    Uranohoshi Girl's High School is home to Chika Takami, an unassuming student unexpectedly drawn into the world of school idols. Inspired by the legacy of μ's, a legendary idol group from a rival school, Chika aims to establish her own idol club at Uranohoshi. Her aspirations face immediate resistance from Dia Kurosawa, the assertive student council president who opposes the club’s formation.

The series explores Chika's determination to build a thriving idol group against considerable opposition. It depicts the challenges of pursuing dreams within a structured environment and the complexities of fostering collaboration while navigating personal aspirations and rivalries. The narrative focuses on the initial struggles of forming a new group, hinting at themes of perseverance and finding one’s voice.
