Airing today! The first episode of "Irodori Midori" has been released! Dedication of ema (votive picture tablet) to shrines in the suburbs of Tokyo

The first episode of the short anime "Irodori Midori," which will start airing today, January 4 (Tue.), has arrived with a synopsis and advance cuts. An ema (votive tablet) was also dedicated to a shrine as a prayer for a hit.

This short anime is based on the girl band "Irodori Midori" from Sega's music game "CHUNITHM," which is widely developed through manga videos, music releases, and live performances. It is an everyday girl band story set in a high school attached to a music academy, where aspiring musicians gather.
The TV animation is directed by Chihiro Tanaka (Animation Director of "ODDTAXI" and others), and the animation production is handled by Satoru. Emi Nitta will play the lead role.
