Love Live! Sunshine!! – the continuation of Love Live! School Idol Project – will be turned into an animated series for the 2016 TV summer season in Japan.

According to Anime News Network, the anime adaptation of Love Live! Sunshine!! was announced during a live-streamed event on Niconico. Following the anime announcement, the second single featuring the new animated idols – with You Watanabe performing as the center, as voted by fans – will debut on April 22nd.

The first music video performed by new Love Live! idol group Aqours was officially uploaded by Lantis. “Kimi no Kokoro wa Kagayaiteru kai?” went on sale last year in Japan on October 7th.

Anime streaming service Crunchyroll previously simulcasted the first and second season of Love Live! School Idol Project. It’s safe to assume Crunchyroll will do the same for the new series.

NIS America, the North American anime distributor of Love Live! School Idol Project, will release an English subbed and dubbed DVD and Blu-ray collection of the series in February.
