The anime Girls Band Cry by Toei Animation recently unveiled several new elements on its official website. These include two new music videos and a key visual. Additionally, information about the main cast and the staff involved in the project has been provided.

The music videos—"Nameless Name" and "No Rhyme nor Reason"—are performed by the band Togenashi Togeari, which appears in the anime's story. These songs offer a glimpse into the potential musical tone and narrative of the series, as music often plays a crucial role in the anime's storytelling.





The announced cast features a range of characters, each with their own traits and backgrounds. Nina Iseri, the introverted one who blends well into her surroundings, is played by Rina. Yuri voices Momoka Kawaragi, a spirited street musician. Subaru Awa, a determined art student, is brought to life by Mirei, while Natsu lends her voice to Tomo Ebizuka, an independent heiress living in a shared house. Finally, Syuri takes on the role of Rupa, a talented performer of mixed heritage.

The director's chair for Girls Band Cry is occupied by Kazuo Sakai, while Nari Teshima handles character design. CGI direction is managed by Mari Kondō and Jae Hoon Jung, and Kenji Tamai is responsible for the music composition.

According to Toei Animation, the anime follows the lives of various girls, each grappling with personal struggles. One character has dropped out of high school and works in Tokyo while preparing for university. Another struggles with being abandoned by her parents and tries to make ends meet with part-time jobs in the city. These stories capture a world that is often disappointing, where things don’t always go as planned, and yet the characters search for a place to belong—that’s why they sing.
