In English, [i]Yohane the Parhelion[/i]. Also subtitled [i]Sunshine in the Mirror[/i], it is a [i][[Love Live! Sunshine!!]][/i] fantasy spin-off with an anime that debuted in 2023.

The first mention of an anime was as an April Fool's 2022 joke on the official [i]Love Live![/i] YouTube channel (the original has since been deleted from the official channel, but not before being "translated":[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSflX-60EAI]). On June 26, 2022, a "separate dedicated twitter account":[https://twitter.com/GJ_yohane/status/1541041754958630913] as well as a live announcement at an Aqours live confirmed that the spin-off was in the works.

The series casts Aqours in a completely new setting, set in a fantasy world version in the land of "Numazu", named after the Shizuoka Prefecture city and its surroundings (including Uchiura) that [i]Sunshine!![/i] is set in, and stars [[Tsushima Yoshiko]] as [[Yohane (genjitsu no yohane)|]] (Yoshiko's preferred fallen angel name). It tells "the story that no one knows about a girl that everyone knows," where she journeys and meets fantasy versions of other characters.

In June 2023, "[i]Blaze in the Deepblue[/i]":[http://yohane-bid.com/en/], a 2D action platform video game for the series in the vein of [i][[Metroid]][/i] and [i][[Castlevania (series)|]][/i], was announced after it itself was an April Fool's joke in 2023. Developed by Inti Creates, it is the first [i]Love Live![/i] console game released November 16, 2023 for [[Nintendo Switch]], [[PlayStation 4]] and [[PlayStation 5|5]], [[Xbox One]] and [[Xbox Series X|Series X/S]] and [[Steam (platform)|]].
