"Witch Hunter Robin" comes to Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim beginning Monday, February 16. The gothic series about a supernatural threat to modern society will air Monday-Thursday at midnight (ET, PT) during Adult Swim, Cartoon Network’s highly-rated late night block of animation for adults.

"Witch Hunter Robin" brings high action, intrigue and conspiracy to its gothic story, set in present-day Japan. In a world where witches abuse their supernatural powers, a special team is given the task of hunting this new threat to society. The STN is a shadowy international organization combating the Witches with a blend of technology, forensic science, and other supernaturally powered team members of their own.

A young lady named Robin is the most powerful member of the team. Her mysterious gift, the ability to summon deadly flames, will determine the fates of her colleagues and lead her into a dark world of mystique and witchcraft. "Witch Hunter Robin" is directed by animé veteran Shukou Murase, who served as Character Designer for "Gundam Wing," and "Argentosoma."
