Looking for something new to watch this weekend? Crunchyroll has just announced the addition of one of CloverWorks fan-favourite films, now available to stream in the UK.
Trapezium is directed by Masahiro Shinohara (Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World- Season 3 Counterattack Arc), written by Yuko Kakihara (Buddy Daddies; Blue Box) and produced by CloverWorks (SPY x FAMILY). The film is based on the original novel by Kazumi Takayama and follows high school student Yu Azuma who will do whatever it takes to become an idol. She’s even sworn to stay off social media and promises not to get a boyfriend. Ready to make her dream a reality, she decides to find three other girls from the four corners of her prefecture to form an idol group. But the road to stardom hides unexpected trials that threaten to undo all she’s worked for.
