The broadcast of the TV anime “IDOLiSH7 Second BEAT!”, which started in Apr. 2020, has been postponed. According to the official website, the production had been underway for a sufficient period of preparation, but the declaration of a state of emergency in response to the spread of the new coronavirus had a major impact on the schedule.
