A new trailer for Witch on the Holy Night, based on the visual novel of the same name has arrived... and it's delightfully dark.
In the brief clip, which can be viewed below, Aoko (voiced by Haruka Tomatsu) uses her powers to cast an explosive beam of light that takes me all the way back to the starry magic of Sailor Moon. The movie is set to premiere in Japan on November 20, but is rumored to make its streaming debut on Crunchyroll at a later date.
Per Crunchyroll, the official synopsis is as follows: "In the mansion on the hill, there lived two witches... It is the late 1980... the twilight of an era of beauty and vigor. A boy moves to the city, barely missing two witches living in modern times. The boy leads a completely ordinary life. She carries herself with gallant pride. The girl lives a sleepy, hidden life. Each walks a starlit path. One would never expect their paths to cross. The story of how these three disparate people came together is soon to be told."
The visual novel was first released for Windows back in 2012, and follows the story of three people: a young sorceress, a natural-born witch, and a regular man who all come to live at the same mansion. An anime film based on the game was announced back in 2021, with the original voice cast set to return.
