    To be sequel to original series. Kinema Citrus to produce animation again. I thought the original show had already wrapped up its story pretty nicely, so hopefully they've thought the sequel through.

      It seems to be ... idols with swords? What are they fighting against? Is there a side game attached like Uma Musume?

        The original show was about a group of students who belong to what can only be described as a kind of magical realism underground fight club. They fight each other on an underground stage to settle conflicts and fulfil their wishes, but the fights are also musicals like in a revue.

        It's pretty close to Revolutionary Girl Utena in that the whole thing has a really dream-like tone to it.

        There was apparently also a mobile game too, but it came after the TV series, so I assume it's based on it.
