Bandai Visual began streaming the first promotional video on Friday for Concrete Revolutio: Chōjin Gensō The Last Song, the second season of the Concrete Revolutio television anime series.

The video reveals that the anime will premiere on Tokyo MX and KBS Kyoto on April 3 at 11:00 p.m. The anime will also air on Sun TV and on BS11. The anime's official website also revealed the show's key visual on Friday.

Bandai Visual also streamed a five-minute "super explanation" video on Friday. The video features voice actress Sumire Uesaka (voice of Kikko Hoshino) explaining the plot of the show's first season.

Yohske Yamamoto feat. Nami Tamaki will perform the show's ending theme song "ALL-WAYS." Lantis is also streaming a 15-second video previewing the song. The CD single will ship on May 25.

Additionally, Bandai Visual is streaming an announcement video for a "Chōjin Gensō Fes" event on April 17. Voice actors Kaito Ishikawa, Sumire Uesaka, Aki Toyosaki, and Eriko Nakamura will attend the event, as well theme song and insert song artists ZAQ, Yohske Yamamoto, Makoto Kawamoto, Toru Hidaka, Shokichi Ishida, and Angel Stars.

The official website also revealed on Friday that voice actor Kouichi Yamadera will voice a role in the show's 14th episode (first episode of the second season).

ZAQ is returning from the show's first season to perform the second season's ending theme song.

The first series premiered in Japan on October 4. Anime Consortium Japan is co-producing the anime, and it also streamed the first anime season on Daisuki as it aired in Japan. FUNimation Entertainment also streamed the season.

Funimation describes the story:

What if superhumans were real? Even better, what if every fabled superhuman existed at the same time, in the same place? Titans from outer space, life forms from a mystical world, phantoms and goblins from ancient times, cyborgs created by scientists, relics that rose out of the ruins of ancient civilizations. In another Japan, it's not just a question of “what if”—it's a reality. Some of the superhumans Chōose to keep their identities a secret, while others bask in their superhuman fame. Jiro Hitoyoshi, member of the Superhuman Bureau, keeps track of their doings.

The anime reunites the main staff from Fullmetal Alchemist. Seiji Mizushima (Fullmetal Alchemist, Un-Go, Mobile Suit Gundam 00, Hanamaru Kindergarten) is directing the series at BONES, and Shō Aikawa (Fullmetal Alchemist, Un-Go, Ghost Slayers Ayashi, Martian Successor Nadesico) is in charge of series composition. Masafumi Mima (Attack on Titan, Paprika) is serving as sound director. Kazuki Nakashima (Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill, live-action Terraformars) is joining Gen Urobuchi and Masaki Tsuji on writing scripts for the second season.
