**[03:08] ---**
Coming!
**[03:11] ---**
Good work today, guys.
**[03:12] ---**
Thanks!
**[03:14] ---**
That went great!
**[03:16] ---**
Thanks.
**[03:17] ---**
I know you guys must be tired,
but there's one more game you have to do.
**[03:23] ---**
A punishment game?
**[03:24] ---**
Why?
**[03:27] ---**
We're actually going to be doing an
interview for the Backstage Pass anime?
**[03:33] ---**
No shit?
**[03:34] ---**
Reiji has to meditate!
**[03:37] ---**
Right now?
**[03:40] ---**
Let me see if I've got clothes...
**[03:41] ---**
That anime thing's been going forward, huh?
**[03:46] ---**
Um...
**[03:48] ---**
Let's start with this:
tell us how you got into ARP.
***SIGN*** How did you get into ARP?
**[03:53] ---**
Well,
**[03:54] ---**
the first thing I want you to know is
that while we're professional performers,
***SIGN*** Performing Arts Department
**[04:00] ---**
we're also students at ISM.
**[04:17] (Flashback) ---**
Who can tell me the 3rd note in this chord?
***SIGN*** Shinji Kanou
**[04:26] (Flashback) ---**
Nobody? Nobody knows?
**[04:31] (Flashback) ---**
Kanou-kun, then.
**[04:34] (Flashback) ---**
Yes.
**[04:36] (Flashback) ---**
Were you paying attention?
**[04:37] (Flashback) ---**
I'm sorry, sir.
**[04:39] (Flashback) ---**
What's the 3rd...
**[04:40] (Flashback) ---**
A flat.
**[04:43] (Flashback) ---**
It's A flat.
**[04:45] (Flashback) ---**
Then... what's the next note?
**[04:50] (Flashback) ---**
G flat.
**[04:51] (Flashback) ---**
Bravo.
**[04:59] (Flashback) ---**
Okay, who can tell me about this next chord?
**[05:34] (Flashback) ---**
I'm home.
**[05:55] ---**
I've studied the violin, piano,
ballet, and many other fine arts
**[06:00] ---**
since I was a child.
**[06:02] ---**
The violin, especially.
**[06:03] ---**
My father was a musician,
so I've even done recitals.
**[06:22] ---**
But... I wasn't able to
live up to his expectations.
**[07:20] (Flashback) ---**
All right.
***SIGN*** I'm waiting in the chairman's office
**[07:41] (Flashback) ---**
A heart?
**[07:49] (Flashback) ---**
Excuse me.
**[07:56] (Flashback) ---**
Shinji Kanou...
**[07:59] (Flashback) ---**
Our top student in terms of both
grades and performing skills.
**[08:02] (Flashback) ---**
Wonderful.
**[08:04] (Flashback) ---**
Artist Republic Performers.
**[08:07] (Flashback) ---**
A group composed of some of
Japan's finest singers and dancers,
**[08:10] (Flashback) ---**
with the skills to compete
on a global level.
**[08:13] (Flashback) ---**
That's ARP.
**[08:18] (Flashback) ---**
Welcome to ARP.
**[09:35] ---**
ARP.
**[09:40] ---**
ARP.
**[09:44] ---**
Rebel Cross's old name was Cross Bone.
**[09:49] ---**
We were a four-man band, based out
of a concert hall in Yokohama.
**[10:11] ---**
Concert halls, street performances...
**[10:13] ---**
We made some money,
**[10:15] ---**
and well, we had some good times.
***SIGN*** Daiya Koumoto
***SIGN*** Reiji Hida
**[10:37] (Flashback) ---**
What the hell's this?
**[10:39] (Flashback) ---**
Some kind of coupon?
**[10:42] (Flashback) ---**
I hope it's for a restaurant.
**[10:45] (Flashback) ---**
What? A fan letter?
***SIGN*** Your concert was great
**[10:47] (Flashback) ---**
Hey, gimme some more noodles.
**[10:54] (Flashback) ---**
Dude, stop ordering extra noodles.
We're broke this month.
**[10:58] (Flashback) ---**
Rock dies the second you start
thinking about money.
**[11:02] (Flashback) ---**
We'll die before rock does. Of starvation.
**[11:05] (Flashback) ---**
Fine by me.
**[11:09] (Flashback) ---**
What do we do now?
**[11:12] (Flashback) ---**
With what now?
**[11:13] (Flashback) ---**
The concerts are going fine.
**[11:15] (Flashback) ---**
We ain't rich, but we ain't dying
in the street, either.
**[11:18] (Flashback) ---**
It's pretty fun too, sure.
**[11:21] (Flashback) ---**
But this isn't it, right?
**[11:35] (Flashback) ---**
Mother Earth can shove global warming up her ass.
**[11:38] (Flashback) ---**
Dude, don't talk smack about Mother Earth.
Is your air conditioner broke?
**[11:47] (Flashback) ---**
Who the hell are you?
**[11:48] (Flashback) ---**
Sorry to intrude. Reiji Hida-kun
and Daiya Koumoto-kun, right?
**[11:55] (Flashback) ---**
Producer?
***SIGN*** Planning & Sales HQ
ARP Producer
**[11:58] (Flashback) ---**
ARP? From those cards?
**[12:01] (Flashback) ---**
So if we go to this ISM place and
study there, we can make it big?
**[12:06] (Flashback) ---**
Yup. You'll be given
scholarships and free tuition.
**[12:10] (Flashback) ---**
You can have rooms
at the dorm too, if you want.
**[12:13] (Flashback) ---**
For free, of course.
**[12:17] (Flashback) ---**
Ow!
**[12:18] (Flashback) ---**
You might not know this, man,
**[12:21] (Flashback) ---**
but we can hit it big any time we want.
**[12:23] (Flashback) ---**
We're at the point where we're throwing
10,000 yen bills in the garbage
**[12:28] (Flashback) ---**
just 'cause we don't have a place to put them.
**[12:33] (Flashback) ---**
Of course. Yeah, I'm sure.
**[12:36] (Flashback) ---**
But I hope you'll consider it.
**[12:39] (Flashback) ---**
It's not a bad deal.
**[12:40] (Flashback) ---**
Debut. Free tuition.
Dorm. And three meals a day.
**[12:45] (Flashback) ---**
Three meals? Three meals a day?
**[12:47] (Flashback) ---**
Um, okay. Three meals a day.
**[12:49] (Flashback) ---**
ISM's got a great cafeteria.
I'll make it happen.
**[12:53] (Flashback) ---**
What's your take, Daiya?
**[12:55] (Flashback) ---**
Debut. Free tuition. Dorm.
And all you can eat 24 hours a day.
**[12:58] (Flashback) ---**
You just said that last one now, right? Right?
**[13:01] (Flashback) ---**
Um, okay.
**[13:02] (Flashback) ---**
If it keeps your mind focused
on your lessons and your concerts,
**[13:07] (Flashback) ---**
that's more than fine with me.
**[13:17] (Flashback) ---**
I can see that you're willing
to roll out the red carpet for us.
**[13:22] (Flashback) ---**
We'll think about it.
**[13:23] (Flashback) ---**
But don't get your hopes up.
**[13:26] (Flashback) ---**
Okay. I hope to hear from you soon—
**[13:28] (Flashback) ---**
Anyway, we have a concert to go to.
**[13:47] (Flashback) ---**
That was a tough negotiation.
**[13:49] (Flashback) ---**
Yeah. We won't have to worry
about money for a while.
**[13:56] (Flashback) ---**
We're gonna hit it big he says, Reiji?
**[13:58] (Flashback) ---**
Yeah. Not that I don't think
the guy's a con man.
**[14:03] (Flashback) ---**
But maybe we can get to the next stage.
**[14:07] (Flashback) ---**
The next stage...
**[14:10] (Flashback) ---**
Yeah. You're right.
**[15:04] ---**
ARP.
**[15:09] ---**
ARP.
***SIGN*** Leon Fujiwara
**[15:34] ---**
I really wanted to be in ARP.
**[15:39] ---**
I saw the other guys singing on the stage,
**[15:43] ---**
and I just thought it was amazing.
**[15:46] ---**
The performance was just incredible.
**[15:48] ---**
So cool.
**[15:51] ---**
I wanted to be up on the stage with them, too.
**[18:35] ---**
Leon-kun makes everything he does look easy.
**[18:38] ---**
He's super-fast when he's recording, too.
**[18:40] ---**
Yeah, he just burns right through it.
**[18:42] ---**
He says, "I wish I could
sing more, but this is fine."
**[18:46] ---**
I see.
**[18:47] ---**
And he has something he's
not very good at, right?
**[18:50] ---**
He does?
**[18:51] ---**
What is it?
**[18:53] ---**
This is a picture he drew, right?
***SIGN*** Thank You
**[18:56] ---**
That's right. Miia-tan.
**[18:58] ---**
Cute, huh?
**[21:10] ---**
Hello there, all you out there
watching *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[21:14] ---**
Hi there.
**[21:15] ---**
Is anybody actually watching?
**[21:16] ---**
I'm sure there.
**[21:16] ---**
So, ARP's anime, *Backstage Pass*,
has finally begun.
**[21:23] ---**
How did you like it?
**[21:24] ---**
Did you enjoy it?
**[21:26] ---**
I sure did!
**[21:27] ---**
He wasn't asking you.
**[21:29] ---**
Hey, hey, Kanou-kun.
**[21:31] ---**
Kanou-kun...
**[21:33] ---**
What? Wait, are you deliberately
calling me "Kanou-kun"?
**[21:35] ---**
I figured the people watching
wouldn't know who you are.
**[21:38] ---**
They're not gonna recognize the guy
with the glasses and goofy hair.
***SIGN*** Guy with Glasses
**[21:42] ---**
Yes. That may be right, right.
**[21:44] ---**
I'm Shinji. It's me.
**[21:47] ---**
I'm the guy in the glasses.
**[21:48] ---**
Quiet, you.
**[21:50] ---**
Shinji-kun had the goofy hair,
**[21:52] ---**
Goofy hair?
**[21:52] ---**
but what about Reiji-kun
and Daiya-san? Was that okay?
**[21:55] ---**
You shouldn't be allowed to show that.
**[21:57] ---**
No, it wasn't that bad.
**[21:58] ---**
Looking back, it's a little bad, yeah.
**[22:02] ---**
But Leon, your intro
was kind of cheating, right?
**[22:07] ---**
Yeah, that's right.
**[22:08] ---**
They showed Rebel Cross back
when we were still kind of amateurs,
**[22:15] ---**
but Leon-kun's intro was
basically like a promo video.
**[22:19] ---**
It totally felt like I was
the main character.
**[22:23] ---**
Shut up. You don't get to say that.
**[22:26] ---**
Why didn't they show those weird
t-shirts that you always wear?
**[22:29] ---**
That's not fair.
**[22:30] ---**
I don't wear weird t-shirts.
**[22:31] ---**
You sure do!
**[22:32] ---**
You do, actually.
**[22:33] ---**
Anyway, let's move on.
**[22:36] ---**
So this anime will show you the things
you can't see from our stage,
**[22:40] ---**
in other words, our backstage.
**[22:42] ---**
It's documentary-style,
with interviews with us and our friends,
**[22:47] ---**
and dramatic reenactments of things
that really happened.
**[22:50] ---**
You'll be able to see us not just as performers,
**[22:52] ---**
but get to know the real us.
**[22:55] ---**
So yeah, that's fine, but...
**[22:56] ---**
No, it's not fine, it's important.
**[22:58] ---**
Speaking of our friends, Matsumoto.
**[23:01] ---**
He has a lot of screen time.
***SIGN*** Matsumoto-kun
**[23:02] ---**
Yeah, can you let a guy like
that on the screen?
**[23:05] ---**
He's just a normal dude.
**[23:07] ---**
As the interviewer,
he had more dialogue than us.
**[23:10] ---**
That's right.
**[23:11] ---**
But yeah, there'll be lots of characters
like him, or the chairman,
**[23:15] ---**
people who you'd need to get to
know to understand our lives.
**[23:20] ---**
And it's only going to
get more dramatic from here.
**[23:23] ---**
We hope you enjoyed the first
episode of ARP Backstage Pass.
**[23:28] ---**
Episode 2 will feature me, Shinji,
**[23:32] ---**
and show you how I came to make my debut.
**[23:34] ---**
All together...
**[23:35] ---**
Look forward to it!
**[23:37] ---**
See you soon!
**[23:37] ---**
I hope you'll watch every week!

**[03:21] ---**
Hm? Me?
**[03:24] ---**
What about me?
**[03:25] ---**
Shinji-kun is beautiful, both
as a person and a performer.
**[03:30] ---**
He's just so wonderful. I still admire him
even though we work together now.
**[03:34] ---**
A self-proclaimed prince with long bangs,
good breeding, and a conductor for a father.
**[03:39] ---**
A famous one at that.
**[03:41] ---**
The world-renowned Eiji Kanou.
He's considered a national treasure.
**[03:45] ---**
When I was young, just getting
praise was enough to make me happy.
**[03:49] ---**
That was all I really needed.

Paganini's Caprice No. 24, correct?
**[04:37] ---**
Um, yes, it is. Uh...
**[04:40] ---**
Oh, excuse me. You're Shinji Kanou-kun, right?
**[04:44] ---**
Yes. That's right.
**[04:46] ---**
They just asked you to go to the
director's office on the intercom.
**[04:55] ---**
Director's Office
**[04:55] ---**
Director's Office
**[04:58] ---**
Excuse me.
**[05:06] ---**
Shinji Kanou-kun.
**[05:08] ---**
Our top student in terms of
grades and performing skills.
**[05:11] ---**
Wonderful.
**[05:24] ---**
Artists Republic Performers.
**[05:28] ---**
A group composed of some of
Japan's finest singers and dancers,
**[05:32] ---**
with the skills to compete
on a global level.
**[05:35] ---**
That's ARP.
**[05:37] ---**
Finest singers and dancers...
**[05:40] ---**
So, idols, basically?
**[05:43] ---**
Yes. Your point?
**[05:46] ---**
I don't think that kind of thing is for me...
**[05:48] ---**
The son of Maestro Eiji Kanou becoming
an idol would be "inappropriate." Is that it?
**[05:56] ---**
He's got nothing to do with it.
**[05:58] ---**
I am my own person.
**[06:00] ---**
If there's nothing else, I'll be going now.
**[06:04] ---**
You are your own person...
**[06:06] ---**
Out of interest, when you say "I",
which "you" are you referring to?
**[06:16] ---**
The "you" who gets top grades and
outshines everyone at performing?
**[06:19] ---**
The "you" who spouts truisms even most
kids would be too embarrassed to say?
**[06:27] ---**
Or the "you" with bags of potential
who's letting it all go to waste?
**[06:32] ---**
That's pretty rude.
**[06:34] ---**
I want to figure out who you are.
**[06:38] ---**
Don't you want to know, too?
**[06:42] ---**
*Who... am I?*
**[06:48] (Flashback) ---**
Wow, you're so good!
**[06:50] (Flashback) ---**
I can tell you're the son of a maestro.
**[06:54] (Flashback) ---**
Who's that?
**[06:55] (Flashback) ---**
That's Eiji Kanou's son, right?
**[08:27] ---**
I'm...
**[08:40] ---**
I'm ho—
**[08:47] ---**
Welcome back.
**[08:47] ---**
Hey, what are you doing in my room?
**[08:53] ---**
How'd you get the key?
**[08:56] ---**
I don't wanna be here, either.
**[08:58] ---**
Mother told me I had to check in
on you every once in a while.
**[09:14] ---**
Who are you?
**[09:16] ---**
What?
**[09:20] ---**
If somebody asked you who you were,
what would you tell them?
**[09:30] ---**
"The real me is an idol."
**[09:32] ---**
Ridiculous.
**[09:36] ---**
*Oh, jeez. That's scary.*

Kanou-kun.
**[09:54] ---**
Thanks for your help yesterday, uh...
**[09:56] ---**
Matsumoto.
**[09:58] ---**
I'm in a lot of your classes, you know.
**[10:01] ---**
Sorry, Matsumoto-kun. I'll remember it now.
**[10:06] ---**
So?
**[10:07] ---**
"So"?
**[10:08] ---**
What'd the director say?
**[10:10] ---**
Oh, right... That.
**[10:18] ---**
ARP...
**[10:20] ---**
I see. The rumor was true, then.
**[10:24] ---**
So what are you going to do?
**[10:26] ---**
What am I going to do?
**[10:28] ---**
I can't just become an idol.
**[10:30] ---**
Hey.
**[10:37] ---**
Where's the director?
**[10:39] ---**
The director? His office
is on the third floor.
**[10:42] ---**
But first, you need to go to
the office on the first floor—
**[10:44] ---**
Third floor. Let's go, Rage.
**[10:57] ---**
Ugh, they're not transfer students, are they?
**[11:01] ---**
I wouldn't want guys like them at our school.
**[11:04] ---**
I hope not. But I think I recognize them...
**[11:10] ---**
ARP.
**[11:15] ---**
ARP.
**[11:19] ---**
Kanou-kun! Kanou-kun!
**[11:22] ---**
Oh, Matsumoto-kun.
**[11:24] ---**
Something incredible's happened.
**[11:25] ---**
Incredible?
**[11:27] ---**
This way. Come with me!
**[11:30] ---**
Those two guys we bumped into earlier
are potential members of ARP.
**[11:34] ---**
Huh? They are?
**[11:36] ---**
Look at this.
**[11:40] ---**
They're an indie band called "Cross Bone"
who are semi-big in Yokohama.
**[11:46] ---**
I can't believe it took me
so long to remember them.
**[11:49] ---**
I have audio, too.
**[11:51] ---**
Gimme a second.
**[11:53] ---**
No, I'm fine.
**[11:55] ---**
Really?
**[12:00] ---**
It's not my thing.
**[12:02] ---**
And I'm thinking of turning down
the offer to join ARP, anyway.
**[12:08] ---**
Kanou-kun, are you okay with that?
**[12:14] ---**
Whether it's your thing or not,
you gotta admit, they're pretty cool.
**[12:18] ---**
Visually and musically,
they understand their talent.
**[12:23] ---**
And that talent is a special one.
**[12:26] ---**
Kanou-kun, you're the same.
**[12:29] ---**
You might even say music loves you.
**[12:32] ---**
It'd be a waste to turn your back on it.
**[13:15] ---**
We'll adjust our schedule based
on the answers they give us.
**[13:28] ---**
That's everything.
**[13:31] ---**
Yes?
**[13:32] ---**
Excuse me.
**[13:43] ---**
I... want to know who I am.
**[13:54] ---**
This'll be fun, won't it?
**[13:56] ---**
Yes.
**[14:00] ---**
Let's put together a schedule
that will lead up to your debut.
**[14:04] ---**
D-Debut?
**[14:05] ---**
Yes.
**[14:06] ---**
First, we'll organize lessons for you
to get you ready for your performance.
**[14:10] ---**
It won't be easy.
**[14:11] ---**
O-Okay...
**[14:14] ---**
Thinking back, that was
the exact moment I joined ARP.
**[14:20] ---**
So back when we were in Cross Bone,
**[14:22] ---**
me and Rage were having an effect
on Shinji without even knowing it?
**[14:28] ---**
I didn't know you had
such a deep respect for us.
**[14:32] ---**
I'll give you my autograph later.
**[14:34] ---**
Wow, you sure put a lot
of thought into it, Shinji-kun.
**[14:37] ---**
And Cross Bone was seriously cool.
**[14:40] ---**
Those days really helped me grow up, yeah.
**[16:15] ---**
* Thank you for attending tonight's*
* AR Performance Concert.*
**[16:21] ---**
*I'm your MC for the evening, Iccho Mori.*
**[16:25] ---**
*Let's get on with the show!*
**[16:30] ---**
* I've taken to the stage countless times*
* for recitals since I was a kid.*
**[16:37] ---**
*But my legs are shaking!*
**[16:39] ---**
Nervous?
**[16:42] ---**
Tetsu-san.
**[16:43] ---**
It's a concert. You have to show
them what's really in your heart.
**[16:48] ---**
You need to entertain everyone in the hall.
**[16:52] ---**
Everyone in the hall?
**[17:04] ---**
And now, here for your enjoyment
is Shinji-kun live in concert!
**[17:07] ---**
With: "The World Is Mine."
**[17:10] ---**
*Who... am I?*
**[19:16] ---**
Shinji!
**[19:18] ---**
Shinji!
**[19:21] ---**
*I... I can be anything up here.*
**[19:27] ---**
*This is... where I belong!*
**[21:10] ---**
Hello to everyone out there
watching *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[21:13] ---**
Hello there.
**[21:14] ---**
In Episode 2, you got to see my story
and how I made my debut.
**[21:20] ---**
What did you think?
**[21:21] ---**
Did you enjoy it?
**[21:23] ---**
It was yawnsville! I barely got any screen time.
**[21:28] ---**
Next episode will be León-kun's last.
**[21:31] ---**
Nah, it won't.
**[21:32] ---**
Well, look. At this point, León
wasn't even part of ARP, right?
**[21:36] ---**
You'll show up in the next episode.
**[21:38] ---**
This episode was a story about how Shinji
looks down on the rest of us peasants.
**[21:43] ---**
That's total baloney, too.
**[21:45] ---**
I want you guys to tell me
what you really thought about it.
**[21:48] ---**
Okay, sure, I can do that.
I liked your little sister, Mari, "Big Bro."
**[21:53] ---**
Mari
**[21:53] ---**
"Big Bro."
**[21:54] ---**
Dude, you just crossed a line.
**[21:55] ---**
"Big Bro."
**[21:57] ---**
I figured you might say that.
**[21:59] ---**
Is she always so bratty?
**[22:02] ---**
When your sister talks to you, I mean.
**[22:04] ---**
Hm, yeah, I suppose...
In fact, she's probably worse.
**[22:09] ---**
Ha, seriously?
**[22:11] ---**
Is that the best you can come up with?
What about the theme of the episode?
**[22:15] ---**
Oh, yeah, the theme.
**[22:17] ---**
The dog was great.
**[22:18] ---**
The dog was cute.
**[22:20] ---**
Seriously cute.
**[22:20] ---**
Though, I guess even rich
people have problems.
**[22:24] ---**
I could tell Shinji had it pretty rough.
**[22:27] ---**
Yeah, you could say that.
**[22:29] ---**
Of course, it was a
dramatized version of events.
**[22:32] ---**
But well, there are reasons for that.
**[22:35] ---**
Yeah, 'cause you look down on peasants.
**[22:37] ---**
I so don't.
**[22:38] ---**
I'm a peasant too, you know.
**[22:40] ---**
Guys, guys, it doesn't matter.
**[22:43] ---**
Anyway, Matsumoto-kun got
way too much screen time again.
**[22:45] ---**
Matsumoto-kun
**[22:46] ---**
He got more lines than Rebel Cross.
**[22:48] ---**
We're cutting your dialogue
to keep the show from going to pot,
**[22:52] ---**
so it makes sense. But yeah,
he gets too much screen time.
**[22:55] ---**
Totally. And he talks too much.
**[22:57] ---**
But it's obvious you couldn't really tell
the story of my debut without including him.
**[23:03] ---**
But yeah, he showed up a lot.
**[23:04] ---**
Hey, I know!
**[23:06] ---**
Why don't we all take turns doing
Matsumoto-kun's lines next time?
**[23:11] ---**
We can each say a word in turn, yeah?
**[23:16] ---**
Okay, time for the preview.
**[23:18] ---**
Huh? Why are you ignoring me?
**[23:19] ---**
'Cause you're a weirdo.
**[23:21] ---**
We can't tell if you're
joking or being serious.
**[23:25] ---**
All right, guys, let's do the preview.
**[23:27] ---**
Okay, all yours.
**[23:27] ---**
Okay!
**[23:28] ---**
Next time, we present
the dramatic and sexy story
**[23:31] ---**
of how yours truly, Daiya, and my buddy,
Rage, made our debut as Rebel Cross.
**[23:34] ---**
It's Rage and Daiya,
not the other way around.
**[23:36] ---**
Shut your trap.
**[23:37] ---**
Look forward to it!

