    My name is Kanon Shibuya!
[00:39] ---
    My birthday is May 1st.
[00:41] ---
    I live with my dad, mom, little sister,
[00:43] ---
    and a Japanese scops owl named Roundy!
[00:45] ---
    My favorite foods are baked apples,
    tomatoes, and Hamburg steak!
[00:49] ---
    My dream is to get into the music program
    at Yuigaoka Girls' High School...
[00:55] ---
    ...and make everyone smile with my song!
[00:59] ---
    I-I'm from Gaien West Middle School...
    My name is Kanon Shibuya.
[01:03] ---
    All right. Let's have you sing your song.
[01:05] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am...
[01:16] ---
    Shibuya-san?
[01:19] ---
    Shibuya-san?!
[01:25] ---
    This sucks!
[01:27] ---
    This wouldn't be so hard if I could
    actually sing when it mattered.
[01:29] ---
    Sis!
[01:30] ---
    Sis!
[01:33] ---
    Come on! If you're up here, answer me!
[01:35] ---
    Meh.
[01:36] ---
    What kind of response is that?!
[01:38] ---
    Today's your entrance ceremony, isn't it?!
    You're going to be late!
[01:40] ---
    Yeah, yeah.
[01:41] ---
    Hurry up!
[01:43] ---
    Yup.
[01:48] ---
    I'm leaving.
[01:49] ---
    Can I get a "good morning"?
[01:52] ---
    Morning.
[01:52] ---
    No breakfast?
[01:54] ---
    Nope.
[01:58] ---
    I'll see you later, Roundy.
[02:02] ---
    Kanon!
[02:04] ---
    You look great in that uniform.
[02:07] ---
    I don't.
[02:11] ---
    Is she still upset about
    not getting accepted?
[02:13] ---
    She's sensitive.
[02:16] ---
    Okay.
[02:25] ---
    Now I won't have to hear anything.
[03:15] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[03:16] ---
    Morning.
[03:18] ---
    Spring break just flew by, huh?
[03:20] ---
    Really? I couldn't wait
    to go to Yuigaoka myself.
[03:26] ---
    Me, too!
[03:28] ---
    Man, everyone who gets into
    the music program is amazing.
[03:31] ---
    And you look great in those uniforms, too.
[03:34] ---
    Thanks! You do, too, Kanon-chan!
[03:35] ---
    The general curriculum
    uniforms are cute, too!
[03:37] ---
    Y-You think so?
[03:39] ---
    It suits you!
[03:41] ---
    Sorry! I didn't mean anything by it!
[03:44] ---
    Oh, don't even worry about it.
    What can ya do?
[03:47] ---
    I'm not even worried about it anymore.
[03:48] ---
    Not to mention the general curriculum
    should be less stressful.
[03:52] ---
    I never thought you wouldn't
    get into the music program...
[03:55] ---
    I've always loved
    your singing, Kanon-chan.
[04:00] ---
    Oh. That cat's been coming by
    my place a lot lately. Well, bye!
[04:07] ---
    Thanks.

    "This Yet Unknown Feeling"
[05:01] ---
    I have no trouble singing at all
    when it doesn't matter.
[05:06] ---
    Magnificent!
[05:08] ---
    Wh-What?!
[05:09] ---
    Your voice is like
    a gift from the heavens!
[05:11] ---
    Now that I've heard your voice...
[05:12] ---
    Wait, Chinese?!
[05:14] ---
    Please, sing with me!
[05:19] ---
    As school idols!
[05:22] ---
    You're way too close!
[05:24] ---
    Ni hao! Xiè xiè! Xiǎolóngbāo! Zàijiàn!
[05:27] ---
    She's so scary!
[05:29] ---
    Please wait!
[05:34] ---
    Huh? Wha?
[05:36] ---
    Is she an exchange student?
    All because I decided to sing!
[05:40] ---
    What are you doing?
[05:42] ---
    Chi-chan!
[05:43] ---
    Heyo.
[05:44] ---
    Some weird girl's after me.
[05:47] ---
    Huh? I don't see anyone.
[05:49] ---
    Thank goodness.
[05:51] ---
    Chi-chan, you look great
    in the music program uniform.
[05:55] ---
    You got in, so make sure
    you do your best with dancing.
[05:59] ---
    Yeah. You're still singing, too, right?
[06:03] ---
    Me? I...
[06:06] ---
    "1st Entrance Ceremony"
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School"
[06:07] ---
    I thought I'd try something new!
[06:10] ---
    Remember? I told you
    before our entrance exams.
[06:13] ---
    If I didn't make it, that was
    going to be it. That I was giving up.
[06:18] ---
    But...
[06:19] ---
    I still want to hear you sing, Kanon-chan.
[06:26] ---
    So, hey. I'm starting a part-time job
    at a takoyaki place today.
[06:29] ---
    Come visit me if you can.
[06:33] ---
    It brings me great joy
    to welcome all of you
[06:38] ---
    as the very first class at our school.
[06:40] ---
    I'm sure that many of you are aware
[06:43] ---
    that this school used to be
    Jingu Music School.
[06:47] ---
    I hope that we can continue
    the long tradition of music here,
[06:50] ---
    especially with our music students,
[06:53] ---
    and that you will all brilliantly
    take flight someday.
[06:56] ---
    I'm from Gaien West Middle School.
    My name is Kanon Shibuya. Um...
[07:02] ---
    The girl with the magnificent voice...
[07:05] ---
    M-My dream is to own a cat someday...
[07:09] ---
    I'm Sumire Heanna. Pleasure.
[07:12] ---
    It's nice to meet you!
    I've come from Shanghai!
[07:15] ---
    My name is Keke Tang!
    My mother is Japanese!
[07:18] ---
    By the way, are any of you
    interested in school idols?
[07:23] ---
    I would love to be school idols
    with all of you!
[07:29] ---
    Huh? Girl with the magnificent voice?
[07:33] ---
    Girl with the magnificent voice?
[07:36] ---
    I guess she's in my class.
    This is gonna be rough.

    I want to be a school idol!
[08:21] ---
    I want to be a school idol with you!
[08:23] ---
    I have no idea what you're saying!
[08:25] ---
    Oh, excuse me. When I get excited,
    I forget to speak Japanese.
[08:31] ---
    It's nice to meet you.
    I'm Keke. Keke Tang.
[08:36] ---
    I'm... Kanon Shibuya.
[08:38] ---
    Kanon-san!
[08:39] ---
    Yes?
[08:40] ---
    Your singing is so magnificent!
    And so, would you...
[08:40] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[08:45] ---
    ...like to be school idols with me?
[08:48] ---
    School idols? Like those idols...
    but at school?
[08:52] ---
    I came to Japan because
    I wanted to become a school idol!
[08:56] ---
    Your singing is magnificent, Kanon-san!
[08:58] ---
    So please! Let's be school idols together!
[09:03] ---
    Sorry, I'm gonna pass.
[09:05] ---
    But why?
[09:07] ---
    I'm not cut out for it.
[09:09] ---
    That's not true. Anyone can
    become a school idol.
[09:13] ---
    And you're cute, Kanon-san.
[09:15] ---
    --Huh?
    --You're very cute.
[09:17] ---
    I-I don't think I'm... cute.
[09:20] ---
    You love singing, don't you?
[09:27] ---
    I don't hate it...
[09:28] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[09:28] ---
    I know you love it! I can tell!
[09:31] ---
    So let's do this together!
[09:34] ---
    Please use your magnificent voice
    and become a school idol with me!
[09:37] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[09:38] ---
    Are you the one handing out these fliers?
[09:44] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[09:44] ---
    Who gave you permission to hand them out?
    Did you ask the director?
[09:49] ---
    Oh... I'm sorry...
[09:51] ---
    I just wanted to become a school idol...
[09:56] ---
    A school idol?
[09:57] ---
    Is that not allowed?
[09:59] ---
    I heard that this school was very
    passionate about music. That's why I--
[10:03] ---
    It's because we're so
    passionate about music
[10:05] ---
    that we can't just allow you
    to run around doing this.
[10:08] ---
    Hey, hang on.
[10:09] ---
    Do you really have to say it like that?
[10:12] ---
    She just came here from overseas.
[10:15] ---
    Who are you? Are you also
    involved with this student?
[10:18] ---
    Involved? I mean...
    I guess I can't say that I'm not...?
[10:23] ---
    In that case, I'll tell you, as well.
[10:25] ---
    Music is extremely
    important at our school.
[10:29] ---
    So I ask that you refrain from doing
    such frivolous things without permission.
[10:33] ---
    How do you know she's being frivolous?
[10:36] ---
    You need to actually explain
    why school idols aren't allowed.
[10:40] ---
    You shouldn't just yell at her like that,
    saying they're bad.
[10:45] ---
    It's because they're not worthy.
[10:46] ---
    Not worthy? What?
    How are school idols not worthy?
[10:50] ---
    They would not bring
    any merit to our school.
[10:53] ---
    How can you be so sure of that?!
[10:57] ---
    What about you?
[10:59] ---
    Do you also want to be a school idol?
[11:05] ---
    I...
[11:09] ---
    Anyway, please go home for the day.
[11:12] ---
    Make sure you don't get in the way
    of the music students.
[11:17] ---
    Kanon-san, thank you.
[11:19] ---
    No, don't even worry about it.
[11:21] ---
    I actually didn't get into
    the music program.
[11:26] ---
    Even though I love to sing. I guess I just
    don't have the talent for it.
[11:32] ---
    So it's all over. No more singing for me.
[11:38] ---
    Kanon-san!
[11:40] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[11:44] ---
    Is it really over though?
[11:46] ---
    Huh?
[11:48] ---
    Is there ever an end to doing your best
    for something that you love?
[11:58] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[12:02] ---
    Here you go.
[12:07] ---
    Cocoa!
[12:12] ---
    The chocolate is upping me warm.
[12:14] ---
    You got that backwards...
[12:14] ---
    Just shoo already.
[12:16] ---
    Fine.
[12:18] ---
    So, hey... I really don't think
    I'm cut out to be an idol.
[12:23] ---
    That's not true! Anyone can
    become a school idol!
[12:26] ---
    --Idol?!
    --You?!
[12:28] ---
    Shut up! Quit eavesdropping!
[12:30] ---
    Your singing voice is
    magnificent, Kanon-san!
[12:33] ---
    When I met you this morning,
    I knew you were the one!
[12:37] ---
    You can tell just by looking at me,
    can't you? I'm not idol material.
[12:41] ---
    That's not true!
    You're very cute, Kanon-san!
[12:44] ---
    --Cute?!
    --Her?!
[12:46] ---
    For crying out loud, stop eavesdropping!
[12:50] ---
    Can I ask you something?
[12:54] ---
    No singing?
[12:55] ---
    You know,
[12:56] ---
    there are bands and groups where people
    other than the vocalists don't sing.
[13:00] ---
    Maybe something like that.
[13:01] ---
    Well, groups like that do exist...
[13:05] ---
    Do you not want to sing, Kanon-san?
[13:09] ---
    It's not that I don't want to sing...
    It's more I can't?
[13:12] ---
    But you were. With your magnificent voice.
[13:15] ---
    Well, I can sing in those situations...
[13:22] ---
    Okay, fine. I guess I have to tell you.
[13:25] ---
    When it really comes
    down to it, I can't sing.
[13:29] ---
    My voice just won't come out.
[13:31] ---
    But...
[13:34] ---
    The first time was in grade school.
[13:55] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[13:56] ---
    The song started!
[14:03] ---
    --Kanon-chan!
    --Kanon-chan!
[14:04] ---
    --Are you okay?!
    --Kanon-chan!
[14:06] ---
    Ever since, my voice won't come out
    when it really matters.
[14:11] ---
    I was in choir in middle school,
[14:13] ---
    but I couldn't do any competitions.
[14:15] ---
    And when I tried to
    apply for this school...
[14:19] ---
    Even though you love singing?
[14:23] ---
    Yup, even though I love singing.
[14:26] ---
    I'm so sorry. I had no idea and I...
[14:30] ---
    No, don't worry about it.
[14:32] ---
    But...
[14:32] ---
    I'm going to help you out, Keke-chan.
[14:35] ---
    I want to help.
[14:36] ---
    So if I can find anyone that seems like
    they're interested in school idols,
[14:40] ---
    I'll let you know.
[14:41] ---
    Really?
[14:42] ---
    Of course!
[14:43] ---
    Because I love singing!
[14:47] ---
    Kanon-san...
[14:50] ---
    I'll start looking tomorrow.
[14:52] ---
    If there's anything you
    don't understand, let me know.
[14:55] ---
    I'll help you out any way I can.
[14:57] ---
    Okay...
[15:00] ---
    School idols?
[15:02] ---
    Yeah. I'm trying to find people
    that might be interested.
[15:06] ---
    It's totally fine to look...
[15:09] ---
    But I'm not sure you'll find anyone
    in our music program.
[15:12] ---
    Because anyone in our music program...
[15:13] ---
    Be it singers, people who
    play instruments, or dancers...
[15:16] ---
    They all concentrate on their one thing,
    so they'd prioritize that.
[15:22] ---
    I see...
[15:23] ---
    Not to mention, there's a bunch of people
    who don't like school idols.
[15:27] ---
    Especially Hazuki-san,
    who says they don't belong at our school.
[15:31] ---
    Hazuki... Wait, does she have
    a ponytail like this?
[15:35] ---
    You know her?
[15:37] ---
    She's apparently the daughter
    of Hana Hazuki,
[15:40] ---
    the person who established our school.
[15:42] ---
    I see...
[16:01] ---
    That voice...
[16:08] ---
    I'm home.
[16:09] ---
    Oh.
[16:10] ---
    Did you go to your new friend's place?
[16:13] ---
    No, I went to see Chi-chan.
[16:15] ---
    Ah, I heard she's been
    working hard with dance.
[16:20] ---
    Here, this is for everyone.
[16:37] ---
    School idols, huh?
[16:39] ---
    Nanami-chan was a no...
[16:40] ---
    Sorry, I'm really terrible at singing.
[16:43] ---
    Yae-chan is also a no...
[16:45] ---
    I have something else I want to do.
[16:47] ---
    A nope from Kokono-chan, too...
[16:53] ---
    I see.
[16:55] ---
    I had no luck either.
[16:57] ---
    But I haven't gone around
    to the other classes yet.
[17:00] ---
    There might be someone in
    the music program that'd be interested.
[17:03] ---
    But...
[17:08] ---
    It's nothing.
[17:10] ---
    Right?
[17:11] ---
    Yeah.
[17:13] ---
    Um...
[17:15] ---
    Yes?
[17:16] ---
    Y-You're Sumire Heanna-chan
    that's in our class, right?
[17:19] ---
    I know this is sudden, but do you have
    any interest in s-school idols?
[17:24] ---
    Maybe you could...
[17:27] ---
    Just who do you think I am?!
[17:30] ---
    Eek.
[17:32] ---
    I'm sorry...
[17:33] ---
    Oh, no worries!
[17:39] ---
    Hazuki-san.
[17:40] ---
    She's keeping an eye on us.
