Witch Hat Atelier (Japanese: とんがり帽子のアトリエ, Hepburn: Tongari Bōshi no Atorie) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kamome Shirahama. It has been serialized in Kodansha's seinen manga magazine Monthly Morning Two since July 2016, with its chapters collected into twelve tankōbon volumes as of June 2023. The series follows a girl named Coco, who dreams of being a witch, but in her world only those born with magical abilities are able to become witches. However, after meeting a witch named Qifrey, Coco's dream begins to come true.

An anime adaptation has been announced. A spin-off series, Witch Hat Atelier Kitchen, started in Monthly Morning Two in November 2019.

By October 2022, Witch Hat Atelier had over 4.5 million copies in circulation. In 2020, the series won the Harvey Award for the Best Manga category as well as the Eisner Award for Best U.S. Edition of International Material—Asia.

Plot

Coco is a kind and daydreaming daughter of a dressmaker who aspires to become a witch; however because only innate magical users can practice and use magic, she has to give up on her dream. One day she meets a male witch named Qifrey and after she witnesses how he uses magic (by drawing magical runes and using magical ink), Coco accidentally casts a spell that turns her mother to stone.

As Coco does not know which magic spell she cast and Qifrey is tracking the sinister coven that could be behind the incident, he takes Coco as his apprentice in order to undo the spell and allow her to fulfill her dream. As it is gradually revealed, the coven in question—the Brimmed Caps—have taken an extraordinary interest in Coco, hoping that she will help them revive the free use of magic, which was outlawed because of the atrocities committed with it in past times, with some of their repercussions still enduring in Coco's world. Because rune magic can be effectively made by everyone, the Assembly carefully watches over any abuse of it, even going as so far as to erase the memories of any uninitiated (called "Outsiders") when they discover this secret. Thus, as Coco immerses herself into this new, wondrous world, a sinister plot begins to thicken around her.

Characters

Qifrey's Atelier

Coco (ココ, Koko)
A bright, green-haired, optimistic young half-orphan and dressmaker's daughter who dreams of becoming a witch, and sees her wish fulfilled at the horrid cost of her mother getting turned to stone. Subsequently, she is taken in by Qifrey and, instead of having her memory erased, is allowed to learn the ways of rune magic, which gains her a dubious reputation in the magic community. While initially clumsy and naive, she is very enthusiastic about learning all she can about magic, and with her background as an Outsider, she is able to conceive highly creative ways of using her new-found knowledge.
Qifrey (キーフリー, Kīfurī)
A reclusive witch and magic teacher specializing in water magic. His atelier is a haven for child witches who are considered outcasts because they did not—or refused to—fit into the rigid structures of the old established schools. While it is partly out of kindness that he takes Coco in, he has also taken note of the Brimmed Caps' designs on her. In fact, he holds a very personal grudge against the Brimmed Caps ever since his childhood, where they used him in a fell ritual that took away his right eye (which he now keeps covered by his hair) and the memory of his former life. As a result of their attempts to prevent him from tracking his tormentors, he distanced himself from the Assembly, returning only for necessities. In his pursuit for vengeance, Qifrey is ruthless enough to employ forbidden mind control magic to prevent any hindrance.
Agott (アガット, Agatto)
A black-haired girl from the renowned Arklaum family, one of the houses who established the vow to keep the magic arts a secret to the general populace. Agott was cast out during her test for apprenticeship when malicious rumors surfaced that the magic she was to present at her trial was someone else's. Upon becoming Qifrey's student, she became a bitter loner, obsessed with perfecting her magic skills under her own power, and distanced herself from the other students. Still, her precision in drawing rune circles makes her very popular with her schoolmates, who often approach her for help or advice.
Upon first meeting Coco, Agott initially treats her with scorn, even sending her off to a demanding test even though Coco had no practical experience with magic yet. However, owing to Coco's sincerity and imagination in devising new ways of employing magic, Agott gradually comes out of her shell and begins regarding Coco as a dear friend and equal, even though she is still reluctant to openly confess her feelings.
Tetia (テティア)
A bright, bubbly and constantly upbeat girl with pink curly hair. Her greatest desire is to make people happy with her magic.
Richeh (リチェ, Riche)
A gloomy, distant-looking young girl with long azure hair and a stubborn personality who is skilled in crystal magic and specialized in drawing very small rune circles. She became withdrawn when her beloved older brother Riliphin was the only person to appreciate her magic, and since refused to learn any new magic or submit to authority. Under Coco's encouragement and a magical test where she and her friends were imperilled by the Brimmed Caps, she decided to move on and learn more magic to help her friends.
Olruggio (オルーギオ, Orūgio)
A blackhaired witch living as a partner and supervisor for the Assembly (a "Watchful Eye") at Qifrey's atelier. Despite his gruff demeanor, he is actually a caring soul, and the magical items he creates are commonly meant to increase the comfort of their users. He specializes in magic creating fire, light and heat. He is from Ghodrey, City of Magic in the north.
Brushbuddy (フデムシ, Fudemushi, "Brushbug")
A fluffy caterpillar-like creature who attaches itself to Coco during her test for apprenticeship (mainly due to his species' love for the smell of magical inks) and henceforth resides at Qifrey's atelier as a pet. It is frequently hinted that he has an intelligence and persona as complex as a human's.

