Crunchyroll describes Witch Hat Atelier as:
In a world where only witches can cast magic, they must avoid being seen by ordinary people while casting. While Coco does her chores, she daydreams of becoming a witch. When a young witch named Qifrey visits her village, Coco uncovers the “absolute secret,” becomes Qifrey’s apprentice, and begins her studies. This is the story of children who encounter despair, yet reach out toward hope.
Witch Hat Atelier adapts the manga by Kamome Shirahama, which has been serialized in Kodansha’s Morning Two magazine since July 16th, 2016. Kodansha USA publishes the English‑language edition in both print and digital formats.
