Crunchyroll have recently confirmed that the feature-length idol drama film, Trapezium, is now available to stream on Crunchyroll in the UK in Japanese with English subtitles.
Trapezium is an anime film animated by CloverWorks, and is directed by Masahiro Shinohara with the story written by Yuko Kakihara, and received a limited cinematic release at Scotland Loves anime last year.
Synopsis: In order to achieve her dream of becoming an idol by any means necessary, Yu Azuma, a first-year student at Joshu East High School decides to seek out three beautiful young girls from each of the four corners of her prefecture (north, south, east, and west) to form an idol group. As she searches Joshu from north to south and east to west, she finds her three soon-to-be fellow group members. From Holy Teneritas Southern Girls’ Academy comes second-year Ranko Kashima, a high-class girl with a distinctive curly hairstyle who admires Ochofujin (“Madame Butterfly.”). From West Tech Vocational High School comes Kurumi Taiga, a girl who wears cute, oversized jackets with long sleeves and aims to win the championship at a robotics competition. The final member, Mika Kamei, hails from Joshu North High School, a kind-hearted girl who dedicates her time to volunteering. With the help of Shinji Kudo, Yu’s “collaborator” and confidante, Yu brings together these three young girls and sets the stage for their road to idol fame and stardom.
