[00:01] Gaku
    I heard they won the New Artist Award.
[00:02] Gaku
    Congratulations.
[00:04] Gaku
    I wanted to tell them myself.
[00:06] Tsumugi
    Thank you. They were all so happy.
[00:10] Tsumugi
    Naturally they were happy
    about winning the award,
[00:12] Tsumugi
    but also,
[00:12] Tsumugi
    to be challenging reigning champions
    TRIGGER at the end of the year.
[00:15] Gaku
    Yeah, I'm looking forward to it, too.
[00:19] Gaku
    What's so funny?
[00:20] Tsumugi
    You're the one who anonymously
    recommended IDOLiSH7 for Music Festa.
[00:27] Gaku
    I don't know what you're talking about.
[00:29] Tsumugi
    Oh, right.
[00:31] Tsumugi
    There's a soba deliveryman near our
    office who looks just like you.
[00:35] Gaku
    Really?
[00:35] Tsumugi
    Next time you're over, I'll—
[00:37] Tsumugi
    Oh, there won't be a next time.
[00:40] Tsumugi
    After all, TRIGGER and
    IDOLiSH7 are rivals now.
[00:44] Gaku
    You're right.
[00:45] Gaku
    Once they lose to us,
    I'm sure you'll hate us.
[00:48] Tsumugi
    IDOLiSH7 won't lose.
[00:50] Gaku
    Neither will we.
[00:52] Gaku
    Talk to you later.
[00:53] Gaku
    The next time we meet will
    be at Black or White.
[00:55] Tsumugi
    Yes.
[00:55] Gaku
    Goodnight.
[00:58] Ogami
    Who was that?
[01:01] Tsumugi
    Oh, um... TRIGGER's Yaotome-san.
[01:04] Tsumugi
    He congratulated us on
    the New Artist Award.
[01:06] Ogami
    He bothered to call?
[01:07] Ogami
    What a conscientious person.
[01:09] Tsumugi
    Yeah...
[01:11] Ogami
    So the boys won the JIMA New Artist Award.
[01:14] Ogami
    It's inspiring, isn't it?
[01:16] Tsumugi
    Yes. I feel like I'm dreaming.
[01:19] Ogami
    To be honest, I used to play music, too.
[01:23] Tsumugi
    Really?
[01:24] Ogami
    Yes, so it feels like they
    made my dream come true.
[01:30] Ogami
    I hope they become
     internationally famous.
[01:34] Ogami
    You don't think I'm being
    too ambitious, do you?
[01:37] Tsumugi
    Not at all.
[01:37] Tsumugi
    IDOLiSH7's potential is limitless.
[01:44] Tsumugi
    Yes, this is Takanashi.
[01:46] Tsumugi
    Huh? Uh, sorry?
[01:48] Tsumugi
    Pardon?!
[01:53] Nagi
    IDOLiSH7 will sing happily for you.
[01:56] Nagi
    Sure. See you.
[01:58] Tsumugi
    Nagi-san, what did he say?
[02:01] Nagi
    Douglas Rootbank will be coming to
    Japan for his Christmas performance.
[02:04] Nagi
    He wants us to open for him.
[02:08] Tsumugi
    Douglas Rootbank?
[02:09] Ogami
    Popular American pop-rock
    singer Douglas Rootbank?!
[02:15] All
    What?!
[02:16] ---
    Yes.
[02:19] Iori
    Douglas Rootbank...
[02:21] Iori
    The president and Osaka-san
    were rather excited yesterday.
[02:25] Tamaki
    Yeah.
[02:25] Tamaki
    Since So-chan's so smart, he
    likes songs in English, too.
[02:30] Iori
    I don't think those are related.
SIGN    Collect all 5
     Original Mascot
     Limited Special Charm
[02:33] Iori
    You don't want that bonus item?
[02:35] Tamaki
    Nah.
[02:36] Iori
    It'd be a waste to throw
    it away, so I'll take it.
[02:40] Iori
    I'm just trying to recycle.
[02:42] Tamaki
    When does the meeting start?
[02:44] Iori
    It should be starting soon.
