    Artists Republic Performers.
[00:07] ---
    ARP for short.
[00:10] ---
    A group composed of some
    of Japan's finest singers and dancers,
[00:16] ---
    aiming to make it big on a global level.
SIGN    Music can change the world.
SIGN    What about you, Shinji?
[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.
[04:10] Background
    Shinji Kanou-kun, please report
    to the director's office.
[04:16] Background
    Shinji Kanou-kun, please report
    to the director's office.
[04:27] ---
    What is it?
[04:31] ---
    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.

[09:39] ---
    Mom!
    Bro's acting weird!
[09:51] ---
    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!
