The theme is a "real experience of peeking into the camera rolls" of three high school girls who love anime, depicted in vertical movies as if they had taken photos of each other with their phones, showcasing their love for anime and their unvarnished selves.

Through natural moments captured by friends, the CM allows viewers to feel closer to their unpretentious daily lives and their passion for anime.
