I think they tried to make her more flawed so that she would have more room to grow as a character, but went overboard with it and took it too far to the point where most of the bad things that happened in the OVA depended on Akko's character being unreasonably bitchy.

But I mean, she's in her 1st (or second?) year of middleschool so she's right smack dab in the crunchy center of first menses territory. It's not really surprising that she'd be a little troubled when going through that terrible teen phase all women hit

So who exactly is going to be this show's Voldemort (or Bellatrix)?

I don't think a monster can be used as the arc villain like they did in the movies, though it's entirely possible the villain in question could be a mad scientist rather than a lich seeing as the witches don't live in secret

anon i'll be honest with you. I think the storytelling of the first movie is great but it lacked worlbuilding on that front.

the tv series improved the world building aspect as well as trying to keep the overall charm of the first ova.

>>
>>152024317
>>152024188

I dont really think so. 2nd OVA actually I found her super relatable. Sure, I obviously wasn't over the top hyper genki like she was most of the time, but I did have a scenario like that when I was in high school and in charge of a reasonably sized student driven event. I ended up letting my passion and desire to make it the "best thing ever" from my point of view at the time get in the way with what everyone else wanted. It put me into a similar situation as Akko, and her relationships/character growth went through developments that were pretty similar to what I actually experienced IRL from making the same mistakes.
>>
>>152024583
Her last name was a reference to a Filipino word for witch/sorcerer.

Yeah, she failed to account for the feelings of those around her, she was too stuck in the dream of what she wanted to do. In the end she felt bad about it though, and everything ended up good in the end. They worked through their issues in a way that seemed natural too. No person is perfect, especially at that age.
>>
>>152024692
No OP yet, only ED. And its just you.
>>
>>152024759
Nah it's the OP. They just played it at the end like they do with a lot of the first episodes.
>>
I forgot how cute Akko was. I can't help from sexualizing her when they always show her in various positions every time she falls, though.
>>
>>152024672
the character development doesn't mean i have to forgive her for all she did even if her friends do. She was just straight up rude and irresponsible. When she messed up lotte's scroll she was nonchalant about it.

>>152024673
Yeah she's much better here because she been treating people kindly but we have to wait to see what they'll do for her. I'm still on edge about her getting a magical wand that belonged to a powerful witch that she can seemingly use at any time with no drawbacks. Especially for someone that hasn't learned magic and is just learning how to be a witch.

So, what if they just take the Harry Potter route?

They have enough episodes considering this is two cour. It was established that they will be in school for 3 years. It could take place over 3 "arcs", each around 8 episodes in length. Each arc gets progressively more serious and covers a school year, just like Harry Potter.

>>152025255
They're 15. The lady at the end says that they will be there for the next 3 years, in developed nations secondary schooling lasts until you are 18.

So they're either 15 and in high school or 13 and in middle school.

Just for reference though, school year structuring works differently depending on where you live.

For example, where I live Middle School isn't even a thing and you start High School at the age of 13-18.

Do we know what country the academy is based in?
>>
>>152025474
Akko is Gryffindor

Their academia is obviously based on the japanese system since that's what their audience would understand.
They have 3 years of middle school and 3 years of highschool.

Also highschool typically ends when people are still 17, whether they're in a 3, 4, or 6 year HS system. People typically turn 18 after graduating unless they have a weird birthday that causes them to start elementary school a year late or end up repeating a grade for whatever reason.

naw, Slytherins have natural affinity for potions, general disregard for the sanctity of life, and put the study and advancement of magic above other morals.

Ravenclaws meanwhile, are all about strictly following the rules, and being proper as fuck.

Hufflepuffs are just the miscellaneous dorky ones.

Having just watched the OVA and first episode for the first time, I think the former was more impactful. I get that more things are going to be fleshed out and things like the girls' friendships are going to be gradual changes, but just comparing Shiny Chariot's show, it tried harder to be flashier with so many different shots of the crowd and more fantastical magic. The OVA ended with a barrage of fireworks, but that's more natural, you know? It felt like Akko formed a deeper connection in the first show (as I did) where in the second it had too much fluff, maybe because it's a retelling and it's trying to one-up it. It cheapens the experience imo. At the same time the fake monster was wimpy and overall I didn't like how dark everything looked. But I'm still really interested in the new story and characters. The animation was still really impressive and it's one of the things I'm looking forward to the most.

