Not a chance, but hopefully it will at least stay as good as Luluco.

No way.

I'm sure there'll be some episodes that aren't as good as others, but I'm hoping it'll at least stay consistent enough that it won't be jarring.

Who animated this episode?

The episode was fun but the exposition felt like such a slog:
>witch girls describing the school's financial problems and the nature of the magic highway with Akko happening to overhear them
>Sucy describing the forest and the Cocktraise's pretrification

Show don't tell should be the main principle behind an animation-oriented show. A certain mahou shoujo last year nailed this for most of its run.

>She's both the first and only non-witch to ever be granted admission.

How come? Are the mages inbred and dying out?

>>152047836
I can agree with this,

the episode was pretty solid overall and I hope it'll get better as the series progresses

>>152047568
Why couldn't Berserk get animation like this?

>>152047727
I suspect they'll probably have a couple episodes with action like the first one, but most of the season will be non-action episodes that spare the animators the effort of maintaining good presentation.

They'll probably keep this current style up through episode 2 and 3, though 2 will likely be an exposition episode with an action scene right at the end. From 4 onwards they'll dip into more standard school life stuff and begin working on exposition to build up the mid-run climax near the end of the cours. We'll maybe get another 2 or 3 episodes with a notable action sequence before that climax, but I doubt this is going to be a show with action every episode.

Better to have some dull episodes that still look good and save effort for the big action numbers than have progressively worse-looking action every episode and end up with a schedule that crashes and burns near the end.

>>152047568
Okay anons. From evidence we've gathered from watching the first episode, and British general knowledge, it's been extrapolated that:
>Glytonbury is Glastonbury (obviously)
>Akko, Lotte, Sucy, and other First-Years are either 16 or 17 years old
>Luna Nova is most likely a magical girl's college catering to witches aged 16 to 18

I tried looking for the bridge where Sucy and Akko met on google maps, but there are no streams or rivers between Glastonbury Tor or Glastonbury Abbey (which are in the county of Somerset, United Kingdom). The closest match I could find was a VERY similar-looking bridge that’s actually in Glastonbury, Connecticut, United States. I understand that the show’s aim isn’t to show off an animated replica of Glastonbury, but was this actually the result of a research error made by the production staff?

Less obviously, judging from the blonde kid with the Nintendo 3DS XL and the fact that Diana's lackeys' dialogue imply that episode 1 is set the school day right after the British Easter holidays... Assuming that LWA (TV) isn't set in the future, there are 4 real-life dates Episode 1 could have been set in:
>April 15, 2013
>April 24, 2014
>April 13, 2015
>April 4, 2016

What say you, anons? Anyone else going on Pilgrimage to Glastonbury just to sit on this bench?

>Cocktraise

I'd like to note that the creature is should be called basilisk, we only have cockatrices around because when Gary Gygax was making D&D, he assume basilisk is supposed to be a lizard because IRL there is a species of iguana called "basilisk" and when the first edition was out he learned the mythological basilisk was much more badass mutant chicken, so he included it under made up name.

And there's no way a 1st year at highschool is 17.

The age source is from character design documents originating from the OVA's production. The OVA is set after the characters have been in the school for an undetermined amount of time, while the tv series begins with their entry.
They're probably 14-15 in episode 1 of the tv series.

>>152047568

>>152048197
I remember that Brit school years generally begin in the first week of September. It never started in August, at least in the secondary school and sixth form college I used to study at. However, it seems that Akko enrolled into Luna Nova the day after the Easter holidays ended, on April 15, 2013 at the earliest or April 4, 2016 at the latest. It's not the latest time of year where I've seen a new kid join a year group, but it's still strange. I'm guessing that the production staff weren't aware of that fact. The actual school year started the previous year in September, 2012 at the earliest or September, 2015 at the latest.

LWA isn't set in 'Murica. In the UK, at least in England, the schooling ages are:
>Primary School: 5 to 11
>Secondary School: 11 to 16
>Sixth Form/College: 16-18 (19 if you're taking a third year/Year 14)
>University: 18 and onwards
Middle School is 9-13 IIRC

Akko's of British college age, considering she's a [first year] in what's most likely a magical girl's [college].

