About Revue Starlight

Here is what Revue Starlight (Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight) is about, retold in plain terms: a school and music anime by Kinema Citrus (2018). The premise: As preparations begin for Seisho Music Academy's yearly Seisho Festival, the girls of the 99th class are gearing up to perform their very own rendition of "Starlight," the tragic tale of two goddesses drawn together by the glow. Created to foster the next generation of theatrical talent, this girls’ only school works to improve the singing, acting, and dancing skills of its learners.

Further in, one student is 16-year-old Karen Aijou, an easygoing girl who has dreamed of performing on stage since she was a child. Her love for theater is further invigorated when her childhood companion Hikari Kagura transfers to Seisho Academy. Through her old friend, Karen stumbles upon a concealed elevator leading to a massive theater underneath the school.

With school at the core, campus dynamics, friendships and rivalries set the day-to-day tone. Think of it as a pick for viewers who enjoy school-life settings.
