[00:03] ---
    We did it! We're going to the finals!
[00:05] ---
    --Hey! Rei!
[00:06] ---
    --Congratulations.
    --Hey! Rei!
[00:11] ---
    --I was watching intently...
    The reborn Sunny Peace!
    --Congratulations!
[00:12] ---
    --I was watching intently...
    The reborn Sunny Peace!
    --Thanks.
[00:14] ---
    It's Moon Tempest's turn next!
[00:17] ---
    Yeah.
[00:24] ---
    I feel heavy...
[00:26] ---
    Are you okay?
[00:28] ---
    I'm fine.
[00:32] ---
    Mana, are you okay?
[00:35] ---
    It's nothing.
[00:36] ---
    This is happening because Sakura
    stopped singing with Mana's voice.
[00:40] ---
    Makino...
[00:42] ---
    Sakura's been taking action solely
    based on the guidance of her heartbeat.
[00:48] ---
    Her heart used to be Mana's.
[00:50] ---
    Because the heart lived on,
    Mana has been able to exist like this.
[00:54] ---
    Makino, that's enough.
[00:57] ---
    But now, Sakura is singing with
    her own voice, with her own will.
[01:02] ---
    Mana's heart is rapidly
    turning into Sakura's heart.
[01:06] ---
    Then, if Sakura continues to sing
    with her own voice...
[01:13] ---
    I'm going to let Sakura know!
[01:16] ---
    Huh?
[01:18] ---
    Mr. Makino...
[01:20] ---
    I'm glad...
[01:22] ---
    You're still the Makino I know.
[01:24] ---
    But why?
[01:26] ---
    Sakura and Kotono have finally found
    their purpose and are moving forward.
[01:32] ---
    Everyone is trying to follow them, too.
[01:35] ---
    Makino wouldn't do anything
    to hinder them, never!
[01:40] ---
    But you're going to disappear, Mana!
[01:42] ---
    If you don't do anything,
    you're going to die!
[01:45] ---
    I'm already dead.
[01:49] ---
    You're not going to say anything to Kotono?
[01:53] ---
    I don't want to keep quiet like this.
[01:57] ---
    Mana, isn't it about time
    you talk to Kotono?
[02:00] ---
    What?
[02:01] ---
    No, I think you should.
[02:04] ---
    It's for Kotono's sake.
[02:05] ---
    There may not be much time left.
[02:09] ---
    Okay... You're right.
[02:12] ---
    I have to finish... my last assignment.
[02:17] ---
    I know it's hard to believe this
    coming out of the blue...
[02:21] ---
    But it's true. Please believe it.
[02:25] ---
    If it's true... Is my sister here right now?
[02:30] ---
    She's not here right now.
[02:32] ---
    She said she'd see you
    only if you wanted to.
[02:35] ---
    I see.
[02:37] ---
    Do you believe us?
[02:39] ---
    If it were the usual me,
    I think I'd never believe it.
[02:42] ---
    But I don't think you'd go out of your way
    to tell me a lie during this crucial time.
[02:47] ---
    Will you see her?
[02:49] ---
    --I won't.
    --What?
[02:50] ---
    But why?
[02:52] ---
    I can't right now. I'd rather see her
    after the Grand Prix.
[02:56] ---
    That's going to be too late!
[02:58] ---
    Too late?
[03:00] ---
    I meant... That seems too late
    when you can see her right away.
[03:05] ---
    Mana's finally made up her mind to see you.
[03:07] ---
    Will you see her?
[03:10] ---
    I've always chased after my sister's back.
[03:15] ---
    In order to fulfill the dream
    she couldn't achieve.
[03:20] ---
    When I entrusted my sister's song
    to Sakura, I started to feel lost.
[03:24] ---
    What's my reason for
    performing from here on out?
[03:28] ---
    But...
[03:29] ---
    I think I'm close to figuring it out!
[03:31] ---
    How I'm supposed to proceed
    as Kotono of Moon Tempest!
[03:36] ---
    If I find out what my sister
    thinks of all this...
[03:40] ---
    You would lose that?
[03:42] ---
    Regardless of whether she's
    affirmative or negative,
[03:45] ---
    I have a feeling it would end something.
[03:56] ---
    Kotono?
[03:58] ---
    Sakura...?
[04:05] ---
    I see. You knew about my sister, too.
[04:08] ---
    Yeah, I found out when I was told
    my heart belonged to Miss Mana.
