The opening scene of the anime film "The Finale: Sound! Euphonium – Part 1" (original title: "最終楽章 響け！ユーフォニアム") has been released on YouTube. The film premiered in Japanese theaters on April 24, 2026.
The film is the concluding part of the series, based on the third season of the anime series "Sound! Euphonium" from 2024. It was produced by Kyoto Animation, which refined the visual impact of the series for the theatrical version and added numerous new scenes.
The now-released opening sequence shows a newly inserted memory of the protagonist Kumiko Oumae. It depicts her as a student receiving a sheet music score for the piece "Sound! Euphonium" from an older, admired member of the wind orchestra – a key scene that underscores her deep connection to euphonium music. A special highlight for fans is also the recording of a brass band cover of Gen Hoshino's hit "Koi."
Staff and Cast (Selection):
Director: Taichi Ogawa, General Director: Tatsuya Ishihara, Screenplay: Jukki Hanada, Music: Akito Matsuda, Animation Production: Kyoto Animation. Voice Actors: Kumiko Oumae (Tomoyo Kurosawa), Reina Kousaka (Chika Anzai), Hazuki Katou (Ayaka Asai), Sapphire Kawashima (Moe Toyota), as well as Takahiro Sakurai as Taki Tsubasa.
