Show by Rock!! (stylized in all caps; also known as Show by Rock!! Gonna be a Music Millionaire!) was a Japanese mobile rhythmvideo game developed and published by Geechs (later Edia), in conjunction with Sanrio. It was Sanrio's first-ever franchise project aimed for the older demographic and the company's first music-based franchise. The game was released on July 30, 2013, for iOS and on June 27, 2014, for Android devices. In January 2018, development transferred from Geechs to Edia with its service discontinued on December 26, 2019. A successor to the original game was later developed by Now Production and published by Square Enix on March 12, 2020, on all mobile platforms with its service discontinued on November 30, 2022.
Four anime adaptations based on the series were made. The first three animated by Bones and is the first late night anime based on a Sanrio character or franchise. Season 1 aired in Japan between April and June 2015 on Tokyo MX, a short anime aired from July to September 2016 and a second season aired from October to December 2016. The third season of the series was animated by Kinema Citrus and aired from January to March 2020. A fourth season aired from January to March 2021. A manga adaptation of the first series began serialization in Kadokawa Shoten's Young Ace magazine in July 2020.
Gameplay
Show by Rock!!
Show by Rock!! was a mobile game, combining elements from both rhythm games and raising sim games. Players could choose from 26 different bands, each having their own music style and uses special cards for each gameplay. The player's team could have up to five cards, and choose one support player from a list. The player had a certain amount of "soul" for each element depending on their cards. The player could play whichever song they would like from the band of their choice, as well as the level that worked with their team. Occasionally, a band's members' Melodisian Stones may turn dark, and thus a boss battle appears. For the boss battles, you may only choose a song from the band whose Melodsian Stones turned dark, and the goal for each boss battle is to survive until the end. Players also got to create their own character at the start of the game, and design their own room.
Fes A Live
Gameplay for Fes A Live was similar to that to the original series that preceded it, but presented it in a landscape format similar to The Idolmaster and BanG Dream!. Unlike the previous game, the game only had a limited amount of bands presented but each are assigned to their musical alignment: Melody, Harmony and Rhythm instead of the traditional elemental attributes of the previous game. Gameplay for the live section mode had the same elements from the original and inherits newer twists such as swipeable notes, the ability to adjust scrolling speed and a more traditional 5-note layout.
A new feature of the game was the town of GURF, which served as a main hub for the player. Players had to customize with specific buildings in order to gain sound dollars, the game's free currency. These could also be earned by obtaining items after each play session specific to each band, which could be sold to the shop and also could level up each band. As the player leveled up, newer slots in the town were added in order to add more buildings. Also, players could also upgrade buildings by buying them through the in-game store using sound dollars as well. The game also had a boss battle mode, which could be accessed through by finding a corrupted myummon in town and defeating it could earn players with more currency. The game's bromide system also returned, allowing players to obtain bromide cards through gacha using Melodisian Stones and each card could be evolved if certain levels are reached, each having various rarity. In addition to a story mode, the game also had a 69 Memorial Mode, which allowed players to read the storyline of the original anime series for new players of the game.

Master is a hedgehog cat Myumon and the owner of Studio UNZ, the place where both Mashumairesh!! and Dokonjofinger usually practice. He treats the two bands like part of his family and guides them in various ways through their music.
Rocker (ロッカー, Rokkā)
The main protagonist of Fes A Live and also the main avatar for the player, Rocker is a Myumon of unknown species (appearance is depended on the customization by the player) who once lived in GURF, a town in the outskirts of Midi City which has since declined due to lack of tourism from music bands. One day, he revisited his family's music shop and found an old amplifier, which is possessed by the spirit of Jeepe Parisugawa. Jeepe asked Rocker to help him revitalize tourism in GURF and also solve the mystery behind his death. On his mission, met up his old friend: an amateur photographer and paparazzi named Rameca and told her to join in. As he and Rameca helped each other with their mission, they also investigate strange appearances of Dark Monsters all over Midi City.
Rocker's closer friend, Rameca is a Chinchilla Myumon as well as an amateur photographer and writer for articles on Midi City's best bands. Though a newbie, she aims to be the best reporter in all of Midi City, which also the reason she joined Rocker's cause on boosting music tourism in their town. Her name is a play on the word “camera.”
A deceased ghost who has possessed an old amplifier inside Rocker's old music store. He was once a famous guitarist in Midi City and appeared in GURF 69 years ago, before his mysterious death after a live show, causing his soul to wander all over Midi City. He asked Rocker to revive the old town back to its former glory.

In the end, he teamed up with Maple in order to defeat her and change the future.
The true main antagonist of season 2. A female devil Myumon, she is known as the Queen of Darkness, who rules the planet Ordinis, a harsh world filled only with people desiring results and efficiency. As a child, she and her best friend Astreal both believed in justice and loved to sing together. However, by the end of the exams, she came to believe that only the strong can survive and the weak die when she fell from a cliff after Astreal betrayed her even though she helped Astreal earlier. This caused her Melodisian stone to be corrupted, resulting in her becoming cold, evil and bitter, hating music, and her heart being filled with hatred, rage, and jealousy. When she gained new powers from the darkness, she ended up scaring Astreal into falling off the cliff and claimed the throne as the new ruler of Ordinis.

Reception
Nick Creamer of Anime News Network gave the first episode a positive rating, stating that the "debut was a wild merry-go-round of delirious nonsense, but most of it was the enjoyable kind of nonsense" and "this was a wild and largely entertaining debut, but it also leaves me with plenty of reservations. Shows that rely on novelty to stay interesting often fizzle out quickly, and Show By Rock!!'s premise doesn't necessarily seem unique or engaging enough to have much staying power once the sparkles fade."[42] However, Amy McNulty gave the first two episodes a B+, saying that "Show By Rock!! is hard to pin down. It's like a pinch of Di Gi Charat, a dash of The Idolmaster and a quart of Sanrio-style magical girls mixed together and thrown into a frenetic cyberpunk setting. It attempts to do too much at once, yet it manages to juggle plot points fairly well so far."[43]
The popularity of the anime is also shown at the 30th Sanrio Character Ranking with Plasmagica ranking at sixth place and Shingan Crimsonz at second place.[44]