[17:42] ---
    There are so many people who like music,
    so I thought we could figure it out.
[17:46] ---
    But finding idols might be rough.
[17:57] ---
    I guess they really are hard to find.
[18:00] ---
    Let's go around some
    other classes tomorrow.
[18:03] ---
    I'm sure we'll find some people
    who are interested.
[18:05] ---
    Kanon-san...
[18:06] ---
    We're going the same way
    at least part way. Let's go!
[18:09] ---
    Kanon-san!
[18:12] ---
    I...
[18:14] ---
    I was hoping you'd change your mind...
    about being a school idol.
[18:18] ---
    I didn't want to trouble you,
    so I hesitated asking...
[18:22] ---
    But I really...
[18:25] ---
    I really want to be a school idol
    with you, Kanon-san!
[18:31] ---
    But I told you yesterday...
[18:34] ---
    I can't sing.
[18:36] ---
    If I can't sing,
    I'm just going to hold you back.
[18:39] ---
    You love singing, Kanon-san!
[18:41] ---
    Showing love and support
    for people who love to sing...
[18:44] ---
    That's the kind of person
    I want to be a school idol with!
[18:46] ---
    I can't, though...
[18:47] ---
    Please!
[18:48] ---
    I really can't...
[18:49] ---
    That's not tru--
[18:50] ---
    It is, though!
[18:56] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
    "Let's do this together!?"
[18:59] ---
    S-Sorry...
[19:03] ---
    It's just such a let down...
    when I can't sing when I need to.
[19:07] ---
    I let down everyone around me,
    and most importantly,
[19:11] ---
    I let myself down!
[19:13] ---
    And I don't want that anymore!
[19:19] ---
    I'll support you!
[19:20] ---
    I promise I won't give up
    until you can sing, Kanon-san!
[19:25] ---
    So please, won't you give it a try?
[19:27] ---
    Could you try starting over with me?
[19:38] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
    "Let's do this together!?"
[19:40] ---
    Is this what I want?
[19:43] ---
    There's someone who says
    they love my singing...
[19:48] ---
    Someone who says
    they want to sing with me...
[19:53] ---
    So is this really what I want?
[19:58] ---
    Am I going to be able to live with this?
[20:21] ---
    Kanon-san...
[20:30] ---
    I've felt this way
    ever since I was little...
[20:33] ---
    I love to sing. I want to sing forever.
[20:37] ---
    As long as I'm singing,
    I can fly high up into the sky.
[20:42] ---
    All my troubles, my wayward feelings...
[20:46] ---
    I can turn all of that into
    my strengths and be positive.
[20:53] ---
    I want to always be singing.
[20:59] ---
    I knew it.

    Previously on Love Live! Superstar!!
[00:04] ---
    I'm Kanon Shibuya and
    I'm a first-year in high school!
[00:06] ---
    I love singing, but I failed to get into
    the music program at my school.
[00:09] ---
    This sucks!
[00:10] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[00:10] ---
    And somehow, I was asked
    to be a school idol!
[00:13] ---
    Please, sing with me!
[00:16] ---
    Does anyone want to become
    a school idol with me?
[00:18] ---
    Me? An idol?!
[00:19] ---
    Nope, nope, nope! I mean,
    I can't sing in front of people!
[00:23] ---
    But I do love to sing. I want to do
    something big with my singing.
[00:27] ---
    My yet unknown feeling is on the move!
[00:32] ---
    ♬ I love café au lait and baked apples ♬
[00:41] ---
    ♬ Don't forget the tomatoes ♬
[00:45] ---
    ♬ Hamburg steaks are great, too ♬
[00:50] ---
    What the?
[00:51] ---
    I'd like to know myself.
[00:53] ---
    Morning!
[00:54] ---
    Hey, you're a second-year starting today!
[00:56] ---
    Let's eat!
[00:58] ---
    Manmaru! I'll see you later!
[01:00] ---
    ♬ Hamburg steaks are great, too ♬
[01:03] ---
    Seriously, what?!
[01:06] ---
    Yes! Yes!
[01:08] ---
    I was able to sing in front of people!
[01:16] ---
    A school idol!
[01:20] ---
    That's how I'll be able to sing!
[01:24] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:30] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:35] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[01:52] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[01:56] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[02:00] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[02:03] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[02:05] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:07] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:13] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:17] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:20] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:25] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:27] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:30] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:35] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:41] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:46] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:56] ---
    We got rejected.
[02:59] ---
    Huh? What happened?
[03:01] ---
    "Club Application"
    "School Idol Club"
    "Keke Tang" "Kanon Shibuya"
[03:02] ---
    A club application...
[03:05] ---
    You turned it in?
[03:06] ---
    I was told again that this school
    didn't need school idols...
[03:10] ---
    ...by Hazuki-san.
[03:14] ---
    That scary girl.
[03:16] ---
    From what I heard, clubs are temporarily
    being managed by the student council
[03:22] ---
    which she's in the center of...
[03:25] ---
    So we have to get their approval.
[03:26] ---
    "No School Idols Allowed?!"
[03:28] ---
    Leave it to me!
[03:30] ---
    My answer remains the same.
[03:31] ---
    "Drama Club"
    "Looking for new members"
[03:32] ---
    Why?
[03:33] ---
    I'd rather not explain
    the same thing twice.
[03:36] ---
    Well, I don't get it!
    We're talking about a club!
[03:39] ---
    What's wrong with students
    getting together to do what they want?!
[03:43] ---
    There is something about school idols
    that could be considered music.
[03:47] ---
    And?
[03:50] ---
    Do you not understand?!
[03:51] ---
    Yuigaoka has a dedicated music program
[03:53] ---
    and therefore we must be
    superior to any other school
[03:57] ---
    when it comes to any musical activity,
[03:59] ---
    or the value of our school will go down!
[04:01] ---
    So you're saying we have to be
    at a higher level.
[04:05] ---
    That's no problem! With me and Kanon-san--
[04:09] ---
    Can you really say that?!
[04:12] ---
    There are school idols
    at many schools now.
[04:16] ---
    Are you saying that you two could
    properly represent our school
[04:20] ---
    without embarrassing us
    among all of that competition?
[04:24] ---
    You're going to say all that
    before we even start?
[04:26] ---
    I'll say this one more time.
[04:27] ---
    We must be superior to every other
    school in every musical activity,
[04:32] ---
    or the value of our school will go down.
[04:35] ---
    We must not be inferior to other schools
    with our musical activities.
[04:42] ---
    If you're insistent on doing this,
    you should go to another school.
[04:46] ---
    But...
[04:47] ---
    Let's go, Kanon-san.
[04:51] ---
    "School Withdrawal Application"
    "Dear Yuigaoka Girls' High School,
    Please allow me to withdraw from this school for the reason stated below. Reason"
[04:52] ---
    That jerkface will not
    get away with this...
[04:55] ---
    Kanon-san, you should fill this out, too.
[04:58] ---
    This is...
[04:59] ---
    An application to quit the school.
[05:00] ---
    --What?!
    --Quit?!
[05:01] ---
    On the second day?!
[05:03] ---
    Yeah, that's the expected reaction!
[05:04] ---
    There's no point in
    staying at this school.
[05:06] ---
    Let's become school idols
    at another school.
[05:10] ---
    Yeah, that's not happening.
[05:11] ---
    It's okay!
[05:12] ---
    We'll be able to transfer to a different
    school by taking a transfer exam.
[05:15] ---
    Where is your house?
[05:17] ---
    Right here.
[05:18] ---
    Oh, right. Let's see
    what schools are around here...
[05:21] ---
    Wait, wait! I get how you feel...
[05:24] ---
    But there's no way
    my parents will okay this.
[05:27] ---
    Sis...
[05:28] ---
    You want to quit school?
[05:29] ---
    I don't! Don't worry!
[05:33] ---
    Why is this happening?
[05:36] ---
    Sorry... After I told you
    to leave it to me.
[05:40] ---
    Oh, no! You're very kind, Kanon-san.
[05:43] ---
    Truly kind! If I hadn't come to
    this school, I never would've met you.
[05:48] ---
    That's why I want to be school idols
    with you, no matter what.
[05:53] ---
    Thank you.
[05:54] ---
    No, thank you!
[05:56] ---
    But there are a lot of people
    who don't really like school idols.
[06:01] ---
    There were a lot of people around me
    who also made fun of them because of that.
[06:06] ---
    But I truly believe that
    school idols are magnificent.
[06:11] ---
    Me, too.
[06:12] ---
    Really?!
[06:14] ---
    I get why you're so into them, Keke-chan.
[06:17] ---
    I don't know everything about them yet,
    so I can't be completely sure, but...
[06:21] ---
    I'm so happy!
[06:23] ---
    I'll do whatever I can
    to help make a School Idol Club.
[06:29] ---
    ♬ Yo! I love Manmaru roundy! ♬
[06:31] ---
    ♬ As much as candy! ♬
[06:32] ---
    ♬ The full moon is grandy!
    So I love all things roundy! ♬
[06:37] ---
    That girl goes to our school...
[06:40] ---
    Heyo! Manmaru!
[06:46] ---
    You're just so perfect and round!
[06:50] ---
    Well? Did you find any of
    that Ren girl's weaknesses?
[06:53] ---
    Hey, I just got here!
[06:56] ---
    Sorry!
[06:57] ---
    Anything will work!
[06:58] ---
    Like a group she's enemies with,
[07:01] ---
    or like she's absolutely
    terrified of ghosts...
[07:04] ---
    Anything that'll give us the upper hand!
[07:07] ---
    Well... To put it simply, her weakness...
[07:11] ---
    Yeah?
[07:13] ---
    Her weakness...
[07:14] ---
    Her weakness?
[07:16] ---
    Her weakness...
[07:18] ---
    Her weakness?!
[07:21] ---
    ...doesn't exist, yo!
[07:23] ---
    I asked a bunch of kids
    from the music program.
[07:27] ---
    She's smart.
[07:28] ---
    She's athletic.
[07:30] ---
    She's a great leader.
[07:33] ---
    There're actually a bunch of people
    who rely on her.
[07:36] ---
    And apparently, the director knows
    her mom, Hana Hazuki-san.
[07:41] ---
    So in other words, it's probably
    going to be super hard
[07:45] ---
    to turn around her decision.
[07:48] ---
    So hey, have you thought about
    making another club
[07:51] ---
    or joining another club
    and singing there for now?
[07:53] ---
    Another club?
[07:55] ---
    Yeah. Continue in a club
    where you won't get yelled at
[07:58] ---
    and then make a School Idol Club
    when you get a chance?
[08:01] ---
    That won't work.
[08:02] ---
    Why?
[08:03] ---
    If we let this go on,
[08:05] ---
    that means Hazuki-san
    can have her way with our school,
[08:08] ---
    and that can't happen!
[08:09] ---
    Yeah, okay. But she didn't approve
    the School Idol Club, right?
[08:13] ---
    Then I'll think of something else!
    Keke-chan's really down about this.
[08:17] ---
    Yeah, but...
[08:19] ---
    Not to mention
[08:20] ---
    it'd be really rude for me to
    join another club for that reason.
[08:25] ---
    And I... I'm really interested
    in school idols now.
[08:32] ---
    Kanon-chan...
[08:33] ---
    What did you just...
[08:36] ---
    You? An idol?!
[08:39] ---
    Give us freedom!
[08:41] ---
    It's wrong that we cannot
    freely pursue club activities!
[08:45] ---
    Club activities should always
    be equal and fair!
[08:45] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[08:48] ---
    You all agree, right? Now, everyone!
[08:51] ---
    Let us fight together!
[08:55] ---
    This probably isn't it...
[08:58] ---
    Kanon-san! My plan's working, right?
[09:01] ---
    Sure...
[09:03] ---
    Signatures, please!
[09:05] ---
    Kanon-chan?
[09:06] ---
    What are you doing?
[09:07] ---
    We're trying to collect signatures.
[09:10] ---
    You would prefer to freely make
    whatever club you want, right?
[09:13] ---
    Well...
[09:14] ---
    Then sign, please!
[09:16] ---
    This is bad. What if Hazuki-san finds out?
[09:19] ---
    Maybe you should keep this on the DL.
[09:22] ---
    You might get the music
    program kids after you.
[09:25] ---
    "Let us freely pursue club activities!!"
[09:25] ---
    That's fine. We're not
    doing anything wrong.
[09:28] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[09:31] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[09:33] ---
    Chi-chan...
[09:35] ---
    Is this your friend, Kanon-san?
[09:37] ---
    The director...
[09:39] ---
    The director!
[09:43] ---
    "Let us freely pursue club activities!!"
[09:45] ---
    So that's why you were
    trying to collect signatures.
[09:48] ---
    Yes! We have something we want to do
[09:51] ---
    and thought it was wrong
    that we couldn't do it freely.
[09:54] ---
    Well, Hazuki-san.
[09:55] ---
    Is it true that you wouldn't
    allow them to form this club?
[09:59] ---
    I do not remember interfering
    with their freedom with any clubs.
[10:02] ---
    You did.
[10:03] ---
    Just school idols.
[10:04] ---
    And what's wrong with school idols?!
[10:07] ---
    I'm certain that I already told you.
[10:10] ---
    I believe I understand what's going on.
[10:12] ---
    --Hazuki-san.
    --Yes?
[10:14] ---
    I understand your concern,
[10:16] ---
    but we have no right to stop students
    from the general curriculum
[10:19] ---
    from pursuing their musical interests,
    no matter their level.
[10:22] ---
    But my mother--
[10:23] ---
    This has nothing to do with
    your mother. Understood?
[10:29] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[10:31] ---
    Our school will not prohibit
    school idol activities.
[10:36] ---
    However, as Hazuki-san has said,
    music is the pride and joy of this school.
[10:43] ---
    I will give you an assignment.
[10:46] ---
    First place?!
[10:47] ---
    Yes. At a festival where
    the local school idols gather.
[10:52] ---
    That's the Yoyogi School Idol Fes?
[10:55] ---
    She said she'd allow us to have
    our club if we place first there.
[10:59] ---
    Wow, you guys have to instantly
    go on stage and place first?
[11:04] ---
    Good luck...
[11:05] ---
    We're not done yet!
[11:07] ---
    Whoops, my bad.
    So what are you going to do?
[11:10] ---
    Well, Keke-chan and I decided we'd
    make a song and practice that together,
[11:16] ---
    but we don't know how to dance
    or do choreography at all.
[11:19] ---
    --Mm-hm.
    --The recent school idols are super good.
[11:20] ---
    --The recent school idols are super good.
[11:23] ---
    So we were wondering...
[11:24] ---
    We were wondering...
[11:26] ---
    --Could you teach us
    how to dance, Chi-chan?
    --Could you teach us how to dance, Chisato-san?
[11:29] ---
    --Me?
    --Please!
[11:33] ---
    Oh, fine. But my lesson fees
    are pretty steep!
[11:37] ---
    You'll do it?!
[11:38] ---
    Yeah. I'd love to if you'll have me.
[11:41] ---
    Yay!
[11:43] ---
    Now we'll be unstoppable as dancers!
