Synopsis
After Ikebukuro's mysterious disappearance, Seria joins Alice in Theater to become an idol, uncovering hidden truths.
Five years ago, a mysterious phenomenon known as the Global Synchronic Urban Disappearance caused a large chunk of Ikebukuro to disappear overnight. Following the catastrophe, the inhabitants found themselves thrown into a state of disorder, and unexplained electromagnetic anomalies called "Auroras" began to be sighted. Awed by the performance of idol Izumi Hinazaki at a play utilizing the "Super Material Theater," a stage designed to revitalize Ikebukuro through hologram-enhanced plays, high school student Seria Morino is inspired to become an idol. Shortly afterward, she is scouted by a young woman named Kaoru Sakakibara, who turns out to be the director of Alice in Theater—the troupe that Izumi used to be a part of. Aiming to pursue her dreams, Seria decides to follow Kaoru and joins Alice in Theater. Upon arriving at their establishment, she is cordially welcomed by a group of young and friendly girls who are all very passionate about acting. However, something seems to be amiss.

- 7/10 “So chaotic, yet so bold. --> It is NOT a story about idols, just in case someone misinterpretedpowers like Pastel Memories. Here there’s quality, just put in simple ways. But “simple” doesn’t...”
- 8/10 “Okay, so I usually don't write or rate any anime that I haven't finished yet, just because I feel it is unfair and I wouldn't have done it here either, but seeing the score while there is only one...”
