[00:00] Riku
Being nominated for the New Artist
Award is an amazing achievement.
[00:05] Riku
I finally made it this far,
so why aren't I happy?
[00:10] Riku
Maybe it's not my dream anymore.
[00:14] Riku
The Zero Arena...
[00:16] Riku
Zero, did the same thing happen to you?
[00:19] Riku
Did singing stop being your dream?
[00:26] Riku
Tenn-nii!
[00:27] Tenn
Riku.
SIGN Resolve At Zero
[00:32] Mitsuki
Disbanded...
[00:36] Mitsuki
I finally got a hold of my dream.
[00:39] Mitsuki
I should be happy.
[00:41] Mitsuki
So why?
[00:44] Mitsuki
Didn't I want to become like Zero?
[00:48] Nagi
Mitsuki.
[00:51] Mitsuki
Nagi, Sogo.
[00:53] Sogo
I unconsciously headed this way.
[00:56] Nagi
Me, too.
[01:00] Nagi
This was where Iori cried
after Music Festa.
[01:04] Nagi
My heart hurt.
[01:06] Sogo
You're right.
[01:08] Sogo
It was hard, but we believed we'd
manage as long as we were together.
[01:13] Mitsuki
You're right.
[01:14] Nagi
Can we not go back?
[01:20] Nagi
Has what makes us happy and
is important to us changed?
[01:26] Iori
I wasn't trying to become an idol at first.
[01:30] Iori
I just wanted my brother's
dream to come true.
[01:34] Iori
But as I secretly helped manage the group,
I came to like this job and IDOLiSH7.
[01:43] Yamato
You're right.
[01:45] Yamato
When I nearly left during the audition,
[01:48] Yamato
I never imagined that I'd come to love
you guys and singing so much.
[01:56] Yamato
So why can't I enjoy it?
[02:00] Tamaki
I didn't really care about
popularity or rules.
[02:05] Tamaki
After all, I had a goal.
[02:08] Tamaki
But seeing the guys work so
hard made me want to try, too.
[02:13] Tamaki
When I hurt them, I regretted it
from the bottom of my heart.
[02:19] Tamaki
When I saw them being so amazing, I got angry,
then frustrated, but now I admire them.
[02:25] Ryunosuke
I know what you mean.
[02:26] Tamaki
You guys wouldn't understand.
[02:28] Tamaki
You've always been winners.
[02:30] Ryunosuke
I'm just posturing.
[02:33] Ryunosuke
I'm actually lame, cowardly, and pathetic.
[02:37] Ryunosuke
But I don't put up a front for myself.
[02:41] Ryunosuke
It's for a moment's dream.
[02:44] Ryunosuke
Sometimes I want to come totally clean.
[02:48] Ryunosuke
But at the same time, I don't
want anyone to see that weakness.
[02:52] Ryunosuke
That's how I feel.
[02:54] Tamaki
Why?
[02:56] Ryunosuke
It's not that I want to be loved.
[02:59] Ryunosuke
I want my singing and dancing to
be loved, as a part of TRIGGER.
[03:05] Ryunosuke
Praising me when I fail because they love me.
[03:07] Ryunosuke
Disparaging me when I succeed
because they hate me.
[03:10] Ryunosuke
I want people to go beyond those feelings,
and love my singing and dancing.
[03:14] Ryunosuke
I always hope it'll happen so
I can be proud of this strength
[03:18] Ryunosuke
I worked so hard to achieve.
[03:24] Riku
Um, what were you doing here?
[03:31] Riku
Are you on your way back from work?
[03:33] Tenn
Your throat will get cold
if you walk around at night.
[03:38] Riku
It's gotten a lot better.
[03:40] Riku
I've been getting fewer attacks.
[03:43] Tenn
I see.
[03:44] Riku
It's too bad TRIGGER didn't
get to perform the other day.
[03:49] Riku
Since I sang better than usual,
I wanted you to see it.
[03:59] Riku
I wanted to sing like you,
but not just to copy you.
[04:05] Riku
Because I couldn't run around outside,
you'd sing and jump around to entertain me.
[04:14] Riku
Whenever I saw you smile, I smiled.
[04:19] Riku
I wanted you to smile, too.
[04:25] Tsumugi
Guys...
[04:30] Tsumugi
Gaku-san?
[04:32] Gaku
Ah, so you're here, too.
[04:39] Gaku
They all want the same thing.
[04:43] Gaku
Over there.
[04:51] Tsumugi
You guys!
[04:53] Gaku
Have you ever seen us perform?
[04:57] Tsumugi
Yes.
[04:58] Gaku
What did you think?
[05:00] Tsumugi
TRIGGER was so cool and perfect.
[05:03] Tsumugi
The overwhelming aura you
gave off was fantastic.
[05:07] Tsumugi
I felt pure respect and emotion.
[05:11] Tsumugi
I thought I was lucky to have
seen something so wonderful,
[05:14] Tsumugi
and now I can say that with pride.
[05:17] Tsumugi
It's like when you look up at a rainbow.
[05:20] Tsumugi
My dream is for IDOLiSH7
to surpass that rainbow.
[05:27] Gaku
You...
[05:28] Tsumugi
IDOLiSH7 will surpass TRIGGER, so please,
stay within our reach so we can overtake you.
[05:36] Gaku
That's quite a thing to say.
[05:39] Gaku
We won't lose, either.
[05:41] Gaku
We're TRIGGER.
[05:43] Gaku
We're ready to meet you.
[05:47] Riku
I won't ask why you left us anymore.
[05:52] Riku
I lost my personal star,
[05:55] Riku
but I gained an incredible rival
that I can brag about to the world.
[06:00] Riku
Kujo Tenn, that's you.
[06:03] Riku
Sometimes, liking or admiring something
isn't enough to make progress.
[06:06] Riku
Some things can't be overcome with kindness.
[06:09] Riku
But I want to keep singing!
[06:12] Riku
This is my weapon, after all.
[06:14] Riku
As long as I have my weapon and my friends,
I want to keep fighting as long as I can!
[06:19] Tenn
Riku...
[06:21] Riku
I'll run towards you as fast as I can.
[06:23] Riku
I'll keep running until
I can't breathe anymore!
[06:27] Tenn
Sure. Come at me with all you've got.
[06:31] Tenn
I'll forget that I had a brother
who couldn't run.
[06:34] Tenn
