The MAPPA studio released a new illustration by Rie Nishimura for the soccer series DAYS, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2026. The Sound! Euphonium account reminded followers that the film Sound! Euphonium: The Final Part 2 opens on September 11.

Vocaloid P Orangestar, known for summer-themed songs like "Asu no Yozora Shōkaihan" and "Kaisei," has written his first new song in roughly two years for the TV anime "Shunkashūtō Daikōsha Haru no Mai." The anime, based on an original work by Kana Akatsuki of "Violet Evergarden" fame, is set in a world where agents empowered by the gods of the four seasons rotate the seasons. Orangestar's involvement, while seemingly a departure from his summer associations, is framed by the article as a natural fit given his past works' themes of lost time and youth.
