It follows Iroha Sakayori, a high school student who discovers a mysterious baby that rapidly grows into Princess Kaguya. As they collaborate in the virtual world, they face challenges from forces trying to reclaim Kaguya. The film features a notable voice cast and a vibrant soundtrack from renowned Vocaloid producers. Produced by Studio Colorido, Cosmic Princess Kaguya! is now streaming, offering a visually stunning experience with unique character designs and a blend of traditional and modern storytelling.
