As the apprentice witch Agate steps up to a bluff\u2019s edge and then leaps off, briefly falling and then soaring into the distance, the effect provoked by each carefully chosen shape offers guidance for visually navigating this experience: the triangle of the bluff in the first panel leading the eye up towards Agate\u2019s shock of dark hair, the way that curving bluff and Agate\u2019s arched form guide us up, over, and down through the following two panels, the effortless way geography and panel lines combine to show motion across stable, inviting landscapes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-37891\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" data-attachment-id=\"37892\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/1-29\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1-1.png?fit=872%2C848&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"872,848\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1-1.png?fit=872%2C848&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1-1.png?fit=584%2C568&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37892\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1-1.png?resize=584%2C568\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1-1.png?w=872&amp;ssl=1 872w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1-1.png?resize=768%2C747&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/1-1.png?resize=308%2C300&amp;ssl=1 308w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In her mastery of visual manga storytelling, Shirahama exhibits the joy of study and practice in action that are Witch Hat Atelier\u2019s great passions; in our ability to appreciate that skill, we reflect the further satisfaction of seeing such labor not as \u201ceffortless,\u201d but indeed the end result of copious effort, the \u201cmagic\u201d of what human hands can do when dedicated to a worthy passion. Witch Hat Atelier\u2019s form is proof of its philosophy. With every page it demonstrates how wonderful it is to master an art or craft, and how rewarding it is to understand the skill and effort informing that mastery. Though some might say a certain ineffability is lost through understanding the finer mechanics informing an artist\u2019s seemingly holistic end result, Witch Hat Atelier attests that understanding the mechanical process of magic only further enhances its beauty. After all, is it more impressive to simply draw on forces beyond our understanding, or to conjure such wonders through our own study and imagination?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, some artists do find a certain satisfaction in the idea of being uniquely positioned above the common rabble. What could the blinkered masses know about the beauty of art, or the sacred practice of mastering magic? So Agate finds herself, as she begrudgingly admits that if Coco were to properly learn the principles of magic, there would truly be no difference between herself and this earnest outsider. <a href=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/08\/07\/the-honesty-of-magic-in-witch-hat-atelier\/\"  rel=\"noopener\">\u201cMagic is honest,\u201d<\/a> we have learned &#8211; it cares not for your birth or your station, but only for the effort you put in.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"37893\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/2-21\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2.png?fit=776%2C811&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"776,811\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2.png?fit=776%2C811&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2.png?fit=584%2C610&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37893\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2.png?resize=584%2C610\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2.png?w=776&amp;ssl=1 776w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2.png?resize=768%2C803&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2.png?resize=287%2C300&amp;ssl=1 287w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To Agate, who we have seen is still haunted by the expectations of her family lineage, such indifference to status is practically unthinkable. But there is also a freedom in that thought: if she can learn to let go of the expectations attending her family name, she too might find joy in discovering herself through the process, rather than simply racing to prove her suitability as an heir. Studying merely for the purpose of validating your self-image tends to be a hollow, alienating process. But if you let it, study can also <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">teach<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> you about <em>yourself<\/em>, what inspires your passion, and where your dreams might eventually lead. Study is merely scaffolding; it is up to you to decide where you set your foundation, and what you intend to build.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So it goes for Coco, whose careful practice leads her and Qifrey to a mutual discovery: she specializes in simple yet cleverly employable spells, relying on the same straight lines she mastered while working as a junior seamstress. Rather than using study as a cudgel to prove her preconceptions, Coco remains open to new experiences, and thereby learns something about herself through the natural progression of her runic practice. Earnest commitment to mastery for its own sake will undoubtedly lead you to an understanding of which pursuits come naturally, and which strain against your own proclivities. By following such inherent forms of guidance, your own style and specialties will naturally