Synopsis of the selection project
The multimedia project focuses on the seventh “selection project,” an annual idol reality show from Japan that takes place every summer. The selection project is the main gateway for any girl who wants to become an idol, and the project follows nine girls who have won the regional qualifying rounds. Audience votes determine which girls win or lose in these "foreplay battles".
Suzune Miyama wants to be an idol like Akari Amenazawa, an idol who debuted through a reality show. Suzune had been sick since childhood, but she often listened to Akari's music when she went for a walk. Akari's voice gave Suzune a smile and courage that encouraged her to do the same for others. During her final summer in high school, Suzune decides to take part in the seventh selection project to help make her dreams come true.