[11:45] ---
    Everyone's admired Chi-chan's dancing
    skills since we were in grade school!
[11:49] ---
    Why don't you become a school idol
    with us, Chisato-san?
[11:53] ---
    Me?!
[11:54] ---
    Yes, please!
[11:55] ---
    She can't, Keke-chan.
[11:58] ---
    Chi-chan's in the music program. I can't
    ask her to go out of her way anymore.
[12:02] ---
    I see...
[12:06] ---
    Okay, first, let's see what you've got!
[12:09] ---
    We'll start with some simple steps.
[12:11] ---
    Okay!
[12:12] ---
    One, two, three, four,
[12:14] ---
    five, six, seven, eight!
[12:16] ---
    One, two, three, four,
[12:18] ---
    five, six... seven... eight...
[12:24] ---
    Huh?
[12:25] ---
    Keke-chan?
[12:27] ---
    I forgot to mention one thing...
[12:30] ---
    I'm terrible at sports...
[12:33] ---
    Flop.
[12:36] ---
    Keke-chan!
[12:38] ---
    You're kidding!
[12:44] ---
    Nope...
[12:47] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[12:58] ---
    Wow, this looks amazing!
[13:05] ---
    I guess I've got the wrong spot.
[13:10] ---
    Wow, Sunny Pas!
[13:12] ---
    They're so cool!
[13:15] ---
    Sunny Pas?
[13:26] ---
    I think I've worked you two
    hard enough today...
[13:29] ---
    I-I can't breathe...
[13:31] ---
    She seriously has...
[13:32] ---
    ...zero stamina.
[13:34] ---
    Flop.
[13:35] ---
    Oh, come on! You're hopeless!
[13:37] ---
    How did you plan on
    being an idol like this?
[13:40] ---
    It's all about heart.
[13:41] ---
    The most important thing
    about school idols is heart!
[13:44] ---
    I see...
[13:46] ---
    By the way, I can totally get
    perfect combos in rhythm games.
[13:51] ---
    Like, tap, tap, tap.
[13:53] ---
    That doesn't help.
[13:54] ---
    But that does mean
    she has a sense of rhythm.
[13:57] ---
    You're so positive.
[13:57] ---
    Tap, tap, tap.
[13:59] ---
    But we only have a little bit of time.
[14:03] ---
    It'll be time before you know it.
[14:05] ---
    Regardless, you can't be a school idol
    with that level of stamina.
[14:09] ---
    If we keep this up, you'll be able to
    build up your stamina
[14:12] ---
    so we'll fit in some
    dance lessons along the way.
[14:15] ---
    Can you do that?
[14:16] ---
    I can!
[14:20] ---
    That's it for today.
[14:22] ---
    We'll start dance lessons tomorrow.
[14:24] ---
    Thank you so much!
[14:26] ---
    Xiè xiè!
[14:27] ---
    Oh, yeah. We have to
    start making our song, too.
[14:30] ---
    Oh, right. You've still
    got that to do, too.
[14:33] ---
    I have some.
[14:36] ---
    I actually have some lyrics written.
[14:40] ---
    Though part of it is in Chinese.
[14:44] ---
    Wow!
[14:48] ---
    "I want to sing!! And
    I don't want to give up"
[14:52] ---
    This is lovely. I think this is great!
[14:56] ---
    Really?
[14:57] ---
    Yeah! I'll take good care of these lyrics
    you wrote and make a song.
[15:05] ---
    We're not going to give up.
[15:11] ---
    Wait. Is this homework?
    I guess it wouldn't be.
[15:15] ---
    It is. Homework from my friend.
[15:19] ---
    There're Chinese dictionaries
    in Dad's room, right?
[15:22] ---
    Of course there are. He's a translator.
[15:25] ---
    Dad.
[15:28] ---
    "Japanese - Chinese Dictionary"
[15:29] ---
    Wow...
[15:31] ---
    I haven't seen her so absorbed in a while.
[15:34] ---
    By the way, is there even
    a Chinese class in high school?
[15:38] ---
    No idea.
[15:44] ---
    I-I can't breathe...
[15:46] ---
    Good job.
[15:47] ---
    You did a great job.
[15:49] ---
    Flop.
[15:50] ---
    One, two, three, four,
[15:52] ---
    five, six, seven, eight!
[15:54] ---
    One, two, three, four,
[15:56] ---
    five, six, seven, eight!
[16:29] ---
    I can't believe she fell asleep there.
[16:32] ---
    She's been pulling off
    your regimen every day.
[16:35] ---
    Are her classes going okay with all this?
[16:38] ---
    Oh, yeah. She's totally fine.
[16:40] ---
    "Arithmetic"
[16:42] ---
    To answer this question, let's have...
[16:44] ---
    Keke Tang-san.
[16:46] ---
    X squared plus 2X plus 5!
[16:49] ---
    Correct.
[16:51] ---
    Goodnight!
[16:53] ---
    Other than sports,
    she's pretty much perfect.
[16:56] ---
    Oh, yeah. I made a little song yesterday.
[16:59] ---
    Way to go, Kanon-chan!
[17:01] ---
    Keke-chan's words were so lovely.
[17:03] ---
    So I thought this might be
    the song she wanted.
[17:07] ---
    It's nowhere near done though.
[17:22] ---
    It's good.
[17:25] ---
    It's so good!
[17:27] ---
    Really?!
[17:27] ---
    It's great!
[17:29] ---
    Keke-chan's feelings are getting through
[17:31] ---
    and you're coming through
    in this song, too!
[17:33] ---
    I'm so happy! Then I'm going to
    keep working to finish this song
[17:37] ---
    so could you start thinking up
    some choreography for it?
[17:39] ---
    You got it!
[17:40] ---
    But I'm not going to lower it to
    your level. You have to get first place.
[17:45] ---
    Are you ready for that?
[17:47] ---
    I-I'll do my best.
[17:48] ---
    I'll do my best!
[17:49] ---
    Oh, you're awake.
[17:51] ---
    It's all about willpower... flop.
[17:56] ---
    ...seven, eight! One, two, three, four,
[17:59] ---
    five, six, seven, eight!
[18:00] ---
    One, two, three, four,
[18:02] ---
    five, six, seven, eight!
[18:04] ---
    I'm so tired!
[18:06] ---
    I think you two have gotten a lot better.
[18:08] ---
    I dunno...
[18:10] ---
    This actually feels really good now.
[18:13] ---
    Then why don't we use that energy
    to run one more set?
[18:16] ---
    Nope!
[18:21] ---
    ♬ What kind of breeze blows through ♬
[18:27] ---
    ♬ In that sky that reaches up so high? ♬
[18:34] ---
    ♬ Beyond this burgeoning green knoll ♬
[18:37] ---
    Okay, one more set!
[18:39] ---
    What?!
[18:40] ---
    ♬ What dreams will you wait for? ♬
[18:52] ---
    --Welcome home. We're having
    Hamburg steaks for dinner.
    --We're not going to give up. We're not going to give up.
[18:56] ---
    We're not going to give up.
    We're not going to give up.
[18:59] ---
    We're not going to give up.
[19:00] ---
    We're not going to give up.
[19:33] ---
    No, no!
[19:46] ---
    We're not going to give up.
[19:48] ---
    We're not going to give up.
[19:52] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[19:59] ---
    It's finished.
[20:03] ---
    It's done, it's done, it's done!
[20:06] ---
    It's done!
[20:08] ---
    It's still cold in the morning...
[20:19] ---
    Keke-chan!
[20:25] ---
    Vwoom!
[20:27] ---
    Kanon-san!
[20:28] ---
    Let's run together!
[20:31] ---
    Okay.
[20:42] ---
    You know...
[20:44] ---
    When I failed to get into
    the music program,
[20:47] ---
    I thought everything was over.
[20:49] ---
    I graduated, had spring break,
[20:52] ---
    entered high school,
    but I thought it was all over.
[20:57] ---
    I thought things were just
    going to continue to be over.
[21:02] ---
    But...
[21:03] ---
    It's finally starting!
[21:06] ---
    The new me...
[21:07] ---
    ...gets to start!
[21:15] ---
    It's really pretty.
[21:18] ---
    Yeah.
[21:21] ---
    Oh yeah. I finished the song.
[21:26] ---
    I'd love to hear it!
[21:27] ---
    There're other people here
    so it's embarrassing.
[21:30] ---
    I'll send you the file later.
[21:35] ---
    Will you sing it for me?
[21:37] ---
    Will you sing it for me here?
    I want to see you singing it.
[21:44] ---
    I want to hear your song, Kanon-san.
[21:48] ---
    Keke-chan... I'm not sure if I can.
[21:52] ---
    Let's let it resonate!
[21:54] ---
    Let's fill this town with your
    magnificent singing voice, Kanon-san!
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
[23:37] ---

    Previously on Love Live! Superstar!!
[00:03] ---
    I came to Japan with my dream
    to become a school idol. But...
[00:07] ---
    We got rejected.
[00:09] ---
    We were defeated by Ren Hazuki-san's
    frigid attitude towards school idols.
SIGN    "School Withdrawal Application" "Dear Yuigaoka Girls' High School, Please allow me to withdraw from this school for the reason stated below. Reason"
[00:13] ---
    "Let's be school idols"
[00:13] ---
    It's wrong that we cannot
    freely pursue club activities!
[00:17] ---
    Two of the girls understood
    my passion and helped me out.
[00:21] ---
    We're not going to give up.
[00:23] ---
    In order to continue being school idols,
[00:24] ---
    we have to place first at an event
    at the end of the month!
[00:27] ---
    The new me...
[00:29] ---
    ...gets to start!
[00:41] ---
    Kanon-san?
[00:43] ---
    S-Sorry. I was just a little startled.
[00:46] ---
    I'm gonna sing!
[00:51] ---
    Kanon-san, could it be...
[00:54] ---
    Nope! I'm fine! Totally fine!
[00:57] ---
    Wait... What?!
[01:01] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:07] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:12] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[01:29] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[01:33] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[01:37] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[01:40] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[01:42] ---
    The sky's so bright
[01:44] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[01:50] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[01:54] ---
    Make every day fun?
[01:56] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:02] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:04] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:07] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:12] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:18] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:23] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:30] ---
    "Kuukaa"
[02:31] ---
    You couldn't do it after all?!
[02:33] ---
    Yeah.
[02:34] ---
    But you've always been able
    to sing when it didn't count.
[02:37] ---
    I thought I'd be okay since it was morning
    and not many people were around...
[02:41] ---
    Did your problem actually get worse?
[02:44] ---
    Possibly.
[02:46] ---
    We have to place first at that fes, too...
[02:49] ---
    Sis...
[02:52] ---
    Perhaps you should just give up.
[02:54] ---
    If you embarrass yourselves at that fes,
    it'll harm our school's reputation.
[02:58] ---
    We don't know for sure
    that she won't be able to sing.
[03:00] ---
    I have my doubts.
[03:02] ---
    Anyway, we're just
    going to do what we can.
[03:04] ---
    We still have time, and the director
    gave them her blessing.
[03:08] ---
    There's no problem.
[03:11] ---
    I truly hope this doesn't interfere
    with your dance practice, Arashi-san.
[03:17] ---
    I'm sorry, Chi-chan.
[03:19] ---
    No, don't apologize! I've definitely
    been practicing my dance.
[03:23] ---
    I know! Do you have
    some time after school?
[03:29] ---
    Takoyaki?!
[03:31] ---
    Wow! It looks so yummy!
[03:33] ---
    What does this have to do with
    me not being able to sing?
[03:35] ---
    The times you couldn't sing were either
[03:38] ---
    when you were in front of people
    or on a big stage.
[03:41] ---
    But this time...
[03:43] ---
    The real reason is
    the pressure you're feeling!
[03:46] ---
    This added pressure of
    having to place first at this fes
[03:49] ---
    was created within you, Kanon-chan.
[03:51] ---
    Which means...
[03:53] ---
    Welcome! Wait, why?!
[03:56] ---
    Let's do some takoyaki training!
[03:59] ---
    I'm sure you help out at your café,
[04:01] ---
    but you might be able to change if you're
    in a situation you're not used to.
[04:05] ---
    Whenever you're making takoyaki,
    you're being watched a lot of the time.
[04:08] ---
    --Meaning, you're working while
    the customers watch you.
[04:12] ---
    --It looks so good! It looks so good!
    --Meaning, you're working while
    the customers watch you.
[04:13] ---
    --It looks so good! It looks so good!
    --I see.
[04:15] ---
    If you can successfully make
    some takoyaki under that pressure...
[04:19] ---
    I might be able to sing...
[04:21] ---
    You might be able to sing...
[04:22] ---
    You might be able to sing...
[04:24] ---
    I might be able to sing...
[04:27] ---
    Or not.
[04:29] ---
    Welf, I gwuess finging ish diffwent.
[04:32] ---
    Guess it's not that easy after all.
[04:35] ---
    Costumes?
[04:36] ---
    You'll look great in anything, Kanon-san!
[04:38] ---
    I'm sure if you wear something cute,
    you'll feel better and be able to sing.
[04:42] ---
    It'd be great if that's the case.
[04:43] ---
    Let's have you try on my recommendation!
[04:48] ---
    So excited!
[04:51] ---
    I'm going to wear this... onstage?
[04:53] ---
    So excited!
[04:56] ---
    What's the matter?
[04:58] ---
    Er, I was just thinking...
    how cute this is.
[05:01] ---
    I know, right?!
[05:02] ---
    Show us, already!
[05:03] ---
    I haven't worn it yet.
[05:04] ---
    --Why?!
    --Oh, you must want some accessories, too!
[05:07] ---
    --Oh, I see!
    --Uh... What?
[05:09] ---
    I think this will look the best on you.
[05:12] ---
    I think this color will
    look nice on her, too.
[05:14] ---
    I see. Then let's give this a try...
[05:17] ---
    Um, hello?
[05:20] ---
    Sure, here you go.
[05:22] ---
    That's not what I meant.
[05:26] ---
    I mean this outfit is
    too cute for me to wear!
[05:30] ---
    Charge!
[05:31] ---
    Hiyah!
[05:37] ---
    You look lovely!
[05:39] ---
    Thanks, I guess...
[05:40] ---
    Okay, I'm taking it.
[05:41] ---
    What?!
[05:42] ---
    Look this way!
[05:44] ---
    O-Okay...
[05:46] ---
    Now, look up this way.
[05:47] ---
    L-Like this?
[05:48] ---
    Yes! That's perfect!
[05:51] ---
    So cute! So cute!
[05:53] ---
    So cute! So cute!
[05:56] ---
    I can't take it!
[06:00] ---
    Delete that.
[06:01] ---
    Oh, it's fine.
[06:03] ---
    I'm just going to upload them onto
    the internet and get tons of likes.
[06:06] ---
    That's not fine at all!
[06:09] ---
    I just can't!
[06:12] ---
    If that's all it took for me to sing,
    I would've been able to by now.
[06:15] ---
    You'll definitely be able
    to sing, Kanon-san!
[06:17] ---
    I witnessed that moment myself!
[06:20] ---
    That was just by chance.
    This must be the real me, though.
