But the other girls studying at the Natsumeya teahouse are all unusual in their own ways, and it’s clear from the beginning that Chiya’s going to be great friends with studious Kon, rambunctious Koume and shy Nono.

And just in case that isn’t exciting enough, the “ClassicaLoids” have added Giant Robots and spectacular light shows to the mix!
