Toei Animation describes the anime:
The main character drops out of high school in her second year, and aims at entering a university while working alone in Tokyo. A girl is betrayed by her friends and doesn't know what to do. Another girl is abandoned by her parents, and tries to survive in the city by doing part-time jobs. This world lets us down all the time. Nothing goes as planned. But we want something that we can continue to like. We believe there's a place where we belong. That's why we sing.
The cast members include:
Kazuo Sakai (Love Live! Sunshine!!, Mushi-Uta) directed the anime at Toei Animation. Jukki Hanada (Love Live! Sunshine!!) handled the series composition. nari Teshima designed the characters. Mari Kondō and Jae Hoon Jung were the CGI directors. Kenji Tamai (agehasprings, Sing "Yesterday" for Me, Samurai Flamenco) composed the music. Yūsuke Tanaka (agehasprings) was credited for music accompaniment.
The staff announced in July last year that cast members Mirei and Natsu are going on a temporary hiatus due to health reasons. The remaining three main cast members — Rina, Yuri, and Syuri — will continue performing.
