The universe of Kaguya-sama: Love is War is about to receive its final chapter, but in a completely new way. In early 2026, the team behind the acclaimed anime announced the production of a film that will serve as the definitive conclusion to the story. Unlike anything we’ve seen before, the feature film will present an original script conceived by the manga’s own creator, Aka Akasaka. The news came right after the conclusion of the TV special “Otona e no Kaidan,” generating great anticipation among the Brazilian anime fan community that follows the romantic battle between the geniuses Kaguya and Miyuki. This announcement is relevant because it promises an ending made especially for the screen, ensuring a new experience even for those who have already read the original work.
The production will not be a simple adaptation of the manga, but rather an unprecedented work. Akasaka and the animation team decided to create this project about four years ago, resulting in a story that, in the author’s words, is “new, but nostalgic.” In this way, the film has the mission of concluding the saga in a satisfying manner, combining what fans love with surprise elements. The series, which began as a manga in 2015 and became an anime in 2019, won over audiences with its intelligent humor and the captivating dynamic between the main characters, who wage a psychological war to see who declares their love first. Therefore, this film represents the chance to see this game of seduction reach its end point, carefully crafted by the entire creative team.
The legacy of a battle of egos
The trajectory of Kaguya-sama: Love is War is long and successful. The story of the two student council presidents, both geniuses but unable to confess their feelings, began to be published in Brazil by Panini. Since then, the anime has released three seasons on Crunchyroll, always with great acceptance, as well as a previous film, “The First Kiss That Never Ends,” which adapted a specific arc. However, the new project differs by being completely original, promising to conclude the main narrative once and for all. With a release expected later this year, but without a confirmed date, the announcement is already heating up forums and online communities. After all, it will be the last time we see the duo of intellectuals in action.
For Brazilian fans, this is big news in the entertainment scene. The anime has always had a legion of followers here, thanks to its sharp comedy and quality dubbing. Now, with the promise of an exclusive ending for the cinema, the expectation is that the film will also arrive on the country’s streaming services. In this way, we can look forward to another quality chapter in one of the most beloved romantic comedies of recent years. While release details are not fully revealed, the community is already speculating about which emotional conflicts the film will resolve and how the relationship between the protagonists will finally be resolved, perfectly concluding a series that marked the 2020s.
