Plot

[edit]

The series features a girl named Yume Nijino who enrolls at Four Star Academy alongside some of her friends to become a top idol. The academy is known for a girl group called S4 consisting of the top four idols. Yume also receives attention from Subaru, a member of the boy group M4, who seems to have a crush on her due to his way of speaking and body language when she is around him.

The second season introduces Venus Ark, a rival school to Four Star Academy that uses a ship as its schoolhouse. Two of the students, "perfect idol" Elza Forte and Kirara Hanazono, join Yume and the other idols, while also explaining them about the highest class dress type known as "Star Premium Rare Coord".
