Nakamura Hak Gets Third Ending Theme for Witch Hat Atelier
It is unusual for a single artist to provide three different ending themes for one cour of an anime, and the author's direct involvement in the jacket art ties the music more closely to the source material.

Nakamura Hak's unreleased song "Hikari" has been confirmed as the third ending theme for the TV anime Witch Hat Atelier. Original author Kamome Shirahama drew a new illustration inspired by all three ending songs, which will also serve as the jacket for Nakamura's debut CD single releasing June 10.
Nakamura Hak's "Yoru ni Ukabu" aired as the second ending theme in episodes 3 and 5 of Witch Hat Atelier, with digital distribution starting May 6. The third song, "Hikari," was previously unreleased. All three tracks will appear on Nakamura's debut CD single Tada Utsukushii Noroi, out June 10, alongside their anime-versions. The single contains six tracks total.
Kamome Shirahama, the original manga author, drew a monochrome illustration of protagonist Coco in three different states, each corresponding to one of the three songs. The illustration will be used as the single's jacket art. Nakamura records all songs in one take with only vocals and acoustic guitar, meaning the shorter anime versions are separate performances, not edits of the full-length recordings.