Akko must have entered school a year late then.

If she's 16 and this is high school and it's going for 3 years based upon a Japanese education system then the usual age should be 15.

And as I said, school structuring is different depending on where you are.

Japan goes to the age of 18, as does Britain, Australia and many other countries. Though it is true that in Japan high school is non-compulsory so you can just leave at the age of 15 after middle school.


Where does secondary schooling end at 17? America?

Maybe the chains might mean that its beastly or whatever. Like the broom has a personality or character and for whatever reason Akko is pure enough to ride it.

>>152025902
the end of Chariot's show with Akko looking at her awestruck is much better in the OVA. The shot of her back and then the reflection on Akko's eyes just sell it better than the more generic layouts we got in the TV show.

Aside from that I don't think there's much of a difference besides the obvious fact the OVA had much more methodical and polished animation
>>
>>152025841
Someone fucked the innocence and belief right out of her.

Or maybe she caused the big explosion and got rid of her rod in fear.

I'm not sure how much the "Rod is fueled by the power of believing" thing will be true. I know it's a different continuity and all but in the first OVA it's pretty clear that the Teacher could still use the rod if she wanted to.

>>152025852
This is what I imagine.
Chariot goes off to college, gets into the party scene with her college friends and goes off to frat parties 4 times a week to get smashed and dicked. Probably even modified her costume to be more lewd so she could show up in cosplay and draw some more eyes as she gets plastered on cake-flavoured vodka and jello shooters. Bring along the staff one night to put on a bit of a show, y'know "watch the ping pong ball: now you see it, now you don't" kind of thing. One thing leads to another and before she knows it, she's brooming home as the sun rises, half dickered from someone else's mixed drinks and a drop of molly, half hungover from the pre-drinking she did beforehand. Legs so wobbly and core so sore from the train of 3 frat dicks she marathoned like some kind of cock-juggling wonderwoman that she can hardly keep herself upright on her broom. Bit of wind blows, staff is out of her hand, drops into the woods and she's just too fuckin' done from all the drinks and dudes and drugs to go looking for it.

Probably cried herself to sleep when she got home, cried for days while deep down she still couldn't decide if forever losing the wonderful magical gift she'd inherited from a timeless legacy of great witches was worth the gangbang and secretly thinking that it probably totally was, and hating herself for thinking that. Eventually she just got over it and became a teacher because that;s what every partygirl who climbs the mountain of college cock ends up doing when the magic's gone.

They didn't change anything that mattered

Really they shouldn't feel bound to an old OVA for their story, especially not just repeating it for the first few episodes
>>
>>152026638
Essentially yes. It's a restart of the franchise instead of a sequel.

This should have been expected since the OVAs, while successful, never reached anywhere remotely close to the market penetration that a tv series will. Why alienate potential new fans by telling them they have to go back and watch some one-offs from years ago to understand what's happening?

It's a portmanteau of "retroactively canonize"
The idea of canon is a term borrowed from christianity, where it refers to a person who is determined to be a saint after their death. In other words, it's a way of looking at events a posteriori to determine whether they deserve to be written into history as a part of their body of teachings which they preserve by copying and propagating.

It has also been long appropriated in literary circles, where it describes the body of works throughout history considered so valuable or important as art and rhetoric that they deserve to be preserved and taught for the sake of the artistic and intellectual development of future generations, and to serve as examples of human artistic achievement.

In fiction, canon simply refers to the content in a series which is considered part of a cohesive body currently used by the latest, or overall series-defining narrative. To "retroactively" canonize is to change what is and is not considered part of this canon body after the fact, which means to include something in a work and present or use it as being part of canon, and then having a later installment suggest that the previous event was never actually part of the canon.

A retcon is literally what has happened here. The canon for the series has been retroactively changed by its 3rd installment, removing the events of the first and second installment and introducing new events which replace them in the canon. This shit is like the New testament giving Job a happy ending, it's a rather flagrant way to adapt the series to a new audience, but it's an understandable move that produces a desirable outcome.

And at least with the main cast, Trigger got the lore right; you don't put all the witches that are the same in the same groups. You deliberately have one of each type of witch together in a coven. That way they cover for each other's weaknesses.

