Sasaran in acrylic markers! For his 2.5 fans out there

There's no way the Knights Moralis care about investigation and trials when the first thing they do in an incident is to brand anyone nearby as guilty and threaten to erase their memories.

Easthies doesn't check all of Coco's belongings to determine the cause of the forbidden spell during the river incident. He didn't check on Ellien or the nobleman in Luluci's backstory either.

They don't interrogate everyone present during the second test at Romonon for information on the Brimmed Caps after Iguin and Sasaran attack.

They considered erasing Qifrey's memories the moment they found him traumatized to near death as a child by the Brimmed Caps, who had already erased his memories to cover up their crimes.

They neglect their duty so much that Qifrey ends up finding and examining one half of the twin bottle given to Coco by Iguin on his own instead. It's no wonder he doesn't trust the authorities to help pursue the Brimmed Caps.

Witch Hat Atelier Volume 5 Review

This volume is so good—which is what I always say for every volume. I can’t help it. This manga is so good. The storytelling has always been amazing and even more so in this volume. This volume is the continuation and conclusion of the Second Exam arc. The first two chapters of this volumes are POV changes from Coco and Qifrey’s side to Richeh and Agott’s side but the way they all converge by the end of Chapter 27 is really good. Shirahama really knows how to pace her story well. She doesn’t drag or prolong the conflict and tries to make her characters resolve it as well as they can with their current abilities.

Chapter 24 begins with where Volume 4 left off when Coco, Qifrey and Tetia meet the Romonons. They’re statues that are still alive, and harbor a grudge against witches as they were the cause of their demise. They decide to quiz Coco and Tetia to see if a witch could be trusted. Coco realizes what they’re lacking is comfort or warmth and she gives them the snug stone that Olruggio gave to her and the statues use it and the fact that they melt was shocking. I honestly found that a really shocking twist. It could foreshadow the possible fate of Coco’s mother—or like a bad ending for her of sorts. It’s really perplexing. They managed to reunite with Alaira who was thrown into the area by the Brimhat. I really liked how Tetia and Coco worked together to solve the riddle. Tetia doesn’t have enough screen time before, so this is perfect for her. She works really well with Coco.

Chapter 25 goes back to Agott who’s trying to find a way to undo the forbidden spell. However, the invisible Brimhat takes Euini to find Coco as his goal is to find her. Richeh leaves the cave and recalls the time she was studying under a strict master who wouldn’t allow her to make her own spells. Richeh realizes that she knows that making her own spells won’t be effective in the long run but she still wants to find a way to be herself. Gosh, the fact that her previous master was abusive and the way he touched Rili’s hair was so creepy. I love that Richeh realizes that the spells one’s good at, the thoughts behind those spells and those that make up another’s weaknesses are still a part of them as witches and that she’ll still be herself even if she uses another person’s spell. I really love that Richeh came to terms with this herself and that she actually uses another person’s spell for the first time.

Chapter 26 is a bit of an intermission as the Knights of Moralis are showcased here. There are a lot of them and I honestly can’t wait to see what sort of role they’ll play in the future other than trying to get Coco’s memories erased.

Chapter 27 has it to where Qifrey finds the invisible Brimhat and tries to engage in a battle with him despite being severely injured. He leaves a wind spell scroll behind as Coco and Tetia are left behind to hide from upcoming danger; Alaira comes along with him. However, Coco and Tetia’s hiding spot doesn’t last long as Euini is thrown towards them and Agott is reunited with them. Apparently, this whole ordeal is because the Brimhats wants Coco to use Forbidden Magic in hopes of having her join them. The invisible Brimhat’s true form is revealed to be a mutant cat. I love how Shirahama writes the kids. They’re not liabilities and they know how to stay put when needed but if they need to take action, they do it.

Chapter 28 shows it even more as Shirahama gets Coco, Tetia and Agott to come up with ideas together and even come with concise plans like using the Brushbuddy to find the seal mark and trying to reverse the spell by drawing the glyph reversely. I seriously love seeing them progress. However, the main Brimhat, the one with the eyeball decoration, shows up towards the end; his name is Iguin and he wants Coco to draw a spell that can reverse the effects. Also, it seems that the mutant cat Brimhat, Sasaran, was once a regular human witch who had a pet cat. I wonder if he fused with his cat…

