->"''I used to get laughed at by the other witches, you know? But when I sang a magical song, the faerie spirits would create a rainbow for me. It was always amazing and beautiful.''"\\

Akko's best friend and roommate from Finland. She tends to be rather quiet and bookish compared to her more loud and abrasive friends, which makes her come off as being a bit invisible at times, but she is a kind-hearted girl who is very loyal to her friends. She has the unique ablity to summon spirits from numerous objects, which allows her to commuicate with them. She is also a passionate ''Night Fall'' fangirl.
----
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She likes Edgar's dark and secretive nature in the ''Night Fall'' books.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: During her childhood, the other children made fun of her for coming from a family of witches.
* AscendedFanboy: Subverted -- she is offered the chance to become the next ''Night Fall'' author but rejects it because then she would always be spoiled on the story and have nothing to look forward to.
* BadassAdorable: Probably one of the cutest witch that you'll ever seen, Her glasses and shy personality also helps her being cute. She sometimes faces monsters with her magical powers, alongside with Akko & Sucy.
* BerserkButton: If someone insults her friends, Lotte will make sure that they regret it.
* BespectacledCutie: She always wears glasses, and it's easy to notice how cute she is with it.
* BlackBeadEyes: Has solid pale blue dots for eyes. But without her glasses, [[http://68.media.tumblr.com/70c5db377d5e2967d12e817f32eeddc2/tumblr_ojv0plW73L1swnfbuo1_1280.png her eyes are like everyone else's.]]
* CuteBookworm: Very bookish and downright adorable for it.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The redhead to Sucy's blonde and Akko's brunette.
* DarkIsNotEvil: She carries around [[SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset a lantern shaped like a skull]], but it's a [[MementoMacGuffin family heirloom]] that helps her summon fairies.
* DemotedToExtra: In the second cour, although unlike Sucy, she gets ADayInTheLimelight episode.
* DudeMagnet: When the Lovelove Bee was doing its thing, it just so happened to sting all four members of Andrew's posse, and Lotte just so happened to be the first girl they laid their eyes on. Subverted when the bee's magic wears off, though Frank still found her attractive, and even asked her on a date.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Offering Akko a ride to Luna Nova after some reluctance, which establishes her as kind and willing to reach out to those in need.
* EyeGlasses: Her eyes fill up her whole glasses frame.
* FireForgedFriends: With Akko and Sucy. This is especially true concerning the former. So much so that in "Yesterday", Lotte is brought to tears by the thought of Akko leaving, completely adrift without her.
* FieryRedhead: Inverted. Unlike her fellow red-headed friend [[LovableRogue Amanda]], Lotte is a fairly even-tempered gal with orange hair.
* GoodIsBoring: She admits this is the reason she tolerates and even admires Akko's occasional JerkassBall, as she knows she's too even-tempered to ever really achieve anything memorable whereas Akko's passion can drive her to greatness.
* HairstyleInertia: Lotte kept her hairstyle the same from her youth.
* TheHeart: She's the emotional center of the main trio thanks to her empathy and kindness.
* InnocentBlueEyes: Lotte has blue eyes and is the nicest between her, Sucy, and Akko.
* JustFriends: Invoked by Lotte in regards to her and Frank, as she finds the idea of suddenly dating someone she barely knows to be weird and wants to start by being friends with him first.
* TheKirk: To Akko's [[TheMcCoy McCoy]] and Sucy's [[TheSpock Spock]]. Despite being easily the most empathetic and selfless, she's as well the most levelheaded and balanced individual among them, with Akko being kind of a hothead and Sucy often being a {{stoic}}, apathetic jerk.
* LosingTheTeamSpirit: After Akko pushes her buttons one too many times, and snaps at her before becoming sullen and decided to leave the Happy Time Project.
* MeaningfulName: "Lotte" might be a short form of "Liselotte" or "Annelotte" meaning "Gracious" or "sweet", two traits that match Lotte. It can also be a short form of "Charlotte", which is a feminine French form of "Charles", which means "man" or "warrior"; however, this name is of Germanic origin, making it unlikely to refer to Lotte, who is Scandinavian.
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Her family name is a reference to Creator/ToveJansson, the Finnish-Swedish creator of ''Literature/TheMoomins''. Jansson is actually a pretty common Swedish surname, but "Pohjola's Ordeal", Lotte's DayInTheLimelight episode, is chock full of Moomin {{Shout Out}}s, which makes it clear that naming her after Tove Jansson was intentional.
* NiceGirl: While a bit shy, she's a very sweet, selfless and kind girl, and the most even-tempered in the main trio.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the nice one amongst the main trio, as she's quiet, mild-mannered and gentle compared to her more abrasive teammates.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When Akko rips up the sheet music to Lotte's ancestral song, Lotte gets so frustrated that she blows up in Akko's face, telling her to GetOut of her room. The next time they meet up, Lotte is gloomy and more prone to speak her mind. Sucy lampshades the change after the first confrontation.
* OutOfFocus: Lotte ends up suffering this along with Sucy during the second cour of the series. The second cour of the series ends up focusing on Akko's quest to revive the Seven Enchanted Words, the backstory of Shiny Chariot, the introduction of Professor Croix, and characters like Diana, Amanda, and Constanze getting [[ADayInTheLimelight spotlight episodes]]. So Lotte and Sucy ended up finding themselves pushed more to the background.
* PhotographicMemory: At least in regards to the ''Night Fall'' series, a 365-volume epic which she seems to have completely memorized, down to random 10-digit numbers and chemical formulas. The only question in the associated quiz-show that takes her more than a millisecond to answer is "what is the species of the third flower in the botanical garden in the town of the author's mother's piano teacher's husband's father's favorite bakery?"
* ScaryShinyGlasses: Her glasses shine whenever she becomes angry or upset.
* ShipTease: The series hints that Frank likes her, and she appears to be considering him.
* ShipperOnDeck: She and Sucy jokingly shipped Akko with Andrew
* ShrinkingViolet: Lotte is known to be shy and timid at times.
* ShoutOut: With her red hair and freckles, she looks like she could be a member of [[Franchise/HarryPotter the Weasley family]]. It helps that she is the main character's best friend like Ron is to Harry.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: While she wanted to start as friends with Frank, she did say that it's because she wants to take things slow before thinking about committing to a relationship. Lucky for Frank, as a NiceGuy who showed genuine attraction to her, dude has a pretty decent shot in the long term.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Her surname is occasionally translated as "Yanson". Regardless of which one the creators intended, "Jansson" is the correct Swedish spelling.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: "Pohjola's Ordeal" shows that Lotte gets her physical looks from her mother, while she inherited her eye and hair color from her father.
* SummonMagic: Her bread and butter are summoning fairies.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Lotte wears a purple headband.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Make no mistake, the main trio are all good-hearted individuals, but she's the good-natured straitght-up NiceGirl compared to her two more abrasive friends, Sucy and Akko.
* YaoiFangirl: Downplayed, but she interprets Edgar's advances on Belle as an attempt to get Arthur's attention.
* YouthfulFreckles: Has freckles on her face, giving her a young and innocent look.

[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sucy_7.png]]


->''"Could you be any more of a pain in the neck?"''\\

A dark, creepy pale girl from Southeast Asia with a huge love for mushrooms and potions, especially poisons. She and Akko butt heads frequently often and the former especially loves to subject the latter to her experiments (much to the latter's distaste), but they are also good friends who care deeply about each other. She is also Lotte and Akko's roommate.
----
* AdaptationalJerkass: Not like she was the kindest person to start with, but Sucy is much more [[WithFriendsLikeThese cruel toward and exploitative]] to Akko and Lotte in the series than in the films, even using them as bait for a cockatrice in "A New Beginning" just to get a feather from it. She's still a JerkWithAHeartOfGold who cares deeply about her friends, but it's more subtle compared to the films.
* AmbiguouslyGay: When Akko is about to kiss Sucy awake inside her mindscape, Dragon!Sucy (which is made up of all of her stray thoughts and inner desires) gets hearts in its eyes and becomes very sad when the Original Sucy denies Akko the kiss. It should also be noted that out of the main trio, Sucy is the only one who doesn't get ShipTease with male characters. She also expressed no interest in any guys in "Bee Affection", unlike Akko and Lotte.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The blonde (purple hair) to Akko's brunette and Lotte's redhead.
* BrutalHonesty: She tells everyone exactly what's on her mind and exactly how she sees things. In particular, she showed no restraint in telling Akko that she's not really being the best of friends to Lotte.
* TheCameo: Makes an extended cameo in "The Mysterious Power's Trap" of ''Anime/SpacePatrolLuluco''.
* CreepyChild: With her pale skin, deadpan expression and voice, and interests that most people would find disturbing, she clearly gives off this vibe.
* CreepyMonotone: She speaks in a morose and raspy monotone, which adds to her generally unsettling nature.
* CreepyShadowedUndereyes: Sucy has some pretty visible dark circles under her eyes, further enhancing her creepy demeanor.
* CustomUniform: As you can see, the length of her dress extends all the way past the floor. She's the only character seen wearing this type of uniform.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Sucy can be a rather dark and creepy individual and she loves subjecting her friends (especially Akko) to her experiments and to cause mischief in general, but she is a caring and good-hearted person at the end of the day.
* DeadpanSnarker: Prone to making witty remarks while wearing the exact same emotionless and gloomy expression.
* DemotedToExtra: Hit brutally with this in the latter half of the series. While Lotte at least gets a few bits of a spotlight, Sucy's lucky to even get more than a few lines per episode.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Her introduction in the anime has her using her potions against Akko, such as bringing a bird doll to life to peck her eye and turn ropes into snakes. She does this while not saying anything and maintaining a straight face, cementing her status as a stoic but mischievous prankster.
* ForeignExchangeStudent: From Southeast Asia and is studying at Britain-based Luna Nova.
* TheGadfly: In "Bee Affection", she releases a "Lovelove Bee", which causes people to fall in love. She says she just wanted to mess with Akko.
* {{Goth}}: An aloof, sarcastic girl who is notably the only one amongst her friends drawn with makeup, with an interest in creepy things that disgust the rest of her classmates.
* GothGirlsKnowMagic: A creepy, aloof girl attending a European school for witches-in-training and an expert in magical poisons.

[[Characters/LittleWitchAcademiaAtsukoAkkoKagari See * ACupAngst: One slightly subtle example as she shows up at the Cavendish family to try to talk Diana in coming back to Luna Nova. Diana gets her page maid to put Akko in a fancy dress that she received from her mother when she was 11, noting how it's a bit too small for tropes about her]]

->"''I used to get laughed at

* AccidentalPervert: Gender inverted. She accidentally grabs Andrew by the pants

Akko's best friend and roommate from Finland. She tends to be rather quiet and bookish compared to her more loud and abrasive friends, which
is so embarrassed that she accuses him of thinking that she's a pervert when he makes her come it clear he doesn't.
* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: Downplayed. For Akko, [[ComedicSociopathy getting repeatedly poisoned]] by [[TokenEvilTeammate Sucy]] finally pays
off as being a bit invisible at times, but she is a kind-hearted girl who is very loyal to her friends. She has the unique ablity to summon spirits from numerous objects, which when it allows her to commuicate briefly resist the bites of a couple of venomous snakes controlled by [[EvilAunt Lady Daryl Cavendish]], but she soon collapses and requires urgent medical attention.
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: She was initially at a loss when she saw the old-timey parody of her during a movie inside Sucy's mindscape. Eventually, though, she joined the Sucies in laughing.
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: In the series, Akko is far more depressed about her lack of skill in magic. While it was present in the short films, it was more of an annoyance, while also heavily implied to be due to her impatience. In the series, it's a plot point and something Akko works extremely hard at trying to overcome (once she realizes she's not in a LegacyOfTheChosen story and won't just become an InstantExpert through sheer belief). Furthermore, in the films, Shiny Chariot is an always out-of-reach ideal that Akko strives for, while in the series, [[spoiler:she does eventually learn she's Professor Ursula. Unfortunately, this revelation comes together
with them. the knowledge that Chariot (unintentionally) using her shows to gather Dream Energy is part of the reason why she can't use magic well]]. She takes this [[HeroicBSOD about as well as can be expected]].
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Downplayed. While Akko can still be insensitive in the TV series, it's considerably more toned down from how she was in the short films.
* AdaptationalWimp: In the short films, Akko [[CrisisMakesPerfect quickly develops her magical abilities while battling monsters]]. In the series, the writers are allowed to slow down the pacing. As a result, Akko's even more of a LoserProtagonist; her talents developing bit by bit, provided that she doesn't catch AesopAmnesia. [[spoiler:Her lack of ability is actually a major plot point.]]
* AesopAmnesia: Downplayed. While most of the morals she's taught over the course of the series tend to stick, when it comes to learning the value of patience, [[IgnoredAesop Akko seems to forget it by the end of the episode]], probably requiring more time to stick than others due to her {{Determinator}} nature.
* AllLovingHero:
She is also loyal to her friends, doing whatever she can to ensure their safety and/or happiness. In fact, Akko's love for magic stems from a passionate ''Night Fall'' fangirl.
----
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She likes Edgar's dark and secretive nature in the ''Night Fall'' books.

* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: During her childhood, Downplayed. While Akko has friendships in the other children made fun form of her for coming from a family of witches.
* AscendedFanboy: Subverted --
Lotte, Sucy, Amanda, Jasminka, and Constanze, she is offered the chance to become the next ''Night Fall'' author but rejects it often ridiculed by Hannah and Barbara because then she would always be spoiled on the story and have nothing to look forward to.
* BadassAdorable: Probably one
of the cutest witch that you'll ever seen, Her glasses and shy personality also helps her lack of magic as well as being cute. She sometimes faces monsters with the laughingstock occasionally for her magical powers, alongside mishaps. And except for Ursula and Holbrooke, many of the teachers (especially Finneran) think of her as an incompetent student.
* AmbiguouslyBi: While she does have ShipTease
with Akko & Sucy.
* BerserkButton: If someone insults
Andrew and is implied to have feelings for him, she also has some moments with Diana as well that can be interpreted as subtext, such as her reaction to her love confession under the influence of the Lovelove Bee in "Bee Affection" being near identical to her reaction to Andrew's confession and becoming openly huggy and affectionate towards her once they become friends, Lotte will make sure that they regret it.
* BespectacledCutie: She always wears glasses, and it's easy to notice how cute she is
on top of holding hands with it.
* BlackBeadEyes: Has solid pale blue dots for eyes. But without
her glasses, [[http://68.media.in both the second opening and the finale. She also almost kisses Sucy in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld" in order to give her the medicine needed to wake her up, showing no qualms about kissing another girl (instead being concerned about taking Sucy's first kiss). [[WordOfGod Yoshinari]] would also later state in ''[[https://sushiobunny.tumblr.com/70c5db377d5e2967d12e817f32eeddc2/tumblr_ojv0plW73L1swnfbuo1_1280.png com/post/165058394750/so-im-compiling-interesting-stuff-from-the Little Witch Academia Chronicle]]'' that Akko isn't interested in guys, which combined with the above, gives credence to the possibility that Akko is at the very least, not straight. However, Akko's sexuality has not been confirmed in canon. [[invoked]]
* AmusingInjuries: It's a wonder Akko hasn't had a serious concussion by now: getting
her eyes head rammed into something hard is nearly a OnceAnEpisode event.
* AnimalMotifs: The same as her favorite animal to transform into -- the mouse.
* {{Animorphism}}: By "Samhain Magic Festival", and as shown in the second [=OP=] and [=ED=] songs, transforming into animals (albeit cartoonish ones that
are considered "crappy" in contrast to other witches' more realistic transformations) has become Akko's specialization.
* ArmorPiercingQuestion: Akko gives one to Diana on where her loyalties lie.
* AscendedFangirl: Having grown up watching and idolizing Shiny Chariot, she now attends Luna Nova to become
like everyone else's.her idol. There's also the fact that her main teacher and (in the TV series) personal mentor, Professor Ursula, is ''actually'' Shiny Chariot herself.
* AshFace: She causes a big-ass explosion during her fundamental alchemy exam, destroying a window, a part of the wall around the window, and giving her an unwanted makeover.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: She has a habit of not really paying attention when others talk. This also presents itself in an ItsAllAboutMe fashion as unless it's about how she can learn some magic spell or Shiny Chariot, she probably already stopped listening to a while ago. Even then, she will probably only pay attention for a short time.
* AudienceSurrogate: She's from a muggle lineage and often has to have magical concepts explained to her (just as they're being explained to the audience).
* BadassAdorable: Cute design? check! Badass Witch? Check! Powerful weapons? Check!
* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: She gets a GoldenSuperMode in the final battle that allows her to breathe in space with Diana by her side who has the same SuperMode similar to [[Anime/KillLaKill Ryuko in "Past The Infinite Darkness"]].
* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Subverted. She's got some scrapes to show from her rampant clumsiness as a little child.
* BerserkButton: She gets angry and argues back to the point of being irrational whenever somebody talks negatively about her idol, Shiny Chariot.
* BlitheSpirit: A muggle who changes the lives of multiple witches by attending a magic academy.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The brunette to Sucy's blonde and Lotte's redhead.
* BookDumb: While she finds the Luna Nova classes boring and often falls asleep in them, she's proven to be quite clever, innovative, and creative.
* BrattyTeenageDaughter: Downplayed. Akko isn't completely bratty and is a genuinely NiceGirl most of the time, but she can be short-tempered, lazy, rude, childish and self-entitled at times and is frequently seen as an immature and irresponsible troublemaker by several characters early on (especially by Sucy and Diana). [[CharacterDevelopment She slowly grows out of this and becomes a bit more mature]] over the course of the series.
* BreakTheCutie: "Things We Said Today" is a huge one for her after learning [[spoiler:Chariot took away her magic during the time she was at her show.
]]
* CuteBookworm: Very bookish BreakTheHaughty: Downplayed. While Akko was never ''haughty'' per se, she did have a tendency to be cocky and downright adorable overestimate her actual abilities and didn't put much hard work into her studies early on, thinking she didn't need to. However, after learning that there are no shortcuts to becoming good in "The Fountain" and her failed attempt to cheat had nearly led to her getting expelled in "Orange Submariner", this attitude of hers quickly changes, and by the end of the first cour, Akko is much more hard-working and better aware of her weaknesses then she was early on.
* BrilliantButLazy: Akko tends to frequently sleep in class and generally prefers to do anything other than actually sitting down and study, but when she puts her mind to it, she can be bright, creative, clever and quick thinking, which has saved her and/or her friends quite a number of times. She begins to [[CharacterDevelopment slowly step out of this territory]] in later episodes as she starts to take her studies more seriously, even if she remains a bit of a slacker.
* BrokenPedestal: [[spoiler:Her idolization of Chariot becomes shattered when she learns that Chariot stole her magic during her childhood
for it.

* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The redhead ButForMeItWasTuesday: She generally doesn't dwell on many of her adventures, nor does she really seem to Sucy's blonde care about the consequences they bring. Case in point: she has a ''long'' track record of reckless behavior as pointed out by the Dean, but she talks about them casually as if those were natural occurrences.
* ButtMonkey: Hardly an episode goes by where Akko doesn't receive an amusing injury of some kind,
and Akko's brunette.
that's not counting the multiple times her attempts at magic either fail, or [[EpicFail blow up in her face]].
* DarkIsNotEvil: She carries around [[SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset a lantern shaped like a skull]], but CatchPhrase:
** In the Japanese version, Akko is quite fond of exclaiming "Yay!" in English. In the English dub,
it's "Alright!"
** "''Doki doki no waku waku''" in most episode previews; it means "It's so thrilling and exciting!" If it's missing, the episode is extremely serious.
* CelibateHero: Downplayed. Akko is implied at least once to harbor feelings for Andrew and shares
a [[MementoMacGuffin family heirloom]] decent amount of ShipTease with him, [[AmbiguouslyBi Diana and Sucy]]. That said, in spite of this, in ''Chamber of Time'', she shows little interest in the topic of romance when brought up and openly admits to at least one student to have never fallen in love with anyone when asked the question. WordOfGod has also stated in the ''[[AllThereInTheManual Little Witch Academia: Chronicle]]'' book that helps she is the type of girl to not be interested in guys at all. [[invoked]]

continues to struggle to catch up to her classmates. By "Bee Affection", she's able to perform the Metamorphosis spell well enough to make a kaiju squirrel, as well as not screw up her part in the Cinderella-kit ritual. And by the end of the series, Akko can not only perform the Metamorphosis spell near flawlessly and shapeshift into various animals on a dime, but [[spoiler: she can also fly]].
* DudeMagnet: When TheChosenOne: Her determination and courage summons the [[ArtifactOfHope Shiny Rod]] in the TV show and she's the one that starts reviving the Seven Enchanted Words with the rod, hinting that she's been specifically chosen for this job.
* ClassicalAntiHero: The main protagonist who is a repeated ButtMonkey with low self-esteem and has to ''really'' work at mastering magic.
* ControlFreak: During the Happy Time Project in ''The Enchanted Parade'', as she constantly pushes her ideas forward and eggs on her colleagues into giving her the things she wants for the project. It's only after she messes with her friends up and cooperates with her fellow teammates does anything go according to plan.
* CrushBlush: She blushes quite a bit when her possible love interest Andrew is under the influence of
the Lovelove Bee was doing its thing, it just so happened to sting all four members of Andrew's posse, and also when Sucy and Lotte just so happened tease her about her crush on Andrew near the end of "Bee Affection".
* {{Determinator}}: Akko is determined
to be a great witch like Shiny Chariot, even though she's not from a wizarding family and lacks basic skills that all witches should have, not to mention that Shiny Chariot isn't viewed favorably in the wizarding community:
** At the end of
the first girl they laid their eyes on. film, her faith in Shiny Chariot allows her to defeat the dragon by using the Shiny Rod just like Chariot did in her stage shows.
** In ''The Enchanted Parade'', after Sucy and Lotte leave the Happy Time Project, she decides to try planning out the witch parade herself, involving choreography, the float design and even doing enough research to make at least four tall stacks.
** In the TV series, her determination is the thing that seems to summon the Shiny Rod. Even with a giant cockatrice after them, having to carry Lotte and Sucy not even bothering to help, she refuses to give up in getting into Luna Nova.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Her status as the determinator has her assuming she can achieve whatever she wants to and be just like her hero while putting in no actual effort to study or research what she's getting into.
Subverted when the bee's as she generally manages to achieve or come close to achieving her goals with just pure determination.
* TheDitz: PlayedWith and ultimately {{subverted}}. She is clumsy, reckless and naïve to a fault, and [[BookDumb lacks any knowledge of
magic wears off, though Frank still found prior to attending Luna Nova outside of her attractive, limited exposure to it via her love of Shiny Chariot]]. As a result, she is often regarded as an idiot and even asked a laughing stock by many of her on a date.
peers and some of the professors. That said, she really isn't dumb and can be quick thinking, clever and creative.
* DoNotCallMePaul: While it's not clear if Akko likes being called by her real name, "Atsuko", it's heavily implied that she prefers to be referred to as "Akko" instead, given how she constantly tells people to call her as such instead of "Atsuko".
* TheDogBitesBack: After being harshly derided and berated by Diana throughout the first cour, "New Age Magic" has Akko bite right back at Diana and actually [[NotSoStoic break her usually stoic demeanor]] by berating her blind and callous attitude and lack of understanding towards the suffering of others that are less privileged than her.
* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: [[spoiler: Akko's eyes become this in "Yesterday" after finding out that Chariot drained her magic and is the reason why she's an IneptMage. Her eyes eventually reverted back to normal thanks to her heart-to-heart with Diana.]]
* EasilyForgiven: [[spoiler:Akko forgives Chariot for stealing her magic and thanks her for the support and lessons she has given by offering her another chance to redeem herself.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Offering Akko a ride Excitedly arriving at the town close to Luna Nova after some reluctance, Nova...and having no idea how to get there, which establishes her as kind bubbly, energetic, and willing to reach out to those in need.

* EyeGlasses: Her eyes fill up her whole glasses frame.
* FireForgedFriends: With Akko and Sucy. This is especially true concerning the former. So much so that in "Yesterday", Lotte is brought to tears by the thought
FailureMontage: The series often shows a collection of scenes of Akko leaving, completely adrift failing at whatever (usually magical) task she's supposed to be doing.
* FanGirl: Akko is a major one towards Shiny Chariot, who she frequently gushes about and is her main inspiration for wanting to become a witch in the first place, much to the disapproval of her classmates (particularly Diana). Unsurprisingly, it's due to her blind idolization of her that one of her {{Berserk Button}}s is insulting Chariot in front of her and it's [[spoiler:[[BrokenPedestal why she takes it so hard after learning that Chariot stole her magic at the very show that made her a fan in the first place]]]].
* FatalFlaw: '''Impatience'''. One of the biggest reasons why she struggles so greatly with magic is that she is too impatient to sit still and study magic the hard way. Because of this, she often makes rash decisions in an attempt to speed things up that -- more often than not -- lead to trouble. Tellingly, out of the seven words, she struggles the most with "Mayinab Dyssivyrdd" ("To see it through, patience is important") and [[AesopAmnesia ends up forgetting it by episode 21]], which [[WhatTheHellHero gets her called out by Ursula]].
* FearlessFool: One of her biggest flaws. Akko is incredibly determined and fearless, which combined with her impulsive and reckless nature, leads her to frequently jump into situations quite recklessly and foolishly
without her.
thinking of the consequences. Sometimes this does work out in her favor, while other times it does not.
* FictionalDisability: [[spoiler:Akko's magical potential was drained at a young age, which gives her what is essentially a magical developmental disability]].
* FieryRedhead: Inverted. Unlike Downplayed. Akko has maroon (brownish-crimson) hair, but has ''energy''.
* FlightIsTheFinalPower: While Akko does develop
her fellow red-headed friend [[LovableRogue Amanda]], Lotte is a fairly even-tempered gal with orange hair.
* GoodIsBoring: She admits this is
magic steadily as the reason series goes on, it's only by the end that she tolerates and even admires Akko's occasional JerkassBall, as she knows [[spoiler:finally develops the ability to finally fly a broom]].
* ForcedTransformation: Frequently turns into animals unintentionally due to her botching transformation magic; notably,
she's too even-tempered to ever really achieve anything memorable whereas Akko's passion can drive her to greatness.
stuck as a mouse for most of "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail."
* HairstyleInertia: Lotte kept her hairstyle ForeignExchangeStudent: A girl from Japan who attends the British witch academy Luna Nova.
* GenerationXerox: Akko and Diana's relationship, dynamic, and school performance heavily mirrors what Chariot and Croix once had in their Luna Nova days. For the final episode, both are even outfitted with
the same white {{Custom Uniform}}s their predecessors often wore in the past.
* GenkiGirl: Doesn't take a lot for her to bounce back.
* GirlyGirlWithATomboyStreak: Akko is largely feminine for the most part, but she has an incredibly fiery personality, is quite athletic and has no qualms about getting messy, even being proud of the scars she received over the years. She is also a bit unmannered and rude at times as well.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: She has faded scars on her ankle, knee, and elbow
from her youth.
* TheHeart:
injuring herself when she was little from trying to learn how to fly from a tree, hill, and roof, respectively. Each time, she fell and got banged up really badly. She's the emotional center rather proud of the main trio thanks to her empathy and kindness.
* InnocentBlueEyes: Lotte has blue eyes and is the nicest between her, Sucy, and Akko.
* JustFriends: Invoked by Lotte in regards to her and Frank,
them, as she finds the idea of suddenly dating someone she barely knows to be weird and wants to start by being friends with him first.
* TheKirk: To Akko's [[TheMcCoy McCoy]] and Sucy's [[TheSpock Spock]]. Despite being easily the most empathetic and selfless, she's as well the most levelheaded and balanced individual among them, with Akko being kind of a hothead and Sucy often being a {{stoic}}, apathetic jerk.
* LosingTheTeamSpirit: After Akko pushes her buttons one too many times, and snaps at her before becoming sullen and decided to leave the Happy Time Project.
* MeaningfulName: "Lotte" might be a short form of "Liselotte" or "Annelotte" meaning "Gracious" or "sweet", two traits that match Lotte. It can also be a short form of "Charlotte", which is a feminine French form of "Charles", which means "man" or "warrior"; however, this name is of Germanic origin, making it unlikely to refer to Lotte, who is Scandinavian.
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Her family name is a reference to Creator/ToveJansson, the Finnish-Swedish creator of ''Literature/TheMoomins''. Jansson is
actually a pretty common Swedish surname, but "Pohjola's Ordeal", Lotte's DayInTheLimelight episode, is chock full of Moomin {{Shout Out}}s, which makes it clear that naming her after Tove Jansson was intentional.
* NiceGirl: While a bit shy, she's a very sweet, selfless and kind girl, and the most even-tempered in the main trio.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the nice one amongst the main trio, as she's quiet, mild-mannered and gentle compared to her more abrasive teammates.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When Akko rips up the sheet music to Lotte's ancestral song, Lotte gets so frustrated that she blows up in Akko's face, telling her to GetOut of her room. The next time
treats them like they meet up, Lotte is gloomy and more prone to speak her mind. Sucy lampshades the change after the first confrontation.
* OutOfFocus: Lotte ends up suffering this along with Sucy during the second cour of the series. The second cour of the series ends up focusing on Akko's quest to revive the Seven Enchanted Words, the backstory of Shiny Chariot, the introduction of Professor Croix, and characters like Diana, Amanda, and Constanze getting [[ADayInTheLimelight spotlight episodes]]. So Lotte and Sucy ended up finding themselves pushed more to the background.
* PhotographicMemory: At least in regards to the ''Night Fall'' series, a 365-volume epic which she seems to have completely memorized, down to random 10-digit numbers and chemical formulas. The only question in the associated quiz-show that takes her more than a millisecond to answer is "what is the species of the third flower in the botanical garden in the town of the author's mother's piano teacher's husband's father's favorite bakery?"
* ScaryShinyGlasses: Her glasses shine whenever she becomes angry or upset.
* ShipTease: The series hints that Frank likes her, and she appears to be considering him.
* ShipperOnDeck: She and Sucy jokingly shipped Akko with Andrew
* ShrinkingViolet: Lotte is known to be shy and timid at times.
* ShoutOut: With her red hair and freckles, she looks like she could be a member of [[Franchise/HarryPotter the Weasley family]]. It helps that she is the main character's best friend like Ron is to Harry.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: While she wanted to start as friends with Frank, she did say that it's because she wants to take things slow before thinking about committing to a relationship. Lucky for Frank, as a NiceGuy who showed genuine attraction to her, dude has a pretty decent shot in the long term.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Her surname is occasionally translated as "Yanson". Regardless of which one the creators intended, "Jansson" is the correct Swedish spelling.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: "Pohjola's Ordeal" shows that Lotte gets her physical looks from her mother, while she inherited her eye and hair color from her father.
* SummonMagic: Her bread and butter
are summoning fairies.
battle scars.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Lotte wears a purple headband.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Make no mistake, the main trio are all good-hearted individuals, but she's the good-natured straitght-up NiceGirl compared to her two more abrasive friends, Sucy and Akko.
* YaoiFangirl: Downplayed, but she interprets Edgar's advances on Belle as an attempt to get Arthur's attention.
* YouthfulFreckles: Has freckles on her face, giving her a young and innocent look.

She and Akko butt heads frequently often and the former especially loves to subject the latter to her experiments (much to the latter's distaste), but they are also good friends who care deeply about each other. She is also Lotte and Sucy's) turns into a variant of Shiny Chariot's white garments. During '' Bee Affection'', she gets the Cinderella treatment from an antique shop item, and it produces a pink ball gown.
* GreenEyedMonster: One of the major reasons why Akko disliked Diana so heavily at first was out of envy towards the noble's greater skill and popularity compared to her. She does come to terms with it somewhat by the end of "What You Will", sadly accepting that she'll never be on par with Diana and learning to not compare herself to her. She also shows some envy towards Andrew's popularity a couple of times as well, though not to the same extent.
* HasAType: The little bit of ShipTease Akko has with people seems to imply that she likes strong willed aristocratic types with a HiddenHeartOfGold. [[AmbiguouslyBi Diana and Andrew]] both fill that role for her.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: [[spoiler: While so many people scoff at it,

She's still a JerkWithAHeartOfGold who cares deeply about her friends, but world. Even before that, it's more subtle compared to the films.
that exact passion is why Akko presses on after she learned that Chariot stole her magic.]]
---> '''Diana:''' I believe in your believing heart.
* AmbiguouslyGay: When HeightAngst: Akko is about shocked to kiss Sucy awake inside her mindscape, Dragon!Sucy (which is made up of all of her stray thoughts and inner desires) gets hearts in its eyes and becomes very sad when the Original Sucy denies Akko the kiss. It should also be noted hear that out of the main trio, Sucy is the only one who doesn't get ShipTease with male characters. She also expressed no interest in any guys in "Bee Affection", unlike Akko and Lotte.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The blonde (purple hair) to Akko's brunette and Lotte's redhead.
* BrutalHonesty: She tells everyone exactly what's on her mind and exactly how she sees things. In particular, she showed no restraint in telling Akko that she's not really being the best of friends to Lotte.
* TheCameo: Makes an extended cameo in "The Mysterious Power's Trap" of ''Anime/SpacePatrolLuluco''.
* CreepyChild: With her pale skin, deadpan expression and voice, and interests that most people would find disturbing, she clearly gives off this vibe.
* CreepyMonotone: She speaks in a morose and raspy monotone, which adds to her generally unsettling nature.
* CreepyShadowedUndereyes: Sucy has some pretty visible dark circles under her eyes, further enhancing her creepy demeanor.
* CustomUniform: As you can see, the length of her
dress extends all the way past the floor. She's the only Diana let her borrow is something Diana last wore as a ''eleven-year-old'', but begrudgingly admits it fits her perfectly.
* TheHero: The central

* DeadpanSnarker: Prone to making witty remarks while wearing the exact same emotionless and gloomy expression.
* DemotedToExtra: Hit brutally with this in the latter half of the series. While Lotte at least gets a few bits of a spotlight, Sucy's lucky to even get more than a few lines per episode.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Her introduction in the anime has her using her potions against Akko, such as bringing a bird doll to life to peck her eye and turn ropes into snakes. She does this while not saying anything and maintaining a straight face, cementing her status as a stoic but mischievous prankster.
* ForeignExchangeStudent: From Southeast Asia and is studying at Britain-based Luna Nova.
* TheGadfly: In "Bee Affection", she releases a "Lovelove Bee", which causes people to fall in love. She says she just wanted to mess with Akko.

needs it most.]]



