What kind of story will they be coming up with and what does a turtle have to do with all of it?
From one chill episode to another, it seems that the series is focusing on the day-to-day lives of the Hoshimori, or Star Guardians, for now. Not only do they serve as humanity's hope against the Irous, but they do also need to fulfill their duties as students.

In this week's episode, Miki was complaining about having to study during vacation season, and Haruka reminded her that she already failed her most recent exams. If she did not pass the next one, she will not be allowed to attend the upcoming Holy Tree Festival. This was enough of a warning to get Miki studying.
The Holy Tree blesses the Hoshimori with celestial powers in order to combat the mysterious alien invaders known as the Irous.

Why is everybody excited about it, and why do they need to prepare a play in order to celebrate it?
There is peace for now as the Irous invaders pull their wits together and plan their next assault. The upcoming episode may be all about fun and games, but one can't help but wonder just how long this calm will last?
