Ralph arrives in the anime halfway through the series. He is the president of Metro Records, and he has become interested in the Japanese music industry. He is also very interested in Lucifer- Sakuya in particular. Lucifer works under the Jupiter Records label, and is in competition with the Metro Records performers. Ralph has a personal grugde against Sakuya (see Sakuya&#039;s bio) that causes him to do his best to destroy Lucifer. He schedules conflicting events, spreads malicious Lucifer gossip to the press, etc.

After the break up of their old band, guitarist Yuki &amp; drummer Santa decide to form a new one. They recruit bass player Towa, young guitarist Atsuro, and after much persuasion, vocalist Sakuya. Together they form Lucifer and they struggle to make it in the music business, and also to stay together. As well, they have to deal with personal issues, such as parental objections, and watching their old bands succeed ahead of them. Sakuya is the most troubled band member, as he has to deal with his tragic past, and his relationship with teenaged lyricist Aine. <br>

Aine never wanted to be a writer; she just created some erotic song lyrics for the sake of entering a contest. When she bumps into a man she doesn't know and looses the lyrics, she thinks she'll never see them again, but she thought wrong! He turns out to be Sakuya, a famous rock vocalist known for his sexy persona and lyrics. When he invites Aine to be his new lyricist, she finds herself quickly sucked into the harsh world of showbiz... and the even harsher world of falling in love with a guy that millions of girls love just as much!
