📖 Healer and Firestarter verse.
This is supposed to be random, you know. ;) But I'm fine with it. So, let's see.
Let's begin at the beginning. There are those who can heal virtually any wound or illness. Those are Healers. Healers are always bonded to a Firestarter - Firestarters are fire made flesh (in their own words). Firestarters are immune to fire (the stronger they are, the more immune they are. The strongest of Firestarters could happily bathe in hot lava - and many of them have.)
These things are standard to all Firestarter/Healer universes: they are often regulated by the Guild, which is a world-wide organization for both types. The Guild sees to it that properly registered Firestarters/Healers get training and ensuers that they have housing and a stipend. Often the Guild will arrange for parties where Firestarers and Healers can meet one another in the hopes that they will bond. Sometimes the Guild is corrupt - depends on my mood of the moment.
Not all Firestarters/Healers belong to the Guild, though non-registered ones are rare. Firestarters and Healers have special privileges in certain regards. Harm a bonded Healer and if you're lucky the Firestarter will scorch you to the bone. If you're unlucky, the Healer will deal with you. And since a Healer's secondary powers involve plant control (because life energy) then "painful" is the least thing it is. You will pray for pain. And that's for a regular Healer. If for some reason a Healer has gone corrupt (usually because of torment or other stressful situations) then it gets ever so much worse.
Stories are told about what corrupt Healers have done to those who offend them. Those stories do not allow for peaceful sleeping at night. But Healers and Firestarters can protect each other and themselves without fear of retribution - it's legal to kill in self-defense and there is no Firestarter that can lie to a Healer.
There are also Healer Cats and Fire Cats. Those can bond with their opposite (Healer Cats to Firestarters, Fire Cats to Healers) and the bond is almost as close as Firestarter/Healer. Cats are human-intelligent and capable of speaking human languages but lack (of course) opposable thumbs. Healer Cats are almost always white and Fire Cats come in any color of flame. The same holds true for Healers and Firestarters, in regards to their hair.
Frequently the power runs in families, though it's been known for a family of Healers to produce a Firestarter or a Firestarter clan to produce a Healer.
The highest ranking of Firestarters and Healers are known as the First Flame of [insert country here]. Known First Flames are Kaiba Seto and Motomiya Daisuke (once he grows up). Known First Healers are Mutou Yuugi and Ichijouji Ken (once he grows up).
If a Firestarter is strong enough and of the correct temperment, it's not impossible for their fires to frost over, transforming from masters of fire to masters of ice. A famous example of this is Marufuji Ryou, who frosted over in the underground against Inukai. This disqualified him from being a future First Flame. He doesn't care. Most Frostflames are looked upon with fear and worry.
With the correct drugs, a Healer or Firestarter's power can be temporarily negated. They don't like this but there are occasions when it's neessary or useful. If used too often, these drugs can (and often have) lead to a corrupted Healer or Firestarter.
Known Firestarters: Motomiya Daisuke
Yagami Taichi
Yagami Hikari
Takenouchi Sora
Kaiba Seto
Mazaki Anzu
Kujaku Mai
Yuuki Juudai
Marufuji Ryou
Saiou Takuma
Tenjoin Asuka
Tenjoin Fubuki
Known Healers: Ichijouji Ken
Ishida Yamato
Takaishi Takeru
Tachikawa Mimi
Mutou Yuugi
Marufuji Shou
Fujiwara Yuusuke
Edo Phoenix
Jim Cook
Manjoume Jun
A Healer/Firestarter bond isn't necessarily romantic. They can be but it's neither mandatory nor expected. Frequently a Healer and Firestarter will form a three to four person family, with the adults raising any children together.
I think that's enough for tonight. Anyone who has more questions is welcome to ask them!

