Studio Tourhttps://youtu.be/cwuTfX6SmgQ?si=aI4H5h2klWdPX7mB
I cannot spot a hint of soul in this studio
>>287358770Most studios look like that.
>>287358770My house looks like this
>>287358770My soul looks like this
>>287358770There's no soul in the studio because they put it all into the anime.
>>287359012Based
>>287358669Cute.
>erm it’s okay to drown someone with water magic, burn someone alive with fire magic, blind someone with light magic, push someone off a cliff with wind magic BUT DONT YOU EVER EVER USE HEALING MAGIC ON THE POOR PERSON WITH CANCER THINK OF BIG MAGIC
>>287359219Problem?
>>287359219that's a wipin'
>>287358770It's a fucking office you sperm. Grow up and get a job and go see how much "soul" you have.
>the dark haired one is a girlaaaand dropped
>>287358669>right shelf>Easthias' cap next to Coco's wigDANGER! DANGER!
>4th threadWe won bros...
>>287359378>he unironically works like thatI pity you
>>287359108>Remember when Miyazaki was cooking pasta with his staff?The millionaire grandpa making his staff work overtime at 9pm and making fucking instant ramen when he could treat them all to amazing food? Wow Bugs are sure missing out on the soulful Ghibli experience
>>287359219But is literally stated that its not okay to use magic to harm another person?
>>287359647Unless it's okay of course.
>>287358770oh my science is that an office?
>>287359108Yes, I also remember Miyazaki having a piss poor family life for not going home and a terrible relationship with his son.
>>287359660Post where they say its okay. I'l wait.
>>287358669I never get some of these studio tours, 70% are freelancers and rest are just doing inbetweens so what are you doing a studio tour of? Shouldn't it be staff tour.
Tetia sex
>>287358669i'm not watching thatbut I like how they have makeshift hats and wigs for life reference
>>287359734Brushnigga is so lucky.
>>287359012based
>>287358770>>287358669>proper fire exits why do they get treated better than kyoani?
>>287359734She is the cutest followed by Coco and Richeh. F aggot is dead last.
Rape Richeh
>>287359676>a terrible relationship with his sonTo be fair, I'd also disown my son if directed shit like the Earwig and the Witch.
>>287359219Fire magic and the like is heavily controlled.
>>287360285Family > cartoonsNot that a redditor would understand
>>287360451Miyazaki just combined both and used his final movie as an incredibly unsubtle way to tell his son to do something else with his life and not try to follow in his footsteps.
>>287360494the lengths people would go to avoid just speaking to others directly
>>287360566It can't be helped.
>>287360638>series begins the same way except Olruggio teaches Coco instead of Qifrey>Coco botches a fire spell instead of a water one>Agott fucking dies
Which Hat would you Atelier?
>>287358669The most astroturfed anime ever made.
>>287359629>Bugs are sure missing out on the soulful Ghibli experienceThis but unironically.
>>287360828Reminder you're going to kill yourself
>>287360828no one cares about his political views.honestly, japanese fantasy's primary contribution is to present medieval europe as literally the human idealeven non-Christians seem to intuitively recognize pre-reformation europe was the peak.
>>287360828Good
>>287360828wtf I love this manga now
TethiaSex>>287360828I applaud her choices since it makes retards like you so immensely mad. You deserve to live your life in eternal anguish and suffering
>>287360828I can't believe people are shilling this manga THIS hard
the hell is this shit...
>>287361515It's called a cute loli.
my opinion on Shirahama depends entirely on how she handles Qifrey x Olruggio and Coco x Agottif she goes all the way, she has my supportif she chickens out, I hate hershrimple as
>>287360940>medieval europe as literally the human idealImagine believing this instead of realizing that Wizardry and Ultima are the reasons why Japanese "fantasy" settings all default to using genetic Middle-earth. And Tolkien is the reason why "fantasy" works in general all just copy the most basic aspects of LotR poorly.
>>287361530It's not a romance series, nobody is getting with anybody. I predict at least one of them dying at some point though, probably Qifrey because Coco can never suffer enough.
>>287361432Wah wah wah keep crying retard
>>287361583>only romance series end with couples getting together
>>287361583Qifrey dying could definitely be done well but I selfishly don't want it.
>>287361628Yes.
>>287361589I've already done my due diligence. I'm willing to bet that at least one person has read my post and has been sufficiently warned. I noticed that a lot of people in the anime announcement thread were ignorant of the nature of the mangaka. As long as I keep spreading the message, I can be satisfied with what little I can do.
