GET EXCITED, FAGGOTS!
prediction: the first episode will be great and have good animation, every episode after will be kiznaiver tier
>>151714597
Of all the things, of all the awful, mass produced, terrible shit /a/ likes to talk about, this is what you chose to focus on.
>>151714570
At first, as a child, you liked the "DUDE WEED XD" girl, then, as you matured, you saw how beautiful Lotte was. But then, after finding yourself, you can't give up Akko and her glorious legs. She is just perfect. The girl that will never stop making you laugh. Genki girls are best girls.
prediction: Lotte turns out to be a boy.
>>151714570
No,
I refuse.
prediction: I will save every frame of Sucy
it will be worse than: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xN0vt5Ca8lE
Trigger was a MISTAKE

(You)
>>151715567
it got popular
>>151715567
>suddenly /a/ hates LWA
Only newfags, and crossboarders hate it.
when does it come out
I await the Kill la Kill and Space Patrol Luluco references
>>151715782
>Trigger-chan turns up again
>Sucy: "Remember that time I hastened your death? Good times. Good luck finding Nova-kun."
>>151715813
I think it'd be even more interesting if Luluco and Akko's hi five at the end was canon. What a time that was, I mean, who expected Akko at the end?
>>151715691
The 7th or 8th of January, I forgot
>>151714597

>>151715980

>>151716555
>>151715782
I don't, they need to keep Imaishit as far as possible from this so he doesn't fuck it up
>>151716773
Sometimes it's beyond belief.
I mean you can't go wrong with magical girls in a magic school so I can't see Trigger fucking this up.
>>151715782
I hope not. Trigger girls can be as crazy as they want but I kinda hope the lore of LWA can be left alone.
>>151714570
This and Maidragon are the only anime I'm excited for in 2017.
>>151715567
Epik memelords and contrarians
>>151716866
It's not even fucking out yet.
>>151716820
they wont
>>151715567
They probably realized tumbr liked it or some shit.
>>151716935
There are multiple daily threads about extremely popular shonen shows, so that's no excuse.
tfw just rewatched LWA and didn't like it near as much I did 3 years ago
Hopefully the TV series is more cute SoL stuff and less of the mindnumbing action stuff
Post Amanda please.
>>151715567
Newfags that weren't here when the kickstarter got a sticky and /a/ LITERALLY funded it by ourselves.
Have a tumblr gif of best girlNow get triggered
>>151714570
I am!
>>151716985
They shit on these too. Popularity outside of /a/ is probably the deciding factor. /a/ is a bunch of whimsical, ungrateful cunts.
>>151716986
Go back to your generic CGDCT #21314, faggot.
LWA is meant to be hotblooded.
>>151717105
But it wasn't hotblooded either, maybe that's the problem. This should've been directed by Imaishi.
>>151717069
those were better times
>>151717069
I wish I were aware of this at the time
I hope the anime will open new keyframe sales
>>151717154
>But it wasn't hotblooded either, maybe that's the problem.
Of course it was.
>This should've been directed by Imaishi
Imaishi's limited animation is the exact opposite of what LWA is going for.
>>151716173
KLK literally saved anime by showing HOW SHIT it can be, now everyone feel better knowing that anime in general is pretty okay compared to UTTER SHIT KLK
>>151716866
that's a good thing you degenerate
>>151717468
KLK is better than anything you likeThough it's still not better than your moms pussy

She's mine, no one else can have her
>>151714814

I'm going to marry this witch!
>>151717546
Too bad senpai, she is already pregnant with my child. Deal with it.
>>151714570
when does first episode air?
>>151717789
January 8, January 9 for Netflix, though when filthy gaijin pirates like us can get it is unknown.
Is there any group that rips shows from netflix?
>>151717835
>January 9 for Netflix
normal netflix or just the japanese one,
cause id get a netflix suspcription just for this to be honest.
>Not having a netflix subscription

