New Madoka Magica: Walpurgis no Kaiten Trailer Focuses on Homura

A new trailer for Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Walpurgis no Kaiten movie is now available via YouTube. The movie will air some time in Winter 2024 in Japan and there is no information yet as to whether there will be a Western release. Since the previous movies appeared outside of Japan, there’s a high chance that other territories will be able to watch the movie either online or in theaters.

You can watch the trailer for the Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Walpurgis no Kaiten movie here:

The trailer is a minute and a half long. It starts with Homura’s past and her descent into darkness before focusing on the other magical girls. It appears to take place in the new version of the world that Homura created at the end of Rebellion. However, since the trailer almost completely focuses on Homura, it’s unclear if she will be a straight protagonist, a villain protagonist, or a straight villain in the film.

Aniplex and Shaft first announced the movie as part of the Madoka Magica franchise’s 10th anniversary. News of it first appeared in 2021. At the time though, there was not a lot of information on it outside of the fact that the movie will be a sequel to Rebellion.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Walpurgis no Kaiten will air in Japan some time in Winter 2024. You can watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica via streaming services such as Crunchyroll.