>>287361530mentally ill
I keep seeing people comparing Qifrey to Gojo and it’s making me unreasonably angry.Don’t get me wrong, I love JJK too but they are not the same to me at all, other than kind of in appearance.It could be the black/white thinking of my flavor of neurodivergence. Who knows.That’s all. That’s the post.
>>287361678It was me, I had no idea about this anime and because of anon's post I will be watching it. Thank you!
quit copy-pasting twxtter shit for rage-bait
>>287361733>kind of in appearancethat's all they care about, casuals that only learn of series via CR announcements have equally superficial takes on what they see
i wonder if the wizards considered combining printing press with the magic ink. in the limit, nano-printing, - applied to scales similar to modern microchips manufacturing, let's say 7nm, - could be used to build a weapon to kill God
It's about as good as it could be so far although I don't think it's quute on the level of meshi as an adaptation. Somehow the pacing just feels a bit off, hopefully that's just the beginning.Also the ED is pure dogshit
>>287362154DM's pacing felt weird too, especially in the early episodes. I don't think 20 minute eps can ever properly match manga pacing anyway.
>>287361703>posting on 4channel dot org in the year of our Lord 2026we're all mad hereI'm madyou're madyou must be or you wouldn't have come here
>>287362309You're not cool or edgy for being hereIt's just an oriental cartoon forum
>>287361530>Qifrey x Olruggio and Coco x AgottDon't forget Tartah x Custas as well
>>287362424>cool or edgyno, no, nowe're mentally unwellbecause this place has been a shithole forever and has only been continually getting worse and worse year after year so still posting here in the big 2026 is a clear indicator of some kind of mental problems
Is this gayest show evermade
>>287362816Naruto exists, so no.
>>287362816Not even gayest of the season because marriage fagxin exists
>>287361733Unlike Gojo, Qifrey stifles the growth of his students.
>>287360828you're 2 decades late anon, i mean a love live seiyuu got married to an unknown jeet yet her character song albums sell like hot cakes.
>>287363059Unlike Gojo, Qifrey isn't a fraud who only catches Ls.
>>287362816Other than qifrey and that beard lad, what is even gay about this? >what about coco and aggot yurifags need to calm their tits, this hasn't even reached the level of chemistry or tension akebi had in its first 20
Is this another pedobait show like Medalist? Ill give it a few more episodes to decide if I drop it.
Coco and Agott are the Sakura and Syaoran of WHA.
>>287360828>fearful dumbasses mistaking the mistakes and growing pains of pubescence for destruction>wanting to stay babies following simple instructions forever
>>287359219>wants to put doctors out of a jobBro think about their their second mansion...
Coco and Agott are the Madoka and Homura of WHA.
>>287362816There's only two gay guys ans none of the girls are gay
>>287360451Every retard junkie out there has a baby mama somewhere. Only a handful of animation directors will be remembered.Miyazaki choosing work over his family makes absolute sense and any man with a desire to be great would do the same. Children are bland, animation is one of the fine arts of our time.
I heard this manga/anime makes /pol/tard chuds seethe. Sounds based
So is there any actual yuri in this or is this yet another yuribait slop?
>>287363618the latter
>>287361733I find it funny when I remember Qifrey predates Gojo for two years of more.
>>287363139Qifrey and Olruggio aren't the gay guys, it's these two (they're not really all that relevant)
>>287359809kyoani knew they had to suffer so that others could learn from their fate
>>287358770>even Japan is being subjected to the open office memeHow horrifying.
>>287358770Anime used to have so much soul
>>287363682Forgot about these two, but i have heard that qifrey and beardie have got a spinoff novel or manga that delves deep into their relationship. Even if it isn't concrete, as long as chemistry is top tier then it's good enough, coco and aggot have got a long way to go.
>>287362816watch the summer hikaru died
>>287359219The problem is not with the healing magic itself, rather that doctors have terrible penmanship so they'd become terrible wizards.
>>287364158lel that would explain why every time we see someone using magic to "heal" a condition it ends with the most fucked up secondary effect ever.
I saw episode 1 and it just screams this was made for and by women
>>287361432>It has destroyed the family unit, made people spiritually dead, and decimated any sense of national unity and cohesion.Like everyone else on this site you're almost certainly an introverted misanthrope who is cynical about every belief system around. Complaining that modern society reflects your values is retarded.
