2 entirely new films are opening in the Hibike! Euphonium series in 2018, but before that, an online announcement video for the film Hibike! Euphonium the Movie ~Todoketai Melody~ was released!
Hibike! Euphonium is a Kyoto Animation anime following high school girls who have been swept away by wind instruments. ~Todoketai Melody~, which is set to premiere Sept. 30, will be directed by Ogawa Taichi. Looking back on the second season of the anime, it’s framed around protagonist Oumae Kumiko “inheriting” the wishes of senior Tanaka Asuka.
Despite less than 2 minutes long, the newly released video is thoroughly packed with Kumiko and Asuka. It will have fans excited again to see how the relationship between this pair evolves and develops as they come to understand one another!
There will also be a commemorative theater greeting tour beginning on Sept. 30, followed by repeat appearances on Oct. 1, 7, and 8. The main cast will make appearances including Kurosawa Tomoyo (Kumiko), as well as director Ogawa. Details about getting tickets will be posted on the official site on Sept. 15.
