LatestThe show must go on as the actors prepare for their last time singing together.
Wakana Sakai was involved in music, but gave it up one day. Konatsu Miyamoto loves singing and can't be torn from it. Sawa Okita would do anything for her closest friends. They laugh, they fight, they worry, they love... Through their very ordinary lives, little by little the girls learn to move forward. Sometimes they feel as if they can't go on alone, but as long as they have their friends, they believe they'll make it someday. Wakana, Konatsu, Sawa, and the music they make in their ensemble weave a tiny but dazzling story of the power of music.

Voice cast chemistry so real you'll forget they're fictional.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The fictional 'White Deer Gratias' song was performed by the real-life Tokyo Philharmonic Chorus.
The 'bukatsu' club system depicted is facing real decline in Japan, making this anime unexpectedly elegiac. P.A. Works later revisited this exact vibe in their 'Working Girls' trilogy.