The final chapter for this volume, Chapter 29, shows that the kids’ efforts to reverse the spell actually worked somewhat. Euini’s consciousness is back, but he’s still stuck with the forbidden spell. Richeh gets Olruggio by using teleportation magic to bring him to the cave. When the Brimhats leave, the arc concludes on happy notes. Even though Euini still has the forbidden spell implanted on him and can only be controlled by the medallion, Alaira decides to take him in as her apprentice as they decide to hide from Witch Society until there’s a way to remove the spell. I honestly loved the moment Euini and Richeh hug. The fact that Euini was someone who wanted to become someone he’s not and Richeh was working so hard to be herself and then they learned that it’s okay to be themself (Euini) and that it’s okay to use others’ magic without losing yourself (Richeh). This scene made me shed some tears!! I hope that they’ll reunite one day! I also loved the part where Coco goes “I’ll draw what I want, thank you very much” to Iguin. I was legit cheering! Coco is such a great MC. She does not falter when being handed a possible bad choice. She just goes with what she wants.

I can’t wait to see what the next volume has in store! My copy of Volume 6 is going to arrive tomorrow, so hopefully, I can read it as soon as I can! What are your thoughts on this volume?

You guys think Sasaran blew the path or nah? I don’t know about you, but to me this looks like way too clean of a break for it to have broken due to age.

A proper Doc design for Hermit Hat Atelier!

Based on @threecowsusingthistoreadcomics’ original concept.

His lore does require some spoilers for the original Witch Hat Atelier manga, so delve past the read more if you dare.

Like Sasaran, the cat-human hybrid, Doc was once a fully human Brimhat witch. However, following multiple accidents and battles that left him physically mutilated and confined to a sealchair, he replaced his lower body with parts of goats and cats, as well as most of his facial structure. Later injuries took his right arm and chunks of his left skull, which he elected to fix with copper and the newly discovered magical substance that is redstone.

Now known as the witch that is Augmented with Steel and Gears, he is one of the biggest advocates for the freedom of magic and the dismantling and destruction of the Great Hall.

Unpopular opinion about Witch Hat Atelier

Chapter 49 of Witch Hat Atelier is the most pointless chapter I've ever read in manga. It contradicts not only the rest of the series but also itself just to present the message about the harm of sexual abuse in an extremely shallow manner.

For starters, the whole chapter is devoted to the Knights Moralis pursuing a peeping tom and it's on the very last page that the glyph on Dagda's body—the only thing from this chapter that has a real impact on the story—is revealed. The way Shirahama handled it shocked me given how she previously explored the psyches of Agott, Tartah, Richeh, and Eunie. By contrast, it's impossible to erase the Kamoshida arc of Persona 5 because it, along with the prologue, firmly establishes the core theme of the game—corrupt adults who abuse youth—and inspires the main characters to team up with each other as the Phantom Thieves of Hearts.

Throughout this chapter, Easthies shows kindness and understanding to Luluci as a victim of sexual abuse, even going on and on about the plight of the victim—both in her backstory and when they pursue the peeping tom. He punished her teacher on the spot for taking the side of the nobleman who abused her and her fellow apprentice, Ellien, and turning her in to the Knights Moralis to erase her memories just so he could silence her. He refuses to listen to the excuses the peeping tom makes, including the latter's appeal to their "natural urges as men".

However, Easthies never bothered to pursue the nobleman who started the whole mess in the first place. Ellien was mysteriously absent when her teacher turned Luluci in after Luluci attempted to defend her from the nobleman. It's noteworthy that Luluci used offensive magic—which is forbidden by law—against the nobleman to do so, destroying a non-negligible portion of the castle where their teacher had sent them to work. Luluci stands out in the entire series for being disproportionately privileged by the Knights Moralis; not even Agott enjoys their mercy and understanding even though she hails from the prestigious house of Arkrome.

Throughout the series, the Knights Moralis are infamous for ruthlessly enforcing the law of magic and jumping to conclusions just so they could find someone to punish:

Qifrey refuses to turn Coco in after she unknowingly uses a forbidden spell that turns her house into stone along with her mother. Later chapters validate his reasoning that the Knights Moralis would just erase her memories.

During the river incident, Easthies aggressively accuses Coco and Agott of intentionally altering the landscape and threatens to erase their memories instead of listening to them. Not only is it impossible for Coco to do such a stunt without the intervention of the Brimmed Cap Iguin as she's only recently begun studying magic, but also Agott has done nothing but send the mirage of a bird flying in the sky to call the adults for help.

During the second test, Qifrey asserts that not even victims of forbidden magic are spared from the wrath of the Knights Moralis, hence Agott's anger at the Brimmed Cap Sasaran when he nearly carves a glyph on her body while restraining her and Eunie's decision to hide with Alaira after Sasaran turns him into a scaled wolf against his will.

In Qifrey's backstory, the Knights Moralis considered erasing his memories even though the Brimmed Caps had already done it to cover up their crimes after they kidnapped him, took his eye, experimented on him, and buried him alive.