>>287364363listen. i hate women as much as the next incel, but I didn't see that at allit just seems derivative, for the most part. well animated and derivative
>>287363059t. brimhat bitchBut really Qifrey is far more codependent with his students than Gojo is. Gojo ultimately is a lone wolf, even as he tries to foster replacements for himself.If Qifrey lost any of his students, he'd probably kill himself. Coco especially becomes a person he orients himself around, given how headstrong she is.
Just thinking about witches
>>287364363>this was made for and by womenthis was, in fact, made by a woman for womenit also gets a lot of French exclusive collectors' stuff for some reason
>>287358669Trannyslator is a fucking retard - who the fuck translates mahoutsukai as witch?!
>>287364747why aren't you watching in Japanese if you're so knowledgeable
>>287364788What does my ability with language have to do with criticizing a translator's work? Are you a retard? Ah yes, stupid question - of course you are - hang yourself, faggot.
>>287364842Ah, so you don't know Japanese? Looks like you're the retard here. No hangings for you!
>>287364747>>287364842That was the mangaka's chosen localization for the [magic users] that she uses in her artwork of the series."Atelier of the Pointed Hats" was titled by her as "Atelier of the Witch Hats", which got normalized in English as "Witch Hat Atelier". Because she used Witch as the term in the title, translation groups (fans and professionals) have generally stuck to using Witch as the typical localization.
>>287364980Oh, Nice to know that, but stupid anyway - that`s not even witch hat that`s literally wizard`s cone!
>>287358669they should had bought the cosplay from china, it's way better than that diy crap
>>287364363So was Precure, but alas, here we are.
>>287358770Corpo suicide is so high...
>>287358669You motherfuckers undersold this shit, it's not great, it's fucking brilliant and I'm like this is seinen even if shoujo-coded, it's been like 5 or 6 hours, read not even half of the available chapters and I cannot stop, it's 7am mates.also, Agott best girl.
>>287367194we told you this years ago but you didn't listen
>>287367237I thought it was a manga for girls, didn't know I would deepdive on the ethics of magic
Coco's VA being a rookie who had done mostly background characters is a surprise to me. I like her voice and she's cute
>>287367254Oh, if you're not even halfway through and you like that aspect of the series then you're going to love the second half since it really zeroes in on that.
evil coco is going to be the final boss
Why did they cut out the toilet scene?
I couldn't get through the first episode, not even half way through it and I'm falling asleep. Same thing happened to me with Frieren. My brain is too fried for these slower paced shows. Coco's pretty cute though desu.
>>287365075That's knitted from asbestos though
I like how the first episode was basically this thread
>>287358770Weird that there's no action figures that they usually have around for references
>>287365681what is that supposed to mean
>>287368522If you're still looking for fantasy anime you might try watching DunMeshi, I think that anime is more entertaining, Witch Hat anime is just really comfy until few moments it isn't. In DunMeshi the tone is way more consistent and thanks to that it has a different charm compared to this.
>>287358669I sure hope this doesn't become the show tourists flock to like what happened with Frieren and Dungeon meshi.
>>287365061That's cause the evil witches called dibs on the cool hats.
>>287368917it won't, it's too boring for that
>>287368869Dungeon Meshi is pretty comfy and episodic until the mid-season point.
>>287368957I think the art and the otherwise solid but not exceptional quality of the writing will be enough. Already is, frankly, apparently some places have been wanking it off forever anyway.Not to mention what will happen if or when its various moral conflicts and character beliefs end up breaking containment and people decide it's the latest battleground for their internet wars.It's a shame, cause I think it's strength, writing/morals wise is that its somewhat low key and understated. The main heroines are fairly archetypal girls and they have interesting, though not necessarily energizing, plots and conflicts that helps keep the story feeling more reasonable than you might expect. Dungeon Meshi was sort of the opposite: its writing was excellent and its characters bizarre but also recognizable in a way that elevates the material even as it became every bizarre and sometimes esoteric. It was still able to link that to a very familiar idea of food and hunger.Whereas Witch Hat Atelier is more sedate. It's nice to have a fantasy story that's just girls on adventures, and not inundated with all these other tones and references and very "modern" feeling fantasy anime cliches.
>>287368917you talk as if wha fans weren't the first ones to jump on the frieren wagon in the first couple of chapters, wha and frieren fanbase is going to be mostly same consisting of these tourists you speak of.