[04:15] ---
    So Sakura, can you...
[04:17] ---
    Can you see her?
[04:19] ---
    No, I can't see her.
[04:22] ---
    But I thought I heard Miss Mana's
    voice through this heart.
[04:27] ---
    She told me to put in my all
    and sing the song only I can sing.
[04:32] ---
    After hearing Miss Mana's words,
    I felt that I needed to change.
[04:36] ---
    That I needed to take action based on my own
    will, not just relying on my heart's guidance.
[04:41] ---
    I was able to get this far
    because my sister disappeared.
[04:46] ---
    Miss Mana was saying the same thing.
[04:48] ---
    What?
[04:50] ---
    She said if she were to talk to you now,
    your tense focus would snap.
[04:56] ---
    She said that...?
[04:57] ---
    But even with that, Miss Mana said
    she wanted to see you, right?
[05:01] ---
    There must be a reason for it.
[05:05] ---
    Regardless, she's your sister! She must
    have a lot she wants to talk to you about.
[05:11] ---
    Is that not the case for you, Kotono?
[05:13] ---
    I...
[05:24] ---
    By a curious coincidence, you'll be facing
    an idol of Hoshimi Productions again,
[05:28] ---
    and among them Miss Mana Nagase's
    biological sister, Miss Kotono,
[05:31] ---
    for this upcoming semi-final battle.
[05:32] ---
    How does LizNoir feel about
    this strange quirk of fate?
[05:38] ---
    In that sense, I think we will be able to
    achieve a performance that won't disappoint.
[05:44] ---
    Nevertheless, there aren't any special feelings.
[05:46] ---
    No matter who we're up against,
    we give it our all on stage
[05:49] ---
    and aim for victory.
[05:52] ---
    "Reserved for Moon Tempest"
[05:53] ---
    I know, right?
[05:54] ---
    Where's Kotono?
[05:55] ---
    She said she had a matter to tend to...
[05:58] ---
    A matter?
[06:01] ---
    You're asking me what kind of
    idol Mana Nagase was?
[06:04] ---
    Yes.
[06:05] ---
    You're really asking me that as her sister?
[06:08] ---
    My sister was never home
    once she became an idol,
[06:12] ---
    so I don't know anything.
[06:14] ---
    You weren't interested in idols?
[06:16] ---
    If I had to say anything...
    I'd say I hated them.
[06:19] ---
    But you are one now.
[06:22] ---
    Are you doing this for Mana?
[06:25] ---
    At first, I was.
[06:27] ---
    I'm sure this sounds irritating
    to you, Miss Rio.
[06:30] ---
    My initial purpose was money.
[06:33] ---
    What?
[06:35] ---
    I wanted to take care of my mother.
[06:36] ---
    I didn't want to give up on the family business.
[06:39] ---
    To do that, becoming an idol was the option
    that seemed the most doable to me.
[06:43] ---
    I see...
[06:45] ---
    But with that kind of purpose,
    although my technique improved,
[06:48] ---
    I still wasn't able to move people's hearts.
[06:51] ---
    Aoi was the one who taught me
    about what I lacked.
[06:55] ---
    She was discovered by Mr. Saegusa,
    who was our manager back then.
[07:00] ---
    Mr. Saegusa...?
[07:01] ---
    I wanted to make our debut as soon as possible,
    to become popular as soon as possible...
[07:05] ---
    Aoi said it felt heavy watching me
    dance with those feelings.
[07:09] ---
    She had the right to say that because her
    dancing was light, free, and felt good.
[07:15] ---
    Then with Mr. Saegusa as our producer,
    we formed LizNoir.
[07:20] ---
    With a favorable start, busy days followed.
[07:23] ---
    But at one point, Mr. Saegusa quit
    the agency and had to leave us.
[07:30] ---
    After a while, he established
    Hoshimi Productions
[07:34] ---
    and met Mana Nagase.
[07:37] ---
    Of course I minded that.
[07:39] ---
    But Mana Nagase never showed
    any interest in us.
[07:44] ---
    It got on my nerves.
[07:45] ---
    I felt like I was being ignored.
[07:48] ---
    One time...
[07:53] ---
    It's annoying to admit, but I was
    moved listening to her sing.
[07:58] ---
    A performance that energized me.
[08:00] ---
    It made my feelings brighter and made me smile.
[08:03] ---
    I wanted to watch her forever.
