Little Witch Academia – 15[Chariot of Fire]
Shiny Chariot rides once again and I think that’s where most of the animation went besides the showcase at the end of the episode. Wise choice though as it shows that Ursula hasn’t dulled much in her later years. She still seems intent on keeping her identity secret from Akko though this may be because finding Chariot is her main driving force at the moment. We at least are getting some idea of Chariots past as it seems she and Akko are a lot more similar than first thought. Akko and Diana seem to mirror the relationship of Ursula and Croix in their youth. However it would be a strange twist of fate if Akko ended up under Croix’s wing while Diana and Ursula teamed up. Diana has started to look into Ursula so she could very well figure out her true identity.
I feel that Akko’s nativity is getting to be a bit much as her trust of Croix is so much that even when walking up to her lair she doesn’t seem to register how ominous it is. Though Ursula is at fault as well seeing as she doesn’t seem to be making an effort to warn Akko of Croix’s intentions. I don’t really understand why she covered for her when Akko woke up as letting Akko know of the danger Croix possesses would be a very good idea. Though what is Croix after exactly? Others besides Ursula to harbor doubts over her changes to magic and with good reason. Amanda makes a point that with her innovations magic has essentially been supplanted with Science, making it indistinguishable. It does feel like with the technological upgrades it’s getting that something more personal has been lost. However another reason to be concerned is that this direction for magic is heavily dependant on Croix. In fact she pretty much holds full control of magic power distribution with this system and she seems like just the kind of person to take full advantage of that. Those routers may allow magic to be used off grounds but who’s to say she didn’t place a backdoor in them to allow her to shut them down whenever it’s convenient for her. It’s getting to the point that when she makes her move, nobody would be able to do anything about it. For everyone would depend on her inventions at that point and she would have them by the balls.
Kudo’s to the commenter on the last post who correctly guessed the involvement of Yggdrasil as Ursula points out the tree as being the source of magic power. I originally wrote it off as I thought it was strange to involve Norse mythology when so far it’s been mostly Celtic(Though we did have a dragon named Fafnir so it’s not the first time it’s popped up.) but if Wikipedia is trustworthy then mentions of a world tree are in Celtic folklore as well though that tree was unnamed. The final bit of exposition that Ursula gave at the end of the episode was impressive animation wise but admittedly only really served to inform us of what we already know. It clued in Akko to what she needs to do and the main new information to be gleaned from it is that the seven words unlock some sort of reality warping magic and the bit about Yggdrasil. In that regard I feel like unsealing the words can only really lead to trouble as Croix could swoop in to take the magic once Akko has done her job.

Reviews for "The Impact of Chariot's Magic on the Magical Community in "Little Witch Academy"
1. Jane - 2/5 - I was really excited to watch "Little Witch Academy Chariot" as I loved the original series. However, I was quite disappointed with this spin-off. The story lacked depth and was not engaging. The characters felt one-dimensional and their development was rushed. The animation quality was also not up to par with the original series. Overall, I found this spin-off to be quite underwhelming and would not recommend it to fans of the original show.
2. Mike - 3/5 - As a fan of "Little Witch Academy," I had high hopes for "Chariot." Unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations. The pacing of the story felt off, with certain plot points rushed and others dragging on. The character dynamics also felt forced and didn't have the same charm as the original series. While the animation was visually appealing, it wasn't enough to make up for the lackluster storytelling. If you're a die-hard fan, you may still enjoy it, but for me, "Chariot" was a disappointment.
3. Sarah - 2/5 - I found "Little Witch Academy Chariot" to be quite boring and predictable. The plot followed a formulaic structure, and there were no major surprises or twists. The characters lacked depth, and their interactions felt forced. The animation, while decent, didn't stand out compared to other anime series. Overall, I was left feeling underwhelmed and uninterested in continuing with the show. If you're looking for something fresh and original, I would recommend skipping "Chariot."
