[01:54] Lanzhu
    Everyone! Thanks for coming today!
[01:59] Girls
    Lanzhu-chan!
[02:01] Mia
    We're not stopping here! Hang on tight!
[02:04] Girls
    Yay!
[02:06] Shioriko
    My name is Shioriko Mifune and I'm a
    first-year at Nijigasaki High School.
[02:09] Shioriko
    So the School Idol Club can continue to grow,
    we're going to be giving our all.
[02:15] Shioriko
    Please continue to support us.
[02:20] Crowd
    Yay!
[02:23] Crowd
    Lanzhu!
[02:24] Crowd
    Shioriko-chan!
[02:29] Emma
    Ayumu-chan should be back any minute.
[02:31] Lanzhu
    Let's welcome her back with a surprise.
[02:34] Setsuna
    This is a special party popper that
    Lanzhu-san and I crafted together!
[02:38] Kanata
    Ooh... Is that handmade?
[02:41] Mia
    That's way too big.
[02:43] Karin
    They're all so excited.
[02:45] Ai
    Well, it's been forever.
[02:47] Shizuku
    Well, if two weeks is "forever"...
[02:51] Yu
    It's Ayumu. She says her plane landed.
[02:55] Kasumi
    I'm so excited to see
    Ayumu-senpai's surprised face.
[02:59] Kasumi
    It's probably going to be quite the look.
[03:03] Rina
    Are you watching the
    video of the other day?
[03:06] Shioriko
    Yes. I was concerned about how
    everyone reacted to my MC part here.
[03:10] Kasumi
    That might have been a smidge too
    rigid for a concert MC.
[03:16] Shioriko
    I chose it very carefully,
    from a hundred options.
[03:20] Kasumi
    A hundred?!
[03:24] Shioriko
    Perhaps I'm not suited to be a school idol.
[03:28] Kasumi & Rina
    Huh?
[03:29] Kasumi
    You're thinking way too hard about this.
[03:32] Yu
    Ayumu said she managed to get out first.
[03:35] Kasumi
    The time has arrived!
[03:36] Yu
    Let's go!
[03:44] Setsuna
    She's here!
[03:46] Setsuna
    Ready, and...
[03:49] All
    Welcome home!
[03:54] Ayumu
    Huh? Huh?!
[03:56] Shizuku
    H-Huh?
[03:58] Rina
    That's the wrong person.
[04:00] Ayumu
    Are you okay?
[04:01] Setsuna & Lanzhu
    W-We're sorry!
[04:03] Isla
    No problem.
[04:05] Yu
    Wait, are you the girl
    who sent Ayumu the email?
[04:09] Ayumu
    This is Isla-chan.
[04:11] Isla
    Nice to meet you. I came to Japan
    because I want to become a school idol.
[04:16] All
    What?!

SIGN    Love Live!
[04:27] Yu
    Okay, let's try this again.
[04:29] All
    Welcome home! And welcome, Isla-san!
[04:34] Isla
    I'm still studying Japanese,
    but it's nice to meet you all.
[04:39] Lanzhu
    We saw a video of your mini concert in London.
[04:42] Setsuna
    You were adorable!
[04:43] Ayumu
    Thanks.
[04:44] Ai
    It looks like it went great!
[04:47] Isla
    It was a lot of fun!
[04:49] Emma
    I poured some black tea.
    Let's all have some together.
[04:52] Kanata
    Come on over. Have a seat, Isla-chan.
[04:55] Isla
    Thank you very much.
[04:57] Shioriko
    I heard that there was a short-term exchange
    student from London coming here,
[05:02] Shioriko
    but I didn't know it was someone
    who wants to become a school idol.
[05:05] Yu
    There were two girls in the picture
    you sent me, weren't there?
[05:08] Isla
    Well, I was the only one who
    wanted to become a school idol.
[05:13] Isla
    I'm so glad to meet the members
    of the School Idol Club.
[05:17] Isla
    I won't be here for very long,
    but thank you for having me.
[05:20] Yu
    Glad to have you!
[05:22] Shioriko
    As the student council president,
    I'll do everything I can to support you.
[05:26] Kasumi
    As the world's cutest ever, Kasumin will
[05:28] Kasumi
    teach you everything you need
    to know to become an idol!
[05:31] Kasumi
    First, we'll start off with
    how to make delicious buns!
