"Please can someone ask the anime team to bring them back"

Here's a wild idea: Why don't you ask them yourself?

And the series getting popular because of magic circles? Seriously? That's the most ridiculous claim I've read on this wiki in a long time.

What I hope for the most is that they keep magic cicles consistant, whether there are many or few. When the old anime sometimes had circles and sometimes didn't for the very same spell, it really pissed me off. Better to leave them out completely than this "maybe/maybe not" shit.

Also if adding magic circles means less time for other animation and thus less quality, I'll complement the animation team on concentrating on the important stuff.

And with the kinda organisatorial stuff out of the way, I finally get to how I think about the cicles themselves: I don't like it when every little magic trick has a circle. I prefer to have the magic circles for the really strong spells as a visual way to say "Okay, this is serious here. Prepare for something awesome!".
