A Guide to the Japanese Anime Song "Unmei Kyōdōtai!" from "The Café Terrace and Its Goddesses"
"The Café Terrace and Its Goddesses" is a manga series by Koji Seo. Shun Kasuga, a male university student who has passed the entrance exam for the University of Tokyo, returns home after three years upon hearing the news of his grandmother's death following a disagreement. Stepping into the coffee shop "Familia," run by his grandmother, Shun encounters five beautiful girls who work there. These girls include the fashion-focused Sakura Makuwaza, the karate-loving and comedy enthusiast Akisui Tsurugawa, the former child actress and university student Ryusei Tsukishima, the aspiring chef Shirokiku Ono, and the part-time band member Kureha Hozoji. These girls, living and working at "Familia," were devoted to Shun's late grandmother, the former master of the café.
"Unmei Kyōdōtai!" was used as the opening theme for the first season of the anime.