[05:35] Isla
    Ah, buns! I still have a lot to learn,
     so please show me the way!
[05:40] Mia
    Er, I'm pretty sure buns have
    nothing to do with this.
[05:42] Ai
    You're so earnest, Isla-chi!
[05:45] Lanzhu
    She sort of reminds me of you, Shioriko.
[05:49] Shioriko
    Does she?
[05:51] Yu
    But you only get to be here for two weeks?
[05:54] Yu
    Since you're here, I'd love for you to
    experience various things as a school idol.
[06:00] Setsuna
    Well, leave that to me!

SIGN    School Idol
SIGN    Experience Project!
[06:04] Setsuna
    I'll make full use of my knowledge and
    passion and make sure Isla-san is satisfied!
[06:10] Shizuku
    Oh, I'd like to think of some things, too.
[06:12] Rina
    Me, too.
[06:14] Kanata
    Looks like we'll come up with a lot of ideas.
[06:17] Ayumu
    Okay, let's all have fun with Isla-chan.

    Yeah!

[06:23] Yu
    First, let's go around all
    the school idol hot spots.
[06:27] Yu
    We'll lead you around today.
[06:30] Isla
    Thank you very much.
[06:31] Yu
    There are a lot of school idol meccas,
    but the one you absolutely have to go to is...
[06:37] Yu
    Here! Akihabara!
[06:39] Yu
    There are School Idol Clubs
    all around this area.
[06:43] Yu
    Out of those...
[06:45] Yu
    UTX is a very famous school for school idols!
[06:49] Isla
    Wow!
[06:53] Ayumu
    What's the matter?
SIGN    Numazu
[06:55] ---
    Were you curious about
    that? Let's take a look.

    Apparently this bread is called Noppopan.
[07:08] Yu
    This is so yummy.
[07:10] Rina
    Yeah.
[07:12] Rina
    Apparently, girls who perform at the
    Love Live come here often.
[07:17] Ai
    Since we're here,
     let's pay our respects, too!
[07:25] Rina
    What did you wish for, Ai-san?
[07:28] Ai
    That we all get to continue
    having fun as school idols!

[07:41] Ayumu
    What? We're here to experience things
    as school idols, not maids, right?
[07:46] Yu
    Well, they're both able to cheer
    up people who've come to see them.
[07:50] Yu
    It might just teach us something.
[07:53] Rina
    She's got a point.
[07:55] Isla
    In that case, I'd like to try it out.
[07:57] Ayumu
    Huh? Oh, fine...
[08:00] Yu
    Yay!
[08:01] Yu
    I can't wait!
[08:03] Ayumu
    You'll be doing this,
    too, won't you, Yu-chan?
[08:05] Yu
    Huh? No, I...
[08:07] Ai
    Let's go!
[08:09] Yu
    W-Wait!
[08:10] Employee
    I'm taking the picture!
[08:17] Setsuna
    We're next up!
[08:21] Isla
    Fantastic! Amazing!
[08:24] Isla
    There's so much merch here that
    I've never seen in London!
[08:27] Shizuku
    They do have quite the lineup.
[08:29] Setsuna
    The number of school
    idols just keeps growing.
[08:33] Emma
    Everyone, looks like Lanzhu-chan
    and the others are ready.
[08:37] Emma
    While you're here, we thought you should
    experience some Japanese culture, too.
[08:43] Shizuku
    It's here!
[08:49] Lanzhu
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[08:53] Lanzhu
    This is all ours today!
[08:55] Kanata
    The food's ready!
[08:57] Emma
    Just what I've been waiting for!
[08:59] Setsuna
    When you think of Japanese
    houseboats, of course...
[09:03] Kanata
    You think of a feast.
[09:13] Karin
    Today, we'll lead you around.
[09:16] Kasumi
    This place is called Harajuku and is filled
    with all sorts of cuteness from Japan!
[09:21] Karin
    Being fashionable is
    important as an idol, too.
[09:24] Mia
    Apparently, there are a lot of
    yummy sweets shops, so let's eat!
[09:28] Kasumi
    Ooh, good idea.
[09:30] Shioriko
    No, you two. This is still
    part of a school activity.
[09:35] Shioriko
    No sweets allowed.
[09:37] Kasumi
    Aw...
[09:38] Mia
    But Rina and Emma mentioned that
    they had bread and tempura!
