The teaser trailer and key visual for the theatrical compilation Girls Band Cry Compilation Film have been officially released. Part 1, titled Youth Rhapsody (JP:青春狂走曲, Seishun Kyōsōkyoku), premieres on October 3, followed by Part 2, Hey, Future. (Nā, Mirai.) on November 14.

The newly released trailer centers on Nina Iseri, a girl who drops out of high school and moves to Tokyo alone. Despite the cold stares from others, she presses forward, driven by a fierce determination not to lose. Her journey—filled with discomfort, loneliness, and anger—is marked by repeated setbacks, yet she strives to stay true to her convictions. One particularly powerful moment in the trailer shows her standing on stage at a live show, shouting, “To everyone who denied everything about me—I’ll scream back, ‘I wasn’t wrong!’” The intensity of her words leaves a lasting impression.

Additionally, the second wave of advance tickets (MoviTickets) will go on sale starting May 30. As a limited-edition bonus, each ticket will come with a clear card featuring the film's key visual. There are six types of cards in total. Three designs are tied to Part 1, featuring Nina Iseri, Momoka Kawaragi, and Subaru Awa. The other three, associated with Part 2, feature Tomo Ebizuka, Rupa, and one based on the film’s key visual.

A special bonus will also be offered to fans who purchase all six MoviTickets simultaneously—a “Clear Card Case” for storing the collectible cards. All of these items are available in limited quantities.

Girls Band Cry is an original anime series produced by Toei Animation that aired from April to June 2024. The story follows Nina Iseri, a girl who stumbles in life and drops out of high school. In Tokyo, she meets kindred spirits—Momoka Kawaragi, Subaru Awa, Tomo Ebizuka, and Rupa. Together, they form the band “Togenashi Togeari,” facing their pasts and carving out new futures through music.

The compilation film will restructure all 13 episodes of the original TV series into two feature-length parts, enhanced with newly animated scenes.