[06:25] ---
    No need to be gloomy!
[06:27] ---
    The only reason I'm able to work so hard
    right now is because you were by my side.
[06:32] ---
    Keke-chan...
[06:33] ---
    But I was able to sing in front of people
    once, and now, we're back to this.
[06:37] ---
    I just don't know what to do.
[06:39] ---
    All right. Then let's stop trying
    to force you to sing right now.
[06:44] ---
    I'll sing by myself
    in this upcoming performance.
[06:47] ---
    I'm not as good of a singer
    as you are, Kanon-san...
[06:50] ---
    But you can just stand up
    on that stage with me.
[06:53] ---
    Let's do everything we can
    for this performance together!
[06:56] ---
    Once that's done, you can try
    even harder to sing again.
[07:00] ---
    I promised you.
[07:02] ---
    I promised I won't give up
    until you can sing, Kanon-san!
[07:07] ---
    Kanon-chan.
[07:09] ---
    Keke-chan's this serious about it.
[07:13] ---
    You're right.
[07:15] ---
    Our top priority is
    placing first together!
[07:18] ---
    I'll do everything I can
    to make it an amazing performance!
[07:20] ---
    Yes!
[07:22] ---
    Now that that's settled, there's something
    I'd like to show you two.
[07:29] ---
    Ta-da!
[07:32] ---
    What do you think?
[07:34] ---
    What is this?
[07:35] ---
    Since our first show is coming up,
[07:38] ---
    I've prepared a sign with our
    group name on it and some blades!
[07:41] ---
    Aren't the fans supposed to
    have those blades?
[07:43] ---
    I'm thinking about handing them out!
    To everyone who might support us!
[07:48] ---
    What exactly is "Kuukaa"?
[07:50] ---
    It's the group name I thought up!
[07:53] ---
    I took the "Kuu" from Keke
[07:54] ---
    and "Kaa" from your name and
    mashed them together to make "Kuukaa."
[07:58] ---
    I'm not sure about this.
[07:59] ---
    But, wow. You actually
    made this while training.
[08:02] ---
    It was my pleasure.
[08:03] ---
    Let's... maybe rethink the sign.
[08:19] ---
    So this is where we're going to perform.
[08:21] ---
    Apparently, there will be about
    ten groups performing in total.
[08:26] ---
    And we have to place first out of them.
[08:29] ---
    --Yes!
    --Yes!
[08:30] ---
    Yes!
[08:32] ---
    Well, see you tomorrow.
[08:33] ---
    Bye-bye!
[08:39] ---
    I'm sure Keke-chan would be
    better off without me...
[08:45] ---
    Wait! It's Sunny Pas!
[08:47] ---
    No way!
[08:48] ---
    You're right! They're joining
    at the last minute!
[08:51] ---
    Kanon-san!
[08:57] ---
    What's the matter?
[09:00] ---
    You won't believe it! It's Sunny Pas!
[09:02] ---
    The super school idol group
    from Kozushima, Sunny Passion!
[09:07] ---
    And now, Sunny Passion will be at our fes!
[09:13] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[09:18] ---
    So precious!
[09:21] ---
    You have this giant poster at home?
[09:23] ---
    But of course!
[09:25] ---
    The reason I wanted to come to Japan
    is because I saw their concert!
[09:30] ---
    She can warm up your heart
    with the brightness of a sunflower.
[09:34] ---
    Sunny Pas's sun, Yuuna Hijirisawa-sama.
[09:37] ---
    She astounds us with her
    unmatched beauty and elegance.
[09:39] ---
    Sunny Pas's Sexy Night...
    Mao Hiiragi-sama.
[09:44] ---
    They're that amazing, huh?
[09:46] ---
    And they're going to perform
    at the fes you're in?
[09:49] ---
    Yes! Very suddenly!
[09:50] ---
    Oh, I can't believe we're going to be on
    the same stage as Sunny Pas-sama!
[10:00] ---
    Yeah, they're definitely
    last year's Tokyo reps, all right.
[10:02] ---
    They're on another level.
[10:04] ---
    If they're competing,
    they'll probably get first place...
[10:07] ---
    Of course, they will!
[10:08] ---
    Sunny Pas will definitely
    place first at this fes!
[10:13] ---
    But in order for Kanon-san and I
    to continue being school idols...
[10:17] ---
    We have to place first at this fes...
[10:26] ---
    You finally got it?
[10:27] ---
    Looks like it.
[10:29] ---
    I don't think we can win.
[10:31] ---
    What should we do?
[10:33] ---
    You have five days until the show.
[10:35] ---
    I'm sure making your practices
    a bit harder won't exactly help...
[10:38] ---
    And we have to keep in mind that
    Keke-chan's going to sing everything.
[10:43] ---
    I'm sorry.
[10:45] ---
    It's okay! I can support you,
    Kanon-san! Just watch!
[10:51] ---
    One, two, three.
[10:55] ---
    See? After practicing every day,
    I've gotten much better.
[10:59] ---
    If I keep this up, I'm sure that
    everything will be perfect at our show!
[11:07] ---
    Well, I'm heading home.
[11:09] ---
    Chi-chan?
[11:10] ---
    It's getting pretty late.
    I've got dance practice after dinner.
[11:15] ---
    And... the time you two spend
    together is important, too.
[11:18] ---
    It's you two that'll be
    standing on that stage.
[11:21] ---
    See you later.
[11:26] ---
    I'm sorry. Please excuse me for a moment.
[11:32] ---
    Chisato-san!
[11:34] ---
    What's up?
[11:36] ---
    Um... I know this may sound weird
    all of a sudden, but...
[11:41] ---
    Are you interested in
    school idols, Chisato-san?
[11:46] ---
    I am.
[11:47] ---
    Really?!
[11:48] ---
    But...
[11:50] ---
    I have dance.
[11:52] ---
    My biggest goal right now is to
    make a name for myself as a dancer.
[11:56] ---
    I don't have time to
    try to balance out both.
[12:00] ---
    Kanon-chan's really serious
    about this, too,
[12:01] ---
    so I can't participate
    with lukewarm feelings.
[12:04] ---
    I'm sorry.
[12:05] ---
    No, I'm sorry.
[12:07] ---
    I just thought Kanon-san would be
    really happy if you joined us.
[12:13] ---
    Thanks.
[12:20] ---
    Hello?
[12:28] ---
    Were you able to take that call okay?
[12:29] ---
    Yes. My older sister was worried about me.
[12:32] ---
    I see. That's nice of her.
[12:35] ---
    I guess I'll head home, too.
[12:36] ---
    Um!
[12:38] ---
    I actually just invited
    Chisato-santo join us again.
[12:44] ---
    But she said she has dancing
    to concentrate on...
[12:47] ---
    I see.
[12:49] ---
    But please don't get the wrong idea!
[12:51] ---
    I want to stand on the same stage as you!
[12:54] ---
    That hasn't changed!
[12:57] ---
    Yeah... That makes me really happy.
[13:00] ---
    But I was thinking...
[13:03] ---
    At this rate, it's going to be really hard
    for us to get first place.
[13:07] ---
    Meaning, your dreams
    might come to an end...
[13:12] ---
    Because of me.
[13:15] ---
    You came here all the way from Shanghai
    because you wanted to do something.
[13:19] ---
    Your dreams have just begun...
[13:25] ---
    And if...
[13:27] ---
    And if you have to give up
    on those dreams because of me...
[13:32] ---
    I would never be able to apologize enough!
[13:34] ---
    I'm just holding you back!
[13:37] ---
    I can't get up on that stage knowing that!
[13:45] ---
    I'm sorry, Keke-chan. I'm sorry!
[13:50] ---
    Please don't talk so badly about yourself.
[13:53] ---
    I'd have to pity myself
    because you stole my heart then.
[13:59] ---
    My family is very strict with academics,
    so all I ever did was study.
[14:06] ---
    I didn't really have anything
    I wanted to do
[14:09] ---
    so I figured that's all I ever needed
    in life, and it was the right thing to do.
[14:15] ---
    But then...
[14:17] ---
    I saw them.
[14:19] ---
    As soon as I saw them,
    I thought, "This is it!"
[14:22] ---
    I want to be able to sing what I'm feeling
    or experiencing freely.
[14:27] ---
    I felt that same excitement
    the first time I heard you sing.
[14:33] ---
    That's why you're a star to me,
    Kanon-san! You're my dream!
[14:38] ---
    Please cheer up!
[14:40] ---
    Standing on stage with you
    is one of my dreams.
[14:45] ---
    But...
[14:46] ---
    Let's make it the best performance ever!
[14:52] ---
    I'm going to sing!
[14:54] ---
    Kanon-san...
[14:56] ---
    You're working so hard!
[14:59] ---
    You're wanting to stand on stage
    with me despite how I am.
[15:04] ---
    I'll believe in myself as much as possible
    and do everything that I can!
[15:10] ---
    Kanon-san!
[15:14] ---
    You can just call me "Kanon."
[15:17] ---
    Just call me "Kanon."
[15:20] ---
    "4 days until the fes!
    Let's do this!!"
[15:22] ---
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[15:25] ---
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[15:26] ---
    "Easy Vocal Training"
[15:29] ---
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[15:32] ---
    "1 more day until the fes!"
[15:32] ---
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[15:36] ---
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[15:39] ---
    One, two, three, four...
[15:46] ---
    Good job!
[15:48] ---
    It's impressive that you were able to
    do this in such a short amount of time!
[15:51] ---
    I can't anymore!
[15:52] ---
    I can't breathe!
[15:54] ---
    Again, great job!
[15:56] ---
    Okay, it's finally showtime!
[16:03] ---
    So many people...
[16:05] ---
    School idols are so amazing!
    I dreamed about this stage!
[16:08] ---
    What should I do? I'm getting nervous.
[16:11] ---
    If you think you can sing,
    just give me a sign in the beginning.
[16:15] ---
    Keep your head up even if you can't sing.
[16:18] ---
    I will sing for the both of us!
[16:20] ---
    Thank you.
[16:24] ---
    It's starting!
[16:25] ---
    Hurry!
[16:26] ---
    What?
[16:28] ---
    Kuukaa!
[16:34] ---
    You've got this, Sis!
[16:39] ---
    I'm gonna go have a look.
[16:41] ---
    All right.
[16:42] ---
    It's about to start.
[16:45] ---
    Yeah.
[16:55] ---
    It'll be okay.
[16:56] ---
    It'll be okay,
    it'll be okay, it'll be okay.
[17:00] ---
    It'll be okay, it'll be okay.
[17:03] ---
    It'll be okay, it'll be okay.
[17:05] ---
    It'll be okay, it'll be okay,
    it'll be okay, it'll be okay...
[17:15] ---
    No wonder there haven't been
    any scouts in town.
[17:18] ---
    It'll be okay, it'll be okay,
    it'll be okay, it'll be okay...
[17:22] ---
    Keke-chan.
[17:25] ---
    What are those two doing?
[17:32] ---
    Oh, no! Now I've done it!
    I've really done it this time!
[17:46] ---
    I've really done it this time!
[17:48] ---
    What's going on?
[18:07] ---
    Kanon! Look!
[18:27] ---
    It's so beautiful!
[18:30] ---
    You can do it!
[18:32] ---
    Don't give up!
[18:33] ---
    Sing!
[18:48] ---
    I can sing... because I'm not alone!
[18:51] ---
    This should do it!
[18:53] ---
    A shooting star races through
[18:57] ---
    We chase after it and become stars
[19:00] ---
    Sparkle!
[19:15] ---
    In this night sky where nothing can be seen,
    we see a shooting star shoot across
[19:21] ---
    It shined so brilliantly
    that it gave us courage
[19:29] ---
    Maybe one day we can be like that, too
[19:35] ---
    Hope has brought us
    the scent of a new season
[19:42] ---
    Hello (Hello) My Dream
[19:44] ---
    Let's start something new
    (even if it's scary)
[19:48] ---
    Let's go (we'll be fine)
    just like (always)
[19:52] ---
    Our bond is right here
[19:55] ---
    A shooting star races through
[19:58] ---
    We chase after it and become stars
[20:02] ---
    We won't stop, we can't stop,
    even if we're still small
[20:09] ---
    Because we're not alone
[20:12] ---
    We can continue forward
    without giving up
[20:16] ---
    The Tiny Stars shine
    as many times as we've gotten back up
[20:24] ---
    I believe (but that's not enough)
    to make anything come true
[20:30] ---
    Until it comes true (we'll have to
    keep running) through the darkness
[20:38] ---
    This shining shooting star
[20:41] ---
    We chase after it and become stars
[20:45] ---
    We won't stop, we can't stop,
    even if we're still small
[20:51] ---
    Because we want to continue dreaming
[20:55] ---
    The same dream together forever
[20:59] ---
    Let's hold our hands together tightly
    and go, Tiny Stars
[21:05] ---
    Sparkle!
[21:27] ---
    Galaxy!
[21:42] ---
    You're not going to talk to them?
[21:43] ---
    I'm the type that keeps her favorite
    foods and things for last.
[21:48] ---
    We did it... We did it!
[21:52] ---
    We won the special
    newcomer award that day.
[21:56] ---
    But of course, Sunny Passion
    took first place.
[22:00] ---
    So we might not be able to
    continue being school idols.
[22:05] ---
    But I don't regret anything.
[22:07] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School Idols
    Win the Special Newcomer Award!!"
[22:08] ---
    Because I was able to put on
    the best performance with Keke-chan,
[22:10] ---
    just like we promised!
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together

    Previously on Love Live! Superstar!!
[00:03] ---
    Keke-chan and Kanon-chan participated
    in a fes that would determine
[00:07] ---
    if they could create
    their school idol club. But...
[00:09] ---
    What?!
[00:10] ---
    Kanon-chan suddenly couldn't sing
    in front of people again.
[00:12] ---
    We have to place first at that fes, too...
[00:15] ---
    Both of them didn't give up
    until Kanon-chan could sing again.
[00:18] ---
    And then, the day of the fes...
[00:22] ---
    It's so beautiful!
[00:23] ---
    It was the first fes and they managed to
    get the special newcomer award!
[00:26] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School Idols
    Win the Special Newcomer Award!!"
[00:27] ---
    That's amazing! I'm going to
    do my best with dancing, too!
[00:31] ---
    All right, everyone, get to your places.
[00:34] ---
    Yes, ma'am.
[00:36] ---
    Very good. You all look adorable.
[00:38] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[00:42] ---
    We're counting on you.
[00:44] ---
    Okay...
[00:51] ---
    Ugh! This always happens to me.
[00:56] ---
    Excuse me.
[00:58] ---
    Pardon me. Here's my card.
[01:04] ---
    A talent agency... scout... wait!
[01:08] ---
    I know this is sudden, but I'm a scout.
[01:13] ---
    Your looks! That overflowing aura!
    You are truly perfect
[01:17] ---
    to play a passerby!
[01:19] ---
    Galaxy?!
[01:21] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:27] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:32] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[01:49] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[01:53] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[01:57] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[02:00] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[02:02] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:04] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:10] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:14] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:16] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:22] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:24] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:27] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:32] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:38] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:43] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:52] ---
    "Street Corner Galaxy"
[02:53] ---
    Passerby? Honestly!
