Little Witch Academia (2017 series)/Characters

Characters from  include:

Atsuko Kagari
"I finally made it. A dream come true. I'm in the place where Chariot learned to use magic!"

- Akko

An enthusiastic person who starts life in the Luna Nova Wizarding School. She's not too good at magic, but she's determined to learn. She goes by the nickname "Akko".

Nationality: Japan


 * Ambiguously Bi: She receives Ship Tease with both Diana and Andrew. She starts off the series getting teased with Andrew, especially in the episode "Bee Affection". In that same episode, a small tease between her and Diana is created as the love bee stings Diana, and Diana gives a confession of love while essentially under the influence of a Love Potion. As the series progresses, she tends to be teased with Diana more, although Andrew still remains as a distant target. Her sexuality is never confirmed in the series.
 * Amusing Injuries: The world needs Atsuko Kagari's DNA. Her DNA, when injected into any human body, ensures the recipient can survive any injury possible, from failed spells and falling off broomsticks, to surviving explosions and going Mach 5. Good luck finding an episode in which some sort of amusing injury doesn't happen to Akko.
 * Ascended Fangirl: Growing up, Akko has always been a big fan of Shiny Chariot and her magic shows. Her first ascension was being accepted into Luna Nova, where Shiny Chariot attended. Her second ascension was receiving Professor Ursula as a mentor, helping her learn magic and become more like Chariot..
 * Ash Face: Often, when she fails a magic spell (which is a funny way of saying "almost every time she casts a spell"), she gets this.
 * Badass Adorable: We've got a really really fancy spellcasting wand, the ability to perform basic magic, determination, and No Indoor Voice. Akko, in the latter episodes, is perfectly equipped to be a badass. The "adorable" part comes from the fact that she's a Kid Hero and doesn't really know what she's doing.
 * Berserk Button: Hey, Akko! Shiny Chariot sucks! Oh no. What's that dust cloud up in the distance. Here, pass over the telescope. Is that... Atsuko Kagari? And is she charging over to the All The Tropes HQ at over 300 kilometers an hour, on a broomstick she can't even control? Oh no, we've angered her good. We've done it by talking bad things about Shiny Chariot. She's going to Noctu Orfei Aude Fraetor us into oblivion! Quick, apologise to her, say good things about Shiny Chariot. Sorry Akko, Shiny Chariot is like, the world's best witch! Her magic shows are, like, super good! As you can see from this totally realistic, 100% guaranteed not hypothetical scenario, you should not insult Shiny Chariot in front of Akko.
 * Blithe Spirit: Her status as a Muggle gives her a new perspective of the magic world, and thus she aims to change the status quo. Examples of this include pouring the bucket labelled "creativity" over the traditional Samhain Magic Festival in episode 13, and helping Constanze with a battleship-turned-mecha in episode 18.
 * Break the Cutie: She's quite heartbroken in episode 22, after finding out.
 * Brilliant but Lazy: She's not conventionally "brilliant" in the first half of season 1, but she is quite "lazy". Her determination makes up for the lack of brilliance, and when she really wants it, she can accomplish impressive feats and become a talented witch. There is a reason why . In the second half, though, the "brilliant" part gets a boost, while the "lazy" part wears off.
 * Broken Pedestal:.
 * Butt Monkey: Because she isn't the best with magic, episodes where she doesn't get hurt, yelled at, or fail to cast a spell are rare.
 * Catch Phrase: Early on, "alright!" is one. It gets dropped as the series progresses, though.
 * Character Development: Her visit to a magical fountain in episode 6 made her realise there is no easy way to cheese the learning of magic, and that magic can only be learnt with proper dedication. As the series progresses, she gets better at magic, eventually mastering transformation spells. !
 * Determinator: Please do not get in Akko's way when she needs to do something. Although she is quite incompetent, she will stop at nothing to do the things that needs to be done. Often, this means her impulsiveness will lead to consequences, and she'll barely save herself with the help of Plot Armor. The Philosopher's Stone got stolen? Don't worry, she'll charge in there and get it back, despite knowing almost nothing about magic. About to be sacrificed and eaten for a festival? Nah, she'll break the conventions and do something innovative..
 * The Ditz: In episode 1, we establish her three biggest character traits: she is enthusiastic and irrational, likes Shiny Chariot, and isn't good with magic. The last point is the focus here, and she often screws up something casting a spell, or nothing will happen at all. She's alright with other aspects of school life, but is utterly incompetent and stupid when it comes to magic. That wouldn't be so bad in any other school, but when you go to a school specifically established for magic tuition? Not the best look, Atsuko Kagari.
