Crunchyroll adds Strawberry Prince The Movie anime to summer 2025 lineup

Crunchyroll has announced that Strawberry Prince: The Movie will be added to its streaming lineup in Summer 2025. The animated film is based on the popular Japanese music group Strawberry Prince (also known as SutoPuri), which has gained a massive following through online videos, live concerts, and music releases.
Originally released in Japan in 2024, Strawberry Prince: The Movie was produced by LIDENFILMS and directed by Junichiro Hashiguchi. The film offers fans a fictionalized story that blends reality with fantasy, following the six members Nanamori, Jel, Satomi, Colon, Rinu, and Root as they pursue their musical dreams. Alongside energetic live performances, the movie explores the emotional struggles and friendships that drive their success.
The film was highly anticipated in Japan, especially among the group’s younger fanbase, and received positive attention for its colorful animation style and heartfelt storytelling. It marks a rare anime adaptation focused directly on real-world Japanese pop stars, highlighting the growing intersection between anime and music entertainment.
Crunchyroll confirmed that the movie will be available for streaming worldwide beginning in Summer 2025. Specific release dates and the list of supported regions will be announced closer to launch. Details regarding language options, including English subtitles and a potential English dub, have not yet been revealed.
Strawberry Prince: The Movie adds to an already busy anime slate for Crunchyroll this year, which includes major theatrical releases, new original projects, and series connected to music and idol culture. The platform has been steadily expanding its catalog to cover a broader range of genres beyond traditional action and fantasy anime, responding to increasing global interest in Japan’s pop culture scene.
In addition to the film release, Strawberry Prince continues to build their presence internationally through music streaming services and social media engagement. Their unique approach mixing real voices with animated personas has made them one of the standout success stories in Japan’s digital entertainment industry.
