Secret Masquerade
Narratively, BanG Dream! Ave Mujica Prima Aurora picks up during the spring, more than six months following Ave Mujica's redebut. Enjoying a surge in commercial success, band founder Sakiko proposes a ambitious concept for their next high-stakes performance: a secret masquerade. The movie expands the ongoing storyline established in BanG Dream! It's MyGO!!!!! and serves as a prelude to a unified TV anime sequel for both groups scheduled to air in January 2027.
