Definitely looking forwards to the rest of the series. Lots of honest laughs and a lot of cute moments. Pretty much everything I was expecting it to be.

Agreed. When she was putting down Shiny Chariot, for example, it seemed more like she was just being matter-of-fact about it, like "She's not respected here anymore" rather than "Haw haw, your heroine sucks!" I'm preferring the change so far. Akko is slightly less overbearing than in the 2nd OVA too.

Lotte and Sucy are basically the same, which is good. Why mess with perfection?

Yeah, they're all changes for the better. Diana is confident and self-assured but she isn't smug about it. Akko's still energetic and brave (and clumsy), but she's less bullheadedly stubborn than in the first two OVAs.

Ahh, I just watched it. Somehow I feel like I rediscover the magic of animation every time I watch this show. It purifies my heart!

That's what I like the most about the series. It really is just the pure joy of animation. I was laughing all the way through the last third because of how well-drawn and executed the physical comedy was. It's staggeringly rare to find a show these days that makes me feel plain good watching it.

Diana being the reluctant rival is such a great change in characterization.