 * Establishing Character Moment: Ah, the first day of school. The birds are chirping, the sun is shining, the Akko is frantically running everywhere and asking everyone for directions on how exactly to get to this place called "Luna Nova" but people around her has no clue and she will be late and oh no the punishment for being late is expulsion. Well, at least she made it to where she has to go and all she needs to do is get on her broomstick and fly. What's that Atsuko Kagari? You can't fly a broomstick? You have to hitchhike on another witch's broom? From the first five minutes in the first episode, we can clearly see Akko is not the most talented at magic.
 * Fearless Fool: She starts like this, being inept at magic, and struggling with even the most basic skills. You think that by the thirty-seventh time of yelling "Tia Freyre", her broom would at least move, but nope. It remains as inanimate as ever. Her inexperience, combined with her hot headedness, means she gets into a lot of trouble, barely escaping with the help of her friends and tutors.
 * Foreign Exchange Student: Being the creation of a Japanese studio, she is Japanese. She attends the British Luna Nova, along with students from many different nationalities. Despite the language differences, she has no difficulties communicating with any of them.
 * Genki Girl: She's very enthusiastic, and perhaps too energetic, constantly yelling things out loud. The series opens with her asking around everyone where the bus stop to Luna Nova is, and proclaiming her love for Shiny Chariot.
 * Handicapped Badass: She's handicapped, but does that stop her? No. Not one bit. She still manages impressive feats despite this, doings things many witches could never dream of doing.
 * Heroic BSOD: Hits her hard after the second major reveal. . She invokes the Screw This, I'm Outta Here trope, and runs away. She spends the rest of the day Angsting on a chair under the snow..
 * Inept Mage: She's pretty bad at magic. Justified, since unlike the other students, she is not from a family line of witches. Also, plenty of the other witches at the academy have their faults, even the faculty. To get a sense, in episode 5, the Sorcerer's stone is taken from the academy and pretty much nobody, not even the faculty are able to actually do much magic without it. The reason is connected with magical energy throughout the world being sealed and lessening each year, and culturally, it seems like lots of witches, especially much of the academy's faculty, don't seem to be trying to adapt/adjust how they teach the students to use magic in the modern era.
 * In-Series Nickname: Akko. This was never given as an Affectionate Nickname; she starts the series with it. Characters usually call her Akko, although characters such as Andrew, trained to be more formal with language, call her "Miss Kagari". You'll be really lucky to find a moment when the word "Atsuko" is used. If that happens, treasure it like how Atsuko Kagari treasures cards of Shiny Chariot.
 * Leeroy Jenkins: If Akko wants anything to happen, she will make it happen, regardless of its consequences. Want to charge into someone's entire family affairs despite them not wanting you to? She'll do it, in the "Cavendish" episode. Want to be like Shiny Chariot and win a broom race? Why are you even asking? Akko already signed herself and you up, despite that, for Akko the only viable use for a broom is cleaning. Fortunately, she mostly avoids combat situations, because we do not want to know what happens if Akko gets in a fight; the series would turn TV-14 real quick.
 * Master of One Magic: Transformation spells are the only thing Akko can do without completely screwing something up. Even then, it takes half the series to get to the point, and often she will be unable to change back..
 * Muggle: She's not born into a prestigious, magical family. In fact, she has ordinary parents, leading to her being not-so-good with magic.
 * Naive Newcomer: To the Luna Nova Wizarding School, so the audience can learn alongside her how magic works, because the magic in the series certainly is not something wielded by a Wizard Classic.
 * New Transfer Student: A Japanese child transferred to a British Wizarding School.
 * No Indoor Voice: Due to her being a Genki Girl.
 * Omniglot: Given that she's Japanese, attending a British school, and has no difficulty communicating with students, it's implied that she is fluent in both English and Japanese. She talks to the British Diana, the Finnish Lotte, or the French Professor Ursula. As the audience, you don't hear the different languages, though. Everyone speaks Japanese or the language of whatever country did the dub.
 * Only Known by Their Nickname: The name "Atsuko" is mentioned on this page more than the series. A very rare mention of her given name appears in the first episode. "Atsuko Kagari: I'm Atsuko Kagari, but you can call me Akko."


