**[00:30] ---**
Hey, hey, hey, sometimes
you gotta start a movement
**[00:36] ---**
Always meeting everyone's
expectations for a wonderful, fun time
**[00:39] ---**
Just gotta stop doing it
**[00:42] ---**
If you don't do something yourself,
nothing's going to happen tonight
**[00:47] ---**
Shout out and break out of your shell!
**[00:53] ---**
Wow wow war wow war tonight
**[00:59] ---**
Wow wow war wow war forever
**[01:04] ---**
Wow wow war wow war tonight
**[01:10] ---**
Wow wow war wow war forever
**[02:46] ---**
"Concert Hall 6"
**[03:26] ---**
Yay!
**[03:28] ---**
It's great that they were fired up,
but it's so hot on stage!
**[03:32] ---**
So, I've been meaning to ask,
but what's that on your head?
**[03:38] ---**
Nyochio.
**[03:56] ---**
What? That's it?!
**[03:59] ---**
So her name's Nyochio-chan?
**[04:01] ---**
Nice to meet you, Nyochio-chan!
**[04:31] ---**
"Cafe Vinyl"
**[04:34] ---**
Yeah, looks like they loved
yesterday's performance.
**[04:38] ---**
Obviously, they would.
I was just that good of a VJ.
**[04:42] ---**
I know, right? I know, right?!
**[04:43] ---**
The visuals you made were so awesome!
**[04:46] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[04:48] ---**
Thanks.
**[04:50] ---**
I'm so glad we could
do it with you, Muni-chan!
**[04:53] ---**
People are definitely spreading the word.
**[04:56] ---**
At this rate, we might get on
the Sunset Stage at the school festival!
**[05:01] ---**
Sunset Stage?
**[05:04] ---**
What's that?
**[05:05] ---**
It's a performance contest
at the school festival.
**[05:08] ---**
Only the top eight units
in the school get to compete.
**[05:13] ---**
And we're gonna be in it?
**[05:16] ---**
Maybe. We might.
**[05:19] ---**
To get in, we need
to keep building our popularity.
**[05:24] ---**
Should we enter another Remix Contest?
**[05:28] ---**
The next Remicon is still a ways off.
**[05:31] ---**
Then why not enter this?
**[05:35] ---**
"Photon Maiden Song Audition"
**[05:40] ---**
We are seeking new talent.
**[05:44] ---**
The only requirement is an original song
reflecting Photon Maiden's image.
**[05:50] ---**
The winning entry will become
Photon Maiden's next song.
**[05:55] ---**
This is Photon Maiden's thing.
**[05:57] ---**
You know them, Maho-chan?
**[06:00] ---**
A major record label held
an audition and put together this unit.
**[06:04] ---**
They debuted just recently, but everyone's
calling them the new hotness.
**[06:10] ---**
Then it's perfect to make us hotness too!
**[06:13] ---**
When we win, we'll get
super popular for sure!
**[06:17] ---**
When we win?
This contest is on a whole other level.
**[06:24] ---**
We'd need to create an original song
reflecting Photon Maiden's image.
**[06:28] ---**
The pros are probably
gonna enter this one too.
**[06:32] ---**
Maho.
**[06:32] ---**
Huh?
**[06:33] ---**
I know you can do it.
**[06:36] ---**
Wait, it's all on me?!
**[06:38] ---**
No, it's not! I'll help you too!
**[06:41] ---**
What?! Hold on, I never said I'd do it!
**[06:44] ---**
Let's do it, Maho-chan!
**[06:46] ---**
Making a song together's gonna be fun!
**[06:49] ---**
Well, I can make beats, but melodies...
**[06:54] ---**
It'd be nice to have someone who
plays guitar or keyboard to help.
**[06:59] ---**
Keyboard?
**[07:01] ---**
Like the piano.
**[07:02] ---**
Got it!
**[07:03] ---**
Then I'll learn the piano!
**[07:05] ---**
Huh?!
**[07:14] ---**
Fa, so, so, so.
**[07:19] ---**
So, mi, mi, mi.
**[07:23] ---**
Fa, re, re, re.
**[07:28] ---**
Do, mi, so-
**[07:34] ---**
So, so.
**[07:36] ---**
Mi, mi, mi.
**[07:42] ---**
Um...
**[07:43] ---**
Huh?
**[08:26] ---**
You're good at the piano!
**[08:28] ---**
I've been playing it since I was little.
**[08:31] ---**
Hey, hey! Can you teach me how to play?
**[08:33] ---**
Huh?
**[08:34] ---**
Can you? Please?
**[08:36] ---**
Oh...
**[08:58] ---**
Thanks for teaching me how to play the piano!
