It has been serialized in Tokuma Shoten's seinen manga magazine Monthly Comic Ryū since August 2015. The story revolves around Eripiyo, an extremely devoted fan who supports Maina Ichii, the least popular member of the underground idol group ChamJam. Eripiyo's obsession is so intense that she spends all her money on Maina's merchandise and often experiences nosebleeds at concerts due to her excitement. To help Maina reach the Budokan, Eripiyo works tirelessly, sacrificing everything for her idol. The manga has been adapted into an anime television series, which aired from January to March 2020, produced by Eight Bit. Furthermore, a live-action television drama aired from October to December 2022, followed by a live-action film in May 2023.
