Episodes

I Don't Understand Idols!
Suzumi Hiyori left her tiny hometown to pursue a big dream: join a track team and compete at nationals. But her first day of high school turns weird fast when she accidentally makes enemies of two up-and-coming pop stars... who are in her class.

The Manager-in-Training Job!
Hiyori's job skills get two thumbs up from her boss and CEO, and two thumbs down from the boys of LIP×LIP.

What I Can Do
Hiyori can't help Aizo and Yujiro with their family circumstances, but there's one thing the idols need that she's very, very good at.

Idols Are Amazin'!
Hiyori's manager-in-training contract is about to end. Luckily her dad is doing better, so she doesn't need a new job. She's free to focus on her track dream again. But has helping with Aizo and Yujiro's dream changed her?

Producing Hiyori.
When President Tamura suggests that Hiyori dress up for an outing, Hiyori's insecurities about her appearance come to the fore. She can't help but worry that only "cute" girls can be heroines, and that she can never be cute... but is that all in her mind?

My Childhood Friend
Hiyori enjoys surprising Nagisa with her cute makeover, and it leads to some unexpected revelations. Meanwhile, Aizo and Yujiro are helping them both... maybe. Is that what "help" means?

Idols Run the Show!
Aizo and Yujiro aren't exactly happy to get assigned to the relay race for Field Day. Is there anything that can motivate them to run?

Scandal
Just when things are going great for Hiyori and LIP×LIP, someone posts stealth photos of them talking to each other. Even though there's nothing scandalous happening in the photos, talking to any girl alone is scandalous when you're a male pop idol!

I'm Quittin' My Manager Job!
Devastated by fans' reactions to the photos of her with LIP×LIP, Hiyori decides to quit her job. Meanwhile, Aizo and Yujiro's respective brothers offer advice on addressing the scandal.

Battle of the Hated Heroine
The Möbius agency isn't the same without Hiyori. But Hiyori has her own problems to deal with at school...

Passion Is Unbeatable!
