Paripi Koumei: Road to Summer Sonia

Ancient Chinese strategist Zhuge Liang Kongming awakens in modern Shibuya centuries after his death and discovers a world with no need for old battlefields, yet plenty of warfare inside the music industry. There he hears Eiko Tsukimi sing and decides that her talent deserves a far larger audience.

Instead of soldiers and horses, Kongming applies his tactics to clubs, festivals, and social media, turning each career obstacle into a battle of timing, alliances, and carefully planned deception. As Eiko moves closer to performing on the stages she has always dreamed about, she learns that strategy can open the door, but the voice that walks through it still has to be her own.