It's not the same at all. A retcon would carry on the same story while handwaving changes that were made. Having some witch sat "oh you know that magic stone thing, that was just a lie the teachers tell students". This completely deletes everything and starts again entirely different, reboot not retcon. Retcon suggests altering what is there in the same story. Not just saying that story over there doesn't exist in the same universe as this new one.

Man shows that offer potential for speculation is such a double-edged sword.

I always inwardly cringe when /a/ once again finds a dedicated group of morons intent to staying 24/7 in a show's threads exhausting every possible plot thread. Then these two things happen, either a) the thing that have been speculated about happens and you get amazing comments like "Wow, this is so predictable! I wish they threw something completely wacky out-of-left-field! Fuck consistent character/plot writing." or b) the headcanon does not happen and the show is "an immense waste of potential, and overall a terrible show".

This always happens to every speculative original show. Yeah, both sides aren't the same person but both sides are idiots because a) a proper good show foreshadows its plot and b) it's not a show's responsibility to fulfill your headcanon.

It isn't, but this is the absolute pettiest pedantry you could have somehow rationalized as worth posting. Regardless of the word choice here, both of those options produce the same meaning. Canon has an ecclesiastical latin background while continuity has a vulgar latin background, but both trace their etymology to the same latinate root word. Your contention is "nuh uh, it's not dough confection it's a sweetened pastry"

And now your post has wasted both of our times. Please sit down and think about what you've done.

Yoshinari was super friendly, he just might have let me do that. In general the higher ups were quite sociable. The guy with all the toys on his desk was a bit awkward, but he might've just been embarrassed.

Her nationality is official. Her bio say she is from S-E Asia, her surname means Dark Sorcerer in old native Philippine language.
>>
>>152027935
Thats pretty pro of him. The reason I asked is because I meet him twice at both Anime Matsuri and Anime Expo and he seemed really on edge idk. Like he wasn't really thrilled to be there with western fans that pretty much funded the second OVA. I know he was kind of rushed and over worked because he said he was doing shit even in his hotel room.

Well this is quite interesting

>The norm here when the female gets married, they take the family name of the male as their last name so wouldnt that essentially make the father of sucy to be a flip?
No, because traditionally the surname is just meant to be your profession. Sucy is old school witch so her name is oldschool too.

Think those timeslots are ones that the TV stations usually commission themselves and have involvement in the show too. So would probably be a further restriction on creative freedom.

>>152028329
The idea is that in any given group of people, there will be abject failures who simply have 0 potential yet still somehow manage to make it through standardized testing.

So there's a containment house for all the 0 potential faggots. This makes sure that the short bus doesn't hold up traffic and gives them all the benefit of learning to care for other unerachievers, which will be useful when they go out into the real world and are stuck in the service industry or huswifery.

He's overworked, my visit gave him a reason to chill around a bit though, so that probably made him happy.

After having dinner with us in Ginza, he went to a cafe that was having a Little Witch Academia event to help set up and was drawing this until 3am. That evening he gave a speech at the theatre premiere and then probably went back to his usual work. Man is busy.

Think that's just the impression we get because shitposters usually just use "Japan thinks it's shit" as bait and it gets repeated enough that people believe it. Even for Flip Flappers mostly the comments on 2ch were positive in their main threads for the show. They have separate anti threads for extremely negative comments and shitposting on their main anime board.

Depends on what type of job you have and what your expenses are.

I make enough money that I can afford to put 10K in my savings each year even after all my other expenses (I don't penny pinch either, I spend quite a bit on my hobbies). Once I've gotten enough cash together to buy a place for myself and I'm not renting anymore I'll be able to save even more quickly.

Honestly I would drop huge amounts of money on this kind of stuff more myself if I wasn't trying so hard to build equity for my future so I can retire at a reasonable age. Hell, once I'm in a better position I probably will start making some big time purchases.

And before anyone implies that I'm bragging, I am well aware that I don't earn that much comparatively, I'm a middle class person at best money wise so there are tons of jobs that would afford way more spare cash than mine. I'm just making a point that it's not that unusual for people with decent jobs to have spare cash lying around.