emerge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"37894\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/4-18\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/4-1.png?fit=864%2C700&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"864,700\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/4-1.png?fit=864%2C700&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/4-1.png?fit=584%2C473&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37894\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/4-1.png?resize=584%2C473\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/4-1.png?w=864&amp;ssl=1 864w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/4-1.png?resize=768%2C622&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/4-1.png?resize=370%2C300&amp;ssl=1 370w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Qifrey is quick to note a further advantage of this process: by identifying the things you are good at, you gain a source of confidence in times of uncertainty. It\u2019s a welcome reminder; though Witch Hat Atelier is insistent on the \u201cmagic\u201d of practice and study, it is also well aware that such pursuits can often be an exhausting, seemingly thankless process. Whatever tricks we can embrace to lessen the hardship of this process are welcome, as essential as our study and duplication of proper runic form. Only diligence can lead us to mastery, and diligence must be properly fed with rest, validation, and general self-care.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the context of Witch Hat Atelier, where dedication to the true labor of mastery is the only path to success, Coco\u2019s ability to find joy in this process is perhaps the closest thing to a genuine superpower. She is quick to articulate the unique wonder of coming to understand the craft informing the end result, reflecting that \u201cI\u2019m starting to realize that seals look even more incredible than they did before. Ever since I learned about how they\u2019re constructed, it feels like I\u2019m able to understand the incredibly difficult things being done.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"37895\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/5-26\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5.png?fit=851%2C842&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"851,842\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5.png?fit=851%2C842&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5.png?fit=584%2C578&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37895\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5.png?resize=584%2C578\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"578\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5.png?w=851&amp;ssl=1 851w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5.png?resize=768%2C760&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/5.png?resize=303%2C300&amp;ssl=1 303w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coco\u2019s words speak to the joy experienced by any true craftsman admiring the work of a master. Understanding does not lessen our sense of wonder in admiring the end result &#8211; in fact, it only furnishes that wonder with a further astonishment at the remarkable acts of skill informing that result. If understanding cancels the magic, then what we were admiring was never all that miraculous in the first place. But when craftsmen or artists produce objects reflecting genuine mastery, then an understanding of the process will only make those objects seem all the more incredible. The same admiration holds true for criticism: art critics might like <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">different<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> things, but they are fundamentally seeking that same sense of wonder. Even if a magic trick is no more than sleight of hand, well, sleight of hand is itself a result of careful practice, impressive even if you know how the trick is produced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unfortunately, Richeh lacks Coco\u2019s natural sense of amazement at seeing all the mountains of study and mastery awaiting her. She is what you might call a \u201cnatural\u201d or \u201csavant,\u201d and while such talents can lend themselves to prodigious displays of precocious early skill, they can also become a cage, trapping you in repetition of the processes that come naturally to you. True study requires humility, and humility demands vulnerability, a willingness to be uncertain and to fail. By sticking only to executing the skills that appeal to her, Richeh is denying herself the ability to grow beyond her natural talents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"37896\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/6-19\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6.png?fit=776%2C629&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"776,629\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6.png?fit=776%2C629&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6.png?fit=584%2C473&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37896\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6.png?resize=584%2C473\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"473\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6.png?w=776&amp;ssl=1 776w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6.png?resize=768%2C623&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/6.png?resize=370%2C300&amp;ssl=1 370w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Productive study with an eye for improvement demands challenging yourself, and embracing the things that are foreign to you &#8211; this is why many artists or writers of all stripes can work for decades and never get meaningfully better, because they limit themselves to the genres, forms, and results with which they feel most comfortable. True improvement demands allowing yourself the room to get lost and afraid in your dislocation from that which comes easily, and thereby discover you are capable of more than the limits you have assigned yourself.

