Summary[]

This story is about Kirara Hoshizuki, a girl who lives in Hoshimidai, a town with a beautiful starry sky. Kirara, who goes to elementary school, is unable to confess to her longing senior and gets depressed because of this.The king of Mariland appears and invites Kirara to Mariland to see a wishing star that grants her wishes.

Kirara meets and becomes friends with Mariland citizens, including My Melody. Kirara waits for a starry night in Maryland, but the wishing star falls to the ground before she can tell her wish, and the star shatters into pieces. On top of that, the collision of the wishing stars damaged the trumpet at the entrance to the human world, making it impossible to return to the original world.

On the other hand, Sorara, the Prince of the Wishing Star, who fell on the wishing star, was also transformed into a chick by Baku's words, and when the star was shattered, he lost his magical power and returned to his original state so he couldn't go back to his country.

After the wishing star incident, a strange incident occurred in Mariland where the power of the star fragments caused the residents who had a fleeting dream to go out of control. In order to solve this case and return to her original world, Kirara and My Melody have to work hard to collect star fragments.

However, weathercaster Haruka Amamiya appears several times in the form of TV programs and goods owned by the king, and Santa Claus appears in the Christmas episode of episode 38, as long as it does not cause contradiction. There are appearances. Furthermore, in the final episode, there are many human characters from the previous seasons that appear.
• At first glance. it can be said that the style has changed significantly from the previous My Melody seasons, but the general theme of "recovering people's dreams" has not changed.