>I could be wrong, but isn't the basilisk it's own separate beast? It just coincidentally has the same "turn to stone" powers as the Cockatrice and Medusa.
It is the thing that HP is confusing about. You see, the issue is that the Cockatrice in the story resemble a Basilisk too much. Too much lizard and not enough chicken.
>>
>>152028896
And to make it worse, several foreign language editions of HP outright replaced the Cockatrice name to Basilisk.

>>152028846
The basilisk doesn't even turn you to stone, it just outright kills you with a stare. It's supposed to be a metaphor for potent venom.

HP just tried to mislead the reader by having some kind of "a partial glance just paralyzes you" to make it less obvious which mythical creature was being used.

I never read the books so I never realized there was this whole confusion about it. Super interesting. I was referring to the multi legged lizard things that kill with a glance like in D&D.

Here's the wikipedia page:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basilisk

That's why I assumed the whole "death gaze" was just attributed to a creature that fit the book more. I didn't realize it was actually called a cockatrice at some point since it was a basilisk in the movie.

Single people are always the wealthiest these days. Having a family makes you poor (unless you were already rich when you started) and being in a couple means you usually end up having to share all your earnings and spend a lot on shit.

At least that's what I've observed in my life. The only rich couples in my life are couples where both people have really high paying jobs and only have 1 or zero children.

Lesson is, don't have any children until you are at least moderately rich or you will be poor forever.

I'd upload an image from the theatre premiere, but I'm almost certain it's upside down. Otsuka drove us there. He pulled over to pick us up and in about 5 seconds a police officer on a bicycle gave him a ticket for stopping in a no standing zone.

I'm pretty much out of pictures I'm prepared to share. Rest are me with staff or standing in front of or next to things.

Yoneyama was doing ridiculously nice sketches. Sushio was also doing really good ones for awhile too.

Yoneyama is a fucking beast though. Some of the ones she did were just insane. There was an enormous sketch she did that was like over a foot tall of Katsuhira that was amazing.

I never noticed until now that the snake tail gets surprised too
>>
>>152029075
Oops sorry. Nah I don't have a copy of Deadwood, I might have said I was planning on getting one. Never got around to it as Deadwood copies are just absurdly expensive now, like $300 a pop.

>That's why I assumed the whole "death gaze" was just attributed to a creature that fit the book more. I didn't realize it was actually called a cockatrice at some point since it was a basilisk in the movie.
The lore problem is that Basilisk are banned WMDs in HP. So in the story there shouldn't have a caged one available. Calling it a cockatrice could justify it as being less dangerous than the real deal.
>>
>>152028994
Pretty much this. I live fairly basically buying a few things I want, but nothing outrageously expensive. I go to Japan every year or so to get my weeb fix.

Sup man, another jobless graduate here.

I'm in a situation of being forced to do a post graduate course in nursing of all things simply because it's a degree that guarantees employment at the end if you have high grades.

For reference, I live in Australia, you need a Bachelor's degree to be a Registered Nurse here (you can also be an enrolled nurse with a Certificate instead but that pays like complete shit and you spend all your time emptying bed-pans and doing other gross shit, RN's get payed more and don't have to do as much grunt work). Once you get the degree you can start working and can earn somewhere between 60-80 thousand dollars a year depending on your department. I'm aiming for a job in the Neurology department because that pays the most at just over 80 grand a year and my first degree is in Psychology anyway so I'll be qualified for it.

Just figured I should explain that because Nurses in places like america are quite different in terms of salary and qualifications.

Oh should mention to others as a warning that Anime Matsuri is stupidly strict about what you can get autographed. When Trigger was there you could only get a poster they had ready signed.

Some conventions are stingy/bad about that.

Found this one. It was before the theatre premiere. During Yoshinari's speech he talked about kickstarter and asked us to stand up and a spotlight shone on us. Got to meet the voice actresses and after the movie was over a lot of Japanese people shook my hand.

Might be upside down again.
>>
>>152029237
Well I'm never going back to Anime Matsuri that's already been solved. In the past few years I have had to go to more cons than I normally would go to, in order to get pretty much all the different Trigger staff autographs.

I'm cutting back now that my Kill La Kill poster is pretty much done.

>literally objectively the worst house
its because they're SUPPOSED to be the beast tamers and herbologists
the MC for fantastic beasts is a hufflepuff for example, and it's why if you answer all the questions in the pottermore quiz with those topics in mind you'll 100% get sorted into hufflepuff.