I wonder if this show will have villains

>>151714570
>make a nice movie/ova franchise
>ruin it with seasonal anime schedule
so exited
One of the girls will get a boyfriend at the end of this series, which one is it?I say Sucy.
>>151717835
No crunchyroll? Horrible subs?
>>151718273
I remember for touhou zun confrimed that malales exist in gensokyo and that some of the girls do have boyfriends and husband but then refused sp specify exactly who, they could do that,
one of them gets married but its never said who so waifufags cant get mad.
>>151718273
She's into gooks.
>>151718301
>crunchyroll
Nope
>horrible subs
Probably not but we can always ask them
>>151717835
Waitdoes that mean that I'm going to have to watch it trhrough netflix? Is it any good? The only time I used it for anime the translations were fucking awful
so is the netflix thing just them being the localization license or did it give partial funding like it did to that other thing?
>>151718430
Netflix is taking over every damn thing
>8 days
>>151718540
not really
in fact the reasons I cancelled it in the fist place was them pulling off a whole mess of stuff .
>>151716555
>>151718842
Yes. Akko vs Diane magical duel
>>151714570
Soo, this series is going to start on Netflix? Meaning ALL 10 episodes are going to be available first day? No weekly LWA threads then?
I don't watch trash.
>>151719011
No, they should air normally.
>>151717941
Mio brother
>>151719016
no. It's short for animation. You're retarded.
>>151719397
Animation, as in: cartoons.
>>151719460
No, animations as in animation.
>>151719521
Yeah, like western animation. Which is anime. In Japan. Anime.
>>151719621
No, like animation
>>151719460
>>151719664
A cartoon is usually just a kind of drawing. It doesn't even have to be animated. It' derived from the French word for paperboard.
The designs are very sexy
Prediction: it'll turn out to be a picture-story show like Ninja Slayer or Inferno Cop.
>>151719940
the only reason anyone will watch it
>>151719940
Only Amanda and Diana. The others look too young.

That's funny, I don't remember writing either of these posts
Sorry for samefagging guys
Everything I don't like is reddit newfaggotry
I'm just watching it for Ryuko
is this gonna be yuri?
>>151720641
how come nobody ever calls Kyoani reddit then?
>>151720888
no because it panders to normie waito piggu
>>151720932
they just clal it tumblr instead
>>151720888
No, Mage boys confirmed.
>>151720888
It depends what you mean by "yuri". If tight female friendship is yuri to you, then yes. If only lesbians means yuri to you then no. It will be light subtext.
>>151720932
how many kyoani threads have you been in? 2?
>>151721001
>light subtext
I doubt it's even gonna be that.
>>151721037
I'm positive it will have light subtext at least.
>>151720727
I thought normalfags didn't like anime and more so ones with cute little girls. Have I been out of the loop for too long?
I really miss accelspammer.

>>151721130
princess tutu didn't have any of that
>>151721117
Like Precure has done it.
>>151721130
Yeah yeah but how exactly do you picture said subtext? That word can mean anything from basic interactions between friends to "confession of love"im still mad
>>151720888
No. The OVAs were just trying to be corny kiddy cartoons without the slightest hint of romance or sexuality. I can't see the TV series being any different

Should I watch the movie, or is the anime going to be a straight adaption of the movie?
>>151721223
Basically it's BFF stuff, usually one character has a male love interest but the way the girls care for each other in a context of friendship or fraternal/platonic love is also yuri.
>>151721149
thats cause it was a good show that could stand on its own merits without pandering.
>>151718054
>>151721329
what?
>>151721304
It's not even feature length, so yes, do watch it, and the second one too. The TV show likely won't have animation nearly as good.

