Magic Character animation not looping

Hello, I'm brand new to Serenes Forest! I've been coming across a problem with scripting (could be something else too, lol). My custom animation is magic-based and uses the classic looping cape. The animation does not loop properly using the L command and instead goes through the frames and stays on one frame after the spell loads, looking like the character is frozen in place. This is strange, because I have had the looping work fine before when I was using the regular hit codes instead of the spell related one (C05) to test with physical weapons.

Note that this animation does not use the same amount of frames as mage animations or anything like that. I've tried inserting it over the female mage to test and also tried inserting it over one of the custom battle sprite slots (such as Lucius), thinking it might have to do with the hard-coded looping in FE7. Both do not loop correctly. If you need more information, I can post the entire script. Thank you in advance for any help!

This is how the script currently looks for the basic attack:

(EDIT: Never mind, it just randomly worked after I retested it with the regular hit combo of C04+C1A+C1F, which looped, then C05+C1A, which worked again to make sure I wasn't crazy. I finally cut it back to just C05 and all of a sudden it worked for only the spell O_o. I have no idea how, I guess animation insertion is a strange beast sometimes.)
