posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
The official website for Uta no Princess-sama, the female idol counterpart project to the male idol franchise Uta no Prince-sama, announced last Saturday that the project's third anniversary concert has been canceled due to "various circumstances."
The project announced the third anniversary concert in December, but did not announce a date or venue for the concert prior to the cancellation.
The project launched in March 2023, and currently has two trio groups: "Flower Candy" and "Silent Queen." The project's concept is time traveling idols, with the characters attending an all-girls school named St. Saotome Girls' Academy, starting an idol group, and finding themselves suddenly transported through time.
Uta no Prince-sama - Maji Love 1000%, the first anime season adapting Broccoli's Uta no Prince-sama dating simulation video game for female players, premiered in Japan in July 2011. In the first season of the slapstick romantic comedy, the female protagonist goes to a school for the performing arts with young men who are budding idols. The subsequent seasons followed seven of the young men after they form the idol group ST☆RISH. The 13-episode second season, Uta no Prince-sama - Maji Love 2000%, premiered in Japan in April 2013. The 13-episode third season, Utano☆Princesama Revolutions, premiered in April 2015. The 13-episode fourth season, Utano☆Princesama Legend Star, premiered in October 2016.
The Uta no Prince Sama Maji Love Kingdom film then opened in Japan in June 2019. The Utano☆Princesama Maji LOVE ST☆RISH Tours film opened in Japan in September 2022. The film ranked at #7 in its opening weekend.
The franchise also has a one-hour television anime special titled Utano☆Princesama♪ Maji Love ST☆RISH Tours: Tabi no Hajimari (The Start of a Journey) that celebrates the 10th anniversary of the 2011 Uta no Prince-sama - Maji Love 1000% television anime, as well as the release of the film. The special aired in Japan in July 2022.
The Gekijōban Utano☆Princesama♪ TABOO NIGHT XXXX anime film opened in Japan in May 2025.