**[09:02] ---**
This is thanks for today!
**[09:21] ---**
*When I first started learning piano,
I was just like her.*
**[09:33] ---**
Good! Very good, Rei!
**[09:36] ---**
Togetsu-san, you have a talent for the piano!
**[09:39] ---**
What's wrong, Rei?
**[09:40] ---**
You can do better than that.
**[09:42] ---**
You can surely become a world-class pianist.
**[09:46] ---**
No, I will make you one!
**[09:48] ---**
You will place in the next
competition at any cost.
**[09:51] ---**
Do you understand?
**[09:52] ---**
Hey, Rei, do you actually enjoy piano?
**[09:56] ---**
Rei, Mom just wants what's best for you.
**[10:55] ---**
That's great, Rinku!
**[10:58] ---**
*This is gonna take a while.*
**[11:02] ---**
Oh! Master!
**[11:04] ---**
Oh, Aimoto-san.
**[11:06] ---**
Who's that?
**[11:07] ---**
This is Master Rei-chan!
**[11:09] ---**
Master Rei-chan is really good at piano!
**[11:12] ---**
Aimoto-san, "Master" is a bit...
**[11:15] ---**
Huh?
**[11:15] ---**
Then can I call you Rei-chan?
**[11:17] ---**
Y-Yes.
**[11:19] ---**
Uh... Rinku, did you get her
to teach you piano?
**[11:24] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:25] ---**
Wouldn't it be faster if she just helped
us instead of teaching you piano?
**[11:31] ---**
Oh!
**[11:39] ---**
Um, I understand the situation,
but I can't help with writing a song.
**[11:44] ---**
I never learned how to compose music.
**[11:48] ---**
Oh, no, we're not asking for a whole song.
**[11:51] ---**
Try playing something that fits this beat.
**[12:03] ---**
Ooh!
**[12:09] ---**
That was great!
**[12:11] ---**
Yeah! It was a really pretty melody!
**[12:13] ---**
Um, that was Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 23.
**[12:20] ---**
Uh... Basically, something like that's fine,
**[12:23] ---**
but you'd come up with a phrase
that fits the beat yourself.
**[12:27] ---**
Would you mind trying?
**[12:35] ---**
I don't know how good it would be, but I can.
**[12:39] ---**
So you'll do it?!
**[12:40] ---**
Y-Yes.
**[12:42] ---**
Happy Around!
**[13:22] ---**
Um... How were they?
**[13:25] ---**
I made three of them to see if any are good.
**[13:30] ---**
None of them really do it for me.
**[13:33] ---**
Really?
**[13:35] ---**
I think the last one was pretty good.
**[13:37] ---**
Yeah, I thought it wasn't bad.
**[13:40] ---**
But I think something
more emotional would be better.
**[13:44] ---**
Emotional?
**[13:46] ---**
I think something more hopping
would get me dancing!
**[13:50] ---**
I want flashy.
**[13:55] ---**
*Flashy, and hopping, but emotional...*
**[14:17] ---**
Yeah. Let's go with this.
**[14:20] ---**
You two good with it too?
**[14:21] ---**
Yeah!
**[14:21] ---**
I think-
**[14:22] ---**
Do you think you could play it one more time?
**[14:24] ---**
Y-Yes.
**[14:25] ---**
You recorded this one with your phone mic?
**[14:28] ---**
Oh, yes. On the piano in the music room.
**[14:31] ---**
Hm... Recording a real piano?
**[14:35] ---**
Maybe play it again on a keyboard first?
**[14:37] ---**
Or should I flesh out the beat more first?
**[14:42] ---**
And then...
**[14:43] ---**
Um... Did she actually like it?
**[14:45] ---**
I think she did.
**[14:47] ---**
Looks like she's already planning around it.
**[14:49] ---**
And...
**[14:51] ---**
I-I kind of liked it too.
**[15:09] ---**
I hope it turns into a lovely song.
**[15:33] ---**
What do you think?
**[15:35] ---**
I think it's good.
**[15:36] ---**
It's awesome! Totally awesome!
**[15:38] ---**
What about you?
**[15:39] ---**
Yes. I think it was good too.
**[15:43] ---**
Then I'll enter with this.
**[15:45] ---**
This'll win us the prize for sure.
**[15:47] ---**
Really?!
**[15:48] ---**
You know it.
**[15:50] ---**
Happy-
**[15:51] ---**
It's too early for that.
**[15:53] ---**
Hold it for when we actually win it.
**[15:56] ---**
Huh...
**[15:58] ---**
Hm...
**[15:59] ---**
Then...
**[16:01] ---**
Happy Ara!
**[16:02] ---**
What's that?
**[16:03] ---**
A short version of "Happy Around!"
