Witch Hat Atelier (2026) s01e07 Episode Script

Hold on tight to your load!
Of course.
Witch!
The bridge is under that tree!
Please take me with you.
I know I can help. I promise.
Agott,
this isn't like the usual assignments.
There are plenty
of ordinary people around.
You haven't even taken the second exam
that allows you to use magic
in front of them.
So for now--
If not now, then when?!
I've been practicing on my own too.
So I can use magic in front of people.
I've been preparing for the exam
for a long time now.
Shouldn't the master give an apprentice
more chances to gain experience?
Even still…
Hurry, please!
We need to get back at once!
I'll go on ahead.
I'll set up a window-way
on the other side.
You get the medicine
and contraption ready.
I'll take Agott with me.
I'll go grab my cloak and hat.
- Right.
- Right.
We're coming too!
Don't give me that look.
Some things you only understand
when you see reality.
I'm worried.
Especially about Agott.
She's too focused on the frustration
of what she can't do
than the joy of what she can.
Being inexperienced isn't a sin.
In her rush to improve,
I hope she doesn't lose her footing.
The footing is unstable.
I see it! That's it!
MAGIC FOR SOMEONE
That's…
A witch!
Thank goodness. We're safe now.
Hey! A witch is here!
Agott.
You know how to use this, right?
Use that to dry everyone's clothes.
Once you're done, stand by.
Am I just using this contraption?
- There's nothing else?
- That's all.
What else is there?
Too easy? Not challenging enough?
It seems Qifrey is right to worry.
Agott,
you're rushing.
If you want to prove yourself,
there are other places for that.
But if you want to help here and now,
think carefully about why you use magic.
Treating me like a useless child again.
No matter how hard I work,
it means nothing if I can't show results.
I need to prove to that person
as soon as possible
that I'm a witch
with more value than this.
Amazing!
Would you look at that?!
He's splitting the river with a sword!
Hey, back up! The ledge is dangerous!
Olruggio! How many in total?
Two! I'm bringing in the first one now!
This is pretty rough.
This is why I hate water.
Hang on!
I'll try to be quick!
Okay!
- You're good!
- Got it!
We did it.
Everyone's safe.
Nice work.
Custas!
Dagda!
I'm sorry.
I tried to protect your cargo, but…
It's fine.
As long as you're okay.
Thank you very much.
No, I'm glad we made it in time.
My apprentices have the medicine.
They'll treat your injuries there…
Wow!
- That's insane.
- So cool!
I'm just a bit curious is all.
This is the absolute best!
Master Qifrey, what is this?
This is the Raincleaver.
Every pattern carved into the blade
is a seal.
Even small seals,
if you gather enough of them,
can split open the sea.
Master Qifrey, can I hold it for a second?
Nope.
Magic cast on weapons
needs to be handled with caution.
It's dangerous,
so I can't let you guys touch it yet.
I'll go check upstream, just in case.
Then I'll go check the damage downstream.
Tetia, come with me.
Okay!
- Richeh, you're with me.
- Got it.
You two, hold things down here.
We'll be right back.
Okay!
This is really awkward.
I need to fix Agott's sylph shoes soon
and give them back to her.
All done!
Thanks, little witch.
Little witch?
Little witch, huh?
Oof.
But still,
half the cargo got washed away.
Custas! What are you doing?
Get back here, Custas!
It's fine, Dagda.
The bank dips in here.
Our stuff's caught in it.
I'll grab it and come right back.
You idiot!
If it dips in,
it means it's collapsed once.
Get back here now!
No…
That can't be.
- No… no…
- You can't, Mr. Dagda!
It'll collapse again!
Let me go!
Agott!
- Don't tell me she's buried--
- Agott!
Here! Over here!
Are you okay?! Are you hurt?
I'm fine!
Whoa! But…
Answer me!
It can't be…
What do I do? What…
That's it!
There's a witch here.
- What?
- Please!
You can use magic to save him, right?!
Please, save him!
This is my chance!
I mean, the masters aren't here.
I don't have my sylph shoes
so I can't go get them.
Coco can't move.
It's an emergency situation.
If I save him with my magic,
maybe I can prove myself to that person.
Miss?
Are you going to use magic now?
She's gonna save them with magic.
What kind of magic will we get to see?
Stop that. Custas is in danger.
Now show me, Agott.
Is this the girl's magic?