Bookshelf Briefs 7/30/19
Black Clover, Vol. 16 | By Yuki Tabata | VIZ Media – It’s usually about this time in a long-running Jump manga that one of the cast is killed off for drama, usually an authority figure. And there’s no bigger authority figure in Black Clover than Julius, who is forced to fight against the leader of the Eye of the Midnight Sun and pays the ultimate price. That said, our heroes are also storming the villains’ base, which should allow for lots of cool fights. Unfortunately, we may also have some friends fighting friends, as magic beams have come down and converted some of our heroes—Luck in particular—into Midnight Sun cultists. That said, it’s the death of the Wizard King that looms over this volume, and while that opens up the position for Asta, this isn’t how he wanted it. – Sean Gaffney
Flying Witch, Vol. 7 | Chihiro Ishizuka | Vertical Comics – If it seems like it’s been forever since the last volume of this series, you’re right—it’s been about a year. That said, it’s easy to get back into the swing of this series that has always reminded me of Yotsuba&! only with the supernatural. The most amusing part of the manga was seeing our girls being given super soft candy that’s actually softened diamonds, and the reactions to this. We also ALMOST see Inukai cured, but family trumps that, in a sort of bittersweet but heartwarming way. And the mandrakes are back, only they’re adorable, and also running all over the house. Nothing ever really happens in this series (which is good as it may be a year till volume eight), but you’re always be smiling while reading it. – Sean Gaffney
New Game!, Vol. 6 | By Shotaro Tokuno | Seven Seas – We’re back to the regular serialized 4-koma here, though there’s a big change a-coming, as Kou decides to take advantage of an opportunity to go study in France, leaving a big hole to fill at Eagle Vision. Fortunately, there are new hires who are here to move into a kohai role, Sunshine Sketch-style. (Speaking of Sunshine Sketch, Kou and Rin have always seemed like Sae and Hiro, and that doesn’t change at all after reading this.) As for the new characters, Tsubame and Momiji, they both know each other—in fact they live together—and will no doubt add to the kinda-yuri pileup this series has. That said, they’re competitive. Will Aoba get to be the sempai she dreams of being, or will she lose out again? Cute stuff. – Sean Gaffney
Oresama Teacher, Vol. 26 | By Izumi Tsubaki | VIZ Media – Mafuyu has been abducted by her new teacher Seiichiro Maki and soon discovers that he’s actually a servant of the Hanabusa family. Despite her circumstances, the plot continues to be “Find out about Maki’s past,” and Mafuyu ends up getting the story from Toko Hanabusa, who visits her in captivity because she finds her stupidity amusing. It turns out that Maki has a history of helping lost little girls, having once rescued a young Mafuyu, and in this way ended up meeting Toko and fulfilling the role of her big brother (since her family kept her apart from Miyabi) and shedding his delinquent past. I really wish I could care about any of this, but I do not. Not even a little. It might be time for me to stop reading this series. – Michelle Smith
Snow White with the Red Hair, Vol. 2 | By Sorata Akiduki | Viz Media – As a whole, I tend to thoroughly enjoy shoujo fantasy manga, so I’m always happy when a new title is licensed. What makes Snow White with the Red Hair stand out from other recently released series is that, so far, there are no magical or supernatural elements involved. Unless, of course, one considers the practice of medicine to be a form of magic. While she still has plenty to learn, Shirayuki has now successfully become a court herbalist in the kingdom of Clarines. This has earned her a rightful place in Wistal Palace, but there are still those who would question her motivations. Even in the face of this increased scrutiny, Shirayuki has consistently demonstrateda remarkable strength of character and sense of justice. Snow White with the Red Hair is a lovely tale of fantasy with endearing characters and just the right touch of court intrigue and romance. – Ash Brown