Galga brands Dagda as a Brimmed Cap for the glyph on his body even though Dagda has no idea what it is, later doing the same to Coco and Tartah when the kids try to defend him.

All of this is just a symptom of the cruel rigidity prevalent throughout witch society:

Agott treats Coco with disdain for being an outsider and therefore without the basic knowledge of magic and witch society. Agott tricks Coco into taking a difficult test against the wishes of their teacher in hopes that she would give up and fail.

It's revealed that Agott's prestigious family cast her out of home because she didn't live up to their high standards, explaining where her behavior came from.

Tartah has been told from a young age that he can never be a full-fledged witch because of his color blindness. Qifrey empathizes with his situation, saying that "refusal to accommodate differences is not an admirable quality of witch society." This foreshadows the reveal that Qifrey lost an eye as a child and he's losing the sight of his remaining eye nowadays, which he keeps a secret even from his best friend and apprentices due to the mistreatment he faced in the past.

Richeh and Riliphin's previous teacher punished her for her creativity so much that she came to hate the idea of growing up.

Eunie suffers not only from social and performance anxiety but also from verbal abuse at the hands of his teacher, Kukrow, eroding his self-confidence. Kukrow has the audacity to even ask Qifrey if he could exchange Eunie for Agott when Eunie is right there.

Those who took Qifrey in refused to give him a space appropriate for a child who had been traumatized to the point of near death—they sent him to a room empty of furniture and made him live under the ocean despite his trauma-induced fear of water—and to investigate his past and the Brimmed Caps who victimized him. Even his own teacher, Beldaruit, views him as dangerous due to contact with forbidden magic—one that was inflicted on him instead of something he committed out of his own will—and a subsequent desire to pursue the Brimmed Caps without considering how their neglect caused him to distrust them and refuse to seek help from anyone in the first place.

All of Chapter 49 raises as many questions as the official story of Pink Diamond's assassination did to Defense Zircon in "The Trial" from Steven Universe.

Defense Zircon: Ugh! Who am I kidding? This is pointless! We've all heard the rumors about the demise of Pink Diamond, but I can't believe these files- scrolls through the floating panels Shattered by one of her own soldiers- Ugh! In front of her entire entourage!?

Defense Zircon: Now, as the records show, Pink Diamond was shattered just outside a palanquin much like this. steps onto the palanquin Witnesses say Pink had just stepped out and had only taken a few steps forward when Rose attacked her from the front! [...] Defense Zircon: But the question no one seems to be asking is, "how"? Blue Diamond: I've been asking that question. Defense Zircon: A-A-A-And right you are to ask, my Diamond! B-Because at that time that Pink was shattered, Rose Quartz had been a recognized threat for several hundred years. There were no Rose Quartz soldiers in her entourage and none in her guard. So how did a Rose Quartz, with no business being anywhere near Pink Diamond, get so close in the first place? Where were Pink Diamond's attendants? Her Agates, Her Sapphires? And where was her Pearl? Yellow Diamond: They were with her, of course! They saw the whole thing! Defense Zircon: But none of them saw Rose Quartz approach? Wouldn't her Sapphires have seen Rose Quartz coming? Wouldn't her Agates have tried to fight her off? [...] Yellow Diamond: She must have slipped past them! Defense Zircon: Even if she did, wouldn't her Pearl have cried out an alarm, "Watch out, My Diamond!"

If Easthies could somehow tell Luluci was in genuine distress, why does he refuse to consider that it's logically impossible for Coco, who's only recently become an apprentice, to cast a forbidden spell as great as altering the landscape during the river incident? Why does Luluci receive so much kindness and understanding from the Knights Moralis? Why was Luluci's teacher punished even though the other abusive adult figures listed above have gotten away with mistreating youth like he did? Where was Ellien when her teacher turned Luluci in? Why did Easthies not punish the nobleman too even though he's supposed to hate sexual abuse? Why is Qifrey the one who has been working the hardest to investigate the Brimmed Caps, not the Knights Moralis even though they are supposed to enforce the law of magic?

Speaking of authority figures, I absolutely adore Atelia from Tweeny Witches. Despite her intimidating first impression and strict adherence to tradition and order as one of the highest authorities in the Witch Realm, this obscure anime goes out of its way to show glimpses of her humanity at multiple points even before the warlocks begin invading and her tragic past is revealed. The series is one of the most consistent pieces of media I've ever seen in general alongside the Moribito series and The Beast Player by Nahoko Uehashi and Fullmetal Alchemist by Hiromu Arakawa.
