Her secret: she's really the heir to a martial arts dojo that's having trouble attracting any students to develop into possible heirs. She needs to find some strong people... but she's an IdolSinger, so she can't. So she [[WholesomeCrossdresser disguises herself as a boy]] and enrolls in the toughest junior high school she can find.