***SIGN*** Music can change the world.
**[01:36] ---**
What is Rebel Cross to me?
**[01:40] ---**
That's a good question.
Where should I start?
**[01:44] ---**
Our first concert, I guess.
**[01:48] [SONG]**
Dreams and love and hope
**[01:52] [SONG]**
become one now.
**[01:57] [SONG]**
And the era entrusts me with my fate.
**[02:01] ---**
A competition?
**[02:02] ---**
With that prince?
**[02:05] ---**
This concert is a battle between
Shinji-kun and Rebel Cross.
**[02:09] ---**
A battle?
**[02:10] ---**
The audience will be
rating you as performers.
**[02:15] ---**
That's part of what makes ARP unique.
**[02:22] ---**
So whoever gets the crowd
more fired up wins.
**[02:25] ---**
This'll be easy.
**[02:27] ---**
Yeah.
**[03:02] [SONG]**
Euclids rising to heaven,
**[03:04] [SONG]**
a freezing breath
shattering the glass.
**[03:07] [SONG]**
Yo, yo, K to the I, to the S, the S!
**[03:09] [SONG]**
I'm high speed, a man who can
bring down a hundred million.
**[03:12] [SONG]**
A hit to your synapses,
the wisdom of Thanatos.
**[03:15] [SONG]**
Speaking of our dreams with electric sheep.
**[03:18] [SONG]**
Even the herbivore
animals are gettin' it on.
**[03:21] [SONG]**
Get to work and break it up!
**[03:23] [SONG]**
Give me kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Open your lips!
**[03:26] [SONG]**
Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Oh! Kiss!
**[03:29] [SONG]**
If what you felt and
believed is your savior...
**[03:34] [SONG]**
Yo! Kids! Kids! Kids!
Go back to your wild state.
**[03:37] [SONG]**
Kids! Kids! Kids! Yo! Kids!
**[03:39] [SONG]**
Now dance! Dance! Scream! Scream!
**[03:42] [SONG]**
Let's go! Da! Da! Da! Da! Da! Da! Dance!
**[03:45] [SONG]**
Just kiss!
**[03:47] [SONG]**
Give us love and dreams and a future!
**[03:50] [SONG]**
Give me kiss!
**[03:52] [SONG]**
I'm the only one (the only one)
who wants you (who wants you)!
**[03:56] [SONG]**
Give me kiss!
**[03:58] [SONG]**
All alone, let's do this
and that and the other thing.
**[04:01] [SONG]**
Give me kiss!
**[04:03] [SONG]**
Just feel me (feel me) alone (alone)! Kiss!
**[04:31] ---**
Easy win, huh?
**[04:33] ---**
You got that right.
**[04:34] ---**
But the result was...
**[04:37] ---**
The winner is Shinji!
**[04:59] ---**
Why? We fired up the audience more!
**[05:04] ---**
This is bullshit!
**[05:06] ---**
We're going to that stupid
school for rich kids.
**[05:09] ---**
We're showing up to the damn classes.
**[05:12] ---**
We changed our style.
**[05:14] ---**
We changed our name!
**[05:17] ---**
And we still lost?!
**[05:20] ---**
Don't take it out on the furniture.
**[05:22] ---**
It doesn't bother you?
**[05:23] ---**
Shut up, of course it does!
**[05:49] ---**
Anyways... we just need to win next time.
**[05:57] ---**
After that, I got even more into my lessons.
**[06:01] ---**
But Rage...
**[06:12] ---**
What are you doing?
**[06:14] ---**
Down you go.
**[06:15] ---**
Oww.
**[06:17] ---**
That hurts! Hey! Damn it!
**[06:20] ---**
* Yeah, Rage and I have known*
* each other since we were kids.*
**[07:11] ---**
*We've been together ever since we were kids.*
**[07:50] ---**
*We always thought we were the best.*
**[08:03] ---**
What's that?
**[08:04] ---**
Boiled eggs. The woman
in the cafeteria gave them to me.
**[08:07] ---**
When did you get to be friends with her?
**[08:25] ---**
You're gonna fight to win next time, right?
**[08:28] ---**
Of course.
**[08:32] ---**
Then practice more!
**[08:36] ---**
I'm going to the lessons, right?
**[08:38] ---**
How many times do I have to
tell you that it's not enough?
**[08:41] ---**
What are you doing on your own time?
**[08:42] ---**
If you want to practice that badly,
you can do my practicing for me.
**[08:45] ---**
The hell did you say?
**[08:47] ---**
And stop getting shell everywhere!
**[08:48] ---**
Shut up.
**[08:50] ---**
Are you some kind
of obnoxious live-in girlfriend?
**[08:52] ---**
Who do you think you're talking to?
**[09:02] ---**
Wait, damn it!
**[09:03] ---**
Clean up the shell—
**[09:07] ---**
Hey, watch out!
**[09:08] ---**
Sleep on the first floor for a while.
**[09:10] ---**
I don't want you to be on my case
while I'm trying to sleep.
**[09:13] ---**
Hey!
**[09:26] ---**
*Fights were nothing new, but...*
**[09:35] ---**
*It felt like our gears had stopped meshing.*
**[09:42] ---**
ARP.
**[09:47] ---**
ARP.
**[10:00] ---**
Stop.
**[10:02] ---**
Rage, you're out of position.
**[10:05] ---**
Then the position should
move itself to be where I am.
**[10:08] ---**
That's the center of the world.
**[10:10] ---**
Stop screwing around.
**[10:11] ---**
I'm dead serious.
**[10:14] ---**
One more time.
**[10:24] ---**
I said stop screwing around!
**[10:26] ---**
I'm not, damn it.
**[10:28] ---**
One more time.
**[10:39] ---**
Hey, Rage. That's not the right pose.
**[10:41] ---**
Learn to ad-lib.
**[10:43] ---**
Don't ad-lib when you can't actually dance.
**[10:47] ---**
Stop.
**[10:49] ---**
What the hell is wrong with you?
**[10:50] ---**
You're totally out of sync.
**[10:53] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[10:55] ---**
I'm not feeling well so I'm leaving early.
**[10:57] ---**
What? Hey, wait!
**[11:00] ---**
I'm really sorry!
**[11:02] ---**
Don't worry about it.
**[11:04] ---**
I'm not the one up on that stage, you are.
**[11:10] ---**
I'll be going for today.
**[11:15] ---**
What are you doing?
**[11:17] ---**
I'm not feeling well.
**[11:19] ---**
Why won't you do this seriously?
**[11:21] ---**
Seriously?
**[11:23] ---**
We're "Rebel" Cross, not "Serious" Cross.
**[11:26] ---**
Google the damn word.
**[11:27] ---**
Don't bullshit me. Do this for real!
**[11:31] ---**
And what exactly is "real"?
**[11:33] ---**
Learning a song somebody else wrote,
and getting good at dancing?
**[11:36] ---**
You call that real?
**[11:37] ---**
That's right.
**[11:39] ---**
We chose this place ourselves.
**[11:41] ---**
Are we running already?
**[11:43] ---**
Stop talking bullshit
and do what you're told!
**[11:48] ---**
Then will you shake your ass
if they tell you to?
**[11:51] ---**
Will you strip if they tell you to?
**[11:54] ---**
Sure, I'll shake my ass!
**[11:55] ---**
I'll do whatever the hell they want!
**[12:00] ---**
Is that what Rebel Cross is?
**[12:04] ---**
Where are you going?
**[12:09] ---**
Rage!
**[12:15] ---**
What is he thinking?
**[12:17] ---**
Is he running?
**[12:19] ---**
"Is that what Rebel Cross is"?
**[12:20] ---**
Screw you!
**[12:24] ---**
So what is Rebel Cross, then?
**[12:28] ---**
Well, it's Rebel Cross, right?
**[12:34] ---**
But like... anyway...
**[12:37] ---**
Damn it!

Why don't you get it?

I refuse to let you and me not be the best.
**[13:14] ---**
Hey, Rage.
**[13:20] ---**
*It happens a lot.*
**[13:24] ---**
*He's like a cat, always running off...*
**[13:31] ---**
*Always disappearing...*
**[13:39] ---**
* And then showing back up*
* like nothing happened.*
**[13:49] ---**
I'm back.
**[14:05] ---**
* "Fine, then. Do what you want."*
* That's what I thought.*
**[14:25] ---**
Okay, that's all for today.
**[14:28] ---**
Thank you.
**[14:30] ---**
Tell Rage to get over his cold already.
**[14:33] ---**
Okay. Sorry.

**[14:40] [Messenger] ---**
Rage?
I ain't seen him, no.
**[14:45] ---**
He's not with senpai, huh?
**[14:47] ---**
That bastard blocked him.
**[14:51] ---**
I'm kicking his ass next time I see him.
**[14:51] ---**
Really? Rage-kun?
**[14:55] ---**
He's always so stoic. This isn't like him.
**[14:58] ---**
It's possible that in the
next concert they'll...
**[15:01] ---**
Hey!
**[15:03] ---**
What's going on with Rage?
**[15:04] ---**
Um...
**[15:06] ---**
Matsumoto-kun says he saw
Rage-kun practicing on his own.
**[15:11] ---**
Seriously?
**[15:11] ---**
No... well, yes.
**[15:13] ---**
When? Where?
**[15:14] ---**
Several times. In the middle
of the night. In the lesson studio.
**[15:46] ---**
I thought Rage was
more confident than that.
**[15:52] ---**
Maybe a fire's finally been lit under them.
**[15:59] ---**
And Kanou-kun, you were the one who lit it.
**[16:04] ---**
I was?
**[16:06] ---**
If you think they'll hit you,
run as fast as you can.
**[16:10] ---**
Okay...
**[16:16] ---**
*Rage's so hard to understand.*
**[16:22] [Messenger] ---**
Basic lessons
**[16:28] ---**
*He's been doing his best in his own way.*
**[16:43] ---**
* What was I doing? I just kept*
* obsessing over practice...*

you need to start paying rent.

I guess it's time to check out then.

Well, you know...
**[18:08] ---**

Our audience can change.

"Souls"?

**[18:53] ---**
Next time, we win.
**[19:01] ---**
Now let's kick some ass.
**[19:05] ---**
Let's show 'em our souls.
**[19:07] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:50] ---**
Hi there, all you folks
watching *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[20:55] ---**
So this episode featured the birth
of Rebel Cross as well as Rage and I.
**[21:01] ---**
How did you like it?
**[21:03] ---**
I didn't like it at all! I didn't get
a single second onscreen!
**[21:07] ---**
I told you last week that you're fired.
**[21:10] ---**
No, that's not what happened.
**[21:12] ---**
Listen, it was a story about
Rebel Cross this time, right?
**[21:15] ---**
What about Shinji-kun?
**[21:17] ---**
You got screen time.
**[21:19] ---**
So did Matsumoto-kun.
**[21:20] ---**
Matsumoto-kun
**[21:21] ---**
Well, that's... you know...
**[21:24] ---**
See?
**[21:24] ---**
It was one scene!
**[21:25] ---**
Forget it. Let's get back to the point.
**[21:29] ---**
Um, well... you know.
It was rough when we got our debut.
**[21:35] ---**
Right?
**[21:36] ---**
Especially you know, those serious scenes.
**[21:39] ---**
It's hard remembering them when we're
acting them out in the voice studio.
**[21:44] ---**
It's hard.
**[21:45] ---**
You're right!
**[21:46] ---**
It's like the feelings are being
dragged out of you.
**[21:48] ---**
When I was at home reading the scenes
**[21:50] ---**
I just started remembering it
and getting a little freaked out.
**[21:52] ---**
He was at home reading the script
and just getting pissed off.
**[21:57] ---**
All of a sudden he was like,
"Make sure you pre-read the script!"
**[22:01] ---**
And "Hey, go clean!"
**[22:03] ---**
True, true.
**[22:04] ---**
You should be doing that shit anyway.
**[22:06] ---**
Sure, Daiya-san was doing his best.
**[22:09] ---**
But he was giving
Rage-kun a lot of shit, too.
**[22:12] ---**
It's not like that.
**[22:14] ---**
Well, Rage-kun was doing his best, too.
**[22:16] ---**
He kept saying, "Let me do it again!"
**[22:18] ---**
Well, I've got a pro-attitude.
**[22:20] ---**
It's an uncompromising mach-speed fight,
when you're working with me.
**[22:23] ---**
Shinji-kun gave a lot of good advice, too.
**[22:27] ---**
He was like, "Don't breath there"
or "Emphasize this word".
**[22:32] ---**
Yeah he's obnoxious. He wouldn't shut up.
**[22:35] ---**
Who died and made him boss?
**[22:38] ---**
Master and Prince Shinji!
**[22:39] ---**
That's not it...
**[22:41] ---**
But you sure were watching
really closely, Leon-kun?
**[22:43] ---**
Well I didn't have any lines to read, so
I was just watching the whole time.
**[22:47] ---**
Don't whine.
**[22:48] ---**
And Daiya-san, shouldn't you
say something about that?
**[22:52] ---**
That part you liked a lot.
**[22:53] ---**
Oh, yeah... Um, that.
**[22:55] ---**
What was it? Oh yeah...
**[22:57] ---**
When I said, "Is that what
Rebel Cross is? Screw you!"
**[23:02] ---**
The voice assistant on my phone said,
in a cheerful voice, "That's right!"
**[23:09] ---**
I laughed so hard.
**[23:10] ---**
I kept laughing whenever we got
to that part. I had to stop.
**[23:12] ---**
Turn off your damn phone. You're a pro.
**[23:16] ---**
Sorry.
**[23:16] ---**
That's right. Yeah.
**[23:18] ---**
Anyway, we've got a lot
to learn as you can see,
**[23:21] ---**
but let's try not to cause trouble
for the rest of the anime staff.
**[23:24] ---**
And let's do our best!
**[23:25] ---**
Who's turn is it next episode?
**[23:26] ---**
That'd be me!
**[23:28] ---**
Fans all over Japan, it's time!
**[23:32] ---**
Next time, it's the story
of Leon-tan's birth!
**[23:36] ---**
Look forward to it!
**[23:37] ---**
Can I skip next week?
**[23:38] ---**
Nope.

