ufotable has released the final trailer for Witch on the Holy Night (*Mahōtsukai no Yoru*), and it brings the theme song with it: "Yoru to Ao" ("Night and Blue") by supercell. The film opens in Japan on November 20, 2026, and Crunchyroll and Sony Pictures Entertainment bring it to the US and Canada on January 29, 2027.

The final trailer came with the full staff list. Per ANN and MAL:
- Director: Masashi Takeuchi
- Chief director: Hikaru Kondo
- Character design: Moe Tsuzuki
- Chief animation director: Masato Nagamori
- Art director: Koji Eto
- Compositing director of photography: Yuichi Terao
- 3D director: Gōchū Satō

- Screenplay: ufotable
The cast is unchanged: Haruka Tomatsu as Aoko Aozaki, Kana Hanazawa as Alice Kuonji and Yūsuke Kobayashi as Soujyuro Shizuki.
Why the song matters
"Yoru to Ao" gives supercell the closing slot on the film that adapts Kinoko Nasu's 2012 visual novel, the prequel to Tsukihime that stars Aoko Aozaki, the sorceress Tsukihime fans know as "Miss Blue." ufotable is the studio behind Fate/Zero and Demon Slayer, so the visual bar is set. Our Witch on the Holy Night release date and where-to-watch guide has the full rundown, the Fate watch order maps the rest of the Nasuverse, and the best ufotable anime ranking shows where the studio's past work lands. You can follow the film on its SenpaiRanks page; its board opens when it releases.
