Junichi Sato, who directed all previous Aria anime, returns as chief director and scriptwriter, while Takahiro Natori, an episode director and storyboarder from previous Aria anime, is the new director at J.C. Staff.
The anime will be the third and final project in the “Blue Curtain Call” series that includes Aria the Avvenire and Aria the Crepuscolo.
Rina Satou is playing the character Athena Glor, replacing the late Tomoko Kawakami from previous anime adaptations of Kozue Amano’s Aria manga.
