Watch this program in a bright room      and at a safe distance from your TV ♥ [01:40] S     We would never let you     leave looking so sad. [01:46] S     Why? Because... [01:47] S     We provide dreams to all of space [01:51] S     as the special unit of galactic idols. [01:54] S     That is why. [01:56] G     That's... [01:59] Shin     Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48?! [02:02] Shin     Why are they on Earth? [02:04] Bi     Guys, come to our meet-and-greet and wipe     this bitter taste out of your mouths. [02:10] Bi     Otherwise your Bitchie will     be so lonely, she'll cry. [02:14] G     I-I can't believe I get to     meet the universe's top idols! [02:18] G     Is this some dream or fantasy?! [02:20] G     I'm going first! [02:21] G     No, I am! [02:23] Gin     Wait, what? Giant Knobhead Bitches 48? [02:27] Shin     No way... They're here in Edo? [02:30] Shin     They are Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48. [02:33] Shin     On several planets, top idol groups     faced off in a public vote, [02:35] Shin     and only the centers whose     groups placed at the top— [02:38] Shin     in other words, only the top of the     top idols from across the galaxy— [02:42] Shin     formed this top idol group! [02:43] Gin     How many times are you gonna say "top"? [02:44] Shin     They're the biggest idols in the galaxy! [02:47] Shin     They traverse planets, nabbing     the top idol spot on each one, [02:50] Shin     then move on to their next target. [02:51] Shin     If that special unit of idols is here in     Edo and showed up in front of Otsu-chan, [02:57] Shin     that must mean their next target is... [03:00] Bi     Terakado Tsu. [03:01] Bi     We got a good look at how     Edo's top idol does sales. [03:05] Bi     I'm amazed you sit at the     top of the pile like that. [03:08] Bi     It seems Edo has the weakest idols     of all the planets we've been to. [03:15] Bi     Let us show you how real idols [03:19] Bi     do meet-and-greets. [03:21] Shin     A-Are those... [03:23] Bi     Line up and come in one by one, guys. [03:26] Bi     We want to spend quality     time with each of you. [03:30] Shin     Why have closed spaces if     they're only gonna shake hands? [03:33] Taka     Challenge accepted. I'll go first. [03:37] Shin     Taka-chin? [03:39] Taka     You ran your mouth at Otsu-chan. [03:41] Taka     If this meet-and-greet ain't up to     scratch, you'll be in real trouble. [03:45] Shin     Taka-chin! [03:46] Taka     Sorry, Shin-chan. [03:47] Taka     I honestly don't understand what you're     trying to do with Otsu-chan right now. [03:54] Taka     But I believe that you'll     protect her to the end. [04:01] Taka     I believe that she would     never lose to these hussies! [04:05] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:09] Taka     Huh? Seriously? [04:10] Taka     Is this how it works? [04:12] Gin     Uh, why is it shaking? [04:13] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:16] Gin     Huh? Was he in his undies just now? [04:17] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:18] Gin     I hear weird noises. What is that?     What's going on? [04:21] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:22] Gin     He was totally butt-naked!     What're they doing? [04:24] Gin     Are they really shaking hands? [04:26] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:28] Gin     Uh, hold up. What is this? [04:30] Gin     They're not shaking hands at all. They're     doing something totally different. [04:32] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:34] Gin     What is that? Something just came out. [04:35] Gin     What's going on in there?     What're you guys doing? [04:38] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:39] Gin     Now his whole body's covered in pixels!     What happened to him? [04:41] Gin     Taka-chin! [04:42] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:43] Gin     Taka-chin? [04:43] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:45] Gin     Taka-chin? [04:45] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:46] Gin     Taka-chin?! [04:47] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:51] Shin     Taka-chin! [04:52] Shin     Pull yourself together, Taka-chin! [04:54] Shin     What happened, Taka-chin?! [04:58] Taka     Once I get home, I'm gonna     burn all my porn mags. [05:02] Shin     What'd they do to you?! [05:03] Gin     What'd they do to him?     