The title is Aria the Crepusculo (Twilight)

Shochiku producer Toshio Iizuka announced on Tuesday that the brand-new Aria work will cast Rina Satou (Maria Watches Over Us' Tsutako Takeshima, Negima!'s Negi Springfield, A Certain Scientific Railgun's Mikoto Misaka) as the character Athena Glory. Satou replaces the late Tomoko Kawakami from previous anime adaptations of Kozue Amano's Aria manga.

Iizuka added that Satou was cast on the recommendations of director Junichi Sato and original creator Kozue Amano, to portray a new drama between Athena, Alice, and the other characters. Iizuka assured fans that Kawakami remains "part of the Aria family," even as Satou joins the family. Kawakami was still credited for a "special performance" of Athena Glory in Aria the Avvenire in 2015, four years after Kawakami passed away in 2011.
