From the acclaimed Japanese animation studio CloverWorks, who have produced SPY x FAMILY, My Dress-Up Darling, BOCCHI THE ROCK!, and Horimiya, the pop idol drama film Trapezium is now streaming only on Crunchyroll.
Based on the original novel by Kazumi Takayama, the film is directed by Masahiro Shinohara (Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 3 Counterattack Arc), with a screenplay written by Yuko Kakihara (Buddy Daddies; Blue Box). The main voice cast includes Asaki Yuikawa (The Elusive Samurai), Hina Youmiya (BanG Dream! It’s MyGo!!!!!), Reina Ueda (Solo Leveling), and Haruka Aikawa (That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime).
High school student Yu Azuma will do whatever it takes to become an idol. She’s even sworn to stay off social media and promises not to get a boyfriend. Ready to make her dream a reality, she decides to find three other girls from the four corners of her prefecture to form an idol group. But the road to stardom hides unexpected trials that threaten to undo all she’s worked for.