 * Plucky Girl: Despite the fact that Akko can't use magic, Akko sucks at learning magic, she can't cast two spells in a row without messing up, she can't fly on a broomstick, she wasn't born into a magical family, and, she still keeps going at Luna Nova. The "plucky" attribute is seen in the 2 episode Samhain Magic Festival arc, where she practices magic on her own, only rushing to her spot at the last second.
 * Also demonstrated in the episode "Pohjola's Ordeal", where she keeps finding ingredients for the cure even after her friends froze due to the Greenman Disease.
 * Red Oni, Blue Oni: She's the much more energetic red to the Defrosting Ice Queen Diana. Whereas Diana is calm and composed, Akko will rush into any situation she desires and survive with the help of Plot Armor. Bonus points for the matching colours in their uniforms.
 * Akko's "red" is so saturated multiple characters are needed to balance her out. Pick any student other than Amanda, and they'll be the blue counterpart to Akko.
 * Ridiculously Cute Critter: Akko, when transformed into a mouse.
 * Second Episode Morning: After a dream sequence from Akko regarding the events of the previous episode, she wakes up in a dorm in the Wizarding School Luna Nova with some characters she met in the previous episode as her roommates.
 * Signature Move: "Metamorphie Fasciesce", the transformation spell, is the only spell she can cast reliably. She often takes the form of a mouse, and stays in that form for a large amount of "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail". The signature move is even demonstrated in the second opening.
 * Took a Level In Badass: Akko in the start of the series: "Ahhh I can't fly a broomstick and I'm about to die and yikes that is a dragon oh no." Akko at the end of the series: "With The Power of Friendship, and the Shiny Rod, I shall save the world from anything!"
 * Undying Loyalty: To her idol Shiny Chariot. She constantly mentions Chariot in Luna Nova, hangs a massive "Shiny Chariot" poster by her bed, enters everyone in her trio into a broom racing competition because Chariot came first, never shuts up about Shiny Chariot, and the whole reason she is seeking out the Lost Words of Arctus in the first place is to eventually meet Chariot..
 * Unfit for Greatness: Lots of people take shots at Akko be it for not being from a family of witches or for being too much of a Wide-Eyed Idealist, or for practicing magic at all since they feel that magic is obsolete.
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting: The only magic thing she can reliably do without messing up.

Sucy Manbavaran
"You're even more obnoxious today."

- Sucy

Akko's creepy and brutally honest roommate who is far too interested in poison and mushrooms. Out of all students at Luna Nova, she's the character who resembles a traditional, cackling witch the most.

Nationality: Somewhere from Southeast Asia.