[09:42] Kasumi
    No fair!
[09:45] Isla
    Um... If you're all here,
    won't your fans swarm you?
[09:52] Kasumi
    You're way too worried!
[09:54] Kasumi
    I mean, even if I am the epitome of cuteness,
[09:58] Kasumi
    we're really not that popular!
[09:59] Girl A
    Hey, isn't that...
[10:01] Girl B
    That's Karin Asaka-san, right?
[10:03] Girl A
    Can we get a picture with you?
[10:05] Karin
    Yes.
[10:07] Kasumi
    Grr...
[10:08] Mia
    I mean, Karin works as a model,
    too. Shouldn't be that surprising.
[10:12] Kasumi
    But, but, I'm still frustrated!
[10:14] Girl C
    Oh, it's Kasumin!
[10:16] Girl D
    And Mia Taylor, too!
[10:18] Girl E
    That's hilarious.
[10:20] Girl C
    Could I get your autograph?
[10:22] Girl E
    Could you shake my hand?
[10:22] Shioriko
    This way, Isla-san.
[10:24] Isla
    Okay.
[10:24] Kasumi
    Sure, of course!
[10:28] Girl F
    Um...
[10:29] Girl F
    You're Shioriko-san, right?
[10:31] Girl G
    Your outfit at the concert the other
    day was super cute! It was the best!
[10:35] Shioriko
    Th-Thank you for such valuable input.
[10:39] Shioriko
    Your comments will help shape our
    future school idol activities.
[10:48] Girls
    Right!
SIGN    CHARA
[10:50] Yu
    How was everything, Isla-chan?
[10:52] Isla
    I learned so much!
[10:55] Isla
    But I feel sort of bad that you
    all have done so much for me.
[11:00] Kanata
    What are you talking about?
[11:02] Ai
    We're super happy!
[11:04] Ai
    You actually saw us perform and
[11:06] Ai
    that made you decide that you want
    to be a school idol, Isla-chi!
[11:10] Rina
    So we want to do everything we can.
[11:12] Isla
    Everyone...
[11:14] Setsuna
    Not to mention, we're not done yet.
[11:17] Isla
    Huh?
[11:18] Emma
    We haven't actually done
    any school idol activities.
[11:22] Ayumu
    For the remaining days, let's practice
    every day and hold a mini concert.
[11:28] Isla
    Me, too?
[11:30] Yu
    But of course!
[11:33] Isla
    Yay!
[11:34] Lanzhu
    What are we going to do about the venue?
[11:36] Shizuku
    Why don't we ask the Garden Theater?
[11:40] Shioriko
    I think it might be quite difficult to
    perform outside of our school this time.
[11:45] Ai
    What?! But it'd be way better if we were
    performing in front of a ton of people!
[11:49] Shioriko
    I mentioned this before, but this
    is supposed to be a school activity.
[11:53] Kasumi
    But I heard that Lanzhu-senpai went all
    out and welcomed her on a houseboat!
[11:57] Shioriko
    And I was just thinking about having her
    write a formal apology regarding that.
[12:01] Lanzhu
    Again?!
[12:07] Karin
    One, two, three, four...
[12:10] Kanata
    You've got this.
[12:13] Girls
    So cute!
[12:15] Kasumi
    It's everyone's idol, Kasumin!
[12:18] Girls
    Kasumin!
[12:20] Kasumi
    Yay! Thank you!
[12:32] Shioriko
    What's the matter?
[12:36] Ayumu
    I was just thinking this was a bit nostalgic.
[12:38] Ayumu
    This was where everything began for me.
[12:42] Shioriko
    This is the place where Setsuna-san held
    a performance last spring, isn't it?
[12:46] Ayumu
    Yup. So much has happened since
    I became a school idol...
[12:51] Ayumu
    but it's the surprise and admiration
     I felt in that moment
[12:54] Ayumu
    that made me who I am right now.
[12:57] Shioriko
    So it's similar to how I felt
    when I saw my sister perform.
[13:04] Ayumu
    Shioriko-chan, has our venue for
    the mini concert been decided?
[13:08] Shioriko
    The day before Isla-san goes back to London,
    we'll be able to use the auditorium.
[13:13] Ayumu
    I see. That's great.
[13:16] Ayumu
    When I first met Isla-chan, she actually
    reminded me of you, Shioriko-chan.
