An anime film for the High School Fleet franchise was announced at its second anniversary event on Saturday. Aniplex also announced a smartphone game for the series titled High School Fleet: Kantai Battle de Pinch!, scheduled to launch later this year.

Animated by Production IMS, High School Fleet premiered in Spring 2016 for 12 episodes. Aniplex of America licensed the anime, which was simultaneously streamed on Crunchyroll, Funimation, and Daisuki. The first part of a two-part sequel OVA aired last March and the episode was shipped on a Blu-ray and DVD volume in May 2017. The series ranked among the top ten best TV anime in the 2016 Newtype Anime Awards.

Kanari Abe launched a manga adaptation of the series in Comic Alive magazine in 2015, which has three volumes in print as of last October. A spin-off manga by Tsuchii (Girls & Panzer: Little Army) ran in the same magazine for three volumes between June 2016 and August 2017. Kadokawa also published a two-volume side story novel by Aku Himenogi and Kinoto Masuishi in 2016.

Haifuri was enjoyable to watch like GuP, so it's good that more is coming.

Nice, hopefully this year and not 2019.

So apparently this is actually happening

I mean, I heard the show and OVAs sold pretty well, so it's not hard to see why there'd be a movie for it as well

More Haifuri for everyone, I guess

Yes. It's about damn time. Hope it would be also as insane as GuP der Film but with warships. XD

I Figured this would have more content sooner or later, Navy settings are huge in Japan, just wish was the same in the west.
