    Yeah.

    It just flew right by.
[00:23] Jennifer
    The concert's not until 12,
    so we still have some time.
[00:26] Emma
    Let's all go around the cultural fair.
[00:31] Haruka
    So the opening act is Lanzhu-san, right?
[00:34] Setsuna
    Yes! Her popularity is skyrocketing
    in this short amount of time,
[00:38] Setsuna
    so we wanted to start
    things off with a bang.
[00:42] Lanzhu
    Leave it to me.
[00:47] Lanzhu
    It's finally happening.
[00:49] Ayumu
    Yeah.
[00:51] Lanzhu
    I've been watching your
    performances up until now.
[00:55] Lanzhu
    They were all great.
[00:57] Lanzhu
    But you aren't the star of the show today.
[01:01] Lanzhu
    That's me, Lanzhu Zhong.
[01:03] Lanzhu
    As I promised you all along,
[01:05] Lanzhu
    I'll show you what the
    ultimate solo school idol
[01:08] Lanzhu
    looks like at this School Idol Festival.
[01:12] Karin
    I look forward to that.

    I can't find it at all!
[06:01] Yu
    No matter how much I think about it...
[06:04] Yu
    I'm not feeling any thrill!
[06:08] Kanata
    Yeah, this is way worse
    than we anticipated.
[06:12] Shioriko
    She definitely needs a change of pace.
[06:21] Shizuku
    It's so good.

    Why did I have to come along?

    much advice about this.

    Talk to us.

    that you'll be singing at the fes
[07:17] Yu
    that almost didn't happen.

    So I want to make it the best ever.
[07:22] Yu
    But I'm trying to figure out where I can
    showcase how amazing each of you are...
SIGN    Ayumu | Emma
[07:29] Yu
    Or how can I make the fans happy?
[07:34] Yu
    And...
[07:36] Yu
    If this song is worthy of being proof
    that I belong to the School Idol Club
[07:41] Yu
    and the answer I promised Lanzhu-chan.
[07:44] Yu
    Trying to figure out if this song
    is all of those things at once...
[07:48] Yu
    made me lose confidence.
[07:51] Yu
    The more I thought about it, the
    more my head started spinning.
[07:56] Shizuku
    You're way too tense.
[08:00] Ai
    And you're thinking about this way too much.
[08:03] Kanata
    Well, it's not surprising.
[08:06] Shioriko
    This might be strange coming
    from me, but perhaps,
[08:09] Shioriko
    you don't need to think
    about this so much.
[08:13] Yu
    Huh?
[08:14] Ayumu
    Yeah. Just the fact that we're going
    to be singing a song you wrote for us
[08:19] Ayumu
    is already wonderful enough.
[08:22] Rina
    It makes me really happy that we get to
    sing a song you wrote for us, Yu-san.
[08:27] Kasumi
    We'll be on that stage singing it
    with all the confidence in the world.
[08:33] Yu
    I see.
[08:36] Yu
    In that case, if I can
    just write a song that'll
[08:41] Yu
    thrill the School Idol Club and fans...
[08:45] Yu
    If I can just write a song like that...
[08:47] Yu
    Everyone, thank you so much!

    soon, so just wait for me!

    It's not like I was counting
    on that thing anyway.
[10:01] Lanzhu
    I told you before, didn't
    I? I just want to give.
[10:06] Lanzhu
    I'm only getting up on that
    stage to prove that I can do it.
[10:13] Lanzhu
    That's the only way I know how to do this.

    Thank you.
[11:16] Lanzhu
    I had no idea that you wanted
    to be a school idol, as well.
[11:21] Shioriko
    Well...
[11:22] Lanzhu
    It's fine.
[11:24] Lanzhu
    I'm used to things like this.
[11:28] Lanzhu
    You're up next. I'm looking forward to it.
[11:38] Jennifer
    She's so aloof.
[11:40] Kasane
    She's definitely a solo idol.
[11:43] Rina
    Lanzhu-san's performance today was even
    more amazing than it was before.
[11:49] Karin
    Looks like the pressure is on.
[11:51] Uzuki
    Everyone.
[11:53] Satsuki
    You should probably get ready.

    You're right.

    What's the matter?
[12:20] Yu
    Mia-chan.
[12:21] Mia
    You mean Mia-senpai.
[12:26] Yu
    I was so thrilled when I saw
    Lanzhu-chan perform just now.
[12:33] Yu
    It's hard to put into words...
[12:36] Yu
    You could really feel "This is me"
    from her song, her dancing... everything.
[12:43] Yu
    At that moment, my heart was
    filled with Lanzhu-chan.
[12:51] Mia
    Well, Lanzhu is one of the
    best players in this game.
[12:55] Mia
    It's not just Lanzhu.
[12:57] Mia
    That goes for the other
    school idols as well.
[13:01] Mia
    They're putting everything
    they have onto that stage.
[13:04] Mia
    That's just how it is.
[13:07] Mia
    But we don't need to do that.
[13:12] Mia
    If we just make the songs people want to
    hear and they judge those, that's fine.
[13:20] Mia
    Your decision to make this
    song for the School Idol Club
[13:24] Mia
    definitely isn't wrong, Baby-chan.
[13:29] Mia
    I'm sure they'll all be happy.
[13:34] Yu
    I wonder... if that's true.
[13:40] Shizuku
    I wonder if Yu-senpai is okay.
[13:43] Ayumu
    I'm sure she'll be fine.
[13:45] Ayumu
    We should just do what we can.
[13:49] Girls
    Yeah!
[13:52] Yu
    It's true that everyone might still
    like the song the way it is right now,
[13:59] Yu
    but the thrill I'm feeling
    right now is more...
[14:04] Yu
    How do I put this...
[14:12] ---

    I... as a fan...
[14:28] ---
    Which wind am I supposed to take?
[14:30] Yu
    I wasn't just feeling this thrill from
    the school idols' performances and songs.
[14:33] ---
    It's something that I want to do,
    that I love to do (Over days)