** Discussed and PlayedForLaughs in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", which shows Sucy as having a wild assortment of widely different interests and sides to her personality, with angel and devil Sucy remarking to Akko that the Sucy she sees every day is only a tiny fraction of her true self.
** A trip into her mind reveals that, despite being snarky, cold, and sometimes even antagonistic towards Akko, Sucy considers their meeting a cherished memory.
** She is seen doing meditation and yoga in "Blue Moon", which is the first time Sucy is seen having any hobbies that aren't related to potions or fungi.
** The versions of her she sends to the guillotine in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", the episode that takes place in her mind are stray thoughts and impulses, the process of killing them or letting them live is similar to the workings of the Freudian Super Ego. In other words, for her otherworldly trickster witch facade, she has a fairly mundane set of values and scruples.
** When she overhears Hannah and Barbara make fun of her and her teammates (calling her "Creepy Sucy" in particular), Sucy cracks her neck several times. This shows that, for all her aloofness and snarkiness towards her friends, she won't tolerate others making fun of them. Furthermore, this could also hint that Sucy may care how others think of her, at least to a degree.
* HypocriticalHeartwarming: Sucy will use her friends (especially Akko) for her experiments and snark at them whenever she wants, but if someone else does any of these things, she won't stand for it. For example, overhearing Hannah and Barbara (who are Akko's main bullies) make fun of her and her team is enough to get her to crack her neck in irritation.
* ItAmusedMe: Will cause chaos and hurt others if it means she can get something out of it and/or alleviate her boredom.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Sucy is more than willing to use her friends (usually Akko) for her experiments, but cares about them just the same.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: A witch-in-training knowledgeable in magical poisons and the most malicious in her group. Despite her young age, her aloof and calm demeanor makes her fit this more than BlackMagicianGirl.
* LovingBully: She likes to pick on Akko, but it's shown that Akko is ''very'' close to her heart.
* MadScientist: She's the magical equivalent of a mad scientist. She loves coming up with new potions and poisons, then testing them out on unsuspecting victims, [[WithFriendsLikeThese mostly her friends]]. Her EstablishingCharacterMoment is her trapping Akko and Lotte in a net as bait for a cockatrice so that she can steal one of its feathers as an ingredient for her newest potion.
* MakeupIsEvil: Well, not evil, but she's hands down the meanest in her group of friends, and the one drawn with makeup.
* MasterPoisoner: Her potion knowledge makes her pretty deadly. She tosses her concoctions into a minotaur's mouth, which causes it to melt from the inside out and through the floor. Said minotaur had overpowered Hannah, Barbara, Akko, and even Diana.
* MesACrowd: Her inner thought world is populated entirely by Sucys who represent various aspects of her personality.
* MeaningfulName:
** Her name derives from "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barang_%28Visayan_word%29 mambabarang]]", a dark sorcerer in the Cebuano language in the Philippines. Also doubles as a BilingualBonus.
** A possible (if reaching) example, but the "Mamba" part of her name could refer to the venomous snake, befitting her fixation with poisons.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Sucy has a row of shark-like teeth, perhaps to enhance her morally dubious character.
* NervesOfSteel: Not a single one of the monsters she has faced has fazed her for a second, even when they're about to eat her.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the mean one amongst the main trio, as she's an aloof jerk and NightmareFetishist who tends to cause chaos and subject her friends (Akko in particular) to her experiments, often unwillingly so. She's still a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, of course.
* NightmareFetishist: She's very much interested in dangerous potions, mushrooms, dark magic, and, in general, her interest is piqued by nearly anything sufficiently unpleasant to everyone else. In the series, she enjoys the foul-smelling fumes given off by a potion, and she's downright ''giddy'' at the prospect of being eaten by and passing through the digestive tract of a ghost.
* NonSpecificallyForeign: In contrast to the other main characters, Sucy's home country is not made clear, as her home country on her profile is listed as merely being Southeast Asia, with no specific country being mentioned. There are hints in the series that imply that she's from the Philippines (such as her holding a Walis Tambo broom in the first episode), but there's no confirmation on if she is from there. This is averted in Teri Terio's manga, where she goes to the Philippines to see her family, with the country being name-dropped at one point, confirming her as being from there.
* NumberOfTheBeast: The Original Sucy's room number within Sucy's mindscape is 666.
* OutOfFocus: Sucy ends up suffering this along with Lotte during the second cour of the series. The second cour ends up focusing on Akko's quest to revive the Seven Enchanted Words, the backstory of Shiny Chariot, the introduction of Professor Croix, and characters like Diana, Amanda, and Constanze getting [[ADayInTheLimelight spotlight episodes]]. So Lotte and Sucy ended up finding themselves pushed more to the background.
* ParentalAbandonment: [[spoiler:WordOfGod has stated that she was abandoned as a baby in front of an orphanage with nothing but a bottle of poison. It is the only thing Sucy has of her birth parents, and her reason for being at Luna Nova is to trace its origins in hopes of finding them.]][[note]]This may be a trolling story by the creator, but it is at least plausible.[[/note]] [[invoked]]
* PlayingWithSyringes: Her hobby is experimenting with potions and the like on people, usually Akko.
* PsychoticSmirk: Prone to giving these when pulling a prank or seeing the chaos of one of her pranks unravel. Also sported when she melted the minotaur in the film.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Indicator that she's dangerous.
* {{Sadist}}: She likes pulling pranks that can potentially harm people and seemed pretty amused at putting Akko and Lotte's lives on the line with the cockatrice. The film also has her giggling after one of her poisons melted the minotaur through the ground.
* ShipperOnDeck: She and Lotte jokingly shipped Akko with Andrew.
* ShooOutTheClowns: Her antics is a source of constant humor (usually at [[ButtMonkey Akko's expense]]). Once CerebusSyndrome hits, Sucy fades from the narrative fast.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is her last name "Manbavaran" or "Mambabarang"?
* TheSpock: To Lotte's [[TheKirk Kirk]] and Akko's [[TheMcCoy McCoy]]. She's generally fairly apathetic and stoic, and often acts jerkish.
* TheStoic: Sucy rarely emotes and almost always has a flat affect and tone, unless something happens to tickle her fancy, which is usually anything morbid.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Aloof and sarcastic, but does have a soft spot for her closest friends.
* TaremeEyes: She has rather droopy eyes, whose lids are more often than not lowered, giving her a rather unamused look most the time.
* TokenEvilTeammate: All of the students misbehave a little bit, but Sucy regularly does a lot of mischief, so she counts as one for the student body. Of course, she's not a bad person by any means, but she's easily the most jerkish amongst the main trio.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Implied. She carries around mushrooms, compliments a mushroom dish she ate in "The Fountain", has mushrooms pop up in her ADayInTheLimelight in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", and is shown drinking a mushroom-flavored drink.
* TheTrickster: In spades, she enjoys playing tricks on people (mostly Akko). She says it herself:
-->"There is nothing more fun than messing with you, Akko."
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: She stores her magic wand in her chest area, despite being apparently flat as a board.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Akko doesn't much like that she's constantly used for experiments, and Sucy doesn't like that Akko likes to be at the forefront of operations. Despite this, they still hang out together. In the series, it's implied that most of the reason Sucy hangs out with Akko is that Akko will inevitably screw up and something funny will happen.
* WickedWitch: A rare heroic example of this. She's a witch like everyone else. However, she is the only student that really gives creepy vibes and is obsessed with potions.

to:

** Discussed and PlayedForLaughs in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", which shows Sucy as Akko is able to understand fish language (which is considered a very difficult animal language) without having to transform into a wild assortment merman within the span of widely different interests and sides a day. Also, while it's easy to her personality, miss with angel and devil Sucy remarking to TranslationConvention in effect, the Japanese Akko must be fluent in English, and possibly other languages; She has no issue interacting with the multinational classmates of her British boarding school (or even the citizens outside of it), nor any special trouble reading and writing in English. She may have a knack for picking up languages.
** While Akko comes off as being very confident about herself, it's heavily implied in several episodes that she is more insecure than she lets on, as she constantly compares herself to more skilled witches like Diana and Chariot, lamenting about her lack of talent and/or skills in comparison. A line she states in "Bee Affection" also implies she's insecure about her looks, which is implied again after finding out
that the Sucy dress she sees every day is only a tiny fraction of her true self.

** The versions of her she sends to the guillotine in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", the episode that takes place in her mind are stray thoughts and impulses, the process of killing them or letting them live is similar to the workings of the Freudian Super Ego.

This shows that, for all her aloofness and snarkiness towards her friends, she won't tolerate others making fun of them. Furthermore, this could also hint that Sucy may care how others think of her, at least to a degree.
* HypocriticalHeartwarming: Sucy will use her
friends (especially Akko) from many sticky situations.
** She also has a genuine talent
for showmanship and entertainment, just like her experiments and snark at them whenever she wants, but if someone else does any of these things, she won't stand for it. For example, overhearing Hannah and Barbara (who are idol.
** If Diana's reaction to
Akko's main bullies) make fun plum seaweed tea at the end of her chapter 5 in Keisuke Satō's manga is any indication, Akko is good at making tea. Ironically, as the game later reveals, Akko doesn't actually care much for tea.
** In the light novel, Akko notices that Stone Doras looks like a torii, which she briefly attempts to explain what it is to a confused Lotte
and her team is enough to get her to crack her neck in irritation.
* ItAmusedMe: Will cause chaos and hurt others if it means she can get something out of it and/or alleviate her boredom.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold:

* LadyOfBlackMagic: A witch-in-training

She tosses her concoctions into ends up falling behind in a minotaur's mouth, which causes flying-broom race. So to catch up, she takes advantage of a rogue high-speed broom by ''*ahem*'' [[CrazyEnoughToWork firing herself at it to melt from a cannon, and chaining herself to it so it can't escape.]] It was almost enough to reach second place before the inside out broom broke apart.

* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the mean one amongst the main trio, as
interview her while she's an aloof jerk still wailing uncontrollably.
* IneptMage: As a muggle, she has no real background in magic
and NightmareFetishist who tends no parents or relatives to cause chaos teach her properly. This shows up prominently at Luna Nova, where she can't cast spells properly or even ride a broom. This was chalked up to initially not taking her studies seriously. However, even after she starts putting in the work, she's still noticeable having much more difficulty than the average student, with transformation magic being pretty much the only thing she's gotten down. [[spoiler:The reason is actually far more tragic]]. However, [[spoiler:the very end of the series seems to indicate she's recovering. One of the show's last shots is her finally flying her broom for the first time.]]
* InterclassFriendship: While she doesn't start off on the best terms with either early on, by the second cour, she becomes friends with {{Blue Blood}}s Diana
and subject Andrew.
* InSeriesNickname: She prefers to go by "Akko". Her actual given name of "Atsuko" is almost never mentioned.
* ItsAllAboutMe:
** Her biggest issue with Fafnir stealing the Sorcerer's Stone initially is only that it was done while she was still in school, and therefore an inconvenience to ''her'' learning magic (even though she is called out repeatedly for not keeping up in class).
** Subverted in "New Age Magic". Akko's original intention in talking the faeries out of their strike was so she doesn't have to deal with having to study magic through massive books. However, upon hearing them out and their reasons for striking, she ends up empathizing with them and ultimately joins their cause, becoming their spokesperson.
* ItsAllMyFault: Akko is shown to be incredibly guilty and remorseful after she [[spoiler:indirectly caused Ursula to lose the ability to fly in "Discipline"]] and is shown apologizing to Ursula and taking the blame for it in the episode afterward.
* JerkassBall: She genuinely means well and is a reasonably nice person most of the time, but she can be somewhat cocky and self-absorbed, and has a frequent tendency to place her own feelings above those of
her friends (Akko in particular) to her experiments, often unwillingly so. She's still a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, of course.
* NightmareFetishist: She's very much interested in dangerous potions, mushrooms, dark magic, and, in general, her interest is piqued by nearly anything sufficiently unpleasant to everyone else. In the series, she enjoys the foul-smelling fumes given off by a potion,
and not even consider that what she's downright ''giddy'' at doing is wrong or potentially dangerous. It comes to a head in ''The Enchanted Parade'' when she takes things too far and both Lotte and Sucy end up briefly abandoning her as a friend, after they've decided that they've had enough of her crap. This was [[AdaptationalNiceGuy toned down in the prospect series]], but she still has her moments of being eaten by self-absorbed and passing through the digestive tract reckless at some point.
* JerkassHasAPoint: In ''The Enchanted Parade'', As much
of a ghost.
* NonSpecificallyForeign: In contrast to the other main characters, Sucy's home country
an insensitive {{Jerkass}} Akko was about it, she is not made clear, as right that Lotte should have spoken up about her home country on her profile is listed as merely feelings instead of bottling them up and being Southeast Asia, with no specific country being mentioned. There are hints in quiet about it, which Lotte does acknowledge, before [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor she does exactly that]].
* JerkassRealization:
** In ''The Enchanted Parade'', Lotte starts giving Akko
the series that imply cold shoulder for accidentally ripping her family's music sheet while trying to use it for their parade without permission. When Sucy suggests that she's from the Philippines (such as been bottling up her holding a Walis Tambo broom in the first episode), but there's no confirmation on if she is from there. This is averted in Teri Terio's manga, where she goes feelings due to the Philippines to see her family, with the country [[ExtremeDoormat being name-dropped at one point, confirming her as being from there.
* NumberOfTheBeast: The Original Sucy's room number within Sucy's mindscape is 666.
* OutOfFocus: Sucy ends up suffering this along with
pushed around by Akko all the time]], Akko remarks why Lotte during can't be forward with her feelings instead of acting gloomy and depressing all the second cour of the series. The second cour ends up focusing on time. Unfortunately, Lotte is standing right behind her when she says this, so she [[BrutalHonesty bluntly]] states that she thinks Akko's quest to revive ideas for the Seven Enchanted Words, parade will fail and that she wants no part in it, leaving Akko to desperately try to take back her words. [[spoiler:When Lotte changes her mind and returns for a BigDamnHeroes moment to deliver a hand-made replica of the backstory of hat worn by Shiny Chariot, the introduction of Professor Croix, and characters like Diana, Amanda, and Constanze getting [[ADayInTheLimelight spotlight episodes]]. So Lotte and Sucy ended up finding themselves pushed more to the background.
* ParentalAbandonment: [[spoiler:WordOfGod has stated that she was abandoned as a baby in front of an orphanage with nothing but a bottle of poison. It is the only thing Sucy has of her birth parents, and her reason for being at Luna Nova is to trace its origins in hopes of finding them.]][[note]]This may be a trolling story by the creator, but it is at least plausible.[[/note]] [[invoked]]
* PlayingWithSyringes: Her hobby is experimenting with potions and the like on people, usually Akko.
* PsychoticSmirk: Prone to giving these when pulling a prank or seeing the chaos of one of her pranks unravel. Also sported when she melted the minotaur in the film.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Indicator that she's dangerous.
* {{Sadist}}: She likes pulling pranks that can potentially harm people and seemed pretty amused at putting Akko and Lotte's lives on the line with the cockatrice. The film also has her giggling after one of her poisons melted the minotaur through the ground.
* ShipperOnDeck: She and Lotte jokingly shipped Akko with Andrew.
* ShooOutTheClowns: Her antics is a source of constant humor (usually at [[ButtMonkey
Akko's expense]]). Once CerebusSyndrome hits, Sucy fades inspiration for the parade and becoming a witch in general, Akko gives her a big, tearful hug and apology for being such an insensitive jerk.]]
** After she found out about the [[spoiler: death of her parents]] through Anna in "Cavendish", Akko quickly begins to regret and feel guilt over some of her past behavior towards Diana.
* KarmicJackpot:
** Her decision in defending the Faeries' strike earned her the creatures' friendships. So much so, that she and her roommates are spared when the Faeries' rampage against the Witches.
** Her commitment to her friends and Shiny Chariot is what ultimately allowed her full access to the Grand Triskellion's real power.
* KnownOnlyByTheirNickname: Pretty much everyone just calls her Akko, and she frequently introduces herself like that.
* LeeroyJenkins: She's extremely stubborn and impatient, and as a result often runs headlong into a situation without really considering the consequences. This is toned down as she undergoes CharacterDevelopment.
* MageBornOfMuggles: Akko comes
from a non-magical family, which contributes to her [[IneptMage ineptitude in magic]] so much that she can't even fly a broom properly.
* MagicSkirt: Akko has
the narrative fast.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is
shortest hemline of all the characters in the show, but never flashes her last name "Manbavaran" or "Mambabarang"?
underwear.
* TheSpock: MagneticHero: It is due to Akko's genuine kindness that so many people including her idol are absolutely loyal to her.
* MasterOfOneMagic: Despite being an IneptMage who can't even fly a broom on her own power [[spoiler:(until the end anyway)]], she becomes surprisingly adept at the series' resident Polymorph spell (to the point of easily switching between multiple forms on the fly by episode 20).
* TheMcCoy:
To Lotte's [[TheKirk Kirk]] and Akko's [[TheMcCoy McCoy]]. Sucy's [[TheSpock Spock]]. She's generally fairly apathetic the most impulsive and stoic, hotheaded by far, while Lotte is very levelheaded and often acts jerkish.
* TheStoic:
the nicest in the trio, and Sucy rarely emotes is an aloof, apathetic, stoic and almost always has kind of a flat affect and tone, unless something happens to tickle jerk.
* MeaningfulName: Depending on the writing,
her fancy, given name can have various meanings, such as "warm child" (温子?) or "passion/heat child" (熱子?), both which is usually anything morbid.
fit her personality.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Aloof and sarcastic, but does {{Mukokuseki}}: In contrast to the European characters, who mostly have a soft spot for her closest friends.
* TaremeEyes: She has rather droopy
narrow and angular eyes, whose lids are more often than not lowered, giving the Japanese Akko has very wide and round {{Moe}} eyes, ironically making her a rather unamused look most the time.
* TokenEvilTeammate: All of the students misbehave a little bit, but Sucy regularly does a lot of mischief, so she counts as one for the student body. Of course, she's not a bad person
''least'' Asian-looking character by any means, comparison. [[invoked]]
* MythicalMotifs: Subtle example,
but she's easily given the most jerkish amongst phoenix motif -- she was able to ride a self-flying broom that is shaped like a phoenix and one of her transformations in the second opening resembles the magical bird.
* NaiveNewcomer: Especially in the anime, she joins Luna Nova and the witches' world as a muggle with not much knowledge on magic nor the school she's joining.
* NewTransferStudent: She is one of the new people in Luna Nova.
* NiceGirl: She's a kind individual and a loyal friend overall, though she can be a little cocky and self-absorbed at times.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: When she rips up Lotte's ancestral sheet music, she upsets Lotte so much that she leaves the project. After arguing with Sucy, she causes her to leave the Happy Time Project as well.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Amongst
the main trio.
trio, she's in-between Lotte and Sucy. She's an energetic NiceGirl who cares deeply about her friends, but at the same time, she is prone to being quick-tempered, childish, selfish, lazy and a bit of a troublemaker.
* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: Being a GenkiGirl, Akko often gets very huggy with people she likes, and she once even manages to catch Diana off guard.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: Akko fully admits to Ursula in Episode 21 that she doesn't actually care much about the quest for the seven words in the first place and that she's only collecting the words in the first place in order to finally meet Shiny Chariot.
* NotQuiteBackToNormal: In "Orange Submariner" of the series, she at first wasn't able to speak the fish language, but after turning herself into a humanoid fish and then being transformed back she retained the ability to speak to fishes.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: In "Stanship Take Off", Akko remarks to Constanze how they are very similar, despite their differing personalities, stating that they are both determined and obsessed witches who desire to achieve their dreams no matter what anyone says.
-->'''Akko''': ''"Hey I was just thinking...aren't we kind of similar? Ever since we were little we were obsessed with just one thing! It didn't matter what anyone else said about it, we just go straight down the paths we chose."''
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: The usually slack Akko begins weirding out her friends by ''studying hard'' and ''paying attention in class'' in "Orange Submariner", since this is her new motivation following the events in previous episodes. It slowly becomes CharacterDevelopment, as she's shown diligently working hard more often, such as with her tutoring sessions with Professor Ursula and reading about the Words.
* {{Omniglot}}: She starts off fluent in her native Japanese and in English. She later gains a full understanding of fish language while studying in Luna Nova.
* PainToTheAss: In episode 8, she gets poked in the butt by a tiny demonic version of Sucy.
* PlatonicLifePartners: After the creator of the series [[ShipSinking shot down any plans of her and Andrew getting together]], WordOfGod compared their relationship to "a playful [[OneOfTheGuys guy-guy relationship]]." [[invoked]]
* RageBreakingPoint:
** In "Orange Submariner", After finding out that she might leave Luna Nova through Diana's fortune and then once again getting mocked by Hannah and Barbara, as well as getting tripped by them intentionally afterward, Akko simply loses it and actually gets into a physical fistfight with the two bullies in a fit of rage.
** In Episode 21, Akko yells at Ursula when she sees that the latter is seemingly more interested in claiming the Grand Triskellion than her student's well-being.
* RebuiltPedestal: With a little pep-talk from Diana, Akko is able to reconcile with Ursula and restore Chariot's spot as her idol.
* RedOniBlueOni: Passionate and reckless Red to Diana's collected and rational Blue. Bonus points [[ColorCodedCharacters for sporting the matching colors]].
* RepeatWhatYouJustSaid: She's utterly surprised that Diana would ever say "thank you" to her, so Akko asks Diana to repeat it. Diana vehemently refuses, even as Akko keeps digging into her.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Akko's transformation spells are noted to be more on the cute cartoonish side, rather than looking realistic like everyone else's.
* TheRival: As Diana is the top student in Luna Nova with a slightly haughty attitude towards the BookDumb Akko, Akko sees Diana as a rival and feels the need to compete with her.
* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: Upon learning that Daryl and her daughters have sabotaged Diana's trials, Akko forces her way in to save her classmate.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: At the end of "Blue Moon", she's given the choice of jumping right into her future as a witch similar to Shiny Chariot at the cost of forgetting her past. Akko rejects the offer, saying her friends and mistakes are also important.
* ShoutOut: Her name (both her full name ''and'' her nickname) references Atsuko "Akko" Kagami from ''Manga/HimitsuNoAkkoChan'', one of the earliest {{Magical Girl}}s.
* SignatureMove: Once she finally gets the hang of using it, she tends to use the spell "Metamorphie Fasciesce" (a transformation spell) to solve just about every problem. When doing so, her favorite form to take is a mouse.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Has a tendency to over-inflate her ([[IneptMage practically non-existent]]) abilities when she sets her mind to being just like Chariot, especially when she assumes that that alone is enough. To her credit, that alone is enough...most of the time. Her abilities are shown to be pretty strong in "Bee Affection" though.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: She becomes fluent in fish, and perfectly understands Professor Pisces when she speaks at the end of that particular episode.
* StanceSystem: Later on in the series, during a battle against some giant snakes, she switches between various animals depending on the situation (like turning into an elephant when her mouse form was about to get eaten, or turn into a tortoise when she needed defense).
* StockShonenHero: Gender-Inverted. She's loud, [[HotBlooded very impulsive]], [[BigEater eats a lot]], wants to be a witch to follow her idol's footsteps, [[BookDumb is not very knowledgeable]], [[ButtMonkey most of her misfortunes are played for laughs]], and makes up for her lack of smarts and talent by [[{{Determinator}} sheer determination]]. [[spoiler:Both her childhood dream and lack of talent take a tragic turn when a certain event of her and her idol's past is revealed.]]
* StrawmanHasAPoint: [[invoked]] While Akko admits that she's prolonging the strike that will affect everyone, she feels that it's just as bad to take advantage of the workers who had it worse than the witches. She's actually not wrong and her friends acknowledge that. So far, all the Witches have been doing is delaying the problem and have no real means to permanently solve it. Even if Croix had to manipulate the conflict, it exposes the Witches's incompetence and ultimately, Akko is right.
* SuperiorSuccessor: Diana admits to Akko that she holds the spirit and ideals of Shiny Chariot far better than anyone else, even Chariot herself. She also manages to collect all the seven words and therefore [[spoiler:restore magic to the world]], which Chariot failed to do when she was chosen to do the quest.
* SuperMode: In the final battle, she gets a silver colored outfit that protects her from the vacuum of space and when combined with the power of the Shiny Rod is [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu able to defeat]] a [[NukeEm magically enhanced nuke]].
* TaughtByExperience: Sucy claims Akko to be the type who learns more from experience as opposed to traditional schooling in ''Chamber of Time''. She isn't wrong.
* TheTeamNormal: The only one out of the main trio born from both muggle parents. [[spoiler:Turned into a plot point later in the series, where it's revealed her magical potential was severely limited by attending Chariot's show, bringing her even further down to normal. This limited potential and her initial laziness in putting the work in and studying is why she's still this.]]
* TearsOfJoy: In ''The Enchanted Parade'', she does this when Lotte gives her a handmade witch's hat modeled after Shiny Chariot's during the witch parade.
* ThisLoserIsYou: [[invoked]] According to [[WordOfGod Yoh Yoshinari]], [[https://wavemotioncannon.com/2017/01/03/yoh-yoshinari-interview-animestyle-032013-part-33/ Akko was created to represent wannabe animators]] who think [[IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance raw passion can make up for an utter lack of technique]]. That was the concept behind her first appearance in the films; however, the series proper went in a different direction as to the reason behind her lack of talent than just the Dunning-Kruger Effect. In either case, though, the ultimate message is that it takes hard work, in addition to passion, to realize your dreams.
* TookALevelInBadass: She has very little magic at the start making her pretty weak due to [[spoiler:Shiny Chariot draining her magic]] but her accessing the full power of the Shiny Rod is able to allow her to get it all back and [[spoiler:she's able to one-shot an Eldritch Abomination made up of an entire country's negative emotional energy]]. Also in the final episode, [[spoiler:Akko is finally able to fly.]]
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Implied. She carries around mushrooms, compliments Pickled plums are shown to be a mushroom dish she ate in "The Fountain", has mushrooms pop up in her ADayInTheLimelight in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", favorite snack of her's and is frequently shown drinking a mushroom-flavored drink.
* TheTrickster:
with it across the franchise, even describing it as "everything nice" in Pact of the Dragon". In spades, she enjoys playing tricks on people (mostly Akko). fact, it was her carrying it with her that caused her, Lotte and Sucy to land in Arcturus Forest in "Starting Over".
* TragicDream:
She says it herself:
-->"There is
wants nothing more fun than messing to be a witch so that she can use magic to [[ForHappiness spread joy to everyone]], just like her idol, Shiny Chariot. [[spoiler:In a cruel twist, the performance that inspired her so much was only possible because Chariot siphoned off the magical potential of the audience members, including Akko herself, putting her severely behind the curve when she actually enrolls at Luna Nova. If she hadn't gone to that fateful show, she wouldn't have had nearly as much trouble with you, Akko."
magic, but she also never would have discovered her interest in it in the first place. Fortunately, the finale suggests that she can make her dream happen eventually -- it'll just be a much longer and more difficult road than expected.]]
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: {{Tsundere}}: Type-B. Akko is a kind and caring girl. However, besides her occasional JerkassBall, she is quite quick-tempered in general and has a tendency to start up fights if provoked.
* UndyingLoyalty:
** To Professor Ursula and Chariot, expressing her love and admiration for both, both before and after she learns that [[spoiler:they're one and the same, and after she hears what Chariot unwittingly did to her. This is, of course, after some healthy dejected crying, introspection, and the encouragement of her classmates.]]
** To her classmates, as she understands that by attending Luna Nova, they're effectively pursuing the same dream together.
She stores will not abide to anyone leaving while she can do anything about it.
* UnskilledButStrong: Diana states that
her magic wand can easily be stronger than hers with enough passion but she is considered an idiot with no finesse. [[spoiler:The reality is actually quite different in her chest area, despite being apparently flat as the TV series.]]
* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Treated more sympathetically than most, but still qualifies due to creating most of the problems she faces.
* UnwantedAssistance: To Constanze in "Stanship Take Off!" when it comes to building
a board.
weapon for TheWildHunt... at first, until Constanze realizes that Akko's stubbornness and willingness to interact with people come in handy.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Akko Develops a few squabbling yet genuine friendships with a few girls:
** She is constantly the guinea pig of Sucy's experiments and
doesn't handle her sarcasm well, but the two do care for each other (most evident when Akko goes through a lot of effort to save Sucy in her dreams, and it's shown Sucy cherishes her first meeting with Akko and is willing to back her up if the situation calls for it, i.e. the Samhain Festival).
** She bickers with Amanda quite a bit in the series but they nevertheless enjoy their company and consider Luna Nova boring without each other.
** Once she and Diana are able to set aside their differences and admit their respect for each others' strengths, their bickering becomes more playful.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: The one magical discipline that Akko develops an actual talent for is the spell ''Metamorphie Fasciesce'', which lets her transform into various animals.
* WeakButSkilled: Unlike in the films, Akko in the TV series is actually
much like that weaker than her peers [[spoiler:thanks to Chariot unknowingly [[HandicappedBadass draining her magical potential]] as a child]], leaving her to rely more on clever and unorthodox usage of her magic. [[BrilliantButLazy That she's constantly used for experiments, incredibly lazy and just expects to be good at things without wanting to put the effort in at first]] is also a hindrance until she finally starts putting the work in.
* WhatTheHellHero: Both Lotte
and Sucy doesn't like that call her out on her control freak tendencies after Akko likes to be accidentally rips the sheet music for Lotte's ancestral song in the movie. She admits her mess up and apologizes at the forefront of operations. Despite this, they still hang out together. In the series, it's implied that most of the reason Sucy hangs out with Akko is that Akko will inevitably screw up and something funny will happen.
* WickedWitch: A rare heroic example of this. She's a witch like everyone else. However, she is the only student that really gives creepy vibes and is obsessed with potions.

