"Little Witch Academia: The Enchanted Parade" is an animated film produced by Studio Trigger. It is a sequel to the original "Little Witch Academia" short film and continues the story of young witch-in-training, Akko Kagari, and her friends as they participate in an annual parade. The film begins with Akko, Lotte, and Sucy, the main characters from the first movie, being punished and assigned the task of organizing the annual witch parade. However, the trio soon realizes that their lack of experience and differing opinions make the task more challenging than expected. As they struggle to gather participants and plan the parade, tensions rise between the three friends. Akko's enthusiasm and desire to make the parade a grand success clash with Lotte's cautious nature and Sucy's mischievous tendencies.
Things don't go any better during Akko and her friends' time at Blytonbury's plaza. After separating from green team, Akko tells Sucy her side of story about their argument earlier, uncertain why their Finnish roommate so upset aside the latter's torn ancestral lullaby sheet. Sucy bluntly points out that Lotte had bottled up what she truly feels regarding Akko's ideas for their assignment, much to the brunette's disbelief. The cynical Lotte agrees with Sucy's statement, finally confessing to Akko about her loss of faith in their part of witch parade and (indirectly) made it clear getting flunked in their school year much more preferable before walking away. Finally realizing what she had done, Akko attempts to chase Lotte only to be stopped by Sucy who bewitches a mushroom to do so and adds that "Happy Time Project" is too much hers rather than shared assignment between them. Outraged, Akko impulsively calls Sucy out for both using her as some recurring guinea pig and being nothing more than a mushroom freak, and therefore won't speak to her anymore before storming off in anger. To add insult to injury, when she meets up with green team alone, they have an uneventful encounter with Thomas and his gang who bully them for being witches. Though the ensuing scuffle fortunately doesn't last long, the fact that Luna Nova witches ended up wasting too much magic in the process thus providing the opportunity for Thomas and co. to bombard Akko with tomatoes before retreating resulted Amanda becoming skeptical with the possibility of "Happy Time Project" even with her and her roommates' enthusiasm, disheartening the brunette further.
The main flaw of Happy Time Project has been resolved, though Akko argues to Amanda that they cannot commence it yet since Lotte and Sucy hasn t arrived, even if they already past their schedule. Pleasure 10 10 This movie amused me a lot, I watched it immediately after seeing the anime 2 years ago, I remember that I was very happy to have movies, because the anime ended up with a taste of I want more , until today I hope for a continuation of sequence.
Akko's enthusiasm and desire to make the parade a grand success clash with Lotte's cautious nature and Sucy's mischievous tendencies. This leads to conflicts and misunderstandings that threaten to ruin their friendship. Amidst these challenges, the trio encounters another group of witches from a neighboring school who openly mock and belittle them.

You can tell witch training is not going swimmingly for the young sorceresses Akko, Lotte, and Sucy—they face expulsion for screwing up one class too many, and their only way out is if they successfully organize their academy's annual parade through a nearby town. But when they stumble upon the momentous discovery that the objective of the parade is to humiliate witches and commemorate their past subjugation, Akko decides it is time for a change: It is time to show the world how fantastic modern witches truly are! However, with the other girls struggling to keep up with Akko's grandiose ambitions, and everything from mischievous boys to slumbering giants getting in their way, maybe pulling it off will require not only all the magical prowess the pupils of Luna Nova Magical Academy can muster, but also a miracle.