[02:55] ---
    If you just wanted me to be an extra,
    just say so. How convoluted.
[02:59] ---
    Why do you think I walk down
    that street every single day
[03:02] ---
    --without actually anything to do there...
    --So you got your club?
[03:04] ---
    --Yeah! We suddenly got
    called to the director's office,
[03:05] ---
    --Sneaky sneak...
    --Yeah! We suddenly got
    called to the director's office,
[03:07] ---
    so I was worried she'd tell us no, but...
[03:10] ---
    Apparently the fact that
[03:12] ---
    we got a special award despite it being
    our first performance was in our favor.
[03:17] ---
    We got tons of new followers, too! Look!
[03:20] ---
    Wow! Two thousand?!
[03:21] ---
    And the director said we could
    use the roof for practice!
[03:25] ---
    "Following"
    "Followers"
[03:40] ---
    Here are your keys to your club room.
[03:43] ---
    Th-Thanks.
[03:46] ---
    Um...
[03:49] ---
    We'll do our best.
[03:51] ---
    We'll do our best and
    make a name for ourselves
[03:54] ---
    so we can make this school proud.
    Then maybe you'll--
[03:57] ---
    Then do anything other than
    be school idols.
[04:02] ---
    I'd be more than happy to support you
[04:04] ---
    in anything other than being school idols.
[04:08] ---
    We're not changing our minds.
[04:09] ---
    After singing on that stage, I realized
    how wonderful school idols are.
[04:15] ---
    We're going to practice even more
    and put on an even better show.
[04:18] ---
    We want to sing even better songs.
[04:20] ---
    Unfortunately, I highly doubt you'd
    be able to win at the current Love Live.
[04:30] ---
    Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky, sneak.
[04:33] ---
    What are school idols?
[04:36] ---
    Idols who perform at school...
[04:39] ---
    So basically amateurs.
[04:42] ---
    A shooting star races through
[04:43] ---
    This is from the other day.
[04:45] ---
    We chase after it and become stars
[04:46] ---
    So they were school idols. In that case...
[04:49] ---
    We won't stop...
[04:51] ---
    Let's see... 4-B. 4-B...
[04:55] ---
    Is it really this way?
[04:57] ---
    All the other club rooms are
    in the new school building...
[05:00] ---
    Yeah. When I looked at the map,
    it said it was over here.
[05:04] ---
    But I wonder why we have two keys.
[05:06] ---
    I found it.
[05:10] ---
    "School Idol Club"
[05:11] ---
    School... Idol Club?
[05:14] ---
    I wonder if the director
    put this sign here.
[05:17] ---
    This place sure looks old...
[05:22] ---
    I wouldn't be surprised
    if there were ghosts.
[05:26] ---
    Are you scared, Kanon?
[05:28] ---
    Of course not!
[05:29] ---
    But before we open it...
[05:31] ---
    You... saw... me...
[05:37] ---
    Stop messing around!
[05:39] ---
    Sorry, my bad. You just got so scared.
[05:42] ---
    Someone's here.
[05:43] ---
    No way!
[05:50] ---
    Excuse me...
[05:52] ---
    Who are you?
[05:55] ---
    I'm...
[05:57] ---
    Don't worry! She's got feet!
[05:58] ---
    Really?
[06:01] ---
    Heanna-san?
[06:03] ---
    I heard this was the club room
    for the School Idol Club.
[06:07] ---
    Did you need something?
[06:09] ---
    Well... You see, I'm a bit curious
    about school idols.
[06:15] ---
    You're curious? Wait, doesn't at mean...
[06:18] ---
    Do you wish to join?
[06:19] ---
    Not exactly. I just wanted
    to hear about it.
[06:22] ---
    School idols are magnificent!
    They're the best!
[06:24] ---
    Filled with the brilliance of youth
    and they're the best in the universe!
[06:27] ---
    Just write your name here
    and your class here and you, too,
[06:30] ---
    can be a school idol starting today!
[06:33] ---
    Keke-chan...
[06:34] ---
    Let's rewind just a bit.
[06:39] ---
    Whoa.
[06:40] ---
    This is even more amazing
    than what I saw before...
[06:43] ---
    Such a huge stage.
[06:45] ---
    Yes! This is the stage
    for the finals at Love Live.
[06:49] ---
    So many people come to watch!
[06:51] ---
    If we make it here,
    we'll be famous, right?
[06:54] ---
    But of course! Sunny Passion won
    last year, and they're currently--
[06:58] ---
    "Following"
    "Followers"
[07:01] ---
    98,000... Galaxy!
[07:05] ---
    Galaxy?
[07:07] ---
    I'm in. I'm absolutely, totally
    going to do it. I'll be a school idol.
[07:10] ---
    Are you sure?
[07:11] ---
    Yes. Let's do our best together.
[07:15] ---
    Now you have three.
[07:22] ---
    It's so huge!
[07:24] ---
    I never knew this place existed.
[07:26] ---
    We could practice
    with so many people here!
[07:29] ---
    So... What did you want me to do?
[07:33] ---
    Well... Let's start off with
    some simple steps.
[07:39] ---
    Can you do that?
[07:44] ---
    Wow...
[07:46] ---
    You're so good!
[07:47] ---
    Yeah. Looks like you've got
    the basics down. Then how about this?
[07:51] ---
    That's nothing.
[07:54] ---
    Wow...
[07:55] ---
    Is this what they mean when
    someone can think on their feet?
[08:00] ---
    Probably.
[08:01] ---
    Wait... Did you always
    want to be a school idol?
[08:04] ---
    Huh? Not exactly.
[08:07] ---
    I... just used to be in show business.
[08:10] ---
    Show business...
[08:12] ---
    Wait... like TV?
[08:14] ---
    Yeah, a few times.
[08:15] ---
    No way...
[08:16] ---
    This is fate! This is destiny!
    We're destined to win the Love Live!
[08:21] ---
    Well, I did see watch some videos
    of the group who won the Love Live
[08:26] ---
    and I figured I could beat them.
[08:28] ---
    Really? I thought it was
    totally impossible.
[08:32] ---
    So... About the center.
[08:36] ---
    Center?
[08:37] ---
    Yes. You're a group,
    so you'll need a center.
[08:41] ---
    Oh, right. It was just
    the two of us the other day,
[08:44] ---
    so I didn't really think about that.
[08:46] ---
    I guess we will have to decide that
    if it becomes the three of us.
[08:49] ---
    I mean, there are various ways
    you can go about this...
[08:53] ---
    I choose Kanon.
[08:54] ---
    But it's best if
    the best dancer and singer...
[08:58] ---
    Huh?
[08:59] ---
    I choose Kanon!
[09:01] ---
    Yeah, I think Kanon-chan
    should be the center, too.
[09:04] ---
    Kanon-chan's the only option.
    The one who created this group is...
[09:09] ---
    Yes, it was Kanon.
[09:11] ---
    Hold up!
[09:14] ---
    I-Is it really that simple?
[09:17] ---
    What do you mean?
[09:18] ---
    The past and future don't really matter.
[09:20] ---
    If you want to win, you need someone
    with experience and talent in the center.
[09:23] ---
    Isn't that obvious?
[09:25] ---
    Exactly.
[09:26] ---
    But that's not all it takes
    to be a center.
[09:29] ---
    You also need something like charisma
    that you can't see with your eyes.
[09:33] ---
    That might be true, but how do you
    measure something like that?
[09:38] ---
    "School Idol Center Elections!!"
[09:40] ---
    We are currently holding an election
    at the School Idol Club
[09:44] ---
    to decide who should be the center.
[09:46] ---
    Please vote for whoever you think
    should represent our school!
[09:51] ---
    This is embarrassing.
[09:52] ---
    Well, you're a school idol now.
[09:59] ---
    Don't worry. This isn't like
    an audition or getting scouted.
[10:03] ---
    I just have to beat these two.
    That should be...
[10:08] ---
    No way...
[10:09] ---
    "Sumire" "Keke" "Kanon" "Voting Results"
[10:10] ---
    See? I knew they'd pick Kanon-chan.
[10:11] ---
    "Congrats on being the center!
    Kanon"
[10:13] ---
    Exactly what I thought!
[10:15] ---
    Why don't you become
    the club president, too?
[10:18] ---
    What? Wait a sec. That seems a bit...
[10:24] ---
    I won't accept this.
[10:27] ---
    I absolutely, totally
    will not accept this!
[10:29] ---
    Why, though? I'm totally better than you
    in both singing and dancing.
[10:34] ---
    This is what everyone decided
    after you girls showed your stuff.
[10:38] ---
    Probably something with aura... Flair...
[10:41] ---
    Kanon seems more like
    the center than you and me.
[10:52] ---
    I quit.
[10:54] ---
    Hmph. If I can't be the center,
    there's no point in me being here.
[11:00] ---
    Wait... Sumire-chan?
[11:02] ---
    Ow!
[11:04] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[11:21] ---
    We're not going to be able to
    practice today at this rate.
[11:25] ---
    Let's go home.
[11:26] ---
    Chi-chan, thanks for always
    spending so much time with us.
[11:30] ---
    I want to help you two out!
    Don't even worry about it.
[11:34] ---
    Well, see you two later.
[11:39] ---
    What?
[11:40] ---
    I mean, if we let her be the center,
    Sumire-chan won't leave.
[11:45] ---
    Then let's let her do it.
[11:47] ---
    I'm not so sure about that...
[11:49] ---
    Every school idol
    dreams of being the center.
[11:51] ---
    You should be proud.
[11:53] ---
    I wonder why Sumire-chan
    seems so obsessed about that...
[12:19] ---
    What is she doing?
[12:24] ---
    Excuse me...
[12:25] ---
    Yes?
[12:26] ---
    Do you know where the station is?
[12:29] ---
    Don't talk to me if you're not a scout!
[12:36] ---
    A scout?
[12:53] ---
    Giant isopod... Giant isopod...
[12:57] ---
    Giant, giant, giant... Giant isopod..
[13:01] ---
    Giant isopod...
[13:04] ---
    That's so cute. So that's
    show business, huh?
[13:09] ---
    You... saw... it...
[13:14] ---
    S-Sumire-chan?
[13:19] ---
    No!
[13:24] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[13:33] ---
    Where... Huh? What the heck?
[13:37] ---
    What's...
[13:39] ---
    What is this?!
[13:43] ---
    Good morning.
[13:45] ---
    Sumire-chan...?
[13:47] ---
    You saw something that
    you shouldn't have seen. And so...
[13:52] ---
    ...you'll just have to forget it.
[13:54] ---
    Those clothes...
    Wait, are you from a shrine...
[13:57] ---
    Don't worry. It'll be over quickly
    if you just stay still.
[14:01] ---
    Let's see... "Once you've gotten this far,
[14:04] ---
    you will beat your target over the head
    a hundred times to make them forget"...
[14:08] ---
    You're on-the-spot learning?!
[14:09] ---
    "The Rules to Curses"
[14:09] ---
    "Next, dump two liters of holy water
    on them, tie them up"...
[14:13] ---
    Hold up!
[14:14] ---
    Quiet!
[14:16] ---
    Wh-What's going on?
    I can't seem to remember anything.
[14:27] ---
    Giant isopod... Giant isopod...
[14:31] ---
    Giant, giant, giant... Giant isopod...
[14:35] ---
    Giant isopod... Giant isopod...
[14:40] ---
    -- Giant, giant, giant...
    Giant isopod...
[14:41] ---
    --I'm sorry, I lied.
    It's stuck in my head.
    -- Giant, giant, giant... Giant isopod...
[14:44] ---
    I'm sure it is. Don't worry.
    I'll put you out of your misery.
[14:48] ---
    Wait, wait, wait! I won't tell anyone.
    I promise I won't!
[14:51] ---
    You tracked me all the way here.
    Like I can trust you.
[14:54] ---
    I didn't track you here.
[14:57] ---
    I was just wondering why
    you want to be the center so badly.
[15:07] ---
    Can I get this good luck charm?
[15:09] ---
    So this is where I was locked up?
[15:13] ---
    Here.
[15:15] ---
    Thanks.
[15:21] ---
    It's exactly what it looks like.
[15:25] ---
    Ever since I was little,
    I did a bunch of auditions,
[15:30] ---
    because I wanted to be the star.
[15:32] ---
    I worked really hard
    when I was a child actress...
[15:36] ---
    --But no matter how hard I tried,
    I would always end up with a small role.
[15:39] ---
    -- Giant isopod... Giant isopod...
    --But no matter how hard I tried,
    I would always end up with a small role.
[15:42] ---
    So that's why you wanted to be the center.
[15:45] ---
    Yeah.
[15:46] ---
    You guys are amateurs,
    so I figured I'd have the upper hand.
[15:50] ---
    But I guess not.
[15:52] ---
    You don't know for sure though.
[15:55] ---
    No, this settles it.
[15:58] ---
    It just wasn't meant to be with me.
[16:03] ---
    No matter how hard I try,
    I'll never be able to shine in the center.
[16:09] ---
    Tell the other two that I'm sorry.
[16:16] ---
    She thought she'd have the upper hand
    against school idols...
[16:19] ---
    I beg your pardon?
[16:21] ---
    Keke-chan?
[16:22] ---
    That is absolutely insulting
    to school idols! Blasphemy!
[16:27] ---
    Well, Sumire-chan did apologize...
[16:30] ---
    I thought she was serious,
    but she tricked me!
[16:33] ---
    I shall punish her!
[16:35] ---
    Punish...?
[16:36] ---
    First, I'll start with ice down her back,
    then about ten minutes of tickling...
[16:45] ---
    Wait.
[16:47] ---
    Get your ass to the roof
    at lunchtime... please.
[16:53] ---
    Didn't you hear? I'm not interested
    in school idols any...
[16:55] ---
    Your ass better be there... please.
[17:01] ---
    What are we going to do?
[17:09] ---
    You're late!
[17:11] ---
    What did you want?
[17:12] ---
    You insulted school idols.
[17:15] ---
    So I shall punish you
    on behalf of all the school idols.
[17:19] ---
    What? I apologized already.
[17:22] ---
    Do you know how serious school idols
    work to stand on that stage?
[17:27] ---
    And you had the nerve to say
    you'd have the upper hand?
[17:33] ---
    There.
[17:35] ---
    Sumire-chan...
[17:39] ---
    I worked so hard to do that dance.
[17:42] ---
    Don't underestimate show business.
[17:45] ---
    This is nothing.
[17:48] ---
    Even then, the spotlight
    will never shine down on me.
[17:50] ---
    Even in this world of amateurs.
[17:54] ---
    We are not amateurs!
[17:57] ---
    Again?
[18:00] ---
    Move.
[18:08] ---
    School idols, right?
[18:09] ---
    Yeah, apparently they're
    practicing on the roof.
[18:15] ---
    Why did you open up the roof to them?
[18:18] ---
    Because there was nowhere else.
[18:20] ---
    But...
[18:21] ---
    They are clearly working hard,
    so I don't believe
[18:24] ---
    that we should take away
    their opportunity to grow.
