It has been announced that the comic A Star Brighter Than The Sun by Kazune Kawahara which is currently being serialized in Bessatsu Margaret (Shueisha) will be getting a TV anime adaptation in 2025!
To go with the announcement, a comment and gorgeous original illustration from the author Kazune Kawahara was released.
Kazune Kawahara’s Comment:
All of the people involved with the anime are making it with love and dedication and they respect the original work so once it starts I definitely want you to watch it. Just from what I know there are lines and expressions that are added to the original and it's done very well so please look forward to it. It’s the first time having my drawings made into an anime and since I don’t really understand my art and I draw while cutting corners I thought that surely it would be hard to do but they made it very cute!
A Star Brighter Than The Sun is the sparkling first love story of Sae Iwata, a stronger than average girl and Kouki Kamishiro, a frail boy that she helps.

[MEGALOMARIA UNLIMITED UNIVERSE]

▼Product Highlights!
[Action Pose Joints]
As this character is an actress of a tokusatsu show heroine, the kit features a specially designed joint structure that allows for more expressive, dynamic poses. This makes it slightly different from previously released SOUSAISHOJOTEIEN models and may require a little more experience to assemble.
Using joints and features such as extendable shoulders, a chest and stomach that can twist in all directions, an adjustable skirt, and double-jointed elbows and knees, dynamic action poses can be created, like standing firm with a sword gripped with both hands, unsheathing the sword, and kneeling.

[Movable Hair Parts for Scene Effects]
The back of the hair is movable, allowing it to be posed as if flowing in the wind.
[Stern Expression Parts for Not-So-Everyday Scenes]
While other SOUSAISHOJOTEIEN models feature expressions for everyday scenes, this kit features expressions for out-of-the-ordinary scenes such as fighting. The kit includes four different expressions, each in both painted and unpainted parts: Serious, shouting, hurt, and determined.
Additionally, the included decals feature eyes looking in different directions, so faces that are not in the pre-painted set can also be created.
[Newly Sculpted Hand Parts for Fight Scenes]
The kit comes with five hand parts made for fight scenes: Elegant open, powerful open, closed, sword-holding, and gun-holding hands. They also go perfectly with various weapons sold separately.
[Pre-Painted Parts]
The white line of her sailor uniform is a separate pre-painted part, allowing to recreate a model faithful to the original art just by assembling the kit.
