**[00:16] ---**
Doloris.
**[00:20] ---**
Doloris.
**[00:21] ---**
Now, it's the night of the awakening.
**[00:24] ---**
Shall I wake her up?
**[00:26] ---**
If you force her to wake up,
you might break her soul.
**[00:29] ---**
Onee-sama.
**[00:30] ---**
It's all right. The moonlight
will wake her up.
**[00:35] ---**
The moon swallowed by
shadows comes back to life,
**[00:39] ---**
and the poor doll once again
takes on a temporal life.
**[01:03] ---**
Now, let's begin... tonight's masquerade!
**[04:15] ---**
What you are about to see is
**[04:19] ---**
her story, with a secret.
**[04:27] ---**
The interview starts in five minutes.
**[04:29] ---**
Oh no, I have to fix my makeup!
**[04:32] ---**
Your mask will cover it, though.
**[04:33] ---**
I don't want to cut corners
because you can't see it!
**[04:36] ---**
Umiko, you wouldn't want to
see a lazy Nyamuchi, right?
**[04:40] ---**
Mutsumi, it's time for the interview.
**[04:43] ---**
We'll go first.
**[04:45] ---**
Hang on! This makeup, for real!
**[04:48] ---**
Our mission is to make our guests dream.
**[04:53] ---**
We would be delighted if
you also immerse yourself
**[04:57] ---**
in the world of Ave Mujica
at Budokan next time.
**[04:59] ---**
Budokan is amazing!
**[05:02] ---**
It hasn't been long since our debut.
**[05:03] ---**
Emphasize that it's the fastest ever!
**[05:07] ---**
O-Okay. How about you, Mortis-san?
**[05:13] ---**
I...
**[05:17] ---**
As you can see, Mortis is a little shy.
**[05:21] ---**
Mortis, let's end with a gratitude.
**[05:23] ---**
Thank you for your time.
**[05:26] ---**
Have a good evening.
**[05:27] ---**
Send the stills as soon as they're out!
**[05:31] ---**
For now, a—
**[05:33] ---**
Don't take it off until you
are back in the dressing room.
**[05:36] ---**
You never know who is watching.
**[05:38] ---**
Huh? Am I getting exposed?
**[05:40] ---**
Amoris is actually Nyam—
**[05:42] ---**
Amoris.
**[05:45] ---**
So, do you mean that...
**[05:47] ---**
we are going to keep these masks on forever?
**[05:50] ---**
It's messing with our faces and numbers.
**[05:55] ---**
Uika from sumimi.
**[05:57] ---**
Daughter of the great comedian Wakaba and
the star actress Minami Mori.
**[06:01] ---**
We could simply take the masks off
to make the whole world notice us.
**[06:06] ---**
Ave Mujica does not undersell.
**[06:08] ---**
First, we need to build a track record,
then work on our music—
**[06:11] ---**
I liked it yesterday
**[06:12] ---**
but got bored of it today.
**[06:15] ---**
The world is cruel, and they might get bored
if you keep messing around.
**[06:21] ---**
I am not going to let this
band be just a passing fad.
**[06:26] ---**
I told you.
**[06:27] ---**
Give me the rest of your life.
**[06:34] ---**
We will take the mask off at the best stage
and at the best moment.
**[06:41] ---**
I was touched.
**[06:44] ---**
I realized how much you
care about Ave Mujica.
**[06:48] ---**
That's right.
**[06:50] ---**
I am entrusted with your lives.
**[06:52] ---**
I can't believe how popular
we've become upon debut.
**[06:55] ---**
Saki-chan really is amazing!
**[06:57] ---**
It's all thanks to you, Uika.
**[06:59] ---**
I couldn't have asked for a better
frontwoman for Ave Mujica.
**[07:04] ---**
What, a band?
**[07:06] ---**
Yes. We will be professional as well.
**[07:11] ---**
All right. I'm in.
**[07:13] ---**
Really? I haven't even—
**[07:16] ---**
It's a request from you, Saki-chan.
**[07:20] ---**
Was it okay?
**[07:21] ---**
You didn't even ask anything.
**[07:23] ---**
Yup!
**[07:25] ---**
Uika, I'm sure you're going to buy those
power stones if you're asked.
**[07:29] ---**
That was mean.
**[07:31] ---**
Even under the same agency,
**[07:32] ---**
it must be tough to work
as sumimi simultaneously.
**[07:35] ---**
I will not make it a burden for you.
