* VeryLooselyBasedOnATrueStory: There are factual elements to the story. Miyavi really did tear a ligament during a soccer game that effectively ruined his chances at a professional soccer career, which devastated him.

[[caption-width-right:253:The official DVD cover]]
The year is 2004.
Twenty-three year old rock star [[Music/{{Miyavi}} Miyavi Ishihara]] is a major music sensation in his home country of Japan. A superstar of the thriving VisualKei underground scene, he can barely walk out of his apartment in Tokyo without being mobbed by adoring fans, playing sold out venues night after night. This is the life he wanted, the life he left his little home in Osaka City when he was seventeen to live. But a life in the limelight can get exhausting, and he’d be lying if he didn’t say there were times where he missed home. So one night, he decides to get into the car and go to Osaka for a visit, and falls asleep on the way.
Except when he wakes up, he’s no longer in the car. He’s stranded on the train tracks in last night’s clothing, and his hometown looks decidedly unfamiliar. He doesn’t recognize the locals, and can’t figure out why they don’t recognize him, or why [[IWasQuiteAFashionVictim they’re all wearing outdated clothes.]] Things get weirder and weirder, until he realizes with a sinking feeling…
[[TimeTravel It’s]] [[TheEighties 1984.]]
So what’s a famous musician stuck backward in time to do? Start a band, of course!