***SIGN*** Music can change the world.
**[01:36] ---**
Okay, turn your attention thisaway.
**[01:39] ---**
It's the moment you've been waitin' for!
**[01:41] ---**
It's finally my turn.
**[01:43] ---**
León in da house!
**[01:44] ---**
This time, I'll be your MC,
so just call me "MC León."
**[01:50] ---**
Let me introduce you
to the members of ARP, 'kay?
**[01:53] ---**
First up, Shinji-kun. He's my senior,
and I wanna be just like him.
**[01:58] ---**
Next up, the two guys who make up Rebel Cross:
**[02:01] ---**
Rage-kun and Daiya-san.
**[02:02] ---**
They're cool, aren't they?
**[02:04] ---**
And last but not least: me, MC León.
**[02:07] ---**
There'll be plenty of time to watch
me perform later in the series.
**[02:10] ---**
So today, I'm gonna show you
what I was like when I was little.
**[02:15] ---**
My dad loved music and it was
ever-present when I was growing up.
**[02:32] ---**
León, your mixed juice is ready.
**[02:35] ---**
Okay!
**[02:59] ---**
Mom, your mixed juice is the best!
**[03:02] ---**
Why, thank you.
**[03:03] ---**
León, have you learned that song already?
**[03:06] ---**
You hit every one of those high notes,
*and* you aced the dance moves.
**[03:10] ---**
You're talented, all right.
**[03:14] ---**
Of course he is. He's my kid.
**[03:18] ---**
Hey, he's my kid, too. Isn't that right?
**[03:36] ---**
That'll be León.
**[03:40] ---**
Welcome back.
**[03:47] ---**
What's wrong?
**[03:49] ---**
León?
**[03:55] ---**
Did something happen at school?
**[03:59] ---**
I don't get it.
**[04:02] ---**
I don't get what being talented means.
**[04:04] ---**
If I say I'm talented, people get mad at me.
**[04:06] ---**
The tadpole is a little kiddy frog.
**[04:11] ---**
It's not the grandson of a catfish.
**[04:16] ---**
We know this because
it sprouts legs as it grows.
**[04:25] ---**
The tadpole is a little kiddy frog.
**[04:30] ---**
It's not—
**[04:31] ---**
León-kun?
**[04:32] ---**
Yes?
**[04:35] ---**
You're very *good*, but...
**[04:38] ---**
You can go as high as a girl can!
**[04:41] ---**
I can't go that high.
**[04:43] ---**
You're amazing, León.
**[04:45] ---**
Am I talented?
**[04:46] ---**
Yes, you are.
**[04:47] ---**
But please, sing like everyone else.
**[04:50] ---**
Nobody else can sing like that. Right, class?
**[04:53] ---**
I sure can't.
**[04:54] ---**
Me neither.
**[04:55] ---**
Not happening!
**[05:01] ---**
I don't want to be different.
**[05:03] ---**
I'll stop being talented.
**[05:07] ---**
León...
**[05:11] ---**
León. It's not your fault.
**[05:16] ---**
Right?
**[05:17] ---**
You're so silly...
**[05:20] ---**
When you sing with others,
you have to sing in unison.
**[05:25] ---**
But being talented is a wonderful thing.
**[05:28] ---**
It's a gift that God gave you.
**[05:31] ---**
A gift?
**[05:33] ---**
Your gift will make the whole world smile.
**[05:38] ---**
Make the whole world smile?
**[05:39] ---**
Yes. So start by smiling yourself.
**[05:44] ---**
If you keep on smiling,
something good is bound to happen.
**[05:48] ---**
If I smile...
**[05:52] ---**
Okay.
**[05:53] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:56] ---**
Even in tough moments like this one,
Mom and Dad showered me with love.
**[06:14] ---**
León!
**[06:16] ---**
I'm back!
**[06:18] ---**
There's something I want to show you.
**[06:20] ---**
Let's talk.
**[06:22] ---**
Sure!
**[06:24] ---**
What's this? Wait, what?
**[06:27] ---**
Really? Can I really go
to a place like this?
**[06:30] ---**
Yup. You bet.
**[06:32] ---**
You'll find people there
who understand you.
**[06:36] ---**
Gifted kids belong at
a school for the gifted.
**[06:41] ---**
Mom...
**[06:43] ---**
Hooray!
**[06:47] ---**
And so, I enrolled in ISM.
**[06:51] ---**
I was a little worried about
going to Tokyo on my own,
**[06:54] ---**
but my excitement drowned out my fear.
**[07:02] ---**
Out of this world!
**[07:04] ---**
Seriously cool.
**[07:06] ---**
I can't believe the view! Tokyo's amazing.
**[07:09] ---**
Wait, no, Yokohama's amazing.
**[07:14] ---**
This is gonna be great!
**[07:23] ---**
Hey, everyone!
**[07:26] ---**
Nice to meet ya!
**[07:27] ---**
I'm León Fujiwara.
**[07:29] ---**
My mom's Brazilian, and I grew up in Hyogo.
**[07:34] ---**
Nice to meet all of you!
**[07:35] ---**
I wanted everybody to know who I was,
**[07:37] ---**
so I decided I'd start out
with a song and a dance.
**[07:43] ---**
I'm León and I'm here to dance!
**[08:16] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[08:33] ---**
Huh?
**[08:37] ---**
Oh well. Things don't always work out.
**[09:24] ---**
Huh?
**[09:25] ---**
Shoot. My battery ran out.
**[09:34] ---**
Gotta keep smiling.
**[09:41] ---**
ARP.
**[09:46] ---**
ARP.
**[09:54] ---**
ARP?
**[09:56] ---**
Yes.
**[09:57] ---**
You can't miss this.
This concert's a must-see.
**[10:04] ---**
What are they like?
**[10:06] ---**
Go see them perform.
It'd be quicker than explaining.
**[10:08] ---**
I recommend you go, Fujiwara-kun.
**[10:12] ---**
You know who I am?
**[10:14] ---**
Yes.
**[10:15] ---**
I'm Matsumoto.
**[10:17] ---**
Good luck with your dancing.
**[10:20] ---**
Thanks!
**[10:27] ---**
*ARP, huh?*
**[10:31] [SONG]**
The world is mine.
**[10:33] [SONG]**
Dreams cross national borders.
**[10:38] [SONG]**
Take all the future!
**[10:40] [SONG]**
I will move the world.
**[10:42] ---**
Wow...
**[10:45] [SONG]**
The world is mine!
**[10:48] [SONG]**
I swear to love everything.
**[10:49] ---**
He's so cool.
**[10:51] [SONG]**
Yo! Kids! Kids! Kids!
Go back to your wild state.
**[10:54] [SONG]**
Kids! Kids! Kids! Yo! Kids!
**[10:56] [SONG]**
Now dance! Dance! Scream! Scream!
**[10:59] [SONG]**
Let's go! Da! Da! Da! Da! Da! Da! Dance!
**[11:02] [SONG]**
Just kiss!
**[11:04] [SONG]**
Give us love and dreams and a future!
**[11:07] [SONG]**
Give me kiss!
**[11:09] [SONG]**
I'm the only one (the only one)
who wants you (who wants you)!
**[11:11] ---**
This is it!
**[11:15] ---**
*I've finally found it.*
**[11:18] ---**
* I'm sure... I'm sure I can*
* make it up on that stage, too!*
**[11:34] ---**
Shinji-kun!
**[11:35] ---**
Uh, yes?
**[11:39] ---**
Yikes!
**[11:40] ---**
His aura... His aura's blinding me!
**[11:45] ---**
Hey, Fujiwara-kun.
**[11:48] ---**
Who are you?
**[11:51] ---**
Okay. Continue.
**[11:53] ---**
Do you need something?
**[11:54] ---**
Yes! Um... well...
**[11:59] ---**
Good luck with ARP!
**[12:01] ---**
Thank you. I'll do my best.
**[12:05] ---**
*What am I doing?*
**[12:07] ---**
*Why am I acting like some starstruck fan?*
**[12:09] ---**
What's wrong?
**[12:11] ---**
No, um... um...
**[12:15] ---**
I can't do it!
**[12:16] ---**
His aura's just too blinding!
**[12:19] ---**
Bye!
**[12:22] ---**
Talk about energetic.
**[12:24] ---**
Do you know that guy, Matsumoto-kun?
**[12:27] ---**
Yes, I do, though... I'm not sure he knows me.
**[12:34] ---**
Don't worry. I'm used to it.
**[12:42] ---**
What are you looking at?
**[12:44] ---**
Look over there.
**[12:47] ---**
He's working really hard.
**[12:50] ---**
Oh, him?
**[13:03] ---**
He's fast asleep...
**[13:05] ---**
Huh?
**[13:08] ---**
Hey, you're with ARP, right?
**[13:10] ---**
Um... Rage! You're Rage!
**[13:14] ---**
I'm meditating.
**[13:16] ---**
Hey, I wanna join ARP.
**[13:20] ---**
What should I do?
**[13:27] ---**
I saw your last concert,
**[13:30] ---**
and knew I had to be a part of your group.
**[13:34] ---**
I so want to join ARP—
**[13:35] ---**
Impossible.
**[13:37] ---**
Why?
**[13:41] ---**
You're not right for it.
**[13:44] ---**
We're stars, and you're—
**[13:47] ---**
What do *you* know about *me*?!
**[13:49] ---**
How do you know I'm not right for it?
**[13:51] ---**
Hey, let's have a sing-off.
**[13:53] ---**
We'll go to the courtyard and sing!
**[13:55] ---**
What do you say?
**[13:57] ---**
All right...
**[14:13] ---**
You colossal jerk!
**[14:19] ---**
Me Me?
León León?
Me Me León
**[14:19] ---**
Me
**[14:25] ---**
That's not right, either.
**[14:34] ---**
Mom
**[14:35] ---**
Mom
**[14:39] ---**
*León! You called finally!*
**[14:42] ---**
*How are you?*
**[14:43] ---**
Yeah.
**[14:45] ---**
*What's wrong?*
**[14:47] ---**
There's somebody at this school
with a dazzlingly bright aura.
**[14:52] ---**
Talented people are a class apart.
**[14:55] ---**
*I see.*
**[14:57] ---**
*So that's what's up.*
**[14:59] ---**
*But you're talented, too, right?*
**[15:04] ---**
*León.*
**[15:08] ---**
I'll be a star with a blinding aura, too.
So just wait for that day, okay?
**[15:14] ---**
*Yeah, I'm waiting.*
**[15:17] ---**
* Hey, León. If you keep on smiling,*
* something good is bound to happen, okay?*
**[15:28] ---**
How's León doing?
**[15:32] ---**
He's doing his best.
**[15:33] ---**
I see. Glad to hear it.
**[15:37] ---**
I was really taken aback
when Rage-kun stood me up.
***SIGN*** Rage-kun meditating in his dressing room
**[15:41] ---**
But thinking back, he was "meditating,"
so he probably doesn't remember it, huh?
***SIGN*** Rage-kun meditating on the bus
**[15:48] ---**
I danced in the courtyard every day.
**[15:51] ---**
And then, one day...
**[16:10] ---**
I've been watching you this whole time
**[16:10] ---**
I've been watching you this whole time
**[16:10] ---**
I've been watching you this whole time
**[16:10] ---**

I've been watching you this whole time
**[16:11] ---**
I've been watching you this whole time
**[16:11] ---**
I've been watching you this whole time
**[16:14] ---**
So what did you want to talk about?
**[16:18] ---**
He should be here any minute.
**[16:23] ---**
That must be him.
**[16:25] ---**
"Him"?
**[16:29] ---**
You?
**[16:33] ---**
Meet your new member.
**[16:35] ---**
I'm León.
**[16:38] ---**
But you can call me León-tan.
**[16:40] ---**
I *can*, but I won't.
**[16:42] ---**
And that's how I became a member of ARP.
**[16:47] ---**
Mom! Dad! I did it!
**[16:52] ---**
Four octaves, huh?
**[16:55] ---**
This is going to be fun.
**[16:56] ---**
Indeed.
**[16:59] ---**
This is Tetsu-san, the performance director.
**[17:01] ---**
You'll work with him on your
dancing up to your debut.
**[17:04] ---**
Debut?
**[17:34] ---**
León. You look like
you're not breaking a sweat.
**[17:37] ---**
Are you just slacking off?
**[17:39] ---**
Huh? Was I?
**[17:44] ---**
Just dance however you want for a bit.
**[17:47] ---**
Huh? But...
**[17:49] ---**
What's wrong?
**[17:52] ---**
I'll get serious, then.
**[18:08] ---**
You gotta be kidding... This kid's got "the gift."
**[21:20] ---**
MC León, at your service.
**[21:22] ---**
Hello to everyone out there
watching *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[21:26] ---**
Hello there!
**[21:28] ---**
My time in the spotlight has finally come!
**[21:30] ---**
How'd you like it?
**[21:32] ---**
It was all about me!
**[21:34] ---**
Yay!
**[21:35] ---**
Yay.
**[21:36] ---**
Okay, okay, settle down, yeah?
**[21:38] ---**
Don't go shouting "yay" like that.
**[21:40] ---**
Is it just me or did nothing
happen this episode?
**[21:42] ---**
That's not true.
**[21:43] ---**
It was an awesome episode. All about me.
**[21:47] ---**
Whether it was awesome or not, I don't know,
**[21:49] ---**
but it felt more like a trailer for León-kun.
Just like in the first episode.
**[21:54] ---**
Like I said before, this is the
director's solution to the problem:
**[21:59] ---**
"How do we keep León's lines to a minimum?"
**[22:01] ---**
"Problem"?
**[22:02] ---**
I'm talking about your awful pronunciation.
**[22:05] ---**
Rage-kun screwed up more lines than me—
**[22:07] ---**
You liar. You were messing up all the time.
**[22:09] ---**
That's not true!
**[22:10] ---**
I did *not* screw them up!
**[22:12] ---**
It was because the audience needed to *see*
León-kun's amazing talents, that's all.
**[22:18] ---**
Shinji-kun.
**[22:18] ---**
Yes?
**[22:19] ---**
You tell it like it is.
**[22:21] ---**
Yeah... Thanks.
**[22:22] ---**
Okay, okay, okay.
**[22:24] ---**
But what we *did* learn from this episode
**[22:26] ---**
is León-kun got his desperate need
for approval from his mom and dad.
**[22:29] ---**
Rage-kun, that's a mean way to put it.
**[22:32] ---**
But your parents are nice.
**[22:34] ---**
It's like they're your number one supporters,
and the people that understand you the most.
**[22:38] ---**
That's right.
**[22:40] ---**
Hey, Mom and Dad, are you watching?!
**[22:42] ---**
Shinji-kun just said you were great!
**[22:43] ---**
Hey, stop wasting the airwaves.
**[22:46] ---**
But my mom's a fan of Shinji-kun.
**[22:50] ---**
She's a "Princess."
**[22:51] ---**
You mean, she's got bad taste.
**[22:53] ---**
Thank you for your support, León-kun's mom.
**[22:58] ---**
Total baloney.
**[22:58] ---**
But well, it did show that the world
was watching the four of us.
**[23:03] ---**
That's why we were able to find this place.
**[23:07] ---**
Daiya, why are you trying
to turn this into a happy ending?
**[23:10] ---**
'Cause it had a happy ending.
**[23:12] ---**
It's okay to have some fun with it.
**[23:13] ---**
Don't you get it?
**[23:15] ---**
This is the part of the show where
we ruin the drama in the main story.
**[23:18] ---**
It is not! It so is not.
**[23:19] ---**
Sure it is.
**[23:20] ---**
Okay, so, uh, what's going
down in the next episode?
**[23:24] ---**
Episode 5 is an episode of Rage,
for Rage, by Rage, featuring Rage.
**[23:30] ---**
No, it isn't. It's just not, okay?
**[23:33] ---**
I'm in it, too.
**[23:34] ---**
Your part's been cut.

***SIGN*** Music can change the world.
**[01:37] ---**
Well, it's basically Rage, Daiya,
and the backup singers.
**[01:41] ---**
That's ARP.
**[01:43] ---**
ARP concerts are battles.
**[01:46] ---**
It's kill or be killed.
**[01:49] ---**
The only thing that matters is
who wins over the audience the most.
**[01:53] ---**
And the winner is... León!
**[01:57] ---**
All right!
**[02:01] ---**
*Hey, now... He won on his first time onstage?*
**[02:05] ---**
* Sometimes, a kid you'd*
* written off steals the show.*
**[02:14] ---**
Here we go.
**[02:22] ---**
Hey, you guys.
**[02:24] ---**
You killed it at the concert.
**[02:26] ---**
Here, I brought you these.
**[02:30] ---**
My mom sent them.
**[02:32] ---**
Thanks.
**[02:33] ---**
Wow, your mom's super nice.
**[02:36] ---**
When I told her I'd won, she was so happy.
**[02:40] ---**
She said it was totally awesome
that I beat Shinji-kun.
**[02:45] ---**
Talk about rubbing it in...
**[02:49] ---**
Thank you. I appreciate the gesture.
**[02:51] ---**
But next time, I won't lose.
**[02:53] ---**
Neither will I!
**[02:59] ---**
*Doesn't losing bother him at all?*
**[03:02] ---**
*Or is this just an act?*
**[03:04] ---**
*I don't get it.*
**[03:06] ---**
*We live in different worlds.*
**[03:08] ---**
*Always have, ever since we first met.*
**[03:18] ---**
Nice to meet you. I'm Shinji.
**[03:22] ---**
A host?
**[03:23] ---**
Wait, what? No, he's a *prince*.
Can't you see he's a prince?
**[03:28] ---**
*Then, what's with the bangs?*
**[03:31] ---**
Your band is in ARP, and so am I,
but we inhabit different genres.
**[03:36] ---**
Daiya-kun and Rage-kun, yes?
**[03:38] ---**
I saw your concert video.
**[03:40] ---**
The one where you bounce
around all over the place.
**[03:44] ---**
You know, uh... Dog Bone?
**[03:46] ---**
Cross Bone.
**[03:48] ---**
And now, we're Rebel Cross.
**[03:51] ---**
Right. Apologies.
**[03:52] ---**
Huh? "Apologies"? What the hell?
**[03:56] ---**
*Seriously, those bangs...*
**[03:57] ---**
I apologize if I upset you. Apologies.
**[04:00] ---**
Why do you keep saying it?!
**[04:02] ---**
Calm down, you two.
**[04:07] ---**
*They're too long.*
**[04:11] ---**
His father's a famous conductor.
**[04:13] ---**
His mother, an opera singer.
**[04:15] ---**
A thoroughbred who's had the
best vocal training money could buy.
**[04:19] ---**
And to top it off, he's super rich.
**[04:21] ---**
I'll never forget how shocked
I was the first time I met him.
**[04:25] ---**
Bellesalle Akihabara
**[04:41] ---**
Morning.
**[04:42] ---**
Let's do our best in today's concert.
**[04:44] ---**
We'll crush you.
**[04:45] ---**
We'll make you cry.
**[04:46] ---**
That's what it means
to live in different worlds.
**[04:51] ---**
Hey, now...
**[04:53] ---**
Hey, now...
**[04:56] ---**
Hey, come on now...
**[04:59] ---**
Hey...
**[05:01] ---**
It's like a model house.
**[05:02] ---**
Everything's shiny like it's brand new.
**[05:04] ---**
Must be tough cleaning it all, though, huh?
**[05:10] ---**
Oh, the housekeepers do that.
**[05:14] ---**
One day, I'll send yer ass a taster
of the suffering we peasants endure.
**[05:18] ---**
*Wrong.*
**[05:19] ---**
Daiya-san, it's "I'll send *your*
ass a taste of the suffering, etc."
**[05:23] ---**
*Even more wrong.*
**[05:25] ---**
Or maybe it's "I'll *give* your ass a taste"?
**[05:28] ---**
*I mean... it's not wrong, but...*
**[05:30] ---**
*It's annoying.*
**[05:33] ---**
* The concerts are a game to Shinji,*
* so it doesn't matter to him if he wins or loses.*
**[05:38] ---**
* They're a way for a rich guy to kill time.*
* That's all they are to him.*
**[05:42] ---**
*Money. Status. Education. Talent.*
**[05:46] ---**
*He's got it all, but...*
**[05:49] ---**
*What does he lack?*
**[05:50] ---**
*What does he want?*
**[06:17] ---**
*He's a greedy pig.*
**[06:20] ---**
León? Well...
**[06:23] ---**
Goofball? Gifted?
**[06:26] ---**
Meaner than he looks?
**[06:28] ---**
He's annoying, whatever.
**[06:36] ---**
Hey, hey, Rage-kun.
**[06:46] ---**
*Annoying.*
**[06:57] ---**
Annoying.
**[07:10] ---**
*Why don't I get tired of watching them?*
**[07:25] ---**
Whatcha doin'?
**[07:34] ---**
It's beautiful here.
**[07:37] ---**
The leaves shaking in the wind.
**[07:39] ---**
The water flowing by...
**[07:41] ---**
I could watch them forever.
**[07:48] ---**
I'm really happy, you know...
that I got into ARP.
**[07:54] ---**
I've been looking for something
like this since I was a kid.
**[07:58] ---**
A place where I could be myself.
**[08:04] ---**
Thanks for letting me be one of you.
**[08:10] ---**
*He really is annoying.*
**[08:14] ---**
Friends? A place to belong?
Who cares about that stuff?
**[08:17] ---**
Since I was a kid, I've lived all over.
**[08:21] ---**
My parents were kinda, well... crazy.
**[08:24] ---**
They just disappeared in a way.
**[08:27] ---**
Well, that's rock and roll for you.
**[08:33] ---**
At the time, I didn't know what rock was.
**[08:36] ---**
Until I met him.
**[09:05] ---**
We were always together.
**[09:08] ---**
He was like a brother to me.
**[09:11] ---**
He was always by my side, no matter what.
**[09:15] ---**
God sent Daiya to keep an eye on me.
**[09:24] ---**
ARP.
**[09:29] ---**
ARP.
**[09:33] [SONG]**
Euclids rising to heaven,
**[09:36] [SONG]**
a freezing breath
shattering with with class.
**[09:38] [SONG]**
Yo, yo, K to the I, to the S, the S!
**[09:40] [SONG]**
I'm high speed, a man who can
bring down a hundred million.
**[09:44] [SONG]**
A hit to your synapses,
the wisdom of Thanatos.
**[09:46] [SONG]**
Speaking of our dreams with electric sheep.
**[09:49] [SONG]**
Even the herbivore
animals are gettin' it on.
**[09:52] [SONG]**
Get to work and break it up!
**[09:54] [SONG]**
Give me kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Open your lips!
**[09:57] [SONG]**
Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Oh kiss!
**[10:00] [SONG]**
If what you felt and

**[10:05] [SONG]**
Yo! Kids! Kids! Kids!

Let's go! Da! Da! Da! Da! Da! Da! Dance!
**[10:16] [SONG]**
Just kiss!
**[10:18] [SONG]**
Give us love and dreams and a future!
**[10:21] [SONG]**
Give me kiss!

