A display at the "TAKARA TOMY A.R.T.S Business Conference Spring 2014" event confirmed on Wednesday that the fourth Pretty Rhythm television anime series will premiere on April 5. From right to left in the accompanying photograph, the display shows the heroine Mia from Pretty Rhythm Dear My Future (the second Pretty Rhythm series), Naru from Pretty Rhythm Rainbow Live (the third series), an unnamed new heroine, and Aira from Pretty Rhythm Aurora Dream (the first series).
The first film based on the shōjo anime and arcade game franchise will also open on March 8.
Toy maker Takara Tomy and game developer syn Sophia have been running the franchise continuously since the 2010 arcade game Pretty Rhythm Mini-Skirt. The arcade games are targeted towards elementary school girls. The stories center around aspiring idols who compete in Prism Shows, a new kind of event that combines skating, dancing, singing, and fashion.
The first television anime, Pretty Rhythm Aurora Dream, premiered in 2011. Two more television anime, Pretty Rhythm Dear My Future and Pretty Rhythm Rainbow Live, have since followed.
