22/7 English Sub & Dub

About 22/7

22/7 blends music by A-1 Pictures (2020). Below is a fresh retelling of what the story is about. The setup: Miu Takigawa views the realm from behind the safety of her bangs, content with peacefully passing unnoticed through life. Reserved and timid, Miu struggles to converse with or even smile at customers when at her part time job, but she works tirelessly to support her mother and precious little sister, Haru.

From there, it is a shock when a letter arrives from the entertainment company GIP, announcing that she has been chosen as a candidate for their new project. Miu decides to accept the invitation and heads to the meeting spot where the eccentric ensemble of other candidates filter in, all summoned by their own letters. Not long after, the girls are escorted by a manager to a luxurious secret facility, where it is explained that they needs to follow the enigmatic directions of "The Wall," whose orders are absolute.

In a music series like this, performance scenes and soundtrack choices are central. This one is best suited to viewers who care about music and live performance.

Production & Appeal

A-1 Pictures is the studio behind 22/7, and its direction shapes everything from character design to motion. The music focus matters here: performance scenes and soundtrack choices are central. With a 6.8/10 score, it is more of a niche pick than a universal crowd-pleaser. Released in 2020, it competed with that season's other new series for attention.
