Orphan presents the first English-subtitled version of the 1990 comedy (or dramedy) OVA *Kimama ni Idol* (Free-Spirited Idols). Part screwball comedy, part melodrama, the show tells the story of two teenagers, Haruka and Natsuki, who win a lottery and run off to Tokyo to enjoy life. There, they meet a third girl, Fumiko, and decide to form an idol group and break into show biz. It's not cheap, it's not easy, and at times, it's not safe. VHS encode. For more information, see [this blog entry](https://collectr.blogspot.com/2022/10/kimami-ni-idol.html).  Includes a 90 second promo for the show's soundtrack, not translated. This release, and all Orphan releases, are available for direct download from IRC bot Orphan|Arutha in channels #nibl or #news on irc.rizon.net.
