Princession Orchestra’s Ongoing Journey
Princession Orchestra, an original magical girl and music-themed anime, premiered on April 6, 2025, broadcasting on TV Tokyo and its affiliates. The series is planned for an extensive run of four consecutive cours, spanning approximately a year.
A World of Music and Magic
The anime’s narrative is set in Alicepia, a mystical country that has existed since ancient times. The inhabitants, known as Alicepians, are generally fun-loving until mysterious monsters called Jamaock appear, threatening their peace. The story centers on a trio of “princesses” who rise to protect Alicepia, wielding the power of music and song in their hearts against these threats. The anime distinguishes itself by featuring voice cast members singing new renditions of songs within battle sequences, rather than relying on pre-recorded tracks.
Core Cast and Production Team
The series is produced by Silver Link, with an original concept by Akifumi Kaneko and Noriyasu Agematsu, the creative minds behind Senki Zesshō Symphogear. Shin Oonuma directs the anime, with Manta Aisora serving as the main writer and series composer. Yukiko Akiyama is responsible for the animation character designs, based on original designs by Mari Shimazaki, and Elements Garden composes the music.
The previously announced main cast includes Azusa Aoi as Minamo Sorano/Princess Ripple, Yuri Fujimoto as Kagari Shirube/Princess Zeal, and Azusa Tachibana as Nagase Ichijō/Princess Meteor. Other notable cast members include Hiro Shimono as Nabiiyu, Chiaki Kobayashi as Callisto, Shōya Chiba as Giita, Junya Enoki as Besu, Shunsuke Takeuchi as Doran, Nana Mizuki as the Red Queen, and Kana Hanazawa as the White Queen. The addition of Akari Kito and Miku Itō as the Flower Knights signals an expansion of this vibrant cast as the series continues its magical musical journey.
