BanG Dream!,[1] also known as Bandori (Japanese: バンドリ!), is a Japanese multimedia project developed by Bushiroad. It was started from a comic named BanG Dream!: Star Beat by Japanese illustrator Aya Ishida and Japanese novelist Kou Nakamura in 2015. This project has released music CDs, anime music videos, live concert videos, manga adaptions, games, card games, and an anime series.
This project owns three language channels in the presence with various contents and services, but all are supervised by Bushiroad Inc.. Except for the original (main) Japanese channel (バンドリちゃんねる☆), the other two (Chinese and English) are mainly focused on its game information releases and character introductions. Those are operated by overseas agencies as different channel logo displays. The Korean channel operated by Kakao was suspended after the service termination for BanG Dream! Korean Version since January 31, 2024.[2] It's also the first international channel disbanded by local distributor.
Since the anime "BanG Dream! 2nd Season" was premiered in January 2019, Bushiroad starts their original live streaming program named "Bandori TV LIVE" (Japanese: バンドリ!TV LIVE) since January 10, 2019 in Japanese channel. It became a flagship video series in Japanese channel for three years' frequent term streamings every Thursday.
The "Day of BanG Dream!" (Japanese: バンドリの日) was set as February 28 every year since Aimi 2nd LIVE ~LOVE GENERATION~ at CLUB SEATA in Kichijōji, Tokyo on February 28, 2015.[3]
Currently, this project owned seven all-female bands grouped by voice actresses from anime and game in Japan: Poppin'Party, Afterglow, Pastel*Palettes, Roselia, Hello, Happy World!, RAISE A SUILEN, and Morfonica. All the seven bands were officially confirmed as "Verified Artists" since May 25, 2021 in both YouTube and Spotify as of their own discography releases.
