New Kaguya-sama: Love Is War anime project, which is set to cover “The First Kiss Never Ends” arc will have both a theatrical screening (previosuly revealed) and a TV broadcast at a later date. The new information was previously teased on the anime’s official Twitter account.
According to a tweet shared on the official account, the theatrical screening will come first and will be followed by a TV one. An image from the third season’s finale (which was titled Ultra Romantic) was shared, along with additional details. The arc is known as “First Kiss wa Owaranai” in Japan.
The new Kaguya-sama: Love Is War anime project was announced after the finale of the third season aired in June, but details and format were not known, with many assuming that it was either a fourth season or a movie. The official announcement came in the August edition of the Monthly Newtype magazine, for which Kaguya was on the cover.
A-1 Pictures animated the series based on Aka Akasaka’s manga, which is set to end in 14 chapters. The main cast includes:

Crunchyroll is streaming all seasons of the anime and describes the plot as:
From a good family? Check! A good personality? Check! Shuchiin Academy is where all these elite students with bright futures flock to. As the two leaders of the student council, Kaguya Shinomiya and Miyuki Shirogane have supposedly fallen in love… But after almost half a year, nothing has happened!? They both have too much pride and can’t be honest. Things have gotten troublesome, and they are now caught in a war of “How to get the other to confess their love first.” This is a whole new romantic comedy, following an outbreak of cunning warfare between two elite students in love.
