its an utter tragedy that people only get into witch hat atelier for qifrey/orufrey and end up ignoring everything else. when the manga is soooo good and there's more to it than orufrey. the disability rep with tartah? the criticism of the education system with richeh's story? that one chapter that handled the topic of sexual assault in a respectful way? euini's story? the conflict with the brimhats? the four mcs also get pushed aside in favour of the men which is such a shame because coco, agott, tetia, and richeh are wonderful characters. and even the sapphic ship involving the main character (arkco) isn't as popular as orufrey.
like don't get me wrong, orufrey is great, i love my gay witches who cannot apit their feelings out. but then getting attention over everything else in wha, even the mcs, is sadly another case of the female characters being ignored and pushed aside in favour of men, and the sapphic ship involving the main character is sidelined in favour of the popular mlm ship. its sad that this is a problem even in media where girls are the centre.
