A very short Youtube trailer of the new Code Geass 4th episode unveiled a new song entitled アルコ (Aruko):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hxUt1XlHkXc
Maaya's official website describes the song as a magnificent dramatic ballad deeply related to the anime story.

To be honest, the video is so short and there are voices and sound effects so I can barely hear the song, it's impossible to tell if it's gonna be great or not... And there's no release date at all so far, the movie went out today in Japanese theaters and it seems it's the only way to listen to the song so far...
But that's not all!
Maaya's official website posted this today at the end of the new song announcement:
"坂本真綾の20周年記念プロジェクトも近く新たな動きが…。ご期待ください!"
"The Maaya Sakamoto 20th anniversary project is going to have something new moving very soon... Get ready!"
A new album? The Saitama live release? A new event..? I'm so ready and I can't wait! ^^
