Two non blood related brothers Hanagaki Shiro and Ren decided to enroll in Yumenosaki to become an idol. Join them in their journey as they meet new and old friends!
"It was my mistake. I forgot to confirm the details so there's no compensation issue mentioned in the Graduation Live project right?" Yuzuru asked. "At Yumenosaki live performances have long been treated as part of the curriculum so the idea of them being unpaid didn't seem strange." He then said.
"It's actually quite odd when you think about it. We had to pay an appearance fee to stand on the stage of Graduation Live. Yet the fee wasn't fixed. We could pay as little or as much as we wanted with no set limit." Koga said.
"That's right. And the proceeds from this Graduation Live along with the appearance fees we paid all go straight into Anzu's pocket. Moreover it seems she's been receiving a hefty sum from the so-called'Gatekeeper' supposedly as compensation for trouble caused. With all of this combined she's going to be quite well off." Mao said.
"Gatekeeper...i-isn't he the person...who once took charge...for all the SS Stage...?" Ito asked. "Yep the very same one. Looks like you did some research. That's great Takasaki." Hokuto said with a proud smirk.
"Haha. Of course Anzu-chan isn't just pocketing the money for herself. All of that money is being saved in what we can call 'Anzu-chan's Fund'. And this fund is entirely for us idols." Makoto said.
"For example it could be used to wield the 'Holy Sword' and change rules though are unfavorable to current students. Depending on the situation it might even help overturn the concept of ES Academy that ES has been pushing thanks to all the money and power it brings." He added.
"She is becoming the backbone supporting all of us idols. As our producer you could say." He then said. "Yep. She first showed us the proposal of Graduation Live and asked if it was okay." Subaru said. "Ahhh now that you mentioned it she even asked me for the song I was making. She said if she wants to make this a success she needs to understand the song." Shiro said.
"Make sense. She said she was about to cross a dangerous bridge but she didn't want to cause trouble for anyone in Trickstar. In fact she even considered severing ties with us in case things went wrong. She said it in a way that felt like she was breaking up with us. It was somber and sad." Mao said.
"But that's nonsense. Just the thought of cutting ties with her makes me feel down again." Subaru said.

"Exactly. I don't get why she's acting like a stranger now. Not that I'm one to talk. I'm quick to cut myself off too." Makoto said. "Indeed even if we can't trust ES we can trust her. Live or die we're in this together." Hokuto said.
"We're allies irreplaceable partners, bound by fate. As long as she's on our side there's nothing we need to fear. Under the goddess' protection we'll keep doing what we love, energetically and boldly. As ourselves as idols." He added. "And as Trickstar right?" Subaru asked with a smile.
"...I'm lost for words. This situation is getting more worrying by the minute. I can't imagine ES turning a blind eye to such a threat." Yuzuru said. "It's fine. If she ever gets in danger we'll protect her this time." Hokuto said.
