The anime film "Arpeggio Arpeggio Ars Nova Cadenza" will be released in theaters on October 3, and a special program featuring Mai Fuchigami has begun to be distributed.
Arpeggio of Aoki Steel -Ars Nova-" is an anime work based on "Arpeggio of Aoki Steel," a marine science fiction war story manga serialized in the monthly magazine Young King Hours. The story is set in a world where the sudden appearance of the "Fog Armada," a group of warships from World War II equipped with superweapons that humans could not possess, has taken control of the seas. The main character, a cadet, and his friends fight the "Fog Armada" aboard the I401, a submarine that has joined the human side. The film version will be made in two parts: the first part will be a re-creation of the TV series with new episodes (about 40 minutes long) and a new character, "The Foggy Student Council," and the second part will be a completely new film.
A special program, "Mai Fuchigami's Rapid Senko" (10 episodes), will be distributed this time. This is a program in which Mai Fuchigami, who plays the role of Iona, will act as navigator and report on the behind-the-scenes production. The first episode's guest is director Seiji Kishi, who introduces the highlights of the work. The second installment is scheduled to be distributed on July 20.