Witch Hat Atelier, Vol. 2 | By Kamome Shirahama | Kodansha Comics – I hate these sorts of series. Not the actual manga itself, which is gorgeous and fantastic and makes you get heart eyes, but the fact that it’s hard to figure out what to say about it. I don’t really want to talk about what happens as that will ruin the sense of wonder that I think we’re meant to get from every volume. Several parts of the book I went back and read bits of over and over again just to enjoy the flow, and I also really liked the cliffhanger, which amps up the danger about one thousand percent. And Coco is simply fantastic, being the sort of YA fantasy protagonist everyone wants. Basically, aaaaah, flail flail flail, go buy this. You won’t regret it. – Sean Gaffney
World’s End and Apricot Jam, Vol. 6 | By Rila Kirishima | Kodansha Comics (digital only) – Hina and Anzu’s love story reached a natural conclusion at the end of volume five but apparently someone really wanted to see them do it, so we get these three “encore” chapters that take place 1.5 years in the future. “It feels like you turned 19 in the blink of an eye,” Anzu tells Hina on the first page, so everyone knows she’s of legal age when they finally have their love scene. Two short stories round out the volume, one of which is a pretty bad early story and the second of which is about Hina’s friend, Nakatsu. I actually like that, rather than get a love story for Nakatsu, this is the story of him setting his girlfriend free when she falls for someone else. All in all, this series had some sweet moments and some silly, melodramatic moments, but in the end I enjoyed it. – Michelle Smith

Flying Witch Manga Release Summons Limited Edition Audio Drama CD
Do you believe in magic? Well, I hope you do, because the cast for the Flying Witch TV anime has reunited for a 27 minute audio drama CD that will be included as a pack-in bonus for the special edition Japanese release of Volume 08 of the Flying Witch manga. The audio drama CD features a screenplay by Deko Akao, and the voice cast includes:
Minami Shinoda as Makoto Kowata.
Eri Suzuki as Chinatsu Kuramoto.
Shinsuke Sugawara as Kei Kuramoto.
Shiori Mikami as Nao Ishiwatari.
Kana Aoi as Akane Kowata.
Mari Hino as Inukai.
Yuka Iguchi as Anzu Shiina.
And Hisako Kanemoto as Hina and the Magical Fire.
The story of the audio drama follows Chinatsu Kuromoto, who is anxious to celebrate her "First Magic Day Anniversary" as part of her training to become a witch. In her haste to master magic quickly, Chinatsu opens an enchanted chest and unleashes what was kept within, resulting in her "First Magic Day Anniversary" being unexpectedly lively.
The original Flying Witch manga by Chihiro Ichizuka is serialized in Kodansha's Bessatsu Shōnen Magazine, and an English language version is also available from Vertical, Inc.. The Flying Witch TV anime is directed by Katsushi Sakurabi and features animation production by J.C. Staff. Crunchyroll describes the story of Flying Witch as follows:
Aomori, Japan In a land blessed by nature’s bountiful beauty, bizarre things begin to take place. Makoto Kowata, 15 years old, is a professional witch. She left Yokohama with Chito, her black cat, to live in the house of her relatives in Aomori. This is where she begins to train as a witch. Even though Makoto’s powers are still limited to just flying through the sky, she and her second cousins Kei and Chinatsu surely make the most out of each and every day.
Volume 08 of the Flying Witch manga will be released in Japan on August 09, 2019. The special edition release including the audio drama CD retails for 1944 yen ($17.99 US).

Street Date: 10/24/2017

SYNOPSIS: Traditionally, when a witch turns 15, she's supposed to go out into the world alone to study magic. Makoto's parents, however, believe that their directionally-challenged daughter should get a high school degree. Instead of being sent out on her own, Makoto and her cat Chito find themselves traveling from the bustling city of Yokohama to Aomori Prefecture, where they'll stay with relatives until Makoto finishes school. It's going to be a big adjustment, and it only gets more complicated since "normal" people aren't supposed to know that witches exist… something that she tends to forget. In the meantime, Makoto, her cousins, and her new friends will have to work just a little harder to adapt to a whole new way of life when the new girl in town is a FLYING WITCH!
Excited for the 1st anime I translated to come out on Blu-ray w/ a great dub. Big shout out to ADR Writer Marta Bechtol for reworking my TL. https://t.co/Yg28F1QARQ
