The Poppin'Party continues in a new season of BanG Dream!, and Sentai Filmworks announced the license of the anime's next chapters. Sentai plans to release the series on select digital outlets as part of the winter 2019 simulcast season, with a home video release to follow at a later date.

Territories for Sentai's license include: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Latin America and Central America.

Sentai describes the new season:

BUSHIROAD’s smash-hit multimedia franchise returns for a second anime season! Kasumi and the rest of Poppin'Party may have achieved their goal, but it turns out they were just at the starting line. Performing is a lot of work, and, of course, they're not the only band in town! Do they have what it takes to reach true musical stardom?

Aimi (Argevollen, Engaged to the Unidentified) returns as Kasumi Toyama, while Ayaka Ohashi (Akame ga Kill!, Flip Flappers), Ayasa Ito (Futari wa Milky Holmes, Revue Starlight), Rimi Nishimoto (Future Card Buddyfight Ace, Hina Logi: from Luck & Logic) and Sae Otsuka (BanG Dream!) reprise their roles as Tae, Rimi, Saya and Arisa respectively. SANZIGEN (009 Re:Cyborg and the New Theatrical Movie Initial D Legend 1: Awakening) will animate the season.