Akko's best friend and roommate from Finland. She
tends to cause be rather quiet and bookish compared to her more loud and abrasive friends, which makes her come off as being a bit invisible at times, but she is a kind-hearted girl who is very loyal to her friends. She has the unique ablity to summon spirits from numerous acts of delinquency (particularly robbery). Although she can be a bit hot-blooded and rude, she is highly caring and loyal towards objects, which allows her friends.to commuicate with them. She is also a passionate ''Night Fall'' fangirl.



* TheAce: Invoked. She could easily be the very best broom rider at school, but her tendency to show off doesn't earn her any favors.
* ActionGirl: A witch who loves being adventurous and doing all she can to rebel or spice things up. She also wins the sword duel with Appleton Academy's Louis (the son of the minister of defense).
* AdaptationalBadass: Amanda in ''The Enchanted Parade'' could barely hold her own against Thomas and his gang before getting her ass handed to her by them, whereas in the TV series, she effortlessly beats Louis in a sword duel, both with and without magic.
* AdaptationalJerkass: While still a caring and loyal person, she is shown to be more of a jerk in the TV Series continuity and in the Keisuke Satō manga than in ''The Enchanted Parade'' and tends to belittle and/or insult Akko often, even after [[VitriolicBestBuds becoming friends with her]].
* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: Downplayed between her and Akko in the TV series. While the two are still close friends, they're a bit more [[VitriolicBestBuds vitriolic]] and the two tend to butt heads a lot more than they did in ''The Enchanted Parade'', where they got along immediately.
* AnimeHair: Even among the rest of her fellow students, her spiky red and orange colored hair stands out.
* {{Bifauxnen}}: Her disguise as an Appleton Academy boy, with slicked-back hair and the uniform suit, looks sharp indeed.
* BadassInANiceSuit: In order to fit in with the other male students, Amanda tends to wear a very classy and sharp looking suit when sneaking into Appleton Academy.
* BigThinShortTrio: The Thin one to Constanze's Short and Jasminka's Big.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The redhead to Jasminka's blonde and Constanze's brunette.
* ClassyCatBurglar: The reason she got in trouble in ''The Enchanted Parade'' was because she attempted to steal a priceless artifact. She even had a SpyCatsuit.
* ClothingReflectsPersonality: In contrast to the other main characters, Amanda is shown to wear sports sneakers as opposed to slip-on shoes and her T-shirt has a slightly disheveled look compared to her peers, both of which reflect her tomboyish and rebellious personality.
* DanceBattler: In "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail", her gymnastic Broom dance style is very useful in a duel.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Frequently appears in the series but is the main character with Akko in "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail".
* {{Delinquents}}: She committed petty thievery in ''The Enchanted Parade'' and does all sorts of things just to break the rules.
* DoesNotLikeMagic: It's revealed in the 2017 manga that Amanda hates magic, finding it to be pointless and used only for scummy stuff.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Amanda has one in both ''The Enchanted Parade'' and in the TV series.
** Amanda is first introduced in ''The Enchanted Parade'' by sneaking into the archives to steal a priceless artifact, with one of her mugshots later having her [[FlippingTheBird flip off the camera]] while sticking her tongue out, immediately establishing her as a rebellious delinquent.
** In the TV series, Amanda is properly introduced in "Don't Stop Me Now" by recklessly flying around on a broom, quickly establishing her as a reckless and fun loving troublemaker. That same episode also re-establishes her delinquent side by having her sneak in and steal the Shooting Star broom.
* {{Eagleland}}: She's an Irish-American student. In ''The Enchanted Parade'' she's a bit cool and aloof and was introduced after she got in trouble for trying to steal from the magic school's vaults, but gets along well with her fellow "problem students" and has no qualms helping Akko out when they're put in charge of putting together the titular parade. Her TV series portrayal depicts her as a feisty rebel who likes to go by her own rules and causes trouble simply because she's bored. However, she's very protective of her friends and will jump at the first chance to help them, no questions asked.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Hannah definitely does, after the former saw her [[WholesomeCrossdresser wearing a suit]].
* {{Expy}}: She is one to [[Anime/KillLaKill Ryuko]], being a rough-and-tumble, [[MsFanservice fanservice-y]] {{tomboy}} with a bright red streak in her BoyishShortHair. It certainly helps that ''Little Witch Academia'' was also made by Creator/StudioTrigger.
* FireForgedFriends: In "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail", Amanda sticks with Luna Nova simply to have more adventures with Akko.
* FieryRedhead: Has orange/red hair and a feisty personality.
* FightingIrish: A brash, tough-talking Irish-American young lady who won't hesitate when challenged to a fight.
* FightsLikeANormal: Shown to be able to fight without using her magic in "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail" when she's challenged to a sword duel (where her opponent Louis does taunt that she might as well use magic since she's hopeless). [[CurbStompBattle She utterly humiliates him]].
* FlippingTheBird: Her introductory scene in ''The Enchanted Parade'' has her do this in one of the mugshots.
* {{Foil}}:
** To Diana. Both are talented broom flyers, come from a wealthy family, are (though in different senses) JerkWithAHeartOfGold types, and have a [[VitriolicBestBuds vitriol]]-like relationship with Akko. However, the proper and responsible Diana came to Luna Nova to make sure her family's reputation remained polished, while the brash and rule-breaking Amanda was forced to coming to Luna Nova by her parents and acts out as a result.[[note]]Amanda's backstory may be the creator's trolling, but it is plausible and is canon in the 2017 manga.[[/note]] While Amanda manages to work out her differences with Akko almost immediately, Diana doesn't get around to it until the series is almost over.
** She's also one to Akko. Both are hot-headed, boisterious and rebellious witches who use magic in unorthodox ways and both share a vitriolic relationship with Diana early on. However, whereas Akko is an inexperienced witch who is passionate about magic, Amanda is a rather skilled witch who {{does not like magic}} due to her family. Furthermore, whereas Akko's troublemaking is mostly unintentional and despises the idea of leaving Luna Nova, Amanda intentionally causes trouble out of rebellion and desires to drop out due to not wanting to be confined by the school, only deciding to stick around due to her friendship with Akko.
* FriendlyRival: There are times when she acts like this with Akko, although unlike Diana they do not seem to consider themselves rivals as such.
* ItAmusedMe: Played with. During her focus episode, she frequently states that she wants to quit the academy because she argues that she's mostly driven by her own amusement and the conformity and rules imposed on her go against her principles; later, her adventure with Akko makes her realize that the academy is worth it because ''Akko is there''. Akko herself tells her that she will not abide to Amanda quitting either.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Amanda is brash, rude, and breaks rules on a near-daily basis. But she's loyal and compassionate to her friends.
* TheLadette: Amanda is a rude, fun-loving, brash, boisterious, foul-mouthed and rebellious tomboy who has no problems getting into fights when challenged.
* LadySwearsALot: Downplayed. She doesn't swear a ton, though she cusses a bit more frequently compared to the other main characters.
* TheLastDJ: Gets poor marks despite being a very talented witch, because she just won't play by the rules. When called on this by Akko she makes it clear that this is a point of pride for her.
* LegFocus: Amanda is a dancer, in addition to being a thief, and the franchise takes plenty of opportunities to show off her nimble, lithe legs.
* LovableRogue: Amanda is a trouble-making witch with a genuine heart of gold.
* MeaningfulName: While it's disputed, "O'Neill" may mean "descendant of the passionate". And boy is she passionate.
* MsFanservice: She used to be in a SpyCatsuit and also likes dancing. There's also [[LegFocus plenty of shots dedicated to showing her legs and thighs]].
* PhenotypeStereotype: She's a SignificantGreenEyedRedhead of Irish-American background.
* TheReliableOne: She is ''always'' there to support her friends unconditionally, regardless of whether it's a good or bad idea.
* SceneryCensor: When her act transitions from gymnastic (turning midair swings) to her pole-dancing, the animators turn her spinning body into a smear/blur.
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Her dancing is very similar to pole-dancing and can come off as mildly seductive.
* SignificantBirthDate: Her birthday falls on St. Patrick's Day, an Irish/Irish-American holiday (March 17th).
* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Orange/red hair with light green eyes. She also becomes one of the most important characters in the sequel film and TV series.
* SpyCatsuit: Wore a catsuit during her thieving days.
* StockForeignName: Her surname is "O'Neill", suggesting she is of Irish-American descent.
* TsurimeEyes: She has narrow, upwards arching eyes.
* UndyingLoyalty: No matter what happens, Amanda will always pull through for her friends and help them in any way she can.
* WholesomeCrossdresser: In "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail", she dresses up as a boy to infiltrate a boy's high school.

* TheAce: Invoked. AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She could easily be the very best broom rider at school, but her tendency to show off doesn't earn her any favors.
* ActionGirl: A witch who loves being adventurous

Both are talented broom flyers, come from a wealthy family, are (though in different senses) JerkWithAHeartOfGold types, and have a [[VitriolicBestBuds vitriol]]-like relationship with Akko. However, the proper and responsible Diana came to Luna Nova to make sure her family's reputation remained polished, while the brash and rule-breaking Amanda was forced to coming to Luna Nova by her parents and acts out as a result.[[note]]Amanda's backstory may be the creator's trolling, but it is plausible and is canon in the 2017 manga.[[/note]] While Amanda manages to work out her differences with Akko almost immediately, Diana doesn't get around to it until the series is almost over.
** She's also one to Akko. Both are hot-headed, boisterious and rebellious witches who use magic in unorthodox ways and both share a vitriolic relationship with Diana early on. However, whereas Akko is an inexperienced witch who is passionate about magic, Amanda is a rather skilled witch who {{does not like magic}} due to her family. Furthermore,

* FriendlyRival: There are times when she acts like this with Akko, although unlike Diana they do not seem
to consider themselves rivals as such.
* ItAmusedMe: Played with. During her focus episode, she frequently states that she wants to quit the academy because she argues that she's mostly driven by her own amusement and the conformity and rules imposed on her go against her principles; later, her adventure with Akko makes her realize that the academy is worth it because ''Akko is there''.

* TheKirk: To Akko's [[TheMcCoy McCoy]] and Sucy's [[TheSpock Spock]]. Despite being easily the most empathetic and selfless, she's as well the most levelheaded and balanced individual among them, with Akko being kind of a hothead and Sucy often

* LosingTheTeamSpirit: After Akko pushes her buttons one too many times, and snaps at her before becoming sullen and decided to leave
the rules. When called on Happy Time Project.
* MeaningfulName: "Lotte" might be a short form of "Liselotte" or "Annelotte" meaning "Gracious" or "sweet", two traits that match Lotte. It can also be a short form of "Charlotte", which is a feminine French form of "Charles", which means "man" or "warrior"; however,
this by Akko she name is of Germanic origin, making it unlikely to refer to Lotte, who is Scandinavian.
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Her family name is a reference to Creator/ToveJansson, the Finnish-Swedish creator of ''Literature/TheMoomins''. Jansson is actually a pretty common Swedish surname, but "Pohjola's Ordeal", Lotte's DayInTheLimelight episode, is chock full of Moomin {{Shout Out}}s, which
makes it clear that this is naming her after Tove Jansson was intentional.

