About the work

This group of girls is part of the massive multimedia universe of the Love Live! franchise. Unlike its predecessors, the idols of Hasu no Sora Academy were primarily born as the protagonists of the successful smartphone video game Link! Like! Love Live!, launched in April 2023. Since their debut, the group has maintained constant activity through live streams, releasing musical singles, and performing in real-life concerts. This movie marks the first time that the story of this specific generation receives a full-length animated film adaptation.

Considering the heavy emotional weight of the last day of school, do you think the musical theme presented in the preview will be used during a final farewell concert or as background music during the diploma ceremony?
