The series revolves around a boyish, straightforward girl who moves to the city to pursue her dream of track and field. However, she stumbles upon a hiring announcement for a manager-in-training for LIPxLIP, a popular idol group composed of her classmates. Despite the shocking revelation, she resolves to do her best in balancing her studies, her ambition, and her role as LIPxLIP’s attendant.
The series showed potential in the beginning with its unique charm and relaxing atmosphere. It was praised for its innocence and warmth.

In conclusion, “Heroines Run the Show: The Unpopular Girl and the Secret Task” offers an intriguing blend of drama and music. While it may not be perfect, it provides an entertaining viewing experience with its unique storyline and interesting characters. Whether you’re a fan of idol shows or looking for a heartwarming anime series, “Heroines Run the Show” is worth checking out.
