Based on the manga by Makoto Akui, Blue Orchestra is being directed by Seiji Kishi (Assassination Classroom, Angel Beats) at studio Nippon Animation, with series composition by Yuko Kakihara (Chihayafuru) and character designs by Kazuaki Morita (Tsukigakirei). Cast members are yet to be announced, though it was revealed that young prodigy Hajime Aono will provide the audio for the main character’s violin.
As previously reported, the series follows high school student Hajime Aono, who grew up a violin prodigy that won numerous awards and dominated most of the competitions he participated in. Despite this, he gave up on the violin during his second year of middle school. One day, he meets Ritsuko Akine. Akine inspires him to take up the violin again, deciding to go to a high school with a famous orchestra club. With the help of Akine and his new clubmates, he learns to love the violin again.