* OutOfFocus: Lotte ends up suffering this along

The only question in the associated quiz-show that takes her more than a millisecond to answer is "what is the species of the third flower in the botanical garden in the town of the author's mother's piano teacher's husband's father's favorite bakery?"

Later in the same episode, she has Stanbot ask one of the goblin chefs for a favor, but when rejected, [[http://gph.is/2qt4kOe she gesticulates]], but cannot seem to say a word and gives up. [[spoiler:She finally speaks in the last episode, getting one of the final lines of the series]].

* SchizoTech: Compared to Croix's {{Magitek}}, Constanze's tech tends to come off this way as a mix of 20th-century technology with a decided SteamPunk vibe, compared to Croix hyper-modern 21st-Century computer tech with EverythingIsAnIpodInTheFuture aesthetics.

** In ''The Enchanted Parade'', she transforms her wand into a [[http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/253/499/999 submachinegun]] reminiscent of the [[http://modernfirearms.net/userfiles/images/smg/smg39/walther_mpl_2.jpg Walther MPL]].
** In "Pact of the Dragon", she transforms her wand into a pump-action shotgun to fend off the attacking dragons, and later on switches to a rocket launcher resembling an RPG-7.
** In "Stanship Take Off!", she brandishes an [[http://imgur.com/2qW5too MP5K with a 15-round magazine]] at an intruding Akko. Unlike the above examples, this particular weapon does not have any features from her wand at all, being drawn quite accurately.

This shows that, for all her aloofness and snarkiness towards her friends, she won't tolerate others making fun of them. Furthermore, this could also hint that Sucy may care how others think of her, at least to a degree.
* HypocriticalHeartwarming: Sucy will use her friends (especially Akko) for her experiments and snark at them whenever she wants, but if someone else does any of these things, she won't stand for it. For example, overhearing Hannah and Barbara (who are Akko's main bullies) make fun of her and her team is enough to get her to crack her neck in irritation.
* ItAmusedMe: Will cause chaos and hurt others if it means she can get something out of it and/or alleviate her boredom.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Sucy is more than willing to use her friends (usually Akko) for her experiments, but cares about them just the same.
* LadyOfBlackMagic: A witch-in-training knowledgeable in magical poisons and the most malicious in her group. Despite her young age, her aloof and calm demeanor makes her fit this more than BlackMagicianGirl.
* LovingBully: She likes to pick on Akko, but it's shown that Akko is ''very'' close to her heart.
* MadScientist: She's the magical equivalent of a mad scientist. She loves coming up with new potions and poisons, then testing them out on unsuspecting victims, [[WithFriendsLikeThese mostly her friends]]. Her EstablishingCharacterMoment is her trapping Akko and Lotte in a net as bait for a cockatrice so that she can steal one of its feathers as an ingredient for her newest potion.
* MakeupIsEvil: Well, not evil, but she's hands down the meanest in her group of friends, and the one drawn with makeup.
* MasterPoisoner: Her potion knowledge makes her pretty deadly. She tosses her concoctions into a minotaur's mouth, which causes it to melt from the inside out and through the floor. Said minotaur had overpowered Hannah, Barbara, Akko, and even Diana.
* MesACrowd: Her inner thought world is populated entirely by Sucys who represent various aspects of her personality.
* MeaningfulName:
** Her name derives from "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barang_%28Visayan_word%29 mambabarang]]", a dark sorcerer in the Cebuano language in the Philippines. Also doubles as a BilingualBonus.
** A possible (if reaching) example, but the "Mamba" part of
her name during could refer to the relay race, Wangari lampshades that she is the "bane of announcers".
* PerpetualFrowner: Constanze hardly smiles,
venomous snake, befitting her fixation with poisons.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Sucy has
a frown being row of shark-like teeth, perhaps to enhance her default expression.
morally dubious character.
* PetTheDog: She gifts Akko NervesOfSteel: Not a modified broom with single one of the monsters she has faced has fazed her for a fan second, even when they're about to eat her.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Is the mean one amongst the main trio, as she's an aloof jerk
and a sail as a gesture of appreciation of having helped NightmareFetishist who tends to cause chaos and subject her during the Wild Hunt.
friends (Akko in particular) to her experiments, often unwillingly so. She's still a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, of course.
* TheQuietOne: Despite seemingly being a CuteMute for NightmareFetishist: She's very much interested in dangerous potions, mushrooms, dark magic, and, in general, her interest is piqued by nearly anything sufficiently unpleasant to everyone else. In the entire series, she [[spoiler:finally speaks enjoys the foul-smelling fumes given off by a single line potion, and she's downright ''giddy'' at the end prospect of being eaten by and passing through the finale]].
digestive tract of a ghost.
* RobotBuddy: Built NonSpecificallyForeign: In contrast to the other main characters, Sucy's home country is not made clear, as her home country on her profile is listed as merely being Southeast Asia, with no specific country being mentioned. There are hints in the series that imply that she's from the Philippines (such as her holding a Walis Tambo broom in the first episode), but there's no confirmation on if she is from there. This is averted in Teri Terio's manga, where she goes to the Philippines to see her family, with the country being name-dropped at one point, confirming her as being from there.
* NumberOfTheBeast: The Original Sucy's room number within Sucy's mindscape is 666.
* OutOfFocus: Sucy ends up suffering this along with Lotte
during the first Happy Time Project meeting, out second cour of a laptop that resembles the original Platform/PlayStation. In series. The second cour ends up focusing on Akko's quest to revive the TV series, she builds Seven Enchanted Words, the same buddy just before backstory of Shiny Chariot, the Samhain Festival. His name is "Stan" (the middle syllable introduction of her name). In "Stanship Take Off!", she has apparently about 20 or 30 of them in her secret underground lair.
* SchizoTech: Compared to Croix's {{Magitek}}, Constanze's tech tends to come off this way as a mix of 20th-century technology with a decided SteamPunk vibe, compared to Croix hyper-modern 21st-Century computer tech with EverythingIsAnIpodInTheFuture aesthetics.
* ShorterMeansSmarter:
Professor Croix, and characters like Diana, Amanda, and Constanze getting [[ADayInTheLimelight spotlight episodes]]. So Lotte and Sucy ended up finding themselves pushed more to the background.
* ParentalAbandonment: [[spoiler:WordOfGod has stated that she was abandoned as a baby in front of an orphanage with nothing but a bottle of poison. It
is the shortest member of the main cast and a crafty GadgeteerGenius.
* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: Uses a Magitek shotgun to fight off dragons. The handle
only thing Sucy has of her wand serves as birth parents, and her reason for being at Luna Nova is to trace its origins in hopes of finding them.]][[note]]This may be a trolling story by the pump-action.
creator, but it is at least plausible.[[/note]] [[invoked]]
* PlayingWithSyringes: Her hobby is experimenting with potions and the like on people, usually Akko.
* PsychoticSmirk: Prone to giving these when pulling a prank or seeing the chaos of one of her pranks unravel. Also sported when she melted the minotaur in the film.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Indicator that she's dangerous.
* {{Sadist}}: She likes pulling pranks that can potentially harm people and seemed pretty amused at putting Akko and Lotte's lives on the line with the cockatrice. The film also has her giggling after one of her poisons melted the minotaur through the ground.
* ShipperOnDeck: She and Lotte jokingly shipped Akko with Andrew.
* ShooOutTheClowns: Her antics is a source of constant humor (usually at [[ButtMonkey Akko's expense]]). Once CerebusSyndrome hits, Sucy fades from the narrative fast.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Is her last name "Manbavaran" or "Mambabarang"?
* TheSpock: To Lotte's [[TheKirk Kirk]] and Akko's [[TheMcCoy McCoy]]. She's generally fairly apathetic and stoic, and often acts jerkish.
* TheStoic: (Almost) never changes her frowning, grumpy expression.
* SuddenlyVoiced: She [[spoiler:speaks
Sucy rarely emotes and almost always has a single word at the very end of "Changing at the Edge of the World"]].
* TalkingWithSigns: Whenever she needs to communicate
flat affect and tone, unless something happens to tickle her fancy, which is usually anything morbid.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Aloof and sarcastic, but does have a soft spot for her closest friends.
* TaremeEyes: She has rather droopy eyes, whose lids are more often than not lowered, giving her a rather unamused look most the time.
* TokenEvilTeammate: All of the students misbehave a little bit, but Sucy regularly does a lot of mischief, so she counts as one for the student body. Of course, she's not a bad person by any means, but she's easily the most jerkish amongst the main trio.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Implied. She carries around mushrooms, compliments a mushroom dish she ate in "The Fountain", has mushrooms pop up in her ADayInTheLimelight in "Akko's Adventure in Sucyworld", and is shown drinking a mushroom-flavored drink.
* TheTrickster: In spades, she enjoys playing tricks on people (mostly Akko). She says it herself:
-->"There is nothing more fun than messing with you, Akko."
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: She stores her magic wand in her chest area, despite being apparently flat as a board.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Akko doesn't much like
that goes beyond grunts she's constantly used for experiments, and gestures, she writes it down.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: She wears a big red ribbon.
* TheVoiceless: She never speaks in actual words, just cute grunts, hums, and gasps. [[spoiler:Until the end of "Changing
Sucy doesn't like that Akko likes to be at the Edge forefront of operations. Despite this, they still hang out together. In the series, it's implied that most of the World" reason Sucy hangs out with Akko is that is.]]
Akko will inevitably screw up and something funny will happen.
* WeaponSpecialization: {{Magitek}}-based firearms, contradictory to WickedWitch: A rare heroic example of this. She's a witch like everyone else. However, she is the wands only student that all the other witches prefer to use:
** In ''The Enchanted Parade'', she transforms her wand into a [[http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/253/499/999 submachinegun]] reminiscent of the [[http://modernfirearms.net/userfiles/images/smg/smg39/walther_mpl_2.jpg Walther MPL]].
** In "Pact of the Dragon", she transforms her wand into a pump-action shotgun to fend off the attacking dragons,
really gives creepy vibes and later on switches to a rocket launcher resembling an RPG-7.
** In "Stanship Take Off!", she brandishes an [[http://imgur.com/2qW5too MP5K
is obsessed with a 15-round magazine]] at an intruding Akko. Unlike the above examples, this particular weapon does not have any features from her wand at all, being drawn quite accurately.
* WhenSheSmiles: It's surprisingly very cute when she does.

In contrast to her teammates, the other main characters, Amanda is shown to wear sports sneakers as opposed to slip-on shoes and Constanze, who can her T-shirt has a slightly disheveled look compared to her peers, both of which reflect her tomboyish and rebellious personality.
* DanceBattler: In "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail", her gymnastic Broom dance style is very useful in a duel.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Frequently appears in the series but is the main character with Akko in "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail".
* {{Delinquents}}: She committed petty thievery in ''The Enchanted Parade'' and does all sorts of things just to break the rules.
* DoesNotLikeMagic: It's revealed in the 2017 manga that Amanda hates magic, finding it to
be pointless and used only for scummy stuff.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Amanda has one in both ''The Enchanted Parade'' and in the TV series.
** Amanda is first introduced in ''The Enchanted Parade'' by sneaking into the archives to steal
a bit rough priceless artifact, with one of her mugshots later having her [[FlippingTheBird flip off the camera]] while sticking her tongue out, immediately establishing her as a rebellious delinquent.
** In the TV series, Amanda is properly introduced in "Don't Stop Me Now" by recklessly flying
around on a broom, quickly establishing her as a reckless and fun loving troublemaker. That same episode also re-establishes her delinquent side by having her sneak in and steal the edges, Jasminka is Shooting Star broom.
* {{Eagleland}}: She's an Irish-American student. In ''The Enchanted Parade'' she's
a NiceGirl who can pretty much get bit cool and aloof and was introduced after she got in trouble for trying to steal from the magic school's vaults, but gets along well with everyone.her fellow "problem students" and has no qualms helping Akko out when they're put in charge of putting together the titular parade. Her TV series portrayal depicts her as a feisty rebel who likes to go by her own rules and causes trouble simply because she's bored. However, she's very protective of her friends and will jump at the first chance to help them, no questions asked.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Hannah definitely does, after the former saw her [[WholesomeCrossdresser wearing a suit]].
* {{Expy}}: She is one to [[Anime/KillLaKill Ryuko]], being a rough-and-tumble, [[MsFanservice fanservice-y]] {{tomboy}} with a bright red streak in her BoyishShortHair. It certainly helps that ''Little Witch Academia'' was also made by Creator/StudioTrigger.
* FireForgedFriends: In "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail", Amanda sticks with Luna Nova simply to have more adventures with Akko.
* FieryRedhead: Has orange/red hair and a feisty personality.
* FightingIrish: A brash, tough-talking Irish-American young lady who won't hesitate when challenged to a fight.
* FightsLikeANormal: Shown to be able to fight without using her magic in "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail" when she's challenged to a sword duel (where her opponent Louis does taunt that she might as well use magic since she's hopeless). [[CurbStompBattle She utterly humiliates him]].
* FlippingTheBird: Her introductory scene in ''The Enchanted Parade'' has her do this in one of the mugshots.
* {{Foil}}:
** To Diana. Both are talented broom flyers, come from a wealthy family, are (though in different senses) JerkWithAHeartOfGold types, and have a [[VitriolicBestBuds vitriol]]-like relationship with Akko. However, the proper and responsible Diana came to Luna Nova to make sure her family's reputation remained polished, while the brash and rule-breaking Amanda was forced to coming to Luna Nova by her parents and acts out as a result.[[note]]Amanda's backstory may be the creator's trolling, but it is plausible and is canon in the 2017 manga.[[/note]] While Amanda manages to work out her differences with Akko almost immediately, Diana doesn't get around to it until the series is almost over.
** She's also one to Akko. Both are hot-headed, boisterious and rebellious witches who use magic in unorthodox ways and both share a vitriolic relationship with Diana early on. However, whereas Akko is an inexperienced witch who is passionate about magic, Amanda is a rather skilled witch who {{does not like magic}} due to her family. Furthermore, whereas Akko's troublemaking is mostly unintentional and despises the idea of leaving Luna Nova, Amanda intentionally causes trouble out of rebellion and desires to drop out due to not wanting to be confined by the school, only deciding to stick around due to her friendship with Akko.
* FriendlyRival: There are times when she acts like this with Akko, although unlike Diana they do not seem to consider themselves rivals as such.
* ItAmusedMe: Played with. During her focus episode, she frequently states that she wants to quit the academy because she argues that she's mostly driven by her own amusement and the conformity and rules imposed on her go against her principles; later, her adventure with Akko makes her realize that the academy is worth it because ''Akko is there''. Akko herself tells her that she will not abide to Amanda quitting either.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Amanda is brash, rude, and breaks rules on a near-daily basis. But she's loyal and compassionate to her friends.
* TheLadette: Amanda is a rude, fun-loving, brash, boisterious, foul-mouthed and rebellious tomboy who has no problems getting into fights when challenged.
* LadySwearsALot: Downplayed. She doesn't swear a ton, though she cusses a bit more frequently compared to the other main characters.
* TheLastDJ: Gets poor marks despite being a very talented witch, because she just won't play by the rules. When called on this by Akko she makes it clear that this is a point of pride for her.
* LegFocus: Amanda is a dancer, in addition to being a thief, and the franchise takes plenty of opportunities to show off her nimble, lithe legs.
* LovableRogue: Amanda is a trouble-making witch with a genuine heart of gold.
* MeaningfulName: While it's disputed, "O'Neill" may mean "descendant of the passionate". And boy is she passionate.
* MsFanservice: She used to be in a SpyCatsuit and also likes dancing. There's also [[LegFocus plenty of shots dedicated to showing her legs and thighs]].
* PhenotypeStereotype: She's a SignificantGreenEyedRedhead of Irish-American background.
* TheReliableOne: She is ''always'' there to support her friends unconditionally, regardless of whether it's a good or bad idea.
* SceneryCensor: When her act transitions from gymnastic (turning midair swings) to her pole-dancing, the animators turn her spinning body into a smear/blur.
* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Her dancing is very similar to pole-dancing and can come off as mildly seductive.
* SignificantBirthDate: Her birthday falls on St. Patrick's Day, an Irish/Irish-American holiday (March 17th).
* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Orange/red hair with light green eyes. She also becomes one of the most important characters in the sequel film and TV series.
* SpyCatsuit: Wore a catsuit during her thieving days.
* StockForeignName: Her surname is "O'Neill", suggesting she is of Irish-American descent.
* TsurimeEyes: She has narrow, upwards arching eyes.
* UndyingLoyalty: No matter what happens, Amanda will always pull through for her friends and help them in any way she can.
* WholesomeCrossdresser: In "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail", she dresses up as a boy to infiltrate a boy's high school.