I know that somebody will hate me for this Question but where are the Wizards in the LWA Universe?
>>151721618
I have literally no idea what that means
>>151721715
Maybe the anime will touch on this.
I wonder what we should to do to force tourists from /tv/ and /co/ to stay in their own damn forums.
>>151721751
why does LWA bring /co/?
>>151721715
>Are there wizards?
>If we have a sequel, we'd like to introduce a male magic user but I can't make that decision on my own, so hopefully.
>One of the original scripts, longer ones, featured a male magician who possibly falls in love with Akko but we didn't go with that. Obviously.
>>151721780
it doesn't, it's just a boogeymanor I hope, if it really brings /co/mblr then we have a fucking problem
>>151721796
thats bad i want my hetfag feeling to be fulfilled

Yuck, don't ever bring that up again
>>151721796

>>151721780
>why does LWA bring /co/?
By defying expectations about what anime "should" look like, at least amongst the sort of people who think Panty and Stocking should be /co/ territory and Avatar the Last Airbender should be /a/ territory.
>>151721796
>who possibly falls in love with Akko
She's fucking insufferable, how can anyone fall in love with her? A love plot should be the other way around, she falls in love with someone but she's too autistic to reach that love
>>151721900
How do you reach that conclusion
>>151721731
It's going to be memetic in nature.
>>151721780
Is it cause trigger is basically a westaboo company? they can get a foothold in /a/.
>>151721900
Please not! I want to watch a Series without guys from /u/ that are here only for ruining the experience
and here we will have the biggest problem. /u/ will invade all LWA Threads like hell
How will they make these 2 interesting and likable in the TV series?

Have you not noticed that she's super cute?
She's annoying, but only if you were around her all the time.

It was also pretentious and boring.

>>151722023
But the german witch is already perfect
Should I watch the stuff that's already out or start with the new season?
>>151722121
This will be the Love Plot:
Akko flies with her broom over a town but then she crashes aganist a wall and there he is the boy that she will fuck soon
>>151722070
I wish Amanda had the rivalry with Diana instead of Akko. that would be so hot
>>151722219
And? Is every Series that are having a female cast now fucking yuri?

name one all female cast show that isnt yuri
>>151722251
The new season seems to be a reboot, but we don't know if it will remake the movies (Dragon Ball Super style) or not. Just watch them anyway, they're short and there's really no reason not to if you're interested in the series
>>151722269
So it will be the "a mysterious girl fell on him from out of nowhere" plot, but this time from the POV of the girl?
Why are all the witches from Europe or Asia? Why aren't there any black witches?

>>151722955
They tried to make the second movie appealing to little girls.
I don't know what the demographic for the TV show is going to be. The manga is serialized in an otaku/moe-ish magazine.
>>151715782
They're not going to happen. Yoshinari isn't Imaishi and Little Witch Academia isn't Luluco.
>>151723035
Probably like Precure, but skewed a little the other way, so instead of a core demographic of kids, with additional "big friends", it's a core demographic of creepy adults who like cute things, with additional "little friends"

>>151722717
It's not social correctness. There is a large amount of interesting folklore revolving around magic in Africa and the Caribbeans.
Hell, the whole concept of zombies evolved from voodoo. It's far stupider to cut out interesting magical folklore from a story because you don't want to see black people.

Not interesting enough to animate.
There are so many newfag trolls on /a/ that just like to pour shit on anything anybody else actually likes. They're just a bunch of edgy as fuck tweenagers and wannabe hipsters who think it's fashionable to hurl abuse at something and label it reddit or tumblr.
Simply ignore them, don't feed them.
I don't give a rats ass who funded it.
I couldn't give a flying fuck what crowd likes it or dislikes it.
And I am genuinely looking forward to it.
>>151723455
Thanks for pointing it out, I haven't noticed the first 5 replies.
>>151723833
What the fuck are you still doing in this thread if you hate this anime so much you fucking retard?
>>151723688
Most likely due to the rather insular nature of the Japanese. Since they were mostly influenced by America and Europe during their industrialization and beyond they tend to think of those regions first and foremost when they think "foreign".
It's a bit of a shame. That medieval them has gotten a bit over used. There's so few anime and manga that try to explore other areas such as Arabic, Latin America or African settings. It could honestly be rather interesting.