But in the main HP books, JK got lazy fast and wrote it so harry got to be the cool beast tamer kid because he was the MC and friends with hagrid, basically stripping the hufflepuffs of all their worth accidentally..
>>
>>152029353
To be honest I had my expectations low too. I ended up really enjoying it though. Hopefully they can keep it up and it doesn't just trail off into mediocrity.

I'm way too shy for that. There's a picture of me holding a full size scissor blade standing next to Yoshinari. The autism in that photo still embarrasses me.

I took a picture with Vic Mignogna once as a child.

I happened to blink right as the photo went off, and as a result, wound up looking like I was absolutely fanboying out. I hate how I look in photos as a general rule, but that one holds a special place of loathing.

Solomon here. I asked them about PSG. Most of the staff at Trigger WANT to make PSG season 2. They'd really love to. It's a legal nightmare though, so I wouldn't get your hopes up.

Having said that, when I saw the concept art and stuff they were working on it didn't really appeal to me. I'm still kind of meh about it. Neither love or hate it.

Oh yea they announced it at AX and your trip would have been before.

I remember now about your poster. It's the poster for the Trigger Expo. I think they sold it at the Expo as well as the following comiket. At the time there might have been only five in existence.

>>152029355
>>152029369
the quality cant be as good as the ovas tho right?
>>
>>152029702
The animation is obviously not as fluid or polished. But it does pretty well for a tv series so far.

The most important thing is that the "cartooney" nature of the animation is still very much intact.
>>
>>152029662
And it was leaked before then. I was with Tatsuru when he found out. He was pretty pissed.
>>
>>152025943
We homura now?
>>
>>152029702
So far it's better than most seasonal anime, not as good as the OVAs but the artstyle is still the same and it does a pretty good job imitating the quality level of the OVAs.
>>
>>152029754
Really? I don't remember it being leaked. Nobody seemed to know about it before AX and I'm pretty on top of this stuff.

Asenshi has a nicer typesetting and font imo. Deadfish is probably more comprehensible in terms of translation smoothness and accuracy.

>>152029984
No reason to use proper spelling or punctuation for any post by that logic.

Though is a word, shortened from although.
But why stop there? If you are going to shorten it, might as well go all the way.

Deadfish is just a re-encoder. Unless you have trouble playing Asenshi, there's no reason to go with it.
>>
>>152030111
There is a bit of a difference between your examples and someone clearly using it just to shorten a word. Your point still stands in general though.

I'm all for good grammar but yelling at someone for shortening/misspelling a single word is super reddity.
>>
>>152030151
I stayed a week. I didn't have a lot of leave because I had just been over there on a trip when Tatsuru asked me if I'd like to come for the premiere.

It was only a one time thing, but chances are if I was over there and asked them in advance they probably wouldn't mind. Right now though I'd image they are way too fucking busy for that though.
>>
>>152029743
>pretty well
It was far far above average.

So let me get this straight.

- Shiny Chariot does magic shows to inspire kids
- Tells them that believing heart = magic
- Akko is inspired and wants to be a witch
- Other witches don't like magic shows because they think it cheapens magic
- Other witches bully Shiny Chariot so much that her heart stops believing in herself
- Shiny Rod stops working
- She quits and becomes a teacher (Ursula)
- Akko joins academy
- Akko has fun and becomes a witch like Shiny Chariot
- Diana is like the other witches and is stuck up about magic
- Some sort of conflict happens
- Akko saves the day
- Diana (and other witches) realize they were wrong, believing heart, etc. etc.
- Akko becomes new Shiny Chariot
- The end

Is that right?
>>
>>152030258
Yeah, I worded it that way to counteract some of the exaggeration from the other people. It's great but stuff like 10/10 is just too much.

Wow that sounds retarded written out though.
>>
>>152030301
I wouldn't have it any other way.
>>
>>152026943
It won't, keep dreaming LWAfag.
>>
>>152030301
Urusla is Chariot, and Akko is Akko.
There's no correlation between Chariot's and Akko's identities.
>>
Finally watched the episode. Anime is saved.
>>
>>152030381
I think they just meant a "passing of the torch" kind of arc. Akko doesn't even technically have to become Chariot to have this kind of ending.
