[Review] Little Witch Academia

in #review7 years ago

What to do if you have the opportunity to learn magic? Are you going to rule the world with terror or save a lot of people. But what happens if the magic still exists in modern times? That's a bit of a picture of Little Witch Academia.

Tells Atsuko Kagari, who is called Akko, a man who has no blood of wizarding descendants and intends to learn magic to make people smile because of the influence of his idol as a child, Chariot. Is this anime worth watching? Let's check out the following review.

A story filled with magic

Watching Little Witch Academia might remind us when we first saw Harry Potter as a child. Yes at first glance his concept is similar: the main character goes to the magic school to learn witchcraft. The difference is the main character at Little Witch Academia, Akko has no magic talent at all that ended up being mockery of some of his schoolmates. Besides the world at Little Witch Academia has also advanced so that magic becomes an ancient thing.

Of course talking about magic is closely related to the incantation. There will be many magic spells that we may hear and make us cry and feel like chanting "Metamorphie Faciesse", "Noctu Orfei Aude Fraetor", or riding a broom and saying "Tia Freyre" hoping the broom will fly.

Character development!

Little Witch Academia has a lot of characters, ranging from the tomboyish to the typical chairman of a cool smart osis here. And I like almost all characters have good development especially development with Akko, so that in the last episodes will cause more feelings on the character.

The most noticeable is the development of Akko. I felt once Akko who had looked very annoying, like to impose a will, and very obsessed with Chariot, became a strong-hearted character and I can not help liking her <3

Trigger is typical

This anime is an original anime besides the famous Trigger studio with Kill la Kill, and some of the studio's frontman is ex Gainax who is famous for Tengen Toppa Gurenn Lagann. Watching this anime will look very animated Trigger's elegant and impressed lebay, especially on the last episode where there is a peak battle scene.

Also I really like is the parody of Tengen Toppa Gurenn Lagann on episode 18 when Akko with Constantine makes a robot that has some kind of Giga Drill Breaker. I could not help laughing happily at that moment.

Less of the main story content

Perhaps the deficiency of this anime is the lack of main story content. In the first cour of this anime you will be treated to a number of filler episodes that are not related to the main story. The core of the new story begins to feel when entering the second courage when the emergence of a new character, Croix. Extreme I can say you can skip many episodes and still will understand his story.

Fortunately his own filler episode is quite interesting, though some are pretty boring. But there is also a very close relationship with character development.

Verdict: Noctu Orfei Aude Fraetoro /100

Little Witch Academia is an original anime that managed to steal the hearts of some people, especially Trigger studio fans. This anime is very light to watch and do not have to think hard to understand, is perfect to watch when tired through the day.

If you like fantasy anime, then Little Witch Academia must be watched.

Kaptain

This is the second two-cour series Trigger after Kill La Kill. As I said earlier in JOI Spotlight, I much prefer this series to Kill Kill Kill thanks to its more focused themes and stories. Akko is a sucking wizard who tries to be a witch who is not too lame to inspire more people from start to finish. I myself tend to like the fantasy story where the fantasy of the world begins dying, either because of the loss of magic or technology that has been pursued, even through the utility of magic.

Thanks to the worldbuilding effort, Little Witch Academia actually still holds a lot of potential stories. As Chariot is "paralyzed" and starts searching for heirs, Akko is beginning to fly, deepening the background of other seknder characters, other school visits, and much more. Yoshinari himself said it took 3 seasons to tell all the stories he wanted to convey, so I still hope Akko's adventure will continue.

If there is one thing I really love from this season, Chariot plotline is rushed so the build-up is not enough. Personally I would also appreciate that Dream Fuel Spirit from the beginning is a Chariot idea and not a hoax from Croix, it can make it a more tragic and interesting character.

Little Witch Academia, who like the 3 episodes of the rules I still criticized for playing too safe, at least to the end can present the animated qualities typical veteran Gainax, this is a series that I will gladly see more than twice, because this series is very familiar How to make a climax scene.
