I going to be honest, i had not any expectative about this anime, even when i hear that wass ne of the best on 2017,
I finally watch it becuase i don't know, and i just can say WOW. I realy enjoy the series. It's fun without be inmature, the dramatic parts are fine, the history is simple but is catchy. I actually think that it becomes in one of my favorites,manly the second part. When the history had well difined the characters, starts to the main conflict, and it works.
I really think that this is the clain of anime that everybody must to watch at less once on their lives.
I put 8, but it's really an 8,4.
Despite all the god points that i describe, the history had some little mistakes.
For example, the first part of the history really fell like it's going nowhere, like a clasical students anime but with magic. From the episode 12 is when it starts to take a diferent way.
I really enjoy and I recomend it.
I think its a very underrated show;. Cause this show is AMAZING! i really recommend it. I loved it, thats all i can say.
Overall, this show is a lot of fun to watch. The animation is smooth and unique (what else can be expected from Trigger?), the art style is quirky and eye-catching, and the character designs are all fascinating and eye-catching, the exception being Akko, whose generic look works to stress her normality compared to those around her anyways. If I did have one complaint, it would be that the world building is vague and overlooked. The magic system is nebulous and not well outlined, the concept surrounding the spirits and magical creatures isn't as explored as it could've been, and the setting itself is more vague than a thirty-second-long game review. Still, it's more than worth the time to watch it as a relatable story about a girl who won't stop climbing the latter no matter how many times she slips or gets kicked from above.
With such short watch time (around 9hrs total) the series is able to do so much. There is nice character development for Akko as well as for side characters, some good laughs and beautiful animation. The story is well planned and every thing connects so nicely in the end. People who had a hard time in life but they over come the circumstances will sure be able to relate with Akko. It had me in tears at times for some reason.
The thing I liked the best about this anime is that it dose not use cheap tricks used in other series. There are no cliff-hanger at the end of any episode nor at the end of the series and almost no filler screen time. Also there is no fan service, because it doesn't need to have it, as it can captivate the viewer without that.
Ten outa ten baby, one of the best anime Ive ever watched.

I am NOT among the demographic group who would normally watch anime. However, my oldest daughter loves anime and speaks the language...so she often introduces me to various anime that she thinks I'd enjoy. My favorites are the quirky ones, such as "Azumanga Daioh" or "Haikyuu!!" (a volleyball anime)...not those involving mecha or card games. I have nothing against these other types of anime...but I prefer the stranger 'little' ones...and "Little Witch Academia" is certainly different and fits this bill.
The story is very similar to the general plot of Disney's "The Owl House" but not as crazy nor Hieronymous Bosch-like! It's the story of Akko, a very eager but terrible student at all all-girls school for witches. It's a lot like the Harry Potter series...if Harry were MUCH more eager and MUCH more incompetent. It helps that some of the other characters (Sucy especially) are a lot of fun and the stories incredibly unique and fun.
Overall, a cute and enjoyable show which is available now on Netflix. And, if you do watch, you do have the choice of watching it in an English dub or, as I did, with Japanese and English subtitles.

- TriviaOriginally, Andrew Hanbridge was going to confess his feelings to Atsuko Kagari and they would end up together this idea was ultimately abandoned because Yô Yoshinari hated it and may have meant that Akko was working for Andrew's sake and not for herself. However Erica Mendez (Atsuko Kagari's English voice actress) and Lucien Dodge (Andrew Hanbridge's English voice actor) are together in a relationship in real life.