>>287360494Wasn't Miyazaki the one who forced his son into working as a director to begin with?
Coco is lucky to have Agott lend her shoes so she can smell the heck out of them.
>>287369022I think most anime watchers will drop it within the first few episodes because it looks too much like a slice of life where the expectation is that nothing will ever happen.
>>287369290They're going to fight a dragon by episode 5, would be funny if they didn't even last until then.
>>287359219the real crime is to wipe a peeping tom's memory
When's the next episode PV? I'm an old fossil who still misses them being at the end of the previous episode. I know they're held back to farm constant engagement, but since they've already completed production it just annoys me that we have to wait anyway.
>>287358669this series means nothing only discussed because it's more fodder for the never ending culture wars
>>287370751It was discussed here even before culture war nutjobs decided to drop by. Go use an archive for once.
>>287359647>>287359700didn't the little gestapo girl attack a valued child molester with wind magic? if the gestapo wasn't corrupt she would have been wiped
>>287368917that's exactly why i'm hatewatching it. that and because jarman is covering it
>>287371384Yes, and she was almost mindwiped for that, until the other one intervene in her favor and recruit her.
>>287373391man this gestapo is being run like a circus
What's the technology level supposed to be in this setting? Medieval or Early Modern period? Or is it running on Spongebob Bikini Bottom logic where they have like aesthetic phones and Internet because of magic.
>>287358669So this nigga just decided to go fuck JJK and decided to isekai into this world?
>>287359219Gun magic doesn't kill people; people with gun magic kill people.
>>287373539according to the kardashev scale? presumably this is a type 3 civilisation and the entire story is set ibn a dome city on a century ship
>>287373425Its kinda, like, the entire point.
>>287373599That would be strange since he existed before Gojo.
>>287373708it should be more explicit that they're the bad guys then. it's too nuanced for general audiences
>>287373741No, people need to learn to pay attention to what they're watching/reading and stop being retarded. That thinking is how Netflix exects think, "characters must repeat multiple times out loud what just happen for the people not paying attention"
>>287373810i watched the rip, which is what damon was being interviewed for when he gave that quote. it's shit and has nothing to do with fat bitch atelier
>>287373741Did you read the manga?They're insanely antagonistic.
>>287373880they should be eating and killing babies and protagonist should be getting in battle shonen fights with them
>>287364842t. loser who couldn't even learn japaneselmao
>>287373880If one character doesn't look at the chamara and says "You see, they're not really good, they are extremist in their ways and unflexible in their ideas, even if we know why they're like that, soon we will soon clash with them, as they are another antagonist in this WITCH HAT ATELIER" they wont get it
>>287373962you could just show them being evil instead of merely saying they're evil. as it goes the only explicitly evil thing they've done is try to lobotomise a guy for wanting to see women's panties
>>287374014They bully little girls.
>>287374014Well, the fact they're introduce as a major threat to Coco should be your first clue.
>>287374014And Coco with nothing more than circumstantial evidence.And people who had forbidden spells drawn on their bodies without consent.And their own superior, one of the three wise, despite having no authority to do so.And Coco again.
>>287374026do they kick little girls into mud and blow up schools for insurance money? i haven't seen any truly evil moments from them purely for shock value>>287374040not explicit enough>>287374060they should be shown mindwiping people to make money or as petty acts of revenge
>>287374088Wow, is this a shonenfag mindset?
>>287374088>they should be shown mindwiping people to make money or as petty acts of revengeThat's not the sort of evil they are. They represent doing terrible things for an oppressive system while believing they are good and righteous.
>>287374113that's exactly why this manga is flopping in japan>>287374121so you're telling me there's not a single wizard gestapo who has ever been corrupt? i find that implausible
>>287374113You know what? You're exactly right.
>>287374158>so you're telling me there's not a single wizard gestapo who has ever been corrupt? i find that implausibleIts an ongoing manga, we know like, five of the guys as of now.
>>287374189aren't there like 80 chapters so far
I would like to sex little witches with my penis
>>287358669Just watched it. Has everyone been talking about how great the feet shots in episode one were? That was great.
>>287368531only asbestos can withstand the power of magic!
did anyone do stiches for ep1 and 2?
>>287377405Haven't seen any in previous threads. I guess the anon who usually does stitches isn't watching this.
>>287360748Kinda based and it would set up some stakes and seriousness to the otherwise lacking story, I believe.
