Sansantaru Gosan
A lighthearted assemblage which organizes theatrical performances, painting exhibitions, etc. Group members handle scriptwriting, direction, art and design, and management. The members, who once engaged with society as “girls,” concoct fantasy-oriented stories with a slightly dark worldview under the theme of the “girl.”
