posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Marvelous' official website for the stage play adaptation of the Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE! anime updated on Thursday with visuals of the Earth Defense Club and Conquest Club cast members in costume in their transformation costumes (although each transformation costume features the actor facing away from the camera).
The cast members of the Earth Defense Club include:
Maasa Igarashi as En Yufuin/Battle Lover Cerulean
Yūki Ochi as Atsushi Kinugawa/Battle Lover Epinard
Shōta Takasaki as Io Naruko/Battle Lover Sulfur
Yoshihiko Aramaki as Ryū Zaō/Battle Lover Vesta
The Conquest Club cast members shown in costume include:
Yū Imari as Ibushi Arima/Chevalier Argent
Sōta Kashiwagi as Akoya Gero/Chevalier Perlite

In addition, the website announced two more cast members who will play original characters. The characters' names have not yet been revealed.
The play will run from March 10-13 at the Zepp Blue Theater Roppongi in Tokyo.
Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Viewster streamed the first anime season this past winter. Funimation describes the story:
Teenage boys are notoriously lazy, and the members of Binan High School's Earth Defense Club are no exception. Their definition of “earth defense” is bumming around all day at the local bathhouse. But when a pink wombat appears out of thin air and begs the boys to help him save the planet, even the idlest high schoolers jump to action. Watch the magical boys transform and save the earth with the power of LOVE!
A second anime season has been green-lit, which will be titled Cute High Earth Defense Club LOVE! LOVE! (Binan Kōkō Chikyū Bōei-bu Love! Love!)
