Witch Hunter: Difference between revisions

* [[Slash Fic]]: With the amount of [[Les Yay]] (and, to a lesser degree, [[Ho Yay]]) in this series, this is inevitable. There are already a few Xing/Tasha fics floating around, though they're written by French and other ESL fans.

* [[Slasher Smile]]: Aria, Cooga, Lee, Tyrfing, Rose and South are all prone to those. Tasha also often has more comical ones, and more seriously {{spoiler|when he removes his limiter and upgrades to S-Class. He sports one as well during his recent battle with Lancelot.}} And of course, it's Halloween's default expression {{spoiler|until the seal is broken, but then Ryuhwan's is there to pick up the slack}}. (After all, what would WH be without a grinning pumpkin ?)

* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]]: Until the first three profile pages were scanlated, most of the English fandom misspelled Tasha's surname, Tarras' first name, and Xing's full name.

** Often the result of [[Did Not Do the Research|the translators not getting mythological and/or cultural references]]. For instance, the Doberg family worships an Earth deity which has been referred to as "Fribity" in the French publication and "Prevhiti" in English scanlations. It just might actually be the Hindu goddess Prithvi. Aria's supporter is known as "Isis" (as in the Egyptian goddess) or "Aegis" (some sort of weapon/shield in Greek mythology), with the latter making more sense. (It should be noted that translating names from Korean isn't as easy as it looks... though apparently that doesn't explain how Prithvi was translated into Fribity.)

* [[Take a Third Option]]: Does {{spoiler|Tasha give up Halloween and train under Merlin}} or {{spoiler|Get arrested for disobeying an order}}? Neither, he {{spoiler|quits the WH}}.

* [[Technical Pacifist]]: The WH are contractually forbidden from killing witches, but it's a personal decision in the case of our [[Power Trio]]. Yes, even and ''particularly'' absurdly-violent Tasha.

* [[Theme Naming]]

** [[Theme Twin Naming|Theme Triplet Naming]]: The Bailong princes Lee, Yue and Xing are Sun, Moon and Star, respectively.

* [[With Friends Like These...]]: Tasha routinely shoots his allies. Sometimes just with anaesthetic bullets. Xing gets that particular treatment so much that he's apparently got himself an antidote for the anaesthetics for the times when he [[Blessed with Suck|gets to team up with Tasha]].

* [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity]]: Seems to be what happened to Aria. Magic is stated to take its toll on the human user's mind and body. {{spoiler|Temporarily happens to Tasha in vol 8.}}

** Also, ''[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/witch_hunter/v08/c036/17.html South]''.

* [[World of Badass]]: Going hand in hand with [[World of Ham]], especially when [[Large Ham|Tarras and Tania]] are around.
