Shirahama started the manga in July 2016 in Kodansha’s Morning Two magazine, and Kodansha published the manga’s first tankoubon volume in January 2017. The manga’s 15th volume was released in November 2025, and the 16th volume is scheduled for release on April 23rd, 2026.
Kodansha USA Publishing releases the manga series in English under the name Witch Hat Atelier, and it will release the manga’s 14th volume on March 17th, 2026. It describes the manga’s story below:
“In a world where everyone takes wonders like magic spells and dragons for granted, Coco is a girl with a simple dream: She wants to be a witch. But everybody knows magicians are born, not made, and Coco was not born with a gift for magic. Resigned to her un-magical life, Coco is about to give up on her dream to become a witch…until the day she meets Qifrey, a mysterious, travelling magician. After secretly seeing Qifrey perform magic in a way she’s never seen before, Coco soon learns what everybody “knows” might not be the truth, and discovers that her magical dream may not be as far away as it may seem…”