Genuine craftsmen and artists understand that mastering the essentials is the only way to pursue meaningful innovation, and to create works that are not just true to your experience and desires, but built to genuinely fulfill their duties, whether that\u2019s working as a piece of furniture or emotionally connecting with an audience. It is a seductive prospect to simply skip all the steps between conjuring an idea and expressing your final result to an audience, but all true craftsmen and artists know ideas are the easy part, and that it is the hard-earned ability to skillfully express that idea which makes your creation meaningful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Richeh expresses this novice perspective precisely, saying that \u201cI don\u2019t need anyone else\u2019s magic. I refuse to let mine be tainted.\u201d It is a great yet common hubris to believe we come into this world with a pure ability and vision, and that study can only muddle our intentions with expectations inherited from other sources.

Her spells were a source of connection with her brother Rili, who stated that he \u201chopes she\u2019ll never change.\u201d Doing things the same way you\u2019ve always done them can indeed be a way of maintaining a connection with the past &#8211; cooking a departed relative\u2019s favorite meal, playing a song someone always loved to hear, and so on. But though our loved ones would surely want us to maintain our closeness to them, they would not want us to stagnate, to hold onto what is comforting and familiar at the expense of what could be transformative and enriching. As human beings, we cannot subsist on memory alone; as artists and artisans, we cannot mine only our familiar experiences and hope to create something remarkable and new.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And it is not just loyalty to the past that can foster such stagnation. Arriving at the cave that will be the site of this second test, we are introduced to our first <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bad<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> teacher, one who blames his student Ueini for things he cannot control, and openly fantasizes about replacing his apprentice\u2019s failing limbs with more effective appendages. He seems to have no interest in discovering what Ueini is actually good at, only in his ability to gain prestige through the graduation of a successful heir. Even at the highest levels of any discipline, you will still find people who refuse to accept the humility necessary for true scholarship, who are driven by a desire to enhance their own prestige rather than create works of use and beauty to others. The work is a byproduct of their selfishness; they have put the cart before the horse, seeking the renown that comes with meaningful labor, rather than the excellence in that labor that might warrant such renown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"37899\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/16-15\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/16.png?fit=863%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"863,480\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/16.png?fit=863%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/16.png?fit=584%2C325&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37899\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/16.png?resize=584%2C325\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"325\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/16.png?w=863&amp;ssl=1 863w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/16.png?resize=768%2C427&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/16.png?resize=500%2C278&amp;ssl=1 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The bond between master and student is a sacred trust, and that trust must extend in both directions. In order to embrace the vulnerability necessary to improve, a student must believe they will not be punished for failure, in fact understand that persistent failure is a necessary prerequisite to any sort of eventual success. While Qifrey gently guides Richeh past her own fear of failure, or of becoming \u201cunlike herself\u201d in some way, he has nothing but disdain for this fellow teacher\u2019s lack of faith in his own student. This man does not deserve students &#8211; there are few duties more meaningful or essential than guiding the next generation towards first curiosity and then engagement with the manifold challenges of their pursuit, and those \u201cteachers\u201d who shame their students for embarking on that path have no right to call themselves such.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Appropriately for both Richeh and this new master, the second test, \u201cThe Sincerity of the Shield,\u201d is a test of humility &#8211; not one where you are supposed to shine, but one where you act as a guardian, carefully shepherding your charge from one end of a cave to the other. It is a test that is presumably designed to weed out those who pursue magic only for their own glory &#8211; it is a test that embodies this world\u2019s philosophy of magic, that it should be a tool used strictly to help others, and that your own ego should never inform your performances.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"37900\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/21-13\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?fit=1157%2C822&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1157,822\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?fit=1024%2C728&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?fit=584%2C415&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37900\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?resize=584%2C415\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"415\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?w=1157&amp;ssl=1 1157w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?resize=1024%2C728&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?resize=768%2C546&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/21.png?resize=422%2C300&amp;ssl=1 422w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the precise nature of their task, to shepherd myrphon (penguin-gryphon) fledglings through a cave that\u2019s been made treacherous via magical intervention, reflects the philosophy and danger of magic. This task must be completed because mages of prior eras made this crucial passage treacherous to its natural inhabitants &#8211; because they broke the fundamental rules of magic, and stirred repercussions that would echo across time.

