Ko Details
Although
the exact release window and possible additions to the voice cast are kept in
reserve until future announcements, it is expected that the project will
maintain the technical consistency of the franchise, returning to the

About
the work
The story
follows twins Aqua and Ruby, who were reincarnated
with memories of their past lives as the secret children of a legendary idol.
After a tragic event that takes their mother away from them, they both decide
to delve into the depths of the entertainment industry. As Ruby pursues the
dream of becoming a singer on the lit stage, Aqua plunges into the shadows of
acting and production with a single, cold goal: to uncover the truth behind her
mother's murder and exact revenge.
The
original work, written by Aka Akasaka and illustrated by Mengo
Yokoyari, began serialization in 2020 and continues to be published with
resounding commercial success. Its raw and honest deconstruction of the idol system,
combined with elements of psychological drama and mystery, has established it
as one of the modern pillars of manga, guaranteeing high expectations for the
outcome of its animated version.