Nice to meet you, IDOLiSH7's Nanase Riku.
[06:42] Riku
Nice to meet you, TRIGGER's Kujo Tenn-san.
[06:46] Tenn
Very good.
[06:52] Tenn
Bye-bye.
[06:57] Riku
Guys... and Manager.
[07:00] Tenn
What are you doing?
[07:01] Gaku
We happened to pass by.
[07:04] Ryunosuke
We came to get you.
[07:08] Riku
Why?
[07:09] Riku
Wait a minute, did you hear all of that?
[07:15] Yamato
As long as we're all here,
[07:18] Yamato
why don't we think of ways to beg the
president for forgiveness over some ramen?
[07:23] Sogo
I agree.
[07:24] Tamaki
I want pork bone broth.
[07:26] Nagi
I want bonito broth.
[07:28] Tsumugi
I'll secretly expense it.
[07:30] Mitsuki
Then I guess we'll have
to go bar hopping again.
[07:33] Mitsuki
But won't that put us over our calorie limit?
[07:35] Iori
We just have to exercise to make up for it.
[07:39] Tamaki
Chashu ramen!
[07:40] Mitsuki
With a side of fried rice!
[07:42] Iori
Boiled eggs.
[07:43] Riku
I want pot stickers!
[07:44] Yamato
You can't have pot stickers without beer.
[07:47] Sogo
Maybe I'll get a super spicy tantanmen.
[08:02] Mitsuki
You think the president will forgive us?
[08:05] Yamato
He was pretty mad.
[08:08] Nagi
He probably dissolved the
group because he didn't think
[08:13] Nagi
we deserved to sing right now.
[08:15] Sogo
What does that mean?
[08:16] Nagi
I think he just values our songs that much.
[08:21] Riku
IDOLiSH7's songs...
[08:24] Iori
We never learned who was writing them.
[08:27] Nagi
I know.
[08:28] Nagi
I know who composed our songs.
[08:32] All
What?!
[08:33] Nagi
I'm the one who secretly sent IDOLiSH7's
songs to Takanashi Productions.
[08:39] Tsumugi
You were?!
[08:40] Tamaki
Nagicchi, you wrote them?
[08:43] Nagi
No, my friend wrote them.
[08:47] Sogo
Your friend?
[08:51] Nagi
My friend wrote songs for a certain person.
[08:55] Nagi
He came to my country to find that person.
[09:00] Nagi
My friend's name is Sakura Haruki.
[09:04] Mitsuki
Sakura Haruki? You don't mean...
[09:07] Nagi
Yes. The person who wrote Zero's songs.
[09:10] Riku
Zero's songs?
[09:11] Iori
So we've been singing songs
written by Zero's composer?
[09:17] Tamaki
Wow...
[09:19] Nagi
Haruki played many, many songs for me.
[09:22] Nagi
But Haruki became sick.
[09:25] Nagi
I wanted Haruki to get better, but...
[09:30] Nagi
Not wanting to inconvenience me,
he left behind a letter and those songs.
[09:36] Nagi
His letter asked me to give the songs to
someone who would sing them with care.
[09:43] Nagi
I wanted them to be sung by
a Japanese idol like Zero,
[09:49] Nagi
but no such idol existed.
[09:52] Nagi
So without a word, I sent the songs to
a company president Haruki had praised.
[09:56] Tsumugi
He praised my father?
[09:59] Nagi
He said he cherished people and songs.
[10:02] Nagi
After sending the songs, I wanted to
see what the president looked like,
[10:05] Nagi
so I came to Japan.
[10:07] Nagi
Then I was suddenly scouted.
[10:10] Tamaki
It really was sudden when he scouted us.
[10:14] Nagi
I felt it was my destiny.
[10:15] Nagi
That's how I became an idol.
[10:18] Sogo
The president still doesn't know you
were the one who sent the songs?
[10:22] Nagi
Yes. If we tell him we'll sing Haruki's
songs with care, I'm sure he'll forgive us.
[10:31] Mitsuki
You're right.
[10:33] Nagi
If he won't forgive us,
I'll demand he return them.
[10:36] Mitsuki
Don't ruin an emotional moment like that.
[10:39] Riku
Let's apologize and ask him to forgive us
for not being happy about being nominated
[10:44] Riku
for the New Artist Award.
[10:45] Tamaki
Should we practice our happy reactions?
[10:49] Iori
That's not what he's angry about.
[10:52] Tsumugi
Yes?
[10:54] Yamato
Sir!
[10:56] Otoharu
Could you come with me?
[11:01] Mitsuki
This place...
[11:02] Riku
It's where we held our
first street performance.
[11:10] Otoharu
Could I get a CD?
[11:13] Singer
Yes. Thank you.
[11:16] Singer
Here you go.
[11:18] Otoharu
You have my support.
[11:19] Otoharu
Can I shake your hand?
[11:20] Singer
Y-Yes.
[11:22] Otoharu
Thank you.
[11:27] Otoharu
There are many here who
haven't achieved their
[11:29] Otoharu
dreams yet, just like you hadn't.
[11:30] Otoharu
All right!
[11:32] Otoharu
You're standing on the stage
they'd die to stand on.
[11:37] Otoharu
You mustn't forget what a blessing that is.
[11:41] All
Yes, sir.
[11:43] Otoharu
You should take better care of both
yourselves, and the dream you once had.
[11:52] Otoharu
You should pat yourselves on the
back for achieving that dream.
[11:57] Otoharu
I'll tell you one more time: you've been
nominated for the New Artist Award.
[12:02] Otoharu
How do you feel right now, Nanase Riku-kun?
[12:04] Riku
I'm happy.
[12:06] Otoharu
Nikaido Yamato-kun.
[12:08] Yamato
We've achieved something amazing.
[12:11] Otoharu
That's right. You've done something amazing.
[12:15] Otoharu
You're doing something so amazing,
it can't be erased by unkind words
[12:18] Otoharu
or sad misunderstandings.
[12:21] Sogo
Sir.
[12:21] Otoharu
You don't have to doubt the hard work
you've been putting in for months now.
[12:27] Nagi
Yes.
[12:28] Otoharu
I'm proud of you.
[12:30] Otoharu
You should be proud of yourselves.
[12:32] Tamaki
Yeah.
[12:34] Mitsuki
Yes, sir.
[12:36] Otoharu
Congratulations. That's
all I have to say to you.
[12:42] Yuka
No way...

