Another accidental “leak” for type moon fans this time.

Japanese movie site “Eiga. com” lists ufotable’s Mahoutsukai no Yoru (Mahoyo: Witch on the Holy Night) film with a release date of Jan 30 2026

There was other leak some days after infinity castle 1 that some team that worked on it had been moved to work on mahoyo, so it may be true, still we are talking about leaks, so we can't trust entirely, let's wait to the new year's stream and see, still this is kinda exciting at this point, if they are doing that quality on DS I can't wait to see the product to the franchise that made them what is now.

Stay safe, just a little bit longer boys, our time is comming

@Blueckot I haven't seen that leak, but I wanted to clarify one thing. Ufotable doesn't have multiple teams, they have just one big team of around 250 full time in-house employees. Of course not 100% of the staff works on everything, especially directors, but most of them do. But even the Infinity Castle movie, which had almost 100% working on it, had people "missing", like Masaru Takenaka, who hasn't made an appearance since 2021, because he is most likely the director of Mahoyo, or Makoto Nakamura, one of their best animators, or Chinatsu Mizushima, or Atsushi Tanaka.

So basically, for some reason Mahoyo is being produced at very slow pace, on parallel with Kimetsu no Yaiba since the second half of 2023 (pre-production began in 2021), with only 5% of the team or so, and those staff members rotate. And what most likely happened is that they are finally putting most of the staff on Mahoyo to finish it and release it in Winter now that the first Infinity Castle movie is done. The date checks out because they like to release movies in the same station in which the story takes place. So, if the leak is true, then we'll see a Type-Moon Times stream sooner than later, probably next month.

Patience boys, we'll get it, and the catharsis will be glorious.

I'm tired of Ufotable milking Demon Slayer. They've totally forgotten about anything else, including Mahoyo.
I'm afraid that their next cow will be Genshin and they may neglect Mahoyo even more because Type Moon isn't as profitable as those two.
If Mahoyo does release in a year, it may not get the best writing (adaptation) and visuals.
The golden age of Ufotable is over. I highly doubt we'll see that mix of great visuals and music with equally good stories in a while. They've now learnt how to milk generic mainstream content.

@SoloNecromancer Demon Slayer may have awesome music and visuals, but it lacks the depth and complexity of other Ufotable adaptations.
Fate Zero, The Garden of Sinners, God Eater and the Tales Series have better writings.
Demon Slayer is probably at the same writing level of Touken Ranbu, which lacks an actual story. But this is probably because of DMM Games asking for adaptations not to follow a story that may contradict the game's lore.
I haven't had the chance to read the VN, but Mahotsukai no Yoru is said to have a great character development. And I'm sure it's true. It involves characters from Tsukihime and The Garden of Sinners who have interesting developments and backstories in their source stories.

@BLU3B1RD I don't think the golden age of ufo is over or near by, if you say "this other project is from the studio that animated Demon Slayer" to someone who knows that definetly going to make some expectatives about the animation, they can't leave theyre reputation go down, and the music is also someone else's work, in case of DS Kajiura had a name already, for some reason Fukasawa hasn't been confirmed yet to be in charge of Mahoyo, but they hav a lot of talented mucisian contacts, so don't worry, that part of the traitment is going to be fine. What worries me is the adaptation in just a trilogy, the time is too short in my opinion.

A real shame it's being delayed this long, but money is money I guess, if the DS also pays the eventual release of Mahoyo I guess I can take it.

- Stay safe
