Ep. 6: The Fountain
After magic numerology class, Akko is forced to practice metamorphosis magic in her room. Meanwhile, Luna Nova hosts a welcoming party for Earl Paul Hanbridge and his son Viscount Andrew Hanbridge, who is formally acquainted with Diana. After giving herself rabbit ears during her practice, Akko decides to search for the Fountain of Polaris, believing it can grant her great power. Akko soon comes across Andrew, who expresses a strong disinterest in magic, and she inadvertently gives him rat ears and a tail. As Akko and Andrew arrive at the entrance to the Fountain of Polaris, they are chased by its guardian, a giant polar bear named Arcas. They are able to evade Arcas with the unseen aid of Ursula. Approaching the fountain, Akko is shown a vision of a young Shiny Chariot, who was unable to receive the fountain's power until she proved herself to be a capable witch through her own effort. Helping Akko to realize that acknowledgement is something that must be earned, Ursula encourages Akko to become stronger and restores Andrew, who promises to keep their encounter a secret. Upon departing from Luna Nova, Paul confides in Andrew that he is planning to shut it down.
