Studio Jumondou is animating the series with Kiyoto Nakajima at the helm as director. Takuya Satō is the executive director, and Chisato Kikunaga and Hitomi Kaiho are designing the characters. The original concept was created by Pony Canyon and THE ORAL CIGARETTES member Takuya Yamanaka, who is also writing the scripts. Pony Canyon is also producing the music.
Lastly, here’s an overview of the series from Pony Canyon:
First-year high school student, Uta Komaki.
She has many weaknesses.
But she loves to sing.
Aiming for an ordinary youth,
she tries to join the light music club as part of her high school debut—
only to fail miserably due to her timid nature.
In her despair, Uta encounters
a form of music created solely by the human voice—a cappella.
There, she finds a group of girls whose imperfect youth
is woven together only through their harmonized voices.
—Even without shining, it’s still youth.
