The anime’s story centers on sisters F\u016b and Rui, who used to be close, but have been a bit distant from each other recently. One day, F\u016b encounters a mysterious spaceship and gains magical powers. At that same time, Rui also gains magical powers, and both transform into the adults they dream to be. The sisters’ powers come with two conditions: their magic powers can only be used in one year, and no one must know about it. Unaware of each other’s secrets, F\u016b and Rui become active as idols.<\/p>\n

Takako Ohta<\/a> and Y\u016b Mizushima<\/a>, who voiced Y\u016b Morisawa \/ Creamy Mami and Toshio Ohtomo respectively in the Magical Angel Creamy Mami<\/a> anime franchise<\/a>, also appear<\/a> in the anime as guest cast members.<\/p>\n
