Little Witch Academia Finally Flies Onto Netflix US
Netflix has announced that the first 13 episodes of Studio Trigger’s Little Witch Academia will finally be available for streaming in the US starting on June 30th.
There’s no word as to when the remaining 12 episodes will be added. Hopefully, it’s a rather short wait. The first batch of episodes will likely have the addition of a Netflix-casted English dub. Who’re are likely the same cast members from the two previously dubbed Little Witch Academia Films(Little Witch Academia and Little Witch Academia: The Enchanted Parade), both of which you can find on Netflix.
The show follows three young witches: Akko, Sucy, and Lotte making their way through witch school at Luna Nova Magical Academy. They go on crazy magic filled witch adventures like meeting the Author of Eclipse and dealing with magical blonde female school rivals. They do all this while the lead, Akko Kagari is just trying to learn how to be a great witch without growing up in a magical home. It’s a grand, spellbinding adventure.
Little Witch Academia is Studio Trigger’s 4th full length, half-hour animated series. You may know them from their previous works such as Kill La Kill, Kizunavier, and When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace. You could also know them from their equally great shorter series such as Inferno Cop, Space Patrol Luluco, and Ninja Slayer From Animation. However you know them, it doesn’t matter Studio Trigger is a consistently critically acclaimed studio with animation heavily influenced by western media.
Little Witch Academia is a fun show, and you should give it a shot when its first season hits Netflix on June 30th. If you need some Trigger content to tide you over, try watching the first two films or Kill La Kill on Netflix. Here’s Little Witch Academia’s English Dub cast if you’re interested:

Since the excellent Baldur’s Gate 3 has been out in the wild for a while, interesting data can be gleaned, such as how players choose to play an innovative new RPG from home. Stats from developer Larian Studios and posted on the PlayStation Blog show that most people want to play as a stealthy archer like in Skyrim when given nearly limitless options.
According to a fascinating graph, Rogue/Ranger is the most popular multiclass build, with over 175,000 players using it to snipe unsuspecting enemies from range. The next two builds reveal similarly. 150,000 played Barbarian/Fighter because they loved pummeling things, and 109,00 played Barbarian/Paladin, which lets players talk to their victims before beatings.
More sense emerges as you descend. If the Paladin/Warlock/Sorcerer/Bard has high Charisma, any combination can be interesting. Charisma helps these classes cast spells and abilities and interact with NPCs outside of combat.
Playing a single class through Baldur’s Gate 3 feels great, which is what most players do. A pure Fighter or Wizard becomes so powerful by game’s end that we don’t blame you for not mixing things up!
Play as a Tiefling Oathbreaker Paladin, Dark Urge Origin (which you must resist), or Bard for real moral dilemmas. You could also play pseudo-Aragorn again.
Techland is continuing to release Dying Light 2 content as part of its long-term support. This is surprising since the meaty Good Night, Good Luck update was released a few months ago. It’s nice to know what’s coming, but no timeline was given.
IGN-exclusive roadmap trailers reveal more co-op missions, board quests, a tower raid, and replayable GRE anomalies. Executions and finishers may be added to the April Gut Feeling update, which overhauled melee mechanics. Graphical options, weapon repair, gear, and mod dismantling are always welcome.
Knives, polearms, and more enemy variants are coming, including a Nightmare difficulty. Changes to NG+ include firearms. Players can finally dress to their hearts’ content with new cosmetic options.
Has Techland’s Dying Light 2 support lured you back? Would you rather focus on something new?
Epic Games expanded the Fortnite V-Buck “pricing alignment” after laying off almost 900 employees, citing “inflation and currency fluctuations”. Fortnite’s premium currency will rise in international markets, including the largest.
Epic Games will raise the price of V-Bucks and real money content packs in the Czech Republic, Denmark, Eurozone countries, Hungary, Japan, Norway, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Turkey, and the US (including all US Dollar storefronts) on October 27.
Raising the price of this fictitious currency was successful when the company trialed it in the UK, Canada, and Mexico, so it was decided to announce it worldwide now. These USD increases range from $1 (1000 V-Bucks, previous $7.99) to $10 (13,500 V-Bucks, previous $79.99).
How do you view Epic’s timing and pricing increase?
