Stories are lies meant to entertain, and idols lie to fans eager to believe. This is Ai's story. It is a lie, but it is also true.

Ruby wants to be an idol for herself and for the little girl who died from cancer. The real world, however, doesn't care about big dreams: something Aqua knows all too well.

Despite different motivations, Aqua, Ruby and Kana’s key to success in the entertainment industry is the same; to achieve their goals, they need to play the game.

Remember what you said in righteous outrage online? There were consequences. You never saw them, but that didn't make them any less real, nor hold you any less accountable.

Focused on revenge, Aqua underestimated Akane and gave the talented actress a way to win his heart. If love is a game, Akane is playing for keeps and Kana is falling behind.

MEM-cho has fans. Ruby has looks. But Kana has...? She’ll need to find the answer before she can be anyone's star. Later, a fresh opportunity sets Aqua on a new path to revenge.