>>151724005
I know. I don't deny that there are manga and anime that focus on non-European and American settings but they still aren't that common.
>>151724068
but why has japan clung to western fantasy so fiercely as of late?
>>151721780
Trigger is a western pandering whore.
>>151724102
All the isekai as of late. As I said, when Japanese think of a strange land it's going to be some European type setting they think of first. So that will be a big part of it.
>>151724102
Europe and its western offshoots have had easily available literature dating back centuries, much of which has become common knowledge worldwide at at least a rudimentary level. You didn't exactly see the printing press being invented in sub-Saharan Africa, average people know no African folklore.

The cameos going in one direction doesn't mean it will go in the other direction too.
Although, honestly I expect a lot of references to Trigger stuff and plenty of other things, but I expect them to be more subtle than just, you know, "Mako turns up"
>>151724488
Perhaps read between the lines? Don't shitpost useless "hurr lwa is reddit, lwa is /co/" over and over. Trying to discredit a show before it even airs by insisting how "reddit" something is, is pure red herring.
LWA's momentum was gained in good part directly because of /a/. We got that OVA funded before other animu sites were even fucking posting about that campaign. LWA kind of crystallizes /a/'s hopes and dreams for what the descendants of Gainax can get done - awesome, well-crafted original series, something absolutely critical to the whole medium's health.

They are actually not letting this die in Japan. It's getting some advertisement and even the cover on next month's Shounen Ace.

Was it any good? Did Diana have a cute british accent?
I got deleted! Why?
Oh well. Still looking forward.
>>151725320
Makes sense. It's on TV, so it has backers and a production committee or something like that, so it has a marketing budget, unlike the first OVA which is part of the animator's training project and the second OVA which was pertly self-funded and something of a gamble. Goodsmile were involved but I don't know how much, point is, being on TV is more of a big deal. They NEED people to watch it.
>>151725486
Everybody was american. Because america.
>>151725407
If it's out in late April on netflix then that means it's out after it's aired in Japan, hence it doesn't matter so much if it's a dump of all the eps. Ep 1 in Japan airs in about a week.
I don't think it's feasible for studios to do the "release everything at once" deal anyway; that doesn't work well with their production schedules and this scheme also didn't work out well at all for Re:Life's sales.
>>151725486
No, but she did sound suitably stuck-up and classy.
Sucy and Lotte's voices were adorable. I liked the little hint of mirthful sadism in the voice Sucy's VA when she said "drink up" to the minotaur. It's the little things.

>>151725486
It was kinda mediocre but Diana was actually the best voice.

Why don't we have concrete facts about airing schedule
Is there a break between cours?
So is it going to be a continuation of the movies, or will it re-tell the movie storyline?
>>151723143
>Reminder that this kickstarter was called cancer on /a/ but got super popular on reddit
To the niggers and newfags that might think this is truth, it's the other way around. /v/ and reddit went full "it's moe and it's shit" route and did nothing but shitpost.
Also you might be thinking about UtD that was exactly what you described.
>>151726144
She was endearing in the first OVA, in the second one they pushed her brattiness a little too far. The plot required it but it made her unlikable. We're not supposed to dislike her, though, I think Yoshinari and co just struggled to write her. I'm willing to forgive it if they've learned from it going into this new TV series. It's the first property Yoshinari's directed.
>>151726283
Yes.
>>151726309
It looks like they're starting over. We'll have to see.
>>151724931

