At one point, they represented magicians, gravure idols, and fortune tellers, but finally, their one remaining talent finally quits. Faced with having absolutely no one to represent, the agency president, Tange, thinks up a plan to produce an idol group. Despite having to deal with a rather audacious boss, manager Matsuda decides to go to the city to look for possible idol candidates. It is then that Matsuda has a fateful meeting with a certain girl… “We’ll do our best! Wake Up, Girls!”