All alone, let's do this
and that and the other thing.
**[10:32] [SONG]**
Give me kiss!
**[10:35] [SONG]**
Just feel me (feel me) alone (alone)! Kiss!
**[10:35] ---**
ARP's concerts are basically a battle.
**[10:39] ---**
All its members are rivals.
**[10:41] ---**
Even Daiya, the other half of my band.
**[10:46] ---**
Battles. Combat.
**[10:50] ---**
Dead or alive.
**[10:53] ---**
Kill. Or be killed.
**[10:58] ---**
Live. Or die.
**[11:03] ---**
Hey, you. Where's my bike?
**[11:06] ---**
In the parking lot.
**[11:08] ---**
It's not there. That's why I'm asking.
**[11:10] ---**
You used it to go to the
convenience store, didn't you?
**[11:17] ---**
* Sometimes, when a concert's*
* coming up, I get nervous at night.*
**[11:41] ---**
*Who is my next battle against?*
**[11:43] ---**
*Daiya. A power type.*
**[11:46] ---**
*A master of house and hip-hop dancing.*
**[11:49] ---**
* Shinji. His fundamental skill at singing*
* and dancing is better than anybody's.*
**[11:53] ---**
* He's also a "prince,"*
* which is a real crowd-pleaser.*
**[11:57] ---**
* León. A four octave voice*
* and an incredible sense of rhythm.*
**[12:01] ---**
*Insane physical skills.*
**[12:13] ---**
*So what?*
**[12:14] ---**
* None of that will help you*
* against the one and only Rage.*
**[12:24] ---**
I'm back.
**[12:25] ---**
Did you find my bike?
**[12:32] ---**
Hey, Rage! How long you
gonna stay in that shower?
**[12:36] ---**
You better not be meditating in there.
**[12:45] ---**
Hey, answer me, damn it.
**[12:51] ---**
Hey!
**[12:52] ---**
Wipe your damn feet first!
**[12:57] ---**
You've been out of it lately.
**[13:00] ---**
What is a battle?
**[13:02] ---**
Huh? What's this about?
**[13:09] ---**
You win or you lose. That's all there is to it.
**[13:23] ---**
*Feelings are a labyrinth. So you meditate.*
**[13:35] ---**
*What do you gain? What do you lose?*
**[13:40] ---**
*What are the battles for?*
**[13:45] ---**
To rule the world.
**[13:51] ---**
So you've arrived, old man.
**[13:52] ---**
Where are you?
**[13:54] ---**
Bringing the gifted few to
one place to make them fight.
**[14:02] ---**
The one who survives will be
crowned... the ultimate performer.
**[14:14] ---**
Why are you doing this?
**[14:16] ---**
Have you ever heard
of a ritual called "kodoku"?
**[14:19] ---**
You seal several poisonous insects in a pot,
and watch them eat each other to survive.
**[14:24] ---**
The last one standing
gains incredible power.
**[14:29] ---**
I will create the ultimate
performer and rule the world!
**[14:38] ---**
Damn you!
**[14:41] ---**
Fight! Survive!
**[14:48] ---**
It's time for the battle to begin, Rage-kun.
**[14:51] ---**
Here I come, Rage.
**[14:54] ---**
Don't cry if you lose, Rage-kun.
**[14:59] ---**
Um...
**[15:00] ---**
Now, ready your weapon!
What weapon do you choose?
**[15:05] ---**
My weapon?
**[15:18] ---**
I-It's so bright!
**[15:20] ---**
My very existence is invincible!
**[15:31] ---**
He's so cool!
**[15:43] ---**
And the concert begins.
**[15:51] ---**
You're not done signing autographs yet?
**[15:53] ---**
There are lots of people
who want my autograph.
**[15:56] ---**
You dimwit. It's because
your signature takes years to write.
**[16:00] ---**
Maybe I should've made it simpler.
**[16:10] ---**
Leave some of those yum yum sticks for me.
**[16:12] ---**
Uh, what? Um, what are you suggesting?
**[16:15] ---**
Did you think we hadn't noticed?
**[16:19] ---**
* Excitement. A feeling*
* of relaxation in my limbs.*
**[16:23] ---**
* This rush of adrenaline is the*
* same kind you get before a fight.*
**[16:36] ---**
* And now, it's time for Rebel*
* Cross to take to the stage!*
**[16:40] ---**
Let's go.
**[16:43] ---**
*What is a battle?*
**[16:48] ---**
* There's no answer to that, I'm sure of it.*
* But there doesn't need to be.*
**[16:53] ---**
* And someday, the whole world*
* will know the name "Rage."*
**[18:20] ---**
Rebel Cross are awesome, aren't they?
**[18:23] ---**
Yeah. Their stagecraft
is better than it was before.
**[18:55] ---**
Okay, let's do this.
**[18:57] ---**
We look like bosom buddies, don't we?
**[18:59] ---**
We do not!
**[19:02] ---**
Okay, let's do this.
**[19:04] ---**
Hey, you too.
**[19:07] ---**
What a pain.
**[19:10] ---**
Here we go.
**[19:11] ---**
So, what we gonna say?
**[19:13] ---**
"Let's go, ARP!" Something like that?
**[19:16] ---**
Denied.
**[19:17] ---**
"Let's give it our all in the concerts."
**[19:19] ---**
Lame.
**[19:20] ---**
"ARP, hooray!"
**[19:22] ---**
Hell no.
**[19:27] ---**
"ARP, go!"
**[19:29] ---**
Go!
**[19:35] ---**
* I'll hang out with them*
* for a little while longer.*
**[21:10] ---**
So did you all like tonight's
episode of *The Rage Show*?
**[21:14] ---**
Quiet, you.
**[21:16] ---**
Rage-kun, don't go making up
new titles for the show.
**[21:19] ---**
This is *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[21:22] ---**
Fine, whatever you want.
**[21:24] ---**
But the whole show's basically about me,
**[21:27] ---**
and this episode was me all the way, baby.
**[21:30] ---**
This episode was a Rage special.
**[21:33] ---**
What's the view of the extras?
**[21:35] ---**
What the hell? I'm not an extra.
**[21:36] ---**
This episode was really surreal.
**[21:39] ---**
Hey, don't call it surreal, idiot.
**[21:41] ---**
Now, now. No fighting.
**[21:44] ---**
But you know...
**[21:46] ---**
It was all from Rage's perspective,
**[21:51] ---**
and we got to see a part of you
that even we don't normally see.
**[21:54] ---**
A more innocent part.
**[21:56] ---**
It felt really fresh.
**[21:59] ---**
Well, that's a good insight,
I guess. Coming from *you*.
**[22:02] ---**
6 out of 10.
**[22:03] ---**
Well, you're just an asshole.
**[22:05] ---**
Can I say something?
**[22:08] ---**
Go ahead.
**[22:08] ---**
Remember the scene where
Rage forgot my bike?
**[22:11] ---**
Yeah. That really happened, right?
**[22:14] ---**
It sure did. But he's done worse than that!
**[22:18] ---**
That's right. They made it worse for the anime.
**[22:22] ---**
It's worse in real life!
**[22:23] ---**
He forgets my bike all the time,
but he also steals my clothes
**[22:26] ---**
and leaves them someplace,
or forgets his wallet in the ramen place.
**[22:28] ---**
Yeah, and he always forgets his phone
and then Daiya-san's like, "Rage. Phone."
**[22:34] ---**
Yeah. That's right.
**[22:35] ---**
I know where his phone is
more often than he does.
**[22:38] ---**
Yeah, yeah.
**[22:39] ---**
Listen, I do that to help you
train your lousy concentration.
**[22:43] ---**
Shut up.
**[22:45] ---**
But you know, even if he's a jerk,
this episode taught us
**[22:50] ---**
that he has kindness in his
heart when he looks at us.
**[22:55] ---**
Oh, well... that was all just
a fiction created for the anime.
**[23:01] ---**
Hm, what's this?
**[23:03] ---**
Rage-kun, are you blushing?
**[23:06] ---**
Bonehead.
**[23:08] ---**
Fine, fine.
**[23:10] ---**
I'll tell you the shocking truth.
**[23:11] ---**
What is it?
**[23:12] ---**
This episode was so popular that,
starting next week, it's *The Rage Show.*
**[23:17] ---**
It's not. That's wrong.
**[23:20] ---**
Don't lie to the viewers.
**[23:22] ---**
Next time, I'll be self-producing
my own rock song.
**[23:27] ---**
We'll be focusing
on the ears of Shinji's dog.
**[23:31] ---**
We won't.
**[23:32] ---**
We probably won't.
**[23:33] ---**
Look forward to it.
**[23:35] ---**
Rage-kun, are you blushing?
**[23:36] ---**
Shut up!

**[01:37] ---**
You want to hear about
Shinji ft. Cross Bone?
**[01:40] ---**
Yes. I was the one who floated the idea.
**[01:43] ---**
I got it when I won our first battle,
**[01:45] ---**
giving me total control over
what we produced next.
**[01:51] ---**
Contact us as soon as you've
decided what you'll be doing.
**[01:55] ---**
Of course.
**[01:56] ---**
I look forward to seeing what
Prince Shinji-kun will come up with.
**[02:02] ---**
I wonder... Hm...
**[02:04] ---**
Maybe you'll ride in on a white horse.
**[02:06] ---**
Not a chance.
**[02:07] ---**
Oh, uh... Huh.
**[02:11] ---**
Anyway, I want you to present
yourself however you see fit.
**[02:15] ---**
I can't wait.
**[02:16] ---**
Okay.
**[02:22] ---**
Maybe a Pegasus would've
been a better suggestion.

No, it wouldn't.

**[03:10] ---**
I like your new hairstyle.
**[03:12] ---**
Right?
**[03:13] ---**
I was surprised too, at first,
but I like it now. Don't you, bro?
**[03:31] ---**
Do you like it at ISM?
**[03:34] ---**
He's working really hard
at singing and dancing.
**[03:37] ---**
Singing and dancing?
**[03:40] ---**
You know, ARP!
**[03:42] ---**
Mom told you about it, didn't she?
**[03:45] ---**
Oh, yes, that's right.
**[03:48] ---**
My brother's super popular now!
**[03:51] ---**
I took to the stage at an ARP concert.
**[03:56] ---**
Right now, I'm practicing
for our next concert.
**[04:00] ---**
I see.
**[04:02] ---**
I'm tired. I'm going to get some rest.
**[04:04] ---**
Okay.
**[04:05] ---**
Mari, I'll clean up later.
**[04:08] ---**
Lock up when you leave.
**[04:10] ---**
Gotcha. Night.
**[04:12] ---**
Night.
**[04:28] (Flashback) ---**
Dad! Dad!
**[04:34] ---**
Thank you for the violin.
**[04:36] ---**
You looked very dashing.
**[04:40] ---**
Can I be in your orchestra someday?
**[04:50] ---**
Yes, you can.
**[04:52] ---**
If you practice as hard as you can,
**[04:56] ---**
you could even make first chair.
**[05:24] ---**
* Dad stopped talking*
* about the violin after that.*
**[05:30] ---**
*And I stopped going up onstage.*
**[05:44] ---**
Rebellion.
**[05:45] ---**
Rebellion?
**[05:46] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:47] ---**
It's time for you to show everyone
you're following your own path,
**[05:52] ---**
regardless of what your father thinks.
**[05:55] ---**
With Rebel Cross?
**[05:58] ---**
They're your exact opposite
and you're going to work with them?
**[06:02] ---**
Yes.
**[06:03] ---**
And our group name will be
Shinji ft. Cross Bone.
**[06:08] ---**
"Featuring Cross Bone," was it?
**[06:11] ---**
I want to feed off them and
learn how to sing like a rockstar.
**[06:14] ---**
And also, to pay tribute
to their indie rock beginnings.
**[06:19] ---**
I see. A very gentlemanly plan,
befitting of Prince Shinji.
**[06:25] ---**
But... is there any part
of Shinji Kanou in there?
**[06:30] ---**
Yes.
**[06:33] ---**
Yes. There is.
**[06:42] ---**
Looks like his idea was
a little different from mine.
**[06:46] ---**
Yes. Totally different.
**[06:50] ---**
Rock?
**[06:51] ---**
Yes. Rock.
**[06:53] ---**
Where's this coming from?
**[06:54] ---**
What even *is* your rock? "Prince" rock?
**[07:03] [SONG]**
Weren't we born to laugh with one another?
**[07:09] [SONG]**
Nonsense? Delusions? No way!
**[07:14] [SONG]**
You can laugh and call me
a fool if you like!
**[07:17] [SONG]**
But aren't we too young to harden
and close our hearts?
**[07:25] [SONG]**
Don't give up!
**[07:30] [SONG]**
Say yeah, pure young boys!
**[07:32] [SONG]**
Stand up and stand by!
**[07:33] [SONG]**
Don't just be the grown-ups' slave!
**[07:36] [SONG]**
Fight back, kid, let them
hear your pained cry!
**[07:56] ---**
A training camp?
**[07:57] ---**
Yes. We'll be sleeping
at ISM's lessons studio.
**[08:01] ---**
How'd you manage to book that?
**[08:05] ---**
I look forward to working with you.
**[08:07] ---**
Uh, what's in that huge suitcase?
**[08:10] ---**
Oh, this is my stuff.
**[08:12] ---**
You guys didn't bring anything?
**[08:15] ---**
Our stuff's in our dorm rooms.
**[08:18] ---**
All we need is a place to sleep.
**[08:23] ---**
Hey...
**[08:48] ---**
Hey. What the hell is that?
**[08:50] ---**
A sleeping bag.
**[08:54] ---**
But you know...
**[08:56] ---**
He's not very considerate.
**[08:59] ---**
He leaves all the lights on.
**[09:01] ---**
He takes the first shower.
**[09:03] ---**
And now, he's zonked out.
**[09:08] ---**
Hey, don't you know how
to get along with others?
**[09:10] ---**
We're here to train, aren't we?
**[09:11] ---**
Yelling's pointless.
**[09:13] ---**
But...
**[09:13] ---**
Check out his ears.
**[09:17] ---**
Earplugs?
**[09:18] ---**
How spoiled was he growing up?
**[09:23] ---**
ARP!
**[09:28] ---**
ARP!
**[09:36] ---**
The t-shirts are ready.
**[09:37] ---**
I like 'em. I did a great job.
**[09:40] ---**
You congratulating yourself?
**[09:41] ---**
I sure am.
**[09:42] ---**
They look really cool.
**[09:44] ---**
It's like... this is "rock," right?
**[09:46] ---**
Yeah, no.
**[09:47] ---**
At least don't tuck it in.
**[09:52] ---**
Matsumoto-kun!
**[09:54] ---**
Kanou-kun!
**[10:00] ---**
Screams rock, doesn't it?
**[10:02] ---**
Rock...
**[10:03] ---**
That's Shinji's— No, the *real* Kanou-kun's
way of expressing himself, huh?
**[10:09] ---**
Yes.
**[10:10] ---**
Magnificent!
**[10:12] ---**
You think so?
**[10:13] ---**
I do, totally.
**[10:14] ---**
The elegant performer, Prince Shinji,
and the rockstar, Shinji!
**[10:18] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:19] ---**
Kanou-kun?
**[10:20] ---**
Yes?
**[10:21] ---**
This is how an artist fights back!
**[10:24] ---**
Ah, thank you.
**[10:26] ---**
You're a mite close.
**[10:27] ---**
My bad. People tell me
I'm a personal space invader.
**[10:31] [SONG]**
Am I living not to protect
someone, but to destroy?
**[10:37] [SONG]**
The answer is lost to me...
**[10:44] ---**
That's enough for today.
**[10:46] ---**
You've sung more than you should.
**[10:48] ---**
Right.
**[10:49] ---**
Okay, dismissed.
**[10:52] ---**
Get your rest.
**[10:53] ---**
Yes, sir.
**[10:58] ---**
*What is it?*
**[11:00] ---**
*Something's missing.*
**[11:16] ---**
Shinji-san!
**[11:18] ---**
Shinji!
**[11:19] ---**
Yes?
**[11:20] ---**
That's dangerous.
**[11:22] ---**
Don't swing it around.
**[11:24] ---**
Okay.
**[11:38] ---**
This stand... Can we use this?
**[11:43] ---**
Not just for singing, I mean.
**[11:45] ---**
As part of the performance...
**[11:46] ---**
Throwing this move at them in formation!
**[11:50] ---**
Flinging around the mic stand? Sure, why not?
**[11:53] ---**
It's been a while, hasn't it, Rage?
**[11:55] ---**
Let's do it.
**[12:00] ---**
That's "rock," right?
**[12:02] ---**
Uh, yeah...
**[12:06] ---**
Okay! Let's go!
**[12:07] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:08] ---**
Okay.
**[12:12] ---**
So how do we do it?
**[12:13] ---**
We go hard.
**[12:16] ---**
Sorry.
**[12:17] ---**
That was close.
**[12:18] ---**
Don't be dumb. Stand a little further apart.
**[12:21] ---**
Jeez.
**[12:23] ---**
Okay, that'll do it.
**[12:25] ---**
One, two...
**[12:37] ---**
Right! That gave me an idea.
**[12:40] ---**
We'll pick it up tomorrow.
**[12:41] ---**
We're really done for the
day now. Good work, fellas.
**[12:50] ---**
I need... food.
**[12:54] ---**
Seafood
Ramen
**[12:54] ---**
Seafood
Ramen
**[13:01] ---**
What's this?
**[13:02] ---**
This is what you eat when
you're locked up and practicing.
**[13:06] ---**
But wouldn't fresh veg—
**[13:08] ---**
This is more Cross Bone's style.
**[13:12] ---**
You want us to teach you, right?
**[13:15] ---**
Know your place.
**[13:21] ---**
Where's the lid?
**[13:22] ---**
The lid?
**[13:23] ---**
I mean...
**[13:26] ---**
Don't tell me you've
never had instant ramen.
**[13:28] ---**
Huh? No, I have... I mean,
probably, at some point...
**[13:33] ---**
If you had, you wouldn't
have ripped off the lid.
**[13:45] ---**
I see.
**[13:47] ---**
I look forward to seeing
what Kanou-kun comes up with.
**[13:49] ---**
Indeed.
**[13:51] ---**
Excuse me.
**[13:52] ---**
We've been waiting for you, León-kun.
**[13:55] ---**
And here I am. What did you want today?
**[13:58] ---**
Oh, it's about the
self-produced demo you gave us.
**[14:02] ---**
Oh, yeah! Did you like it?
**[14:04] ---**
I think it's killer and adorbs
at the same time. Don't you?
**[14:08] ---**
Yeah. I think?
**[14:12] ---**
I'm afraid the composing producer
who's been helping you, Hirata-san,
**[14:16] ---**
called us and said it was no good.
**[14:21] ---**
He offered several practical ways
to improve the song itself,
**[14:25] ---**
but he's asked for a total
rewrite of the lyrics.
**[14:30] ---**
I was so confident, too.
**[14:33] ---**
What was wrong with them?
**[14:34] ---**
Very funny.
**[14:34] ---**
Next time,
don't screw around.
**[14:34] ---**
Hirata.
**[14:37] ---**
Well, for starters,
I'd suggest leaving out the emojis.
**[14:42] ---**
Great. It's a young
man's right to struggle.
**[14:46] ---**
The others struggled very hard
to find their answers, it would seem.
**[14:54] ---**
What's this? You taking five?
**[14:57] ---**
So much for my plan to spy on you.
**[15:00] ---**
Get outta here. You're annoying.
**[15:02] ---**
You're a very bold spy.
**[15:05] ---**
How's it going on your end?
Is the songwriting going well?
**[15:10] ---**
It sure is.
**[15:12] ---**
Glad to hear it.
**[15:14] ---**
Hirata probably told you
your songs were garbage again.
**[15:17] ---**
No, he didn't! Well, not in those words.
**[15:21] ---**
These two keep telling me
what I'm doing is garbage, too.
**[15:26] ---**
Want some?
**[15:27] ---**
Oh, sure.
**[15:29] ---**
Why do you think what he's doing is garbage?
**[15:33] ---**
We didn't say it was garbage at all.
**[15:37] ---**
I mean, for Shinji-kun, it's pretty rock.
**[15:40] ---**
Why, thank you, I'm sure.
**[15:42] ---**
But... thanks.
**[15:46] ---**
You're working real hard, Shinji-kun!
**[15:48] ---**
We're busy people, you know,
**[15:51] ---**
but the prince got on his knees and begged.
**[15:53] ---**
Huh? When did I do that, Rage-kun?
**[15:56] ---**
Sorry, I forgot it was hush-hush.
**[15:57] ---**
W-W-Wait a sec!
**[15:58] ---**
Come on, guys, break time's over. Let's go.
**[16:05] ---**
It isn't easy, but let's both
finish what we started, okay?
**[16:08] ---**
Okay!
**[16:08] ---**
Bye.
**[16:14] ---**
Huh?
**[16:24] ---**
Let's go, Cross Bone!
**[16:29] [SONG]**
When are you going to stop running away?
**[16:34] [SONG]**
Are you betray even yourself?
**[16:56] ---**
Here's those tickets you wanted.
**[16:59] ---**
Two?
**[17:00] ---**
I had one extra.
Do what you want with it.
**[17:14] ---**
Boys are a pain, aren't they?
**[19:13] ---**
Yes... He seemed well. Very well.
**[19:18] ---**
I see. I'm glad.
**[19:20] ---**
Oh, I bought his CD.
**[19:23] ---**
I wanted you to hear it.
**[21:10] ---**
Thanks for watching *ARP Backstage Pass*,
**[21:13] ---**
and good evening!
**[21:14] ---**
This episode was about Shinji-kun's dog,
Mimi-chan, and his little sister, Mari-chan.
**[21:21] ---**
León-kun, what were *you* watching?
**[21:22] ---**
He's right. It was basically
about the two of them.
**[21:26] ---**
But what the hell was up with that?
**[21:28] ---**
With what?
**[21:29] ---**
It was Shinji *featuring* Cross Bone, right?
**[21:31] ---**
So it should've been about Cross Bone.
**[21:34] ---**
Good point.
**[21:34] ---**
I don't really think anybody gives a damn.
**[21:37] ---**
Really?
**[21:38] ---**
And I was making a self-produced song, right?
**[21:41] ---**
Nobody gives a damn about that, either.
**[21:43] ---**
Hey, Shinji, what do you think?
**[21:45] ---**
Don't blame me. I didn't write the script.
**[21:48] ---**
So now you're blaming the writers?
**[21:51] ---**
It's all Endo's fault, is that it?
**[21:53] ---**
Endo... Endo's the director!
**[21:55] ---**
You probably think he's a moron.
**[21:57] ---**
I do not!
**[21:57] ---**
And call him Director Endo, will you?
**[21:59] ---**
It's not his fault, either, but...
**[22:02] ---**
Anyway, we don't have a lot of time.
So let's look back at the episode.
**[22:06] ---**
Shinji-kun's legendary battle
with instant ramen.
**[22:11] ---**
Yeah, that was the best part.
**[22:14] ---**
It was?
**[22:15] ---**
There was even more, actually.
**[22:17] ---**
Like when he showed up
at the stadium in a stretch limo.
**[22:20] ---**
Yeah, what *was* that, man?
**[22:22] ---**
He gets out and says:
"Peasants, kneel before me!"
**[22:26] ---**
Okay, yeah. that one I did. Sorry.
**[22:29] ---**
And the part where
Shinji-kun cried and begged.
**[22:35] ---**
On his knees. In his underwear.
**[22:36] ---**
Wait, no... I definitely wasn't crying.
**[22:40] ---**
Underwear?
**[22:40] ---**
No.
**[22:41] ---**
Don't you sometimes wear
nothing but underwear?
**[22:44] ---**
No, I wasn't... Well... I mean, sure.
**[22:47] ---**
You were?
**[22:48] ---**
It's not that big a deal.
**[22:51] ---**
Anyway, let's just move on.
**[22:53] ---**
You're always going around in underwear.
**[22:55] ---**
Wait, guys. We haven't talked
about the story at all.
**[22:58] ---**
Shinji's got it rough, I guess.
**[23:00] ---**
Work hard.
**[23:01] ---**
Yes, okay...
**[23:03] ---**
Time for the next episode preview!
**[23:06] ---**
To all of my fans out there
who were sad I wasn't in this episode:
**[23:10] ---**
It's time!
**[23:12] ---**
Next time, it's León ft. León
in León's all-night dance special,
**[23:17] ---**
and all-night singing spesh, uh... special!
**[23:19] ---**
You screwed it up.
**[23:20] ---**
I'll try again!
**[23:21] ---**
Next time, it's León ft. León...
**[23:23] ---**
You're doing it over?
**[23:25] ---**
León's all-night dance...
**[23:27] ---**
Wait, I got lost.
**[23:28] ---**
Nobody cares, just give it up.
**[23:31] ---**
It's fine! We got it!
**[23:32] ---**
Uh, anyway, it's the all-León
episode! Look forward to it!
**[23:36] ---**
So I get the week off next week? Cool.
**[23:38] ---**
You can't say that.

