Studio Trigger's critically acclaimed fantasy short film <strong>Little Witch Academia</strong> and its follow-up <strong>Little Witch Academia: The Enchanted Parade</strong> were both added to the growing line-up of anime titles available on the premium streaming service Netflix earlier today.

Directed by Yoh Yoshinari (<em>Gurren Lagann Parallel Works</em>) and written by Masahiko Otsuka (<em>When Supernatural Battles Became Commonplace</em>), the two charming short films follow Akko Kagari, a student at the Luna Nova Magical Academy for young witches. Following the success of the first short, a Kickstarter was launched to partially fund production of a sequel; where its initial goal of $150,000 was met in a mere five hours.

Additionally, the service has also seen the addition of Aniplex and ufotable's <strong>Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works</strong> televsion anime, which was broadcast in Japan earlier this year. An adaptation of the best-selling visual novel set ten years following the events of renowned prequel <em>Fate/Zero</em>, the vsual treat tells the story of Shirou Emiya, a young man with little magical talent who finds himself caught in the middle of the Fifth Holy Grail War, a ceremonial battle royale between heroic figures from across history and the mages who summoned them.

MVM Entertainment will be releasing <em>Fate/stay night: Unlimited Blade Works</em> on DVD and Blu-ray in the United Kingdom; with the first volume currently scheduled for 21st March 2016.
