| Just a fantastic episode, I love this series so much! |
| We're in episode three but what's the point of all this? The only thing that I can see is that Ursula acts really suspicious, like she were the witch that Akko idolatrous. |
 |
| finally i got to see more Amanda ! |

| Broom for next Mario Kart please |
| Akko's reactions were priceless! Funniest episode yet and the animation was superb. |
| Wow Chumlee got a shop of his own, i'm impressed xD. |
| Lol, that announcer was racist as hell. Diana seems to be not so bitchy after all. Sucy is turning out to be best girl. |
 |
| This was a spectacular episode! I'm really enjoying this show, and I think it's going to be the best of the season. Possibly of the year if this amount of quality stays. |
 |
| Best episode yet! It was both funny and exciting. Ursula seems to not really believe in her own word anymore. Something clearly happened to change her outlook on things. I'm very much looking forward to her story. While hilarious, it's also sad to see Akko still struggling with magic. Hopefully that scene at the end sort of awoke Akko's flying ability. Seeing her fly on the Shooting Star was pretty damn funny. Second best girl, Amanda is here! I'm hoping the other trio get a good amount of screen time this season. This was a great start for them. Still waiting on that Sucy episode! Very nice catch! Hilarious they put him in there. |

| How could I know it if I didn't watch it |
 |
| I really love this anime , and I really liked the last two episodes and this episode is good too but I think Akko is little too hyperactive and loud maybe they need to tone her down a little, and maybe let her speaking little less about Chariot.Sorry but that what I honestly think. |

| Yet another exiting episode. I'm glad Akko came in second. Having that wild broom seems a bit like cheating. It was also cool that Amanda got the dreaded Red Card. |
| Solid episode, was it ever actually confirmed if her mentor is actually charliot? |
|
| loved this episode. 100% certain that broomstick is going to be coming back to akko on its own one day! |
| What a great Quidich errr Broom Relay. Hope Akko gets that Legendary Broom. |
| This is getting even better, i enjoyed this episode so much. I thought that Akko won :/ But next time!!! She sure will. That broom is crazy xD but i think she liked Akko so maybe they will stay together ;) Akko always puts so much effort in everything (that she likes xD), it's impossible to not love her :3 I really can't wait for more episodes,a 10/10 anime. |
"There is no such thing as an Anime elitist. You watch Anime, therefore, you are trash by society's standards." |
| I was expecting that the Broom will choose Akko only because is different/special from the others, but I was wrong. By the way, nice episode. |
| I enjoyed this one more than last week's episode. It was really fun, and had some genuine laugh-out-loud moments. |
| I wanna ride on a broomstick, too -______- |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| Fantastic episode! Loving every moment of this. |
 |
| Atsuko is insane! I love it :D |
| I honestly thought this was a pretty weak episode at first. It's part of its charm. But Akko just constantly struggling and making no progress in flying her broom is so irritating to me. Still the ending was a lot of fun. Especially the legendary broom. Even if the pacing of the race was kind of weird and not very well explained. On a positive note, I'm glad they're already softening Diana's character. I thought we'd already seen her humbling character arc in the OVAs. It might be annoying if they dragged it out for awhile in the show. But doesn't seem like they are. Also it was cool they already brought back the three girls from the second OVA. |
 |
| Really happy that they put in Akko not being able to fly a broom from the original and make it an entirely different thing. I was afraid they might rehash old stuff like they did with Shiny Chariot's little show. 5/5- This series is so entertaining in a variety of ways. The childish comedy is done very well where other series that attempt something like that and falls flat on its face. With this, it works so well with the characters and their personalities. Major kudos to the writers with this episode as well. They put a lot of false hope into my mind, making me believe as hard as Akko did that she was going to learn how to fly, win the race and get her picture featured like her idol, Shiny Chariot. Then when that legendary broom went out of control, I sat there believing that the broom was going to help Akko win. Though she was very close to winning, it was not meant to be. I was really pleased with the build up and results. It made me REALLY want Akko to win and root for her after all she's been through in this episode. Hopefully this pays off later, that Akko does something so incredible that earns the respect of everyone, which is where I think this series is going. When that happens, it's going to be so satisfying to see. Also, Sucy is the greatest witch ever. |
 |
| Akko is running on pure luck, both good and bad luck. She can't fly a broom but wants to take part in the broom relay race anyway and have her picture next to Chariot's. Really not liking those two Diana lackeys and that's the point with them. Akko is the kind of character I really want to root for. She's so cute and so determined in many ways that she's willing to grab onto the wild metal broom too because it's a chance to fly. She put herself through Sucy's uselessly harsh training too to try and fly, though that kinda makes her a bit too gullible but I don't mind that much. But I really like her character as whole and I really want to see her become the kind of witch she wants to. Ursula interests me since she's so supportive of Akko and she seems to know something about the rod. She isn't Chariot herself though, because that would be too much. Was/is she her friend? Or is she also a big fan of Chariot? Pretty good episode overall. Liked those Trigger visuals. Neat stuff. |
| I haven't been hilariously entertained and actually chuckled at an anime for a while, until this episode. Let's see if Trigger can really save anime this time. |
| allo |
| That broom is gonna come back during the finale or something, when Akko is in a pinch. I just know it. It was good to see the second OVA girls make their appearance too. |