We hope you win the award!

And perform at Black or White!
[13:07] Megumi
Um, my mom bought a new HDD since you'll
be on TV a lot over the end of the year!
[13:13] Yuka
Mine, too! We'll record all your hard work!
[13:18] Megumi
Oh, I'm sorry for springing this on you!
[13:20] Yuka
Sorry for telling you what to do!
[13:22] Mitsuki
Thanks. We'll do our best.
[13:25] Yamato
We wouldn't want those
HDDs to go to waste.
[13:28] Nagi
We'll win the JIMA New Artist Award
for you beautiful young ladies.
[13:32] Tamaki
And we'll knock TRIGGER
out at Black or White.
[13:36] Sogo
We hope you'll continue supporting us.
[13:39] Both
We will!
[13:40] Iori
I'm glad.
[13:41] Iori
I'm glad we were nominated and
have the support of our fans.
[13:46] Iori
I'm glad to be a part of IDOLiSH7.
[13:51] Mitsuki
Take care.
[13:53] Tsumugi
They seemed so happy.
[13:56] Riku
Yeah, but we're the ones
who are really happy.
[14:01] Gaku
All right. I'm counting on you, Ryu.

but let me say what I want to say first.
[14:13] Gaku

[14:36] Tenn
Uh, oh. I was playing with
scissors and cut the phone cord.
[14:41] Sosuke

[14:41] Gaku
No one's in the office.
[14:43] Gaku
We threw them a thank you
party with our pocket money.
[14:46] Gaku
They're having fun complaining
about you right now.
[14:49] Sosuke
Don't get ahead of yourselves!
[14:50] Sosuke
You're not my son!
[14:52] Sosuke
I could replace you in a heartbeat!
[14:54] Ryunosuke
I'm gon' scalp that brainless head, ya moron!

