Spotted a news article today that publisher Mag Garden had apparently posted a teaser page online which announced that production of a new “Aria” anime has been green-lit, although the website has since been removed.
Part of the “Ao no Curtain Call” project which celebrates 10 years since the first Aria season aired, this new anime would be titled “Aria the Avvenire”.
(Avvenire means future in Italian and is coincidentally also the title of Kozue Amano’s “Aria The Illustration: Avvenire” artbook.)
The page offered other details such as Junichi Sato, who directed the previous “Aria” series and the “Tamayura” anime, returning to direct this new anime, or also that most voice actresses will reprise their roles.
As if the news of a new Aria anime wasn’t exiting enough, they apparently also announced that the three Aria anime seasons would receive a Blu-ray release in Japan, which leads me to anxiously hope that The Right Stuff International who licensed and released Aria on DVD, will decide to release the series in Blu-ray format as well.
