Manga style art, when done tastefully, is tasteful. We could use some more manga love in Magic without looking like we're Yu-Gi-Oh.

I dropped this on Jareth, leonine Titan once in an EDH game and just let him block everything.

There needs to be more cards with this mechanic. The closest equipment equivalent is Echo Circlet? Come on, man, this thing is fun and combolicious!
I just wish it cost three mana so I could pull it out with Zur in EDH... The closest I can do is Wall of Glare plus Inviolability.

I don't think there's another card which is in more need of a reprint.

Maybe a bit overcosted (and that's pretty debatable), but the art, the flavor text, the CARD is all-around an example of fantastic design. I'm pretty sure it would also be equipment nowadays (I mean really, read the name again), and equipment with such an effect might be costed....... 4 to play, 3 to equip? I'm not really sure.

Combo with Abu Ja'far, which has super death touch.
Does the enchantress only soak up 6 total damage (leaving 62 to be taken) or does she soak up 6 from each attacking creature (leaving 16 to be taken)?

Your numbers are a little messed up. Yavimaya Enchantress with those enchantments on her will be 4/4, not 6/6. Blastoderm is only a 5/5. And 64 minus 6 equals 58, not 62. Also Blastoderm doesn't have trample.
To answer your question, a 6/6 blocking 8 8/8 tramplers will soak up damage equal to its toughness (6) leaving the rest (58) to go through. Also, putting Inviolability on the creature doesn't affect how much damage goes through, it just changes whether the creature dies or not.

Block everything with their own demise
Run with Beloved Chaplain, and/or Commander Eesha, and/or Voice of All.