**[07:37] ---**
It's not a burden, not at all.
**[07:38] ---**
It's actually quite refreshing.
**[07:47] ---**
My dream of being with you forever came true.
**[07:54] ---**
Uika...
**[07:59] ---**
Is it for work?
**[08:00] ---**
Yes, Uika. See you later.
**[08:04] ---**
This is Togawa.
**[08:08] ---**
Here's the paper.
**[08:10] ---**
He was passed out drunk in an alley again.
**[08:13] ---**
I apologize for the repeated inconvenience.
**[08:23] ---**
Father.
**[08:26] ---**
You're better off without me.
**[08:31] ---**
Stop talking nonsense.
**[08:33] ---**
Come on, hold tight! We're going home.
**[08:52] ---**
Four more songs before Budokan.
**[08:54] ---**
I need to write at least two songs by this weekend
to give Uika time to write lyrics.
**[09:10] ---**
You're really good!
**[09:12] ---**
I practiced it a lot because
it's your favorite song!
**[09:15] ---**
I'll invite Mutsumi next time—
**[09:18] ---**
What is it?
**[09:19] ---**
Nothing!
**[09:20] ---**
It's a secret until your birthday!
**[09:24] ---**
Mizuho, Sakiko. I'm home!
**[09:26] ---**
Father!
**[09:28] ---**
Welcome home!
**[09:29] ---**
How was work?
**[09:31] ---**
Father yelled at me again today.
**[09:34] ---**
He said he can't leave his precious daughter with me,
let alone the company.
**[09:38] ---**
He is strict with you because
he wants to bring you up.
**[09:41] ---**
Don't worry. Your integrity is a virtue.
**[09:47] ---**
Mizuho-chan was way too young...
**[09:51] ---**
She had held long enough...
**[10:11] ---**
Mother...
**[10:18] ---**
Sakiko.
**[10:20] ---**
I'll do my best.
**[10:25] ---**
Alright! It's the music
festival in the afternoon.
**[10:28] ---**
Let's go to the auditorium.
**[10:37] ---**
Saki.
**[10:39] ---**
Let's go.
**[10:42] ---**
Okay.
**[10:50] ---**
Thank you! We are Morfonica!
**[10:54] ---**
Morfonica?
**[10:55] ---**
They are seniors who formed a band
for the first time in Tsukinomori.
**[11:00] ---**
Band...
**[11:02] ---**
Mutsumi! We should start a band too!
**[11:05] ---**
A band!
**[11:09] ---**
Soyo Nagasaki-san.
**[11:10] ---**
I'm glad she's a pleasant person.
**[11:13] ---**
And then—
**[11:19] ---**
No, don't!
**[11:22] ---**
I'm sorry for pushing
you, but you mustn't die!
**[11:27] ---**
Starting now, we are a band.
**[11:29] ---**
We'll play music together and
our destinies will become one!
**[11:34] ---**
This is the first time I've written lyrics.
**[11:37] ---**
What were you writing up to now?
**[11:39] ---**
I understand.
**[11:41] ---**
This is...
**[11:43] ---**
Haruhikage.
**[11:45] ---**
This is our song, isn't it?
**[12:03] ---**
Father?
**[12:04] ---**
Doesn't know anything!
**[12:06] ---**
I'm blocking them.
**[12:07] ---**
Taki-chan, it's better to mute than to block.
**[12:10] ---**
But pretty much everyone
else is complimenting you!
**[12:17] ---**
Saki-chan?
**[12:23] ---**
Grandfather!
**[12:25] ---**
Where is my father? You know it, right?
**[12:28] ---**
That one is no longer with Togawa.
**[12:31] ---**
He took responsibility
for the fraud and quit.
**[12:34] ---**
Fraud?
**[12:35] ---**
It's a loss of 16.8 billion yen.
**[12:39] ---**
No way...!
**[12:40] ---**
It was bad luck.
**[12:42] ---**
Luck?
**[12:44] ---**
Forget your father and become my daughter.
**[12:48] ---**
You're Mizuho's momento.
**[12:50] ---**
I don't want you to have a hard time.
**[12:54] ---**
Sakiko!
**[12:56] ---**
How is a sheltered person
like you going to survive?
**[13:00] ---**
My mother's doll...
**[13:01] ---**
I need to take this.
**[13:07] ---**
Goodbye.
**[13:15] ---**
Is it... here?
**[13:21] ---**
Father?
**[13:29] ---**
Father!
