This Anime is another reason the Japanese put America in the pretty Lame section of the Animation for other than kids dept.
This is the story of Kazuma. Born into a family of powerful Fire-magic Users, he's Powerless. Abused Mentally and Physically by his family, he's disowned and thrown out as a kid(his mom is "nice" enough to give him a credit card after telling him she's disappointed something so useless came from her womb...). A decade later, Air-magic is being used to kill family members and Kazuma returns to the town at the same time. The family assumes he's back for Vengence and sends his father to capture or kill him. When he trounces his Abusive father he's discovered to be a Contractor, One who's been given by an Elemental King Their Powers to use for 20 minutes at a time(you don't get to be the King and be stupid, giving Humans godlike Powers 24/7;>). Adventures insue.
The hardest thing for Americans will be that Kazuma is considered to be a "Bad Boy" because he doesn't automatically forgive the Abuse and rejoin the clan that threw him out when he was Powerless...now that he has....for the good of the clan.
Cheers,

No, I haven't gone over to the "Made Up is equal to Real Stuff" side of Modern Paganism. What I have been is doing Work that, while in sync with the Lore is my own creation and adapted to my Health, Life, Geography and Biome. The biggest change was no longer trying to do Rites that truly require 2 or more participants. If it can't be done well just by me, I adapt it or drop it. If I lived in a Heathen rich area I wouldn't have gone down this Path but since I don't, I HAVE.
One big difference is that there isn't that much to post to others about because literally they don't live here and so my Experiences wouldn't be the same as theirs whereever they live. Though to be accurate, the historical timing of Agricultural Rites does fit in pretty well to my local Biome. "Charming" comes at a perfect time to ready your tools for the gardens and Eostre just before planting out in the beds.
To me, without the banns of a Heathen community, I finally decided to focus on Work that "works" for me, my family and my land. And that oddly enough seems pretty "Heathen" to me;>....
Cheers,
Pat