[02:48] Iori
    Yes, who is—
SIGN    Donburi
[02:50] Douglas
    IDOLiSH—
[02:52] Tamaki
    Why'd you close it?
[02:53] Iori
    There was some kind of weirdo.
[02:54] Tamaki
    What?
[02:55] Iori
    As a child, I was taught not to
    answer the door for strange people.
[03:01] Tamaki
    I'll answer it.
[03:04] Douglas
    IDOLiSH7, my name—
[03:07] Tamaki
    You were right.
[03:08] Iori
    See?
[03:09] Tamaki
    He looked like a namahage ogre.
[03:10] Iori
    Is he a stalker?
[03:14] Tamaki
    Maybe he's the guy Manager mentioned
    who's here to install the screen.
[03:19] Iori
    Yeah.
[03:23] Douglas
    Nice to meet you.
[03:24] Douglas
    My name is—
[03:24] Iori
    H-Hey! Don't hug me!
[03:26] Douglas
    Oh, sorry. My name is—
[03:28] Tamaki
    Look, Mister, we're underage.
[03:31] Tamaki
    We need an adult to help us
    understand difficult concepts.
[03:36] Douglas
    Hello.
[03:37] Both
    Hello.
[03:39] Douglas
    My name—
[03:39] Tamaki
    This way, please.
[03:41] Douglas
    Oh. My name is—
[03:43] Iori
    I guess they send foreign workers
    to install foreign-made screens.
[03:48] Tamaki
    It's not here. The screen's not here yet.
[03:52] Tamaki
    Okay?
[03:52] Douglas
    Not here?
[03:53] Tamaki
    He understood me.
[03:55] Tamaki
    Iorin, I can speak English.
[03:58] Iori
    Then ask if he needs a stepladder.
[04:01] Tamaki
    Lad... der...
[04:05] Tamaki
    Up and down.
[04:08] Douglas
    Y-Yeah?
[04:09] Tamaki
    He needs one!
[04:10] Douglas
    Lad... der?
[04:13] Tamaki
    Feet here, okay?
[04:16] Tamaki
    Foot goes here.
[04:17] Douglas
    Okay, okay.
[04:19] Iori
    Could you have him remove
    the light cover while he's at it?
[04:22] Iori
    It's dirty.
[04:23] Riku
    Sorry I'm la—
[04:25] Tamaki
    Welcome back.
[04:28] Tamaki
    What's up, Rikkun?
[04:31] Riku
    Wh-Why is Douglas Rootbank
    replacing our light cover?!
[04:38] Douglas
    My name is—
[04:39] Iori
    Douglas?
[04:40] Tamaki
    Rootbank?
[04:43] Tsumugi
    I'm terribly sorry about what happened!
[04:47] Douglas
    Oh, no problem.
[04:50] Sogo
    We will work diligently to ensure
    nothing like this ever happens again!
[04:55] Nagi
    Oh, Sogo. I can't translate all of that.
[04:58] Sogo
    Tell him I'd be happy to give him my pinky
    finger to compensate for this offense!
[05:04] Nagi
    No, keep your finger.
[05:07] Tsumugi
    I had no idea Douglas-san
    was coming to the office.
[05:11] Otoharu
    I'm overjoyed!
[05:12] Tsumugi
    Huh?
[05:12] Sogo
    So am I!
[05:14] Tsumugi
    What?
[05:16] Douglas
    I just wanted to surprise you.
[05:18] Nagi
    Apparently he wanted to surprise us.
[05:21] Yamato
    These guys are huge fans.
[05:23] Yamato
    You should get his autograph.
[05:25] Sogo
    What? I can't...
[05:27] Riku
    ...ask for his...
[05:28] Mitsuki
    ...autograph...
[05:29] Otoharu
    What? No, I couldn't...
[05:30] Yamato
    Sir, you can't be nervous, too.
[05:34] Douglas
    Here you go.
[05:35] Sogo
    Thank you.
[05:38] Sogo
    Even if my entire room goes up in flames,
    tell him I swear to protect this.
[05:42] Nagi
    Oh. Sogo, your expressions are too much.
