Witch Hat Atelier has always been more than a bit queer-coded, but Ep. 11 "The Test in Serpentback Cave" is where they make it obvious. The yuri is quite strong here between Coco and Agott, even if it's quite a bumpy road towards the yuri. And with Richeh getting her traumatic backstory here, this

Witch Hat Atelier gives Coco and her fellow apprentice witches a rainy day purely for the drama in Ep. 6 "A Light on a Rainy Day". Oh, it's not all doom and gloom. There's still a large amount of slice of life exploring the world of magic in some tasty ways. However, this episode is also when we