**[01:30] rage**
Welcome to *ARP Backstage
Pass* AKA *The Rage Show*.
**[01:34] rage**
I'm Rage from Rebel Cross.
**[01:36] dai**
Whoa, hold up. That doesn't sound right.
**[01:38] rage**
What's wrong?
**[01:39] dai**
What's this "Rage Show"?
**[01:40] rage**
Dude, don't tell me you
don't know *The Rage Show*.
**[01:43] dai**
Never heard of it.
**[01:44] rage**
Oh, man, you're so behind.
**[01:46] dai**
Behind? Was there some sort of project?
**[01:49] rage**
Yup. Looks like it's not just
schoolwork you're behind on.
**[01:52] dai**
Yo, this isn't the time or place, dude.
**[01:54] rag**
You're behind on everything.
**[01:55] dai**
Don't go saying stuff like that on air.
**[01:58] rage**
Today, this is how it's gonna be.
You got that? Like this.
**[02:01] dai**
I don't get any of it.
**[02:02] rage**
You don't get it?
**[02:03] dai**
Pretty sure nobody else does, either.
**[02:04] rage**
I'm purposefully projecting
an air of specialness.
**[02:08] rage**
You get it now? Feels special, doesn't it?
**[02:10] dai**
I guess...
**[02:11] rage**
I mean, you're expecting animation,
**[02:13] rage**
but instead, you get the Rebel
Cross duo. How's that for special?
**[02:17] rage**
Today's episode is for
highlighting that kinda thing.
**[02:19] dai**
No, what I was meant was,
why is it *The Rage Show*...
**[02:23] dai**
when you've got both members
of Rebel Cross here?
**[02:25] rage**
Well, I thought that was obvious.
**[02:27] dai**
No, it really isn't.
**[02:28] rage**
You really don't get something so simple?
**[02:30] dai**
No, I don't.
**[02:32] rage**
Well, anyway. Today,
we've got a special episode for you,
**[02:35] rage**
featuring a wide variety of segments.
**[02:38] dai**
Uh-huh.
**[02:39] rage**
If you get it, keep watching.
We're starting the show now.
**[03:00] rag**
Hey!
**[03:03] rage**
Wait, wait. Stop! Stop!
**[03:06] rage**
Hey, now...
**[03:07] leon**
Huh? I can't move?
**[03:10] shi**
Oh, looks like we've become mini-characters.
**[03:14] dai**
Uh, Shinji, you're way too calm about it.
**[03:20] leon**
Is this our 2.5D debut?
**[03:23] rage**
You need to apologize to the
2.5D environment right now.
**[03:25] leon**
Huh? Why?
**[03:27] dai**
We just started and you guys
are already getting on my nerves.
**[03:31] rage**
Hey, Daiya, don't turn
to the side. You're all flat.
**[03:35] rage**
That's a good angle.
**[03:37] dai**
Thanks.
**[03:38] shin**
What do we do? Are we going to stay like this?
**[03:41] leon**
You can actually dance quite a bit like this.
**[03:44] rage**
Didn't you just say you couldn't move?
**[03:47] leon**
Well, you know, I'm gifted,
whatever shape I take.
**[03:50] rage**
What?
**[03:52] shin**
What's wrong, Rage-kun?
**[03:53] rage**
You're asking me what's wrong?
I mean... This whole situation.
**[03:56] dai**
Hm, why don't we rehearse?
**[03:59] shin**
That's a great idea, Daiya-kun.
**[04:02] leon**
Yes, if we rehearse, even
Rage-kun won't feel so insecure.
**[04:07] rage**
What did you just say?
**[04:09] shin**
All right, let's do it!
**[04:11] shin**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
**[04:17] rage**
No, no, no, no. Stop.
**[04:20] shin**
Oh, jeez, what now, Rage-kun?
**[04:22] rage**
I mean, can we even call
ourselves performers like this?
**[04:25] leon**
Aw, I wanna dance already!
**[04:27] rage**
Then, just dance by yourself.
**[04:29] dai**
Rage, you're flat!
**[04:32] shin**
Listen, Rage-kun...
**[04:34] shin**
Here's what I think.
No matter what you look like,
**[04:36] shin**
there's meaning in what you do. That's why...
**[04:37] narr**
* A group composed of some*
* of Japan's finest singers and dancers,*
**[04:45] narr**
*aiming to make it big on a global level.*
**[04:52] narr**
*Or they should be...*
**[04:56] dai**
Wait, mini-characters?!
**[04:57] rag**
That's a really good point.
**[04:59] dai**
Huh? How do you mean?
**[05:00] rage**
Well, everyone must be
thinking the same right now.
**[05:02] ---**
True dat.
**[05:03] rage**
I mean, of course they are.
**[05:05] rage**
Well, today's episode is
a bunch of these mini-characters
**[05:13] rage**
subbing in for us to tell these
teeny-tiny short stories. You get it now?
**[05:18] dai**
Wait, all of them involve mini-characters?
**[05:20] rag**
Yeah, apparently, this kind
of thing is in at the moment.
**[05:25] dai**
It is?!
**[05:26] rage**
So we're not the only ones
who use mini-characters.
**[05:29] rage**
It happens a whole lot in anime.
**[05:31] rage**
And it has its own challenges.
**[05:33] dai**
You're an anime buff?
**[05:34] rage**
I mean, not really, but anime isn't some
super simple medium. You get what I mean?
**[05:39] dai**
You're weirdly mature today.
**[05:41] rage**
I don't... hate that. It suits me.
**[05:44] rage**
Anyway, the next story's apparently
one that's a bit truer to life.
**[05:48] dai**
Huh? What kind of story is it?
**[05:51] txt**
Oden
**[05:55] leon**
I'm hungry. How about we go get some food?
**[05:58] dai**
It's cold, so let's have some oden.
**[06:01] shin**
Oden?
**[06:04] shin**
I *think* I've had oden before...
**[06:08] dai**
So what are your favorite
things to stick in oden?
**[06:12] rage**
Egg and kelp.
**[06:20] leon**
For me, it's rice cake purses!
**[06:27] dai**
What's wrong, Shinji?
**[06:30] dai**
We're almost at the convenience store.
**[06:32] shin**
Uh, nothing. What things do you like, Daiya-kun?
**[06:37] dai**
I...
**[06:48] shin**
That looks good.
**[06:52] dai**
Shinji, do you know what
makes the best oden?
**[07:01] dai**
My favorite is konjac.
I'll feed some to you.
**[07:06] ---**
Open wide.
**[07:09] shi**
Ow, hot!
**[07:10] dai**
Good, right?
**[07:11] dai**
Stop squirming.

Yes, it's good, isn't it?

Today, I wanna find out if the people
from ARP will pick up my eraser if I drop it.

Shinji-kun o
**[08:25] shin**
León-kun, you dropped this.

Here you go. Take more care of it.

ARP.
**[09:16] dai**
Oh, yeah, you put your arm into that throw.
**[09:18] rag**
Of course I did. León dropped it, right?
**[09:22] rag**
Dropping it was clearly part of the setup.
**[09:25] rag**
It said to me: "Please throw this."
**[09:25] dai**
The setup for what exactly?
**[09:27] rag**
So if I hadn't gone along with it,
it would've been cruel on León.
**[09:31] dai**
Cruel?
**[09:32] rag**
So why'd you just pick it up normally?
**[09:33] dai**
That was wrong?
**[09:34] rag**
Of course it was.
**[09:36] dai**
Oh, and the segment before.
The one about the meeting.
**[09:39] ---**
Oh, that one.
**[09:39] dai**
The other day at the station,
**[09:42] dai**
you totally didn't see me and got
them to make an announcement again.
**[09:45] dai**
Just so you know, being summoned on
the PA to come get you is embarrassing.
**[09:49] rag**
Embarrassment's a feeling
you should be used to.
**[09:51] dai**
Whoa, whoa, hold up!
**[09:52] rage**
All right, let's bring on the next one.
**[09:54] rage**
This one's about what creatures we like.
***SIGN*** Pets you want
***SIGN*** to have
***SIGN*** What animals do you like?
**[10:04] rage**
Cats. Because they're so refined.
**[10:07] rage**
I don't like dogs. I don't sense
an ounce of pride in them.
**[10:11] rage**
I also don't like them
because Shinji has one.
***SIGN*** What animal do you want as a pet?
**[10:19] rage**
Let me think.
**[10:21] rage**
A cat, a ferret, a rabbit, a goldfish.
**[10:25] rage**
I want to own them all.
**[10:27] rage**
But as an animal lover, dogs are a must.
**[10:31] rage**
Yeah, I do like dogs, too.
**[10:35] rage**
Once I have the money, I want to
buy a house where I can have pets.
**[10:39] rage**
Since I love animals,
I want a lot of them.
**[10:41] dai**
No way! You'd never take care of them!
**[10:45] txt**
Pet
**[10:48] leon**
I was thinking I'd like to live
with an animal in the future.
**[10:52] shi**
That sounds nice.
**[10:54] shi**
But having a living, breathing animal
as a pet is quite a responsibility, right?
**[10:59] leon**
So how do you find living with Mimi-chan?
**[11:03] shi**
Mimi's a Boston Terrier, and she's
full of energy and very friendly.
**[11:09] shi**
I chose the name Mimi
because her ears are so big.
**[11:13] shi**
She's super cute.
**[11:15] shi**
Oh, yeah. She recently learned how to jump.
**[11:19] shi**
León-kun, you should get a dog, too.
**[11:22] shi**
Oh, but I guess you can't
have one in the dorm.
**[11:25] shi**
I know! You should just come play with Mimi.
**[11:28] shi**
She's *super* cute.
**[11:31] shi**
Sorry, León-kun, I have this sudden
urge to go see Mimi, so I'm going home.
**[11:40] leo**
I'm already full!
**[11:43] txt**
Meer-tan
**[11:46] Leo**
*Oh, it's a show about meerkats.*
**[11:48] tv**
* As they are often the target*
* of predators on the savanna,*
**[11:52] tv**
*they are very cautious creatures.*
**[11:57] leo**
*Cautious creatures?*
**[12:01] tv**
* While they may look incredibly cute,*
* they also have a ferocious side,*
**[12:05] tv**
*earning them the nickname: desert gangsters.*
**[12:08] leo**
*Desert... gangsters?*
**[12:14] leo**
A fusion of cute and
hard-boiled? That's, uh... me.
**[12:18] tv**
* They live in colonies,*
* so they are quite social creatures.*
**[12:21] tv**
* Once they recognize you as a*
* friend, they open up to you,*
**[12:25] tv**
*and become very friendly companions.*
**[12:28] tv**
* However, when they're alone,*
* they tend to get agitated,*
**[12:32] tv**
* so it is recommended*
* you keep more than one.*
**[12:44] rag**
In that one, you got to see
how silly Shinji can get,
**[12:46] rag**
and how logical a dreamer León is.
**[12:49] dai**
Um, did you just imitate him?
Did you imitate León?
**[12:52] rag**
Oh, did you spot that? I guess you must've.
**[12:54] dai**
I mean, I got it, but it was, like,
totally off. I had to say it.
**[12:57] rag**
What? No way. I'm devastated.
I think I have to go home now.
**[13:03] rag**
There's an interview!
**[13:08] rag**
Oh, did you hear?
**[13:10] rag**
Apparently, they interviewed the sound
director about our voice acting abilities.
**[13:17] dai**
Wait, what? Really?
**[13:18] rag**
Yeah.
**[13:19] dai**
Seriously?
**[13:19] rag**
They did.
**[13:21] dai**
So, wait... they asked this person to rate us?
**[13:26] rag**
Exactly.

Letter from the Sound Director
**[13:34] dai**
Why won't you do this seriously?!
**[13:35] rag**
Let's see, Daiya-kun...
**[13:38] rag**
"I had this preconceived notion
that he'd be the kind of artist
**[13:41] rag**
who goes with his gut rather than
thinking long and hard about things."
**[13:45] rag**
"However, that impression was
obliterated the first time I met him."
**[13:49] rag**
"I got the sense that he's
a person who expresses himself
**[13:52] rag**
only after thinking about the
subject matter in great depth."
**[13:56] rag**
"Overthinking and worrying can be a good thing,
**[13:59] rag**
but I'd like to see him just shoot
from the hip from time to time."
**[14:02] dai**
Hang on, didn't this guy
write anything positive?
**[14:06] rag**
Well, you don't really have much going
for you, other than your muscles.
**[14:09] dai**
What's that supposed to mean?!
**[14:11] rag**
I mean, you're not exactly bright.
**[14:12] dai**
That's contradicted by, like,
*all* of the anime episodes.
**[14:16] dai**
It's not true.
**[14:18] rag**
I guess he got the impression
that you're surprisingly serious.
**[14:21] rag**
That's what Tanaka thought.
**[14:22] dai**
I always take things seriously.
**[14:25] rag**
See, even that statement was way too serious.
**[14:28] dai**
I should say something funny? Is that it?
**[14:30] rag**
I mean, they *did* say they'd like
to see you shoot from the hip.

"I got the impression that
Rage-kun is the kind of person
**[14:42] dai**
who makes decisions based
on intuition and instinct."
**[14:46] dai**
"He has an aura that only musicians
can emit. Can be... charismatic?"
**[14:51] dai**
"His voice in and of itself is
pleasant and reverberates gently,
**[14:55] dai**
so I'd like to try something
in the vein of whisper ASMR."
**[15:01] rage**
Well, that Tanaka's a good egg.
**[15:03] dai**
That's Tanaka-san to you.
**[15:04] rage**
No, seriously, total respect, Tanaka.
**[15:07] dai**
I guess it does sound like you
actually have respect for him.
**[15:11] rage**
ResTana can really see a lot through sound.
**[15:13] rage**
He just gets me, you know?
**[15:15] dai**
Wait, Res-what?
**[15:17] rage**
It's short for "respect for Tanaka."
**[15:20] dai**
That so doesn't work.
Whatever. So "ResTana," is it?
**[15:23] rage**
ResTana, yeah.
**[15:23] dai**
You know, one of these days, you're gonna
get yelled at by a bunch of adults.

I'm Shinji now.
**[17:14] dai**
Man, this hair's so annoying.
**[17:18] rag**

It's not like that.

Yup.

That's spot on.

I always wanted to give being an
insensitive jerk a go, as a one-time thing.

**[20:50] dai**
If you have to go there,
it should be *The Rebel Cross Show*.
**[20:56] rag**
You finally picked up on that?
**[20:59] dai**
"Finally"? Seriously, dude?
**[21:00] rag**
I've been waiting for you to say that.
**[21:03] dai**
Also, to be precise... To be really precise...
This show is *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[21:07] rag**
Okay, okay, okay.
**[21:09] rag**
They should have made it a Rebel Cross
episode, anyway. Just like you said.
**[21:12] dai**
Why?
**[21:13] rag**
Last time was a Shinji episode, right?
**[21:15] rag**
I bet it was too amateurish
and tedious to get the ratings.
**[21:18] rag**
Then, there was León's episode,
but that was so bright, it hurt your eyes,

so you had to sit way back from your TV.

That wasn't too great, either, right?
**[21:26] rag**
That's why, this time,
Rebel Cross was just right.
**[21:30] dai**
Why's Rebel Cross "just right"?
**[21:32] rag**
I wanted you to say it from the beginning.
**[21:33] dai**
You're not making sense.
**[21:35] dai**
The Shinji episode was
pretty good in its own right.
**[21:39] rag**
You think?
**[21:40] dai**
For an anime, I thought it was good.
**[21:43] rag**
I see.
**[21:44] dai**
León's episode worked
as a León episode. It was fun.
**[21:46] rag**
I see.
**[21:47] dai**
So that's why we were up next,
because it was our turn.
**[21:51] dai**
Don't you diss me!
**[21:52] rag**
Well, anyway, we've got to wrap it up,
so take it away, Daiya.
**[21:56] dai**
What kind of segue was that?
**[21:57] dai**
Um, ARS, subscribers,
princesses, and Tantan:
**[22:01] dai**
make sure you don't miss our next episode!
**[22:04] rag**
All right, see you again next
week for *The Rage Show*.
**[22:06] dai**
I told you to make it *The Rebel Cross Show*.

**[01:38] ---**
Hey, everybody!
**[01:40] ---**
MC León here!
**[01:50] ---**
Whatever. That was funny.
**[01:52] ---**
Now, come with me.
**[01:57] ---**
This episode, we'll tell you the story
of this awesome song, "Fantasista,"
**[02:01] ---**
that I wrote and composed.
**[02:03] ---**
To León
**[02:04] ---**
Leon-kun, you've become
an instant hit since your debut.
**[02:09] ---**
Right? I'm so happy.
**[02:12] ---**
You've got lots of fan letters.
**[02:18] ---**
This one says: "'Fantasista' is the best."
**[02:21] ---**
Looks like doing those
rewrites paid off, huh?
**[02:26] ---**
It was hard, but it was really fun,
**[02:29] ---**
and I nailed the singing *and* the dancing.
**[02:32] ---**
Oh? Does that mean you're...
**[02:36] ---**
I'm just gifted, I guess.
**[02:40] ---**
Man, now *you're* making me say it.
**[03:02] [SONG]**
Look at me, everybody!
**[03:04] [SONG]**
The whole world's looking at me!
**[03:06] [SONG]**
I am León!
**[03:08] ---**
Okay, stop!
**[03:10] ---**
I'm stopping it here.
**[03:14] ---**
What? Who just said that?
**[03:21] ---**
Who are you?
**[03:22] ---**
Hello. I am Meer-tan.
**[03:26] ---**
Meer-tan? You're that picture I drew!
**[03:26] Background**
I am Meer-tan. I am Meer-tan.
**[03:30] ---**
What are you doing here?
**[03:32] ---**
Shut up a second, will you?
**[03:35] ---**
Well, you see, I'm your superego.
**[03:39] ---**
"Superego"?
**[03:41] ---**
Let's just say I'm the
voice inside your heart.
**[03:44] ---**
The voice inside my heart?
Why? What's going on?
**[03:53] ---**
You keep trying to show off but everything
that comes out your mouth is cringeworthy.
**[03:58] ---**
So I'm here to help you out.
**[04:00] ---**
The voice inside my heart?
**[04:03] ---**
That's right.
**[04:04] ---**
Why does the voice inside my heart
sound like some old guy from Namba?
**[04:07] ---**
Beats me! I have absolutely no idea.
**[04:09] ---**
This is just how I ended up.
**[04:11] ---**
I thought I'd have a cuter
voice, too. Maybe like an idol.
**[04:15] ---**
Anyway, let's show 'em what you
were really thinking back there.
**[04:20] ---**

* an instant hit since your debut.*

**[04:46] ---**
H-Hey! Who made you my voice actor?
**[04:50] ---**
You did. That was what
you were really thinking.
**[04:54] ---**
I did *not* think that!
**[04:57] ---**
Really?
**[04:57] ---**
Really!
**[04:59] ---**
Really? Not even a little?
**[05:03] ---**
Not even a little.
**[05:06] ---**
Okay, let's move on to the next scene.
**[05:09] ---**
"Yup, must be hard being a prince
and being so good-looking all the time."
**[05:14] ---**
"I bet those bangs get in your way.
Wanna borrow my scissors?"
**[05:19] ---**
I did *not* think that!
**[05:24] ---**
"Scary! Scary! And huge!"
**[05:26] ---**
"Ditch the squat rack and
take a singing lesson for once!"
**[05:29] ---**
I did not think that...
That'd make them mad at me.
**[05:31] ---**
"Seriously, how much did
that ridiculous outfit cost?"
**[05:35] ---**
"And what's with those heels?
You're gonna break your foot!"
**[05:40] ---**
Okay, I might've thought that.
**[05:42] ---**
Right?
**[05:43] ---**
"Look, one of us is gifted, and one of us
has the world's stupidest-looking goatee.
**[05:48] ---**
"Before you make me do rewrites,
get a marker and rewrite your face!"
**[05:52] ---**
I didn't think that! This isn't me!
**[05:58] ---**
Why are you showing me this?
**[06:04] ---**
Because I'm frustrated.
**[06:09] ---**
Remember the past.
**[06:13] ---**
León. Your talent truly is heaven sent.
**[06:18] ---**
But nobody... Not your friends, nor your
teachers... Ah, none of them could see it!
**[06:24] ---**
You were always alone.
**[06:29] ---**
But how about now?
**[06:32] ---**
Now that you're in ARP, I mean.
**[06:35] ---**
No matter how good you get at
singing and dancing, it doesn't matter.
**[06:39] ---**
It just isolates you more.
**[06:42] ---**
Face it. Nobody cares.
**[06:46] ---**
That's not true.
**[06:48] ---**
You haven't won a single battle
since you triumphed on your debut.
**[06:53] ---**
Yeah, well...
**[06:57] ---**
Isn't it time you admitted it?
**[06:59] ---**
Admit that ARP isn't the right
place for León the wunderkind.
**[07:05] ---**
I don't want to see myself crying anymore.
**[07:10] ---**
I'm not crying.
**[07:12] ---**
Let's take a look, shall we?
**[07:15] ---**
Here's you winning your very first battle.
You're *bursting* with happiness.
**[07:21] ---**
But...
**[07:24] ---**
*And the winner is: Rage!*
**[07:29] ---**
You were surprised to lose.
**[07:30] ---**
Look. That smile's frozen on your face.
**[07:36] ---**
*And the winner is: Daiya!*
**[07:42] ---**
Two loses in a row. But you
smiled, anyway. Somehow.
**[07:48] ---**
*And the winner is: Shinji!*
**[07:55] ---**
You've lost to everybody in ARP now.
**[08:00] ---**
On the surface, you're smiling,
but in your heart, it's driving you crazy.
**[08:07] ---**
*And the winner is: Rage!*
**[08:09] ---**
León didn't get his revenge. He lost again.
**[08:12] ---**
Look at this. You're welling up here.
**[08:15] ---**
I am *not*!
**[08:17] ---**
You're not? Then, what about here?