[05:46] Tamaki
    You didn't even get mad at me when
     I made you get a hole in your stomach,
[05:50] Tamaki
    but this old dude—
[05:51] Sogo
    Don't call him an old dude.
[05:52] Tamaki
    But you got all pissed that I made
    Douglas replace our light cover.
[05:57] Otoharu
    I was pissed off, too.
[05:59] Otoharu
    I nearly committed harakiri
    to make up for it.
[06:02] Tamaki
    Aren't you more important that him?
[06:03] Otoharu
    Douglas is more important.
[06:05] Tamaki
    Whoa...
[06:10] Nagi
    "I saw that very seven in a video
    and I knew they would be stars,
[06:16] Nagi
    because they rocked my heart.
[06:20] Nagi
    I thought I should meet them.
[06:23] Nagi
    I'm happy to celebrate
    Christmas with you guys.
[06:26] Nagi
    Let's spend a super sizzling night."
[06:28] Nagi
    ...Is what he said.
[06:31] Otoharu
    We have a great musician here in our office.
[06:34] Otoharu
    Why don't you ask him something?
[06:36] Yamato
    A question, huh?
[06:38] Riku
    Excuse me...
[06:39] Riku
    We have a big performance coming up.
[06:42] Riku
    We'll be competing against our rivals there.
[06:43] Nagi
    "We have a big performance coming up.
[06:45] Riku
    Is there some secret to beating them?
[06:46] Nagi
    We'll be competing against our rivals there.
[06:48] Mitsuki
    If I knew I'd be talking to Douglas,
    I would've studied English harder.
[06:50] Nagi
    Is there some secret to beating them?"
[06:55] Nagi
    "It's God that decides who wins.
[06:57] Nagi
    But what we need to better ourselves is love."
[07:02] Riku
    Love...
[07:09] Nagi
    "You hear songs through your ears, but when
    you hear songs that have love in them,
[07:14] Nagi
    your heart starts to rumble first,
    and then your body starts to dance.
[07:19] Nagi
    Zero's songs were just like that."
[07:21] Mitsuki
    Zero?!
[07:22] Mitsuki
    Douglas-san, you know Zero?!
[07:24] Douglas
    Yes, I love Zero.
[07:26] Douglas
    We love Zero.
[07:31] Nagi
    "I've met Zero only once.
[07:33] Nagi
    Hearing his song right before me was
    a valuable experience for me in life."
[07:40] Douglas
    Miracle.
[07:40] Nagi
    "I felt like I was struck
    by something magical."
[07:43] Mitsuki
    Zero's amazing!
[07:47] Nagi
    "Zero certainly knew what love is,
    and what it means to be loved."
SIGN    Douglas Rootbank Exclusive Interview!
[08:00] Gaku
    I can't believe they're
    opening for Douglas Rootbank.
[08:03] Ryunosuke
    Lucky them. I'm a huge fan.
[08:06] Ryunosuke
    If my schedule were open, I'd go.
[08:09] Tenn
    We opened for an English diva.
[08:13] Anesagi
    How can you be so calm?
[08:15] Anesagi
    The Black or White vote
    is open to the public.
[08:19] Anesagi
    The more people talk about them,
    the more votes they'll take—
[08:22] Tenn
    Then we'll take them back.
[08:24] Tenn
    Well, no matter how much
     this gets people talking,
[08:27] Tenn
    it just means they're finally
    on equal footing with us.
[08:30] Ryunosuke
    A tense race isn't so bad.
[08:33] Gaku
    Let's show our strong challengers
    a champion's dignity.
[08:38] Gaku
    We'll settle the score at Black or White.
[08:44] Shimooka
    The year's nearly over.
[08:46] Shimooka
    Will the start of the approaching
    new year be met magnificently
[08:51] Shimooka
    by last year's champions
    or their challengers?
[08:55] Shimooka
    Yours could be the deciding vote.
[09:00] Shimooka
    The Black or White Music Fantasia starts now.
[09:14] Gaku
    Hey.
[09:16] Riku
    Hello.
[09:16] Gaku
    I'm going to make your brother and Ryu win.
