“Your life is nothing but unknowns. But if one were to study and become wise, then one will always know the best course of action to take…” Science Saru in Japan has debuted another trailer for the animated movie titled Jaadugar: A Witch in Mongolia being directed by animation filmmaker Abel Gongora (of Dan Da Dan: Evil Eye and “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off“). Another new animation project from the iconic studio Science Saru (of Inu-Oh, The Colors Within, Ride Your Wave) – watch the first teaser from a few months ago. This is the story of one witch who toyed with a vast continent. The film is set for a TV debut in Japan in July 2026 – not expected to show in theaters anywhere. Set in the 13th century during the reign of Emperor Genghis Khan and his march through the Mongolian Empire – one girl messes with his plans in Iran after becoming educated by scholars. This is the story of Jaadugar, the “witch in Mongolia”. When he arrives “her quiet days come to an end, and the wheels of fate begin to turn.” The original Japanese voice cast is Akira Sekine as Sitara, Houko Kuwashima, Jun Saito, Ryota Suzuki, Miyu Irino – as heard in this trailer below. Good to finally see more footage from this project, hopefully it gets a US release soon as well. // Continue Reading ›
