Minato Yukina is a second-year student at Haneoka Girls' High School and is the cold and fierce leader of Roselia. She is a powerful vocalist, sparking the admiration of the other Roselia members. She is next-door neighbors with Imai Lisa, who is also her childhood friend, and considers Mitake Ran somewhat of a rival. 

Yukina has a cold-blooded and cut-throat attitude towards reaching her goals, cutting down any obstacles in her path. She expects nothing less than perfect and takes practice very seriously. Because of this, she has no qualms with chiding or insulting someone if she feels they are underperforming. She is openly dismissive and unkind to people she deems below her standards.

However, with the people she warms up to, she is not quite as nasty as usual. She also has a soft spot for cats, though she refuses to admit it.

Kasumi Toyama was enthralled by the stars as a young girl, so when she discovers a trail of star-shaped signs one day after transferring to a new school, she can't help but follow them. They lead her to a shop run by the grandmother of one of her new classmates, and Kasumi finds something that will change her life forever: a star-shaped guitar! And just like that, Kasumi knows that forming a band is her destiny. 
 
Of course, convincing Arisa and her grandmother to sell her the guitar won't be easy, and finding a group of other girls who want to become musicians will be even harder. But when a girl has stars in her eyes and a starbeat in her heart, there's nothing that will stop Kasumi from making her fantasies come true!