[09:19] Gaku
    No hard feelings.
[09:21] Riku
    Well, I'll make my friends win.
[09:24] Riku
    I'll stand in the center and
    pull them along with me!
[09:29] Gaku
    You've got guts.
[09:31] Gaku
    Good luck, Nanase.
[09:32] Riku
    You too, Yaotome-san.
[09:34] Tenn
    Riku.
[09:35] Riku
    Tenn-nii.
[09:36] Tenn
    I wasn't expecting to meet you on this stage.
[09:40] Tenn
    I won't hold back.
[09:41] Tenn
    Good luck tonight, IDOLiSH7.
[09:44] Riku
    You, too!
[09:49] Gaku
    It's nearly time.
[09:50] Tenn
    Are you nervous?
[09:52] Gaku
    A little.
[09:52] Tenn
    This side of you is cute.
[09:55] Gaku
    Shut up.
[09:56] Ryunosuke
    I'm glad.
[09:58] Ryunosuke
    We get to challenge them
    head on with our own song.
[10:03] Gaku
    Yeah.
[10:04] Tenn
    Let's not embarrass ourselves in
    front of them or the audience.
[10:08] Tenn
    Win or lose, let's make this a
    supremely euphoric performance.
[10:16] Gaku
    We'll win.
[10:17] Ryunosuke
    Yeah.
[10:18] Tenn
    Hey.
[10:20] Tenn
    Should we high five or something?
[10:23] Ryunosuke
    What?
[10:24] Gaku
    This is why I can't stand kids.
[10:26] Tenn
    Sorry. I'll never mention it again.
[10:29] Gaku
    Sheesh.
[10:32] Gaku
    Let's go, TRIGGER!
[10:37] All
    Yeah!
[10:39] Ryunosuke
    You're not very honest.
[10:41] Gaku
    Shut it!
[10:43] Shimooka
    Next up is last year's winners of
    the male idol category, TRIGGER!
[10:49] Shimooka
    Listen to that crowd.
[10:51] Tenn
    Thank you.
[10:53] Tenn
    We made it this far thanks to our fans.
[10:56] Shimooka
    I heard you're performing a new song tonight.
[10:59] Ryunosuke
    It's a song only we can sing.
[11:01] Shimooka
    Do you have a message for
    your challengers, IDOLiSH7?
[11:04] Gaku
    They're a worthy opponent.
[11:06] Shimooka
    This is TRIGGER, performing "Leopard Eyes."
[12:11] Riku
    Whoa...
[12:12] Iori
    This song is TRIGGER on full blast.
[12:15] Mitsuki
    I'm sure their fans are enjoying it.
[12:17] Sogo
    TRIGGER's world view is totally complete.
[12:19] Tamaki
    Whoa, those moves.
[12:21] Tamaki
    It's amazing they can pull them off.
[12:23] Nagi
    It's great!
[12:24] Riku
    Since that day we watched TRIGGER's concert
[12:26] Riku
    and started singing together,
    we finally made it this far.
[12:30] Riku
    Let's give everything we've got
    and stand side by side with them!
[12:34] Iori
    We'll surpass them.
[12:37] Mitsuki
    Anyway, the arena is huge.
[12:40] Mitsuki
    And so is the audience.
[12:42] Yamato
    It's our first time performing on this scale.
[12:45] Yamato
    Tama, this year-end show has the
    highest ratings of any in Japan.
[12:48] Yamato
    Your sister's probably watching.
[12:51] Tamaki
    Yeah.
[12:52] Tamaki
    Hey, why did we become idols?
[12:58] Yamato
    Didn't you do it to find your sister?
[13:00] Yamato
    Yeah, but that's not what I meant.
[13:04] Tamaki
    The guys on stage say thank you all the time.
[13:08] Tamaki
    I thought they were just saying
    it because it felt good.
[13:12] Tamaki
    But I was wrong.
[13:14] Sogo
    You're right.
[13:15] Sogo
    It really does come welling
    up from your heart.
[13:17] Yamato
    It feels strange to make others happy
    by just doing what you want.
