The official website for the Re:Zero anime announced on Tuesday that nonoc will perform the theme song "Yuki no Hate ni Kimi no Na o" for the upcoming Re:Zero Hyōketsu no Kizuna (Frozen Bonds) original video anime (OVA) episode. The singer previously performed the song "White White Snow" for the Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Memory Snow OAV. The website also revealed stills from the new OVA.
The anime will screen in theaters in Japan starting on November 8.
The OVA will adapt the meeting between Emilia and Puck. The original Re:Zero Kara Hajimeru Zenjitsu-tan: Hyōketsu no Kizuna prequel novel was included with the first Blu-ray Disc home video release of the television anime series in Japan.
The 25-episode Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- anime adaptation premiered in April 2016. Crunchyroll streamed the series as it aired in Japan. Crunchyroll is also streaming both the Re:Zero ~Starting Break Time From Zero~ and Re:PETIT ~Starting Life in Another World from PETIT~ short anime spinoff series. Funimation released the television anime on home video with an English dub last June.
The first OVA episode in the franchise, Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Memory Snow, opened in Japanese theaters last October at #8. The episode featured a returning cast and staff.
The television anime is getting a second season.
Tappei Nagatsuki launched the original novel on the Shōsetsuka ni Narō website in 2012. Yen Press is publishing the light novel series in English, and is also releasing Daichi Matsuse's manga adaptation of the series, as well as the Re:Zero Ex spinoff light novel series.
