While the animation was visually appealing, it couldn't make up for the lackluster storytelling. Overall, "Little Witch Academia" failed to live up to the hype for me.
3. Michael - 2.5 stars - "Little Witch Academia" had its moments, but overall, I found it to be mediocre at best. The storyline lacked originality and felt like a recycled version of other magical school-themed anime. The characters were forgettable and lacked depth, making it difficult for me to care about their struggles. The animation was beautifully done, but it didn't make up for the lack of substance in the overall narrative.

4. Emily - 3 stars - While "Little Witch Academia" had its charms, it didn't fully impress me. The main concept of the story was interesting, but the execution felt lacking. The pacing was uneven, with some episodes feeling rushed and others dragging on unnecessarily.
