During the 14th “Sakura Taisen Imperial Communication Department’s Broadcast” stream held on June 19, Sega newly announced Shin Sakura Taisen The Stage. First announced at Tokyo Game Show 2019 for March 5 to 8 2020, the show was canceled due to Covid-19. Now, it’s coming back for Winter 2020 in Japan. The stage play’s cast all shared joyful comments on Twitter, which we’ve covered below. Sakura Taisen composer Kohei Tanaka commented on the revival as well during the stream.

Shin Sakura Taisen The Stage‘s cast includes:

On stream, Kohei Tanaka explained how the cast is even better than before. No one knows yet how the Covid-19 situation will evolve. As such, no venue for the screenings was specified as they’re unsure how many fans will be able to gather and watch, but it’ll definitely be a great show. Kohei Tanaka added they don’t know yet if they’ll do the exact same show they were planning for March, or if they’ll add new elements.

Both on Twitter and via a message revealed on the stream, Yuna Sekine (Sakura Amamiya) said she’s incredibly happy the stage play is happening, and thanked the fans who kept showing support on social media. The other actresses all published similar messages on Twitter.

Rina Takahashi (Hatsuho) said she powered up and is incredibly looking forward to it. Similarly to many personalities in Japan, she was particularly active on YouTube these past months to keep in touch with fans. She most notably did a pretty cool cover of Zeta Gundam‘s second opening theme.

Iriya Yūto (Anastasia) said she’s looking forward to meeting the fans this winter.

Yui Kanchiku (Azami) shared photos of the cast together at the rehearsals.

Natsume Oki (Claris) thanked the fans for their support.
