Visual Novel 'Mahoutsukai no Yoru' Gets Anime Film
Production company Aniplex announced an anime film adaptation of Type-Moon's Mahoutsukai no Yoru (Witch on the Holy Night) visual novel on Monday. The company also opened an official website, revealing a teaser promo and teaser visual (pictured).
ufotable—the animation studio behind the Kara no Kyoukai (The Garden of Sinners) film series and Fate/stay night Movie: Heaven's Feel trilogy—is producing the film. Type-Moon and Kinoko Nasu (Fate/stay night, Shingetsutan Tsukihime) are credited for the original work.
Synopsis
Set near the end of the Showa period in the late 1980s, an old mansion in Misaki Town is rumored to be the home of a witch.
Aoko abruptly enters the world of magi after her grandfather suddenly decides to have Aoko become the Aozaki family's successor. Since then, Aoko moves into the Kuonji Mansion and begins to learn magecraft from the young magus Alice Kuonji, the rumored witch of the mansion. After witnessing the two using magecraft, Soujuurou Shizuki is also forced to live with them until a rune to remove his memories is discovered. (Source: Type-Moon Fandom Wiki)
Type-Moon released a trial version of the visual novel in December 2011 before publishing the full game in April 2012. Nasu also penned a light novel adaptation in the same month.
