A rich girl obsessed with gyaru fashion and her three friends doing absolutely nothing important is somehow the most restful thing you'll watch all year. The show knows exactly what it is: four girls existing together, no plot required, no stakes, just the specific warmth of hanging out with people who make you laugh without trying. It costs nothing to watch and gives back everything.
Wakaba Kohashi comes from a wealthy family and looks every bit the elegant rich daughter, but what she really admires is gyaru fashion and the free, carefree attitude that goes with it. She starts high school hoping to reinvent herself as a trendy gyaru, and on the first day she befriends three classmates. Moeko is pure and innocent, almost like someone from a fairy tale. Mao is capricious and does things her own way. Nao used to be the athletic type but is now devoted to boys-love stories. Together the four trade glimpses of each other's lives through school festivals, waterpark outings and gym tests, in a short comedy built on everyday moments.
