Magic Spells are a magical action used by witches to perform magic. It is generally performed using a magic wand. Unless specifically mentioned by a character in some form of media, these names and the spells' classifications are unofficial.

Description

Spells are the primary mean by which witches carry out their magic. To be used, a spell requires basically two things: incantation and magical energy. If a witch pronounces the spell incorrectly, the wand does not channel magical energy and if they lack the necessary power to use it, the spell will fail.

While the simplest spells can be performed almost effortlessly, the more advanced spells require a higher level of skill and experience. The higher the user's level, the spells can be used at a higher level as well, as seen with Transformation spells, which can transform a target into a higher or lower stage.

After a witch has casted a spell a lot of times and has enough experience, spells can be used without verbal incantation.

List of magic spells

This is a list of magic spells used by the characters of Little Witch Academia.

Offensive Magic Spells

These magic spells are usually used for offensive maneuvers.

Nullification Spell

The Nullification Spell or Luna Lana (ルーナラーナ Rūnarāna?) is a Fusion Magic spell that can negate any kind of magic. It is an extremely complicated spell that requires absolute concentration and self-control among its users.

This spell was used in The Enchanted Parade by Diana and Professor Finnelan to get rid of the mushroom monster that Akko and Sucy accidentally created during the class. It is used again at the end of the film by Akko, Lotte and Sucy to defeat the giant.


Heat Blast Spell

The Heat Blast Spell is a magic spell which allow the caster to project a concentrated bolt of magic strong enough to destroy weak creatures and cripple a human in one blast. Although it was originally used for medical treatment like radiation therapy, the spell now mostly applied as a basic attack spell with the bolts can be used to stun, injure, or even evaporate a target if cast with enough power.

The spell's full destructive capability was shown in the first short film as demonstrated by Diana who evaporated an insectoid monster with a single blast while exploring Luna Nova Magical Academy's dungeon located beneath the New Moon Tower.

Akko hit with the spell.

In "Pappiliodya", Diana projected weaker bolts with this spell to destroy several Pappiliodya cocoons she confused with parasites and unintentionally injured Akko with it in process when the Japanese tried to tell her the cocoons' true nature. In "The Road to Arcturus" on the other hand, Diana and Akko uses this spell through the Shiny Rod to attack Croix's out of control Noir Dragon.


Leg Strengthening Spell

The Leg Strengthening Spell is a Body Strengthening Magic spell that infuses magic energy into the user's legs, allowing them to increase the power of their kicks to superhuman levels.

Explosion Spell

The Explosion Spell is a spell that concentrates a large amount of magical energy before expels it in a big explosion within a medium to wide radius around the caster. Very effective to either push the enemies away from the caster or freeing oneself from restraints.

In both "Wagandea" and "Chariot and Croix", Ursula uses this spell to free herself from Croix's Pixel Monster that devoured her.

Magical Barrier Spell is a spell that creates a powerful barrier of magic energy around the user as a means of protection against attacks, be it physical, magical, or even gas attacks. The strength and duration of the barrier is dependent on the skill of its caster as well as amount of magic energy used to sustain it.

In Little Witch Academia, this spell was used by Diana to protect herself, Hannah and Barbara from the Minotaur. It was also used by Sucy to shield herself from the Ancient Dragon. This spell was used again in The Enchanted Parade by Diana and Professor Finnelan to protect themselves from the poison of the mushroom monster that Akko and Sucy accidentally created during the class.

In "Samhain Magic", this spell was used by Dorlin to avoid the residue of the explosion caused by the potion of some students during the Samhain Festival.

In "Blytonbury's Undead Travelogue", Akko tries to use this spell to repair the tombstones that she and Lotte had collapsed. However, by accidentally mixing the powder with Sucy's Grave Mushroom, the spell ends up reviving the corpse of a dead man. At the end of the episode, Akko uses the spell again in the bell of the bell tower whose clapper had been removed to make the stick of the principal Holbrooke.

Time Magic

While Time Magic is mostly labelled as a forbidden magic due to potential danger it pose, the use of two of its spells, Time Delaying Spell and Rewind Spell, still considered legal since both are low-tier spells that inflict little to no damage and even doubles as Restoration Magic.

Examples include "Night Fall", when Sucy and Lotte take off from the food delivery truck, in "Luna Nova and the White Dragon" when Amanda flies up to the Luna Nova Tower, and "Blue Moon" when Diana goes up to the Luna Nova Archives.

Should a magic user's ability to use magic severely handicapped (be it either effect of Dream Fuel Spirit or Wagandea Pollen), their access to this spell would be negatively affected. In fact, due to Dream Fuel Spirit used by Chariot under Croix's suggestion, Akko cannot use this spell until her recovering cannot use this spell until her recovering magic become strong enough to access it where she finally does in "Tree of Leaves". Ursula aka. Chariot on the other hand, sacrificed her ability to fly while protecting Akko from exposure to Wagandea Pollen.

In "What You Will", some students ask "Diana" (who is actually Akko transformed into Diana by Woodward with one of the magic mirrors) to help them change the pose of the Great Witch Jennifer statue for the Samhain Festival. Akko tries to use this spell to animate the statue but is unable to even pronounce it correctly. In that, Diana arrives and uses the spell to change the pose of the statue.
