A Hundred Scenes of Awajima | GOGOAnime

Synopsis:

This teen drama, featuring several girls, tells the story of a group of young women attending an all-girls music school. The narrative chronicles their formative years, occasionally shifting between the perspectives and paces of each character.

The Awajima Music School’s training camp, known as “the boarding school,” is where young women from all over Japan gather to perform on stage. Tabata Wakana dreams of becoming a music star; Takehara Kinue, the hostess, helps her fulfill her best friend’s dreams; the beautiful Okabe Emi, a scholarship student, is always the center of attention; and Ibuki Katsurako became a teacher despite coming from a family of actors.

The unique atmosphere of the music school is both a haven for these aspiring young women and a harsh battleground that pits them against each other. It’s a place where perseverance can lead to the blossoming of talent, but also, at times, to a cruel reality. The clear staging and psychological representation allow the subtle internal mechanisms of each character to emerge.
