Lucky Star, a series which popularized the “cute girls doing cute things” genre is finally returning after going on hiatus in 2014.
The series began in 2003 by creator Kagami Yoshimizu and follows the daily life of four high school girls. Izumi Konata, Miyuki Takara, and twins Kagami and Tsukasa Hiiragi. A secondary cast of characters also regularly make an appearance.
An anime for the series aired in 2007 which helped kickstart the career of voice actress Aya Hirano, who voiced Konata but is also known for her lead role in The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya as the titular Haruhi.
The return of the series was announced by C2 Kikan, who appear to have a personal relationship with Yoshimizu.