[[Characters/LittleWitchAcademiaDianaCavendish See her page for tropes about her]]

to:

[[Characters/LittleWitchAcademiaDianaCavendish See * AdaptationalJerkass: Constanze is depicted as being quite aloof in the TV series and like with Akko and Amanda, she and Akko started off on relatively rocky terms before becoming friends unlike in ''The Enchanted Parade'', where the two get along immediately.
* AmbiguousSituation: It is never explained as to why [[spoiler:Constanze is able to suddenly speak in "Charging at the Edge of the World, despite episode 18 and WordOfGod implying that she isn't capable of speech]]. [[invoked]]
* BadassAdorable: Out of all
her page peers, Constanze displays by far the most direct combat ability with her arsenal of {{Magitek}} weaponry, which includes Shotguns, [=SMGs=] and Rocket Launchers.
* BigOlEyebrows: Her eyebrows are noticeably thicker than the other girls.
* BigThinShortTrio: The Short one to Amanda's Thin and Jasminka's Big.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The brunette (dark blue) to Jasminka's blonde and Amanda's redhead.
* ConspicuousGloves: To emphasize her GadgeteerGenius characteristic, Constanze is often drawn wearing heavy duty workman's gloves.
* CuteMute: Small and cute as a button, and it's heavily implied that she can't actually speak, given in "Stanship Take Off!" when she had to write on a blackboard to tell Akko she works alone. Later in the same episode, she has Stanbot ask one of the goblin chefs
for tropes a favor, but when rejected, [[http://gph.is/2qt4kOe she gesticulates]], but cannot seem to say a word and gives up. [[spoiler:She finally speaks in the last episode, getting one of the final lines of the series]].
* ADayInTheLimelight: "Stanship Take Off!" "[=StanShip=] of War" focuses on her.
* EmptyEyes: Mixed in with DullEyesOfUnhappiness due to her personality. Her eyes have no iris.
* {{Expy}}: She bears an uncanny resemblence to [[Manga/SgtFrog Koyuki Azumaya]].
* FireForgedFriends: In "Stanship Take Off!", Akko becomes a friend and (competition) partner to Constanze for the Wild Hunt.
* GadgeteerGenius: She uses technology with her magic to create complex gadgets and machinery.
* GermanicDepressives: She looks perennially gloomy and disinterested in anything that doesn't involve building stuff. "Stanship Take Off!" briefly shows a photo with her as a small child, already with a very grumpy expression on her face.
* IWorkAlone: Claims to believe this in "Stanship Take Off!", but grudgingly lets Akko work with her after the latter's persistence.
* InstantAwesomeJustAddMecha: Her battle ship's SuperMode, Magical Warrior Grand Charion, is basically a {{Magitek}}-powered Super Robot.
* IronicName: A variation. Constanze has the longest name out of the entire cast, and yet she's TheSpeechless.
* MageMarksman: Constanze's main weapon is a magic powered gun that is fueled by her wand.
* {{Magitek}}: Constanze's hobby is mixing technology with the school's magic. However, it's not something she's supposed to do on school grounds, as muggle tech is forbidden there in the movies, and looked down upon by the traditionalist teachers in the TV series.
* MugglesDoItBetter: Downplayed, but the "tech" aspect of her [[{{Magitek}} magic]] generally allows her to bypass a lot of magic-related problems other witches face, such as her mechanical broom being [[NoSell unaffected]] by Sucy's poison sabotage in "Don't Stop Me Now", or "Pact of the Dragon" when her machines remain functional even when the Philosopher's Stone is gone.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Despite her general seriousness and impatience towards people getting in the way of her projects, "Stanship Take Off!" reveals that even Constanze thinks converting her ship into a HumongousMecha is [[RuleOfCool awesome]].
* OverlyLongName: Her mugshot had an additional bit of paper with the rest of her name taped on to the bottom of the nameplate she held. After (remarkably successfully) reading off her name during the relay race, Wangari lampshades that she is the "bane of announcers".
* PerpetualFrowner: Constanze hardly smiles, with a frown being her default expression.
* PetTheDog: She gifts Akko a modified broom with a fan and a sail as a gesture of appreciation of having helped her during the Wild Hunt.
* TheQuietOne: Despite seemingly being a CuteMute for nearly the entire series, she [[spoiler:finally speaks a single line at the end of the finale]].
* RobotBuddy: Built one during the first Happy Time Project meeting, out of a laptop that resembles the original Platform/PlayStation. In the TV series, she builds the same buddy just before the Samhain Festival. His name is "Stan" (the middle syllable of her name). In "Stanship Take Off!", she has apparently

20 or 30 of them in her secret underground lair.
* SchizoTech: Compared to Croix's {{Magitek}}, Constanze's tech tends to come off this way as a mix of 20th-century technology with a decided SteamPunk vibe, compared to Croix hyper-modern 21st-Century computer tech with EverythingIsAnIpodInTheFuture aesthetics.
* ShorterMeansSmarter: Constanze is the shortest member of the main cast and a crafty GadgeteerGenius.
* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: Uses a Magitek shotgun to fight off dragons. The handle of her wand serves as the pump-action.
* TheStoic: (Almost) never changes her frowning, grumpy expression.
* SuddenlyVoiced: She [[spoiler:speaks a single word at the very end of "Changing at the Edge of the World"]].
* TalkingWithSigns: Whenever she needs to communicate something that goes beyond grunts and gestures, she writes it down.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: She wears a big red ribbon.
* TheVoiceless: She never speaks in actual words, just cute grunts, hums, and gasps. [[spoiler:Until the end of "Changing at the Edge of the World" that is.]]
* WeaponSpecialization: {{Magitek}}-based firearms, contradictory to the wands that all the other witches prefer to use:
** In ''The Enchanted Parade'', she transforms her wand into a [[http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/253/499/999 submachinegun]] reminiscent of the [[http://modernfirearms.net/userfiles/images/smg/smg39/walther_mpl_2.jpg Walther MPL]].
** In "Pact of the Dragon", she transforms her wand into a pump-action shotgun to fend off the attacking dragons, and later on switches to a rocket launcher resembling an RPG-7.
** In "Stanship Take Off!", she brandishes an [[http://imgur.com/2qW5too MP5K with a 15-round magazine]] at an intruding Akko. Unlike the above examples, this particular weapon does not have any features from her wand at all, being drawn quite accurately.
* WhenSheSmiles: It's surprisingly very cute when she does.

That said, they are highly loyal eat a ton, getting to Diana and care about her greatly.where she got into trouble at one point for constantly snacking during class. She is also incredibly strong as well.



[[AC:Tropes that apply to both]]
* AdaptationalJerkass: While they were jerks in the films, they merely served as Diana's GirlPosse in them and simply reinforced her own bullying and not much else. In the TV series, however, they're much more active in bullying and antagonizing Akko than in the films and have even gotten into a physical fight with her at one point (which granted, Akko started, but it was their bullying that provoked her into starting it, so they're not exactly blameless for it either).
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: The duo remains straight-up jerks in the films. In contrast, while they are still jerks in the TV series, they do offer their sincere thanks toward Akko for successfully managing to bring Diana back to Luna Nova and [[spoiler:are shown hanging out with the others by the end of episode 25]].
* AssholeVictim: They were both on the receiving end of a physical beating from Akko in "Orange Submariner", though given their stuck up and mocking behavior towards her, including having tripped her prior to the fight, it's a little difficult to feel bad for them.
* BetaBitch: They are Diana's lackeys who actively antagonize Akko. They're actually a good deal nastier at it than Diana usually is. Particularly in the TV series.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The brunette and redhead to Diana's blonde.
* BullyTurnedBuddy: The two start out as being snobbish bullies to Akko and friends, but by the epilogue, [[spoiler:they're shown to be hanging out with them on good terms, seemingly having become friends with them]].
* ButtMonkey: As often as they are bullies, fate turns them into this as well.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Downplayed. After the events of "Cavendish" and "Intellect and Sensibility", they appear to have stopped teasing Akko and sought her out to say "Thank You" for doing what they couldn't do - bring Diana back. It's still awkward because they can only muster blank looks while saying so, but they are trying at least. By the epilogue, [[spoiler:Barbara is reading a new ''Night Fall'' novel with Lotte, while Hannah is sharing sandwiches with Jasminka]].
* TheDividual: Outside of their appearances, they are largely identical, as they share the same personality and role, are never shown or introduced separately and are often treated as though they are one character. The TV series does slightly distinguish them a bit by making Barbara a ClosetGeek of ''Night Fall'' in contrast to Hannah, but outside of that, they largely remain identical.
* EnemyMine: In the Keisuke Satō manga, [[spoiler: Hannah and Barbara end up working with Lotte and Sucy, two people they're shown to dislike, in order to cure Diana of her illness.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The very first things they do upon in "Starting Over" is express displeasure towards the idea of a muggle joining Luna Nova and then mock Akko for her inability to fly and naivety upon meeting her, establishing them as haughty bullies.
* {{Fainting}}: They faint with shock twice in "Bee Affection" as first Andrew and then Diana profess love for Akko, not aware it's a [[LovePotion Lovelove Bee]].
* FanGirl: Hannah and Barbara are shown to be this to Diana, with the two frequently praising her and boasting to others about how wonderful and talented of a witch she is. They're also shown to be quite fond of Andrew as well as they've shown an attraction to him in "The Fountain".
* FantasticRacism: One of the reasons why they bully Akko in the TV series is due to her non-magical background, with both of them expressing the opinion that non-witches shouldn't be enrolled into Luna Nova.
* FoodAsBribe: In "New Age Magic", during the strike, they bribe a little fire fairy with a piece of wood so they can take a hot shower.
* GirlPosse: They follow Diana around like puppies and sing her praises at any given moment. However, they have nastier attitudes compared to their leader, and it is implied that they stick with Diana because they want to ride on the coattails of Luna Nova's star pupil, which was then subverted in episode 19, in which it's revealed that they're actually TrueCompanions.
* HeelFaceTurn: After spending nearly the entirety of the series as bullies, the epilogue has them [[spoiler:hanging out with Akko and friends, implying they're on good terms with them now]].
* {{Jerkass}}: They needlessly mock Akko and her friends, especially the former.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Downplayed. While they are stuck up jerks most of the time, they both care deeply about Diana and get very saddened when Diana leaves Luna Nova and after Akko brings her back, they actually thanked her for doing so (albeit reluctantly) and by the end, [[spoiler:the two are shown hanging out with the main group, implying they're on better terms with them]].
* LaserGuidedKarma: Their seesawing from bullying Akko to being the ButtMonkey tends to work on this.
* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: They both are, in a twofer:
** Hannah is named after a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannah_England British Olympic runner]].
** Barbara is named after either [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Parker_(athlete) another English runner]] or [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Parker_(writer) an American mystery author]].
** And both together are named after Joseph Hanna and William Barbera, the founders of Creator/HannaBarbera.
* PseudoRomanticFriendship: Hannah and Barbara are ''always'' holding hands and clinging to each other. They also take a shower together in "New Age Magic" (even though the immediate reason for that was [[spoiler:the strike of the fairies]]).
* SatelliteCharacter: They are always seen with Diana in the films. The TV series gives a bit more characterization and time away from Diana, but they're still predominantly just Diana's followers.
* ShoutOutThemeNaming: Named after an [[Creator/HannaBarbera American animation studio and its two creators]].
* ThoseTwoGirls: They're always together and exist primarily to make fun of Akko and friends, secondarily as a {{foil}} to Diana.
* TookALevelInKindness: In the TV series. Like the films, the duo started off as snobbish, bullying jerks to Akko and her friends. After Akko convinces Diana to return to Luna Nova, they give the former a genuine and proper thanks. And by the epilogue, they're [[spoiler:hanging out with the main group]].
* TrueCompanions:
** For much of the series, it seemed like Hannah and Barbara were just riding on Diana's coattails, basking in the reflected glory. Come "Cavendish", they are ''devastated'' by Diana leaving, revealing they were this all along. Later, they both make a point of personally thanking Akko for bringing their dear friend back to Luna Nova. [[spoiler:At the end of the series, they are seen hanging around with the main character group, along with Diana.]]
** To further showcase how much they care for Diana, in the Keisuke Satō manga, when Diana [[spoiler: gets ill from immolation disease, both of them freaked out tremendously and to cure her, the two ultimately decide to go as far as to team up with Sucy and Lotte (two people they hated) in order to find the ingreidents needed to make the antidote]].
* UndyingLoyalty: Hannah and Barbara are both incredibly loyal to Diana and will do anything to ensure her well-being, the Keisuke Satō manga being probably the best example of their loyalty to her as [[spoiler: they're willing to work with [[EnemyMine Lotte and Sucy]] to ensure Diana gets cured of her illness]]

[[AC:Tropes that apply to Hannah]]
* AmbiguouslyBi: While Hannah showed attraction to Andrew when he first visited Luna Nova in "The Fountain", it's also revealed in ''[[VideoGame/LittleWitchAcademiaChamberOfTime Chamber of Time]]'' that she became attracted to Amanda when the latter [[WholesomeCrossdresser dressed up in the suit]] [[{{Foreshadowing}} that she would later wear in "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail"]]. Hannah didn't know that it was Amanda at first until Akko told her. Hannah then tells Akko to keep quiet about this and that she would be keeping the picture of Amanda in the suit that Akko took for her. This is on top of her PseudoRomanticFriendship with Barbara.
* CuteLittleFangs: Hannah has notably sharper canines than the rest of the cast, aside from Sucy.
* NouveauRiche: [[invoked]] WordOfGod stated that Hannah and her family came into their wealth fairly recently, unlike Barbara and Diana, who are from OldMoney.
* PlayingWithFire: Hannah seems to like using this element for her spells.
* TsurimeEyes: She has sharper eyes to stare at others with arrogance.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Hannah wears a yellow ribbon to hold up her hair.

[[AC:Tropes that apply to Barbara]]
* ClosetGeek: Barbara is a fan of ''Night Fall'' but pretends to be otherwise when she and Hannah are at the ''Night Fall'' fan event.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Barbara has blue hair and eyes.
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: There was practically no difference between her and Hannah in the films outside of their designs, with both fulfilling the same overall role as Diana's GirlPosse. In the series however, while she's still just as much of a stuck up bully as Hannah, she is shown to secretly be a fan of the ''Night Fall'' series, separating her a bit from Hannah, who is shown to dislike it.
* HiddenDepths: Barbara is secretly into ''Night Fall''; the same novel series Lotte enjoys reading. [[spoiler:By the TV series finale, both can be seen reading from the newest book together.]]
* ShockAndAwe: Barbara seems to like using this element for her spells.
* TaremeEyes: She has droopier eyes for looking down on others.

In reality, she prestigious Cavendish family, Diana is a haughty, cold, stuck-up girl who is out to prove the legendary witch known greatness of witches and has no time for nonsense.\\
\\
She tends to look down on Akko for her troublemaking tendencies and naïveté,
as well as her love of Shiny Chariot, who inspired she claims to be a young fraud. Because of this, the two have a complicated relationship, with Akko into becoming a witch. While the regular world sees viewing her as a grand witch, the magic world sees her as an insult to witchcraft and magic. She quickly becomes attached to Akko and becomes her mentor figure in order to guide her "rival" (which is mostly [[UnknownRival one-sided]] on her quest to become the witch part).\\
\\
Still, in spite
of her dreams.snobbish attitude, she isn't without her noble qualities and deep down, she does genuinely care about the well-being of her peers, including Akko, who she has more in common with than she would care to admit.


Added DiffLines:

