Stanbot

The Stanbot is a robotic helper created by Constanze as her assistants.
==Description==
===Appearance===
In its active form, Stanbot is a mechanical robot with a large head that looks like Sega Saturn with grey and blue patterns, a small cuboid body, and two arms and legs. Stanbot's legs and arms can be tucked in whenever it shifts to its box configuration. Aside from box configuration, it can also transform into a magic gun that resembles a shotgun (Walther MPL in short films), a RPG, and an electric oven. Latter configurations are accessible manually however.
===Abilities===
These robots are capable of performing various tasks given by Constanze as well as to express herself, usually by having one or multiple of them speaking for her behalf. They are also programmed to have sentience and intelligence of their own, allowing them to work independently.
Stanbots can also be manually reconfigured into a gun mode to be used as a weapon. In this configuration, Stanbot uses magic energy as ammunition, though it has "unlimited ammo" when a magic source is around. As shown in Chamber of Time game, Stanbot's gun mode can also project a destructive laser beam as an attack called Laser Blast.
==History==
===Background===
Stanbots are among the magic-mechanical projects that Constanze worked on since her enrollment at Luna Nova developed as her robot helpers whilst remaining undetected by teachers. Until the events of either TV Series (specifically during Chamber of Time that set between Orange Submariner and Sleeping Sucy) or Enchanted Parade, Stanbots initially lacked their ability to assume their autonomous robot forms.
===TV Series===
====Luna Nova and the White Dragon====
Constanze has begun working on at least one stanbot sometimes prior to or during the events of this episode. Although the stanbot is yet to possess its robot configuration, its weapon (shotgun and RPG) and electrical oven configurations has been installed with the former being used in great effect against Fafnir's Robot Dragons.
====Sky War Stanship====
Akko accidentally destroys one of the Stanbots when he was loading the things of Constanze. Later, it is revealed that Constanze has several copies of them, which tell Akko to leave and stop bothering Constanze. Later, everyone helps Akko and Constanze to build the Stanship and they find Akko's design for the Grand Charion absurd although Constanze manages to implement it. Finally, they appear dismissing the Stanship when this part to Wild Hunt.
===Little Witch Academia: Chamber of Time===
By the events of the game, Constanze has managed to complete at least 3 fully functional Stanbots. She brings two of them with her whenever she explores regions accessible through the use of Magic Keys on Sealed Door of Horologium Chamber.

==Trivia==
* The design of Stanbot's magic gun configuration in the anime seems to shares significant similarities to the Kel-Tec KSG. Out of all the guns in the Shotgun family, the KSG has the closest and nearly identical design to the aforementioned firearm. These similarities become especially apparent when Constanze uses it during "Luna Nova and the White Dragon".
** In Enchanted Parade on the other hand, the firearm configuration is based on Walther MP instead.
*Regardless, similarities between aforementioned weapons and Stanship's magic gun configuration might be intentional in Constanze's part, having studied principles behind how the former work and implemented it into the latter. The same apllied to Stanbot's rocket launcher configuration she attempted to use against Fafnir's robot dragons which certainly based on rocket-propelled grenade in "Luna Nova and the White Dragon".
**It can also be argued that Conatanze managed to afford weapons in question, as she owns a MP5K submachine gun to threaten Akko with in "Sky War Stanship".
*Although Stanbot's head seemingly based on the real-life Nintendo 64 or GameCube as stated previously, the design of its legs which can be reconfigured into video game controller is influenced by NES-101 instead judging from the shape of its buttons.
