The Irregular at Magic High School: LiSA Returns for Yotsuba Inheritance Arc
The latest trailer and third key visual for the much-awaited movie version of The Irregular at Magic High School: Yotsuba Inheritance Arc have finally been released. Along with this big reveal, it has been confirmed that the theme song for the film will be "YES," performed by the iconic singer LiSA. This news has already created quite a buzz among fans who are eagerly waiting for the next chapter of this magical saga.
For those who need a quick refresher, The Irregular at Magic High School basically follows the life of Tatsuya Shiba and his younger sister Miyuki Shiba. Tatsuya is often seen as an "inferior" student at the First High School due to certain defects in his magical abilities, while Miyuki is the absolute star student. However, as the story unfolds, we realize that the Irregular at Magic High School has a lot more going on beneath the surface, especially regarding Tatsuya's hidden powers.
What to Expect in the Yotsuba Succession Edition
In this upcoming movie, titled The Irregular at Magic High School: Yotsuba Succession Edition, the plot kicks off when the siblings receive an invitation to the "Keishun-kai." This is a very important gathering where the next head of the powerful Yotsuba family will be nominated. The new key visual is really impressive, showing Miyuki leaning on Tatsuya, with a catchphrase about the "strongest" truth finally being revealed. It seems like we are going to get some deep family lore this time around.
This film marks LiSA's third time collaborating with the franchise. She previously gave us the banger "Rising Hope" for the first season and "Shouted Serenade" for the third season. Some snippets of the new song "YES" can be heard in the preview, and LiSA even shared some heartfelt comments about returning to the series. Her voice has always perfectly matched the high-energy vibe of the show.
Event Details and Special Bonuses
If you are lucky enough to be in Tokyo, a special screening of the completed work will happen on April 28th at Wald 9 in Shinjuku. Saori Hayami, the voice behind Miyuki Shiba, will be there along with director Jimmy Stone to interact with the audience. Also, the second "Mubichike" card with special benefits is dropping on April 3rd, featuring a cool 3-sided panoramic card design.
The Irregular at Magic High School: Yotsuba Inheritance is officially set for release on May 8th. To make things even better for the early birds, the production team will be giving out four original novels written by Tsutomu Sajima as a visitor bonus during the first four weeks of the screening.