 * A Day In The Limelight: She is the focus in episode 8, titled "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld". We have two characters in the title, and one of them is Sucy!
 * Brutal Honesty: Sucy does not hide her opinions of Akko, frequently stating her thoughts on Akko's magical ability out loud. Since this is the Inept Mage Akko we're talking about, we can safely assume the words are not very nice.
 * Creepy Monotone: In the English dub, at least. This sets her apart from the other two members in Akko's trio, and is perfect for delivering lots and lots of snark.
 * Deadpan Snarker: A typical day in the world of Little Witch Academia goes like this: Akko: . Sucy:
 * Demoted to Extra: While Diana was promoted to a more prominent role, Sucy was relegated to the back. Good luck getting more than fifteen words out of Sucy after episode 16!
 * Foreign Exchange Student: Just like Akko. Unlike Akko, she's at Luna Nova to find exotic plants and mushrooms to upgrade her poisons. She doesn't care about this "Shiny Chariot" Akko keeps rambling about.
 * Hidden Depths: In "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", it is revealed multiple personas compete for dominance inside Sucy's mind. These personas include a "Fangirl Sucy", "Alpaca Sucy" (who wants to spit on everything), and "Valley Girl Sucy". Akko persuades Sucy that it's alright if she really wants to start the Night Fall series, and tries to save all these different personas from execution by Judge Sucy. There's more sides to Sucy than "poison girl mushroom lover"!
 * Lady of Black Magic:.
 * Peek-a-Bangs: To give her a more exotic and concealed feel, supported by the fact that she's the only character designed with Peek-a-Bangs. Whereas Akko does whatever she wants, Sucy is methodical, and we know much less information about Sucy than Akko.
 * The Quiet One: Sucy is very stoic and doesn't say much, especially when she first appears and meets Akko, but she eventually starts opening up a bit more... Much to Akko's dismay since a lot of what Sucy says and does is to prank Akko.
 * Shoo Out the Clowns: After the arrival of the Knight of Cerebus Professor Croix, Sucy is shooed out because "Manbavaran Dark Humor Solutions Ltd." is no longer required. When episode numbers hit their twenties, the story drops almost every attempt to make jokes, and along with this, Sucy's screentime is reduced. We need drama between Professor Ursula and Akko; we do not need a creepy girl experimenting with mushrooms.
 * Token Evil Teammate: On a sliding scale from good to evil, Sucy is the character who leans towards evil the most out of the main trio. She's in Luna Nova solely to find exotic ingredients to make better poisons with. She's not afraid to experiment on Akko, only pulling out at the last minute. Despite her creepiness, though, there are moments where she cares for her teammates.

Lotte Jansson
"Need a ride?"

- Lotte

Nationality: Finland


 * Ascended Fanboy:.
 * Demoted to Extra: Just like Sucy Manbavaran! Her last significant appearance was in the A Day in the Limelight episode "Pohjola's Ordeal". After that, Professor Ursula, Professor Croix, Shiny Chariot, Diana, and Akko take over.
 * Chick Magnet: Gender reversed. Lotte briefly becomes this in the tenth episode, "Bee Affection". The Love Bee stung a bunch of dudes at the party, ensuring they would be attracted to the next person they laid eyes on. They happened to look at Lotte, and congratulations, Lotte. You have yourself an Unwanted Harem!
 * A Day in the Limelight: In episode 16, where she visits her family.
 * Establishing Character Moment: Her character is established to be kind, patient, and helping when she offers Akko a ride to Luna Nova on her broomstick. Seriously, Akko. You know you'll be learning magic at a magical academy. Why aren't you familiarising yourself with basic flight magic?
 * Eye Glasses: So... where's her eyelids and eyelashes? Please tell us that it's hidden by the diffraction of the glasses, and the glasses did not swallow and eat them up.
 * Fairy Companion: Her magic allows her to communicate with and summon fairies (or spirits, depending on translation), and the one most often seen is the one inhabiting Lotte's skull lantern which she is seen taking with her and interacting with most often.
 * Fan Girl: To the Night Fall series where she has a Photographic Memory of the events that happened. She easily wins a Night Fall trivia, able to answer every question within the time it takes light to travel 1.3 meters. How does this set her apart from any other fan girl? Well, the Night Fall series is 365 books long when the quiz happened. Lotte needs to both buy all 365 books, read all 365 books, and memorise what happens in all 365 books.
 * The term is applied positively, as Lotte is a genuine fan of the series, rather than only liking it as a shallow personality trait. The book series make cameos in several episodes, including "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld".
 * Fire-Forged Friends: With Akko and Sucy. When you're Akko's roommate, you will be roped into adventures; Will I go on an adventure? is not the question to ask, the question is How long will it be before Akko drags me into something?. Thus, the friendship between her and Akko is strengthened by all the tough times they survive, especially in the episode "Pohjola's Ordeal", where they work together to save each other.
 * The Heart: Lotte is the kind hearted person in the core trio. Her gentle nature balances out Sucy's creepy and Akko's adventurous personality.
 * Innocent Blue Eyes: The most innocent member of the red trio. Sucy is automatically eliminated from innocence. Akko's innocence was lost in the latter episodes, leaving only Lotte with accompanying Innocent Blue Eyes.
 * Nice Girl: From offering Akko a ride to Luna Nova after meeting her for fifteen seconds, to balancing out Sucy's more sarcastic remarks, Lotte is the go to stop if you need cheering up!