Well? See? See? See? See?!
**[08:31] ---**

No.

**[08:37] ---**
No.
**[08:39] ---**
Admit it!
**[08:40] ---**
No.
**[08:45] ---**
The sun just got in my eyes here.
**[08:49] ---**
Five seconds later, I was
over it and eating curry buns.
**[08:54] ---**
Here, I was playing secret base.
**[09:00] ---**
And this is a one-man pillow fight.
**[09:05] ---**
This is...
**[09:09] ---**
What?
**[09:14] ---**
Tell me.
**[09:16] ---**
You're standing there in a daze.
**[09:21] ---**
This is... After I stood
there, feeling lost, I...
**[09:25] ---**
You...
**[09:29] ---**
I started to dance!
**[09:33] ---**
Dance! Dance!
**[09:34] ---**
No way!
**[09:35] ---**
Stop it!
**[09:37] ---**
That's not right! Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!
**[09:40] ---**
You may be an airhead,
but you really do cry, don't you?
**[09:44] ---**
Right?
**[09:46] ---**
Nope.
**[09:48] ---**
Sure, it gets to me sometimes...
**[09:51] ---**
But I don't cry.
**[09:55] ---**
I see.
**[09:57] ---**
If you keep lying to yourself,
I have no choice but to come out and say it.
**[10:02] ---**
Say what?
**[10:03] ---**
A humiliation that could
spell the end of an idol's career.
**[10:08] ---**
A punishment game!
**[10:13] ---**
ARP!
**[10:17] ---**
It's ARP.
**[10:22] ---**
A punishment game!
**[10:26] ---**
You made me say it.
**[10:28] ---**
A punishment game?
**[10:30] ---**
A humiliation that can spell
the end of an idol's career.
**[10:33] ---**
A punishment game?
Like on those comedy shows?
**[10:36] ---**
Yes, exactly.
**[10:37] ---**
That sounds fun.
**[10:39] ---**
Yes, exactly. It sounds fun.
**[10:41] ---**
Wait, what?!
**[10:43] ---**
Again. Wait, what?!
**[10:45] ---**
That was hilarious.
**[10:47] ---**
I did a double take.
**[10:49] ---**
Hold up, wait a sec. This isn't right.
**[10:51] ---**
You're an idol, not a comedian.
**[10:53] ---**
Or do you think you're naturally funny
just 'cause you're from the Kansai region?
**[10:58] ---**
Comedy's not *that* easy.
**[11:00] ---**
Apologize to Kansai and apologize to ****.
**[11:03] ---**
It's not like that!
**[11:04] ---**
I like comedy and I'm from Kansai.
**[11:07] ---**
But I really do like them!

Battle Results Announcement
**[11:14] ---**
This time around, I was
supposed to do a comedy routine.
**[11:18] ---**
*And the winner is: Rage!*
**[11:31] ---**
When I found out it was
Shinji-kun I'd be doing it with,
**[11:35] ---**
I got really excited about getting
the chance to do a skit with him.
**[11:40] ---**
Well, sure you did.
You really admire Shinji, after all.
**[11:45] ---**
But look, you're a singer.
Comedy's not your bag.
**[11:48] ---**
Sure, I'd rather sing with him...
**[11:51] ---**
But when it's Shinji-kun...
**[11:55] ---**
The losers will perform a comedy routine.

**[12:01] ---**
Can we really learn all
this by tomorrow morning?
**[12:05] ---**
León-kun, now that we've been
given this to do, let's do our best with it.
**[12:14] ---**
*He's amazing!*
**[12:17] ---**
What's wrong?
**[12:18] ---**
Oh, nothing.
**[12:21] ---**
So... when do we start?
**[12:23] ---**
Right now, of course!
**[12:34] ---**
Here we go.
**[12:38] ---**
Ready, set...
**[12:43] ---**
Hey there!
**[12:54] ---**
What's wrong?
**[12:55] ---**
Ah, sorry.
**[12:58] ---**
I was surprised by your
energy when you ran out.
**[13:01] ---**
And I missed my cue.
**[13:04] ---**
The start of a skit is
the most important part.
**[13:07] ---**
Come on, we don't have much time.
**[13:09] ---**
Follow my lead.
**[13:13] ---**
Okay!
**[13:14] ---**
The prince really got into it, didn't he?
**[13:17] ---**
Shinji-kun's really serious
about everything he does.
**[13:19] ---**
He kept going like that till dawn.
**[13:23] ---**
So, what, that made the skit fun for you, huh?
**[13:27] ---**
It did. But it wasn't just that.
**[13:33] ---**
Hey there!
**[13:34] ---**
Hi!
**[13:37] ---**
So our comedy troupe is called Shinji-León!
**[13:41] ---**
Yeah.
**[13:55] ---**
To Shinji-kun
**[13:56] ---**
Your concert the other day went well.
**[13:58] ---**
You've received some fan letters.
**[14:01] ---**
"Shinji-León was great!"
**[14:04] ---**
"I didn't know Shinji had such hidden talents."
**[14:07] ---**
"León-kun was friggin' hilarious!"
**[14:10] ---**
So many...
**[14:14] ---**
All anybody's talking about
is your punishment game.
**[14:17] ---**
Comedy routines aren't
punishment when León's involved.
**[14:22] ---**
Isn't it great that everybody
loved it, León-kun?
**[14:26] ---**
Yes! It's wonderful!
**[14:30] ---**
I'd give us a 70%.
**[14:32] ---**
When did you become a comedy teacher?
**[14:34] ---**
Just call him Professor Shinji.
**[14:39] ---**
So it's okay because it all worked out, huh?
**[14:43] ---**
I was happy people liked it, sure.
**[14:45] ---**
But what made me happiest was that
both Shinji-kun and I felt the same way.
**[14:50] ---**
The same way?
**[14:52] ---**
"The show must go on."
**[14:54] ---**
Using English now, eh?
**[14:57] ---**
Once the show starts, it has to
keep going till it reaches the end.
**[15:02] ---**
That's one of ARP's songs, right?
**[15:04] ---**
"The Show Must Go On."
**[15:06] ---**
You're right.
**[15:09] ---**
Being in ARP is fun.
**[15:12] ---**
Regardless of whether you
win or lose in the battles.
**[15:15] ---**
I'm sure they feel the same.
**[15:18] ---**
It's frustrating when you lose.
And maybe you do want to cry...
**[15:26] ---**
But that's part of who we are.
**[15:30] ---**
When everybody's happy, so am I.
**[15:34] ---**
It's lots of fun.
**[15:38] ---**
Whether you can sing or not...
**[15:41] ---**
It's important, sure.
But it's not the only thing.
**[15:44] ---**
I'm part of ARP because I want to
get better at making people happy.
**[15:52] ---**
Every member of ARP is an amazing performer.
**[15:55] ---**
I admire all of them.
**[15:58] ---**
And they let me be one of them.
**[16:01] ---**
*And the winner is: Rage!*
**[16:15] ---**
I couldn't ask to be in a better place.
**[16:19] ---**
Meer-tan, did you know?
**[16:21] ---**
What?
**[16:23] ---**
If you keep smiling,
good things will always happen!
**[16:30] ---**
Well, looks like I'm done here.
**[16:35] ---**
Meer-tan?
**[16:36] ---**
I'm relieved.
**[16:38] ---**
I'll be going now.
**[16:40] ---**
Wait, Meer-tan.
**[16:43] ---**
You actually waited?
**[16:45] ---**
I forgot something.
**[16:48] ---**
Rewind!
**[16:53] ---**
Meer-tan?
**[16:55] ---**
Sing! The audience is waiting!
**[16:58] ---**
"The Show Must Go On!"
**[17:02] ---**
Okay!
**[19:04] ---**
*ARP Backstage Pass* ain't done yet.
***SIGN*** Eraser

León
**[21:13] ---**
Thanks for watching *ARP Backstage
Pass,* everybody. And good evening!
**[21:17] ---**
Hi there.
**[21:19] ---**
It's been a whole three episodes
since you got to see MC León.
**[21:22] ---**
Episode 7 had laughs and tears,
as well as plenty of León action!
**[21:26] ---**
Did you enjoy it?
**[21:28] ---**
I just *know* you did!
**[21:30] ---**
I was too busy staring
at that weird Meer-tan thing
**[21:34] ---**
to really care about anything else.
**[21:35] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:36] ---**
Aw, he wasn't that weird. Was he?
**[21:42] ---**
Well, it was a *unique* episode.
Very true to your brand.
**[21:45] ---**
It was kinda like Episode 5, Rage's episode.
**[21:50] ---**
Hey, no way, man. They were totally different.
**[21:52] ---**
Mine wasn't nearly as weird as this one.
**[21:56] ---**
This one's illegal in some countries.
**[21:58] ---**
Too weird for TV.
**[22:00] ---**
Why? That's not true.
**[22:02] ---**
You don't ever get to
call anybody "surreal" again.
**[22:04] ---**
You're the surreal one.
**[22:06] ---**
Call yourself "Leon the Surreal."
**[22:09] ---**
Oh, come on, it wasn't surreal.
**[22:11] ---**
Well, whether it was surreal or not...
**[22:14] ---**
There was something
we did find a little interesting...
**[22:17] ---**
Right, Daiya-kun? Rage-kun?
**[22:18] ---**
That's right.
**[22:20] ---**
You had plenty of comments
about us, didn't you?
**[22:23] ---**
"Big"? "Scary"?
**[22:25] ---**
"Bangs"?
**[22:26] ---**
That was Meer-tan.
**[22:29] ---**
But he's your superego, right?
**[22:31] ---**
That was his whole deal, wasn't it?
**[22:33] ---**
It was a peek inside León-kun's heart.
**[22:36] ---**
No, you got it wrong.
**[22:37] ---**
I didn't think "scary" or "bangs"
or "tiny" or any of that stuff.
**[22:44] ---**
One of those wasn't in the episode.
**[22:47] ---**
I'm curious, though.
**[22:49] ---**
What's the truth, I wonder?
**[22:52] ---**
That's, um...
**[22:55] ---**
...an eternal human mystery.
**[22:57] ---**
Eternal, you say?
**[22:59] ---**
Oh, yeah. Remember that bit with
the bleep? What got bleeped out?
**[23:04] ---**
Oh, ****?
**[23:05] ---**
What?
**[23:06] ---**
****.
**[23:07] ---**
What?
**[23:08] ---**
****.
**[23:09] ---**
Just forget it.
**[23:11] ---**
It's ****.
**[23:12] ---**
Okay, that's enough bleeps.
I can't hear anything.
**[23:15] ---**
Moving on! So, um, next week!
**[23:18] ---**
Let's hear about next week's episode.
**[23:21] ---**
Daiya-kun.
**[23:21] ---**
Okay, next time on *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[23:25] ---**
In Episode 8, I, Daiya, run
and I run! And I worry!
**[23:31] ---**
It's a teen drama?
**[23:32] ---**
Pretty much.

***SIGN*** Music can change the world.
**[01:46] ---**
Our new song's sweet, huh?
**[01:48] ---**
Yeah, it's badass.
**[01:59] ---**
When we play this at our next concert,
everybody will want to join Rebel Cross.
**[02:06] ---**
You got that right.
**[02:12] ---**
Here's the lineup for the third concert.
**[02:16] ---**
Daiya, we're up against Shinji.
**[02:18] ---**
Let's kick his ass this time.
**[02:20] ---**
Yeah, man, let's do it.
**[02:22] ---**
Don't go too hard on me.
**[02:24] ---**
You ain't even a bit worried?
**[02:26] ---**
That's not what I meant.
**[02:29] ---**
If that's how you took it, I apologize.
**[02:38] ---**
Oh, that's right. Daiya-san, you've
never beaten Shinji-kun, have you?
**[02:47] ---**
Maybe so, but if you lose
your next one, you'll "graduate."
**[02:49] ---**
"Graduate" means "get fired," right?
**[02:52] ---**
I refuse!
**[02:54] ---**
Okay. Everybody's having fun, huh?
**[02:56] ---**
Shut up, old man.
**[02:58] ---**
I refuse to graduate! No way!
**[03:02] ---**
Daiya. What's wrong?
**[03:05] ---**
Oh, sorry.
**[03:07] ---**
Let's take it from the top.
**[03:09] ---**
Well, we're feeling the pressure for once.
**[03:12] ---**
I kinda feel inferior when
it comes to Shinji, weirdly.
**[03:17] ---**
So I started acting even
more out of character.
**[03:27] ---**
What are you watching?
**[03:28] ---**
Oh, it's the last battle.
**[03:31] ---**
Thought I might find some
hint on how to win this one.
**[03:34] ---**
Wow, you mean you're studying?
**[03:36] ---**
I guess.
**[03:38] ---**
Tetsu-san, got any advice?
**[03:40] ---**
Well...
**[03:43] ---**
Get naked.
**[03:46] ---**
You think I should show some muscle?
**[03:49] ---**
I meant metaphorically.
**[03:51] ---**
Anyway, don't let it get to you.
That's not like you.
**[03:55] ---**
Metaphorically, huh?
**[03:57] ---**
Metaphor
**[03:58] ---**

Metaphor
**[03:58] ---**
m 0 0 l 100 0 100 100 0 100
**[03:58] ---**
Noun — a figure of speech in which a word
or phrase is applied to an object or action
to which it is not literally applicable.
**[03:59] ---**
I can't read all this.
**[04:03] ---**
Kanou-kun's weak point?
**[04:05] ---**
Yeah. I bet you know what it is, right?
**[04:10] ---**
Are you seriously asking me that?
**[04:12] ---**
Yes.
**[04:13] ---**
I think maybe that's a question
for when he's not around.
**[04:18] ---**
I'm not the kind of person who
goes behind somebody's back.
**[04:20] ---**
Um... Matsumoto, was it?
**[04:22] ---**
You're his bud. What do you think?
**[04:26] ---**
Let's talk about his strengths,
not his weaknesses.
**[04:31] ---**
Kanou-kun has mastered the
fundamentals of both dancing and singing.
**[04:34] ---**
He always gives the crowd
exactly what they're expecting.
**[04:38] ---**
And he's a real prince. Isn't that right?
**[04:41] ---**
Um, well... I guess.
**[04:45] ---**
You, on the other hand,
are raw and powerful as a singer,
**[04:49] ---**
and you honed your dance
moves on the streets.
**[04:51] ---**
Your performances are always unexpected,
uncalculated, and highly physical.
**[04:56] ---**
They're thrilling to watch.
**[05:00] ---**
Wait, can you use shorter, simpler words?
**[05:04] ---**
Yes. That's it.
**[05:06] ---**
Fierce and simple.
**[05:07] ---**
Straightforward, you could say.
**[05:10] ---**
That's who you are, right?
**[05:24] ---**
Smart people are bad at
explaining stuff, aren't they?
**[05:27] ---**
Thinking wasn't getting me anywhere.
**[05:29] ---**
So I figured I just had to raise my game.
**[05:41] ---**
*More.*
**[05:44] ---**
*More. More!*
**[05:47] ---**
*I need to dig deeper.*
**[05:50] ---**
*Raise my game.*
**[05:55] ---**
*Or I'll lose to Shinji again.*
**[05:59] [SONG]**
Ready! High, high, scream till your voice is hoarse.
**[06:03] [SONG]**
Keep on partying forever.
**[06:07] [SONG]**
Don't stop me! The future's just getting started!
**[06:38] ---**
Tetsu-san?
**[06:39] ---**
Oh, sorry.
**[06:41] ---**
Okay, that's all for today.
**[06:43] ---**
Thank you.
**[06:53] ---**
Tetsu-san, am I doing something wrong?
**[06:58] ---**
I told you. Get naked.
**[07:00] ---**
That "metaphor" again?
**[07:02] ---**
I don't get it. It's too clever for me.
**[07:05] ---**
Then, ask your body.
**[07:14] ---**
So I upped my training even more after that.
**[07:29] ---**
Hey, Daiya.
**[07:42] ---**
Hello?
**[07:44] ---**
I'm going for a run.
**[08:00] ---**
Rage-kun.
**[08:06] ---**
You're too close.
**[08:08] ---**
Daiya-san's been acting weird lately, huh?
**[08:12] ---**
He's been spacing out.
And looking tired all the time.
**[08:16] ---**
What's going on?
**[08:19] ---**
He's doing a 20 km run every
morning, followed by weights.
**[08:22] ---**
Then, practice.
**[08:24] ---**
That's too much for anybody, even Daiya-san!
**[08:27] ---**
Not my problem.
**[08:28] ---**
He's a gorilla. Let him do what he wants.
**[08:43] ---**
It was like, if I felt pain,
that meant I was making progress.
**[08:47] ---**
Thinking back, I guess I was
running from my problems.
**[08:54] ---**
And in the end...
**[08:58] ---**
Hey!
**[09:02] ---**
Daiya!
**[09:03] ---**
Sorry. I slipped.
**[09:05] ---**
Liar.
**[09:06] ---**
Don't push yourself too hard, Daiya.
**[09:09] ---**
Go rest up in the corner.
**[09:10] ---**
Tetsu-san, I...
**[09:13] ---**
Rest.
**[09:15] ---**
Okay.
**[09:21] ---**
Sorry.
**[09:23] ---**
For what?
**[09:33] ---**
I never thought the day would come
when you'd have to carry my stuff.
**[09:37] ---**
I can carry it just fine.
**[09:39] ---**
I'm not a kid anymore.
**[09:40] ---**
Right.
**[09:42] ---**
Get to bed when we get home.
**[09:43] ---**
Can't have you collapsing and
slowing me down again, right?
**[10:02] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:06] ---**
ARP.
**[10:11] ---**
ARP.
**[10:15] ---**
Koumoto-kun collapsed
from overworking himself?
**[10:18] ---**
He must've seriously overdone it.
**[10:20] ---**
Don't go making the same mistake yourself.
**[10:24] ---**
Kanou-kun?
**[10:26] ---**
I know exactly how Daiya feels.
**[10:29] ---**
When I stop moving,
I sometimes get really anxious.
**[10:34] ---**
Anxious I'll lose my next battle.
**[10:36] ---**
Anxious I might never win a battle again.
**[10:39] ---**
That fear is always at my back.
**[10:43] ---**
If I keep on winning,
will it get easier someday?
**[10:47] ---**
Or will I feel better if I lose?
**[10:53] ---**
Just kidding.
**[10:55] ---**
Off to practice?
**[10:57] ---**
Yeah. I can't afford to lose.
**[11:00] ---**
I'm carrying the pride
of all my past victories,
**[11:03] ---**
and the wishes of the
princesses who support me.