WHA if it actually was Harry Potter
>>287358770>Bug filmsChecks out
evil coco is hot
>>287375012the right side is a boy though
>>287379348Cute boy wearing pants
>>287379458Very
>>287383911At some point the forces of good have to up their fashion game, cause it's kind of embarrassing.
>>287384637Evil has to look cool, because otherwise who'd join?
why are the op ed so bad?
>>287373741True, every piece of media needs to be dumbed down as much as possible to appeal to the lowest common denominator
>>287358669more like bitch shit ateli-gay
>>287385004being vague and contradictory is not, in fact, intelligent storytelling
Coco anal
>>287386023cute black little witch
the face of evil
>>287385753Where is either with respect to the Wizard Gestapo?
>>287379348Teitia is so erotic.
>>287362154>Also the ED is pure dogshitso like meshi!
>>287373599>>287373731>He's a teacher>He takes care of young children>Same eye and hair colorYou have no idea how much I'll be waiting for the beach episode
magic is the miracle that colors the world anon!
>>287388383>beach episodekeklmao even
>>287389263They do go to a beach-like bath but there are no adults around.
Why are you guys watching this woke trash? It has niggers and faggots, it’s not anime.
>>287388383But is he also a yuri and futa loving troon?
>>287368917It’s the new lycoris recoil and gundam mercury actually Shitty show only tourists like
>>287363263So they’re straight and kill homosexuals for sport? Sounds about right
>>287358669Reasons why you should watch & read witch hat atelier :- ethnic diversity - disabled characters - queer characters - characters with vitiligo (like me)- sa representation - hijabis characters - beautiful characters and art style - author is pro :watermelon:
>>287390293Coco also has a cool looking scar on her face (like me.)
>>287390293hey buddy i just saw that xeet. you couldnt even be bothered to change what was the watermelon emoji to just palestine. people used to at least put a tiny bit of effort into their bait in my day. baka. do better anon.
>>287390327If only she got burned a bit further up around her eye instead of her cheek she would look just like Zuko.
A reminder Shirahama draws Witch Hat Atelier porn under the name Butterchalk.
>>287390466I think it was meant to mock the tweet
>>287390580It's good to teach (F)Aggot she Isn't allowed to be gay!
>>287359378>become a soulless corporate drone like me!no thanks
This is sort of masochistic to draw those details for no reason
I love that they gave Gojo a better anime
>be random guy in the world of WHA>go outside in the summer>wear a hat with a brim to shield yourself from sunlight>suddenly the magic police shows up, binds you with their banners and erases your memories
>>287388084they're not explicitly evil (vague) and they're evil but not punished for it (contradictory)
new jarman droppedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYNYnsTtPFM
>>287359369It always confuses me why series have overly complex magical punishments and never just like paddling
>>287390466why watermelon THOUGH?
>>287391577sekrit symbol of le resistance
>>287391250wait, so on monday are we getting episode 3 and the japs are getting episode 2?
>>287391659Japanese and international streaming services will be one episode ahead of the Japanese TV broadcast for the whole season, so in that sense yes.
I want to teach little girls and live with them in one house
>>287391615He really does look better clean shaved
>>287379348Is agatt a boy? I thought she was a she.
This anime is pretty nice so far. If only the maker of the series didn't have a xitter.
>>287391250Don't know if he picked the right show. It will be tough for him to sift through all the /pol/ shitposting
>>287391108Never read a story with institutional evil?
>>287373962anon this shit has like over 10 volumes and nothing like that ever happensMC will never be a based brimbro.Emilico is better than she could ever dream of being.
>>287393225in 1984 they kill niggas and torture them
>>287393180Not just that, but people are pretty libertine with their spoilers in these threads too.
>>287384665>>287384637>>287383911the cone hats look retarded why are you saying the evil side looks good?
>>287390896the art is all this show/manga has going for it.
>>287359219It makes sense to regulate any magic that directly interacts with human body, because any slight fuckup may have fatal consequences. But yeah, the witch society is retarded, but at the same time every witch is potentially a walking nuke, since there's no "mana" and what you draw is what you get. Honestly the only system that'd make sense in my eyes is heavily regulating the flow of ink. As it stands, a random goon with a day's worth of magic education can potentially print an army's worth of boomsticks to arm peasants with. The peace and the whole secret keeping is extremely brittle and literally one printing press away from blowing up in everyone's faces
>>287391250>removed coco pushing the guy with her feetbut...why.why...
