What are your expectations for LWA, /a/?

>>149152268
MOTHERFUCKING WHIMSY

Subpar animation
The-OVA-was-better threads
Akko being a mostly unlikable bitch
A decent, enjoyable show

I'm kinda hoping Yoshinari has learned from the second OVA, he's admitted she's a difficult character to write, and I think as a result she became a difficult character to like.

>>149152592
She was great in the first OVA, but in the second she basically told her friends FUCK YOU AND YOUR STUPID IDEAS WE'RE DOING IT MY WAY YOU FUCKING LOSERS.

but my gut feeling says it won't.

Not high. It'll probably be p boring after the first 2 episodes.

>The-OVA-was-better threads
All I care is that it manages to be better than OVA2, that was so bad. OVA1 was a fun little thing in its own right, but as anything more than that it's just a cheap chinese harry potter knockoff.

Better development for Akko that doesn't go the route of The Enchanted Parade and more characterization for the rest of the cast, especially for the trio from the second movie. Expecting fun, lots of fun.

>>149152461
We've already gotten a peek at what the animation is going to be like. The question is whether or not they will be consistent all the way through.

I want a catchy op, ed or insert song, I want Akko to become a badass like Luluco and Ryuuko did while still retaining cute demeanor and above all else, lots of Diana and Amada and settling the story about Shiny Chariot's background.

I'm expecting extreme lewd a la Kill la Kill.

I don't have high expectations. I am going to watch it because I watch most mahou shoujo, but I don't think I will particularly like it.

I'm just hoping for no scenes where the animation gets bad.

Straightforward, unimpressive, even mostlly static, that's fine by me, as long as it doesn't look terrible. I hope they can hack it.

Would be nice to see more explict Englishness in the setting.

Since the whole thing was set within the academy, the first OVA only really had a map to show it, revealing that the academy is basically where stonehenge is.

The second OVA had quite a bit more with the market, some of the cars, an old-fashioned phone-box and even a Punch and Judy show came to life, which is perhaps the most esoteric thing, and there was Akko's UK flag which came out of nowhere, and Shaun and Ed from Shaun of the Dead were hidden amongst the background characters, although I'm not sure that should count. The architecture of the town looked like he picked out a few buildings from Salisbury and just ran with it. There's a mix of buildings there but in the OVA even the Tudor designs were rendered to look like stone.

So far in the PV we've seen a railway station that looks like it's based on Salisbury station (closest to Stonehenge), and a sign for a London Underground station that is laughably far west of London. It probably says "Ley Line".

The bank on the right looks like a lot of the buildings in the OVA's town.

The Tudor building on the left also shows up.

I don't know, just for it to feel more solid. I feel like, at least from the first OVA, if people hadn't noticed that map, they could assume the academy was anywhere.

It'd be interesting to see if they'll ever have the witches be animated without Yoshinari pulling on the reins so tightly, what would it be like if Imaishi animated a scene?

Sushio did some animation on the 2nd OVA but Yoshinari picked it apart.

>>149152268

Not going to be fun to watch since the Netflix Method™ takes all the fun out of watching shows over a period of time.

If japs didn't get interested in LWA after 2 OVAs the series won't change shit.
I hope for Trigger they already made bank thanks to Netflix.

>>149160061
it doesn't have a self insert otaku MC who becomes a magical overlord with a harem, of course its not going to do good in japan,
the target audience is going to be overseas.

>>149152268
Lotte being best girl

Shitty animation for 99% of the series but still praised for weeks on end for the four seconds where it exhibits competent animation because Trigger cocksuckers want to believe that Trigger is anything more than a meme studio that is carried exclusively by government/crowdsourced funding.

What the fuck are you talking about
LWA1 is the only thing they've done funded by government, and LWA2 is the only thing they've done that's crowdfunded
and yet there's also:
>Kill la Kill
>Inferno Cop
>Inou Battle wa Nichijou-kei no Naka de
>Ninja Slayer
>Kiznaiver
>Space Patrol Luluco
>collaborations for Black Dynamite, Toy Story, that Hacka Doll thing...

>>149152822
This
If she doesn't end up being the focus of every episode I will scream

>>149163368
Yeah and most of those animate like dogshit, thereby solidifying its position as Gainax 2.0 except that they don't even bother waiting until they teeter on the edge of bankruptcy before slashing budgets. How punchdrunk do you have to be to list Ninja Slayer, Inferno Cop, Luluco, and Kill La Kill when I'm railing on a studio for having bad/cheap animation unless there's someone else helping to foot the bill?

>>149163368
Don't remind about the Toy Story collab. I don't want to remember what a missed opportunity that was.

>>149163055

She was literally a waste of space. She added nothing but a dumb gluttony gag, while Amanda and Constanze actually added some value. I'm hoping the TV show will justify Jasminka's existence.

She was cute and that's all I wanted about her. As long as she's there to provide comedic relief and be a cute chub I'm more than happy to have Jasminka
