New Moon Tower

Little Witch Academia Chronicles, Chapter 4, page 130 is a tower that serves as one of Luna Nova's notable landmarks, being where its very own Sorcerer's Stone provides the academy and its surroundings with Magical Energy for its daily activities.
==Description==
New Moon Tower is a tall, ornate tower specifically built in order for Luna Nova's Sorcerer's Stone to be able to properly distribute refined magic energy extracted from Ley Lines all over the academy and beyond within its intended effective range (3-mile radius). It also has several platforms where a magic user may take off with their broom and a spiraling staircase through which one can access upper floors as well as a labyrinth-like dungeon beneath the academy.Little Witch Academia (film)Little Witch Academia Chronicles, Chapter 4, page 115
Following the construction of Croix Meridies's own laboratory situated somewhere between the ground floor and Sorcerer's Stone hall, several sentinel statues are positioned along the staircase to dispatch intruders. Statues in question are designed after Roman soldiers of the old who wielded either bows and arrows or a sword and were capable of projecting destructive beams from their eyes, a mythological chimera, and a giant tarantula. Many of them appear as carved reliefs which allow them to catch intruders by surprise.Little Witch Academia Chronicles, Chapter 2, page 49
===Sorcerer's Stone Hall===
A huge chamber on which the Sorcerer's Stone rested. It is located on the topmost floor of the Tower.
===Underground Dungeons Hall===
Located on the basement floor of the Tower, this hall leads to the massive entrance of the labyrinth-like dungeons beneath Luna Nova. The dungeons in question are very ancient, with many secrets and ancient relics to find. Coupled with the presence of hostile creatures within, it serves as a perfect environment for students to gain hands-on field experience while under the proper supervision of the professors involved. Still, care must be taken as some of the aforementioned creatures are stronger than the rest, and some artifacts are extremely dangerous (ex. a specialized iron maiden that imprisoned a lone Briton Red Dragon).

===Short Films===
====Little Witch Academia (film)====
Under Ursula's supervision, Akko and her fellow students explore New Moon Tower's underground dungeons as part of the test to see how well they fare in the field for the first time. The French professor warns them that they must be careful since the dungeons are infested with monsters as part of the challenge. The test goes horribly wrong when Diana releases Ancient Dragon from its iron maiden-like prison because she mistook it as a cleverly disguised treasure stash. Fortunately, this coincides with Akko recovering Shiny Rod and subsequently using its latent powers to save the day.
====Little Witch Academia: The Enchanted Parade====
To get around the lack of magic source in Blytonbury thus hindering Luna Nova's part in the upcoming parade, Akko has Amanda bringing her to Sorcerer's Stone Hall. There, the Japanese witch-in-training has Shiny Rod siphoning some of the energy within New Moon Tower's Sorcerer's Stone more than enough for the parade at the town.
===TV Series===
====Don't Stop Me Now====
During the 1333rd Luna Nova Cup, third flyers, among them Diana, Akko, and Amanda, are positioned at the New Moon Tower. They manage to proceed once their respective previous flyer reaches them. Out of the group, Akko is having a head start thanks to improvisations Sucy prepared coupled with Amanda having a hard time in taming Shooting Star she stole from Last Wednesday Society prior.
====Luna Nova and the White Dragon====
Akko and Amanda are tasked with cleaning up New Moon Tower as the detention for their troubles during Lukić's class. It is when they witnessed wyvern-like creatures stealing the Sorcerer's Stone placed in the tower, unaware that Fafnir sent them in response to Luna Nova seemingly failing to fulfill its debt.
====New Age Magic====
During faery laborers' strike, they place metal dampeners to cut off Luna Nova staff's magic energy supply. The dampeners are eventually removed once Croix Meridies, the new teacher at Luna Nova, mediates the conflict with less-than-orthodox solutions that make it possible for them to fulfill the faery laborer's demands. Following this, a laboratory is established as an adequate workspace for Croix to work on her magitronics.
====Chariot of Fire====
Croix invites Akko into her lab within New Moon Tower in order to scan Shiny Rod and hopefully discover clues to Shiny Chariot's whereabouts. Upon learning this from Lotte, Ursula wastes no time to save Akko.
====Sky War Stanship====
Ursula confronts Croix for the chaos she orchestrated at the final round of 2017 Wild Hunt which took place on the outskirts of Blytonbury. Undaunted, Croix promises that she'll see her endgame soon and that there will be nothing she can do to stop it.
====Chariot and Croix====
The growing amount of anger-based Noir Fuel Spirit transferred from those who use Emotion Refresh to New Moon Tower doesn't go unnoticed by everyone at Luna Nova. After informing Akko about Andrew, Diana informs Ursula about the situation and inquires her about the possible connection with Croix. However, Ursula abruptly leaves and, to her confusion, leaves her magic broom behind, correctly deducing she had been exposed to Wagandea pollen prior.
====Yesterday and The Road to Arcturus====
Resolved to kill Croix as she'd rather end her than allow her former best friend to follow her path of darkness and entrusted Diana to taking care of Akko so they would be spared from seeing their idol becoming a murderer (in addition to tricking her to use Dream Fuel Spirit back during her fateful show at Japan, Croix had escalated the tension between England and its rival nation which already worsened since their recent controversial soccer verdict all as part of her plan to unseal Grand Triskellion and couldn't care less if doing so would spark off an all-out war between the countries), Ursula sets out to confront the latter at her lab. There, she is finally introduced to Noir Rod, an enormous replica of Shiny Rod powered by anger-based Fuel Spirit drawn from people's unrest in the light of the debate over the result of the latest soccer game between England and its rival nation. The two battle with Holbrooke and Finnelan unexpectedly joining the fray, having suspected something off regarding the Modern Magic Professor's actual purpose in Luna Nova.
Just then, the amount of anger-based Fuel Spirit charging Noir Rod spikes, leading to its abrupt activation. Now that she can proceed with her plan, Croix has the magitronic device shutting down the Ley Lines surrounding Luna Nova, robbing Holbrooke and Finnelan of their access to the area's magic energy. As she teleports to Arcturus Forest with it, Ursula manages to touch Noir Rod at the last moment, bringing her with them in the process.

===Space Patrol Luluco===
The tower appears in "The Trap of the Mystical Power" where Luluco and co.'s search for Ogikubo brought them there. Assuming it was hidden somewhere in the tower, Luluco learns that the energy signature of the magic energy generated by New Moon Tower's Sorcerer's Stone was identical to Ogikubo's own. This unfortunately leads to Luluco in trouble with Sucy who force-feeds her with mushrooms that will likely kill her 60 years after their poisons are introduced into her systems.