* AcademicAlphaBitch: She is the top student of Luna Nova and an incredibly intelligent and powerful witch from an old and prestigious family. However, she is also an incredibly haughty, unsympathetic, cold and stuck up {{Jerkass}} who tends to berate and look down on others for not living up to her standards of a witch (Akko being her most frequent target), on top of frequently putting herself on a pedestal and thinking she knows best due to her background. This was [[CharacterizationMarchesOn toned down]] after the franchise got rebooted starting with the TV series, though it's still present to an extent, particularly prior to her CharacterDevelopment in the second half.
* AcademicAthlete: Given that she is TheAce, this is to be expected. Besides being very intelligent, she is also a very talented broom flyer and her team has beaten Akko's team at volleyball in Keisuke Sato's manga.
* TheAce: An incredibly intelligent and powerful witch capable of spells even witches several times her senior are incapable of. On the flip side, though, this does lead to rash decisions and thinking she knows what's best.
* AdaptationalIntelligence: Although Diana was undeniably the top student in the films, the TV series puts much more emphasis on her intellect compared to the films, as she is constantly shown studying in multiple episodes, and knows how to do certain things that even her professors don't (such as knowing [[SpeaksFluentAnimal ancient dragon]]). She also isn't as immature and/or reckless as she can sometimes be in the films.
* AdaptationalJerkass:
** While she wasn't exactly the nicest person to begin with in the films, she was still a JerkWithAHeartOfGold who had some redeeming qualities. This is not the case in the Teri Terio manga, however, as the manga strips away most of her redeeming qualities and makes her into an even worse AlphaBitch than in the films, with her attacking Akko with a FauxFlame spell while laughing at her misfortune, on top of outright telling Akko that there's no hope for her and to go back to her country in chapter 2, something that drives Akko into tears.
** Downplayed in the Keisuke Sato manga. She is mostly in line with how she is portrayed in the TV series pre-CharacterDevelopment and she still has a heart of gold, but she is a bit more prone to insulting and belittling Akko compared to the TV series.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: In the films, Diana is an AcademicAlphaBitch who acts prejudiced against Akko for her love of Shiny Chariot, never misses a chance to berate her for lack of skill when it comes to magic, and refuses to help her when there's nothing for her to gain. In the TV series, Diana is helpful to the other students and a very hard worker when it comes to learning magic, while her criticisms of Akko come from a genuine (if slightly condescending) desire that she be a better student.
* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: The films and TV series differ in her portrayal. In the films, she's more prone to causing accidents and is easily more flustered by Akko's antics. In the TV series, she's more well-put together and is hard to fluster, most likely due to the slower pacing slowly revealing the HiddenDepths she harbors.
* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul: While she's still a {{Jerkass}} to her early on in the TV series, Diana is not as much of a bully towards Akko as she was in the films and she eventually becomes friends with her by the end, a development that never occurred in the films.
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: A line from Andrew implies she was ostracized for being a Shiny Chariot fan when she was younger:
-->'''Andrew:''' "As I recall, you were preoccupied with some strange magic... The other children thought it was creepy and kept their distance."
* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: While Diana's mother has been shown and is later revealed to have died, the whereabouts of her father and if he is still alive or not is not touched upon at all. Though Anna states to Akko that Diana lost ''both'' of her parents at a young age, implying that he passed away like Bernadette (though again, nothing is explicitly confirmed).
* AmbiguouslyGay: Due to the subtext she has with Akko:
** When she is stung by the Lovelove Bee, she confesses to Akko under its influence. As with the other victims of the bee's effects, there might be a grain of truth to her confession.
** She acts like a {{Tsundere}} to Akko in "Intellect and Sensibility" during their broom ride and [[http://imgur.com/a/kQsAE official art from staff members detailing the broom ride]] shows Diana blushing due to Akko hugging her.
** She doesn't pay mind to Thomas and Frank's slight affection for her, but never states it's because she's supposedly gay as well.
* AnimalMotif: The unicorn, which is what she summons in the Samhain Festival. The unicorn is also implied to be the Cavendish Family's house animal.
* AppealToTradition: While she isn't as biased towards it as Finnelan is (For one, she's opposed to the traditional witch parade in ''The Enchanted Parade'' and desires to get it cancelled entirely due to finding the parade to be offensive and humiliating to witches), Diana is a big proponent of preserving Luna Nova's traditions and rules as well as the traditional methods of studying magic, which is a constant source of conflict between her and Akko, who defies those traditions and rules on a daily basis. She is also keen on preserving and being true to her family's traditional values of kindness and affection.
* AscendedFangirl: Like Akko, she's a fan of Shiny Chariot, and towards the end of the series, Diana has gotten to wield the Shiny Rod a few times herself [[spoiler:most notably when she got to join Akko in unleashing the final Shiny Arc to save the world in the finale.]]
* BadassBookworm: She has intimate knowledge of every text Luna Nova uses, to the point of even correcting a teacher, and is capable of reading witch text that is quite beyond her years. In "Pact of the Dragon", she interprets a contract written up in the ancient Dragonese language, something no professor has been able to do for 1,000 years.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The blonde to Hannah's redhead and Barbara's brunette.
* BlueBlood: The Cavendish family are descendants of one of the Nine Olde Witches and have ties to the Hanbridges, another aristocratic family. Their family estate is also, by all appearances, a castle. Not only that but it has its own, smaller, Sorcerer's Stone.
* BlueIsCalm: She is TheStoic who is very aloof, calm and rational compared to the rest of her peers. Fittingly, she is also frequently associated with the color blue, as she has IcyBlueEyes and much of her attire is colored blue, including the ribbon on her school uniform.
* BlueOniRedOni: She's collected and rational, while Akko is passionate and reckless. They even happen to be often associated with colors matching these roles.
* BreakTheHaughty: A light example as Diana isn't overly mean or boastful, but she clearly thinks she knows best and that she can do whatever she wants. In the films, she tends to cause more problems than she solves, though.
* BritishStuffiness: Especially in the TV series. She's quite a serious, coolheaded young lady and seems to find the more boisterous characters (i.e. Akko, Amanda, etc.) annoying.
* BrokenAce: The TV series paints her as this. She is a highly respected, popular and skilled witch prodigy who can do things no other student can do, however, she is also an incredibly aloof, cold and distant person who [[spoiler: lost both her parents at a young age]], has a very bad relationship with her living relatives, and although skilled and passionate about her heritage, has lost almost all sight of why she fell in love with magic in the first place, thanks to being forced to grow up and having to live up to everyone's expectations of her at an young age. On top of all of that, much like Akko, she [[spoiler:also lost her magic at around the same time her mother passed, having to work it back up through years of hard work]], distancing herself from everyone else in the process. Fortunately she does start to slowly improve thanks to Akko.
* BrutalHonesty: Will state her opinion without mincing her words. Much to Akko's displeasure.
* BullyTurnedBuddy: While never exactly a "bully" in the TV series (at least, not to the extent of her teammates), she spends much of the first season antagonizing Akko for her love of Shiny Chariot and her general attitude towards magic. She would later become friends with Akko, however, after Akko saves her from Daryl's snakes and tries to help her stop Daryl in "Intellect and Sensibility".
* CatchAFallingStar: Stops Akko from falling to her death in both the first film and "Don't Stop Me Now". [[spoiler:Akko returns the favor in the finale.]]
* CharacterDevelopment: [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold She isn't the nicest to Akko at first]], but ends up being very good friends by "Intellect and Sensibility". Their friendship gets quite a bit bigger throughout "Yesterday" and "Changing at the Edge of the World" to the point that in "Changing at the Edge of the World", Diana cries at the thought of Akko dying.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: The films portrayed Diana as a more snobbish AcademicAlphaBitch who would go out of her way to insult Akko for her lack of talent. The TV series tones this down, instead portraying her more as TheStoic and borderline StealthMentor to Akko. Instead of being catty, Diana tends to lean more into the BrutalHonesty territory when criticizing Akko.
* TheChosenWannabe: Diana's mother encouraged her to find the Words of Arcturus so she could build a bright future for magic and the Cavendish family. Unfortunately for her, the Claiomh Solais/Shiny Rod, the key to unlocking the Words, chose Akko as its wielder. That being said, it's more than implied she actually is the chosen one to carry on the altruistic Cavendish legacy and is even acknowledged by family founder Beatrix Cavendish herself.
* ClosetGeek: For a witch who claims to ensure above such nonsense as Shiny Chariot and her magic shows, she ''does'' seem to possess a lot of knowledge about her. This is because she used to attend her shows when she was younger, going as far as taking international travel just to watch her idol.
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Seems to see herself like this when it comes to Akko and her friends. She doesn't specifically dislike the girls and their quirks, and in fact, often seems concerned about them and willing to bail them out of trouble, but is not shy about calling them dangerous, untalented idiots. [[JerkassHasAPoint She's kinda right]].
* ColorMotif: Blue. She wears a blue belt, her eyes are blue and whenever she wears anything that isn't her school outfit, it's mostly blue.
* CompassionateCritic: Although Diana tends to be harsh and cold when critiquing Akko in the TV series, and she has no qualms pointing out her flaws, it is mostly out of a desire to see Akko do better as a student and be less of a troublemaker.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Once she and Akko begin to get a better understanding of one another and grow closer, she starts smiling a lot more often and showing more genuine care towards Akko's well-being and development as a witch. Sucy even lampshades that "she's grown soft".
* DependingOnTheArtist: While her hair color is consistently platinum blonde and lime in the films and TV series proper, in both promotional and staff art, Diana's hair color tends to switch between being platinum blonde and lime green as in the films and series, or gold and light gold, such as her [[https://little-witch-academia.fandom.com/wiki/File:Diana_sheet.png artwork on the official site]].
* {{Determinator}}: One thing she definitely has in common with Akko is that she's an incredibly determined witch who is focused on completing her goals by all means necessary, often to the point of being stubborn. In fact, it was Diana's sheer determination and willingness to work and study hard that [[spoiler:led her to regain her magic and become TheAce after losing it at Chariot's show]].
* {{Deuteragonist}}: As the TV series continues, Diana's importance grows more and more, being only second to the protagonist Akko.
* DidntSeeThatComing: This, she argues, is the reason she finds Akko so interesting. Diana comes in, expecting things to go a certain way... and then Akko shows up and everything goes ''freakin' ballistic''.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Downplayed, yet something she has in common to Akko at times when it comes to her pride as a skilled student.
* DisappearedDad: More like non-existent dad. He is never seen or mentioned at any point, and we know that the family butler acted as a father figure for her.
* DisappointedInYou: In "Yesterday", [[spoiler:Diana tells Ursula that she is more disappointed in Ursula/Chariot for abandoning Akko in her time of need than when Ursula/Chariot stole her magic.]]
* EarlyBirdCameo: In both the first film and the TV series' first episode, during [[spoiler:Chariot's show, you can see her in the audience for a brief moment. This being anime, the one girl with green/blonde hair isn't too hard to spot.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Flawlessly answering a high-level question in class, which immediately establishes her as TheAce.
* EveryProperLadyShouldCurtsy: She does a self-aggrandizing one when she and her GirlPosse leave the cafeteria in the first film.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Although she is a major proponent of tradition and rules, she is completely against the traditional witch parade in ''The Enchanted Parade'' and desires to get it cancelled entirely, due to how degrading and humiliating it is towards witches.
* ExactWords: When she reads Akko's fortune in astrology class, she tells her that she's going to depart from the school. The class immediately assumes this means she'll be expelled, but it's actually inevitable no matter what happens. Even if she isn't expelled, the alternative is graduating which would also require leaving the school. [[spoiler:When Akko hits the DespairEventHorizon due to TheReveal about her idol -- who was her reason for attending Luna Nova -- Akko does leave the school and goes missing.]]
* FamilyHonor:
** The reason why she takes studying magic so seriously. She wants to uphold the dignity of the Witch race, especially her own, as she is a pureblood witch who can trace her family back since before the Norman Conquest.
** When push came to shove and at the moment she would adopt the family legacy by performing the ritual during the Venus Eclipse, Diana chooses to save her aunt and cousins instead, missing the opportunity. They might have tried to pilfer the family treasure and impede her from performing the ceremony, but ''they're her only living family'', and the Cavendish family legacy entails helping anyone in need, even enemies.
* {{Foil}}:
** To Akko -- While the former is a GenkiGirl with no prior experience in magic because she is a normal human girl and openly idolizes Shiny Chariot, Diana is a serious young lady who is TheAce in magic and comes from a 1500-year-old family of witches and claims to believe that Shiny Chariot was an insult to all witches. [[spoiler:She's actually a ClosetGeek of her]]
** The second season of the TV series even tries to imply both she and Akko are a foil to Croix and Chariot regarding the Shiny Rod. While Croix grew to dislike Chariot for the Shiny Rod choosing her over Croix, Diana, at least at first, was jealous of Akko inheriting it, until she came to the realization it was better off in Akko's hands than hers.
* AFriendInNeed: [[spoiler:She is the one who ultimately finds and helps Akko when Akko needs help most in "Yesterday".]]
* GenerationXerox: Diana and Akko's relationship, dynamic, and school performance heavily mirrors what Croix and Chariot once had in their Luna Nova days. For the final episode, both are even outfitted with the same white {{Custom Uniform}}s their predecessors often wore in the past.
* GoldenSuperMode: Shares this with Akko in "Changing at the Edge of the World" to defeat the Noir Rod after it turned into an ICBM. It's a rather similar finale [[Anime/KillLaKill to Studio Trigger's other big TV series]] back when the show was first aired.
* GoodIsNotNice: Diana is a genuinely good and helpful person who cares about her fellow classmates, but she is also a rather cold, haughty and stuck up AcademicAlphaBitch who isn't afraid to insult and/or berate others she considers to be lowly and/or unworthy (Such as Akko), particularly in the short films. While she did start like this in the series as well (albeit more downplayed by comparison), [[CharacterDevelopment she stops becoming this]] once she TookALevelInKindness after "Intellect and Sensibility".
* GreenEyedMonster: Diana admits to Akko in "Yesterday" that one of the reasons why she disliked Akko was out of envy over her open love of Chariot (as Diana couldn't express it due to the expectations placed on her) and being chosen by the Shiny Rod over her.
* GrudgingThankYou: When her family dispute is solved and they are on their way home, Diana murmurs a barely audible "Thank You" to Akko for coming after her. After a {{Beat}}, Akko screams in utter surprise and asks Diana to say it again, but she [[{{Tsundere}} refuses to repeat it]].
* HairColorDissonance: She has tea-green highlights in her platinum blonde hair.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Diana has platinum blonde hair and is shown to be a selfless, compassionate person in spite of her haughtiness.
* HairstyleInertia: She has the same wavy long hair with bangs swept to the left since she was a child.
* HereditaryHairstyle: Diana and her MissingMom both have wavy mid-back length platinum blonde hair with bangs swept to the left.
* HeroAntagonist: Was the closest thing to a reoccurring antagonist until [[BigBad Croix]]'s introduction. That said, while she is haughty, stuck up and cold, she is also a responsible, hard-working and goodhearted person who cares about the well-being of her fellow peers (including Akko, despite her dislike of her early on). She stops being portrayed as an antagonist entirely after she TookALevelInKindness in the later episodes of the series.
* HeroicLineage: Beatrix the Sage, one of the Nine Old Witches who founded Luna Nova and also the first Cavendish witch, thus making Diana her descendant.
* HiddenDepths:
** For someone who is so haughty and comes from a prominent family, Diana doesn't flaunt her status, nor does she join in on teasing and bullying Akko.[[note]]At least in the TV series; the film portrays her having no problem talking down to Akko for laughs.[[/note]]
** Diana tries to take responsibility for her mistakes and is frequently shown to be disappointed when she isn't able to tell people who actually achieved "her" accomplishments, i.e. saving the Jennifer Memorial Tree in "Papiliodia". When she can't tell someone the truth, she'll make up for it later on, as seen with her saving Akko from falling in "Don't Stop Me Now" and declaring her debt "repaid".
** If the mirror in "What You Will" is meant to show one's inner desires, then it's implied that Diana wishes she could be more laid-back and open with her emotions. This is outright confirmed in "Yesterday".
* IcyBlueEyes: Her blue eyes establish her as haughty and untouchable, especially in early episodes.
* IHatePastMe: It's eventually revealed that this is part of the reason why Diana initially disliked Akko so much. [[spoiler:Akko's love of Shiny Chariot and claims that just believing is enough to be a witch reminded Diana of herself as a child, who didn't have any respect for the hard work and commitment learning magic actually required.]]
* ImpoverishedPatrician: The Cavendish family's assets have been on a decline because Diana's [[EvilUncle evil aunt]], who is supposed to be the acting head, is busy selling off the family's artifacts to fund her lifestyle. That said, [[DownplayedTrope the family is still pretty well off in spite of the crisis]].
* InformedAttractiveness: She's alleged quite the beauty.
* InsufferableGenius: Diana is the top student at Luna Nova and a teen prodigy who knows things that even the teachers don't and will gladly remind you of such and assert her superiority over those she deems to be lowly, especially in the short films. This has been toned down in the TV series, but she still has her moments.
* {{Irony}}: In astrology class, Diana prophecies that Akko will end up leaving Luna Nova. Some episodes later, Diana herself departs from the school before Akko has a chance to, and she, in fact, goes after Diana in an effort to bring her back.
* JerkassHasAPoint:
** She is undeniably an AcademicAlphaBitch at times and her lectures toward Akko being a reckless and childish idiot who doesn't take magic and her studies seriously can come off as condescending, harsh and cold, but she isn't entirely wrong about the arguments and points she makes. Something that is occasionally acknowledged by the other characters.
** As dismissive as Diana is about Shiny Chariot and Akko's love of her, she is not wrong about her reputation, as Chariot's shows are indeed seen as making a mockery of magic amongst the magical community and Chariot having lost all of her former fame by the present day.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She often comes off as intimidating, proud, or cold and has no problems being a harsh and condescending jerk towards others, but in spite of her cold and haughty demeanor, she is a selfless and goodhearted person who cares deeply about her peers.
* TheLancer: [[spoiler:To Akko during the finale. She's the first one to voice her support of Akko's idea to stop the missile and flies the broom during the battle in the sky. She also takes down the missile together with Akko.]]
* LovableAlphaBitch: She's a {{Jerkass}} in the films, but her status as AlphaBitch seems to be more in Akko's perception of her in the TV series, as her GirlPosse fit the bill better than she herself does. She comes from a long line of master witches. As a result, she is a {{Perfectionist}} who acts stuck up, takes pride in being better than the other witches in training, has her own GirlPosse, and acts condescending to those she feels are unworthy of the title with cold disrespect. However, deep inside, she is really caring, wants what's best for the witches, and is a ClosetGeek like Akko. When she makes mistakes, she usually owns up to them and tries to take responsibility as opposed to Akko, who shrugs her mistakes off with a simple "It's not my fault". She also has gone out of her way to save Akko twice.
* LoveAtFirstSight: Quite literally and PlayedForLaughs in the TV series. She is stung by a bee that causes her to fall in love with the first person she sees, and the first thing she sees is Akko, and she immediately falls for her. When Diana is stung a second time, she sees a reflection of herself and falls in love with herself. She goes back to normal once the bee is killed.
* MeaningfulName: "Diana" is derived from an old Indo-European root meaning "heavenly, divine". ''This'' Diana comes from a famous family of witches and she is the resident [[TheAce Ace]] of Luna Nova.
* MirrorCharacter: She and Akko are actually quite similar, despite initial differences. Both have a "look before they leap" attitude, look up to Shiny Chariot, and attended Luna Nova because it was Shiny Chariot's school. They both also share the same passion and love for magic, though Diana does keep her feelings for it subdued. "Yesterday" goes into more detail. [[spoiler:Both had their magic stolen by the Dream Fuel Spirit and realized that their idol is not whom they perceived her to be.]]
* MysticalWhiteHair: She has platinum blonde hair and is a witch.
* {{Narcissist}}: Parodied when she gets stung by a [[LovePotion Lovelove Bee]] and then looks into a mirror, literally falling in love with her own reflection. Though, as with the other temporary magical infatuations, there's probably a grain of truth to it.
* NotSoAboveItAll:
** As much as she tends to berate Akko for being reckless and immature, there are occasions where she can be a bit reckless and/or immature herself. Case in point, her actions in the first short film, where she recklessly unleashes a dragon by accident.
** While she tends to uphold the rules as much as possible and tends to call out others for causing trouble, she can be a bit of a troublemaker herself on occasion, as one of the bonus chapters of the Keisuke Satō manga has her get into trouble by Finnelan alongside Akko and co after she participated in a race against them for a special dessert menu and teams up with Amanda to steal a prototype of the shooting star in ''Chamber of Time''.
* NotSoStoic: Diana usually appears [[BritishStuffiness very collected]], be it when she's displaying her magical knowledge or berating Akko for her shenanigans, but...
** When she tries to guilt trip the faerie workers to accepting their current standards of living and Akko calls her out as [[UpperClassTwit a condescending aristocrat who can't relate with others just struggling to get by]], she's seen ''shaking'' in anger. It's one of the few times something Akko says actually gets under Diana's skin and shuts down her lecturing.
** After she's had a little heart-to-heart with Akko about the Cavendish legacy and her own dreams, teary-eyed Akko grabs Diana's hand and tells her just how much she believes in Diana, while invading her personal space and while Diana looks very taken aback and unsure how to react to Akko's sudden encouragement.
* {{Ojou}}: She is from a 1500-year-old family of witches that both have a large influence in the magical world and access to knowledge even the faculty of Luna Nova does not know. She's very careful to live up to that noble heritage, in both behavior and achievement.
* TheOneThingIDontHateAboutYou: Prior to becoming friends with her, Diana couldn't stand Akko through the majority of the first year due to her childish and rebellious personality and a tendency to cause trouble, however even then, she admits to admiring Akko's sheer [[{{Determinator}} determination]].
* TheOnlyOne: [[spoiler:Her pursuit of magic stems from the fact that she's the only remaining member of her family that cares about the Cavendish family name and legacy. As such, her excelling at the practice is due to not only her own desires but also because ''she had to''. She began just like Akko did after watching the Shiny Chariot exhibition, only that she had to put her whims aside when her parents died, forcing her to grow up and adopt her characteristic personality]].
* ParentalAbandonment: [[spoiler:She lost her parents at a young age. Her mother likely to illness; her father unknown.]]
* PerpetualFrowner: Her default expression tends to be an angry or stoic frown in most situations, fitting her serious nature. She does occasionally smile, but rarely. She does begin to [[DefrostingIceQueen smile a bit more in the TV series once she begins to warm up to Akko]].
* PhenotypeStereotype: She's a blonde, blue-eyed British girl.
* PlantPerson: According to WordOfGod, her eventual fate when she passes on years from now. Like her ancestor, Beatrix, her powerful magical ability will cause her to turn into a tree. [[invoked]]
* PreppyName: The [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Cavendish Cavendish family]] is a real noble house in the UK.
* PrivilegedRival:
** Akko sees her as this. On top of being extremely talented, Diana is also the heiress to an old noble family. Diana herself mostly sees Akko as an UnknownRival.
** In the first film, she gets upset with Hannah and Barbara for being afraid in the dungeon, saying that because they are witches, ''they'' should be the ones instilling fear instead.
** This is the reason why she's so against the Witch Parade in both the traditional form and in Akko's "Happy Time Project". On one hand, they're upholding a tradition that's done nothing but demean witches for centuries. On the other hand, going all out on special effects and making witches marketable seems like they're putting on the equivalent to a minstrel show for muggle entertainment.
* ProperLady: She is TheStoic {{Ojou}} of an old noble family of witches, speaks politely, has proper manners, and proves to be WiseBeyondHerYears.
* TheProudElite: Diana is certainly very proud of her heritage and has the sophistication and mannerisms of an aristocrat, which, upon first impressions, make her seem cold and arrogant. As the series goes on, though, it's made clear that Diana is a very caring and kind individual who only acts cold and arrogant because a) she's the heir to an ancient house of witches (so she's expected to behave a certain way in public) and b) she feels that Akko doesn't truly appreciate magic as an art and lifestyle (which she is right about, to a degree).
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Diana is often shown to be ''very'' proud of her heritage.
* PublicHaterPrivateFan: Is this towards Chariot, trying to hide what a big fan she was of her as much as possible.
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
** [[spoiler:She gives a light one to Ursula/Chariot after she finds out that the latter left Akko's side when Akko needed her most.]]
** She tends to constantly give these to Akko due to her lack of talent, her common disregard for traditions and rules, her idolization of Shiny Chariot and her often naive and immature behavior. She stops this in the TV Series by the 2nd cour however as she becomes friends with her.
** She gets to be on the receiving end of one by Akko after she attempted to stop the strike by guilt tripping them in "New Age Magic", as the latter chastises the former for being a cold aristocrat who looks down on others and who is absolutely blind to the real suffering of others and that she'll never know what it's like because of her receiving privileges and good fortune for much of her life. Notably, the latter actually manages to get under the former's skin and [[NotSoStoic shatter her normal demeanor]].
* TheReliableOne: Given her talent and maturity, she is seen as a dependable person by her peers and teachers.
* TheRival: To Akko. Funnily enough, though, Akko is horribly outclassed by Diana. However, Diana actually likes that Akko is always challenging her, so she will go out of her way to antagonize her.
* SaveTheVillain: She could've gone on and done the ritual to become the head of her family. However, her aunt and cousins ended up trespassing on the ritual grounds while trying to stop her and would've been turned into trees as punishment. Despite their actions, Diana ultimately forgoes the ritual to save them. After all, she may not like them, but [[ThickerThanWater they are family]].
* SchoolIdol: Diana is the top student in Luna Nova and is widely adored by both the staff and most of the students for her reliability, her adherence to tradition, her high intellect and [[TheAce skill level]], on top of her status as a member of the prestigious Cavendish family. Akko even mentions that she has fan clubs in the light novel.
* SparklingStreamOfTears: As she's flying away from Luna Nova.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: As revealed in episode 5. Diana understands ancient dragon (which even the older professors don't understand) and has studied the language since she was 12. Because of this, she is able to translate the ancient dragon contract between Luna Nova and Fafnir, thwarting the latter's scheme in the process.
* StatuesqueStunner: Downplayed. Diana is a beautiful young lady, but she's not overly tall, standing at around 5'6". That said, she ''is'' the tallest amongst the blue, red, and green teams.
* StealthInsult: Played with. When Akko confronts her for leaving the Academy by arguing that she won't stand to lose her rival, Diana tells Akko that she never considered her a rival. Akko takes it as an insult, assuming that Diana means that she was beneath notice. Diana, in turn, reveals that she never sought to antagonize Akko and she doesn't consider their relationship a "rivalry".
* StrongFamilyResemblance: Diana and her mother have fair skin and platinum blonde hair with tea-green highlights.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Diana is haughty, prideful, and at times arrogant. However, she has a strong sense of duty and is concerned with Akko's safety.
* TalentedButTrained: While Diana is from a prestigious magic family and is an incredibly talented witch, it is revealed later on that much of her status as TheAce is the result of years of hard work and studying after [[spoiler:losing her magic as a child]] and even in the present day, she continues to work hard and study as much as she can.
* TeenGenius: She's capable of easily doing magic that more senior witches have difficulty with. The teachers of Luna Nova will actually consult her in magic and Akko at one point mentions that when it comes to learning magic Luna Nova has nothing to offer Diana.
* ThinkNothingOfIt: Her usual reaction whenever someone praises her or thanks her for helping is to brush off the compliments.
* TokenGoodTeammate:
** She's this amongst her team in the TV series (not so much in the films). While she is stuck up, aloof and cold and can be an {{Jerkass}} at times, she's the only member of her team to not bully and mock Akko and co like her teammates tend to do.
** To her family as well. While her aunt and cousins are willing to forgo tradition for their own selfish reasons and are quite snobbish, Diana is the exact opposite in both ways.
* TookALevelInBadass: Discussed. "Intellect and Sensibility" reveals that TheAce Diana, who is able to perform feats of extraordinarily difficult magic, was once unable to cast simple spells as a child. [[spoiler:With the reveal in "Things We Said Today" that Chariot was harvesting Dream Fuel Energy - and by extension severely handicapping her audience's ability to use magic - at her shows, which Diana was shown to have attended, Diana losing her magical abilities as a child is almost certainly tied to that event. In which case, her taking this level in badass was foreshadowing that what Chariot did isn't totally irreparable.]]
* TookALevelInKindness: While she remains a bit aloof and teasing, Diana becomes far kinder and supportive towards Akko after the events of "Intellect and Sensibility". This was lampshaded by Sucy in the episode after by stating that she's gone soft.
* {{Tritagonist}}: In addition to Akko's journey and Ursula's backstory, the main plot also allocates much focus on Diana's relationship with Akko and her own investigation on the Grand Triskellion, especially on the second course.
* TrueBlueFemininity: She's a ProperLady from a prestigious family of witches, has IcyBlueEyes and wears a Luna Nova uniform with a blue sash, blue-trimmed hat and shoes. In "Bee Affection", she wears a blue dress at Andrew's party.
* TrueCompanions: In spite of them appearing to be riding hear coattails, Hannah and Barbara consider her a dear friend and are visibly hurt by her leaving the academy.
* {{Tsundere}}: A platonic one for Akko ([[AmbiguouslyGay maybe]]) and her friends, as she comes off as condescending towards them but also sometimes shows concern and appreciation. Moments include:
** The climax of ''The Enchanted Parade'', when she cheers for them to beat the monster only to shut herself up quickly and blushes about it.
** Her specifically stopping by to tell them that they're still terrible witches, even if they can cast magical spells more powerful than hers. That might be as close to a "well done" as she can manage.
** She refuses to repeat her "Thank You" towards Akko when the latter can't believe she just heard Diana say that.
* TsurimeEyes: She has narrow, upwards arching eyes, signifying her noble upbringing, dignity and pride. [[spoiler:They occasionally shift to TaremeEyes when she softens up and grows closer to Akko, although they remain Tsurime most of the time.]]
* TheUnchosenOne: Slips into this role late in the series. After [[CharacterDevelopment coming to grips with the fact that she was NOT chosen to wield the Shiny Rod]], Diana takes it upon herself to help out [[TheChosenOne Akko]] in whatever way she can.
* UngratefulBastard: In the first film, neither she nor her teammates utter so much as a word of thanks to the red team for saving them from the minotaur, something that Akko points out irritably.
* UnknownRival: When Akko tries to talk Diana out of leaving Luna Nova on the basis she can't just lose her rival, Diana claims she never saw Akko as such. However, when her knowledge about the Words or Arcturus and the Triskelion is brought up right after, she tells Akko that restoring the golden era of magic is all up to her now, because despite everything Diana's discovered, achieved and wished for, in the end the Shiny Rod chose Akko, not her.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: With the best intentions (but [[PrideBeforeAFall no small amount of pride]]), Diana has a tendency to cause magical catastrophes before thinking carefully throughout the films and the anime series.
* UpperClassEquestrian: She is shown to partake in horse riding in "Cavendish".
* UsedToBeASweetKid: She used to be cheery and downright adorable as a child. Then she lost her mother...
* VitriolicBestBuds: Once most of Diana and Akko's animosity towards one another goes away and both girls admit how much they respect the other's strengths, their bickering becomes more playful.
* WhatYouAreInTheDark:
** She could have left her evil aunt and cousins for dead and become head of her house with no one but Akko being none the wiser, but doesn't hesitate to save them instead.
** A smaller moment happens in "Yesterday". After Diana tells Chariot that she has already figured out her identity, Chariot reveals to her what happened during [[spoiler:the magic show where she used Dream Fuel Spirit, a.k.a. the same magic show Diana went to all those years ago which drained her magic]]. Judging by her shock and distraught expression, Diana clearly has other questions in mind, but refocuses back on Akko and her whereabouts. Even though Diana has every right to ask Chariot about the consequences of that action, she puts Akko above her own curiosity.
* WhenSheSmiles: While not always stone faced, "Intellect and Sensibility" marks the first time we see her smile with positively child-like excitement. [[http://pa1.narvii.com/6602/cc8f5c6b113812ddb6cd9f709eb96c657d7002cb_00.gif It's a radiant look on her.]]
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Aside from some impulsive decisions and actions, she's definitely a lot more mature and calm compared to other characters her age, has knowledge that even advanced witches don't know, and can cast magic on the same level as her professors and more. [[spoiler:The death of her parents, being the only legitimate Cavendish heir, and having her magic crippled as a child most likely has a lot to do with this.]]
* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Diana fully supports Akko and moves her to continue the ideals that Shiny Chariot inspired them to live by.
* YouAreWhatYouHate: She surmises that her reason for leaving Luna Nova could have been at least partially because she wanted to gain distance between herself and Akko, because she couldn't stand how Akko was able to be so open and carefree about her idol and her dreams, while Diana had those same feelings but had to keep them hidden.