[08:05] ---
    It was a performance that made me
    realize that I actually liked her.
[08:11] ---
    Watching her perform, I realized
    this is the power of idols.
[08:16] ---
    Why people come to like idols and support them.
[08:19] ---
    I felt I understood that for the first time.
[08:22] ---
    Mana Nagase is that kind of entity for me.
[08:26] ---
    That's why I want to win.
[08:28] ---
    If Mana Nagase is a true idol,
[08:31] ---
    by surpassing her, I'll be able
    to recognize myself as an idol.
[08:36] ---
    But my sister...
[08:38] ---
    Yes...
[08:39] ---
    That's why I'm going to win the competition
    where I was supposed to face her.
[08:43] ---
    I'll see the sight one of us
    should've seen three years ago.
[08:47] ---
    And then I'll ask myself...
[08:49] ---
    ...whether I've surpassed
    Mana Nagase or not.
[08:52] ---
    If I've become an idol who can move
    everyone's hearts and energize them.
[08:57] ---
    We are the same, after all.
[08:59] ---
    You've always been chasing after my sister.
[09:03] ---
    What I said at the press
    conference is half true.
[09:06] ---
    I have no interest in the fact that
    you're Mana Nagase's sister.
[09:10] ---
    But half of it is a lie.
[09:12] ---
    I'm probably fixated on Mana Nagase
    more than anyone else.
[09:16] ---
    What?
[09:18] ---
    Let's bring our genuine feelings
    to the stage on battle day.
[09:21] ---
    Song against song, let's compete
    with all our strength.
[09:25] ---
    Yes.
[09:28] ---
    Miss Rio!
[09:31] ---
    I'm sure my sister is watching!
[09:34] ---
    She's watching me and you, too, Miss Rio!
[09:38] ---
    I have a feeling she is...
[09:44] ---
    I'll believe that, for now.
[09:48] ---
    Idoly Pride.
[10:02] ---
    Sorry...
[10:03] ---
    Don't apologize.
[10:05] ---
    --No!
    --If this were the case...
[10:07] ---
    Don't say it!
[10:08] ---
    I wish I never had a sister!
[10:17] ---
    I'm sorry.
[10:23] ---
    Big Sister...
[10:41] ---
    "Rio Kanzaki of LizNoir...
    I feel a great energy from her.
    Wow, Mr. Saegusa discovered
    quite a talent... Jeez."
[10:50] ---
    She rejected me.
[10:52] ---
    Being told in the face like that is rough.
[10:56] ---
    But I did work hard writing the lyrics for her.
[10:59] ---
    I really want to sing this song
    for the finals performance.
[11:03] ---
    Tomorrow is Kotono's birthday.
[11:06] ---
    Even if she doesn't come see me,
    she's still my only dearest sister.
[11:12] ---
    I love you, Kotono.
[11:16] ---
    "Kotono's Birthday"
[11:18] ---
    "Birthday"
[11:23] ---
    Big Sister...
[11:32] ---
    Kotono?
[11:37] ---
    What do you think an idol is?
[11:39] ---
    You're asking a complicated question.
[11:42] ---
    What did my sister say?
[11:44] ---
    Don't know... I've never asked.
[11:47] ---
    Even though you worked with her?
[11:50] ---
    Why don't you ask her yourself?
[11:52] ---
    Is it not an illusion only you and Mei can see?
[11:55] ---
    That's what I thought in the beginning, too.
[11:57] ---
    But it's not.
[11:59] ---
    Why did she appear as a ghost?
[12:02] ---
    She says she wants to stand on
    the finals stage, but that's a joke.
[12:06] ---
    I bet she was worried about you, Kotono.
[12:09] ---
    --I don't think so.
    --Huh?
[12:12] ---
    If that were the case, wouldn't it
    make more sense if she appeared to me?
[12:15] ---
    True.
[12:16] ---
    Since this is my sister, I'm sure it's not
    for herself, but for somebody else.
[12:23] ---
    Somebody else?
[12:24] ---
    I asked her this a long time ago.
[12:27] ---
    "Is there somebody you like?"
[12:31] ---
    There is!
[12:31] ---
    What kind of person is he?
[12:33] ---
    He doesn't stand out.
    He's unreliable and a bit dull.
[12:37] ---
    Everything about him is so ordinary!
[12:40] ---
    But he's always willing to help those
    in need and to scold the bad people.
[12:46] ---
    He's that ordinary!
[12:48] ---
    It made sense to me.
