What happens

Yell (エール) is a Japanese television drama series and the 102nd Asadora series, following Scarlet. It premiered on March 30, 2020 and concluded on November 27, 2020. It was the first Asadora to be recorded in 4K, and the first since Musume to Watashi to be broadcast in only five 15-minute episodes per week Monday through Friday, with omnibus airings on Saturday mornings instead of a fresh episode.
