Looking at the cover, does this mean that some of the girls from the previous seasons are gonna be in it?

Yes, the trailer is here:

All characters from old episodes seem to be in this show. Aikatsu Friends will end and this will start from October.

the promotional video says it all.

apparently its about a new idol called Kiseki Lucky (spelling? official Japanese name: 姫石らき) who meet the girls from all Aikatsu seasons, from the original Aikatsu all the way to Aikatsu Friends season 2.
we will get to see Soleil and WM again (!!!). i belive the last time we saw Ichigo and others was during a 2-episode special in Aikatsu Stars season 2 last year.

edit: ninjaed
edit 2: WM doesnt show, but i think /hope they will also make an appearance. the girls from DreAca will probably also make an appearance.

edit3: with some luck, they might add the manga-exclusive idol Mary (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)☆
she did make an appearance in a previous official amv, so it is possible.

You can buy lossless digital music from your favorite Japanese artists on https://ototoy.jp/.
The songs are all DRM-free and you can re-download your purchased albums as you wish.
Show your support to your favorite artist if you can!
ps. if you are looking for Japanese albums, you have to search it in Japanese (not romaji). Just copy and paste the name.

That is amazing for a crossover. Will watch, because I want to see Lily and Aria perform again.

I'm really happy to see my beloved Ichigo again, as well as Yume.

Yet I have honestly no clue how they are going to put this up.
To start a new story for a new character while not putting her up as the front idol on the promo cover already makes me wonder if it's not a short show that's just either a show before another big one (Friends ending, this one comes up, new one comes after like 12-24 weeks) or even something running *along* Friends, but I can honestly not imagine Aikatsu series running *this* good.

But judging by the title of soon upcoming episode 73 (ジュエリングフェスティバル前夜祭 / Jewelling Festival Eve) they're about to end this series in October, which is kinda sad because I feel like they wasted alot of potential good story in the second season.

If you guys haven't already noticed, it's on a different weekly time slot (Saturdays 10:30 am) which is really different from its normal spot (Thursdays 18:25pm). I can't remember Saturday morning being a somewhat good time slot on Japanese TV (Sunday morning is a good one and Thursdays evening too), but maybe it's just speculating that they can't keep up TX's expectations on viewers anymore?

The news Bandai Namco Pictures posted is also kinda starving much information sadly, so we gotta just hype that trailer and speculate about what the series will turn out like.

*me when seeing the promo art and PV*



Boi I am so happy to see the OG girls again, if this is successful they might make another gacha for the franchise and include the Friends girls this time

I had the same thought. It is really hard to picture this cross-over series going past 13 or /maybe/ 26 episodes.

Also, are they bringing the singers back for the old idols? Any new songs? Or will it be like better animated best-hits playlist stuff? Will we see Photo on Stage songs animated (so like, Onegai Venus or RED MOUNTAIN or something?).

I am excited either way for a ton of reasons, but I do have some concerns about the plot of On Parade (or the possible complete lack of one) and the future of the franchise as a whole post-Parade.

I have a bit of mixed feelings about this because one of my favorite parts of the franchise is discovering all the new and awesome characters from each entry and see them grow over time, on the other hand Aikatsu probably has one of my favorite casts as a whole so that's a lot of characters I love coming back (where is Johnny, I need Johnny)

I'm not too big on the design of the new protagonist compared to how great all the others looked, but let's see if her personality is as likeable as all the previous ones and I grow to love her as well anyways.

Guess I'll need to catch up with Friends S2 then.

Will they do Haruka Ruka justice? Will they let Yuri senpai to perform on stage? What about Yuu? Will they finally admit DreAca exists at all? So many tough questions.

So many mixed feelings about this. It kinda annoys me how they leave it hanging how the other characters are doing seeing as we see an idol get to the top but the last top idol wasn't the idol we watched get to the top in the last episode. So curious how they will even speak to one another, or is everyone just at the top together lmao

Oh man, even if the plot turns out to be utter garbage, I will still enjoy the fact that all girls from 3 series are here. Just seeing the MC's hanging out in pv and best girls Lily, Sumire and Yurika being in one place together... oh boy, I can't contain my excitement, October can't come soon enough.

God almighty, its a crossover between the aikatsu shows!
I am beyond hyped! Seeing all generations of Aikatsu together warms the heart so much. I want to see some cool cross-generation performances!

This is definitely something to look forward but too bad quite a few staff that are working on it is from the current Friends series. Honestly, I'm excited but my gut feeling tells me not to keep my hopes up too much.

Really wish it is Nobuyuki and/or Teruo directing this instead. If I remember correctly, those two worked closely on Star and that series was just amazing.

It was only a matter of time until the series released something like this. I'm more hyped for this than I thought I would be. I'm gonna have to catch up soon.

apparently description for this series is...

a girl found bunch of doors, and opening each one takes her to one of the girls in all the previous Aikatsu series (from season 1 to now)

Basically a giant cross-over type of series. (like that Isekai quartet, having bunch of Isekai character all in one comedy series)

___ ___ ___

and I really miss Ichigo, still the best of best girls, the origin of Aikatsu and literal leader/ center of all Aikatsu girls.