Amanda O'Neill
A hot-headed witch who tends to cause a lot of trouble.

Nationality: United States of America.


 * Action Girl: Frequently gets into a lot of trouble and fights. For example, in episode 17 she sees action by Breaking the Bonds, before engaging in a High Altitude Battle.
 * Breaking the Bonds: In episode 17, she does this after being tied to a chair for an interrogation. Yes. An interrogation at a school by the students.
 * Crossdresser: She does so to sneak into Appleton Academy in episode 17.
 * A Day in the Limelight: In episode 17, "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail".
 * Establishing Character Moment: In episode 3, she is established to be reckless and rebellious as she does acrobatics, right after a teacher instructed they should not do acrobatics. This is followed by the teacher stating "How many times do I gotta tell you, no acrobatics!"--the "how many" implies this isn't the first time she disobeyed orders. She calls the teacher a "party pooper". Amanda even steals Akko's Arc Words of "Alright!"
 * Fiery Redhead: That hair is pretty close to red, although hints of orange are shown. How is she fiery? Glad you asked, because her actions are even more reckless than Akko's. Violating almost every single rule is a daily occurrence in almost every school she attends, including Luna Nova and Appleton Academy.
 * Lovable Rogue: She sees her time at Luna Nova as a time for having as much fun as she can.
 * Tempting Fate: After Amanda is captured in episode 17, she thinks to herself, "Don't you dare get caught, Akko." One second later, Akko's voice comes through a fan and Akko gets caught. No, Akko. Please do not try to rescue Amanda when you transformed yourself into a rat.

Constanze Amalie von Braunschbank-Albrechtsberger
"She flew."

- Constanze

A silent Gadgeteer Genius part of Amanda's trio. She doesn't get a lot of screentime, only playing a prominent role in episode 18 "Stanship Take Off!" That's a shame, because her inventions would really help Akko in some situations...

Nationality: Germany


 * Gadgeteer Genius: Can build a battleship which can transform into a Humongous Mecha out of parts like hand mixers. She also has helper Stan-bots that follow her around. She even builds a mechanical flying broomstick for the flightless Akko, which promptly disappears due Negative Continuity between the episode and the series.
 * Overly Long Name: Try to fit "Constanze Amalie von Braunschbank Albrechtsberger" on a business card. Go ahead. try! Her name is the bane of sporting announcers and wiki titles throughout the world.
 * The Quiet One: Throughout the entire series, she gets two words of dialogue. Other times, she prefers communicating by writing things down on boards or through her Stanbot. She never speaks a single word in episode 18, which is supposed to focus on her.
 * Shorter Means Smarter: She's the shortest in both Amanda, Akko, and Diana's trio. Although Diana is adept with magic, can she invent flying airships or helper bots? Nope. That's Constanze's job.

Jasminka Antonenko
A minor, Out of Focus character who eats way. Too. Much. Food.

Diana Cavendish
The top student at Luna Nova, and a member of the prestigious Cavendish wizarding family. She is focused and academic, appearing cold to those around her. However, she's never a bully, and cares about those closest to her.

Because of her attitude, Akko believes Diana is her rival. Diana, on the other hand, doesn't believe this, thinking of Akko as just another student, an incompetent student at that. Their relationship changes during the "Cavendish" and "Intellect and Sensibility" episodes, where Diana warms up to Akko. After the episodes, Diana gets more screen time, and becomes closer to Akko.

Nationality: Britain.

