SYNOPSIS
Nijika is a sixth grader who looks far older than she is, which comes in handy when she needs to keep her life private. Her mother was a famous actress, but Nijika has spent years avoiding the entertainment industry altogether.

One ordinary day, while running errands with her pet Kapitama-kun, Nijika stumbles onto a film set in crisis. The lead actress has fallen ill, and the production is scrambling. Without thinking twice, Nijika volunteers to fill the role.
