The anime takes place 2035 where virtual reality technology has evolved enough that people can experience world travel and other live event experiences from the comfort of their own home. In this space, idols perform live events for a worldwide audience. As worldwide popularity of idols performing in "VR Rooms" increased, the Kanon Private Academy was established on Beginning Island to train new idols. These idols compete and strive to reach the top of the "World Idol League." The anime will focus on the six idols who make up two units "StarRing" and "Shadow."

Where it came from
Idol Memories was produced by Glovision and aired in late 2016 as a multimedia project designed to bridge the gap between virtual idol culture and traditional anime. The series focuses on the competitive yet supportive world of idol academies, aiming to capitalize on the popularity of music-themed anime genres during that period. The production was closely tied to a concurrent mobile game and live-streamed content, attempting to create a more interactive experience for viewers than a standard television broadcast.
The character designs and animation style were crafted to reflect the bright, polished aesthetic common in mid-2010s idol franchises. While the series sought to immerse audiences in a narrative about rival schools, it faced significant challenges in building a lasting footprint within a saturated market. It is often remembered today as a distinct example of the era's experimentation with transmedia storytelling, though it remains a niche entry in the broader landscape of music-focused anime.
