Mixed media project IDOLIiSH7 is celebrating its 10th anniversary with the announcement of a fourth season for the IDOLiSH7 TV anime as well as a compilation film for the first season of the series. At the time of this reporting, the release dates for the new season and the film have not yet been revealed.
The IDOLiSH7 franchise kicked off in 2015 with the publication of a rhythm game for Android and iOS devices by Bandai Namco Online, and the series has inspired both a manga adaptation (serialized in Hakusensha’s Hana LaLa Online shojo manga magazine) and several anime adaptations, the most recent being the 2023 theatrical film.
Crunchyroll currently streams the three previous seasons of the IDOLiSH7 TV series as well as the 2023 movie, and describes the story of the series as follows:
A group of aspiring idols gather at Takanashi Productions and are entrusted with the company’s future. The seven men who have just met represent a variety of totally different personalities. However, they each have their own charm and possess unknown potential as idols. Forming a group, they take their first step together as “IDOLiSH7.” Their brilliantly shining dancing forms onstage eventually begin captivating the hearts of the people. In the glorious but sometimes harsh world of idols, they aim for the top with dreams in their hearts!
