Happy is one of the Idols ruling the Technolike metaverse, responsible for the search function. He was subsequently archived by the Captain (the security idol) for helping Like, Annette, and Max, thereby breaking the system's rules.

Character:
Happy is playful, a bit naive and silly, but incredibly loyal. He resembles a faithful dog, willing to help his friends even at his own expense. His fearlessness in the face of the Captain, when he stood up to protect Like and the others, is the main proof of his devotion and courage.

Eye color: Black and blue

Status
Occupation: Idol

Omgus is Technolike's content idol. "The furry darling of all Technolikes."

Character:
A rather sweet and mischievous cat with intelligence and the ability to speak. He loves to bet and is very honest when he loses. Basically, he's like a normal cat, with the same habits.

Vika has lilac skin and bright blue eyes. Her long purple hair is neatly pulled back into a ponytail. She wears blue square-framed glasses, which give her an intelligent appearance. Her costume consists of a blue bodysuit over a white scientist's coat. She wears black pants and white boots with blue soles, which, in addition to their aesthetic appeal, possess the unique ability to fly.

Ban's visual appearance perfectly reflects his chaotic and aggressive nature. His skin has a green tint, and his eyes are either green or red, depending on his mode. His white hair is always tousled and sticks out in all directions. He always wears a black bandana with a green cross—his symbol.
Ban is dressed in a black T-shirt, over which are several belts adorned with crosses. Beneath this are wide-legged pants with green stripes and black sneakers. He wears fingerless gloves, emphasizing his practical and informal approach to work.

Capabilities:
When he's working, he wears completely black cyberpunk-style glasses. And when he needs to ban someone, he uses red crosses, which he throws like shurikens. Just one touch of these crosses bans someone for a set period of time.

Like is a humanoid idol with pinkish skin. Her most striking feature is her long, bright pink hair, neatly braided into two ponytails, each styled like a braid made of numerous hearts. She always sports beautiful makeup and a smile. Her eyes are a rich pink. An interesting detail is the change in eyelid color: when Annette uses Like's body, her eyelids turn light blue instead of a rich pink.
Like wears a pink and lilac dress with a skirt shaped like a rounded heart. The hem and waistband are trimmed with a white and blue stripe. Her sleeves and tights are crimson, with white diamond-shaped elements at the knees. She wears white heels with red soles and a decorative heart. Like almost always wears a small crown on her head, emphasizing her status.

Occupation: Idol

Like is a popularity idol in the Technolike metaverse. Initially a virtual celebrity, her fate changed dramatically after an unexpected avatar swap with a fan named Annette. As one of the ruling Idols, Like oversaw all processes related to ratings and likes on Technolike. The turning point came with the finale of her own contest in the second episode ("Showtime Begins!"), when an attempt to mass-like user Annette led (thanks to Rose) to a system failure and the exchange of their digital bodies. This event jeopardized her status and forced her into a forced collaboration with Annette.

Character:
Like is an extremely contradictory personality, deeply dependent on public recognition. For her fans, whom she affectionately calls "my likes," she creates a flawless image of a "darling"—a sweet, charming, and always smiling idol with flawless makeup. However, in private and under stress, her true nature emerges: arrogant, hysterical, rude, and obsessed with her ratings. A drop in popularity of even 0.01% can trigger a panic attack and aggression in her. She is painfully self-centered, rarely admits mistakes, and tends to blame others for everything. This is most clearly evident in her reaction to the avatar swap with Annette—Like not only fiercely resisted the situation but also placed all the blame on Annette. She stubbornly defends her opinion, even when she secretly knows she's wrong. At the same time, when she finds herself in a stressful situation in someone else's body, she is capable of hypocrisy and can abruptly change her manner of communication if this is necessary to achieve her goals.
Her main values ​​are herself and high ratings, and she cannot stand those who despise or underestimate her.

Occupation: Idol

Viki is one of the Idols ruling the Technolike metaverse. She is responsible for storing, processing, and organizing all information within the virtual world. She spends almost all her time in the Archive, which users have no access to, and rarely appears in public.

Character:
Viki is a quiet, calm, and incredibly patient person. She possesses immense self-control and is ready to help in any situation, even if she doesn't fully understand the problem. Her kindness and trusting nature sometimes border on naivety, but deep down, she's a true perfectionist: she meticulously checks every detail and won't rest until the information is perfectly organized. Despite her gentle nature, Viki is a smart aleck in a good way: she's well aware of her intelligence and proud of it, but never values ​​it above others. She values ​​order, peace, quiet, and knowledge, and detests chaos—though, due to her patience, she's forced to put up with it almost constantly. Viki often gets so caught up in her work that she forgets about meetings and other Idol events, simply skipping them. Sometimes she asks Ban to help her carry heavy archives or search for files, but mostly he just sits next to her while she works, and they chat about various things. According to her 2D profile, her sensitivity to affection is 0.00042%—presumably, Vicky either doesn't notice the hints or simply doesn't care about them, which makes for a funny contrast to Ban's obvious concern (such as when he comes to her defense during the sound of the Cleaner's explosion, gets annoyed by the Captain's presence, or waves goodbye to her).

