, cost about as much to buy it here as it would've to rent all six discs from Hastings.
There series itself is good, I'd recommend it to anyone over the age of probably 14 or 15. There's some interesting things that go on in the story that I think would take a certain level of maturity to understand. But if anything else the main character sets stuff on fire!