[13:24] Ayumu
    She's so earnest and has a
    good head on her shoulders.
[13:27] Ayumu
    She actually probably took care
    of me while I was in London.
[13:32] Shioriko
    We're nothing alike.
[13:36] Shioriko
    Isla-san is far cuter and much more charming.
[13:41] Shioriko
    I'm so rigid and I can't seem
    to connect with the fans,
[13:45] Shioriko
    but there's nothing I can
    do about my personality.
[13:49] Shioriko
    This is just who I am.
[13:53] Ayumu
    That's not true. Don't worry about it.
[13:56] Shioriko
    I'm sorry. I didn't mean anything strange by it.
[13:59] Shioriko
    Let's get back to practice.
[14:01] Ayumu
    Yeah.
[14:04] Isla
    Yup!
[14:05] Isla
    They're all nice. It's fun here.
[14:07] Penelope
    Hey, Isla. I still think...
[14:10] Isla
    Penelope, it's fine.
     I'm glad I came to Japan.
[14:15] Penelope
    I'm looking forward to
    watching the stream tomorrow.
[14:19] Isla
    Thanks.
SIGN    School Idol Club Mini Concert
[14:40] All
    Great job, everyone!
[14:43] Setsuna
    You were lovely, Isla-san!
[14:45] Ai
    Yup, yup!
[14:46] Ayumu
    You're going home tomorrow, aren't you?
[14:48] Yu
    I'm sad that we won't be able to
    see you off because of classes,
[14:51] Yu
    but get plenty of rest tonight.
[14:53] Isla
    The fact that I got to sing with Ayumu-san,
    whom I admire so much, felt like a dream.
[14:58] Shizuku
    Please do your best back in London.
[15:02] Isla
    Yes. Thank you very much.
[15:05] Kanata
    Girls, they're done!
[15:08] Kanata
    Kanata-chan's special TOKIMEKI mini parfaits!
[15:12] Isla
    They look delicious!
[15:13] Emma
    Let's eat lots!
[15:17] Ayumu
    Hello, Shioriko-chan?
[15:20] Shioriko
    Ayumu-san. What's the matter?
[15:22] Ayumu
    It's about Isla-chan...
[15:24] Ayumu
    There's something I've been concerned about
[15:26] Ayumu
    ever since I was in London.
[15:33] Shioriko
    Really?
[15:36] Shioriko
    I see.
[15:38] Shioriko
    Thank you for your time.
[15:46] Vice President
    What's the matter, President?
[15:48] Shioriko
    Due to reasons, I will
    be taking my leave early!
[15:50] Vice President
    Huh?
[15:53] Vice President
    President?
[15:55] Shioriko
    Ayumu-san, I... We may have been wrong!
[16:00] Shioriko
    We forgot to tell her
    the most important thing!
[16:04] Ayumu
    But Isla-chan already...
[16:06] Shioriko
    We still have time!
[16:07] Ayumu
    What are we going to do?
[16:09] Shioriko
    I'll send you a map.
[16:14] Mia
    I see.
[16:15] Mia
    We're all going to have to think
    up reasons to leave school early.
[16:24] Shioriko
    Isla-san!
[16:26] Isla
    Mifune-san?
[16:29] Shioriko
    I heard... That your request to start
    a School Idol Club was declined.
[16:36] Shioriko
    Ayumu-san was trying
[16:38] Shioriko
    to figure out how she could help
    even after coming back to Japan.
[16:42] Shioriko
    I wanted to stay in contact with
    you not only through our schools,
[16:45] Shioriko
    but through the club,
[16:47] Shioriko
    so I got permission to contact your school.
[16:50] Shioriko
    And then...
[16:53] Shioriko
    Were you... possibly thinking of
    giving up being a school idol?
[17:01] Isla
    Yes.
[17:03] Isla
    This is the end of me being a school idol.
[17:08] Isla
    My school doesn't have clubs the
    same way Japanese schools do,
[17:14] Isla
    and their understanding of school
    idols is completely different.
[17:18] Isla
    I want to do this with my
    friends who support me,
[17:21] Isla
    so I talked to my school many times.
[17:25] Isla
    But there was nothing I could do.
[17:28] Isla
    I guess this is just my limit.
[17:33] Isla
    After all of you treated me so kindly...
[17:36] Isla
    I'm sorry.
