Kabuki-bu!

Kurogo Kurusu loves kabuki and wants to share it with classmates who see it as distant and difficult. Starting high school, he sets out with his friend Tonbo to create a club where they can perform it themselves. Recruiting members proves harder than expected, especially when enthusiasm must compete with other interests and the intimidating weight of tradition.

As an unlikely group takes shape, Kurogo has to turn affection for the stage into practical rehearsals, workable performances and stories an unfamiliar audience can follow. The members bring different talents and private anxieties, and building a production gradually becomes a way of finding confidence in one another.
