Game developer Happy Elements announced the Idol Memories anime series back in early July and it premiered yesterday on October 2nd, 2016. Just ahead of it is something we missed with a new two-minute promo for it that arrived back on Friday that showcases more of the animation and the two main songs. The opening theme song is “Mainichi ga Good Day (毎日がGoodDay)” by Project Frontier and the ending theme is “Barefoot Cinderella” by the same.
Katsuya Kikuchi is set to direct it based on the scripts by Hiroshi Oonogi and character designs by Reina Okuyama. The series will be animated by Seven Arcs Pictures, who worked on Dog Days, Trinity Seven and Mushibugyo among others.
The main cast includes Moe Toyota as Vivi Lin, Marika Hayase as Sena Hattori, Yuu Kimura as Kokona Hayakawa, Mayu Sagara as Miku Kajiwara, Ruriko Aoki as Yucho La and Riko Kohara as Nanami Hoshi.
Plot concept: In the near future where Idols are active in the space of virtual reality, two units from the Shiritsu Kanon Gakuen, which are currently ranking down, are aiming for the top of idol league! Who will be getting the honorable tiara?
