“After finding success together in their second trials, Coco and her friends return to the warmth of the atelier. Before long, they are approached by Tartah from Kalhn, and he needs their help setting up shop at the thrilling witches’ festival, Silver Eve! But to design a contraption to sell there, the young students must consider the power of magic—at once delightful, beneficial, and potentially harmful. As Coco makes prep arations alongside Tartah, she’s reunited with Custas, a boy who was saved by Coco once before, but is convinced that luck will never shine on him again…”
Series Info/Source: This is the 8th volume in the Witch Hat Atelier series. I bought a copy of this book.
Thoughts: Most of this story follows Coco and Tartah as they try to come up with a way to help Custas. They are also preparing for a big magic festival (Silver Eye) that is about to start.
This was another fantastic read. The artwork is amazing, the characters are fun and the story is very well done. I loved the preparations for the Silver Eye festival and enjoyed watching Coco and Tartah come up with a way to assist Custas with his disability.
Summary (5/5): Overall this manga series is just full of so much magic, fun, and I love the way our characters take care of each other despite their differences. This is such a heartwarming and feel good series. The illustration is amazing and I really loved just sitting down to look at the panels in this manga. This is a great manga series and I would recommend it to those interested in fantasy/magic manga.
