Movie & Sequel Announced for Sound! Euphonium
In September 2013, the renowned Kyoto Animation released Love, Chunibyo & Other Delusions: Rikka Takanashi Revision, a cinematic retelling of their television anime series, before the events were followed by an all new sequel series the following year. Today, the studio has announced that another of their recent successes is about to make a similar leap to the big screen.
This April saw the premiere of Sound! Euphonium, a dramatic slice-of-life series following euphonium-player Kumiko Oumae and the rest of Kitauji High School’s Band Club’s journey to their prefecture’s concert band competition. Today, Kyoto Animation announced at their “KyoAni & Do Fan Kansha Event” that the series will be returning with Sound! Euphonium The Movie: Welcome To The Kitauji High School Concert Band, a theatrical retelling of the 13-episode anime season, which will be followed by an all-new anime sequel.
This will mark the tenth cinematic feature from Kyoto Animation, the studio behind renowned hits such as The DIsappearance Of Haruhi Suzumiya and K-ON! The Movie. Their most recent movie, Beyond The Boundary The Movie: I’ll Be Here – Mirai-Hen was released in April of this year.
Sound! Euphonium is currently available for streaming on Crunchyroll.