[13:22] Nagi
    It makes you want to make
    them even happier next time.
[13:25] Mitsuki
    And the next, and the next.
[13:27] Mitsuki
    More and more and more.
[13:29] Iori
    The feeling bubbles over.
[13:31] Riku
    It's like Douglas said.
[13:33] Mitsuki
    It's what Zero knew.
[13:38] Riku
    We have to win!
[13:43] Tsumugi
    Good luck.
[13:45] Tsumugi
    Do your best, guys.
[13:48] Tsumugi
    I'll be rooting for you.
[13:51] Riku
    Manager...
[13:52] Iori
    You idiot, it's too soon to cry.
[13:55] Iori
    We're about to show you
    something even better.
[13:58] Nagi
    Yes, smile.
[14:00] Nagi
    I promise we'll win tonight.
[14:02] Sogo
    It only makes up for a fraction
    of all the worry we've caused.
[14:06] Tamaki
    But we'll do it.
[14:07] Mitsuki
    We'll make you glad you're our manager.
[14:11] Yamato
    We promise we'll bring home the trophy.
[14:13] Tsumugi
    Okay!
[14:33] Shimooka
    Thank you!
[14:35] Shimooka
    Let's give TRIGGER a hand!
[14:38] Gaku
    With you guys, I can go even higher.
SIGN    Greenroom A175
[14:46] Yamato
    Shall we do our regular thing?
[14:49] Yamato
    This isn't the finish line.
[14:51] Yamato
    In fact, we probably
    don't have a finish line.
[14:54] Yamato
    Cry or laugh, there's only
     one thing we can do.
[14:58] Yamato
    Let's give everything we've got, right now!
[15:01] Yamato
    Let's go!
[15:03] All
    Yeah!
[15:05] Riku
    Iori.
[15:07] Riku
    Remember how you told me
    you'd make me a superstar?
[15:10] Iori
    I remember.
[15:11] Riku
    Do you still feel that way?
[15:13] Iori
    Of course. You're our bomb.
[15:16] Iori
    Now show us the strongest
    explosion you can muster.
[15:20] Iori
    It's all right if the blast faces our way.
[15:22] Iori
    This time I'll support you perfectly.
[15:25] Riku
    I'm counting on it.
[15:29] Shimooka
    And now, presenting
     the challengers, IDOLiSH7!
[15:35] Shimooka
    You guys had a big year.
[15:38] Riku
    Yeah. It's like my life flipped 180 degrees.
[15:42] Shimooka
    What do you remember most?
[15:44] Mitsuki
    Performing a concert in an empty arena.
[15:47] Konomi
    I was there!
[15:49] Iori
    After seeing how strong our members
    are, I realized this group is amazing.
[15:54] Shimooka
    I heard IDOLiSH7 has a new song, too.
[15:59] Yamato
    Yeah. It's like a compilation of
    everything we've done until now.
[16:02] Shimooka
    Is there anything you want to tell TRIGGER?
[16:05] Sogo
    They were amazing.
[16:06] Sogo
    I forgot about the contest and was
    captivated by their ultimate performance.
[16:10] Sogo
    That's why...
[16:11] Tamaki
    We want to beat you.
[16:13] Shimooka
    Do you have a message for your fans?
[16:15] Nagi
    I love you.
[16:17] Shimooka
    This is IDOLiSH7 performing
    "MEMORiES MELODiES!"
[17:23] Riku
    I thought I couldn't do anything.
[17:26] Iori
    I thought I'd never experience
    excitement in my boring life.
[17:29] Yamato
    I thought working hard was just a hassle.
[17:33] Sogo
    Even when I tried to change, I couldn't.
[17:36] Tamaki
    I had lots of unpleasant experiences
    I didn't have to have.
[17:39] Mitsuki
    But I never stopped wishing for it.
[17:43] Nagi
    While holding hands with
    my friends, I dreamed.
[17:47] Riku
    I wondered if there were things
    even guys as small as us could do.
[17:51] Konomi
    You can do it! You can do it!
[17:54] Sister
    I7's pretty good today.
[17:56] Mom
    Rikkun's full of energy.
