Kaguya-sama: Love is War -The First Kiss That Never Ends- is directed by Shinichi Omata at A-1 Pictures. The original Kaguya-sama: Love is War manga was serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump with an English language version available from Viz Media. Aniplex of America describes the feature-length sequel to the TV anime series as such:

 

Shuchiin Academy’s student council room, the place where Student Council Vice President Kaguya Shinomiya and President Miyuki Shirogane met. After a long battle in love, these two geniuses communicated their feelings and, at the Hoshin Festival, had their very first kiss. However, there was no clear confession of love. The relationship between these two, who assumed they would be a couple, remains ambiguous. Now, overly conscious of their feelings, they must face the biggest challenge yet: Christmas. It’s Shirogane who wants it to be perfect versus Kaguya who pursues the imperfect situation. This is the very “normal” love story of two geniuses and the first kiss that never ends.

 

Crunchyroll is currently streaming all three seasons of the Kaguya-sama: Love is War TV anime adaptation.