[12:51] ---
    Would you like someone that ordinary?
[12:54] ---
    I can understand why my sister was befuddled.
[13:08] ---
    Kotono...?
[13:14] ---
    I'm thinking of talking to my sister.
[13:20] ---
    She can't converse with her
    without us interpreting.
[13:24] ---
    She said she's fine by herself.
[13:28] ---
    Big Sister, I have a lot to ask
    and apologize to you about.
[13:36] ---
    About the last night...
[13:38] ---
    Your thoughts around it and how you felt
    when you wrote that diary entry...
[13:44] ---
    But I've decided to not ask you anything.
[13:47] ---
    Because those are the things I have
    to find closure for by myself.
[13:52] ---
    I never understood what idols were or
    why you worked so frantically to be one.
[14:01] ---
    But now I understand.
[14:04] ---
    Going on stage, delivering songs
    to everyone, and seeing their joy...
[14:09] ---
    What a wonderful thing that is.
[14:12] ---
    That's why...
[14:15] ---
    That's why...
[14:17] ---
    I won't chase after you anymore.
[14:20] ---
    I don't want to stand on stage
    in lieu of you, either!
[14:25] ---
    Like you, Big Sister, I want
    to love idols even more
[14:31] ---
    and bring joy to far more people.
[14:35] ---
    I want to discover the idol I want
    to be for myself and move forward.
[14:43] ---
    Does this make you happy?
    Or maybe you're sad...
[14:47] ---
    But... You're listening to me, right?
    You're watching me...
[14:55] ---
    Big Sister...
[15:03] ---
    Sounds good to me.
[15:12] ---
    The A Block semi-final battle
[15:16] ---
    between Moon Tempest and
    LizNoir will begin momentarily.
[15:21] ---
    Watch LizNoir's performance very carefully.
[15:25] ---
    They'll definitely win, right?
[15:27] ---
    I wouldn't be so sure about that.
[15:29] ---
    What?!
[15:36] ---
    I'm looking forward to the finals performance.
[15:39] ---
    I have no desire to be friendly
    with an opponent.
[15:43] ---
    How could you be like that?
[15:46] ---
    Are you mocking us?
[15:48] ---
    I was just hoping to make it a fun performance.
[15:52] ---
    But... okay.
[15:54] ---
    Then, if I win the finals,
    come shake my hand first.
[15:58] ---
    What?
[15:59] ---
    Normally, I don't care about winning or losing.
[16:03] ---
    But that just now got on my nerves.
[16:05] ---
    I'm wanting to win for the first time.
[16:08] ---
    There have been many idols
    who declared that they'd defeat me.
[16:13] ---
    But I've never lost to anyone yet.
[16:15] ---
    Rio and I won't lose.
[16:18] ---
    We're the ones who are going to win.
[16:20] ---
    Be prepared, Mana Nagase.
[16:22] ---
    We'll make you taste your first failure.
[16:27] ---
    Then, shall we?
[16:30] ---
    Now, let's show them who we are.
[16:58] ---

    Will it be LizNoir, who made it
    to the finals last time?
[20:33] ---
    Or the freshly debuted new face,
    Moon Tempest?!
[20:36] ---
    And now, the fated results are in!
[20:40] ---
    "Moon Tempest"
[20:46] ---
    The finalist is...
[20:52] ---
    Moon Tempest!
[20:57] ---
    We did it, Suzu-nyan!
[21:03] ---
    I had a lot of fun.
[21:07] ---
    Me, too.
[21:09] ---
    So the finals is a battle between
    Hoshimi Productions idols.
[21:12] ---
    Didn't expect you all to grow this much.
[21:16] ---
    Miss Rio, Miss Aoi...
[21:33] ---
    Make it the best finals ever.
[21:35] ---
    Yes!
[21:39] ---
    Miss Rio!
[21:42] ---
    I heard my sister considered you her rival.
[21:46] ---
    There's no way.
[21:48] ---
    She pretended to act indifferent
    because she felt that you were her rival.
[21:52] ---
    She's just like you, Rio.
[21:57] ---
    If that's the case...
[21:58] ---
    ...I need to work hard
    and become a true idol.
[22:03] ---
    So I don't disappoint her.
[23:28] ---
    Mana...
[23:30] ---
    I'm okay.
[23:32] ---
    I won't disappear yet.
[23:34] ---
    Not until I see everyone
    stand on the finals stage!
