[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.

[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?

[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.

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.

[06:39] 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.

[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!

[14:49] 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. [17:58] Megumi     You can do it! [18:08] Ryunosuke     They're smiling. [18:09] Gaku     I'm glad they're the real deal. [18:11] Tenn     I feel like I might     accidentally cheer them on. [18:22] Woman A     They're so cool. [18:23] Woman B     I think I like them.