**[13:30] ---**
Wake up, father!
**[13:51] ---**
Junior high?
**[13:54] ---**
Yes.
**[13:55] ---**
We can't hire junior high school students.
**[13:57] ---**
No one would hire you, right?
**[13:59] ---**
Yes.
**[14:01] ---**
I only deliver newspapers.
**[14:04] ---**
What about your parents?
**[14:06] ---**
That's...
**[14:08] ---**
We can't have someone with problems.
**[14:14] ---**
It's only a drop in the bucket.
**[14:16] ---**
Then...
**[14:20] ---**
Are you really going to quit?
**[14:22] ---**
Mutsumi, did you know?
**[14:23] ---**
The tuition at Tsukinomori is very expensive.
**[14:27] ---**
What about CRYCHIC?
**[14:31] ---**
I'll find time for it somehow.
**[14:33] ---**
Don't tell anyone yet.
**[14:37] ---**
I can still make it in time!
**[14:41] ---**
Soyo!
**[14:50] ---**
Yes.
**[14:58] ---**
Why do you need alcohol...?
**[15:00] ---**
Sakiko.
**[15:01] ---**
I'll do my best.
**[15:05] ---**
Father...!
**[15:30] ---**
I am quitting CRYCHIC.
**[15:38] ---**
Our last live show was fun, wasn't it?
**[15:40] ---**
You said you wanted to
do it again, didn't you?
**[15:46] ---**
Tomori was waiting for you!
**[15:51] ---**
Are you really quitting?
**[16:07] ---**
Are you collecting sticky notes?
**[16:09] ---**
I can list the words with these.
**[16:13] ---**
I have a few at home that I
don't use. Do you want them?
**[16:18] ---**
I got my tickets! It's a miracle!
**[16:22] ---**
What is it?
**[16:22] ---**
Tickets for Ave Mujica Budokan Masquerade!
**[16:26] ---**
It seemed impossible to get a ticket because
they're too popular.
**[16:29] ---**
Wow, good for you.
**[16:31] ---**
I'm sure Amoris is Nyamuchi.
**[16:33] ---**
Do you mean the Nyamuchi I know?
**[16:35] ---**
It's Nyamuchi's voice, and she also hinted
about it in her recent video.
**[16:39] ---**
Did she?
**[16:40] ---**
You know it when you see it.
**[16:42] ---**
Hey Tomorin, let's go together!
**[16:44] ---**
I have two tickets for Ave Mujica Masquerade!
**[16:46] ---**
Tomori-chan, aren't you
afraid of crowded places?
**[16:51] ---**
Someday, MyGO!!!!! might
perform in a bigger place!
**[16:53] ---**
It's better to get used to it now.
**[16:55] ---**
You're in my way.
**[16:57] ---**
You are talking too loud.
**[16:59] ---**
Are you going, Rikki?
**[17:01] ---**
T-Thanks.
**[17:02] ---**
I'm not interested.
**[17:02] ---**
But it's Ave Mujica.
**[17:04] ---**
So?
**[17:04] ---**
They are the hottest band right now.
**[17:07] ---**
See?
**[17:08] ---**
If she still smells of humanity,
there will be no one to receive her.
**[17:11] ---**
Oh dear, but that puts us in a bind!
**[17:13] ---**
A play?
**[17:14] ---**
They perform a skit between live shows.
**[17:16] ---**
It's a world like this.
**[17:18] ---**
This is not a band.
**[17:20] ---**
It is a band.
**[17:23] ---**
What should I do with one?
**[17:27] ---**
What is it?
**[17:32] ---**
I'm heading out.
**[17:35] ---**
Father?
**[17:36] ---**
You're going to Budokan.
**[17:39] ---**
Yes, I see that you knew.
**[17:42] ---**
You're amazing, Sakiko.
**[17:44] ---**
You're moving forward on your own.
**[17:47] ---**
Father?
**[17:49] ---**
I can't hang on anymore.
**[17:53] ---**
My mother will be sad if she sees you now.
**[17:57] ---**
She told you. Your virtue is—
**[18:00] ---**
Shut up!
**[18:06] ---**
Leave...
**[18:07] ---**
Leave me alone already.
**[18:09] ---**
When I see that you are
such a fine daughter...
**[18:13] ---**
I feel miserable.
**[18:15] ---**
I beg you...
**[18:17] ---**
Just get out of my sight...!
**[18:25] ---**
Saki.
**[18:26] ---**
Let's get going!
