Game System
By training I-Chu (cards), performing concerts, and increasing their favorability, you will be able to read stories about their interactions.
The cycle is: Concert –> Story –> Training (lessons, change).
With the new “seasons” system, you can enjoy events and scouting to your heart’s content. The content released in the app version is divided into seasons, which once unlocked can be replayed at any time, allowing you to enjoy it at your own pace.
