Soar into the world of Witch Hat Atelier with this beautiful, large-sized hardcover packed with full-colour artwork by creator Kamome Shirahama. The 184 pages of this archival-quality, gold-stamped keepsake are packed with illustrations that have never been published in English before, featuring characters like Coco, Agott, Olruggio, and Qifrey, and, of course, the adorable brushbuddy. It is the ideal holiday gift for the diehard manga fan or newcomer to the hit anime!

The stunning pieces compiled in this 195x270 mm (7.7"x10.6") hardcover include cover illustrations without logos and text, character pieces from the series' magazine run that were not included in the manga volumes, and previously-exclusive art drawn to commemorate publication milestones in the manga's journey from its debut in 2016. It has become a multiple award-winning, 13-volume best-seller with millions of copies in print worldwide and a long-awaited anime adaptation.

One of the most versatile and inspiring artists working in comics anywhere in the world, Shirahama has drawn comics covers for Marvel and DC and designs for animation as part of the Star Wars-Visions project. The pieces showcased in The Art of Witch Hat Atelier exhibit Shirahama's broad range of styles, from Belgian comics and art nouveau to Studio Ghibli and classic and modern manga. A perfect gift for anime and manga fans young and old, The Art of Witch Hat Atelier was originally published in French to celebrate Shirahama's appearance as a guest of honour at the Angoulême International Comics Festival in January 2025.
