PLOT
Idols Yuuya Niyodo and Kazuki Yoshino make up the band ZINGS. While Yuuya sees the work as merely another way to make money, Kazuki gives every performance his best. Yuuya's manager issues him an ultimatum: unless he starts putting in more effort, he will be dismissed. This is due to Yuuya's lack of respect for the fans and his failure to take his profession seriously. Yuuya meets Asahi Mogami, an idol sporting a vibrant outfit, backstage. If Asahi hadn't passed away a year earlier, she would have had a promising future. Asahi longs to perform for her admirers once again, not even as a ghost. She is filled with wrath and demands that Yuuya give her his position after learning that he no longer shares her passion for the idol life. In an odd twist, Yuuya awakens to discover that Asahi has taken control of him and can perform tasks that he is too lazy to complete on his own. Yuuya feels as though he had a ticket to an easy idol life with Asahi performing for him. Asahi, however, has other ideas. She desires Yuuya will discover the ambition she still has even if she is no longer with us. She wants them to work as a team to create the greatest idol the world has ever seen. Can a man who lacks motivation like Yuuya possibly care about something other than money?