They clearly just did him! [05:06] Gin     They totally got down and dirty. [05:08] Gin     He looks like he released everything he had     pent up. He's basking in the afterglow. [05:11] Shin     Taka-chin, tell me what happened inside. [05:14] Taka     Everything turned white. [05:16] Gin     Crap! Now he's turned completely white! [05:19] G     Once I get home, I'll try being nicer to Mom. [05:21] G     I'll try to find something     good about Kamiji Yusuke. [05:24] Shin     Hey! People are getting enlightened     in the afterglow one after another! [05:27] Gin     Wait, are you kidding me? [05:28] Gin     Seriously? Is this for real? [05:29] Gin     What, do they shake something     other than hands on their planets? [05:33] Gin     Are you kidding me? Seriously?     Is this for real? [05:35] Shin     Calm down, Gin-san! [05:38] Bi     Our meet-and-greet made     everyone weak in the knees. [05:46] Bi     Terakado Tsu, we've rendered all     your fans completely spineless. [05:50] Bi     They're wrapped around our fingers. [05:54] Bi     This is what real idols are capable of. [05:57] Bi     What the greatest galactic     idol group is capable of. [06:00] Bi     What Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48 is capable of. [06:03] Gin     Uh, idols? You're practically     just pres! [06:06] Bi     What? How mean! [06:08] Bi     You know nothing about me! [06:11] Bi     You know nothing about     what we were doing inside! [06:16] Bi     If you suspect us that much,     why don't you try it yourself... [06:19] Bi     Our meet-and-greet. [06:21] Gin     I'll take the special course, please. [06:22] Bi     Meet-and-greet. [06:23] Gin     I can start a tab with you, right? [06:25] Shin     Like hell! [06:26] Tsu     No... My fans, who've been     behind me all this time... [06:26] Crowd     All hail Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48! [06:30] Tsu     The ones who've supported     me all this time... [06:33] Tsu     In one moment, they all just... [06:39] Tsu     No... [06:43] Tsu     This can't be. [06:46] Tsu     This can't be happening! [06:48] Shin     Otsu-chan! [06:48] Gin     H-Hey! How long are you     gonna sleep, you dumbass?! [06:51] Shin     Wait, Otsu-chan! [06:54] Gin     We still have a bunch of pillow     sales events lined up after this! [06:57] Gin     Hey! [07:00] Bi     She went down far easier than expected. [07:03] Crowd     All hail Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48! [07:03] Bi     But this isn't enough. [07:05] Bi     Getting these core idol fans on     our side doesn't mean a thing. [07:09] Bi     All of Edo must watch as Terakado Tsu     and Booger Diamonds 48 fall to pieces. [07:17] Bi     They need to know that we, Galaxy Kingdom     Bitches 48, are the greatest idols alive. [07:23] Bi     Showtime is only just beginning. [07:29] Shin     I see. [07:30] Shin     Otsu-chan's still holed up? [07:33] OMom     She seems to be taking it really hard. [07:36] Shin     Sorry. It's all our fault     for being so useless. [07:39] OMom     Oh, no. I made her form a unit to put     her under this exact kind of pressure. [07:45] OMom     But I can't believe they came     gunning for Otsu at the same time. [07:49] OMom     She's hit rock bottom, and     she may not climb back up. [07:53] Shin     Otsu-chan will definitely bounce back! [07:56] Shin     She'd never lose to those people! [07:57] Gin     Yeah. Right now, we don't     stand to make any mon— [08:00] Gin     I mean, make a decent impression,     so give us a chance to turn this around. [08:03] Kag     Otsu's not alone. [08:05] Kag     If she's hit rock bottom,     there's still something I, [08:08] Kag     along with Booger Diamonds 48,     can do to help her. [08:11] Kag     I want her to remember that. [08:15] OMom     There's nothing any of you can do. [08:18] OMom     I