It is a familiar tale told with utmost visual splendor: the articulation of an idea\u2019s inherent worth versus the care of its execution in action. These fables illustrate Richeh\u2019s limitations in contrast, emphasizing how careful study of all the masters who came before you will lend far more beauty and meaning to your work than simply hewing to the immediate thoughts and limitations of your untrained mind. Witch Hat Atelier is brimming with thoughtful ideas, but it would not be half of the story it is, nor would those ideas be so well-honed and neatly integrated into its ongoing drama, if Shirahama were not such a diligent student of traditional tapestries, gifted comic panelists, and fantasy literature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"37901\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/23-12\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23.png?fit=704%2C917&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"704,917\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23.png?fit=704%2C917&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23.png?fit=584%2C761&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37901\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23.png?resize=584%2C761\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23.png?w=704&amp;ssl=1 704w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/23.png?resize=230%2C300&amp;ssl=1 230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The importance of these fundamental studies is swiftly made clear on the test\u2019s winding snake path, as Agate employs a simple water spell to reveal which of the serpent\u2019s tiles have maintained their gravity runes. Rather than astonishing acts of world-reorienting spellcasting, Agate\u2019s solution here came from mastery of the basics combined with logical thinking, thereby using a simple, practical spell for a totally unexpected purpose. This is one of the fruits of mastery outside of your immediate preferences: equipped with all of the tools that could theoretically be at your disposal, you are far more likely to find solutions to emergent problems than if you simply stuck to the tools that feel comfortable to you. This is why writers are always seeking out new words and stories, why artists seek out new tools and styles, why anyone who seeks true mastery is forever restless, forever on the hunt for what new gifts might further burnish their ever-imperfect abilities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Richeh, of course, chafes at the thought of being asked to complete this task \u201cthe one correct way.\u201d And we see that, beyond her brother\u2019s influence, her previous master was quick to shame her for her allegedly \u201cuseless\u201d spells. Just as a great teacher can help foster our curiosity regarding the path to mastery, and quell our inherent shame at not doing things correctly the first time, so too can a terrible master burn out our curiosity and passion, making the natural process of discovery into the traversal of a field replete with pitfalls. If our only guidance is punishment, why would we ever seek new and uncertain horizons? So it goes for their new compatriot Ueini, who is so terrified of displeasing his tyrannical master that he fears any experimentation beyond the expected, allegedly \u201ccorrect\u201d answers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" data-attachment-id=\"37902\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/wrongeverytime.com\/2023\/10\/16\/the-liberation-of-study-in-witch-hat-atelier\/26-8\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/26.png?fit=869%2C383&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"869,383\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Witch Hat Atelier\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/26.png?fit=869%2C383&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/26.png?fit=584%2C257&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-37902\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/26.png?resize=584%2C257\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/26.png?w=869&amp;ssl=1 869w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/26.png?resize=768%2C338&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wrongeverytime.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/26.png?resize=500%2C220&amp;ssl=1 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thankfully, neither of these students are so committed to their insular ways that this test is truly beyond them.

With their teacher stolen away and a terrifying opponent pursuing them, Richeh soon feels the full weight of her decisions, the limitations that only studying her own magic have created. If you only study what you want to, you will be caught without a response when unexpected situations develop. Studying broadly might mean learning things you can\u2019t immediately recognize as helpful, but which will nonetheless enrich your overall understanding of your craft, offering you answers to situations you couldn\u2019t have even imagined. To put it simply, studying broadly is investing in the potential variability of your own future.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Ueini is captured and transformed by this reckless mage, Richeh turns to save him, but is held back by Agate. Though Richeh wants nothing more than to help, Agate cannot allow her, and states frankly that because she has only studied what she wanted to study, she lacks the flexibility to assist her friend. At last, what she <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">wants<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to do is now inhibited by her refusal to embrace the practice that did not seem satisfying to her.
