Synopsis

As cherry blossom trees dance, a new school year begins. Karen, Hikari, Maya, Junna, Mahiru, Nana, Claudine, Futaba and Kaoruko, all now third-year students, have been promoted to Class A of the Actor Training Department at Seisho Music Academy. The bond between stage girls who have experienced various joys and difficulties deepens as the final year before graduation begins.

The girls find themselves reminicising about their past growth as they interact with new freshman students for a short while. But as they begin to take elective classes in preparation for their futures, their surroundings suddenly become troubled. Just what is important to everyone? What is important to themselves? What is the "future" of stage girls?

— The answer to all of this lies within "one's own determination". Each person chooses their own path to their dreams, all with their own thoughts and worries. Uncertain is the outcome of the Giraffe's Revue, where nine people, with nine different ways, face a self that they must overcome...

#3 Growth. This is the story of the youths from the 99th Class as they move on to the next chapter of their lives, and their trajectory towards a shining new advance.
