Witch Hat Atelier episodes: all 13, season 2, and where the anime stops in the manga

Witch Hat Atelier episode list

Season 1 aired on Mondays at 11 p.m. Japan time on TOKYO MX, BS11 and AT-X ^{official broadcast page}. Streaming ran a week ahead of TV: episodes 1 and 2 went online together on April 6, and each later episode followed the same schedule, so the streaming run ended on June 22 while TV finished on June 29 ^{official announcement}. The dates below are the Japanese broadcast dates, a week after each episode streamed. Ayumu Watanabe directed the season at studio BUG FILMS ^{staff list}.

How the episodes map to the manga

Neither the studio nor Kodansha publishes an episode-by-episode chapter list, so the chapter column comes from community guides. Chapter ranges appear only where two independent guides agree, and each row links both. The episodes adapt the first four volumes at roughly two chapters an episode. A few chapters are split across two episodes: chapter 3 runs through episodes 2 and 3, and chapter 6 through episodes 4 and 5.

The adaptation trims scenes as it goes. Producer Hiroaki Kojima has said some scenes were cut for time, especially in episode 1 ^{ComicBook.com interview}. That's the main reason to read from volume 1 even after you've watched the anime.

Where the anime ends and which volume to read next

Episode 13, "Forbidden Magic", adapts chapters 22 and 23 and ends on the last page of chapter 23. Chapter 23 closes volume 4, and volume 5 opens with chapter 24 ^{chapter list}. Volume 4 also holds a short bonus chapter after chapter 23; no source says whether the anime used it, so it's worth reading either way.

In English, Kodansha has published 14 volumes, the latest on March 17, 2026, and volume 15 is due on December 8, 2026 ^{Penguin Random House listing}. Japan is two volumes ahead, with volume 16 out since April 23, 2026 ^Kodansha.

Is Witch Hat Atelier season 2 confirmed?

Yes. The production committee announced season 2 on June 29, 2026, right after episode 13 aired in Japan, with comments from creator Kamome Shirahama and director Ayumu Watanabe ^{official announcement}. A short teaser premiered at Anime Expo in Los Angeles on July 3 and went up on the official site the next day ^{teaser post}. Crunchyroll will stream the new season ^{Anime News Network}.

As of October 25, 2026, there's no release date, season window, episode count or official staff list for season 2. Season 1 covers the first four of the sixteen Japanese volumes, so there's plenty of story left to adapt.
