Studio ufotable has officially announced that the anime film adaptation of the TYPE-MOON visual novel Witch on the Holy Night is scheduled for a 2026 premiere.

This announcement was shared via the official Witch on the Holy Night X account on March 21, 2026, generating significant anticipation for the project.

Set in the late 1980s, the narrative captures the essence of a fading era characterized by beauty and vigor.

The plot follows a young boy who moves to a city where he narrowly misses encountering two witches who are living hidden lives.

While the boy attempts to maintain a completely ordinary existence, one witch carries herself with gallant pride, and the other lives a quiet, secluded life.

The story explores the starlit paths of these three disparate individuals and the unexpected circumstances that bring them together.

Studio ufotable, known for high-quality animation, also highlighted the project in a recent reel that included updates on other major titles like Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba and Genshin Impact.

This film adaptation aims to bring the beloved source material to a wider audience while maintaining the unique atmosphere of the original visual novel.