mean... SIGN    Terakado Tsu Cries Outside a Love Hotel!! SIGN    Producer Carries BDZ48 Member Home! [08:23] OMom     You're all down there with her. [08:36] R     There they are! [08:37] R     It's Booger Diamonds 48's     producer, Mr. Sakata! [08:41] R     What was Otsu-chan doing     in front of a love hotel? [08:44] R     Is it true that you're using     your position as producer [08:46] R     to screw around with your agency's idols? [08:49] Shin     You've got the wrong idea! [08:50] Shin     I was the one who was with     Otsu-chan! I'm her manager! [08:53] Shin     We were just talking about work— [08:55] R     So the producer and manager are both     screwing around with their agency's idols? [08:59] Shin     Did you listen to a word I said?! [09:00] R     Well? [09:01] Gin     You know they're gonna twist     your words, Shinpachi. [09:04] Gin     Just get through it by saying     "Whatever. I don't care." [09:06] Shin     They'll twist that even worse! [09:07] Gin     We've done nothing wrong.     No need to run or hide. [09:10] Kag     That's right. [09:12] Kag     Besides, Gin-chan and I have gone long     past "taking home." We live together. [09:17] R     What do you mean, you live together? [09:19] Kag     He keeps me at home without pay [09:20] Kag     and makes me do all kinds of stuff from     morning to night until I can't stand. [09:25] Kag     Nothing wrong with that. [09:27] Shin     Everything about that sounds wrong! [09:28] R     Sakata-san, are you a lolicon po? [09:31] Gin**     I'm not a po! The P stands for producer! [09:33] Gin**     I'm not a lolicon, either! [09:34] R     So you're a po P? [09:36] Gin**     Knock it off already, you rotten cue ball! [09:38] R     Did you hear that verbal abuse? [09:42] Tsu     I no longer have any fans cheering me on. [09:47] TV     Showbiz really is seedy, huh? [09:49] TV     Well, everyone in the entertainment     business is like this. [09:49] Tsu     I don't have anyone on my side. [09:53] TV     Should've seen it coming. SIGN    Otsu and Her Manager SIGN    Super Edo Scoop [09:55] Shin     Otsu-chan's in big trouble,     and it's all our fault! [09:58] Gin     Tch. [09:59] Gin     Who woulda thought this would happen right     before the release of the debut single? [10:02] OMom     We've been had. [10:04] OMom     The background on this     photograph has been shopped. [10:08] OMom     In other words, you were used     in a plot to bring Otsu down... [10:13] OMom     by Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48. [10:16] Shin     Th-They were behind this? [10:18] OMom     They're a special squad that has destroyed     top idols on all kinds of planets. [10:22] OMom     They're not picky about their methods. [10:24] Shin     They'll pay for this. [10:25] Shin     Let's expose their tactics and condemn them! [10:28] OMom     They have tremendous influence     with media across the galaxy. [10:32] OMom     It'll never see the light of day. [10:34] Gin     At this point, our only choice is to     upload a shaved-head apology video. [10:39] Shin     Even if you hate me, the manager, [10:41] Shin     please don't come to hate Booger Diamonds 48! [10:44] Shin     What part do you think you're shaving off?! [10:45] Kag     Or we'll have to put fries     and Shinpachi side-by-side [10:48] Kag     and upload a video about     which one will rot sooner. [10:50] Shin     Your brains are what's rotten! [10:52] OMom     Too late for that too, apparently.     They got the jump on us. [10:57] Bi     Greetings, earthlings! [10:59] Bi     We are the special unit of galactic idols, [11:02] Bi     Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48! [11:05] Bi     As it turns out, we're going     to make our debut on Earth! [11:10] All     Yay! [11:12] Bi     Our new single, "A Slut's Badge     of Honor," releases December 10th. [11:16] Shin     December 10th? The same release date     as Booger Diamonds 48's debut single? [11:20] Gin     They're even going with a similar title. [11:22] Bi     With that in mind, we plan to hold*     a release event at Oedo Dome. [11:29] Bi     But since that alone wouldn't     be exciting enough, [11:31] Bi     