Yesterday, the producers of "Jade Ring" announced that they will produce "The End of Jade Ring" (the title is tentative), and it is currently known that the end will consist of four works, and the first work will be released in cinemas next spring.

The anime "Jade Hibiki" (original name: たまゆら) released four episodes of OVA in 2010, and then began to be serialized in the manga magazine "EDEN", and the first season of the TV anime "Tamabiki -Hitotose-" was broadcast in October 2011, and the second season of the TV anime "Tamabiki -MoreAggressive-" was broadcast in July 2013.

On August 3, 2014, at the event "Tokyo Hibiya Festival 2014", the producers of "Jade Ring" announced the production decision of the new work "Jade Ring", and announced that the "Finale" will consist of four works, the first of which will be released in theaters next spring. In addition, the promotional image of the work was also released at the event. As you can see, the heroines of the story, Kaede Sawata, Kaoru Tsukashi, Rie Okazaki, and Mayon Sakurada each hold their diplomas, and you can't help but feel the theme of the series, "The End".

The production of "The End" means the end of the work.,The story of this series will start from the third year of high school when they are promoted.,The four works correspond to their entire third year of high school.,I have to say that the producer has put a lot of effort into the composition of the work.。 Not only that, but the form in which the work is published is also worth noting. From the release of the OVA, to the broadcast of the TV anime series, to the theater release this time, it makes people feel the growth process of a work, and it also reflects the love of fans for the work.

"Jade Ring" is a healing anime that depicts the lively daily life of young girls, and its popularity has endured since its birth. The work is set in Takehara City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan, and tells the story of Kaede Sawata, a high school student who loves to take pictures, looking for his dreams among the people and things around him, and gradually growing up little by little.

The original creation, animation director, and script coordinator were all handled by Junichi Sato, who is known as the "creator of popular works". In this finale, the most concerning thing is probably the setting of "third year of high school". "The third year of high school" is the last stage of life before entering the society, and what kind of changes or new developments will the dream that Kaede has been pursuing in this stage? It's really exciting!

In order to warm up for the finale, the producers also decided to hold a "Peach Cat Festival" on September 6, 2014 before the release of the new work! "Peach Cat" is the mascot of Takehara City in the work, and as the name suggests, it is a joyous festival around Peach Cat, and this year it will be held for the third time. In addition, in order to commemorate the heroines' promotion to the third year of high school, the producers will also hold an event called "Jade Ring" Advanced Event 2015", the details of which are currently unknown, but it is expected that the producers will release more news about the finale.

Here's what the animators and lead voice actors have to say:

Junichi Sato (Animation Director)

"We hope to see Kaede graduate, the cast voice actors, and all the passionate fans, our wish has come true!" Starting with the OVA in 2010 and going through the two seasons of TV animation in 2011 and 2013, today we finally have the new challenge of being released in theaters, and I believe it is also the best way for you to watch their growth in the future. Please join us in enjoying the movie theater screening and support their growth with enthusiastic eyes, please!

Ayana Takeda (as Kaede Sawado)

Congratulations on the decision to make the finale! I am sincerely happy to be able to return to the world of "Jade Sound" again and play the role of Xiaofeng again! After listening to the ending, Kaede will become a junior in high school, but despite this, I still look forward to seeing Kaede's slow-paced and occasionally aggressive side. In the third year of high school, how will they cherish and spend this important time in their lives? Let's witness their most difficult journey, and let's make an appointment to see you in the cinema next time!

Kana Acheng (as Kaoru Takao)

This event once again made me feel that it was so warm that I couldn't help but cry. Thank you very much for your love! Being able to tell everyone in person about the production decision of "The End of Jade Ring", and then seeing everyone's excitement and joy after hearing the news, was the happiest moment for me. The day when they enter the society and spread their wings is not far away, how will the four of them deal with it? I'm looking forward to it, and you're sure you're just like me, right?

Yuka Iguchi (as Rie Okazaki)

I'm really happy to be able to tell you the news of the decision to complete the production, thank you for your continued support, I really made you wait for a long time! It's a great pleasure for me to feel the change in their mindset as they graduate, and to play the role of me. For the four works of the final chapter, I will definitely perform them well with my heart and heart, with my heart to love...... Let's meet again next spring!

Yuko Itake (as Mayne Sakurada)

If you mention "everyday animation", it will give me the feeling that I have been watching it since I was a child, and the protagonists in the story will never change, and then suddenly one day I will find that I am much older than the protagonists......

However, "Jade Sound" is a story about Xiao Feng's gradual growth, and finally ...... They've also made it to the top grade! Just as there are many changes around us voice actors (laughs), their environment is beginning to change dramatically, and the third year of high school is the last year of preparation for them. To be able to put this important stage of life on the screen and watch their hard journey with everyone, there is no doubt that this work will become a vibrant ending, so stay tuned!

Ai Chino (as Kanae Mitani)

Thank you fans for your love for "Jade Ring", thank you very much! Although the senior sister Jia Miao I played has graduated, I feel very happy to be able to enter the world of "Jade Ring" again and meet you again. I'm really looking forward to seeing the lively four again, and of course, I'm looking forward to the activity of Peach Cat in the finale!
