Rumiko Takahashi's martial arts comedy manga.
This will be 9nine's first theme song for a live-action television project since its member lineup changed in September of last year. The group's name comes from the original 9-member lineup at its founding in 2005, but it now has five : Umika Kawashima, Star Driver.
The song "Chikutaku☆2NITE" is about teenaged girls all dressed up and heading out to a party. It will be available as a ringtone on December 7, followed by a single release on December 21. 9nine will then hold a concert on January 28 at the Shinagawa Stella Ball in Tokyo.
In the story of the special, Akane (Aragaki) is determined to protect the family's legacy, its dōjō. However, her father Soun (Ryōsei Tayama). Now Akane holds the key to the story.