They won the most prestigious New Artist

[18:16] Riku
Can we safely assume TRIGGER supports us?
[18:20] Yamato
Yeah. We'd better work hard.
[18:25] Mitsuki
These don't have a name on them.
[18:26] Mitsuki
I wonder who they're from.
[18:27] Sogo
They're nice flowers.
[18:29] Iori
I hate to bring up the price, but I believe
these are fairly expensive flowers.
[18:34] Iori
Osaka-san, could they be from your family?
[18:36] Sogo
Yeah, right.
[18:37] Sogo
There's no way they're happy about this.
[18:40] Yamato
Just pretend they are, even if they're not.
[18:43] Sogo
Yamato-san.
[18:45] Tamaki
Then I'll pretend they're flowers from Aya.
[18:48] Mitsuki
I'll pretend they're from Zero.
[18:51] Mitsuki
He's cheering me on.
[18:53] Nagi
I'll pretend they're from Haruki.
[18:56] Nagi
A healthy Haruki sent a gift to us,
the people singing his songs.
[19:02] Riku
I'll pretend Tenn-nii sent
me a gift personally.
[19:06] Riku
That'll make me unstoppable.
[19:08] Riku
And you, Iori?
[19:09] Iori
I'll imagine they're from my past self,
who forgot to sing at Music Festa.
[19:14] Riku
Iori...
[19:16] Mitsuki
You're still bothered by that?
[19:19] Iori
The mistake I made that day delayed us.
[19:25] Iori
But it's all right now.
[19:26] Iori
We can still arrive at our destination.
[19:30] Iori
I can still make up for that day's mistake.
[19:34] Riku
You dummy, you've already made up for it.
[19:38] Mitsuki
Yeah, Iori.
[19:39] Mitsuki
You really reflected on your mistake, thought
really hard about it, and worked really hard.
[19:45] Mitsuki
Everyone here knows that.
[19:49] Iori
Nii-san.
[19:51] Yamato
No one's blaming you.
[19:52] Yamato
You're the only one blaming yourself.
[19:55] Sogo
MEZZO"'s debut is working well for us now.
[19:58] Tamaki
You'll never last if you worry about
every little mistake you make, Iorin.
[20:03] Sogo
I wish you'd worry about yours a little more.
[20:06] Iori
Guys...
[20:06] Nagi
Everyone's afraid to make mistakes.
[20:09] Nagi
Shadows of our mistakes
prick our hearts like thorns.
[20:15] Nagi
But over time, those thorns
have slowly melted inside you.
[20:21] Nagi
Tonight we'll win the New Artist Award,
and where those thorns were—hello!
[20:25] Nagi
Confidence will take their place.
[20:27] Iori
Yes.
[20:28] Riku
I'll sing properly tonight.
[20:30] Riku
Like you said, I won't be nervous.
I'll sing in my best voice.
[20:34] Riku
Let's get that New Artist Award!
[20:37] Iori
Yes.
[20:37] Mitsuki
Okay, guys. Let's all hug Iori!
[20:41] Iori
Hey!
[20:42] Iori
There, there!
[20:43] Iori
Please stop!
[20:44] Iori
Don't treat me like a child!
[20:48] Tsumugi
It's nearly time for—
[20:52] Yamato
Let's go!
[20:54] All
Yeah!
[20:57] Narration
IDOLiSH7 will now perform
their song, "MONSTER GENERATiON."
[21:44] Riku
Strangely, I wasn't nervous.
[21:47] Riku
Maybe it's because I feel our*
bonds are stronger than ever.
[21:52] Riku
The back of Yamato-san, who always
pulls us along with a carefree grin.
[21:58] Riku
The smiling face of Mitsuki,
who always leads the charge,
[22:01] Riku
whether we're deeply moved or
crying tears of frustration.
[22:06] Riku
The ascertaining gaze of Sogo-san, who
always kindly looks out for everyone.
[22:12] Riku
The serious expression of Nagi,
[22:14] Riku
who may seem like he's joking around,
but loves us more than anyone else.
[22:20] Riku
The powerful steps of Tamaki, who's affable,
[22:23] Riku
honest, and pure, despite causing us trouble.
[22:28] Riku
The fingers of impudent Iori
were trembling very slightly.
[22:33] Riku
As we strive to achieve the same
goal, our hearts become one.
[22:39] Riku
No one can beat us now!
[23:35] MC

Music Awards New Artist Award is...