>>152047568

The only way to know is to wait and see.

I have yet to watch anything trigger has done besides the LWA OVAs and KLK. With how they handled KLK I'm skeptical of maintaining this level of quality but goddamn even if this is the only episode that is this well done it was a fucking sight to see.

I want to believe but only time will tell how based trigger actually is

They can also run on water for short distances but that's not really relevant.

Trigger managed to maintain consistency in Kiznaiver's production values all the way through.

That show sucked, but it at least looked good, and stayed looking good right through to the end.

>>152048598
because when it came out people were incredibly annoying praising it as the new evangelion (not literally of course) and they turned me off from watching it

Did you guys notice that one of the stars on Shiny Rod started glowing orange when Akko casted her wormhole spell? Maybe Shiny Rod has 7 different powers corresponding with stars on the rod. I'm also interested if there is some meaning in the spell itself or is it just gibberish.

>>152048642
What if witches play by their own rules?

Mages probably don't want their primary school children to mix with muggles, they are likely homeschooled before enrolling Luna Nova.

>both OVAs and the first episode are all resolved with Shiny Rod ex Machina

How can you justify watching this shlock?

>>152048076
>>152048642
Let's also add the fact that she's not living with any parents, relatives, or some other legal guardian besides Luna Nova staff. You have to be at least 16 to legally be allowed to do that here. The UK government wouldn't allow it otherwise

>>152048844
Yes, we had a discussion last thread.

>>152048760
I guess it's better for you that way. Personally I am still kind of sad about downgrade from OVAs to TV series, even though TV series offers really high quality animation in its category.

>>152048980
I seriously doubt they give a fuck about the UK government.

>>152048844
It's probably gibberish.
Every time a series of magic fiction tries to use an actual real-world basis for their magical gibberish, it incites a moral panic among the religious faithful. If they intended to market this shows to children in the west through netflix, they'll avoid anything that could provoke a backlash among parents.

There is none. The movies have zero relation to the show, other than it being the same characters in the same place. Think of it as a reset.

As for plot, I have no idea where they're going to take it. I'd imagine we'll get a good amount of time devoted to Akko and Diana having some sort of rivalry, only for some big bad (like the dragon or so on from the movies) to show up requiring them to unite. I would like to see the show expand on Shiny Chariot though, since her whole falling out of grace was never really explained in the movies.

>>152049410
Which means hopefully this will have the former and not the latter.

The second movie was funded through Kickstarter, many of the anons in these threads contributed.
The TV series was funded the usual way due to the films proving there was an audience for it.

They definitely don't give that many fucks. But even their apathy has restraints, as evidenced in Enchanted Parade.

First off, they acknowledge the medieval Witch Hunts, meaning they know they're not immune to Muggles and their violence. In the actual parade itself, Ursula went to great lengths just for damage control and concealing the actual threat of the giant from the Muggle masses. The ending also didn't imply that the Mayor, the local government figure that broke the giant's seal, had any reason to fear a backlash from the academy. His decision to disregard the seal without any prior consultation implied that his authority was superior to the academy's on that matter despite him just being a municipal-level government figure.

I love how magic seems to be a well known fact in this world yet nobody really cares for it.

QUICK QUESTION

DO I NEED TO WATCH THE MOVIES FIRST OR CAN I START WITH ANIME THANK YOU

>>152049867
http://tv.littlewitchacademia.jp/witchpedia/

They even have a fucking wiki

>Witches
>The history of witches dates is extremely long; the first recorded witch existed at least 2500 years BC. Being a witch is a profession, you become a witch through practice and study. You don't need to be of a witch family to be a witch but you need to have the natural talent for it. Most people won't be able to use magic no matter how hard they train. The use of magic has been relegated through a second plane due to advances in science and technology and these days it is considered a relic of the past. The abuse of magic and crimes committed using magic are extremely forbidden and cruel punishments have been inflicted on offenders.

>Luna Nova
>Luna Nova was founded in the 5th century and has a 1600 year history. Since it's common that magic is an inherited trait, family lines and lineages have been emphasized but due to the lack of successors for many families, due to either children not interest in magic or witches not having daughters, they've been accepting everyone with magic aptitudes in recent years. Luna Nova has many specializations and their students can dedicate themselves to different professions. Due to living among witches all their lives, many Luna Nova students are a bit lacking in their common sense.

