About Massara

From there, the short is directed by Keita Nagahara, and animated by the studio ENISHIYA Inc. The anime's story centers on a singer-songwriter, Nazuna, who is about to stop chasing her dream, and a very shy girl, Yuna. They meet and influence each other to create their own future.

In a music series like this, performance scenes and soundtrack choices are central. Voice work is led by Kiyoe Yoshioka as Nazuna and Kana Hanazawa as Yuna. If you count yourself among viewers who care about music and live performance, put it on your list. At 1 episodes in total, it is easy to plan a viewing schedule.
