Witch Hat Atelier to receive an anime?

A domain has apparently been registered for Witch Hat Atelier – Tongari Boushi no Atelier – a manga by Kamome Shirahama, with the implication is that it will be receiving an anime. With the domain currently inaccessible nor there being an official announcement, it’s currently up in the air.

Witch Hat Atelier is described as such:

A beautifully-illustrated story about a girl who longs for magic in her life and learns that, on the inside, she already is what she wishes she could be. Reminiscent of Studio Ghibli, this lushly drawn story was voted one of the Top 10 manga of the year in 2018 by the Japanese manga industry.

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, traveling 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 …

The series began in 2016, with 8 volumes currently officially localized. The Fall 2021 anime season is now underway, so the earliest one might expect this adaptation could be January 2022.

There may be concerns for the adaptation, with fans citing difficulties in properly capturing the detailed art style, for one, but for the time being, it could be a good way to give more attention to the series as a whole.
