Charisma

One day, a special power called "CV (Charm Vision)," which can visualize, embody, and manipulate one's own charm and value has blossomed in a small percentage of humanity by the effect of a group of rainbow-colored meteorites called "CHARM" rained down on the earth. The Uchoten Corporation, which has taken notice of this power, has gathered five buddy units consisting of a person with the ability and their partner, for a total of ten members. In order to form the idol project "CHARMS!!" that utilizes "CV," a year-long training program "GOING UP CHARMS!!" was launched. The girls who were gathered in "Garage," a communal living facility, overcome various challenges and deepen their bond together with the support of their "supporters" (=fans). Will the girls be able to form "CHARMS!!"? What gives these girls the strength and charm to do their best is the power of nothing else but your support. --"Please let our lives shine!"

The project follows the musical careers and personal lives of several bands under the "Dynamic Chord" agency and music label.

Born to a wealthy family in the provincial town of Herschel City, she dreams of becoming a musician, but nobody around her understands. She feels like the loneliest person in the world. Her name is Tuesday. A chance meeting brings them together. They want to sing. They want to make music. Together, they feel like they just might have a chance. The two of them may only create a tiny wave. But that wave will eventually grow into something larger...