"Diana: Akko. Akko: What? Diana: I just remembered that there was something important that I needed to tell you Akko: Huh, what is it? I didn't do something wrong again, did I? Diana: I appreciate everything you've done for me. Akko: You what!? Akko: Say it again, come on Diana! Diana: Don't push it. Akko: I couldn't hear it with all the wind. One more time! Diana: No. Akko: Please, for me. Diana: Absolutely not. Akko: You don't have to be embarrassed. Diana: Do you want to walk?"
 * Academic Athlete: The "Academic" part comes from her talent in magic. Given that this is called Little Witch Academia, there should be someone academic. The "Athlete" part comes from her talent as a broom flier, being talented and graceful with her broom, resulting in speedy but subtle tricks unlike Amanda's over the top, flamboyant acrobatics.
 * Ascended Fangirl: Just like Akko..
 * Brutal Honesty: Often expresses exactly what she thinks of Akko's brashness and boldness. These words are exactly what's on her mind, although they don't make Akko feel very good.
 * Character Development: Both her character and the audience's perception of the character changes as the series progresses. Her character changes in that she becomes much nicer to Akko, and becomes concerned about Akko's safety while still maintaining a formal demeanor. The audience's perception changes in that we see Diana is not just an academic witch, but as a real person who has to meet expectations set out by her family.
 * Defrosting Ice Queen: Initially starts out cold towards Akko, but warms up to her in the "Cavendish" and "Intellect and Sensibility" episodes. Diana was never rude; only the two characters who follow her around was mean to Akko. She remained cold and academic towards Akko, though, and isn't afraid to give her a scolding for being rash or getting into trouble. After warming up, she still maintains a formal way of speech, but becomes closer to Akko. In the climax, she and Akko are the last character remaining. Her becoming more attached to Akko while keeping up her rigid attitude and formal language can be seen in an exchange at the end of episode 20, when Diana is flying Akko back to Luna Nova.


 * Draco in Leather Pants: Given that she gets a lot of Ship Tease moments with Akko, the fandom will look for any excuse to make them a couple.
 * Grudging Thank You: The exchange listed under Defrosting Ice Queen when Akko and Diana are flying back to Luna Nova.
 * Hidden Depths: Who would have thought the most stoic student at Luna Nova, and even attended the same show Akko did?
 * Icy Blue Eyes: To reflect her cold attitude towards Akko.
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold: It's pretty obvious she's not actually a bad person nor is she as stuck up as she seems, but she has her family duties to uphold. In fact, throughout the series, she is never the one to mock Akko or her friends, its pretty much just her two friends/followers that do it.
 * Parental Abandonment: In episode 19, it is revealed that her parents left her at a young age.
 * Red Oni, Blue Oni: At the start of the series, Lotte and Sucy act as the blue counterpart to Akko's aggressively saturated red. As the series progresses, she takes over the role of the blue counterpart.
 * Rewatch Bonus: Go back to the first episode and rewatch Chariot's magic show. Guess who's in the crowd along with Akko?.
 * The Stoic: She initially appears this way to Akko. Over time, her Hidden Depths are revealed, and she begins to display some emotions. She still remains calm and composed in most situations, though. When Akko is panicking about what to do, Diana is usually thinking it over.
 * Teen Genius: As a child, she is an incompetent magic user, unable to cast basic spells just like Akko. As a teenager, she is consistently top of class and able to cast almost any spell someone can think of.
 * You Gotta Have Blue Hair: You gotta have green hair.

Ursula Callistis

 * Clark Kenting:.
 * Foreshadowing: The series briefly drops hints that.

"Shiny" Chariot du Nord
"Welcome to... the world of magic!"

- Shiny Chariot

A performer of magic, who specialises in public spectacles and magic shows. She is Akko's idol, although her magic shows gives her a bad reputation in the magical community, due to it portraying magic as something only used for spectacle.

 * It's All My Fault: She blames herself never told her about the side effects of the spell.
 * Lovable Rogue: Compared to the rest of the magical community, she was known for being very theatrical with her use of magic to perform shows for people. Akko had seen one of Chariot's performances as a little girl and had assumed that all witches were like Chariot.
 * My God, What Have I Done?: In a desperate attempt to perform a spectacle, . The memories of everyone in the audience had to be erased, . She only realises that she probably shouldn't after she's performed.

Professor Croix
A witch who appears in the second half of the series, specialising in combining technology with magic. Her inventions help combat the decline in magic throughout the world, but have consequences if they're abused...

Professor Croix is the Antagonist of the series, although she never ventures into being a villain.
