In this digitally dependent world, the concept of an opera only exists for those who still aspire to perform there. 

Kageki Shoujo stands out as a musical anime since it revolves around a Taisho-era theatre. It is now the stage for its 100th batch of girls who aspire to become brilliant actresses.

The upcoming musical anime Kageki Shoujo!! released a second PV before its premiere on July 3rd, 2021.

The trailer starts with one of the protagonists, Ai, a former idol, under a cherry blossom tree. It is here that she meets the other protagonist of the show, Sarasa.

It contains scenes that show the polar differences between Sarasa’s and Ai’s personalities. Sarasa is a lively person who makes friends quickly, whereas Ai is cold and distant. 

We are also introduced to the supporting characters from the anime as they learn and enact the plays. The trailer shows the not-so-happy side of the anime where we can see a saddened Sarasa.

The opening theme, Hoshi no Orchestra (Starry Orchestra) by saji, and the ending theme were previewed in the trailer. 

OP theme song saji “Star Orchestra.”

Sarasa sang a song that would allow them to run to their dreams with all their might.

Please stay tuned.

PS At first, I was trying to make something like a school song, and there is a remnant of it in the intro, so please listen to it. I have the whole volume, but the original is also insanely interesting.

The ED is Hoshi no Tabibito (Stellar Traveler) by Sayaka Senbongi and Yumiri Hanamori, who play the roles of Sarasa and Ai, respectively.

Kageki Shoujo is not just your regular musical anime with pretty girls with the odds in their favor. It goes much deeper than this.

For instance, Sarasa, the personification of sunshine and rainbows, can also upset people and make enemies.

This anime focuses on more realistic aspects about a dying art form that only a few people relish. However, it is definitely worth the watch, at least for the impeccable animation.
