Story
You were just enjoying a concert by the legendary top idol Ruri Tsukuyomi… and then you woke up in a strange, unfamiliar world.
Rescued by Akari Sunohara, a cheerful girl with a deep love for idols, and guided by Moku-san, a flower spirit, you learn the shocking truth: you and Akari have fallen into a mysterious dimension called the Void, and there’s no way home—at least, not yet.
Your only hope lies in Akari’s hidden potential as an idol. In this world, idols are more than performers—they’re beacons of hope and the key to restoring lost connections between realms. But Akari can’t do it alone. She needs your support.
To return home together, you’ll need to build a city in the Void—an idol sanctuary known as Fanctuary that will light the way!
