What happens on the card

Drawn like a colour manga page. The KIRA KIRA LIVE: a giant LED screen, spotlights from the truss, and an idol with pink twin tails dancing a new pose on every beat. Two catwalks fork through the audience, left and right, each ending in a big green ring, and she sends glowing stars down one or the other on the beat. Tap on that side when the star is in its ring: PERFECT! or GOOD!, and the show turns to you, the spotlights swing over, the light sticks on your side flash. The song gets richer as it goes, stars between the beats, quick left-right pairs, and big hearts across both catwalks tapped with two fingers. Ten in a row and it is FEVER TIME, a manga cut-in of her face across the page, rainbow lights, double points. At the end the music stops, she calls their name, the cake rises on the stage lift, and she winks with a peace sign behind it, their age above.

Who it is for

Music lovers and concert goers, idol and J-pop fans, K-pop fans, rhythm game players, singers, and anyone whose birthday deserves a stage.