**[16:06] ---**
S-So like a radio edit?
**[16:10] ---**
"Cafe Vinyl"
**[16:22] ---**
Hey, is it here yet?
**[16:23] ---**
They announce it today, right?
**[16:26] ---**
They should be sending e-mails
to entrants about now...
**[16:30] ---**
This is somewhat nerve-racking.
**[16:33] ---**
We know that our song is going to win.
**[16:36] ---**
Just wait for the results.
No need to be antsy.
**[16:40] ---**
You know your hands are shaking, right?
**[16:44] ---**
Th-This is a symptom of my tendonitis
because art gods get tendonitis!
**[16:49] ---**
I'm not nervous or anything!
**[16:51] ---**
Hey, is it here yet?
**[16:53] ---**
Maho-chan!
**[16:55] ---**
I'm not sending it, you know.
**[17:29] ---**
Oh, barkeep...
**[17:30] ---**
They don't need background music!
**[17:32] ---**
Right!
**[17:35] ---**
Avocado.
**[17:36] ---**
Omelet.
**[17:37] ---**
Tapioca.
**[17:38] ---**
Didn't that end with an "e"?
**[17:38] ---**
*It's my fault.*
**[17:39] ---**
It's fine.
**[17:40] ---**
What?
**[17:41] ---**
*If only I were better...*
**[17:42] ---**
Artichoke.
**[17:43] ---**
E... E... Eggplant!
**[17:45] ---**
Tomato.
**[17:46] ---**
Orangelo.
**[17:47] ---**
Oroblanco.
**[17:48] ---**
Oroblanco? What's that?
**[17:59] ---**
Yeah, sounds good! Let's do it!
**[18:02] ---**
Oh!
**[18:03] ---**
We've been waiting for you, Rei-chan!
**[18:04] ---**
We were just talking about doing
that song at our next performance!
**[18:09] ---**
That song? The one that lost?
**[18:12] ---**
Yeah. We made it together,
so it'll be our new song instead!
**[18:17] ---**
But we'll need to write lyrics first,
**[18:20] ---**
and we need to rearrange it for our image.
**[18:24] ---**
You're right. It isn't something
Rinku would sing to right now.
**[18:28] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:29] ---**
Can you help us with the arrangement?
**[18:32] ---**
Y-Yes, if you don't mind me.
**[18:35] ---**
All right! We're doing our first original
song at our next performance!
**[18:40] ---**
Yeah!
**[18:41] ---**
Yeah?
**[18:45] ---**
Oh? They're going to put on
an original song at their next performance.
**[18:50] ---**
You mean the unit
you got interested in lately?
**[18:54] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:55] ---**
I checked out their last performance,
and it was pretty fun. I liked it.
**[18:59] ---**
Oh? Then should we check out their next one?
**[19:03] ---**
I'll pass.
**[19:04] ---**
Oh, Shinobu-chan, you're so cool!
**[19:07] ---**
No. I just don't want to waste time
on things I don't care about.
**[19:13] ---**
D-Do your best on stage.
**[19:16] ---**
Hey, what are you getting all nervous for?
**[19:19] ---**
I-I'm so sorry.
**[19:21] ---**
I just feel nervous.
**[19:23] ---**
Let's go get 'em.
**[19:25] ---**
Yeah.
**[19:28] ---**
We're gonna do that new song good!
**[21:05] ---**
They totally loved that new song!
**[21:07] ---**
Yeah!
**[21:08] ---**
Well, I did make
an entirely new visual for it.
**[21:11] ---**
That's what made it-
**[21:12] ---**
Everyone.
**[21:13] ---**
You were lovely on stage.
**[21:15] ---**
Huh? What're you crying for?
**[21:18] ---**
Hey, they did love the new song she wrote.
**[21:21] ---**
Who wouldn't get a little teary-eyed?
**[21:24] ---**
What?! Hey, not you too!
**[21:26] ---**
I don't get why, but I'm crying too!
**[21:31] ---**
Oh, what is with you?!
**[21:34] ---**
Come on, let's do it!
**[21:37] ---**
Come on! Don't just stand there!
**[21:38] ---**
You're doing it too!
**[21:41] ---**
Oh.
**[21:42] ---**
Yes.
**[21:43] ---**
Now let's do it!
**[21:44] ---**
-Yay!
**[21:45] ---**
-Yay?
**[23:25] ---**
How much time and effort do you think
goes into the visual for one song?!
**[23:29] ---**
You make something original, create
all the resources, think of the situation,
**[23:33] ---**
and make a cute, Mu-nique, one-and-only-
**[23:35] ---**
Next time: One and Only!
**[23:37] ---**
What about me?!
