Book 1. Atelier of Wizarding Hats. Volume 1

«Atelier of Magic Hats» — is a story about PAINTING and MAGIC.
Magic in the Atelier of the Hatter's Hats is an art that is mastered through drawing. Maybe the author of the manga Kamome Shirahama is also a magician? After all, she manages to immerse us in a fantasy life with her unusual illustrations with surprising ease.
It must be true: Kamome's style is distinguished by strikingly detailed drawings that transport the reader into a magical world. Luxurious landscapes and beautiful characters comprehensively reveal the story of Coco, an ordinary girl who is fascinated by the incredible sophistication of magic. Unfortunately, magic is a rare gift that only a select group of people born with a talent for magic possess. So when the sorcerer Keefley comes to the village where Coco lives, the girl can't help but spy on him as he creates magic seals. And when she was alone, she decided to repeat it and... the irreparable happened! Coco makes a fatal mistake!"
The fact that the story of the Atelier of Wizarding Hats is somewhat reminiscent of the adventures of Harry Potter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is no accident. The artist loves the saga of JK Rowling. She was also probably influenced by the worlds of The Lord of the Rings, animated films by Studio Ghibli and perhaps even Star Wars. Thanks to the impressions of these and other works, Kamome has created her own unique universe, which is so eager to plunge into!
This is the first manga by Kamome Shirahama to «travel» to the world: until now, the author has never been published outside of Japan. At first, she had no intention of connecting her life with manga at all, until the stunning success of Atelier of the Wizarding Hats changed everything. The illustrated story became one of 12 nominees for the Manga Taishō Award, a prestigious manga award in Japan. In addition, in
2018, The Atelier of the Sorcerer's Hat (とんがり帽子のアトリエ) was ranked among the top 15 manga recommended by booksellers in Japan (the Honya Club website conducted a survey among 1300 booksellers to compile a list of the 15 most popular manga of 2018).
The Atelier of the Wizarding Hats has seven volumes and is still being published in Japan.