**[18:28] ---**
What a rotten father...!
**[18:30] ---**
Does he understand how I've been feeling?
**[18:32] ---**
Saki.
**[18:33] ---**
I will never go back there.
**[18:36] ---**
I can't go back.
**[18:37] ---**
Saki.
**[18:39] ---**
Are you okay with Budokan?
**[18:43] ---**
Of course, it's going to be okay.
**[18:47] ---**
What do you think I've worked so hard for?
**[18:51] ---**
Cut off the unfulfilled memories
and forget all about it.
**[18:55] ---**
All I have left is...
**[18:58] ---**
Ave Mujica only.
**[19:07] ---**
Amoris, wear your mask.
**[19:09] ---**
Okay.
**[19:15] ---**
Doloris.
**[19:17] ---**
I do not fear sorrow.
**[19:22] ---**
Take a good look at this perfect smile.
**[19:25] ---**
If you don't want to smile, you can cry.
**[19:28] ---**
I can make any face I want.
**[19:33] ---**
What a boring script.
**[19:35] ---**
I'm heading out.
**[19:41] ---**
Amoris.
**[19:43] ---**
I do not fear love.
**[19:50] ---**
Oblivionis.
**[19:52] ---**
I do not fear forgetting.
**[19:56] ---**
Now, it's time for our guests to come in.
**[20:01] ---**
Who's coming?
**[20:02] ---**
Doloris, look ahead.
**[20:04] ---**
Friends.
**[20:05] ---**
Mortis, your hair is a mess.
**[20:08] ---**
They are the new owners.
**[20:11] ---**
Timoris, keep your shoulders up.
**[20:14] ---**
Today is the day they will find me.
**[20:17] ---**
Amoris.
**[20:18] ---**
You need a perfect grooming
and a perfect smile.
**[20:22] ---**
You must show the best of
yourself to the guests.
**[20:26] ---**
Okay.
**[20:30] ---**
Thank you for your patience.
**[20:33] ---**
Welcome to Ave Mujica's masquerade.
**[20:36] ---**
We have prepared beautiful dolls for
our guests this evening!
**[20:42] ---**
Timoris the Intelligent.
**[20:44] ---**
Amoris the Merciful.
**[20:46] ---**
Doloris the Kindhearted.
**[20:48] ---**
Mortis the Obedient.
**[20:50] ---**
And I am...
**[20:52] ---**
Oblivionis the Noble.
**[20:55] ---**
Take a good look at this perfect smile.
**[20:58] ---**
Perfect?
**[21:03] ---**
No one wants to see such a forced smile!
**[21:08] ---**
You need a sincere smile.
**[21:11] ---**
Like this!
**[21:15] ---**
Nyamuchi!
**[21:16] ---**
How?
**[21:16] ---**
I told you! She is Nyamuchi.
**[21:22] ---**
What have you done...
**[21:23] ---**
I can't hear you.
**[21:25] ---**
Hey, Mortis.
**[21:27] ---**
What does your real face look like?
**[21:32] ---**
No way!
**[21:34] ---**
She's the daughter of Wakaba and Minami Mori!
**[21:38] ---**
What a crumpled face!
**[21:40] ---**
What is your plan?
**[21:43] ---**
What's your face?
**[21:46] ---**
Umiri from Disruption?
**[21:48] ---**
What a beautiful face. That's boring.
**[21:53] ---**
You've actually done it.
**[21:55] ---**
Saki-chan.
**[21:57] ---**
I can't stop this. I have to step back—
**[21:59] ---**
Oblivionis, look ahead.
**[22:02] ---**
Look, your hair is a mess.
**[22:05] ---**
You need to keep your shoulders up, right?
**[22:11] ---**
You need a perfect grooming
and a perfect smile.
**[22:17] ---**
You must show the best of
yourself to the guests.
**[22:22] ---**
Right?
**[22:34] ---**
What?
**[22:35] ---**
Soyorin.
**[22:41] ---**
What a nice face.
**[22:43] ---**
How about you?
**[22:57] ---**
It's Uika-chan!
**[22:58] ---**
How?
**[22:59] ---**
What about sumimi?
**[23:00] ---**
Ave Mujica is insane!
**[23:06] ---**
Her secret is revealed under the moon,
**[23:10] ---**
and the dolls regain their human form.
**[23:14] ---**
Is that a bliss or a doom?
**[23:18] ---**
The wheel of fate
**[23:22] ---**
will never stop.