[[caption-width-right:250:Hannah (left) and Barbara (right).]]

Diana's roommates and GirlPosse. They're both snobbish jerks who tend to bully Akko for her non-magical heritage and general incompetence at magic and are generally meaner than Diana tends to be. That said, they are highly loyal to Diana and care about her greatly.
----
[[AC:Tropes that apply to both]]
* AdaptationalJerkass: While they were jerks in the films, they merely served as Diana's GirlPosse in them and simply reinforced her own bullying and not much else. In the TV series, however, they're much more active in bullying and antagonizing Akko than in the films and have even gotten into a physical fight with her at one point (which granted, Akko started, but it was their bullying that provoked her into starting it, so they're not exactly blameless for it either).
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: The duo remains straight-up jerks in the films. In contrast, while they are still jerks in the TV series, they do offer their sincere thanks toward Akko for successfully managing to bring Diana back to Luna Nova and [[spoiler:are shown hanging out with the others by the end of episode 25]].
* AssholeVictim: They were both on the receiving end of a physical beating from Akko in "Orange Submariner", though given their stuck up and mocking behavior towards her, including having tripped her prior to the fight, it's a little difficult to feel bad for them.
* BetaBitch: They are Diana's lackeys who actively antagonize Akko. They're actually a good deal nastier at it than Diana usually is. Particularly in the TV series.
* BlondeBrunetteRedhead: The brunette and redhead to Diana's blonde.
* BullyTurnedBuddy: The two start out as being snobbish bullies to Akko and friends, but by the epilogue, [[spoiler:they're shown to be hanging out with them on good terms, seemingly having become friends with them]].
* ButtMonkey: As often as they are bullies, fate turns them into this as well.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Downplayed. After the events of "Cavendish" and "Intellect and Sensibility", they appear to have stopped teasing Akko and sought her out to say "Thank You" for doing what they couldn't do - bring Diana back. It's still awkward because they can only muster blank looks while saying so, but they are trying at least. By the epilogue, [[spoiler:Barbara is reading a new ''Night Fall'' novel with Lotte, while Hannah is sharing sandwiches with Jasminka]].
* TheDividual: Outside of their appearances, they are largely identical, as they share the same personality and role, are never shown or introduced separately and are often treated as though they are one character. The TV series does slightly distinguish them a bit by making Barbara a ClosetGeek of ''Night Fall'' in contrast to Hannah, but outside of that, they largely remain identical.
* EnemyMine: In the Keisuke Satō manga, [[spoiler: Hannah and Barbara end up working with Lotte and Sucy, two people they're shown to dislike, in order to cure Diana of her illness.]]
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: The very first things they do upon in "Starting Over" is express displeasure towards the idea of a muggle joining Luna Nova and then mock Akko for her inability to fly and naivety upon meeting her, establishing them as haughty bullies.
* {{Fainting}}: They faint with shock twice in "Bee Affection" as first Andrew and then Diana profess love for Akko, not aware it's a [[LovePotion Lovelove Bee]].
* FanGirl: Hannah and Barbara are shown to be this to Diana, with the two frequently praising her and boasting to others about how wonderful and talented of a witch she is. They're also shown to be quite fond of Andrew as well as they've shown an attraction to him in "The Fountain".
* FantasticRacism: One of the reasons why they bully Akko in the TV series is due to her non-magical background, with both of them expressing the opinion that non-witches shouldn't be enrolled into Luna Nova.
* FoodAsBribe: In "New Age Magic", during the strike, they bribe a little fire fairy with a piece of wood so they can take a hot shower.
* GirlPosse: They follow Diana around like puppies and sing her praises at any given moment. However, they have nastier attitudes compared to their leader, and it is implied that they stick with Diana because they want to ride on the coattails of Luna Nova's star pupil, which was then subverted in episode 19, in which it's revealed that they're actually TrueCompanions.
* HeelFaceTurn: After spending nearly the entirety of the series as bullies, the epilogue has them [[spoiler:hanging out with Akko and friends, implying they're on good terms with them now]].
* {{Jerkass}}: They needlessly mock Akko and her friends, especially the former.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Downplayed. While they are stuck up jerks most of the time, they both care deeply about Diana and get very saddened when Diana leaves Luna Nova and after Akko brings her back, they actually thanked her for doing so (albeit reluctantly) and by the end, [[spoiler:the two are shown hanging out with the main group, implying they're on better terms with them]].
* LaserGuidedKarma: Their seesawing from bullying Akko to being the ButtMonkey tends to work on this.
* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: They both are, in a twofer:
** Hannah is named after a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hannah_England British Olympic runner]].
** Barbara is named after either [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Parker_(athlete) another English runner]] or [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Parker_(writer) an American mystery author]].
** And both together are named after Joseph Hanna and William Barbera, the founders of Creator/HannaBarbera.
* PseudoRomanticFriendship: Hannah and Barbara are ''always'' holding hands and clinging to each other. They also take a shower together in "New Age Magic" (even though the immediate reason for that was [[spoiler:the strike of the fairies]]).
* SatelliteCharacter: They are always seen with Diana in the films. The TV series gives a bit more characterization and time away from Diana, but they're still predominantly just Diana's followers.
* ShoutOutThemeNaming: Named after an [[Creator/HannaBarbera American animation studio and its two creators]].
* ThoseTwoGirls: They're always together and exist primarily to make fun of Akko and friends, secondarily as a {{foil}} to Diana.
* TookALevelInKindness: In the TV series. Like the films, the duo started off as snobbish, bullying jerks to Akko and her friends. After Akko convinces Diana to return to Luna Nova, they give the former a genuine and proper thanks. And by the epilogue, they're [[spoiler:hanging out with the main group]].
* TrueCompanions:
** For much of the series, it seemed like Hannah and Barbara were just riding on Diana's coattails, basking in the reflected glory. Come "Cavendish", they are ''devastated'' by Diana leaving, revealing they were this all along. Later, they both make a point of personally thanking Akko for bringing their dear friend back to Luna Nova. [[spoiler:At the end of the series, they are seen hanging around with the main character group, along with Diana.]]
** To further showcase how much they care for Diana, in the Keisuke Satō manga, when Diana [[spoiler: gets ill from immolation disease, both of them freaked out tremendously and to cure her, the two ultimately decide to go as far as to team up with Sucy and Lotte (two people they hated) in order to find the ingreidents needed to make the antidote]].
* UndyingLoyalty: Hannah and Barbara are both incredibly loyal to Diana and will do anything to ensure her well-being, the Keisuke Satō manga being probably the best example of their loyalty to her as [[spoiler: they're willing to work with [[EnemyMine Lotte and Sucy]] to ensure Diana gets cured of her illness]]

[[AC:Tropes that apply to Hannah]]
* AmbiguouslyBi: While Hannah showed attraction to Andrew when he first visited Luna Nova in "The Fountain", it's also revealed in ''[[VideoGame/LittleWitchAcademiaChamberOfTime Chamber of Time]]'' that she became attracted to Amanda when the latter [[WholesomeCrossdresser dressed up in the suit]] [[{{Foreshadowing}} that she would later wear in "Amanda O'Neill and the Holy Grail"]]. Hannah didn't know that it was Amanda at first until Akko told her. Hannah then tells Akko to keep quiet about this and that she would be keeping the picture of Amanda in the suit that Akko took for her. This is on top of her PseudoRomanticFriendship with Barbara.
* CuteLittleFangs: Hannah has notably sharper canines than the rest of the cast, aside from Sucy.
* NouveauRiche: [[invoked]] WordOfGod stated that Hannah and her family came into their wealth fairly recently, unlike Barbara and Diana, who are from OldMoney.
* PlayingWithFire: Hannah seems to like using this element for her spells.
* TsurimeEyes: She has sharper eyes to stare at others with arrogance.
* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Hannah wears a yellow ribbon to hold up her hair.

[[AC:Tropes that apply to Barbara]]
* ClosetGeek: Barbara is a fan of ''Night Fall'' but pretends to be otherwise when she and Hannah are at the ''Night Fall'' fan event.
* CurtainsMatchTheWindows: Barbara has blue hair and eyes.
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: There was practically no difference between her and Hannah in the films outside of their designs, with both fulfilling the same overall role as Diana's GirlPosse. In the series however, while she's still just as much of a stuck up bully as Hannah, she is shown to secretly be a fan of the ''Night Fall'' series, separating her a bit from Hannah, who is shown to dislike it.
* HiddenDepths: Barbara is secretly into ''Night Fall''; the same novel series Lotte enjoys reading. [[spoiler:By the TV series finale, both can be seen reading from the newest book together.]]
* ShockAndAwe: Barbara seems to like using this element for her spells.
* TaremeEyes: She has droopier eyes for looking down on others.

->''"I had a dream ever since I was a child. It was to become a witch who could make everyone smile. I had no doubt it would come true."''\\

One of the academy's professors, teaching Magical Astronomy/Astrology. In reality, she is the legendary witch known as Shiny Chariot, who inspired a young Akko into becoming a witch. While the regular world sees her as a grand witch, the magic world sees her as an insult to witchcraft and magic. She quickly becomes attached to Akko and becomes her mentor figure in order to guide her on her quest to become the witch of her dreams.

** She's also one to Akko. Both are hot-headed, boisterious and rebellious witches who use magic in unothordox ways and both share a vitriolic relationship with Diana early on. However, whereas Akko is an inexperienced witch who is passionate about magic, Amanda is a rather skilled witch who {{does not like magic}} due to her family. Furthermore, whereas Akko's troublemaking is mostly unintentional and despises the idea of leaving Luna Nova, Amanda intentionally causes trouble out of rebellion and desires to drop out due to not wanting to be confined by the school, only deciding to stick around due to her friendship with Akko.
