After leaving the popular idol group JPX48, Ai Narata starts a new journey into the world of the Kouka Revue, an all-female musical theater troupe. It's there that she meets Sarasa Watanabe, a tall, semi-obnoxious go-getter with lofty dreams.

When Ai runs off, leaving Sarasa with the stalker, Sarasa decides to hear out his side of the story. An explosive argument threatens to end any hope of friendship between Ai and Sarasa.

A surprise present from Tokyo rings in Sarasa's sixteenth birthday. When the class is assigned a scene from Romeo and Juliet, Sarasa's group struggles to put together their performance.

The first-year class learns they'll be participating in the once-a-decade Kouka Grand Sports Festival. A spark of jealousy and deep-seated resentment tear a rift between Chika and Chiaki.

When the Superiors grant a rare opportunity to Sarasa, the decision earns her the ire of the second-year students. Finding herself uncharacteristically nervous, Sarasa turns to Ai and her senpai for advice as the Sports Festival begins.

The first-year class gets another opportunity to act, this time in front of a crowd at the Culture Festival. However, there are only four roles, and forty students, which only means one thing: auditions.

Sarasa takes the stage as Tybalt. Sugimoto struggles with a crisis of self-worth. The cast list for the Culture Festival performance is revealed.