*What am I doing?*
**[11:19] ---**
*What should I be doing?*

*I have to beat Shinji.*
**[11:23] ---**
Daiya?
**[11:25] ---**
Senpai?
**[11:26] ---**
What are you doing out here?
**[11:28] ---**
Well, you see...
**[11:29] ---**
Where's Lord Rage? He's not with you?
**[11:32] ---**
Uh, no...
**[11:35] ---**
Let's go have some fun. It's been a while.

Rage-kun?
**[13:09] ---**
You're making too much noise.
**[13:11] ---**
Don't forget, you live next to Rage-sama.
**[13:13] ---**
Sorry.
**[13:15] ---**
I can wear shoes in here, right?
**[13:16] ---**
What? No, take them off.
**[13:20] ---**
I'm thirsty. And I want sweets.
**[13:22] ---**
Get them yourself.
**[13:23] ---**
Is hospitality a foreign concept to you?
**[13:25] ---**
Now, be a good host and
fetch your pal Rage some snacks.
**[13:29] ---**
"Good host"? Dream on.
**[13:31] ---**
What's going on with Daiya-san?
**[13:34] ---**
No idea.
**[13:35] ---**
Where'd he go?
**[13:36] ---**
No idea.
**[13:37] ---**
Is he feeling okay?

Perform your summoning

Daiya.
**[14:08] ---**
You're hitting your notes more cleanly.
**[14:10] ---**
Oh, you think so?
**[14:11] ---**
It wasn't a compliment.
**[14:18] ---**
You've gone somewhere
different with your singing.
**[14:24] ---**
Pitch-perfect performances are bland.
**[14:28] ---**
Of course, hitting your
notes is important, but...
**[14:33] ---**
If it's not from here, what's the point?
**[14:38] ---**
You used to sing songs that pushed you to
your limit. Songs that made your heart burn.
**[14:44] ---**
When we saw you and Rage off,
**[14:47] ---**
we believed you guys would stay
the same, no matter where you went.
**[14:53] (Flashback) ---**
Get naked.
**[14:59] ---**
Make me feel that burning feeling again.
**[15:05] ---**
You're right.
**[15:11] ---**
That's enough, Rage-kun.
**[15:14] ---**
You'll be sick if you eat any more candy.
**[15:19] ---**
I'm going home.
**[15:20] ---**
Is Daiya-san back?
**[15:23] ---**
What's going on?
**[15:33] ---**
I bumped into our old bandmates.
**[15:38] ---**
Yeah?
**[15:41] ---**
They lectured me.
**[15:43] ---**
Lecturing's what old people do.
**[15:46] ---**
That's not fair. They're only
five years older than us.
**[15:50] ---**
Once you start lecturing people, you're old.
**[15:53] ---**
Maybe.
**[15:59] ---**
For this next concert...
**[16:01] ---**
Yeah?
**[16:03] ---**
I'm gonna get naked.
**[16:07] ---**
What?
**[16:10] ---**
*Okay, it's now time for the battle song!*
**[16:13] ---**
* A one-on-one duel between*
* Shinji-kun and Daiya-kun.*
**[16:16] ---**
Shinji, let's have some fun.
**[16:20] ---**
Yeah. Let's have a good time.
**[16:32] ---**
It's started.
**[16:35] ---**
Daiya-san's being weird.
**[16:38] ---**
He's naked, after all.
**[16:51] ---**
Well, isn't this something?
**[16:52] ---**
It's more a street fight
than a dance routine.
**[16:55] ---**
He's stark naked.
**[16:57] ---**
Go, Daiya!
**[17:00] ---**
He's crazy, but seriously cool!
**[17:03] ---**
What *is* this?
**[17:04] ---**
Right?
**[17:05] ---**
This is Daiya.
**[17:14] ---**
I'm sorry, Kanou-kun...
**[17:18] ---**
Shinji-kun's amazing, but this is...
**[17:22] ---**
This time, Daiya-san will...
**[17:24] ---**
*The winner is...*
**[17:29] ---**
*Daiya!*
**[17:31] ---**
Yes!
**[17:35] ---**
Thanks for cheering me on, everybody!
**[17:39] ---**
I did it, Rage!
**[17:42] ---**
I can tell that from here.
**[17:44] ---**
Rage, you meanie.
**[17:47] ---**
**[17:54] ---**
**[17:57] ---**
**[17:59] ---**
**[18:06] ---**
**[18:12] ---**
**[18:15] ---**
**[18:19] ---**
**[18:22] ---**
**[18:26] ---**
**[18:29] ---**
**[18:33] ---**
**[18:36] ---**
**[18:41] ---**
**[18:45] ---**
**[18:49] ---**
**[18:52] ---**
**[18:59] ---**
**[19:06] ---**
**[19:08] ---**
**[19:27] ---**
**[19:30] ---**
**[19:34] ---**
**[19:37] ---**
**[19:40] ---**
**[19:44] ---**
**[21:20] ---**
To all you out there watching
*ARP Backstage Pass*, good evening!
**[21:25] ---**
Good evening.
**[21:26] ---**
So you all just watched Episode 8.
**[21:29] ---**
And it was all about me, Daiya.
**[21:34] ---**
What did you think?
**[21:35] ---**
You sure ran a lot, didn't ya?
**[21:37] ---**
It's like you went, "All I need
to do to impress the viewers is run!"
**[21:41] ---**
You see that all the time on TV.
**[21:42] ---**
No, it wasn't!
**[21:43] ---**
What episode were *you* watching?
**[21:45] ---**
Well, that's what he says.
**[21:48] ---**
But you know, there was that flashback
with Daiya-kun and Rage-kun, right?
**[21:53] ---**
It felt like the bond between
you two was truly special.
**[21:58] ---**
You had your hankie out, Shinji-kun.
**[22:01] ---**
Maybe once or twice.
**[22:02] ---**
It was a nice moment.
**[22:04] ---**
Yeah, that.
**[22:05] ---**
I understand they had
to do that for the anime...
**[22:07] ---**
But is it really worth shedding tears over?
**[22:10] ---**
That makes me feel kinda weird.
**[22:13] ---**
Well, you know. All you need to do to engage
the viewers is throw some kids in there.
**[22:19] ---**
Can I have my tears back?
**[22:22] ---**
Oh, and there were the
Cross Bone guys, too, right?
**[22:26] ---**
Yeah. That.
**[22:27] ---**
We got the real people to
help with the recording.
**[22:32] ---**
Like for that song: "Black Sapphire."
**[22:34] ---**
It's been forever since I sung it.
**[22:35] ---**
Who told you that you could sing my part?
**[22:39] ---**
The script did. What do you want from me?
**[22:41] ---**
So is Endou behind this again?
Did he put you up to this?
**[22:44] ---**
"Director" Endou.
**[22:46] ---**
Director. Sorry, director!
**[22:48] ---**
They were all so cool.
With their dandy outfits and stuff.
**[22:51] ---**
"Dandy" is a little much.
**[22:53] ---**
Anyway, to explain, they were our
bandmates before we joined ARP.
**[22:59] ---**
They used to do session work,
and they were in a bunch of bands.
**[23:03] ---**
But Rage talked to them,
and then, got me involved,
**[23:05] ---**
and that's how Cross Bone started.
**[23:07] ---**
Daiya was all like,
"I'm gonna be a rock star!"
**[23:11] ---**
But then he didn't do anything.
So I became his producer.
**[23:14] ---**
It wasn't quite like that, but sure.
**[23:16] ---**
But you were both in
middle school, right?
**[23:19] ---**
I'm amazed grown-ups
decided to join your band.
**[23:22] ---**
Well, that was all thanks
to the famous Rage charisma.
**[23:24] ---**
Sure, sure...
**[23:26] ---**
Anyway, on to the preview!
**[23:28] ---**
Next time, Rage-kun and I will
be forming a unit of our own!
**[23:32] ---**
Shinji-kun kicks butt, ya dig?

**[01:36] ---**
You want me to tell you about Super Rare?
**[01:39] ---**
I see.
**[01:41] ---**
There's a whole lot I could
tell you about them,
**[01:45] ---**
but droning on and on suits no one,
so I'll give you the short version.
**[01:51] ---**
The concept was to pair up
two extremely talented individuals...
**[01:55] ---**
...but I was actually thinking,
"Well, that's no good."
**[01:59] ---**
So to cut a long story short,
I guess that was their answer.
**[02:03] ---**
Did you want to know more?
**[02:07] ---**
* Shinji Kanou-kun and Rage Hida-kun,*
* please report to the Director's Office.*
**[02:09] ---**
Read
**[02:09] ---**
Your
**[02:09] ---**
Mind
**[02:09] ---**
Read
**[02:09] ---**
Your
**[02:09] ---**
Mind
**[02:30] ---**
I want you to do something with
Super Rare that nobody's ever done before.
**[02:36] ---**
These clothes, for instance.
**[02:44] ---**
This is, uh...
**[02:46] ---**
I mean, the stomach...
**[02:49] ---**
It's certainly interesting, though.
**[02:51] ---**
I could uncover a new side of myself.
**[02:53] ---**
Not a chance in hell.
**[02:55] ---**
Is it a little *too* daring?
**[02:57] ---**
But if you can't accept
showing a little skin...
**[03:01] ---**
Why's Shinji #01 and I'm #02?
**[03:05] ---**
Rage is always the top dog.
**[03:06] ---**
Oh, that? That's the bit you don't like?
**[03:10] ---**
Okay, then. Rage can have the #01, and Shinji—
**[03:13] ---**
No, that would look strange.
**[03:17] ---**
I think, in terms of our brand,
I need to have the #01.
**[03:20] ---**
Ah, you want to keep it?
**[03:22] ---**
Huh? Are you stupid? I'm numero uno...
**[03:25] ---**
Sheesh... These two working together, huh?
**[03:29] ---**
Yes. These rules were your idea.
**[03:32] ---**
They were, weren't they?
**[03:36] ---**
I heard Super Rare's song.
**[03:38] ---**
"Read Your Mind," right? It's sweet.
**[03:41] ---**
I guess.
**[03:43] ---**
You're doing synchronized
dancing with Shinji, right?
**[03:47] ---**
Yeah. Beardy mentioned something
about that, but who cares?
**[03:53] ---**
For now, teach me how to dance,
Daiya. Don't teach him.
**[04:02] ---**
The choreography for this
new song, "Read Your Mind,"
**[04:04] ---**
requires your movements to be in sync.
**[04:07] ---**
Which means I'll be the one
teaching this stuff to you and Rage.
**[04:13] ---**
But I already asked
León-kun to partner with me.
**[04:17] ---**
It only works if you
two do it together.
**[04:20] ---**
What he said.
**[04:21] ---**
Right, let's do this.
**[04:55] ---**
Okay, one more time.
**[05:05] ---**
What the hell?
**[05:07] ---**
Are they doing that deliberately?
**[05:09] ---**
Are they gonna have this
routine ready by the concert?
**[05:16] ---**
Hey, they did *that* in sync.
**[05:20] ---**
Shinji, you need to be
more direct. More powerful.
**[05:24] ---**
It's like... you think this
is ballet or something.
**[05:29] ---**
Shinji can just do ballet behind me, then.
**[05:33] ---**
Right?
**[05:34] ---**
Rage-kun, maybe you should learn
the moves before criticizing others.
**[05:39] ---**
I will. After you change into your tights.
**[05:44] ---**
Take what I say seriously.
**[05:46] ---**
I *am* being serious.
**[05:47] ---**
Is this really the time to be fighting?
**[05:49] ---**
You need to get it together or you'll bomb.
**[06:15] ---**
Rage-kun, you read the paper?
**[06:18] ---**
Who doesn't?
**[06:21] ---**
I get my news online.
**[06:23] ---**
A paper tells you what
the experts are saying.
**[06:29] ---**
Ah, I see.
**[06:30] ---**
Can you really sing this
song if you're like that?
**[06:33] ---**
The theme is: "the era we live in."
**[06:35] ---**
I know about generation
gaps and stuff like that.
**[06:41] ---**
Just knowing isn't good enough.
**[06:43] ---**
You need understanding and sympathy.
**[06:50] ---**
What paper is that?
**[06:52] ---**
Why?
**[06:54] ---**
I figure I might read it, too.
**[06:57] ---**
Gonna study, huh?
**[06:59] ---**
You get an A, Shinji.
**[07:04] ---**
You know, I really respect you, Daiya.
**[07:07] ---**
Where'd that come from? Why?
**[07:10] ---**
Is Rage-kun always like that?
**[07:14] ---**
It's like he only thinks about himself.
**[07:18] ---**
Yeah...
**[07:20] ---**
But Rage is Rage. He believes
in doing things his own way.
**[07:28] ---**
Y'know, it really gets on my nerves.
**[07:31] ---**
It gets on your nerves, huh?
**[07:33] ---**
A while back, he stepped on my foot,
then told me I was in his way.
**[07:38] ---**
Well... That's normal for him.
**[07:46] ---**
I see.
**[07:47] ---**
Rage is #00 and Shinji is #01.
**[07:50] ---**
Well, it was inevitable.
**[07:53] ---**
Huh? Why does he get a shirt?
**[07:58] ---**
Somebody said I'd look better in a shirt.
**[08:03] ---**
Well, my body is a work of art.
**[08:06] ---**
I guess yours isn't.
**[08:10] ---**
Hey, it's okay to wear
a necktie without a shirt, right?
**[08:15] ---**
Yeah. If it's you, I think it'll look fine.
**[08:21] ---**
Why's he always so arrogant?
**[08:24] ---**
Who does he think he is?
**[08:27] ---**
A prince, huh?
**[08:29] ---**
Well, he *is* a prince, right? Prince Shinji.
**[08:31] ---**
And he's a year older than us.
**[08:34] ---**
What the hell?
**[08:35] ---**
Does that give him the right to
look down on Rage the Magnificent?
**[08:38] ---**
Well?
**[08:43] ---**
I'm so happy!
**[08:45] ---**
Yes! This Japanese lunch is delicious!
**[08:49] ---**
Ginger pork!
**[08:51] ---**
Kanou-kun.
**[08:53] ---**
You look seriously stressed.
**[08:56] ---**
Your new duo not working out?
**[08:59] ---**
Ugh, I just don't know what he's thinking.
**[09:03] ---**
If he doesn't want to work with me,
we'll never be able to dance in sync.
**[09:07] ---**
And anyway, Rage-kun is kind of...
**[09:09] ---**
Kanou-kun!
**[09:11] ---**
This seat's free, yeah?
**[09:19] ---**
Sure, go for it.
**[09:28] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[09:29] ---**
It's okay, really. It's fine.
**[09:35] ---**
Why are you incapable
of thinking of others?
**[09:39] ---**
He said it was okay.
**[09:42] ---**
That's not what I meant!
**[09:44] ---**
I'm saying your inability
to think about other people
**[09:47] ---**
might explain why your dancing stinks.
**[09:53] ---**
I might be imagining it, but...
**[09:56] ---**
Are you picking a fight with me?
**[09:59] ---**
Don't go changing the subject.
**[10:01] ---**
Um... I'm fine! Really!
**[10:07] ---**
You're a funny guy.
**[10:09] ---**
Come on, then.
**[10:10] ---**
I don't want to fight.
**[10:13] ---**
You *can't* fight, you mean.
**[10:15] ---**
Come on. Take a swing.
**[10:17] ---**
Think of it as a new challenge
to try your hand at.
**[10:20] ---**
Come on, bro.
**[10:26] ---**
What's wrong?
**[10:28] ---**
Knock it off!
**[10:39] ---**
Awesome. Get him!
**[10:41] ---**
No! Daiya-san, stop him!
**[10:46] ---**
Don't screw with me.
**[10:50] ---**
Rage-kun, you don't play fair!
**[10:52] ---**
You always try to change the subject!
**[10:55] ---**
Take this seriously, will you?!
**[10:58] ---**
Shut your idiot mouth!
**[11:04] ---**
Okay, that's enough.
**[11:14] ---**
ARP.
**[11:19] ---**
ARP.
**[11:26] ---**
You two need to make up already.
**[11:30] ---**
You and Shinji-kun, I mean.
**[11:31] ---**
Super Rare will crash and burn otherwise.
**[11:35] ---**
That's not your problem.
**[11:36] ---**
It so is!
**[11:38] ---**
I'm looking forward to seeing the
two of you perform as Super Rare.
**[11:44] ---**
But there are also lots of people
who want to hear your song.
**[11:50] ---**
Here.
**[11:57] ---**
That was awful.
**[11:59] ---**
I've never been so embarrassed.
**[12:02] ---**
Why? It was awesome.
**[12:04] ---**
Don't joke around.
**[12:05] ---**
I'm being serious.
**[12:06] ---**
I liked it when you snapped at Rage.
**[12:11] ---**
You're always so above it all.
**[12:17] ---**
I'm an idiot, so this probably
won't come out right,
**[12:20] ---**
but why don't you just look him in the
eye and tell him how you really feel?
**[12:25] ---**
Tell each other, I mean.
**[12:28] ---**
But I don't think Rage-kun and
I can get along anymore.
**[12:40] ---**
I heard what happened in the cafeteria.
**[12:42] ---**
What's going on with you two?
**[12:49] ---**
I see. Say no more.
**[12:52] ---**
We'll disband Super Rare.
**[12:56] ---**
The results of the battles meant you two
got paired together. And it didn't work out.
**[13:00] ---**
Or maybe this new concept
was just too difficult
**[13:04] ---**
for two people who are chalk and cheese, hm?
**[13:08] ---**
Shinji-kun, you need to stay a prince.
**[13:13] ---**
You're a model student.
Don't try and change your character.
**[13:18] ---**
Shinji's a model student? Who decided that?
**[13:22] ---**
Model students don't start fights.
**[13:25] ---**
Don't force him to be the
"character" you want him to be.
**[13:33] ---**
Rage-kun, what about you?
Forget him for a moment.
**[13:37] ---**
You've got less experience
than the others as a dancer.
**[13:40] ---**
That's a pretty major skill you're lacking.
**[13:43] ---**
But you still skip dance practice.
**[13:45] ---**
And that selfish attitude of yours
is why you keep failing, right?
**[13:49] ---**
Right, Shinji-kun?
**[13:51] ---**
Failing?
**[13:54] ---**
I'm afraid, Director, that Rage-kun is Rage-kun
and he has his own way of doing things.
**[14:00] ---**
He has an inspiration that we cannot match...
**[14:03] ---**
A charisma we lack.
**[14:05] ---**
There's no point in trying to define him
by the amount of time he practices.
**[14:09] ---**
There's still time.
**[14:11] ---**
Please don't call off our performance.
**[14:19] ---**
Oh, to be young again...
**[14:21] ---**
But I'm afraid it's hopeless.
**[14:24] ---**
Let's call it off.
**[14:26] ---**
Do your regular acts.
**[14:28] ---**
I'm sure you'll figure it out.
**[14:29] ---**
You're good at figuring things out.
**[14:31] ---**
It's what your generation does best, right?
**[14:35] ---**
What the hell?
**[14:36] ---**
I admit this hasn't gone well.
**[14:39] ---**
But saying it's because we're young or because
we're of a certain generation is upsetting.
**[14:45] ---**
But it's the truth.
**[14:46] ---**
True or not...
**[14:48] ---**
We can do this.
**[14:50] ---**
We'll make Super Rare a success.
**[14:53] ---**
Well, you're saying all the right things, but...
**[14:57] ---**
I'll show you whether we're all talk
or not when we get up on stage.
**[15:02] ---**
I'll put my pride as a performer on the line.
**[15:06] ---**
Your "pride," huh?
**[15:07] ---**
Hey! You're insulting our performances now?
**[15:11] ---**
We've had our problems,
but we've overcome them!
**[15:14] ---**
Because it's the four of us!
**[15:18] ---**
So we'll make it a success from now on!
**[15:22] ---**
That's the deal. Got it, you old fart?
**[15:25] ---**
Calling him an "old fart" is rude, Rage-kun.
**[15:27] ---**
Just call him "old man."
**[15:30] ---**
That's just as bad.
**[15:33] ---**
Anyway!
**[15:34] ---**
Just shut up and wait for the concert.
**[15:37] ---**
We'll make it the ultimate performance.
**[15:42] ---**
Don't mess with us!
**[15:51] ---**
How'd it go?
**[15:53] ---**
We're doing this.
**[15:56] ---**
Awesome!
**[15:58] ---**
You riled them up deliberately, didn't you?
**[16:00] ---**
D'you think they hate me now?
**[16:03] ---**
And you're from the
"take-it-easy" generation, right?
**[16:06] ---**
Please refrain from talking, sir.
**[16:14] ---**
Rage, move your legs!
**[16:16] ---**
Shinji, your arms!
**[16:19] ---**
You're focusing too much on the
moves and not on your power!
**[16:21] ---**
Think of me as the director!
**[16:23] ---**
Get madder!
**[16:28] ---**
So cool!
**[16:29] ---**
One more time!
**[16:31] ---**
Nice!
**[16:48] ---**
Nice.
**[16:50] ---**
You were perfectly in sync!
**[17:02] ---**
But you can't do that?
**[17:05] ---**
You should've tried to match me.
**[17:08] ---**
No, you match me.
**[17:09] ---**
It's both of you!
**[17:10] ---**
Hey, let's take a photo
to celebrate your success!
**[17:14] ---**
Seriously?
***SIGN*** Read Your Mind
**[19:21] ---**
That was Super Rare.
**[19:25] ---**
Yup. It was Super Rare, all right.
**[21:10] ---**
Thanks for watching *ARP Backstage
Pass* everybody, and good evening!
**[21:14] ---**
Hi!
**[21:16] ---**
Okay, so...
**[21:19] ---**
That was Super Rare...
**[21:22] ---**
Huh? What's that supposed to mean?
**[21:24] ---**
I haven't got a clue.
**[21:26] ---**
Come on, guys, cut him some slack.
**[21:28] ---**
After all, he got his ass kicked
by Rage on national television.
**[21:33] ---**
No, that's not what happened at all.
**[21:36] ---**
It was a tie, I think.
**[21:38] ---**
Yeah, but, Shinji-kun,
your shirt was a total mess.
**[21:43] ---**
The whole cafeteria was staring.
**[21:45] ---**
Daiya-san, you were just
kinda standing there, sighing.
**[21:49] ---**
We can laugh about it now,
**[21:51] ---**
but at the time, I was like,
"What will become of ARP?"
**[21:55] ---**
Yes. I honestly feel really bad about that.
**[21:59] ---**
I'm sorry you had to see that.
**[22:01] ---**
But you know, I think it was necessary.
**[22:05] ---**
Until that moment, these two didn't really
look at each other when they talked.
**[22:09] ---**
Isn't that right?
**[22:11] ---**
Like when they were backstage.
**[22:13] ---**
Hm, you might be right there.
**[22:16] ---**
But of course, violence is wrong!
**[22:19] ---**
That's right. Violence is scary.
You should never resort to it.
**[22:24] ---**
But you were trying to get a reaction—
**[22:26] ---**
Stop it, you two.
**[22:28] ---**
So, um... Super Rare!
**[22:31] ---**
Changing the subject, huh?
**[22:32] ---**
Go with it.
**[22:33] ---**
The dancing.
**[22:34] ---**
We helped you out with the moves, right?
**[22:37] ---**
And that kinda got ignored.
**[22:39] ---**
Yeah, man. We helped you guys out a lot!
**[22:43] ---**
Yeah, Shinji's really—
**[22:44] ---**
Both of us.
**[22:46] ---**
It was both of us.
**[22:49] ---**
It was kinda fun, though!
**[22:51] ---**
Right now, we do a lot
of things as a four-man unit,
**[22:54] ---**
but we didn't do that back then.
**[22:57] ---**
It was all really new, right?
**[22:59] ---**
Yeah, it was, wasn't it?
**[23:01] ---**
But León and I learned the moves first—
**[23:04] ---**
Okay, okay, okay. Guys, nobody cares.
**[23:08] ---**
Why don't you tell us what
you thought about the episode?
**[23:10] ---**
Come on.
**[23:13] ---**
I didn't think anything.
**[23:14] ---**
You didn't?
**[23:16] ---**
Well, I guess you both worked hard?
**[23:18] ---**
That's not good enough.
**[23:20] ---**
Next episode preview time!
**[23:21] ---**
That's too sudden.
**[23:22] ---**
Our story's reaching its climax.
**[23:26] ---**
What will happen to ARP?
**[23:27] ---**
Nothing whatsoever.
**[23:29] ---**
Who could believe what happened to Shinji?
**[23:33] ---**
Did something happen?
**[23:36] ---**
Nothing happens.