>>151726242
Is this concrete enough for you?
http://tv.littlewitchacademia.jp/onair/index.html
>>151726319
Funny, I didn't see it that way.
I saw a young person with good intentions that let her obsession get the better of her and lead to poor decisions that hurt others, just as many young people are wont to do. But she made it up in the end. Perhaps I'm just old.
I fucking hope there's a group subbing this
>>151726512
This also clarifies, the eps do appear on Netflix but it's last in the airing order in Japan, and more importantly they do seem to be weekly (every monday, starting on the 9th).
>>151714570
looks decent desu
https://youtu.be/vdy1UmyehsE
>>151726540
That is what happened, that's what the plot is. I'm not saying that isn't what the plot is.
It's just that in that plot, if we're following along with the person who got too demanding and in her complete lack of self-awareness ended up turning her friends away, and then we stick with her beyond that, it's a very delicate balance for the director to keep her likable.
>>151726512
Oh looks like netflix is going to make this a weekly series.
thank fucking god
>>151726664
Yeah, about that. That mivht be just the date for japanese netflix, and for filthy gaijins like us they might release all episodes at once once it ends airing in Japan
We still don't have concrete source if this is not what is happening

Why?
Why do you people keep insisting this is necessary?
Stop demanding directs whitewash their characters just so you can find them to be people you might want to be friends with.
>>151723035
They are aiming for the being enjoyed by adults and children, or at least that's what they said in an interview
>>151727057

I think he's said Diana is his favourite at one point, in another interview he's said he likes them all:
>Who is the director's favorite character?
>I think I like all of the characters except Akko.
>Akko's one of those characters that kind of moves on their own and she troubles me a lot.
He's saying he dislikes Akko less because he doesn't like her as a character, more that he dislikes her as a character he has to write. It's obviously a different perspective to us.
He's also said:
>Will there be an episode specific to Diana?
>You know,
>Money can solve everything.
>If we can get MP (money points) we can do anything
>What do you want the next story to be? Can we get a focus story on Diana and Chariot?
>If we get a chance, we'd like to cover their story.
>>151727234
Okay, you're misunderstanding what I'm saying and that's my fault, I should choose my words more wisely.
There's a distinction between being a likable character and having appeal. The plot demands she become unlikeable because she ends up pissing off her friends.
But if we are to stick with her through the whole story, she still needs to have appeal, to us, who have more insight into her character and why she behaves as she does than the other characters. There are plenty of compelling fictional characters who are real assholes, but we enjoy watching them because they have appeal.
As I said, it's a fine balance. Her selfishness and lack of self awareness is grating for some people.

Ha!
Now do Sucy!
>>151729525
Guns aren't outright illegal, plenty of farmers have guns. If it's set up north, which it is most of the time, then guns shouldn't be too hard to get hold of, considering they're fucking wizards.

>hurr durr just shoot voldemort
Why do idiots keep bringing this up whenever HP is mentioned?
Muggle devices don't work at all near Hogwarts Castle, due to a charm placed on it. The same charm could easily have been used by Voldemort.
And before someone says it - an elite sniper team couldn't kill Voldemort either because they couldn't perceive or interact with him at all. Like the house in London that Harry and others live in during the last book. It existed between two other houses but no muggle could ever see it. It literally couldn't be interacted with by muggles at all - like it existed in a pocket dimension.
>>151729973
>>>/b/

I recall that's just electrical devices. Most guns operated by civilians don't have electric parts.

also your forgetting the government has knowledge of the wizarding world, are you telling me they have absolutely not contingency plan for possible secterian violence from an entire arm of society that actively tries to hide its existence, considering they have such strict gun laws id doubt they'd sit back while some noseless psychopath starts killing people with his flashy lightstick and actively promoting magical nazism.

You're forgetting Maidragon and KonoSuba are airing too. The former for inane studio shitflinging and the second simply by virtue of the fanbase size.

>>151731641
Anon is gay and ashamed at the boner Amanda gave him.

