The Uta no Prince-sama multimedia franchise is getting a live animation film titled Uta no☆Prince-sama♪ Maji Love ST☆RISH Tours.
It is set to premiere in Japan on Sept. 2, 2022. As with the TV anime, the film will be animated by A-1 Pictures.
The trailer below features the members of ST☆RISH drawn as anime but performing as if it were a live concert to give a realistic concert experience (hence the term "live animation").
