My story is about to begin!
Line 23:
* [[Art Shift]]: In the second episode, as Diana animates a statue the style looks much more like a painting.
** Happens quite often in "Akko's Adventures in Sucyworld" in the [[Retraux]] film playing inside Sucy's mind. The most notable example is a callback to the scene where Akko first meets Sucy, where the art becomes much more detailed for two shots. There are no animated components, only objects moving around and parallax scrolling, contrasting the shots before and after them.
* [[Artsy Moon]]: In the series, the moon is illustrated with a star in its middle.
* [[Back from the Dead]]: In episode nine, Akko accidentally casts a resurrection spell. She was meant to mend a grave, but her mending potion was mixed with Sucy's mushrooms, resurrecting a corpse who desperately began looking for revenge on a man.
* [[Better as Friends]]: Lotte thinks that she and Frank are this.
Line 37 ⟶ 38:
* [[Drive-In Theater]]: Akko visits this, among many other places, in "Akko's Adventures in Sucyworld". She watches a [[Retraux]] film which reveals how the inner Sucy thinks about her.
* [[Empathic Environment]]: At the beginning of episode eight, when Sucy is doing all sorts of creepy experiments and making potions, the weather is appropriately [[It Was a Dark and Stormy Night|dark and stormy]] to reflect this mood.
* [[Equivalent Exchange]]: Magic as a whole works like this. Witches cannot cast magic without the power provided by the Phliosopher's Stone. {{spoiler|In episode 22, it is revealed that both Chariot and Croix has different methods of countering the diminishing magic in the world. Chariot absorbs the dreams of people, removing their magical ability in the process. Croix creates [[Sinister Geometry]] cubes to amplify and absorb people's emotions}}.
*
* [[Free Sample Plot Coupon]]: The Shiny Rod was just sitting on the floor in the forest in the Forest of Arcturus, which Akko easily picks up and keeps.
* [[Freeze-Frame Bonus]]: In the first episode, when Akko holds out a guide to Luna Nova, you can pause the episode and read its content, which includes a history of Luna Nova, a map of the facility and how to access it, and pictures of the facility. {{quote|'''''Greetings from Luna Nova'''
Line 47 ⟶ 49:
* [[Homage]]: In episode eight "Akko's Adventures in Sucyworld", the fangirl Sucy holds up a [[Star Wars|lightsaber]].
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: In episode 18, the ship that Akko and Constanze builds transforms into one. Constanze's helper bots believe that a transforming mecha is a stupid idea, but Constanze regardless tries to make the plan work. In the end, it all works out. [[Studio Trigger]], we get it. You're formed from [[Gainax|the people]] who made ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' and ''[[Gurren Lagann]]''.
* [[It's a Long Story]]: In episode 22, Professor Croix asks Akko how she is in the town, and how she got to where Croix is. Akko responds with this stock phase.
* [[Journey to the Center of the Mind]]: The plot point of episode eight, "Akko's Adventures in Sucyworld", where Akko tries to wake up a sleeping Sucy.
* [[Late for School]]: How the series starts out. Akko asks around for a bus stop to take her to Luna Nova, but turns out, there are ''no'' buses that go there. Instead, you have to ride on a broomstick. Oh, also if you're late, you're expelled. The stakes are just a little high.
