Synopsis

Mahiru Kouzuki, a skilled artist, gives up on her passion after her elementary school classmates ridicule her colorful jellyfish mural. Several years later, upon encountering an unexpected admirer in Kano Yamanouchi—a former idol with a troubled past—Mahiru decides to pursue her childhood dreams once more.

Tasked with designing the mascot for Kano's new music project, JELEE, Mahiru enlists the help of her childhood friend and professional streamer Kiui Watase to make JELEE's first music video. Together with Kim Anouk Mei Takanashi, a pianist and fan of Kano's work as an idol, the girls aim to turn JELEE into a global hit. However, if they want to succeed in this ambitious endeavor, they will first have to free themselves from the shackles of their pasts.

Preliminary (4/12 eps)

Cute girls, killer music, and the behind-the-scenes story of modern Japanese entertainment, along with subtle fanservice and beautiful animation—prepare yourself for a treat with Yoru no Kurage wa Oyogenai.

This anime is special in almost every aspect. The animation is breathtaking; you can tell they put their heart and soul into the first episode. The way the characters move, the vibrant colors, and the stunning jellyfish drawings—it's evident a lot of thought went into the animation.

Mixed Feelings

Preliminary (3/12 eps)

YoruKura is a harmless, cute, and easily digestible anime. I liked the theme and vibe for sure, but was disappointed by the screenplay of first three episodes.

YoruKura chose a topic that belongs to this era: the dual identity in virtual and real world. The main characters, who were not happy with their mundane life, acquired new identities through the internet as creators. "If I become someone different, will I get a chance to shine?" This is a topic with so much to explore, yet the first three episodes told the stories of four characters at a surprisingly fast pace that merely scratch the surface. As ...