But...
**[02:47] ---**
He shows me lots of people I could be.
**[02:51] ---**
I think that's who he is.
**[02:56] ---**
Someday, I want to be able to

**[03:21] ---**
I'm sure I will someday...
**[03:54] ---**
You're asking me that, too?

You need to ask Daiya something simpler.

And then, words come out of my mouth...
**[08:43] ---**
I guess I'm just gifted, huh?
**[09:12] ---**
But really... it's about courage and endeavor.
**[09:16] ---**
They'll take me anywhere I want to go.
**[09:52] ---**
And done!
**[10:00] ---**
When I'm alone, I start doubting myself...
**[10:04] ---**
But... with my friends
supporting me, I can do anything.
**[10:09] ---**
You ready, Shinji?
**[10:10] ---**
Okay, Daiya-kun.
***SIGN*** Read Your Mind
**[12:23] ---**
Looking at the video,
**[12:26] ---**
don't you think that "León-Daiya"
is a better name than Super Rare?
**[12:30] ---**
You said it.
**[12:31] ---**
Hey, come on now.
**[12:32] ---**
Seriously?
**[12:34] ---**
We were acting like
real artists up till then.
**[12:37] ---**
Nah, as long as León's around, that's impossible.
**[12:40] ---**
Hey! That's not true.
**[12:43] ---**
But you know...
**[12:45] ---**
Compared to back then,
we've turned into a real team.
**[12:50] ---**
Right?
**[12:50] ---**
Yeah. I really think we have.
**[12:53] ---**
Hey, now. Why are you trying
to get us back on-topic?
**[12:57] ---**
'Cause that's our job. Is that so wrong?
**[13:00] ---**
Okay, Rage-kun, act like an artist
and hit us with your viewpoint.
**[13:03] ---**
Hey, you guys "act." I'm the real deal.
**[13:10] ---**
Don't get it wrong.
**[13:13] ---**
Artists, idols, performers...
I don't think it matters.
**[13:19] ---**
It's for the rest of the world to decide.
**[13:23] ---**
I think we're part of ARP because
of the things we believe in.
**[13:28] ---**
Shinji-kun... That's really nice.
**[13:31] ---**
I think I've heard some of those
words somewhere else, though.
**[13:36] ---**
Oh, yeah. In that song, right?

**[19:02] ---**
Hello, everybody out there
watching *ARP Backstage Pass*!
**[19:06] ---**
Hey, there!
**[19:08] ---**
This is the last episode
of *ARP Backstage Pass*.
**[19:12] ---**
You got a chance to see how we grew,
**[19:15] ---**
as well as a lot of footage
from our concerts.
**[19:18] ---**
A lot's happened, but now that
it's over, it feels like it flew by.
**[19:22] ---**
Right?
**[19:23] ---**
Let's just keep going.
**[19:25] ---**
Don't be ridiculous.
**[19:27] ---**
Though, to be honest,
it was chaos at the studio.
**[19:31] ---**
I'm honestly amazed
we managed to get it done.
**[19:34] ---**
You said it.
**[19:37] ---**
Okay, let's all sign off with
some words from each of us.
**[19:41] ---**
Starting with Daiya-kun.
**[19:42] ---**
Okay.
**[19:44] ---**
To all out there who watched
*Backstage Pass*: did you enjoy our show?
**[19:48] ---**
I hope you did.
**[19:49] ---**
We did our best and so did the staff.
**[19:52] ---**
Thanks, everybody.
**[19:55] ---**
Okay. León.
**[19:56] ---**
Okay!
**[19:58] ---**
Thanks for watching the anime, everybody!
**[20:02] ---**
I feel like we've grown up
a lot doing this anime.
**[20:06] ---**
Come to one of our concerts
and see how much we've grown.
**[20:12] ---**
Bye-bye.
**[20:14] ---**
See you soon.
**[20:16] ---**
Okay. Rage-kun.
**[20:18] ---**
Well, some stuff worked.
And some stuff utterly failed.
**[20:25] ---**
But I'm sure that, for my gang,
and for all you ARS out there,
**[20:29] ---**
it was a valuable experience.
**[20:32] ---**
But instead of a goodbye,
I always say the same thing.
**[20:37] ---**
Let's see each other again soon. At a concert.
**[20:40] ---**
Later.
**[20:42] ---**
Thanks.
**[20:45] ---**
This anime ends today.
**[20:47] ---**
But we'll keep creating our own story
in our concerts, with all of you!
**[20:54] ---**
See you on the stage!
**[20:56] ---**
So this is really goodbye now.
**[20:59] ---**
We will now sing our gratitude to all of you.
**[21:04] ---**
We hope you'll listen.
**[21:05] ---**
"The Ultimate Good-bye."
***SIGN*** The Ultimate Good-bye
**[23:32] ---**
You guys are the best. I love you.
**[23:34] ---**
Thank you all so much!
**[23:36] ---**
Bye!
**[23:36] ---**
See you around.

**[00:00] ---**
Oh, miss you Dahlia!
**[00:05] ---**
Seeking you so much, it drives me mad!
**[00:13] ---**
Oh, my Dahlia!
**[00:15] ---**
I want to steal everything from you.
**[00:19] ---**
Take you to someplace where we're all alone
**[00:26] ---**
and never let you go again.
**[00:54] ---**
We hope to see you at a future show!
**[00:59] ---**
So what are we going to do?
**[01:01] ---**
The summer concert's coming up
and we're nowhere near ready.
**[01:13] ---**
Let's go over the major points again.
**[01:16] ---**
First off, we need to come up
with a new stage effect...
**[01:19] ---**
I'll spell it out for you.
People go to concerts for the music.
**[01:23] ---**
They don't go to see
some stupid effect. Got it?
**[01:27] ---**
They go for the dancing, too.
That's where we shine.
**[01:31] ---**
Well, that's true, but we need to reach
out to our fans, and bring us all together
**[01:36] ---**
so it feels like we're all one big family—
**[01:39] ---**
Talking of "bringing together"...
The new song's dance moves...
**[01:42] ---**
We're not gonna have them down in time.
**[01:44] ---**
You two definitely won't, Rage and Shinji.
**[01:47] ---**
We're talking about the concert right now.
**[01:50] ---**
We've been given an important task:
to self-produce a concert.
**[01:54] ---**
But we've made zero progress in three days.
**[01:56] ---**
Zero!
**[01:57] ---**
So just let me sing. Problem solved.
**[02:06] ---**
León-kun... are you even listening?
**[02:09] ---**
Hm? Oh, uh... I want to dance with everyone.
**[02:13] ---**
To dance with the ARS!
**[02:16] ---**
I see.
**[02:18] ---**
The hell we gonna do about the new song?
**[02:20] ---**
We need to sort it out, pronto!
**[02:23] ---**
What are we gonna do about "Paradise"?
**[04:02] ---**
Okay, let's try it with
all four of us together.
**[04:07] ---**
Wait a second.
**[04:08] ---**
I'll record us.
**[04:29] ---**
*What is this?*
**[04:35] ---**
*Huh?*
**[04:40] ---**
*What am I watching?*
**[04:45] ---**
*This is worse than I thought.*
**[04:53] ---**
I spent more time focusing
on the steps than I thought.
**[04:55] ---**
Sorry.
**[04:56] ---**
Why are you apologizing, Shinji-kun?
**[04:59] ---**
Right, guys?
**[05:03] ---**
Okay! One more time.
We'll start by checking our positions.
**[05:34] ---**
You guys are total slackers.
**[05:37] ---**
I told you, didn't I? We're in bad shape.
**[05:39] ---**
Yes, it's very different than being
in sync with just one other person.
**[05:43] ---**
Right?
**[05:45] ---**
Staying in formation as a foursome
requires pro-level dancing skills.
**[05:51] ---**
But Shinji-kun and Rage-kun are almost there.
**[05:55] ---**
Hey, now. You telling us you've mastered it?
**[05:58] ---**
Rage-kun, let's just admit it.
**[06:01] ---**
There's a lot we need to learn from
León-kun and Daiya-kun about dancing.
**[06:10] ---**
Okay, so how about we use them as
backup dancers in the next concert?
**[06:14] ---**
I'll do the singing.
**[06:16] ---**
Huh? Then, what will I do?
**[06:19] ---**
MC?
**[06:21] ---**
I want to be the MC!
**[06:24] ---**
Dude, no. Not a chance in a hell.
**[06:26] ---**
No way.
**[06:27] ---**
Why?
**[06:28] ---**
No way.
**[06:28] ---**
"No way"?
**[06:29] ---**
We're not going to come together like this.
**[06:32] ---**
Or find a new performance style...
**[06:34] ---**
Is that really how it is?
**[06:37] ---**
Matsumoto-kun?
**[06:39] ---**
Yes.
**[06:40] ---**
Sorry to interrupt,
but I have one thing to say to you.
**[06:43] ---**
It's Sunday today.
**[06:45] ---**
What the heck are you doing here?
**[06:47] ---**
What am I doing here?
**[06:49] ---**
Why, I'm here to help ARP, of course.
**[06:56] ---**
In that case, go buy me a strawberry au lait.
**[06:58] ---**
I want some coffee.
**[06:59] ---**
Well, uh, I mean... Okay!
**[07:10] ---**
Let's go.
**[07:11] ---**
One, two...
**[07:18] ---**
Nice.
**[07:20] ---**
Thanks.
**[07:21] ---**
Let's compete!
**[07:23] ---**
All right.
**[07:25] ---**
Six, seven, eight!
**[07:32] ---**
Let's go!
**[07:51] ---**
You nearly had it, Rage-kun.
**[07:53] ---**
There's a lot of movement in the center.
**[07:55] ---**
This is tough.
**[07:56] ---**
You'll overlap with me if you're here.
**[08:01] ---**
Daiya-kun and I should try crouching, maybe?
**[08:05] ---**
Like this.
**[08:07] ---**
I see.
**[08:09] ---**
Looks good!
**[08:10] ---**
I'll do it, too!
**[08:23] ---**
That's so cool!
**[08:26] ---**
Now it's easy to go into the next part.
**[08:28] ---**
What do you think, Rage?
**[08:29] ---**
Hm... 39, I guess.
**[09:06] ---**
Sorry, Leon.
**[09:09] ---**
You go there. I'll go here.
**[09:13] ---**
Sure. Like this?
**[09:16] ---**
No, it'll look cooler if we're closer.
**[09:20] ---**
Yeah. Let's try it one more time.
**[09:23] ---**
Daiya. Shinji. Come on, let's do it.
**[09:40] ---**
Lookin' good?
**[09:42] ---**
It's okay, I guess.
**[09:45] ---**
Yes!
**[09:50] ---**
I think we're in good shape.
**[09:53] ---**
Yeah. It's super cool.
**[09:56] ---**
Rage-kun, you worked real hard.
**[09:58] ---**
Shut your mouth.
**[09:59] ---**
Okay, let's talk about the concert.
**[10:03] ---**
Huh? Right now?
**[10:05] ---**
Well, we need to at some
point or we'll never sort it.
**[10:08] ---**
Is that really how it is?
**[10:11] ---**
Matsumoto-kun?
**[10:12] ---**
You're still here?
**[10:14] ---**
I am.
**[10:15] ---**
Actually, I've been here the whole time.
**[10:18] ---**
Then.
**[10:19] ---**
And then.
**[10:21] ---**
And then!
**[10:25] ---**
You scare me.
**[10:30] ---**
Here. Your strawberry au lait and coffee.
**[10:36] ---**
ARP.
**[10:41] ---**
ARP.
**[10:44] ---**
I was listening to you the whole time,
**[10:48] ---**
and watching you practice, and I thought:
**[10:52] ---**
All your opinions point in one direction.
**[10:56] ---**
Huh? What do you mean?
**[10:59] ---**
I collated all of your opinions.
**[11:02] ---**
"Switch off MCs"?
**[11:05] ---**
I see!
**[11:06] ---**
Wait, we go straight into
a battle after the opening?
**[11:10] ---**
This is great. And after that...
**[11:12] ---**
A medley? Smart.
**[11:15] ---**
Ah! This is just what I wanted to do.
**[11:18] ---**
In the "Let's Dance" segment,
we get to dance with the ARS, right?
**[11:22] ---**
Yes.
**[11:23] ---**
If you upload some simple
choreography to the internet in advance,
**[11:27] ---**
I'm sure everyone will learn the moves.
**[11:30] ---**
Why would we bother doing that?
**[11:33] ---**
Just teach 'em from the stage.
**[11:36] ---**
He's good at teaching dance moves.
**[11:39] ---**
I want to do that!
**[11:40] ---**
See? This is it.
**[11:42] ---**
This?
**[11:42] ---**
You all have strong personalities,
so you fight all the time.
**[11:45] ---**
But you respect each other's individuality.
**[11:49] ---**
And you're always thinking hard about
what the ARS will enjoy the most.
**[11:56] ---**
Oh, yeah. I put together a rough music
track for the "Let's Dance" segment.
**[12:11] ---**
León, you need to make it simpler
or they won't be able to do it.
**[12:16] ---**
Okay...
**[12:18] ---**
How about this?
**[12:24] ---**
Join in!
**[12:26] ---**
What? Us, too?
**[12:29] ---**
Seriously?
**[12:32] ---**
Spin, spin, spin, spin!
**[12:35] ---**
And raise you hand!
**[12:36] ---**
Up! Up!
**[12:38] ---**
Down! Down!
**[12:39] ---**
And again!
**[12:40] ---**
Up! Up!
**[12:41] ---**
Down!
**[12:41] ---**
Down. Down.
**[12:42] ---**
And now, we scoot! Scoot! Scoot!
**[12:47] ---**
Scoot! Lookin' good!
**[12:50] ---**
Now to the side!
**[12:51] ---**
Side! Side!
**[12:54] ---**
And again.
**[12:55] ---**
Side! Side!
**[12:58] ---**
Lookin' good. Spin-spin!
**[12:59] ---**
Spin! Spin! Spin! Spin!
**[13:01] ---**
Looking good, Matsumoto-kun!
**[13:03] ---**
My first dance routine!
**[13:05] ---**
Join in too, Rage-kun!
**[13:07] ---**
Do it!
**[13:08] ---**
Nope.
**[13:09] ---**
Come on! It's fun!
**[13:12] ---**
Get your ass over here.
**[13:13] ---**
Rage-kun!
**[13:14] ---**
Scoot! Scoot!
**[13:15] ---**
This is fun!
**[13:19] ---**
Come on, damn it.
**[13:20] ---**
Rage-kun!
**[13:58] ---**
This is where we first met, isn't it?
**[14:03] ---**
It feels like a lifetime ago.
**[14:06] ---**
You said it.
**[14:15] ---**
What are you so excited about?
**[14:17] ---**
Take a look. Feast your
eyes on all those stars.
**[14:29] ---**
I hope we can make our
next concert the best yet.
**[14:32] ---**
We don't hope. We do. Right?
**[14:37] ---**
We all dance and sing together,
**[14:39] ---**
and all the people
watching us are dancing, too.
**[14:42] ---**
That'd be the best place
in the world for me.
**[14:48] ---**
The best place, huh?
**[14:50] ---**
Huh? Is that weird?
**[14:53] ---**
Not really.
**[14:54] ---**
I'll make it the best concert in the world.
**[14:57] ---**
The best place in the world. "Paradise," huh?
**[15:02] ---**
Shinji, was that supposed to be clever?
**[15:04] ---**
It was clever.
**[15:06] ---**
Try those moves with Rage-kun.
**[15:09] ---**
No way in hell.
**[15:27] ---**
Okay, everybody! Let's raise the roof!
**[15:30] ---**
I missed you all!
**[15:34] ---**
Supporters, let's have some fun today.
**[15:39] ---**
KICK A'LIVE starts now!
**[15:55] ---**
Get started, get into it!
**[15:57] ---**
Uncontrol, flyin' the sky.
**[15:59] ---**
Proving there are no limits, all taker.
**[16:03] ---**
Let everything loose!
**[16:05] ---**
Jump over it like a panther!
**[16:07] ---**
The dart I threw with my eyes closed
**[16:09] ---**
was a 100% bull shot!
**[16:11] ---**
A future you fully understand is boring.
**[16:16] ---**
We're surpassing your imagination!
**[16:19] ---**
For you, I'll use magic tonight!
**[16:27] ---**
We've gotta make it in time!
**[16:29] ---**
Hurry up! We won't make it!
**[16:31] ---**
Once the gate opens, it's show time!
**[16:34] ---**
Wake up! Turn up beats!
**[16:36] ---**
Dancing to the tune!
**[16:38] ---**
We can't stop!

Let's get rocking!
**[17:20] ---**
Gettin' close to you!
**[17:22] ---**
3, 2, 1, shall we dance?
**[17:25] ---**
The air in the concert hall changes!
**[17:27] ---**
So please don't look away!
**[17:29] ---**
We're drivin' the clock on the wall crazy
**[17:31] ---**
It's going on, endless forever!
**[17:33] ---**
Amazing eyes like a black hole!
**[17:38] ---**
Sucking me in!
**[17:41] ---**
A mission for the future
that we haven't finished yet!
**[17:49] ---**
We've gotta make it in time!
**[17:51] ---**

All right! Get on!
**[18:26] ---**
It's paradise!
**[18:29] ---**
We're gonna dance all night!
**[18:33] ---**
Say goodbye to ordinary days!
**[18:35] ---**
We fly together!
**[18:37] ---**
Louder!
**[18:37] ---**
Louder!
**[18:38] ---**
Louder!
