“Show by Rock!!” Anime Sequel Greenlit; Short Anime Also Announced

Production has been greenlit on a sequel to the TV anime Show by Rock!!, a character project by Sanrio targeted more toward adults that began in 2013. A variety of content has been developed from the project beginning with a smartphone app and also including a manga, stage play, and more. Especially popular among them is the TV anime that began this April and played a large role in increasing familiarity of the series and its characters due to its popularity. The announced sequel is a surprise fans will no doubt be happy about.

This news was announced on Nov. 8 at an event held by Studio Coast in Shin-Kiba, Tokyo. During a live performance fans were treated to the announcement along with a new visual. The visual includes the catchphrase “I believe. In music, in my friends, and in the future.” This is accompanied by main character Cyan looking over her shoulder in a pose as if she’s just made some kind of important decision. We get the feeling a new story is about to begin.

In season 1, an ordinary, shy high school girl is pulled into the music game Show by Rock!! and debuts as Cyan in the girls band Plasmagica. The story follows her as she grows little by little. Though the broadcast dates of the sequel are still unknown, there are upcoming developments to look forward to.

It was also revealed at the event that a short anime is being produced and will be televised ahead of the sequel. It will feature bands Plasmagica and Shingan Crimsonz and its content will allow viewers to carefreely enjoy the world of Show by Rock!!. It’s a given for the sequel, but it looks like this short anime will be one to keep your eyes on too. Season 1 of the anime is also currently being rebroadcast on Tokyo MX.
