Witch on the Holy Night Film Drops supercell Theme Song
Witch on the Holy Night film features supercell's new theme song, "Yoru to Ao."
Crunchyroll has released a trailer for the Witch on the Holy Night anime film, and it comes with a soundtrack reveal: the theme song is "Yoru to Ao" by supercell, the Tokyo-based producer collective known for their work on The Garden of Words and Your Name. The track pairs with a November 20 Japan premiere that's timed to something bigger — the same day marks the launch of the original visual novel's smartphone version.
The film reunites the voice cast: Haruka Tomatsu, Kana Hanazawa, and Yūsuke Kobayashi return to their roles. Direction comes from Masashi Takeuchi, with ufotable handling script production — the studio behind the Demon Slayer anime, so the technical bar is set high.
Witch on the Holy Night adapts a Type-Moon visual novel, and this film represents the franchise's first major anime adaptation of the property. The timing of the game's mobile launch alongside the film's opening suggests a coordinated push to draw both longtime fans and newcomers into the Mahōtsukai no Yoru universe at once. Whether supercell's theme will stick the landing the way their previous anime work has is the real question — but the trailer's here to let you judge for yourself.
