In March 2024, “Utagoe wa Mille-feuille” (hereinafter “Utamiru”) appeared on Fuji TV’s “National Harmonepu League” performing a cappella, demonstrating their talent.
It had been announced for some time that an original anime adaptation would be made, but at an event held on May 26th, it was announced that it would be a TV anime and would be broadcast in 2025.
In addition, it was announced that the band will produce a fourth single and that it will be released this fall, which drew huge cheers from fans.
The event held on May 26th was “Utamiru Event Vol.3 ~AFFECTION~”. It was held in two parts, afternoon and evening, at the Science Hall of the Science Museum in Tokyo.
In addition to performing five songs a cappella live, including “TREASURE” and “Invisible Man” from the 3rd single released on April 3rd, Yamanaka Takuya performed a reading drama with a different scenario for day and night. In the talk corner, he also took part in a quiz to look back on the history of “Uta Mill”, which has been in the project for two years, and the audience was very excited.
With new information about the anime adaptation finally being announced, we can’t take our eyes off Utamiru, which is gaining momentum.

Introduction to “Utagoe wa Millefeuille”
“A cappella” x “High school girls” x “Complex”
A cappella is a type of music woven together by multiple people using their own voices as instruments.
Because the voices collide, harmony and communication are essential.
A story about the youth and daily life of high school girls, centered around the precious theme of a cappella.
A musical project that follows the growth of a group of voice actors who are new to a cappella.
Synopsis
–Even if it doesn’t shine, it’s still youth.
Komaki Uta, a first year high school student.
He loves to sing, but he’s extremely shy, a wimp, and a coward.
When she started high school, she tried to join the light music club, but
Intimidated by the bright and glamorous aura of the club members, he was unable to submit his application to join.
In the midst of her despair, she accepts an invitation from the club president, Kojo Airi, to join the a cappella club…
To put it positively, the a cappella club is full of unique individuals, or to put it negatively, a bunch of weird people.
Even if it’s a little plain, minor, or not sparkly,
There was a youth that could only be found there, connected by voice.