we've got some big guests lined up. [11:33] Bi     Surprise! [11:35] Bi     We want to invite Edo's top idol,     Terakado Tsu-chan, to this event! [11:41] Shin     Wha?! [11:42] Bi     We don't have an appointment yet, but... [11:44] Bi     Terakado Tsu-san, why don't we face     off to determine Edo's top idol? [11:50] Bi     Us, Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48, [11:54] Bi     versus Terakado Tsu's Booger Diamonds 48? [11:58] Bi     Let's compete to see which of us can     charm more fans in a meet-and-greet. [12:03] Bi     The winner gets to perform     their new single live. [12:06] Bi     But the loser has to retire from the     idol industry right then and there. [12:12] Bi     It's a battle to determine the top idol.     There has to be some risk involved. [12:17] Bi     Let's settle this, Terakado Tsu-san. [12:19] Bi     You were once the top idol in all of Edo. [12:23] Bi     We trust you won't run     away from this challenge. SIGN    Up Next The Making of Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48's "A Slut's Badge of Honor" SIGN    Cancel [12:29] Shin     Th-That was... [12:31] OMom     Well played. [12:32] OMom     Now that they've released     this video to the public, [12:35] OMom     our reputation will be ruined if we refuse. [12:37] Gin     For someone so cute, she sure can play dirty. [12:40] Gin     Kingdom Bitches is a fitting name, I say. [12:42] OMom     The words "idol" and "bitch"     are practically synonyms. [12:45] OMom     They're several times     better at this than Otsu. [12:48] Shin     That's a hell of a thing for the     president of an idol agency to say. [12:52] OMom     But we can't put her idol career on     the line, even if it makes us lose face. [12:57] OMom     And having lost all her fans,     Otsu stands no chance— [12:59] Shin     Not all of them. [13:02] Shin     She still has three fans right here. [13:05] Kag     Relax. I won't cause any trouble. [13:08] Kag     An idol digs out her boogers     with her own hands. [13:11] Gin     And besides, we Booger Diamonds 48 [13:14] Gin     are fully prepared to be the boogers that     make Otsu-chan's diamond shine bright. [13:20] OMom     You guys... [13:22] Shin     Until now, Otsu-chan has given     us hopes and dreams as an idol. [13:28] Shin     Now, it's our turn as fans to return the     favor by giving her hopes and dreams. SIGN    Oedo Dome [13:41] Bi     Hello, everyone! [13:43] Bi     Thanks for coming to see us today! [13:48] Bi     We are the idols of the entire universe... [13:51] Bi     Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48! [13:55] Bi     And here is the group that     accepted our challenge... [13:59] Kag     Heya. We are Booger Diamonds 48. [14:02] Bi     Yeah, right! [14:04] Bi     Where's Otsu? You're just     three piles of boogers now! [14:08] Bi     What kinda nostrils did you pop out of?! [14:11] Gin     We took responsibility for causing a     scandal by shaving our heads down there. [14:15] Gin     We are the newest members... [14:16] Shin     Pachie! [14:17] Gin     Pako! [14:19] Bi     You call that taking responsibility?! [14:21] Bi     You've gotta be kidding me. [14:22] Bi     We're here for Terakado Tsu! We don't     give two hoots about you morons! [14:26] Kag     Right back at ya. Otsu says she has     no time to waste on knobhead bitches. [14:33] Kag     But we decided to drop by while     chasing our boogers too far in. [14:37] Kag     You should be grateful to us. [14:38] Bi     Say what, you booger brat? [14:40] Com     Oh, my! Sparks are already     flying on the stage! [14:44] Com     Booger Diamonds 48 and Galaxy     Kingdom Bitches 48... [14:48] Com     Will their meet-and-greet with the fans     turn into a World Martial Arts Tournament? [14:53] Tae     Fine by us. [14:54] Tae     We don't care if you're a special     unit of galactic idols or whatever. [14:58] Tae     But if you want to settle things with     force, then we'll gladly play along. [15:02] Tae     Just know that you won't stand     a chance in hell of winning. [15:06] Tae     Not when you're against the strongest     combat backing band in the