When is Your Lie in April Season 2 coming out? No sequel season is announced — A-1 Pictures' 2014–15 Noitamina run (22 episodes) adapted the manga's ending; the Moments OVA and 2016 live-action film are not Season 2.
Your Lie in April Season 2 is not scheduled. The TV anime closed Kaori and Kousei's story on March 20, 2015. Moments (May 2015) is a prequel OVA; the September 10, 2016 live-action film retells the same arc. Leave fake 2026 dates off the clock.
When Is Your Lie in April Season 2?
No official premiere day is confirmed. Bookmark this page — we add a countdown as soon as a date is announced.
There is no Your Lie in April Season 2 — the spring performance already ended
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso finished on Fuji TV’s Noitamina block on March 20, 2015 after 22 episodes at A-1 Pictures. More than a decade later, no official Season 2 premiere exists. Fake Fall countdowns are nostalgia scrapes, not Aniplex line-ups.
Confirmed extras vs the sequel people keep googling
Confirmed: the 2014–15 TV series, the Moments OVA (childhood prequel), home-video box sets, and the 2016 live-action film. Not confirmed: a second TV season that continues after the manga’s ending. Mixing “Part 2” Blu-ray volumes with “Season 2” is how empty calendars get fake dates.
How to tell a real Your Lie in April anime announcement from noise
- Needs A-1 Pictures, Aniplex, or Kodansha on the byline — not a fan piano edit.
- Needs a project title and window — “Season 2 confirmed” blog posts do not count.
- Moments OVA and live-action film are already catalogued; they are not new TV.
- A Netflix/Crunchyroll trend spike is distribution, not production.
- Until those appear, leave the calendar blank.
What actually shipped after the first lie in April
- Oct 10, 2014–Mar 20, 2015 — TV anime (22 episodes; Noitamina / A-1).
- May 15, 2015 — Moments OVA with manga vol. 11.
- Sep 10, 2016 — Live-action film (Toho).
- Apr 1, 2020 — Complete Blu-ray box (Japan) with OVA.
- TV Season 2 — never announced.
The manga ending is the emotional destination — not a cliffhanger for Season 2
Unlike shonen that pause mid-tournament, Your Lie in April’s TV adaptation was built to land Kaori and Kousei’s final performance inside one continuous run. Asking “when is Season 2” usually means wanting more time with the cast after a complete tragedy, not tracking an unfinished adaptation.
The only extra anime chapter Aniplex actually released is Moments — a look backward, not forward. Keep this page undated so search stops rewarding phantom 2026 piano seasons.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about this release date.
1Is Your Lie in April Season 2 announced?
No. A-1 Pictures, Aniplex, and Naoshi Arakawa’s publishers have not posted a second TV season, staff list, or broadcast window. The 22-episode Noitamina run already reaches the manga’s final performance.
2What about the Moments OVA — is that Season 2?
No. Your Lie in April: Moments (May 15, 2015) is a single prequel episode bundled with manga volume 11, focused on childhood rivalry around Kousei. It is not a sequel cour after Kaori’s arc.
3Is the live-action movie Season 2?
No. The September 10, 2016 Toho live-action film (Suzu Hirose / Kento Yamazaki) retells the same story in a different medium. It does not continue the anime as a second television season.
4Could Arakawa still write more for anime?
He has moved on to other serials (including the shogi manga Orion on the Board). Extra manga never became a dated anime Season 2. Until Aniplex prints a new project, leave the calendar blank.
