In January 2018, Japan released its first TV anime adaptation of the popular mobile game IDOLiSH7.

Following this, in February 2018, another net anime series called IDOLiSH7 Vibrato was launched as a spinoff of the original series.

In April 2020, the primary anime series released its second season. Prior to that, the first episode was made available online ahead of time in January 2020. Crunchyroll streamed this episode on the same day it was released. During its initial broadcast in Japan, Crunchyroll also streamed the anime live. Due to COVID-19, the second season was delayed until the fifth episode. After that, it continued with episode three, which was released in October 2020.

IDOLiSH7 Third Beat! , the third IDOLiSH7 anime season , ran for two split cours (quarters of the year). The first half of the season premiered in July 2021.

The anime's 26th episode aired in December 2022, and then episodes 27-30 aired for four consecutive weeks in February 2023.

In May 2023, the IDOLiSH7 franchise held its first live-action movie concert in Japan. It earned $1.58 million in its opening weekend and over $5 million in total revenue.
