Moe Hyūga (If My Favorite Pop Idol Made it to the Budokan, I Would Die anime) is again composing the music.

The manga's comedy story centers on a woman called "Eripiyo," who is an extreme idol fan. She is wildly enthusiastic about Maina, the shy and lowest-ranking member of the minor underground idol group Cham Jam that performs in Okayama Prefecture. She gets so wrapped up in her love for Maina during a particular performance, that she has a major nosebleed. Eri will continue to give her complete devotion to Maina until the day she can perform at Budōkan (a major performing venue in Tokyo).

The live-action television series version premiered in October 2022.

Hirao launched the manga in releasing the manga in English digitally and in print.

The manga inspired a television dub.
