A short anime of Show By Rock!!
Metropolis of music, MIDICITY. A kitty girl wearing gothic lolita clothing named Cyan is scouted by Maple Arisugawa, the president of a music agency. From there, she meets Chuchu (a pun off of the sound that rabbits make) the honor student rabbit girl, a net geek dog girl named Retoree (from "Retriever"), and an alien sheep (?) girl named Moa. Together, they form the band named "Plasmagica," and aim for the top of the world.
However, the path there is long and tough, and keeping in high spirits is important. By battling against other strange bands, Plasmagica slowly grows toward a top-grade band. In the end, they'll be a band that becomes the driving force of MIDICITY's music industry... Maybe?
Gonna be a music millionaire!

Where it came from
Show By Rock!! Short!! was produced by the animation studio Bones and released in 2016 as a spin-off to the original Sanrio-produced Show By Rock!! series. This series of bite-sized shorts was designed to expand upon the whimsical, music-focused world of Midi City, serving as a lighthearted companion piece that allowed for more focus on the daily interactions and comedic quirks of the various bands established in the franchise.
The character designs retained the distinct, stylized aesthetic developed for the main series, which successfully bridges Sanrio's legacy of character-based branding with the high-energy sensibilities of modern idol and band-themed anime. By emphasizing humor and character personality over the overarching plot of the main series, the show was received as a charming supplement that solidified the franchise's appeal to fans of musical comedy and character-driven storytelling.
