Currently airing and streaming every Monday, the anime "Witch Hat Atelier" has become a massive sensation, garnering rave reviews from across the globe for its breathtaking animation quality. Ahead of the June 8 broadcast of Episode 10, "A Promise in Silver," a brand-new story visual highlighting the bond between Coco and Tartah has been unveiled.
The newly released visual is a beautiful montage of scenes featuring Coco and Tartah, a young boy who works at the magic item shop in the city of Kalhn.

This episode explores the dynamic between Coco, an Unknowing who became a witch's apprentice, and Tartah, who lives with Silverwash Syndrome, a condition where the world appears entirely in shades of silver.
Keep a close eye on how these two, each possessing unique circumstances that set them apart from other witches, find their own ways to face their personal challenges!
Episode 10: "A Promise in Silver"
Synopsis
Qifrey and Tartah rush Coco to the hospital after she collapses from exhaustion. Tartah, growing suspicious of Qifrey’s recent behavior, tries to confront him, only to be skillfully dodged by the mysterious teacher. Meanwhile, upon learning that Coco was originally an Unknowing before becoming Qifrey’s apprentice, Tartah finds himself feeling a complex sense of kinship, reflecting on his own life with Silverwash Syndrome.
That night, while Qifrey is occupied helping victims of a fire that broke out in the city, Coco’s condition takes a turn for the worse. To save her, Tartah must navigate the medicine storage and find the correct cure—a feat made nearly impossible by his inability to distinguish the colors of the powders.
Witch Hat Atelier — Series Information
Synopsis
"Magic"—a "miracle" that overflows throughout the world, enriching people's lives and serving as an indispensable part of daily existence. However, there is a catch: "Only witches can cast magic." It is the law of this world that the moment magic is cast must never be seen by others.
Coco, a young girl living in a small village helping her mother, has dreamed of being a witch since she was a child. One day, she catches a glimpse of the traveling witch Qifrey using his powers and discovers a massive secret. The "Absolute Secret" hidden by witches is that anyone can use magic if they draw a magic circle with special tools.
Beneath the surface of this magnificent and fantastical world lies a dark history of magic that adults refuse to speak of. Born as an "Unknowing One" (a normal child) but now learning magic as Qifrey’s apprentice, Coco steps into a world of many secrets, searching for growth and discovery alongside her new companions at the atelier.
This is a story of children who learn despair, yet reach out toward hope.
