Under a bright rainbow on a sparkly set, five people in rainbow pastel outfits form a band with instruments, including a boy playing an Ultra Light Sax, a woman in a wheelchair jamming out with a Type Player on her lap, and a woman with magenta-tipped hair in the center, singing into a microphone. Everyone reaches up as sparkly confetti falls on them.
The woman with magenta-tipped hair now sits for an interview and a green bubble rises with text.

“I want people to know the joy of expressing themselves more freely through music. That’s why we decided to form the Yuru Music Almost All Stars.”
Members of the Yuru Music Almost All Stars band appear one at a time on the cheerful sky background, smiling and posing for the camera in slow motion. Lastly, Shiori sings on a raised platform with Japanese text on the front of its cloud façade while other band members play music around her. A woman in a wheelchair is being interviewed.

AYAKO
“If you always try to find new ways to do things that are unique to you, so many things in life will become more fun and creative.”
A backstage clip of Ayako in her wheelchair is on screen. Then the whole band marching past with a smiling marshmallow-like mascot floating above them. A band member taps a wine glass, another plays a trumpet-shaped instrument made of plastic blocks and computer wiring. Ayako sings. Another behind the scenes clip shows them all on set in front of studio lights and filming crew.