| It's been so long since I watched a good anime and wait with enthusiasm the next episode an entire week. I mean, this anime may change the industry (just like EVA, or Suzumiya Haruhi) in some way. It's anime, but don't feels like anime, but still anime, and I like this anime. There is no fanservice, typical japanese moe attitude, but it's moe in a way, I'm always smiling like an idiot. No over-sentimentalism like some favorites (SAO, Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso, and other shit). It has a lot of energy and dynamism. REALLY looking for forward to more. I hope and Ursula doesn't happen to be Chariot, maybe it's her sister, since they share the same eyelashes (I don't want it to be predictable). Just my opinion. |
| More and more similarity to Harry Potter: - Dark skinned commentator (Too bad she wasn't against some people, like Lee Jordan was in books/games at Slytherin :) ) - Super fast and special broom (At least Akko will need to tame it first) |
| Probably my favourite episode ever lol I don't know what will happen next but I highly doubt it will be funny as this one xD |
| Welp, at least it made much more sense than Quidditch. I just loved how Akko went on a little traning spree, JUST so she can learn to fly her broom. And I see they managed to fit the troublemaker trio into this episode too, which gave the first sign that this series is going to be very different from the movie. Also when Sucy said "No way", I just hope that the English dub changes this to "Get Out". It adds more flare to it. And I just noticed this now, but in the poster, Akko is shown with the Shooting Star, so we can expect it to come back at one point, in time I think (months? years? Eons?) And slowly, we are inching towards the connection between Ursula and Chariot. Overall, one of my favourite episodes this season. |
ONWARDS! Away from homework and on to more anime!!! |
| This show has been everything I hoped it would be so far! I really like how Diana has been getting a lot more character development than she did in the OVAs. In the OVAs she came off as a flat out bitch; however, so far she seems like she has a lot of expectation thrown on her, not necessarily of her own choosing. She holds Akko to high standards which can be off-putting but you know she wants to preserve the integrity of the school. I'm extremely excited to see where her character goes from here on. Love this show! |
 |
| This episode was so funny & awesome xD |
| Loved it! I was expecting Diana to be more stuck up however the anime is taking a great rout. Was nice of her to help her back up, wish Akko would of won though :C |
 |
| Dissapointed it wasn't quidditch jk... |
| Woah! Did anyone else realize that the ED was updated to show the aftermath of the events of this episode!? New scenes include: - Shooting Star flying free. - The two girls from Diana's team opening the "prize" from the race. - Akko, Sucy and Lotte having tea at the cafe with not-Chumlee. Amazing_Stoner said: Episode was really fun. But where in the hell did she get that cannon from? The cannon was the same one that Sucy used to train Akko. akiba-kei said: I mean, this anime may change the industry (just like EVA, or Suzumiya Haruhi) in some way.

No over-sentimentalism like some favorites (SAO, Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso, and other shit). It has a lot of energy and dynamism. Woah there, let's not get ahead of ourselves. LWA is amazing, but it's not a phenomenon like Evangelion or Haruhi. Those were anime that defined a generation and were made at just the right time to capitalize on the social context of the era. The earnest simplicity of LWA is great, but it doesn't have the "over-sentimentalism" to drive anything. akiba-kei said: I hope and Ursula doesn't happen to be Chariot, maybe it's her sister, since they share the same eyelashes (I don't want it to be predictable). Just my opinion. Er, that would be horrible. The current dynamic between Ursula and Akko is made possible because of Ursula's (supposed) identity. A fake-out would just undermine everything. I'm really don't get why so many Western fans think that predictable =/= bad. |
| Man Akko's passion and drive is so fucking admirable. Also the black witches are top tier. I also like how this anime has really humanized Diana. She ahs a good heart and is passionate about getting better as a witch. |
| I got a Masters degree. I don't have to worry bout school anymore. |