>Shiny Chariot's rare card
>Akko's treasure. One of the rarest card from the now extinct Shiny Chariot trading card line. Akko still regrets that she wasn't able to get the most valuable premium card.

>Alcor
>Shiny Chariot's familiar. Has grown old and now lives peacefully with Ursula-sensei.

>Alcor's plushie
>One of Akko's belongings. Made in Japan during the days in which Chariot was popular. Was temporarily given life by Sucy's magic. It seems it can also work as a hat.

Pay for Netflix, rate it 5 stars and recommend it to all your friends.

Buy the BD's when they become available in your country, if they never are then import them.

Or just post Trigger like 30 quid or something.

>>152047568
Who cares about the animation when you have such rich characters and charming story?

>>152049813
I still think episode 17 and 18 were fucking amazing and possibly the the best, but that might be because Satsuki's my favorite character Episode 18 had nonstop action from all the cast, twists, background stories, etc. It was as intense as the first episode in my opinion

I think the low parts of KLK were the trip episodes that felt like absolute filler (were still hilarious though), episode 23 that didn't amount to anything, and the dumb space battle at the very end.

>>152050198

But she's fucking useless outside of her slick dance moves.

>>152050107
It's funded by Netflix
You have that route, or the typical BDs+merch route

You could always mail Yoshinari money in person too with a note that goes along the lines of "I'm a filty pirate but please take my gaijin money your anime made the penis in my heart erect orz"

>>152050226
The rebellion arc (16-18) is possibly the best part of the series.
The problem is that it was followed by the worst 2 episodes, rushed and animated like shit.
Then it picked up with the last Ryuko vs Satsuki fight and stayed strong till the end.

KLK started out as a comfy episodic battle show, before launching into an overarching adventure plot that spanned two arcs. I expect LWA to do the exact same.

Sucy specializes in potions.
Lotte specializes in spirits and fairies.
Amanda is a super-broom rider.
Constance is a technowitch paving the future of witchcraft.

What is Yasna's deal?

>>152050226
The last arc of the show literally only got shat on by /a/ because it wasn't as hype as TTGL

It's the tournament arc that drops the ball for 3 episodes, spikes with the warped transformation/Nui reveal, then goes straight into the gutter as the Osaka arc begins and sort of haphazardly scratches its way out until the festival arc begins

>>152050226
I'm inclined to agree personally. The ending of Episode 17 was always my favorite moment in KLK.

>>152050355
She knows what sweets make you feel better and is happy to share them.

They could definitely produce. There was definitely QUALITY but the biggest letdown was the story

>>152050701
Happiiii Flavah

>>152050638
KLK never dropped in production. It was always inconsistent, and most of its big sakuga moments were in the 2nd half.

>>152050638
>they could handle a show's production without it going all klk again
Kiznaiver wasn't 2 cours and didn't have non stop action in almost every single episode, so it didn't actually prove anything.

>>152050434
The Nui centered episode before the arc begins is the worst one in the entire show

The Osaka arc itself contributes nothing to the show beyond Imaishi's brand of humor and the reveal that Nudist Beach is a complete joke. It has a better high point than the tournament arc but still wastes a lot of time

>>152049060
Gayuma when?

>>152050780
And introduce the further evolutions of the student council ultima uniforms.

>>152050760
It was inconsistent yes, but aside from ep 4 (that was a joke episode that worked because of the choppy animation) no other episode in the first half was animated as badly as 13, 19 and 20.

>>152050589
The amount of fantastic character designs that go unused in this series is criminal. Thankfully we now have the TV show to expand things.

Inou battle and Kizanaiver were both shit
KlK had too much QUALITY

The path is clear for LWA to become their best show ever.

When she shatters Senketsu? Aside for the lack of animation in the climax, it's an alright episode.
>The Osaka arc itself contributes nothing to the show beyond Imaishi's brand of humor and the reveal that Nudist Beach is a complete joke. It has a better high point than the tournament arc but still wastes a lot of time
Takarada was great, and so was the Ryuko and Satsuki fight.
But for the series as a whole, it was needed for Ryuko to recover after going berserk and for Satsuki to defeat every opposition including Nudist Beak and earn the trust of her mom.

