Synopsis:

Kanon Shibuya possesses undeniable musical talent, but debilitating stage fright has sidelined her aspirations. Unexpectedly placed in the general curriculum, Kanon attempts to abandon music entirely. However, her classmate Tang Keke reignites this passion with a fervent enthusiasm for school idols. Together, they form an idol group, a venture met with resistance from the school director’s daughter.

Their opportunity arises when the director grants them permission to establish a club, contingent on winning the prestigious Yoyogi School Idol Festival. The series follows Kanon and Keke as they navigate the demanding world of school idols, forging new friendships and recruiting members to overcome obstacles. The narrative explores themes of overcoming personal limitations, pursuing passions, and the bonds formed through shared dreams within the competitive landscape of school idol culture.
