On Thursday, February 27, 2025, the official X account of Crayon Shin-chan announced that the franchise's 32nd movie, Crayon Shin-chan the Movie: Super Magnificient! Scorching Kasukabe Dancers will be released on Friday, August 8, 2025, in Japanese theaters.

This announcement was made with a teaser visual and trailer. In the teaser visual, one can see Tooru Kazama, Nene Sakurada, Shinnosuke Nohara, Masao Sato, Shiro, and Bo-chan wearing traditional Indian kurtas of the same colors as their normal outfits. The only exception is Shiro, who is shown wearing a purple kurta.

The visual depicts a passage in India where Bo-chan can be seen with a fearless smile sitting on a balcony in the background while the rest can be seen striking a dance pose. Surprisingly, Bo-chan does not seem like his usual self as he has a tissue paper stuck in his right nostril, and his hair is shaped like devil horns.

As for the teaser trailer, it depicts Shin-chan and his friends traveling to India. Soon after they reach their destination, they learn about an entertainment festival that takes place in the state every year. The Kasukabe Defense Group seemed especially interested in the festival as they wanted to dance with everyone.

Shin-chan seemingly has a different goal as he wanted to eat curry with one of the dancers. The trailer also shows Shin-chan mistaking "chapati," a bread originating from India, with "kabaddi," the traditional game from South Asia.

Soon after, the trailer reveals the conflict in the movie. Shin-chan and Bo-chan are set to discover a mysterious nose-shaped ornament. Apparently, using the paper emerging from the ornament was known for causing disasters. Unfortunately, Bo-chan does just that as he uses it to block his runny nose.

Soon after, Bo-chan's personality takes a wild turn, and he takes on an antagonist position in the movie. The movie will see Shin-chan and his friends singing and dancing to save the world and return their friend to normalcy. There are also set to be several supporting characters, but the anime has yet to reveal their roles in the movie.
