Exclusive Footage Confirmed: The Dangers in My Heart Compilation Film Sets 2026 Release, Celebrates Kana Ichikawa with New Visual

The dedicated fanbase of The Dangers in My Heart (Boku no Kokoro no Yabai Yatsu) is currently experiencing a peak of excitement following the announcement of extensive details regarding its upcoming cinematic release. Officially titled The Dangers in My Heart: The Movie, this highly anticipated compilation project is scheduled to debut in Japanese theaters on February 13, 2026.

This feature film is designed not merely as a summary, but as a “compilation film plus,” skillfully blending an edited retrospective of the first two successful television seasons with significant, brand-new narrative sequences. The primary mission of the movie is to propel the intricate relationship between protagonists Kyotaro Ichikawa and Anna Yamada into compelling, new emotional territory.

Longtime viewers will appreciate the return to classic moments, while being immediately drawn into fresh storylines, including a much-anticipated new chapter dedicated exclusively to their budding romance. Adding further depth, the film will feature an exclusive live band performance spotlighting Kyotaro’s energetic older sister, Kana Ichikawa. Chief director Hiroaki Akagi and scriptwriter Jukki Hanada have specifically highlighted that the production includes exclusive, never-before-seen footage developed solely for this theatrical experience, ensuring it delivers substantial value for both dedicated fans and newcomers discovering the series.

International enthusiasm has been high since select clips were showcased during a special panel at Anime Expo in July 2025. However, while the Japanese premiere date is locked, global fans are still awaiting confirmation regarding a simultaneous international release. The production team has indicated that distribution plans will be detailed on the official website and social media channels as the release window approaches.

Beyond the main feature, the franchise is celebrating fan-favorite Kana with a special birthday visual. This vibrant, festival-themed illustration, shared across official anime channels, underscores her growing prominence, hinting at her expanded role within the new film. Furthermore, Kana's increasing popularity is being capitalized upon with the announcement of a dedicated manga spinoff centered on her character, slated to commence serialization in Champion Cross on July 22, 2025. With Shin-Ei Animation handling the production and Kensuke Ushio returning to craft the score, the movie promises a powerful mix of nostalgic highlights and narrative innovation, building upon the steady success of Norio Sakurai’s original manga, which currently encompasses 12 tankōbon volumes. Worldwide, the countdown is on for further updates regarding screenings and potential global streaming availability.