galaxy, [15:10] Tae     Diamond Vacuum. [15:13] Shin     Sis! [15:14] Gin     So they made it. [15:15] Com     Whoa! Booger Diamonds 48 had     a real ace up their sleeve! [15:20] Com     A group of hotties comparable to     Otsu-chan has taken the stage! [15:24] Kyu     We're saying we'll battle you     in your arena and on your terms. [15:28] Kyu     Get back, before we render     your pretty faces useless. [15:32] Sac     How dare you frame our producer? [15:35] Sac     The one sleeping with Producer Sakata is me! [15:38] Gin     What are you even here for? [15:40] Tsu     I don't know how things ended up     like this, but this too is fate. [15:44] Tsu     No matter in what arena, I refuse     to lose any battles I take part in. [15:49] Tsu     I'll show you the fruits of my training. [15:51] Gin     What the hell did you guys train for?! [15:53] Gin     Don't just do whatever the hell you please! [15:54] Bi     I see. [15:56] Bi     Otsu ran from us, so you     tried to make up for that [15:59] Bi     by hastily gathering trash     that's nothing but looks? [16:03] Bi     Man, I've never felt this insulted before. [16:09] Bi     Fine. If that's how you want to     play, we'll kill your careers [16:15] Bi     and crush you so thoroughly that Otsu will     never think about taking the stage again. [16:22] Bi     Let's determine the greatest idols     in the universe right here and now. [16:28] Com     Fight fair and square! [16:31] Com     The battle to determine the greatest     idols alive is now underway. [16:35] Com     This battle between Galaxy Kingdom     Bitches 48 and Booger Diamonds 48 [16:41] Com     will be decided by how many fans flock     to their respective meet-and-greets. [16:41] All     Pleased to meet you all! [16:44] Com     Whoa, as soon as the bell rings, a     tidal wave of people comes rushing in. [16:48] Com     Incredible! [16:49] Com     Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48! [16:52] Com     It's like they're gobbling up every fan in     the arena! What overwhelming popularity! [16:56] Com     Meanwhile, Booger Diamonds 48's     base is tumbleweed central! [17:00] Com     They may have a bunch of hotties,     but they're still newly debuted nobodies. [17:04] Com     Was it too soon for them to take on     the galaxy's greatest idol group? [17:09] Bi     Otsu or no Otsu, the outcome was     decided before it even started. [17:14] Bi     Didn't you realize that? [17:15] Bi     In truth, this was never a battle to     determine the greatest idols alive. [17:20] Bi     It's just a public execution. [17:22] Gin     That so? Either way, you shouldn't     get distracted during a battle. [17:27] Bi     Don't you get it? This can't     even be called a battle. [17:31] Gin     You're the one who doesn't get it. [17:33] Gin     An idol's enemy isn't just in front of her. [17:38] Tae     Yikes, what's with that line? [17:41] Sac     It's an idol meet-and-greet, apparently. [17:43] Bo     Ew, gross. [17:45] Com     That's... [17:49] Com     A rear ambush by the backing band! [17:53] Tae     So what if they can shake hands with idols?     Does that really make them happy? [17:57] Tae     Why are they so desperate? [17:59] Sac     You're so silly, Otae. [18:01] Sac     Look at them. They've probably never     held a girl's hand in their lives. [18:04] Sac     Oh, sorry. They've probably     never talked to one, either. [18:06] Com     The backing band unit's barrage of insults [18:09] Com     is making the fans lose all desire     to attend the meet-and-greet! [18:12] G     Rude! I have at least talked to girls! [18:14] Tae     I bet it just went like, "Would     you like that heated?" and "Sure." [18:18] G     There was more! Like,     "I don't need a plastic bag." [18:21] Sac     You don't call that talking to a girl. [18:23] Bi     That's cheating! Do you really     think you can mess with our line? [18:27] Gin     Keep talking. Plotting evil from behind     the idol is what a backing band does. [18:32] Tae     Don't they know that lining up     here won't resolve a thing? [18:37] Sac     They're basically lining up to     climb the 13 stairs to the gallows. [18:42] Com     Corpses