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.

I'm really hyped, Mahoyo is a great story and I believe that Ufotable can do it justice!

Knew this would happen some day. I would've loved if it was a show instead but it's possible to make a satisfying movie as well. Hopefully I actually get to read this before the movie comes out.

I meant soft spin-off prequel

Judging by how they did fate/zero before fate/Stay Night, this will probably also follow a similar format doing the prologue 2 years before the anime adaptation for tsukihime
uhh what? Mahoyo isn't a prologue to tsukihime.Judging by how they did fate/zero before fate/Stay Night, this will probably also follow a similar format doing the prologue 2 years before the anime adaptation for tsukihime

I'll always welcome more Type Moon series from Ufotable so I'm excited....All we need now though is a Tsukihime remake and I'm surprised that didn't do that next now that HF is done

@Desolated Well, in the Gates, the differences were mainly in the details and it was all within the framework of one work.
For me personally, Zero has always been a prequel to UBW, given that the prequel and adaptation of Rin's route were done in the same style.

same reason why nasu made fate zero an alternate universe of FSN. it's just nasu splitting worlds from each other for ''lore consistency'' sake despite them being originally a part of the same world .
regardless, they are still technically the same world/setting just divergent from each other
RobertBobert said:
But what's the point? Or is Nasu just combining works with conflicting settings in this way?

Also while you're at it, is it true that the wielder of the first magic was someone who's born in the day BC turns to AD? I think I've read that before somewhere.

I am talking about Zelretch vs Crimson Moon.
One difference we know of between the two worlds is that he is turned into a DA by Crimson Moon in Tsukihime worlds while in Fate worlds he becomes immortal through other means.
The DAA existed before Roa did anything so it cant be that since the DAA as a organization/classification existed long before he did anything. Arcueid and Roa didnt even exist back in 300 AD. Lore.
Think of it like Marvel's or DC's different Earth's or universes.
Why dont the Avengers exist in X series/timeline? Why is Bruce Wayne's parents alive? That kind of thing.
Ah right. And how it makes the human history got weaker I assume is because Zelretch is the wielder of Second Magic, and by him becoming a DAA it turned the DAs, which is considered as antagonistic force for humanity stronger and humanity, losing the second magic wielder, weaker?I am talking about Zelretch vs Crimson Moon.

We really dont know. DAA are a group but they dont really work together. We dont know what changes Zelretch's condition creates.
It could even be something completely different from that. I only mention it because Crimson Moon is involved.
The correct line is "Born the night before BC turned AD". Does that mean it is Jesus? Probably. Or since the calendar was changed way later Nasu just means this and not the actual birth of Christ.

I assume this is whether Arcueid meets Roa or not? That makes human history has more/less power and therefore in conclusion, affects the ability to summon servants (which is possible in Fate timeline but not in Tsukihime or KnK one)?

Well no, originally Tsukihime's end was around FSN's beginning. The Remake takes place in the 2010s and so does Fate/ Grand Order, and Fate/Strange Fake(probably).
The problem starts from many years ago, possibly during 300 AD since that year has a very notable difference between the two worlds.

Have you seen uh Steins;Gate? Basically just like whether Mayushii pulls a Metal Upa or not turns it into two different timelines (in which one of them has a large scale war, and the others don't). Or whether Okarin use the time machine to alter Ruka's sex, etc.otto-rimuru said:
long story short is that they were originally a part of the same world but got retconned into different worlds due to lore inconsistencies. think of Fate zero being an alternate universe of FSN due to lore incosnsitency between the two even tho they were considered same world before nasu
now, it's split into three type of worlds (technically 2)
tsuki worlds: servants cannot be summoned and DAA (dead apostle ancestors) organization doesn't exist
fate worlds: servants can be summoned and the DAA organization exists
mixed worlds: fate extra, fate strange fake. both exist
this has to do with some lore tdibits about the human order being either strong (1) or weakened (2) or in the case of the last one, an anamoly, which is inconsequential to the question at hand.
Tsuki used to exist in the same world as fate (cuz that's when FSN was released), then it became its own world, yet both took place around in the same time period (2004) and now with the ''remake'' of tsuki out if the routine is still the same then it take place in 2021.
there you go.
as for mahoyo, it's deliberately ambigious so it can be both a prequel to KNK and Tsuki. so till part 2 of the VN comes out and clarify things (or not), you can think of it as a prequel for both

This one is affects how you can summon servants and have a holy grail war in Fate timeline, and that you can't in Tsukihime and Kara no Kyoukai timeline.