[18:27] ---
    Don't you think that's
    what your mother would say?
[18:37] ---
    I guess it's not going to stop.
[18:39] ---
    What are you going to do
    about Sumire-chan?
[18:42] ---
    Well...
[18:43] ---
    I get how she feels,
[18:45] ---
    because I thought the same thing
    when I couldn't sing.
[18:48] ---
    That it was my fate.
    There's no point in trying.
[18:52] ---
    But that wasn't really the case, right?
[18:54] ---
    Yeah...
[18:55] ---
    Then I think you need to tell her.
[19:00] ---
    No matter how hard I try,
    I'll never be able to shine in the center.
[19:05] ---
    Right now, the one who can understand
    Sumire-chan the most is...
[19:22] ---
    --I guess people really don't
    show up when it's raining.
[19:24] ---
    --Next up,
    --I guess people really don't
    show up when it's raining.
[19:25] ---
    we have a song from the winners of
    the special newcomer award, Kuukaa!
[19:27] ---
    This shining shooting star
[19:31] ---
    We chase after it and become stars
[19:34] ---
    We won't stop, we can't stop,
    even if we're still small
[19:41] ---
    Because we want to continue dreaming
[19:45] ---
    The same dream together forever
[19:49] ---
    Let's hold our hands together tightly
    and go, Tiny Stars
[19:52] ---
    I just...
[19:54] ---
    Found you!
[19:55] ---
    Sparkle!
[19:57] ---
    I figured you'd be here.
[19:59] ---
    You're so persistent.
[20:01] ---
    I wanted to talk to you.
[20:05] ---
    Sumire Heanna-san...
[20:07] ---
    Here's my card!
[20:10] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School Idol Club
    Kanon Shibuya"
[20:12] ---
    Huh?
[20:13] ---
    Sumire-san, I've come to scout you!
[20:17] ---
    In order for us to continue
    being school idols,
[20:20] ---
    we need to produce worthy results.
[20:23] ---
    I want you to help us out with your
    show business wisdom and techniques.
[20:28] ---
    I told you, I'm--
[20:30] ---
    If you want the center position,
    come take it from me.
[20:34] ---
    When I saw you, I decided that
    I wanted to be center.
[20:40] ---
    So come take it from me.
[20:42] ---
    I think if we compete over it,
    it'll also help the group.
[20:46] ---
    Don't mock me. You saw me.
[20:48] ---
    I was actually in show business.
[20:51] ---
    There's no way I'd lose
    to a newbie amateur--
[20:53] ---
    Then prove it.
[20:57] ---
    How much?
[20:59] ---
    I'm asking you how much
    you're going to pay!
[21:01] ---
    If you're going to scout me,
    I obviously need my down payment.
[21:05] ---
    Why would--
[21:06] ---
    I have it.
[21:12] ---
    That's from my shrine...
[21:15] ---
    How about that?
[21:21] ---
    This doesn't work at all.
[21:23] ---
    Really?
[21:25] ---
    I mean...
[21:27] ---
    Oh, it's the same.
[21:31] ---
    But we don't know for sure yet.
[21:38] ---
    As long as you don't give up,
    your dream just might be further up ahead.
[21:49] ---
    It's sunny!
[21:51] ---
    It's summer!
[21:52] ---
    Woohoo!
[21:58] ---
    All right, let's begin.
[22:02] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[22:04] ---
    Starting today, I'll teach you...
[22:08] ---
    ...the real world of show business!
[22:13] ---
    Galaxy!
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
[23:37] ---
    Next time, "Passion Island."

    I had always wanted to be
    a star ever since I was little.
[00:06] ---
    Giant isopod
[00:08] ---
    And then, I found out about school idols.
[00:11] ---
    98,000...
[00:13] ---
    I'm in. I'm absolutely,
    totally going to do it.
[00:15] ---
    But since I lost the center position,
    I was disappointed and decided to leave.
[00:15] ---
    "Sumire" "Keke" "Kanon" "Voting Results"
[00:19] ---
    If you want the center position,
    come take it from me.
[00:21] ---
    Your dream just might be further up ahead.
[00:25] ---
    And that's how Kanon and the others were
    able to scout someone as fabulous as me.
[00:29] ---
    Galaxy!
[00:44] ---
    Arashi-san, do you have a moment?
[00:48] ---
    Contest?
[00:49] ---
    Yes. There's a contest that's going to be
    held during summer vacation
[00:53] ---
    and they want one of
    our students to compete.
[00:56] ---
    We were hoping you would be able to do it.
[01:00] ---
    And it's this month...
[01:02] ---
    What do you think?
[01:07] ---
    Please give me some time
    to think about it.
[01:11] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:17] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:22] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[01:39] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[01:43] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[01:47] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[01:50] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[01:52] ---
    The sky's so bright
[01:54] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:00] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:04] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:06] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:12] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:14] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:17] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:22] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:28] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:33] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:41] ---
    "Passion Island"
[02:49] ---
    How is it so hot?
[02:51] ---
    We're finally done with exams and were
    supposed to start practice today...
[02:55] ---
    It's like the hottest day ever.
[02:57] ---
    We're supposed to make sure to stay
    hydrated and avoid outdoor activities.
[03:01] ---
    Well, yeah. Practicing outside
    in this isn't happening.
[03:05] ---
    What are you talking about?
    Love Live entries are starting soon.
[03:10] ---
    Love Live?
[03:12] ---
    You don't even know what that is?!
[03:14] ---
    How would I? I have no interest
    in amateur competitions.
[03:17] ---
    It's not amateur! The Love Live is
    a national event for school idols!
[03:23] ---
    And the event this year is the biggest yet
    with the highest possibility of entrants!
[03:28] ---
    Hmph! When I say amateur, I mean amateur.
[03:32] ---
    I've been living in
    show business after all.
[03:36] ---
    You mean as a giant isopod?
[03:38] ---
    Ka-no-n!
[03:40] ---
    Er, Keke-chan really wanted to know...
[03:44] ---
    But it's amazing that Sumire-chan
    fit in so quickly.
[03:47] ---
    And it seems like Keke-chan
    really loves her, too.
[03:52] ---
    How?! I've been against someone so
    irresponsible joining us from the start!
[03:57] ---
    I'm not irresponsible.
[03:58] ---
    I'm just saying that realistically,
    we're not going to be able to practice!
[04:01] ---
    That's not true!
[04:07] ---
    You okay?
[04:08] ---
    Yes! It's perfectly fine out here!
[04:12] ---
    Actually, I can feel a breeze here,
    so it's actually coo...
[04:18] ---
    Coo?
[04:19] ---
    Coo...
[04:21] ---
    Keke-chan!
[04:24] ---
    I thought I was going to die...
[04:26] ---
    Yeah, let's just not.
[04:28] ---
    There's no air conditioning
    in here, either.
[04:30] ---
    Isn't there somewhere cool
    we can practice?
[04:33] ---
    Well, there are the lesson rooms
    for the music program...
[04:36] ---
    Really?!
[04:37] ---
    But we're in the regular curriculum
    so we won't be able to use them.
[04:41] ---
    Right.
[04:42] ---
    We might be able to if Chisato asks
    since she's in the music program.
[04:46] ---
    You use them all the time, right?
[04:47] ---
    Nice idea!
[04:48] ---
    Let's not. Even if they say okay,
[04:52] ---
    that's not fair to
    the other kids in our program.
[04:54] ---
    I don't think it's right for us
    to have to ask to let us use it.
[04:59] ---
    I mean, we all go to the same school.
[05:01] ---
    But that's how this school is.
    The music program is special.
[05:08] ---
    Okay, it's been five minutes.
[05:11] ---
    Okay!
[05:12] ---
    Here we go! Ready, and...
[05:15] ---
    First comes rock! Rock-paper-scissors!
[05:17] ---
    --Yay!
    --Galaxy!
[05:20] ---
    Here!
[05:22] ---
    Get fanning, loser!
[05:29] ---
    How relaxing...
[05:31] ---
    Having air conditioning is bliss.
[05:33] ---
    Yeah, but we're not going to
    be able to practice here.
[05:37] ---
    What if we cleared out your room a bit?
[05:41] ---
    Well, my dad's working, so...
[05:44] ---
    And I can't be too loud
    at my place either.
[05:49] ---
    I know. What about your place,
    Sumire-chan? It's a shrine.
[05:52] ---
    There's some shade there, right?
[05:54] ---
    Yeah... but there's not much room.
[05:58] ---
    That's fine, as long as
    the three of us can practice.
[06:01] ---
    Yes! Even if it's no bigger than
    the forehead of a cat.
[06:06] ---
    Really?
[06:12] ---
    Welcome in--
[06:15] ---
    Hello.
[06:17] ---
    Pa!
[06:19] ---
    So you are here!
[06:21] ---
    Sunny... Passion!
[06:28] ---
    Huh?
[06:28] ---
    I asked you to pinch me!
[06:32] ---
    Here.
[06:34] ---
    That doesn't hurt.
[06:35] ---
    You're just numb from all the ice.
[06:38] ---
    I guess we should do proper introductions.
[06:41] ---
    I'm Yuuna from Sunny Passion.
[06:44] ---
    I'm Mao.
[06:45] ---
    It's nice to meet you!
[06:46] ---
    I'm Keke Tang.
[06:47] ---
    I came here from Shanghai because
    you inspired me to become a school idol.
[06:52] ---
    Your performances have always moved me
[06:55] ---
    and I've always tried to learn...
[06:57] ---
    Aiyah! You think I'm weird! This is bad!
[07:02] ---
    I need to cool down
    with some shaved ice...
[07:06] ---
    No, really. Calm down.
[07:08] ---
    Okay...
[07:10] ---
    A concert?
[07:11] ---
    Yeah. We do a concert every year
    during summer vacation on our island.
[07:17] ---
    We were hoping to invite you
    as this year's guests.
[07:21] ---
    To your concert?
[07:22] ---
    Are you sure?
[07:25] ---
    You don't need to be so reserved.
[07:27] ---
    It's not like the Love Live
    where we'll be ranked.
[07:31] ---
    Though the point of the concert
    is to liven up the island.
[07:35] ---
    What are you going to do?
[07:37] ---
    Well...
[07:41] ---
    You'll come too, right, Chi-chan?
[07:42] ---
    Huh? Sure...
[07:44] ---
    Then we'd love to! Please let us perform!
[07:47] ---
    Yay! See? I told you talking to them
    in person was the best idea.
[07:52] ---
    Well, it's not like they could have
    refused when we showed up like this.
[07:58] ---
    Are you sure about this?
[07:59] ---
    Yes, of course!
[08:01] ---
    If there are places for us
    to sing right now,
[08:04] ---
    we'd like to take every opportunity!
[08:07] ---
    I see you're a school idol
    through and through.
[08:12] ---
    I can see it in your face.
[08:13] ---
    R-Really?
[08:17] ---
    Anyway, we'll get back to you
    with the details.
[08:20] ---
    Aw, I'll miss you.
[08:23] ---
    It's time for our practice.
[08:25] ---
    We do it every day.
[08:26] ---
    I know. Why don't you practice with us?
[08:30] ---
    Yeah, is there anywhere
    to practice around here?
[08:35] ---
    There is!
[08:37] ---
    Lead us there immediately!
[08:39] ---
    To your shrine!
[08:43] ---
    Okay, fine...
[08:54] ---
    Wow...
[08:56] ---
    School idols are this skilled?
[08:59] ---
    Well, they are the Tokyo reps.
[09:02] ---
    I'm overjoyed. Now I can die
    without any regrets!
[09:06] ---
    I'm surprised you brought that.
[09:09] ---
    How do you usually practice?
[09:12] ---
    Huh? It's nothing special.
[09:16] ---
    Usually, we just have Chi-chan coach us.
[09:19] ---
    What's your regimen?
[09:20] ---
    It's impressive that you could put on
    such a performance as newcomers.
[09:24] ---
    So we were wondering
    what your practices were like.
[09:28] ---
    Of course, no worries if it's a secret.
[09:31] ---
    Oh, no. It's not a secret or anything.
[09:38] ---
    Who thought of this?
[09:40] ---
    Oh, me...
[09:43] ---
    It's very well thought out.
    You're not a school idol?
[09:47] ---
    No, I'm just helping out.
[09:50] ---
    Chi-chan's been dancing
    ever since she was little
[09:53] ---
    and is majoring in dance
    in our music program.
[09:58] ---
    I see, so that's why.
[10:01] ---
    Of course.
[10:04] ---
    Okay, why don't we go running?
[10:07] ---
    But the sun's still out.
[10:10] ---
    Oh, that's nothing. Come on, let's go.
[10:14] ---
    They're definitely from a tropical island.
[10:16] ---
    Are we going?
[10:18] ---
    Of course! They invited us! We're going!
[10:23] ---
    Guess we're going...
[10:25] ---
    Oh, you can wait here, Chi-chan.
[10:29] ---
    Sure...
[10:32] ---
    Thank you for everything today.
[10:34] ---
    No, we should be thanking you.
[10:37] ---
    See you at the concert.
[10:39] ---
    Yes.
[10:41] ---
    We will do it even if
    my life depends on it!
[10:44] ---
    Just shut up and drink some water.
[10:46] ---
    We'll be waiting for you.
[10:49] ---
    Oh, I've got something to do.
[10:54] ---
    Oh, sure...
[10:56] ---
    Um...
[10:59] ---
    Yes?
[11:01] ---
    There's something I wanted to ask you two.
[11:06] ---
    Can they win the Love Live?
[11:08] ---
    What do you think?
[11:09] ---
    If you stopped us just to ask us that,
[11:13] ---
    you must really want to know
    what we think.
[11:17] ---
    Yes.
[11:19] ---
    Well?
[11:20] ---
    We should probably tell her.
[11:23] ---
    They're great at singing
    and they work well as a team.
[11:27] ---
    But winning would be hard.
[11:30] ---
    There's something about them
    that's not their own...
[11:33] ---
    Particularly with their dancing.
[11:35] ---
    Their own...
[11:36] ---
    That's partially why
    we wanted to see them.
[11:40] ---
    They're good, but they
    lacked that extra enthusiasm.
[11:45] ---
    We figured it out when we heard
    that you were their coach.
[11:48] ---
    Huh?
[11:49] ---
    With their dancing right now,
    they all trust you and depend on you.
[11:55] ---
    But then they'll never be able to
    move forward on their own.
[12:01] ---
    But if you were a part of that group,
    they might've actually been a threat.
[12:17] ---
    What? You're not going to the concert?
[12:20] ---
    Yeah, not just that. I'm planning on doing
    something else this summer vacation.
[12:26] ---
    Away from all of you.
[12:28] ---
    Chi-chan...
[12:35] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[12:38] ---
    I came up with a practice regimen
    and some choreography.
[12:41] ---
    Check it out later.
[12:42] ---
    Thanks.
[12:43] ---
    Good luck with your dancing.
[12:46] ---
    That's amazing that you were
    picked to represent our school!
[12:49] ---
    I'm sorry our schedules overlapped.
[12:52] ---
    Leave the rest to me!