everywhere! [18:43] Com     They're massacring the fans in Galaxy     Kingdom Bitches 48's line one after another! [18:48] Bi     Such futile resistance. [18:49] Bi     Your sabotaging is only making the     fans distance themselves from you. [18:57] Bi     What? [18:57] Kyu     You went too far, Tae-chan, Sarutobi. [19:00] Bi     They had a Plan B with more backing     band members at the back? [19:04] Tsu     Sorry. Are you all right? [19:07] Tsu     Can you stand? [19:08] Bi     Don't tell me, the first two backing     band members were just a setup? [19:12] Tsu     Forgive them. [19:14] Tsu     They mean no harm. They're just a little shy. [19:17] Bi     By mercilessly beating down the     fans and then picking them up... [19:20] Tsu     They wanted to talk to you all, but it     seems they didn't know where to begin. [19:25] Tsu     After all, it's the same for us. [19:28] Kyu     W-We've never held a meet-and-greet... [19:31] Tsu     ...before today. [19:34] Tae     Sorry. [19:35] Sac     In truth, we're the same as you. [19:39] Tae     If you don't mind... [19:42] All     ...could you take our first time? [19:46] Bi     They brought out the tsundere act?! [19:48] C     Hey, why did my heart just skip a beat? [19:51] C     The girls over there are pretty cute, too! [19:53] C     I think I'll head over there! [19:54] C     Me, too! [19:55] C     Me three! [19:56] Com     Whoa, Galaxy Kingdom Bitches     48's line is falling apart! [20:01] Gin     You were right. Nobodies could never     beat the greatest idols in the universe. [20:07] Gin     But it looks like this battle [20:09] Gin     is neither to determine the greatest     idols alive nor a public execution. [20:15] Gin     I hear it's just a battle to     determine the biggest sluts alive. [20:18] Gin     You're the ones who started playing dirty. [20:22] Gin     We'll make you regret it! [20:27] Bi     Wh-What're those? [20:29] Gin     Even if we can't win as idols, [20:32] Gin     Booger Diamonds 48 is invincible     in a battle of the sluts. [20:38] Com     Those are... toilet stalls! [20:40] Com     Are they using toilet stalls, of all things,     to compete with the bewitching curtains? [20:46] Bi     H-How vulgar. [20:49] Bi     A meet-and-greet in such a disgusting     place would never make the fans happy. [20:52] G     Wh-What's with the toilets? [20:54] G     Don't tell me, we'll get to see them     doing all sorts of dirty things? [20:59] G     No way, man. [21:00] G     But they're toilets. [21:01] Com     Oh, dear! The fans are beset by confusion! [21:07] Kag     Hey, Gin-chan! What's the meaning of this? [21:10] Tae     This is the first I'm hearing of a     meet-and-greet in toilets, Shin-chan. [21:12] Shin     I-It's not what you think, Sis! [21:14] Com     The fans aren't the only ones confused! [21:17] Gin     You know... This is the first     meet-and-greet for you guys, too. [21:20] Gin     You're probably feeling     too shy to face the fans. [21:23] Gin     That's where these come in.     Enter the stalls from beneath the toilets. [21:28] Gin     Just stick your hands out and wait. [21:31] Gin     That way, you can deal with any     kind of embarrassment just fine. [21:34] Gin     All you have to do after     that is shake everything. [21:37] Gin     You won't see a thing, but it's simple. [21:39] Gin     Just grab everything that's     held out in front of you. [21:41] Gin     Consider your hand nothing but toilet paper. [21:43] Tae     What perverted acts are you     trying to make us perform?! [21:46] G     You hear that? [21:48] G     I'm going over there! [21:51] Com     Wow! Even more people are leaving     Galaxy Kingdom Bitches 48's line! [21:56] Com     Producer Sakata is stealing even more     fans with a terrifying slut plan! [22:01] Bi     You shitheads! [22:03] Gin     This is where things get real. [22:05] Gin     Let's do this. Show them what     real sluts are capable of! [22:09] All     Who're you calling sluts?! [22:11] Gin     Ger-bleaurgh! SIGN    To Be Continued SIGN    Preview [23:44] Tsu     Everyone... Thank you so,     so much for everything. [23:49] Tsu     Next time: "An Idol's Badge of Honor."