Looks like I was right, it's just one single shitter trying too hard to shit on LWA due to all the deleted posts obviously being a samefag
>>151727571
Akko pls.
>>151726144
I like her and she has best expressions.
But almost every other girl is just more interesting. Akko has that Ryu from Street Fighter vibe, meaning that her character is just being a main character.
And you can't help but get really irritated by character who means well, but fucking won't listen when people say no, stop, don't touch scroll with a song your friend values a lot, you might ruin it.
>>151731641
It was a school slice of life with a magic twist. Terrible pacing and little payoff for the festival wankery. At least the first OVA had a sense of adventure and excitement to it.
Prediction: TV series is magic K-on. And you fuckers will eat it all up.
>>151732284
I think that word should be a bannable offence
>>151732364
>>>/gaia/
>>151732284
Try to defend the snorefest that was the second OVA. TV series will have no worldbuilding or anything. Just girls hanging out at their school doing cute shit.
I just wish it was OVAs instead.
Let's be honest, best part about My LIttle Witch academia was animation, it was marvelous.
I don't think TV budget will give us the same quality. By no means I expect it to be shit, I am just afraid of a downgrade.
>>151731641
Akko's character suffered to make the OVA's main point of development (her spat with Lotte) significant in the first place which felt extremely contrived.
>>151732462
>trigger
>world building
Go read Harry Potter or something, fag.
>>151732462
>tv series has no world building
>yoh yoshinari stated that the tv series will focus on the world building aspect because the movies lacked them
>>151732486
>I don't think TV budget will give us the same quality.
maybey they can get some government money,
japan has been trying to promote its media nowadays.
>>151732197
If anything, more episodes means more involved stories. From the OVA2 commentary:
>If I had twenty or so more minutes (50 minute run time of episode 2) I might be able to something more adventurous, like Akko saving the world!
>But it's all up to MP! (Mana points) Money
>We do have an epic story waiting that we had in mind for this episode which we didn't end up using.
>If we do get the money, we'd love to do it.
>What do you want the next story to be?
>I'd like it to focus on Akko's school life, but I'd also like to tackle bigger issues and problems.
>>151714646
>shit animation under the direction of Yoshinari
He will force them to work to death
>>151732197
>It was a school slice of life with a magic twist.
Motherfucker, that's the whole damn reason it's so likable and fun. I tend to loath "slice of life", as I find it boring and pointless. The magic added in, on the other hand, makes it fascinating, as it isn't about normal and mundane shit like muggle school and whiny family life "with a comedy tweest, ha-hyuck"!.
>>151732611
this plus theres the new interview which an anon partly translated from older thread:
animeanime.jp/article/2016/12/26/31933.html
>Interview with Yoshinari. Details:
>They decided to start from Akko's arrival to the school to work on the world building and the mysteries of Luna Nova. He felt that the world in the movies felt a bit small and wants to expand it.
>One of the reasons he decided to do a TV series over more movies is that there are many things he wants to do. For example, in a movie the focus would always be around Akko but in a TV series he can even give focus to characters like Amanda or Constance.
>Even if Yoshinari tried to trim it for a TV series, they still ended up having a large amount of unique mob characters on screen.
>Yoshinari wants to make a show for kids that can be enjoyed by adults because Trigger has done nothing of the sort.
>In terms of the story, he wants to balance surprising developments and delivering on the audience expectations. He mentions Gurren-Lagann as contrast, because Gurren-Lagann was a show that followed the usual pattern of super-robot anime.
>He picked Hori as main animator because Hori is someone that can animate magical creatures and make them feel real. He says that drawing magic is easy but drawing magic that feels real is harder.
>In terms of the feel, they're aiming for something that combines the feel of a Japanese magical girl anime with the more classical foreign image of a wizard (like in Lord of the Rings or Merlin from the Arthur legend)
>He hopes to be able to make the characters interesting and deep in the long term.
>I'll have to actually stream a fucking anime
This isn't the future I was promised.

If anything I want some focus on Jasminka. Give us some justification for her existence.
Amanda and Constanze were great additions to the cast, and they had immediate appeal (Constanze was even in sketches from back when they were planning the first film).
All Jasminka does is sit there and eat and be fat. I'm sure in the hands of someone more skilled a lot could be made of that, but they seemed to be struggling, it felt like they added this character and didn't know what to do with her. Her having no purpose could be a joke in itself but they kinda wasted that too.
Like, at the end when they used her to catapult Akko, that would've been a great payoff if up until that point the other girls occasionally commented on how she does fuck all, you know, actually acknowledge it.
>>151733773
Also, I wonder what her personality was going to be when she wasn't fat...