>>152050905
Nah

>>152050917
Sucy herself is an immigrant

>>152050869
seriously, it's dumb how sucy was more of a bitch during this episode than diana ever was through both OVAs

>>152050917
That's understandable, but sacrificing her is already over the line, and yet she also wanted to sacrifice Lotte, which did her no harm.

>>152050958
They are both foreigners to the land they are in, as well as each other, so the point stands.

>>152050968

Diana never really was a bitch in the movies though. She just comes off as uppity and the sort of "if you're not getting A's in classes you're being a lazy bum". To be fair, Akko was a fucking goofball in the movies too, which only proved Diana's point.

>>152050869
>>152050968
Diana is going to trump Sucy in her dickery. Just you wait

LWA and Sex & Violence are the only good Trigger works

>>152051009
Diana also didn't want a goofball to soil Red Chariot's already soiled reputation.

>>152050502
>edibles
Potionmakers don't only make edible stuff. There's acids and poisons.

>>152050985
The real question is, what was Sucy's original plan? Was she going to lure witches into the forest after matriculation and people would just end up missing. She's lucky she picked people with plot armor.

>>152050198
>Amanda and Constanze planning a heist
yes please

>>152050869
She cares more about her hobby than anything else. She isn't an actual bitch in the sense of of wanting others to feel bad. She just doesn't care enough, not even about herself.
She gets right up into the Minotaurs face as well as face the dragon with no hesitation.

She's an autist if you will.

>>152051071
>Akko only hangs out with her because she doesn't have that many friends.
That´s not true.
Akko knows that Sucy has a good heart.

>>152051035
This.
Diana was a hardcore fan that knew how to hide her powerlevel, while Akko came to school with a pussy deflector and did the ninja run.

>>152051089
i don't think her initial intentions were to use people as bait

she probably had something else up her sleeve but is good at making due with things that just happen and using it to her advantage

Regardless, it's skrillex, a very popular producer.
And say what you want about him and wubwubs, Recess was great.

Sucy is for kinky stuff, like watersports and bestiality.

What's Amanda's ethnicity?
Akko is nip
Diana's obviously a brit
Sucy is a flip
Constance is german
Lotte and Yasna are probably from the magic world

>>152051945
UMIDAAAAA!

>>152051959
I'm going to save you the trouble
She appears in one still image in the first episode, that's it.
Wait for episode 3 which revolves around her, Amanda and Jasminka.

I'd like to propose a theory
>there are two Little Witch Academias
>first, planet LWA which we saw in the OVA and Luluco
>then, the Academy on earth which the TV series will take place on
>they just happen to be almost exactly the same with minor differences, such as the Sorcerers Stone and the Ley Lines

>Sucy is wrapped in a beach towel the whole time and you still can't even see her feet
FUND IT

How come this underdog story hits me so hard when others don't? I think it has to do with how eager and excited she is about being a witch. Even in the ovas I'd also get that floaty feeling when she's excited watching the witch show when she was young.

>David lee

Who?

>>152051945
That seems highly unlikely, now, a hotspring episode? Now that sounds like a deal.

>>152052033
>implying Sucy wouldn't wear a burkini

>>152052024
I'd like to disapprove your theory, if that's ok.

For some reason that'd be even hotter than seeing her in a bikini

>>152052091
The bullying reminds you so much of your childhood?

>>152051762
I can't believe Akko prefers Van Patten's card to mine.

>>152052024
I mean thats' basically canon

>>152052183
Probably

Because she's cute and innocent

Just wait for her to duel Diana and make her hotblooded shounen comeback after enduring Diana's cliche "How could an inferior being like you ever dream of being a witch? This is reality, fool" speech

Akko whoops her ass and makes Diana believe dreams can come true again

That's Netflix VP.

Question:
How many cute little witches does it take to make a good anime?

Who's going to get Avada Kedavra'ed?

>>152052254
A good director such as yoh yoshinari