Brimmed Caps

Iguin (イグイーン, Iguīn)
A high-ranking member—and possibly the leader—of the Brimmed Caps, who characteristically wears a cone hat with a face mask shaped like an eye. Iguin is the one who gave Coco the spellbook which ultimately became responsible for turning her mother into stone, and it is hinted that he sees a potential in her which would allow the reintroduction of forbidden magic into everyday life.
Custas (クスタス, Kusutasu)
A young minstrel who had his legs permanently disabled in an accident that Coco and Agott rescued him from. He has come to befriend Tartah, and wished to learn all he can about apothecary from him in order to restore his legs. However, Ininia tells him a partial truth about the true nature of witches' magic, making him join the Brimmed Caps and turning him against Coco and Tartah.
Sasaran (ササラン)
A Brimmed Cap who experimented with transformation magic which failed, giving him a feline appearance. In order to hide this, and to intimidate his victims, he has taken to remote-control an empty cloak and hat to impersonate his presence, leading to his nickname "Empty Cloak Witch".
Ininia (イニニア)
An adolescent Brimmed Cap apprentice disguised as a regular witch, and Restys' student.
Master Restys (レスティス, Resutisu)
A Brimmed Cap witch who converses with his apprentice Ininia through her staff.

The Witches' Assembly

The Witches' Assembly is the institution in Coco's world which governs the use of magic, its spreading (by regulating the enlistment and advancement of apprentices) and the maintenance of its secrecy. The seat of the Assembly is located in an underwater city called the Great Hall, which can only be reached by a certain stairwell descending into the depths of the earth, as well as special magic. This community is financed by the Five Kingdoms of the Zozah Peninsula, in exchange for freely serving the people in times of great need. However, the Assembly is endeavoring to remain neutral in the realms' politics.

Alaira (アライラ, Araira)
A dark-skinned senior witch and one of Qifrey's best friends, even after he left the Assembly to strike out on his own.
Beldaruit (ベルダルート, Berudarūto)
Known by the title "Wise in Teachings", Beldaruit is a high mage and member of the Three Wise Ones, the Assembly's ruling council. He is disabled, utilizes a walking chair for locomotion, and likes to cloak his presence with illusions. His playful and seemingly scatter-brained personality hide a sharp intellect. He was once Qifrey's teacher and thus knows about his faults, and has offered to teach Coco to keep her out of her tutor's plotting against the Brimmed Caps.
Vinanna (ヴィナンナ, Vu~inan'na)
The current Wise in Principles. Founder and leader of the Knights Moralis.
Laglah (ラグラ, Ragura)
The new Wise in Friendships, the High Council's diplomat and successor of the previous sage Engendale after the latter's disgrace.
Sinocia (シノーシア, Shinōshia)
A friendly and caring witch physician residing in the Great Hall. Because any magic directly applied to a living body—including healing magic—is considered forbidden lore, she is limited to using conventional healing methods to treat her patients.
Kukrow (クックロウ, Kukkurou)
A disparaging, irresponsible sorcerer and Euini's former mentor.
Riliphin (リリフィン, Ririfin)
Richeh's older brother and currently Beldaruit's assistant.
Adina Arklaum (アディナ・アークロム, Adina Ākuromu)
Agott's mother and Chief Librarian in the Tower of Tomes, the Assembly's main magical library.
Atwert (アトワート, Atowāto)
Galga's lover, who later takes him in as his apprentice after Galga has had his memories erased.
Hiehart (ハイハート, Haihāto)
A dark-skinned male witch who hero-worships Olruggio.
Jujy (ジュジー, Jūjī)
Hiehart's dark-skinned, sassy young witch apprentice.
Loroga Roenton (ロロガ・ロエントン, Roroga Roenton)
A young witch apprentice and a former peer of Agott who is deeply jealous of her talents.

