Kaleido Star

Sora dreams of becoming a star, but a scumbag steals her luggage and makes her miss the only audition of the year.

Sora is given a week to learn the Golden Phoenix, the signature move of the leading lady; if she fails, she'll be forced to pack up and return home forever.

Sora must dress as a clown and hand out toys instead of performing on stage.

Sora gets a second chance to appear in Cinderella, but she'll need to master the Triple Illusion to earn a spot on stage.

Sora and her friends are stung by their failures on stage and a nasty review; Sora's dad is about to visit, and is no fan of the Kaleido Stage.

Sora stumbles upon an abandoned seal and can't resist the urge to bring it home with her.
