Second trailer for the anime film Witch on the Holy Night
The anime film Witch on the Holy Night will arrive in theaters worldwide this January. You can find the new trailer below.
The original story is set in the late 1980s, and centers on protagonist Aoko Aozaki, one of two sister heirs to a long family line of modern MAGES. Although she is disinterested in magic, she is suddenly declared as the heir of their family's magical art, and reluctantly begins her apprenticeship under Alice Kuonji, a young witch who lives in a lonely manor atop a hill. Aoko balances her duties of learning the arcane, while also serving as her school's student council president. She also makes the acquaintance of Sojuro Shizuki, a new transfer student who is unfamiliar with much of the modern world, and contends with the plots of her older sister Tōko Aozaki, who feels that her birthright has been denied.
Witch on the Holy Night (originally Mahotsukai no Yoru) is one of the early collaborations between Kinoko Nasu and artist Takashi Takeuchi - predating the founding of their Type-Moon project. It is a novel conceived in the mid-1990s but not published until 2012, featuring illustrations by Hirokazu Koyama.
The project was adapted into a video game released in Japan for PS4 and Switch in 2021, followed by a worldwide release the next year and a launch on Steam in 2023.
Featuring animation produced by the studio Ufotable, the film was released in Japanese theaters just a few days ago and will arrive in theaters worldwide on January 29, 2027, distributed (outside of Japan) by Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
