The story centers around Saiko Bichitaru making her grand return to the rock star business two years after [[WebAnimation/Supermarioglitchy4sSuperMario64BloopersTheRapperBobArc taking down Bob's ego with her breakthrough hit "Darkest Hour"]]. For this return, she's assembled an all-new band, with the now-human Meggy Spletzer on the drums, Shroomy on the bass guitar, and Whimpu on the keyboard. All four of them combined produce great music their audience loves, and Saiko was reliving her dream.