Name: Ban

Occupation: Idol

Ban is one of the Idols ruling the Technolike metaverse. As an Idol of Order, he is responsible for enforcing the rules, identifying violators, and punishing them with temporary or permanent exclusion from the system—a ban. Despite his official role, his methods and character are far from the ideal of a fair judge.

Character:
Ban is the living embodiment of the contradiction between his position and his personality. Formally charged with maintaining order, he is rude, impolite, hot-tempered, and prone to unmotivated anger. He often acts on emotion rather than cold calculation, making him unpredictable and dangerous. His interactions with users and even other idols are laced with sarcasm and ridicule. He clearly enjoys humiliating those under his control, especially if he considers the offender stupid. It is precisely stupid users, in his opinion, that he detests most. However, behind this aggressive mask, a good sense of humor and a unique straightforwardness sometimes peek through. He is not hypocritical or pretending to be a kind judge—he is who he is: an irritated and effective instrument of punishment. His main, and perhaps only, passion is the ability to ban violators left and right, although the strict system protocols often limit this desire, forcing him to wait for actual violations. Despite this, a single offender can cause Ban to accidentally hit the wrong avatar with his shurikens; Max is a prime example of such a victim. Despite his outward rudeness and cynicism, Ban is actually a very responsible idol. He receives the entire stream of complaints and violation notifications from users and other idols, and he handles this avalanche, even if his job is not a joy.

Occupation: Idol

The Captain is a new Idol, activated by protocol at the end of Episode 3 to troubleshoot and stabilize the Technolike system. As a Security Idol, he is tasked with troubleshooting and investigating incidents, adhering to strict protocols. In essence, his primary task is to find the source of the threat.

Character:
The Captain is a character with a cold, formal, and arrogant nature. Outwardly, he is always calm, self-confident, and speaks detachedly, strictly following algorithms. He is charismatic and considers himself a leader, often making plans and viewing others—both avatars and idols—as pawns at best, and at worst as a hindrance or object of investigation. He is polite within the bounds of protocol and may even smile if someone acts strictly according to the rules. However, his politeness is formal. When faced with unconventional behavior or insubordination, he becomes strict, demanding, and ruthless, justifying his actions by the need to "restore order." Cold judgment, arrogance, devotion to protocol, exactingness, and a desire for absolute control. He likes it when everything goes according to plan and under his control, and cannot stand insubordination and chaos. He can even archive any idol if they refuse to cooperate during

Appearance:
The Captain's color scheme is cool. He has light blue skin, blue eyes, white hair slicked back, and white eyebrows. He wears a white and silver suit with a texture reminiscent of scales. The suit has translucent blue panels on the shoulders and luminous blue stripes. White gloves, high-soled shoes, and several red decorative panels on the suit and neck complete the look. According to some users (Avatar in an interview in Episode 3), he looks attractive.

"Technolike" is a metaverse, a virtual world where real-world users spend most of their time for entertainment purposes. They earn likes, gain fame, have fun, and enjoy themselves. But this world also has its own rules that must not be broken, or they'll be banned. Users enter this world through a helmet, and once they're there, their appearance changes to match their avatar. "Technolike" is like a city, but with more opportunities and technology. Just like in games, you can change your appearance, communicate with other users, have fun, like and comment, and even own your own home.

And who maintains order and entertainment? The "idols," of course.
Idols are a group of key characters, artificial intelligences that govern the Technolike metaverse. Each idol is responsible for a specific aspect of the system and possesses unique abilities and personality. They typically appear to users as anthropomorphic avatars and wield significant power within their spheres of influence. Idols represent the highest level of administration and the embodiment of Technolike's rules. They are artificial intelligences (AIs) created to maintain order, popularity, information, and other functions within the virtual world. Incidentally, idols don't require human needs like food, sleep, and toileting (they don't even know what those are).

Plot:
The main character is 11-year-old schoolgirl Anya Titova (Annette), who has no friends in real life. Trying to fix this, she decides to take part in a metaverse competition called "Like a Dream."
Suddenly, a mysterious technical glitch occurs at the competition's opening ceremony, causing Anya to switch avatars with local idol Like—a narcissistic neural network princess who understands nothing about human emotions.
Now Anya has to:
take on the duties of an idol;
pass the test of glory;
find true friends;
unravel the cause of the failure.