[12:55] ---
    I'll show them how dancing
    in show business is really done!
[13:02] ---
    We don't need to learn the giant isopod dance.
[13:04] ---
    Don't call me a giant isopod!
[13:07] ---
    What's with those clothes?
[13:08] ---
    Because I live in show business,
    my vacation clothes must be appropriate!
[13:13] ---
    We're not going on vacation.
[13:15] ---
    Vaca!
[13:17] ---
    Hey, it's about time.
[13:19] ---
    Okay, Keke-chan and
    Sumire-chan, gather round!
[13:23] ---
    Okay.
[13:25] ---
    What?
[13:26] ---
    --Yes!
    --Yes!
[13:28] ---
    Yes!
[13:39] ---
    You sure do fall over a lot.
[13:42] ---
    Shut up.
[13:45] ---
    Here's some water.
[13:47] ---
    Thank you.
[13:48] ---
    It's actually not shaking that badly.
[13:50] ---
    I'm so nervous thinking about
    seeing them again.
[13:54] ---
    I couldn't sleep at all yesterday.
[13:56] ---
    But now, I'm okay! And we can
    practice on this boat!
[14:03] ---
    Why is the floor shaking... If it didn't
    shake I would be... I would be...
[14:11] ---
    She fell asleep.
[14:13] ---
    She's such a pain.
[14:35] ---
    What are you doing?
[14:38] ---
    Oh, yoga! Wait, or is it a ballet pose?
[14:42] ---
    Did you awaken to some powers?
[14:43] ---
    Don't talk to me.
[14:46] ---
    I can't... think of any lyrics.
[14:51] ---
    They usually come to me when I do this.
[14:54] ---
    Really?
[14:55] ---
    The song and choreography
    are already done,
[14:57] ---
    so I thought I'd write about
    you two and Chi-chan, but...
[15:01] ---
    Hurry up. We have to
    memorize them, you know?
[15:05] ---
    Yeah... Where's Keke-chan?
[15:07] ---
    She's out like a light. I'm sure
    she'll be fine when she wakes up.
[15:14] ---
    It's hard to believe
    that island is part of Tokyo.
[15:20] ---
    And there are people there
    working hard to be school idols.
[15:25] ---
    School idols really are amazing.
[15:30] ---
    Welcome to our island!
[15:36] ---
    Thank you!
[15:37] ---
    Sunny Passion is actually
    welcoming us... I'm so happy.
[15:44] ---
    This isn't much, but...
[15:46] ---
    Pa!
[15:47] ---
    Oh, you didn't have to.
[15:49] ---
    I guess you do actually
    think things through sometimes.
[15:53] ---
    Now that you're here,
    we want you to relax and have fun.
[15:58] ---
    That's our wish!
[16:01] ---
    And so...
[16:03] ---
    Y-Yes?
[16:06] ---
    Yay!
[16:07] ---
    Let's have a blast today!
[16:10] ---
    Hiyah!
[16:13] ---
    Pa!
[16:15] ---
    This feels great!
[16:17] ---
    A-Are we doing this?
[16:21] ---
    Hey, you go first.
[16:24] ---
    Why me?!
[16:26] ---
    Aw. I guess I'll go over there, too.
[16:31] ---
    Who's the center?
[16:33] ---
    I guess I am?
[16:35] ---
    Then show us how it's done!
[16:37] ---
    But... I can't deal with heights!
[16:41] ---
    Oh, you'll be fine. Now go!
[16:43] ---
    Save me!
[16:45] ---
    Kanon!
[16:51] ---
    I'm not sure if that was
    diving or just falling.
[16:55] ---
    It's delicious. It tastes like mango.
[16:57] ---
    No, it's pineapple.
[16:59] ---
    No, it's banana.
[17:03] ---
    That's passion fruit ice cream.
    It's a specialty here.
[17:06] ---
    What?! You even have your own ice cream?
[17:10] ---
    Of course not.
[17:14] ---
    The wind feels so nice!
[17:16] ---
    Yes.
[17:20] ---
    Galaxy!
[17:21] ---
    That's what you get for
    wearing such a big hat.
[17:26] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[17:27] ---
    Galaxy!
[17:32] ---
    Wow... it's so pretty.
[17:36] ---
    I can't believe there are so many stars.
[17:38] ---
    This island is great
    for observing the stars.
[17:42] ---
    The sky is sparkling.
[17:46] ---
    You're already tired? You're such a child.
[17:49] ---
    Shut up.
[17:51] ---
    Starting tomorrow, we're going to be
    practicing until the concert.
[17:54] ---
    So you should get some sleep.
[17:56] ---
    Right.
[17:58] ---
    I wish Chi-chan could've seen this.
[18:08] ---
    Sorry that there are only two beds.
[18:10] ---
    To make up for it, lodging is free.
[18:13] ---
    But...
[18:14] ---
    Don't worry about it.
[18:16] ---
    Just make sure you put on
    the best performance ever.
[18:20] ---
    We'll do our best!
[18:21] ---
    Even if it costs us our lives.
[18:23] ---
    Stop putting our lives on the line!
[18:26] ---
    I get this one all to myself!
[18:28] ---
    Hey, no fair! I can't sleep unless
    there's a wall on my left side.
[18:33] ---
    That's your problem.
[18:35] ---
    Rock-paper-scissors.
[18:36] ---
    No. I'm going to lose.
[18:38] ---
    "Fortunes"
[18:39] ---
    So let's draw lots.
[18:40] ---
    Do you think I'd actually
    fall for your schemes?
[18:43] ---
    They aren't schemes!
[18:44] ---
    Then how are we going to decide?
[18:46] ---
    Fine. How about thumb wrestling?
[18:50] ---
    Heh.
[18:51] ---
    Now you've done it.
[18:53] ---
    What?
[18:54] ---
    I happen to be a master thumb wrestler
    thanks to the skills my mother taught me.
[18:59] ---
    Oh, please. You're all talk.
[19:02] ---
    Let's find out if I'm all talk or not.
[19:08] ---
    Here we go. Ready...
[19:12] ---
    Eek!
[19:13] ---
    1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10! Galaxy!
[19:16] ---
    No fair! No fair!
[19:17] ---
    You fool. This is the world
    of show business!
[19:21] ---
    You let your guard down, you lose.
[19:23] ---
    Let's go to sleep already.
[19:25] ---
    Wait, you get your own?
[19:27] ---
    "Fortunes"
[19:30] ---
    Wall... Wall...
[19:34] ---
    W-Wall...
[19:41] ---
    Kanon?
[20:02] ---
    What are you doing?
[20:04] ---
    Oh, I know! You're either stretching
    or becoming one with the Earth...
[20:10] ---
    Don't talk to me.
[20:15] ---
    I still can't think of any...
[20:17] ---
    What?
[20:19] ---
    Keke-chan... What exactly is Chi-chan?
[20:24] ---
    Um...
[20:25] ---
    I don't know what to write.
[20:27] ---
    It's not like she's in our group
    and she's not our coach.
[20:36] ---
    Kanon.
[20:39] ---
    Maybe we should invite Chisato-san
    to be a school idol again.
[20:44] ---
    Keke-chan...
[20:45] ---
    If Chisato-san was in our group,
    I think we can become even better.
[20:53] ---
    Yeah... I want us to
    get better for your sake, too.
[20:59] ---
    So I was also hoping
    Chi-chan would join us.
[21:04] ---
    Then why don't we?
[21:06] ---
    Chi-chan told me when
    we were really young...
[21:13] ---
    I'm going to do something you can't do.
[21:17] ---
    Something like your singing!
    Something I can love and obsess over!
[21:24] ---
    I'm going to do my best!
[21:28] ---
    And then she started dance.
[21:31] ---
    I see...
[21:34] ---
    It's because Chi-chan was by my side
[21:38] ---
    that I was able to keep singing
    and not give up.
[21:42] ---
    I want to put those feelings
    into this song...
[21:59] ---
    Okay.
[22:10] ---
    "School Wit"
    "Dear Yuigaoka Girls' High School"
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together

[00:06] ---
    Hey, this is our spot.
[00:09] ---
    You're not allowed to use it.
[00:11] ---
    I'm sorry. I didn't know...
[00:13] ---
    You live around here, don't you?
    Why don't you know?
[00:16] ---
    This is the first time
    I came to this park, so...
[00:19] ---
    Huh... Well, whatever.
[00:22] ---
    These things you brought with you.
[00:25] ---
    We'll take them as payment
    for you barging in here.
[00:27] ---
    You can't have them!
[00:28] ---
    No!
[00:29] ---
    You got in our way!
[00:31] ---
    Yeah!
[00:32] ---
    Hey, she started crying.
[00:35] ---
    I'm not crying!
[00:36] ---
    Hey!
[00:41] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[00:44] ---
    Don't be mean to Chi-chan!
[00:46] ---
    Who the heck are you?
[00:47] ---
    Just give that back to Chi-chan!
    It's important to her!
[00:53] ---
    I didn't want it anyway!
[00:58] ---
    There.
[00:58] ---
    Thanks... But they might
    try to get back at you.
[01:02] ---
    It's okay. I'll protect you, Chi-chan.
    Call me if you ever need me.
[01:08] ---
    Kanon-chan...
[01:11] ---
    That was the moment I realized...
    This isn't how I wanted things to be.
[01:17] ---
    I wanted to help Kanon-chan someday.
[01:22] ---
    No matter what.
[01:26] ---
    Okay!
[01:28] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:33] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:56] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[02:00] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[02:04] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[02:06] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[02:09] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:11] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:17] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:21] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:23] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:28] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:31] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:34] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:39] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:45] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:50] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:59] ---
    That tickles... Jeez.
[03:02] ---
    Ow, ow! What the heck?
[03:05] ---
    Morning.
[03:07] ---
    You two sure are close.
[03:09] ---
    Huh? N-No, we're not!
[03:11] ---
    Get ready, and we're going to
    meet outside in 15 minutes.
[03:15] ---
    Good morning!
[03:16] ---
    You're awake?
[03:18] ---
    We're gonna start training
    for our concert starting today!
[03:22] ---
    And here's your regimen for today.
[03:27] ---
    No way...
[03:28] ---
    Jogging 10 kilometers?
[03:29] ---
    That's no problem
    as long as we're with them!
[03:32] ---
    Says the one who has zero energy.
[03:36] ---
    I'll catch up.
[03:39] ---
    It takes me 30 minutes to do my hair.
[03:42] ---
    You can do that later.
[03:44] ---
    Silly. Appearances are important,
    even if we're just training.
[03:48] ---
    That's what it takes
    to survive in show business.
[03:52] ---
    Anyway, they thought up
    this regimen for us.
[03:55] ---
    You are absolutely not allowed to skip it.
[03:57] ---
    I'm not going to skip it!
[03:58] ---
    With all of this training,
    we'll get even more energy and stamina...
[04:03] ---
    ...than before...
[04:06] ---
    Are you okay?
[04:08] ---
    I swear, we just keep trying to
    nurse you back to health.
[04:11] ---
    Sorry about this.
[04:13] ---
    Maybe she doesn't have all of her energy
    back from all the fun we had yesterday.
[04:17] ---
    She had zero energy to begin with,
    so this was expected.
[04:21] ---
    What do you want to do?
    Head back to your lodgings?
[04:24] ---
    No, that'll make Keke-chan sad.
[04:33] ---
    That was amazing!
[04:35] ---
    And she's back.
[04:37] ---
    Thank goodness.
[04:39] ---
    We're looking forward to
    your performance, too.
[04:43] ---
    All right, let's go look at the stage.
[04:47] ---
    It's fantastic.
[04:48] ---
    Everyone at school is helping to build it.
[04:51] ---
    Everyone at school?
[04:52] ---
    It should look even more
    beautiful by the concert.
[04:56] ---
    There are only so many
    people on the island,
[05:00] ---
    so everyone at school decided to
[05:03] ---
    liven up the island along with us.
[05:07] ---
    For the island...
[05:09] ---
    You feel this mysterious power
[05:10] ---
    when you know you're doing
    something for someone else.
[05:13] ---
    Everything becomes fun,
    even if it's difficult.
[05:20] ---
    What?
[05:21] ---
    Oh, nothing. We need to do our best, too.
[05:27] ---
    You were swaying again.
[05:29] ---
    Right.
[05:29] ---
    Let's take a 10-minute break.
    We'll pick back up where we left off.
[05:34] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[05:44] ---
    Arashi-san.
[05:45] ---
    Are you practicing?
[05:46] ---
    Yeah... the contest is coming up.
[05:50] ---
    I see.
[05:53] ---
    So you're not with Shibuya-san
    and her friends?
[05:56] ---
    Yeah.
[05:57] ---
    Kanon-chan and the others have an event
    coming up, so they aren't here right now.
[06:02] ---
    Are you okay with that?
[06:04] ---
    It sounded like you were rather involved
    with the school idols activities.
[06:09] ---
    So you're worried about us?
[06:11] ---
    Not exactly...
[06:13] ---
    Don't worry. We didn't
    get in a fight or anything.
[06:21] ---
    Withdr--
[06:24] ---
    Did you see that?
[06:25] ---
    N-No... See what?
[06:30] ---
    Nothing.
[06:37] ---
    I messed up.
[06:39] ---
    What are you doing?
[06:41] ---
    Wow... What's this black stuff?
[06:44] ---
    I decided to make them dinner tonight
    since they've been so welcoming to us!
[06:49] ---
    Shanghai xiaolongbao, hong shao rou,
[06:52] ---
    and Shanghai-style crab...
[06:54] ---
    And you somehow ended up with this...
[06:56] ---
    I messed up the cooking times...
[07:00] ---
    Oh, fine.
[07:04] ---
    What? You can cook?
[07:07] ---
    If it's something simple, sure.
[07:14] ---
    I somehow feel very frustrated.
[07:20] ---
    What are you doing?
[07:24] ---
    Did I scare you?
[07:25] ---
    Sorry I didn't notice you.
    I've been writing lyrics.
[07:29] ---
    Huh... So you do the writing, huh?
[07:31] ---
    I sometimes write with Keke-chan,
    but this time, it's just me.
[07:38] ---
    I got some inspiration
    from what you said earlier.
[07:41] ---
    Earlier? Did I say anything
    that inspiring?
[07:45] ---
    You said you felt this power
    when you worked hard for the island.
[07:48] ---
    Ah...
[07:51] ---
    I was just imagining
[07:53] ---
    how we would feel
    if we were in that situation.
[07:59] ---
    You're not doing this for your school?
[08:03] ---
    No. There are even people at our school
    who oppose our activities.
[08:09] ---
    They say they'd support us
    if we weren't school idols, but...
[08:15] ---
    Well, it's not like you can't
    continue being school idols
[08:18] ---
    just because you're not doing it
    for something specific.
[08:22] ---
    There are plenty of people who do it
    just because they love to sing.
[08:25] ---
    Yes. That's how we see it right now.
    I think it's the same way for Chi-chan.
[08:30] ---
    Oh, the dancer girl.
[08:32] ---
    Yes! She has a contest coming up.
[08:35] ---
    She wants to be successful in dance,
    so she's working really hard!
