There's nothing like music and art to disturb the heat and so it was banned in this dystopian society controlled by the anti-music DES. The year is 0048 and one group of brave young women are out to rebel against this law by resurrecting a long forgotten J-Pop band called AKB48.
The newly dubbed AKB0048 are out to bring music back in the world and they'll do everything in their power to make it happen. Armed with not only their voice and dance moves but also weapons and battle gear, these girls are a force to be reckoned with.
So watch out, as these girls will lay their life on their line to defend their right to share their music with the world.
