The Zozah Calendar is an organized way of viewing important dates within the world of Witch Hat Atelier, including character birthdays and special events. In-series, a calendar of this twelve-month format has not been referenced. Instead, there have been brief mentions to overall seasons, like Harvest and Snowfall. However, numerous main characters have been given specific birthdates, so there may be a similar system in place.
Seasons[edit]
- Snowend might be the name for the spring season.[1]
- (no information of the summer season yet)
- Passage Stars is marked by a meteor shower and signifies the beginning of the Harvest season.[2][3] This also marks the start of Golden Eve, a festival that lasts about a month.[4]
- Silver Eve is a large festival directly after Golden Eve that also heralds the beginning of Snowfall, the winter season.[3]