The Knights Moralis

Also known as the Order of Moral Spellcasting, the Knights Moralis (魔警騎士団, Makei Kishi-dan) is a subsidiary agency to the Assembly—specifically, its law enforcement branch. Its members are assigned to track any abuse of magic and hunt down perpetrators and victims for memory erasure.

Easthies (イースヒース, Īsuhīsu)
The stern, dispassionate, by-the-book field captain of the Knight Moralis.
Luluci (ルルシィ, Rurushi~i)
A leading member of the Knights Moralis, who is quietly stern but—contrary to some of her colleagues—moderate-minded. When she was young, Luluci and her best friend Eryenne were victims of a sexual assault by a local lord, which was brushed off by her mentor, who was friends with the offender and was later arrested for it by the Assembly, prompting her to join the Knights. The sight of others getting similarly abused is the only thing which can break down her usually serene facade.
Utowin (ウトウィン, Utou~in)
A brash, easy-going member of the Knights Moralis. He is from Ghodrey, City of Magic in the north, like Olruggio.
Galga (ガルガ, Garuga)
A member of the Knights Moralis, and Atwert's lover. Appearing aloof, he is really a quiet and simple man. He had his mind wiped permanently by Ininia and was about to be exiled by the Wise Ones to a solitary island called Adanlee, whereupon Atwert takes him in as his apprentice to care for him.
Ekoh (エコー, Ekō) and Etlan (エトラン, Etoran)
Twin juvenile Knight apprentices who have yet to take their profession seriously.

Others

Nolnoa (ノルノア, Norunoa)
An elderly maker of magical stationery (pens and inks) residing in the town of Kalhn.
Tartah (タータ, Tāta)
Nolnoa's young assistant in the shop. He suffers from silverwash, a rare sight condition which makes him effectively colorblind and thus initially unable to use magic because certain effects rely on inks differentiated by their color. After Coco helps him by teaching him magic with which to circumvent his disability, he begins forming a crush on her.
Euini (ユイニィ, Yuini)
A nervous young witch apprentice, and originally Kukrow's student. During an advancement test in which some of Qifrey's students were also participating, he is kidnapped by the Brimmed Caps, who etch a magical sigil into his skin, permanently turning him into a scaled wolf. However, with the help of Coco, Agott and Richeh, he receives a talisman which reverses the transformation while worn. Because his tattoo makes him eligible for mind erasure by the Knights Moralis—despite his victimization—he has gone underground with Alaira, who has become his new tutor. He has also formed a bond with Richeh, which has become her primary motivation to expand her studies in order to help him.
Dagda (ダグダ, Daguda)
A wandering minstrel and Custas' foster father. He originally died, but was bestowed with a Time Reversal Tattoo which reset his life and memories.
King Deanreldy Ezrest (ディンレルディ・エズレスト, Dinrerudi Ezuresuto)
The head of the royal family and the sovereign ruler of the Zozah Peninsula.
Prince Eoleo Ezrest (エオウレオウ・エズレスト, Eoureou Ezuresuto)
The king's young son and heir to the throne, who adores magic but, due to his social rank, is forbidden from getting into closer contact with it. He keeps a black Brushbuddy as a pet.
Queen Zayamaia Ezrest (ザヤマイア・エズレスト, Zayamaia Ezuresuto)
The matriarch of the Ezrest royal family.
Engendale (エンゲンディル, Engendiru)
An elderly male witch and the former Wise in Friendships who was apprehended by the Knights Moralis for his illicit use of magic for personal profit. Instead of having his memory erased, he was imprisoned by the Witches' Assembly.
