The anime takes place in the year 2045 in a world where songs have been banned. Instead of humans playing instruments and creating music, the “MiucS” music app handles its creation. One day, high school student Seria Aiba (voiced by Minori Fujidera) goes out with friends one day and overhears someone singing, which is prohibited. She finds out that the one singing is the “Great Ghost” of Cleopatra (voiced by Rina Hidaka), who appeared from outside Seria’s world.
