Super Tokimeki♡Sendenbu's unprecedented live-streamed drama "Retry, Youth!" will be broadcast on terrestrial TV for the first time.

■The day that will be broadcast is the actual first day, which will not be included on the Blu-ray, and if you miss it you will never be able to “retry” again!

The TV premiere of the drama “Retry, Youth!”, in which Cho Tokimeki♡Sendenbu starred for the first time, will be broadcast on TOKYO MX from 7pm on August 25th.

“Retry, Youth!” is an unprecedented “live-streamed drama” that was streamed on Rakuten TV on March 29th, 30th, and 31st.

The entire school building was rented out, and the performance was filmed nonstop for 120 minutes with multiple cameras switching between them, and then streamed in real time. The suspense of not knowing what would happen until the very end, which is unique to live streaming, the viewer participation projects that change every day, the improvisation of the performers, and the moving storyline led to viewers saying, “I want to watch it again and again!”, and on the first day of streaming, “#RetryYouthAtSchoolChu” became a trending topic on social media, showing excitement.

Recently, it was announced that the Blu-ray of “Retry, Youth!” will be released on September 18th. On social media, there were many happy comments such as “I’m so happy that it’s being released on disc,” “I’m so happy that I can watch it as many times as I want,” and “I’ve already pre-ordered it!”. In commemoration of the release of the Blu-ray, a signing event is planned to be held at a certain location in Tokyo, and while there is excitement, it has now been announced that “Retry, Youth!” will be broadcast on TV for the first time!

The broadcast will air the live broadcast of the first day of the show, March 29th (Day 1), with the same atmosphere as the day itself. The performance will be delivered in its entirety, with the tension that is unique to the first day. Don’t miss the performance of the theme song “Retry, Youth!”, which will be broadcast on terrestrial TV for the first time.

It has also been decided that a “Try to Become a Trend! Hashtag Campaign” will be held in conjunction with the broadcast. During the broadcast, people can post on X (formerly Twitter) with the hashtag “Retry Youth Attending School”, aiming to become a trend while enjoying the broadcast in real time. Details will be announced on the official X (formerly Twitter) account at a later date.

The first day of the broadcast will not be included on the Blu-ray. This means that if you miss this broadcast, you will not be able to “retry” it again! Be careful not to miss this one-time opportunity.

[Synopsis of “Retry, Youth!”]
Sora (Tsujino Kanami), Sumire (Ann Julia), Ichigo (Sakai Nika), Momoka (Koizumi Haruka), Hinata (Suda Manaki), and Midori (Yoshikawa Hiyori) are second-year high school students. The six, who have never met before, are gathered by popular teacher Rino to perform a dance performance at the farewell party for the third-year students. Ichigo is appointed as the team leader, on the condition that she is exempt from failing the class, without telling anyone. Ichigo struggles to bring her disjointed teammates together, but just before the performance, an incident causes a rift in the team.

“I don’t want to have to repeat the year!” she said, and time leapt back 30 minutes to before the incident. Ichigo saves her friend from a pinch and makes her confession a success!? And to make the performance a success, she runs around the school and keeps retrying to make sure everything goes well. Furthermore, the real reason why the six of them were gathered together gradually becomes clear. Will the six of them be able to come together and make the farewell performance a success?

■Kanami Tsujino
I was surprised when I heard that “Retry, Youth!” would be broadcast on terrestrial TV! I think the realism and tension that only a live broadcast can provide is one of the highlights! We spent about two months facing our roles, thinking, worrying, laughing together, and sometimes crying as we created this work! This is Tokinobu’s first lead role in a drama, and I hope as many people as possible will enjoy it!
■Ann Julia
It has been decided that “Retry, Youth!” will be broadcast on terrestrial television. I am very happy that so many people will be able to watch the live-streamed drama that all the members worked on for two months. I hope that through this work, we can deliver courage and power to as many people as possible.
■Hikaru Sakai
This was my first attempt at a live-streamed drama, and I was nervous, but we all worked together to create this piece! I hope you’ll pay attention to each member’s acting, as well as the changes in Ichigo’s state of mind, which I play! I hope you enjoy the thrill that can only be experienced in real time!
■ Haruka Koizumi
“Retry, Youth!”, our first lead role, will be broadcast on terrestrial TV! We are idols, so we tried our hand at acting! It’s a little embarrassing, but we’re happy that so many people will be able to see the emotions and expressions that we don’t usually show. This production made me realize once again how much I love acting, so please spread the word on social media!
■ Aiki Suda
I’m very happy that our first challenge, the important live-streamed drama “Retry, Youth!”, which is full of youth, will be broadcast on terrestrial TV! I remember how happy I was when I heard about the drama, which was one of my dreams, in which I would star in a group! I hope that it will reach more people through terrestrial broadcasting!
■ Hiyori Yoshikawa
We practiced a lot for the nonstop live-streamed drama “Retry, Youth!”, and it will be broadcast not only over the three days of production but also on terrestrial TV, so we’re excited that a lot of people will be able to watch it! We hope that you can feel the touching story of youth, not just with the idols, Cho Tokinobu, but with us, the actors!
