Synopsis
Streaming directly alongside the mainline animated broadcast through the official mobile game application, this charming series of comedic web shorts peeks into the whimsical off-duty lives of 346 Production's beloved pop idols. From heated cafeteria debates over gourmet bakery sweets and chaotic dance rehearsal mishaps to impromptu backstage photo shoots and funny costume adjustments, the miniature chibi starlets show off their candid personalities. Whether relaxing between high-stakes concert tours or playfully teasing their dedicated producer, the delightful girls fill each bite-sized micro-episode with irresistible charm and laughter.
