This story was sparked by a casual
comment from a friend, who
mentioned that the process of
bringing an illustration into the world
seemed just like magic. I'd like to
offer a word of thanks here to all my
imaginative friends, whose many ideas
helped form the world of Witch Hat
Atelier. I'd also like to express my
gratitude to you, my readers, who
in opening this book come to be
a part of its world.

Shoya is a bully. When Shoko, a girl who can't hear, enters his
elementary school class, she becomes their favorite target, and
Shoya and his friends goad each other into devising new tortures
for her. But the children's cruelty goes too far. Shoko is forced to
leave the school, and Shoya ends up shouldering all the blame. Six
years later, the two meet again. Can Shoya make up for his past
mistakes, or is it too late?

Having lost his wife, high school teacher Kohei Inuzuka is doing his best to raise his young
daughter Tsumugi as a single father. He's pretty bad at cooking and doesn't have a huge
appetite to begin with, but chance brings his little family together with one of his students, the
lonely Kotori. The three of them are anything but comfortable in the kitchen, but the healing
power of home cooking might just work on their grieving hearts.

"This season's number-one feel-good anime!" —Anime News Network

"A beautifully-drawn story about comfort food and family and grief. Recommended." —Otaku
USA Magazine
