[18:34] calc
    B-But why?
[18:36] calc
    I can make you the top member
    of Appliyama 470!
[18:42] eri
    I don't want it.
[18:44] eri
    Because I'm not that good yet.
[18:48] eri
    I've stood on the same
    stage as them, so I know.
[18:52] eri
    It hurts,
[18:53] eri
    but I'm not in Izumi-san
    and the others' league yet.
[18:58] eri
    But...
[18:59] ---
    I'm going to surpass them some day!
[19:02] eri
    To give her the biggest smile of all!
[19:06] eri
    So...
[19:07] eri
    Making me number one by cheating...
[19:10] eri
    is something my idol
    spirit will not forgive!
[19:15] calc
    You're trampling on my feelings?!
[19:19] doka
    You're the one trampling
    on Eri-chan's feelings!
[19:22] doka
    You just want to make
    Eri-chan number one
[19:25] ---
    by changing the numbers yourself!
[19:27] doka
    You're just doing it to please yourself!
[19:30] calc
    Please myself?!
[19:33] calc
    That annoys me 400%!
[19:38] calc
    Fine, then!
[19:39] calc
    I'll send you straight
     to last place then, Eri-sama!
[19:43] doka
    No, you won't!

    Dokamon's power is 900!
[19:53] ---
    Divide by 5!
[19:54] ---
    Multiply by 0.001!
[19:56] ---
    Equals...

    Now, your power is
[20:03] ---
    one five-thousandth what it was!
[20:09] calc
    H-How?
[20:11] ---
    Your power should be gone!

    You even fell out of the top ten, huh?
[21:18] eri
    That's fine.

    That's where I deserve to be for now.
