Slave of Anima is a witch appearing in the Magia Record Anime. She was later added into the game as an EX Challenge boss in Valentine Message ~The Memories are Pale Black~
Witch Card
The Witch of meat grillers. Her nature is to labor. A dog-shaped Witch who lives purely for the sake of her job. She continually grills meat by turning a wheel as a power source. She’s long since forgotten why she was working this job in the first place. When the Witch eventually dies of overwork, a suitable candidate is selected from the minions in her Labyrinth, and made to spin the wheel as the next Witch. |
Minions
Minions of the Witch of meat grillers. Their role is to be subordinate workers. Their main jobs are to serve the meat grilled by the Witch and to wash the plates, but there aren’t actually any customers, so they secretly throw the meat out. It’s a harsh job environment, but in their opinion, it’s at least better than becoming the next Witch of Meat Grillers. |
Trivia
- The word 'Anima' is originally a Latin word with multiple meanings, such as life, mind, spirit, wind, and the vital principle. The word is the etymological origin of several well-known words, e.g. 'animal' and 'animation.'
- The Witch's name being "Slave of Anima" likely means that the Witch encountered in the anime is a Familiar that has succeeded the original Witch after it died or was defeated, or the Familiar became independent and broke away from its master.
- The word "karoshi" (過労死) is written throughout her Labyrinth. Translating literally as "overwork death", karoshi refers to sudden occupation-induced death due to extreme physical and mental exhaustion, commonly heart attacks and strokes, or being compelled to suicide.
- The Witch's dog-like appearance is most likely based on a turnspit dog, an extinct breed that was used to make meat cook evenly. They were placed on big wheels that were connected to meat spits, and as the dogs ran the meat would rotate. These dogs would often suffer from the heat and smoke coming from the fire, as their wheels were placed above it, or even have coals thrown at them if they were working too slowly.
