Got some more word on the street about the plot of the game. Apparently it's set in August, after episode 7 (the one where Akko turns herself mostly into a fish to pass a philosophy exam). Akko finds a magic clock and, being Akko, activates it and traps Luna Nova in a time loop. Initially only she and her roomies remember the loops, but later they get Green Team involved and later yet Diana Dianas her way into the group.

Re: whether or not Hannah and Barbara are playable in the upcoming PS4 game, they apparently are playable

Shiny. I assume at the end of the game there's going to be a reset button to preserve the timeline of them still being shits to the gang for most of the anime.

@Iaculus The Pokemon Anime is actually very well animated. The most recent series being particularly good looking in motion.

Scans of a magazine article about the game.

My source (i.e. some anonymous internet rando) claims that Hannah and Barbara won't be playable after all, but they're getting more characterization. Reportedly Barbara is from a rich and prestigious family and looks down on Akko for being not that, and Hannah's family isn't as impressive so she compensates with extra snobbery.

That's not actually confirmed. The page you presented explicitly said Diana is going to be playable and that Hannah and Barbara are present in the game, but it doesn't actually make it clear if they are playable or not (I do believe they are not, I'm just this information is not yet 100% confirmed).

Also, it does say Barbara comes from a noble family, but it doesn't mention Hannah's family at all, so her family not being as impressive was, again, just your translator filling in the blanks. It does mention she is not as versed in noblewoman conduct as Barbara is though.

Yeah guys, I got to make a confession here: I have no idea which is Hannah and which is Barbara. Somehow it was never a problem till now.

Hanna(h) is the redhead and the more attractive of the two.

One thing I've always wondered about Barbara - I'm not sure how to read the shape of her eyes. Does she have droopy eyes that are just huge because of the art style, or is it that her resting expression kind of anxious-looking?

More Japanese previewing of the game, with some Akko running around and some combat. I love all the expressions in the first part; they certainly seem to have the aesthetic nailed.

Question: Was Chariot confronting Croix during the last episodes to save her friend or was it Roaring Rampageof Revenge.

That's not necessarily an or kind of situation, yannow. Croix and Chariot's relationship got messy. But anyway, given how quickly they reconciled and the general series theme that hostility is dumb and counterproductive I doubt revenge was uppermost in Chariot's mind.

Anyway, after learning that the seventh word was the lesson of bonds or unity, it actually made a lot of sense behind Woodward's disappointment and the Shiny Rod's rejection.

The seventh word is the first word. Find your ideal place, a place where those who love you are there

The Shiny Rod rejected Croix because it sensed that she would betray Chariot and later left Chariot as she begun to care more about her legacy than her fans.

Woodward may not have eyed with Chariot during Ep 24 but expressed her utmost disappointment at the both of them.

Woodward was disappointed at Croix for forsaking her friend over a material gain while disappointed at Chariot for running away from Akko which Diana put it was more important than the Grand Triskellion, even the magic.

We already had Enchanted Parade.

Also Chariot explained to Croix while she's protecting her from the Rogue Noir Rod, she didn't done enought after stealing Croix's dream and Akko's power mentioned she won't let anymore be stolen. Did she continued to atone or did she finally blamed something: Magic?

Amanda does strike me as the type who would go out of her way to build up a vocabulary of curse words.

More game info. Plot shenanigans (oh god Sucy's got a voodoo doll), mechanics details (hey, if constellation-themed leveling worked for Skyrim), and, most interesting to me, background witches being fleshed out (with traits like "movie buff" and "prone to spontaneous combustion").

Is that Diana going all Gate of Babylon on people? Sing me up!

Also, there will be a mecha in this game?

the Japanese preorder gave a bonus of a game around Grand Charion. it remains to be seen if it will be in the North American version.