Getting excited is the first step toward disappointment.
As someone who has been to every single con Trigger has been to, the one thing I'm not worried is them running out of ideas for a full show. They have a shitload of unused concept art. They had like 5 different stories for the second movie; one of them was more serious and had pictures of Akko crying and one of them (which was co-written by Imaishi) was a crazy action movie with guns and broom-car chases. There was also one with guys.

BDs aren't the only way for a show to make money. Netflix is on the production committee which means they will have paid a significant amount towards production.

ASUKA?!?!?!?!
>>151737992
sorry anon, I got this off an older thread.
they probably forgot to include him, I will for future threads though
>>151738029
They probably did it on purpose to avoid shitposting about Imaishi I am guessing.

Ryuuko got the life, Satsuki got the hometown.

>>151738449
Eh, I prefer Siscest.
>>151715515
gainaxfag get out
She is appearing in the TV show, right? They wouldn't have bothered to make Lotte a vampire fan otherwise.
>>151725320
Oh, good- with any luck, they'll push it too hard and people will be sick of it before it even airs.
>>151736678

>>151732667
>Yoshinari and Takafumi Hori as the main animators
The sakuga parts are going to look amazing
I hope they dont relase it all at once desu familia
>>151738692
And this matters to my desire to see them make out... how, exactly?
>>151738933

https://youtu.be/kOZZE93-RFY
Are there any other artists that are looking forward to it?
Pic related is Dowman Sayman.
We need more of akko's thighs
HAPPY NEW YEAR from Akko, Lotte and Sucy
Is this what I think it is?
>>151717588
Akko pls.
>>151739410
HNNMNMMGGGG, the trio are a cute
>>151738736
You might not like him as a director, but he's unquestionably a great animator.
I want Sucy to be my girlfriend
>>151739410
>Sucy with hair tied up
Hmng : ) indeed
>>151739569
Would you make fun of her secret eye?
>>151738611
Probably. It's just a question of what her role is.Tragic yuri story with Lotte please.
>>151738871
It's airing weekly, starting in about 6 days. Eps come out on nip netflix last in order only after the TV broadcasts, so it isn't really a big factor here.
Is Trigger the bro studio? Just look at them.
>>151739569
Do you think Sucy uses her potions for kinky shit, like she could make an Ecstasy Potion or a Big Dick Potion?
I want Sucy to drug my food, she is cute!
>>151739954
Imashi looks like slav
>>151739154
>Dowman Sayman
I hope he draws more of them.
Everything he does is gold.
Just posting the best girl
>>151739410
This picture makes me wonder if Akko loans her friends kimonos and other Japanesey things.
>>151740085
Good man.
>>151739954
I was going to ask where Yoshinari is but then I realized he's probably animating.
>>151733825
Definitely the grand-motherly kind that is a total sweetheart doormat.
>>151714570
i don't get how this is well received. it's like some straight to DVD ching-chong Harry Potter ripoff
>>151740895
It has """that""" potential
>>151726542
Way ahead of you. :)
>>151722617
>>151722547
wait a minute. They look familiar.
>>151738611
I want her to show up so badly. She'd probably be my favorite.
>>151722617
Curry nigger's still a nigger.
>>151741350
But /b/ is the designated shitting street!
I'd rather poo in the loo.
>>151725457
>>151729421
Rowling confirmed that the average wizard is fucking shit and could get killed easily by a bum with a gun but Voldemort was actually protected by horcrux crap.
>>151714709
Genki is love, but everything else you said is retarded. Seek help.
Thread reminded me to watch the Parade movie
I like the mild fanservice in the form of thighs
>>151739954
I want to fuck all of them, no regrets.
>>151728545
>>151729367
actually it's mentioned briefly in a later harry movie, that he had a wand which did not accept him, so it would fuck up his spells all the time, later on he just took a proper wand and used it for what he was known best
