Back already with another volume of Witch Hat Atelier. This one continues the momentum of the first, expanding its worldbuilding with the addition of new rules, new factions, new characters, and a glimpse into the responsibilities of local witches. The art continues to be exceptional, full of movement and sweep, while the characters grow bit by bit from their archetypal introductions. Their interactions change and grow in satisfying ways. Plus a witch splits a flooding river with a sword. Come on, that’s goddamn awesome.
Naturally, Volume 2 ends on a cliffhanger. I need to start pacing my impulse purchases, though, so I can't rush off to the bookstore just yet.
