The ninth episode of the TV anime "Atelier of Witch Hat," based on the manga by Kamome Shirahama, titled "Nightmare Sinking into Black," will air on TOKYO MX and other channels starting June 1st.
After hearing from Kieffrey about the pentagram test required to become a full-fledged wizard, Agate, Tetia, and Riche each share their thoughts and goals regarding magic. Meanwhile, Coco, whose starting point is different from everyone else, is tormented by nightmares due to the pressure of the belief that "those who do not know" cannot become wizards, and wakes up night after night to immerse herself in practicing magic. Meanwhile, Kieffrey, believing that the clue to the "wide-brimmed hat" lies in the magic ink that Coco possesses, attempts to track it using magic in order to find its traces.
"Atelier of Witch Hat" tells the story of Coco, a girl from a small village who longed to be a wizard but had given up on her dream. One day, she witnesses a wizard named Kieffrey using magic when he visits her village, and learns a big secret... The manga began serialization in "Monthly Morning Two" (Kodansha) in 2016, and the cumulative circulation of the comic books exceeds 7.5 million copies. The anime is directed by Ayumu Watanabe, known for "Children of the Sea" and "Nikuko-chan of the Fishing Port," and produced by BUG FILMS, known for "Zom 100: 100 Things I Want to Do Before I Become a Zombie" and "Summer Time Rendering."