[17:40] Shioriko
    Isla-san...
[17:43] Shioriko
    You actually are very much like me.
[17:47] Shioriko
    You decide that there are things you just
    can't do and you set limits for yourself.
[17:52] Shioriko
    You still have some time
    before your flight, right?
[17:55] Shioriko
    Could you come with me for a little while?
[17:59] Isla
    What's this place?
[18:01] Shioriko
    Ayumu-san, who inspired you,
     got her start right here.
[18:06] Shizuku
    This was also the place
    where we started our club again.
[18:10] Isla
    Huh?
[18:11] Setsuna
    At first, the club didn't go well at all.
[18:16] Setsuna
    All because I was selfish...
[18:18] Kanata
    Come on, now. Stop worrying about the past.
[18:22] Kasumi
    That's right.
[18:23] Kasumi
    We were all a bit selfish, after all.
[18:26] Emma
    But that's when Ayumu-chan and Yu-chan
    fell in love with school idols.
[18:32] Karin
    And then it all began again.
[18:34] Mia
    I heard what's going on.
[18:36] Lanzhu
    There are always some things that
    just don't go how you planned.
[18:40] Ayumu
    I had trouble on my own, too.
[18:43] Rina
    Yeah.
[18:44] Yu
    But we weren't alone.
[18:47] Ayumu
    And you're not alone either,
    are you, Isla-chan?
[18:55] Isla
    Yes, you're right. I also
[18:59] Isla
    have someone who'll do this with me.
[19:02] Shioriko
    We're here for you, too.
[19:05] Isla
    Right...
[19:07] Shioriko
    I know that I sounded like I
    had everything figured out,
[19:10] Shioriko
    but the truth is I've been
    concerned this whole time.
[19:13] Shioriko
    I was wondering how I could
    remedy my rigid personality.
[19:17] Lanzhu
    What are you talking about?
[19:19] Mia
    I wouldn't call a student council
    president who's skipping class rigid.
[19:22] Shioriko
    B-But this is...
[19:24] Ayumu
    Shioriko-chan, you're also
[19:26] Ayumu
    a lovely school idol who's always
    working hard for others.
[19:32] Shioriko
    Thank you... very much.
[19:35] Shioriko
    I've decided that I'm going to
    stop setting limits for myself.
[19:48] Shioriko
    So...
[19:50] Shioriko
    Let's have as much fun as possible!
[22:18] Isla
    Penelope?
[22:19] Penelope
    Hey, Isla. I still think...
[22:22] Isla
    Let's do this together!
[22:24] Isla
    I can do this because you're here for me!
[22:29] Penelope
    For sure!
[22:30] Isla
    Thanks!
[22:35] Lanzhu
    Looks like everything went well.
[22:37] Shioriko
    Thank you very much, everyone.
[22:40] Kanata
    What are you going to do
    after this, President?
[22:43] Shioriko
    Since we're all here,
    let's see her off to the airport.
[22:47] Mia
    Ah, you actually get it.
[22:49] Shioriko
    Let's all write formal
    apologies another time.
[22:52] Lanzhu
    What? All of us?
[22:53] Kasumi
    Couldn't you do something about that with
    your student council president powers?
[22:57] Shioriko
    I have no such powers.
[22:59] Shioriko
    And don't forget the apology
    for the houseboat, Lanzhu.
[23:03] Lanzhu
    What?!
[23:04] Lanzhu
    No way!
[24:41] Lanzhu
    Aiyah! There's just no end to this!
[24:45] Lanzhu
    Shioriko, help me!
[24:47] Shioriko
    You need to take this seriously.
[24:50] Shioriko
    You have what it takes to write
    formal apologies, Lanzhu.
[24:53] Lanzhu
    What?
[24:55] Shioriko
    I'm kidding.
[24:56] Lanzhu
    Jeez...
[24:59] Mia
    Shioriko's adorable.
[25:01] Kasumi
    Though Shioko is cute when she's cold, too.
[25:04] Yu
    Look, everyone!
[25:06] Yu
    Looks like Isla-chan upped a video!
[25:12] Isla
    Hi! My name is Isla.
[25:15] Isla
    I'm not in a school club,
[25:16] Isla
    but I'm going to be a school idol
    in London from today.
[25:22] Shioriko
    I guess we can't just sit around either.
[25:25] Ayumu
    Yup!