Compared to the other kids…
Draw like you mean it.
It's not bad, but it's ordinary.
Hard to believe she's her daughter.
Talented children can do more at this age.
Are you even practicing?
She's still just a child…
I had such high hopes for you.
I'm disappointed, Agott.
I won't take you as apprentice.
Our clan has no need for the talentless.
Why am I remembering this?
Why now?
Agott!
What can I do?
Is there something I can do from here?
What can I do
to save Custas?
If you want to help here and now,
think carefully about why you use magic.
Coco! Can you move?!
I need to know the situation!
Well, um,
the bank dips here,
so the current is slower.
I don't think we'll be swept away!
But it's all muddy and slippery.
I don't think I can climb up.
Custas is unconscious.
The rock is too big
for even an adult to move.
And…
We can't let ordinary people
see us drawing magic.
What should I do?
Agott!
What am I supposed to do?
Easthies.
We've got a report
from a village near Kalhn.
They say they saw a massive jet of water
upstream of the Marshwoods.
Let's go.
Even in a situation like this,
she hasn't given up.
If only we could use magic.
Agott!
Hey, do you have it? That thing!
Thing?
You know, um,
Master Olruggio's ring!
Right!
Link Rings!
With this,
if I had some paper,
I could use the levitation spell
I just learned
to lift the rock and save Custas.
But
Coco won't be able to do it.
When a witch draws magic
in front of an Outsider,
they have to completely hide their hands
in their long cloak.
It takes special skill
to draw from fingertip memory alone.
- What's she up to?
- She's still a child, so…
But she's a witch…
Everyone!
I am Qifrey's top apprentice.
The witch Agott Arklaum.
Allow me to show you
the magic granted to me.
All the training I've put in
is so I won't hesitate when it counts.
Coco can't do it,
but I can!
Whoa!
Incredible.
We just practiced levitation
on hard potatos.
I'm sure even I could do this!
It's no use…
I know, because I practiced.
To move a rock this heavy,
a seal drawn in my palm quire
is just not big enough.
Custas!
Huh? I…
Thank goodness! You're awake.
You're…
I'm Coco, a witch.
We fell from above. Do you remember?
So I'm still alive?
I can see a bird of light,
so I thought I'd died.
Oh, that? That's magic!
That's my friend's magic!
Friend's magic…
That's it!
I can only keep their attention
off Coco for so long.
Hurry…
Hey.
That magic's pretty, sure, but is that it?
It's just lighting up the sky.
It's not doing anything!
Can it carry someone and fly?
Or go down and help?
Well…
Forget it. I'll go down and help myself.
If he sees now…
No! You can't go that way!
Will…
will you pull us?
I can't get down.
Oh… all right.
- Are you okay?
- Are you hurt?
You all right?
Stop floating!
Coco, you…
- Thank goodness!
- Hey!
I'm so glad it worked!
I didn't know what to do!
Really and truly…
Thank goodness!
Hey, cut it out.
More importantly,
how did you get out of that situation?
What is this?
Sand?
Yeah.
I remembered how we were just saved
by a spell that breaks rocks!
I see.
With the Wall Breaker Seal,
even a small seal can turn
only the rock into sand
without hurting anyone.
Yes. Back then, I couldn't help at all,
but a friend's magic saved us.
I couldn't have done it alone.
Seeing that glowing bird made me remember.
Thank you for saving me, Agott.
That light signal
was to call the masters back.
Don't think it was just for you.
Besides, I don't recall us
becoming friends--
I'm so glad
we were able to save Custas.
And my mother too, someday…
No.
I will, for sure.
What is this?!
A silver-white capture pennant…
And that crimson cloak and feathered hat…
Don't tell me,
the Knights Moralis!
Which one of you?
Which one used magic?
Was it you?
Or you?
You may be children,
but I won't go easy on you.
Who was it?
Who is the agent of the Brimmed Caps?
What?
We're not! We're not Brimmed Caps!
We didn't use forbidden magic.
We used magic to help people.
In that case,
take a look below.
What?
What is that?
Not just the rock, but the riverbed too.
Everything turned to sand…
Even the river turned into mist.
No way. This…
I didn't draw this.
I see.
So this is your magic.
There's no way an apprentice like you
could wield magic so powerful
without breaking the taboo.
The laws set on
the Day of the Pact are absolute.
You will be punished with oblivion.