[08:39] ---
    So that's why she's not here.
[08:41] ---
    Chi-chan's loved to dance
    ever since she was little
[08:44] ---
    and has been practicing ever since.
[08:47] ---
    Is it just because she loves to do it?
[08:50] ---
    I don't know all the details,
[08:52] ---
    but I'm not sure if that's enough of
    a reason to do separate things.
[09:06] ---
    It's so good! You two made
    all of this by yourselves?
[09:09] ---
    Wow.
[09:11] ---
    But I think it tastes even better
[09:13] ---
    because all of the ingredients
    from this island are amazing.
[09:15] ---
    Right?
[09:16] ---
    Huh? I, uh...
[09:18] ---
    These dishes are a specialty
    from Keke's homeland, right?
[09:25] ---
    But I didn't make them...
[09:26] ---
    Whatever, just go along
    with what I'm saying.
[09:29] ---
    You need to always be
    smiling and confident
[09:30] ---
    if you want to last in show business.
[09:34] ---
    This is just lying!
[09:35] ---
    It's true that we were both
    standing in the kitchen!
[09:37] ---
    You still piss me off.
[09:39] ---
    What the heck? I cooked all this
    in your place for you.
[09:42] ---
    --No one asked you to!
    --They're so close.
[09:45] ---
    I'm so sorry.
[09:46] ---
    Let's hurry up and eat.
    It's a full moon tonight.
[09:53] ---
    The moon is so big.
[09:55] ---
    It's beautiful.
[09:57] ---
    I should send a picture to Chi-chan.
[10:04] ---
    What is it?
[10:05] ---
    No, it's nothing.
[10:16] ---
    Hello? Did you read them?
[10:19] ---
    Yeah. I think they're great.
    It sounds like something you'd write.
[10:23] ---
    I just felt like.... I want to
    help so many people.
[10:28] ---
    I want to sing for everyone... So, yeah.
[10:31] ---
    --Yeah.
    --Oh,
[10:32] ---
    sorry I kept talking about me.
    Did you just finish practice?
[10:35] ---
    Yeah, I'm heading home.
[10:37] ---
    Your contest is coming up soon, right?
[10:40] ---
    Yeah...
[10:41] ---
    You'll be fine, Chi-chan.
    Just do what you usually do.
[10:45] ---
    Thanks...
[10:52] ---
    Say--
[10:53] ---
    Oh, sorry. Go ahead.
[10:55] ---
    No, you go first.
[10:57] ---
    No, it's not really that important.
[11:01] ---
    It's just... once the contest is over...
[11:07] ---
    No, never mind. What did you want to say?
[11:10] ---
    Actually, mine's not a big deal, either.
[11:12] ---
    So I can tell you the next time I see you.
[11:16] ---
    Well, do your best. Yes! Yes! Yes!
[11:27] ---
    How'd it go?
[11:30] ---
    Um!
[11:32] ---
    I have a request.
[11:38] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[11:52] ---
    Good morning.
[11:53] ---
    Wow, that's amazing.
[11:55] ---
    I used to also do
    some figure skating, too.
[11:58] ---
    If you can dance that well,
    you can probably do anything.
[12:01] ---
    I can't compare to you,
    though, Arashi-san.
[12:04] ---
    The contest is today, isn't it?
[12:06] ---
    Yeah. It's this afternoon.
[12:09] ---
    I thought I'd check over
    the choreography one last time.
[12:13] ---
    I see... So Shibuya-san
    and the others are...
[12:16] ---
    Yeah... They have their concert.
[12:23] ---
    Is something wrong?
[12:24] ---
    No! Um, please do your best!
[12:34] ---
    Um...
[12:36] ---
    It's nothing.
[12:42] ---
    It's nothing.
[12:46] ---
    Um...
[12:47] ---
    Yes?
[12:49] ---
    I see. So you did see it.
[12:52] ---
    Please believe me when I say
    that it wasn't on purpose!
[12:54] ---
    It was just a coincidence, and...
[12:57] ---
    If I can't win the contest, I decided
    I was going to quit this school.
[13:02] ---
    But...
[13:03] ---
    I figured it's not a bad idea
    to train overseas.
[13:07] ---
    Why?
[13:08] ---
    Because I won't be able
    to help Kanon-chan.
[13:11] ---
    In that case, there's no point
    in me to continue dancing here.
[13:15] ---
    I'm sorry, I don't understand.
[13:19] ---
    When I was little,
    I would get bullied a lot.
[13:36] ---
    What is she doing?
[13:37] ---
    She's by herself?
[13:40] ---
    Doesn't she have any friends?
[13:41] ---
    I hate gloomy kids.
[13:42] ---
    I used to be weak, and I had no energy.
[13:46] ---
    And I was always scared of something.
[14:05] ---
    What's wrong?
[14:08] ---
    Kanon-chan always saved me.
[14:13] ---
    Let's go play over there!
[14:15] ---
    But I...
[14:16] ---
    Come on!
[14:20] ---
    I'll be by your side, okay?
[14:31] ---
    See? Isn't this amazing?
[14:34] ---
    Kanon-chan taught me all sorts of things.
[14:38] ---
    Like the importance of moving forward,
[14:40] ---
    how fun it can be to
    discover something new...
[14:44] ---
    So I wanted to be worthy of
    standing next to Kanon-chan one day.
[14:48] ---
    What does that have to do with dance?
[14:51] ---
    Wait...
[14:53] ---
    Yeah. The reason I started dancing
    is because of Kanon-chan.
[14:58] ---
    If I wanted to help Kanon-chan,
    I couldn't be my old self.
[15:02] ---
    I had to be able to do something
    on my own that Kanon-chan couldn't.
[15:07] ---
    On your own?
[15:08] ---
    Yeah. I need to get good at something
    so I could feel confident in myself.
[15:14] ---
    Until then, I decided not to do
    anything with Kanon-chan.
[15:18] ---
    Is that why you didn't
    become a school idol?
[15:22] ---
    Yeah. It's something I decided for myself.
[15:25] ---
    Until I can prove myself in dance
    and actually help out Kanon-chan...
[15:32] ---
    That's why today's the day.
[15:35] ---
    I'm going to get going.
[15:41] ---
    If you...
[15:44] ---
    If you're able to establish yourself
    in dance, what will you do next?
[15:49] ---
    Isn't it obvious?
[15:52] ---
    It's almost done!
[15:54] ---
    Pa!
[15:55] ---
    This is a first.
[15:56] ---
    I can't believe you
    made all this in one night.
[15:59] ---
    It's going to be even better
    by tomorrow's concert!
[16:02] ---
    Behold!
[16:06] ---
    Now I've paid you back
    for dinner! We're even!
[16:11] ---
    What are you even talking about?
[16:28] ---
    Kanon-chan...
[16:37] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[16:41] ---
    Why...
[16:46] ---
    I came.
[16:48] ---
    Something sounded off
    when we talked on the phone.
[16:53] ---
    I thought that you might
    be really anxious.
[16:57] ---
    I might be wrong, but...
[17:00] ---
    Oh, there's just one thing
    I wanted to tell you.
[17:04] ---
    I've always admired you so much, Chi-chan.
[17:08] ---
    You always work so hard,
    and even if you mess up a little,
[17:10] ---
    you never get depressed
    or let it get to you.
[17:13] ---
    So...
[17:17] ---
    I can't...
[17:20] ---
    I need to do my best on my own...
[17:22] ---
    Until I can be confident on my own,
[17:25] ---
    I wanted to do this by myself
    when you weren't around...
[17:29] ---
    Chi-chan...
[17:31] ---
    But when I saw you, I felt relieved.
[17:37] ---
    It's not your fault, Kanon-chan.
    It's my fault for being weak.
[17:42] ---
    I was trying not to rely on you.
[17:44] ---
    I was going to finally do something
    that you can't do on my own today.
[17:49] ---
    Chi-chan...
[17:51] ---
    Despite how I seem,
    I'm pretty competitive.
[17:55] ---
    Well, I always thought
    you were saving me, too.
[18:01] ---
    When I couldn't sing, when I messed up...
    It was always you who helped me out.
[18:06] ---
    But that was just because you...
[18:09] ---
    Then I guess we're in the same boat!
[18:12] ---
    We both did our best.
    We were always watching each other
[18:16] ---
    and thought the other was important.
[18:19] ---
    I was really moved back then.
    My whole body trembled.
[18:24] ---
    I'm going to do something you can't do.
[18:28] ---
    Something like your singing!
    Something I can love and obsess over!
[18:33] ---
    I'm going to do my best!
[18:38] ---
    You were just so cool.
[18:41] ---
    I told myself that I had to be like you.
[18:45] ---
    That I needed to get so good at singing
    that no one could compare.
[18:52] ---
    Thank you.
[18:53] ---
    It's because of your words
    that I can sing right now.
[19:09] ---
    --Yes!
    --Yes!
[19:10] ---
    Ye--
[19:12] ---
    Chi-chan...
[19:13] ---
    Wait for me.
[19:20] ---
    Good luck out there, Chi-chan!
[19:34] ---
    Thank you!
[19:38] ---
    And now, let's introduce our guests today!
[19:41] ---
    The idols we've got our eyes on...
[19:45] ---
    The Yuigaoka Girls' High School Idols!
[19:49] ---
    Are you okay?
[19:50] ---
    Yeah!
[19:51] ---
    I feel like I've been
    dreaming this whole time.
[19:56] ---
    I've been waiting for this day to come.
[19:59] ---
    Yeah.
[20:03] ---
    Okay, here we go.
[20:05] ---
    Right.
[21:56] ---
    Pa!
[21:57] ---
    So this is how they are as four...
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:46] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:57] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
[23:36] ---
    Next time, "Battle! The Student Council
    President Elections."

    Previously on Love Live! Superstar!!
[00:03] ---
    After receiving an
    invitation from Sunny Passion,
[00:06] ---
    we were going to perform at
    a concert with them at Kozushima.
[00:09] ---
    Meanwhile, Chisato-san was going
    to compete in her dance contest.
[00:12] ---
    Okay!
[00:13] ---
    "School Withdrawal Application"
[00:14] ---
    Withdr--
[00:15] ---
    The reason I started dancing
    is because of Kanon-chan.
[00:17] ---
    I was going to finally do something
    that you can't do on my own today.
[00:21] ---
    "Chisato Arashi wins!"
    "Course Transfer Application"
[00:21] ---
    Chisato-san won her dance contest,
    and our concert was a huge success!
[00:22] ---
    "So that I can concentrate on
    being a school idol."
[00:26] ---
    She became a school idol
    with the rest of us!
[01:18] ---
    "Student Council Inauguration"
[01:23] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:29] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:34] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[01:51] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[01:55] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[01:59] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[02:02] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[02:04] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:06] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:12] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:16] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:19] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:24] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:26] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:29] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:34] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:40] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:46] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:55] ---
    You seem tired.
[02:56] ---
    "Battle! The Student Council
    President Elections"
[02:57] ---
    Starting our new term right after getting
    back from the island is a bit harsh.
[03:01] ---
    Well, you did work super hard
    making our stage and props, too.
[03:05] ---
    Thank you.
[03:06] ---
    Kanon...
[03:08] ---
    Buck up!
[03:11] ---
    Chi-chan?
[03:12] ---
    Something feels off.
[03:15] ---
    We're going to be practicing dance
[03:17] ---
    way more hardcore than before,
[03:20] ---
    so you have no time to be tired!
[03:23] ---
    Heya!
[03:25] ---
    Well? How does my new uniform look?
[03:31] ---
    Huh?
[03:32] ---
    What?!
[03:34] ---
    I was actually thinking about withdrawing,
[03:36] ---
    then reapplying for
    the general curriculum,
[03:39] ---
    but the director allowed me
    just to transfer programs.
[03:42] ---
    But why...
[03:44] ---
    Because I wanted to head towards
    the same goal as you three now.
[03:49] ---
    So that's why...
[03:51] ---
    I'm sorry I kept it a secret.
[03:53] ---
    This is love.
[03:56] ---
    Love! This is truly love!
[03:58] ---
    I'm so moved!
[04:00] ---
    It's not really that big of a deal.
[04:03] ---
    Then we'll have to make sure
    we introduce you
[04:05] ---
    to everyone in our class
    before class starts.
[04:09] ---
    What is it?
[04:10] ---
    Oh, Kanon-chan.
[04:12] ---
    Look at this.
[04:13] ---
    "Student Council Inauguration"
[04:15] ---
    The student council?
[04:17] ---
    The student council at our
    school that had been put on hold
[04:20] ---
    is finally getting started?!
[04:22] ---
    Yeah. If there are a few people who want
    to run for student council president,
[04:26] ---
    they're going to hold an election...
[04:30] ---
    G-Good morning.
[04:33] ---
    Yeah, Chi-chan's going to be joining--
[04:35] ---
    --Kanon! The student council!
    --No way! What happened?
[04:37] ---
    R-Right.
[04:38] ---
    Chisato-chan's in the general
    curriculum now?
[04:40] ---
    Yeah! Um...
[04:41] ---
    The student council elections!
[04:43] ---
    Wait, why though?
[04:44] ---
    --The election!
    --There's so much going on right now!
[04:47] ---
    So Chisato-chan's going
    to be a school idol, too?
[04:50] ---
    Yeah, I figured I'd give it a try.
[04:53] ---
    It's finished!
[04:54] ---
    "Kanon Shibuya"
[04:59] ---
    Why did you write it in hiragana?
[05:00] ---
    When I did my research,
    apparently writing your name in hiragana
[05:03] ---
    is common knowledge in Japanese elections.
[05:06] ---
    Elections?
[05:08] ---
    Kanon, did you already forget?
    We just saw it!
[05:10] ---
    "First Gen. Student Council President"
    "Candidacy Application"
[05:11] ---
    "General Curriculum"
    "Class 1-A"
    "Kanon Shibuya"
[05:13] ---
    No, I remember that.
    But why is my name written there?
[05:18] ---
    Why, because you're
    going to run, of course!
[05:23] ---
    A--
[05:24] ---
    I've created an account for you, too,
[05:26] ---
    so now we just need to make
    a video for your candidacy.
[05:29] ---
    I--
[05:29] ---
    Now, take this sash!
[05:31] ---
    --U-e-o!
    --Kanon!
[05:32] ---
    Kanon! Kanon! Please open the door!
[05:35] ---
    No! I'm never coming out!
[05:37] ---
    Kanon-chan, let's just talk.
    I'm sure we can work all of this out.
[05:39] ---
    "Kanon Shibuya"
[05:42] ---
    You agree to this, too, Chi-chan?
[05:44] ---
    I'm not sure if I agree, but...
[05:47] ---
    This is for the sake of us school idols!
[05:49] ---
    The only other candidate
    right now is that Ren person!
[05:53] ---
    If that person becomes student council
    president, school idols will be in danger!
[05:58] ---
    And there are a lot of people
    who believe that
[06:00] ---
    the student council president should be
    from the general curriculum.
[06:03] ---
    Then one of you could run instead!
[06:07] ---
    Oh, fine. Fine!
[06:13] ---
    "Sumire Heanna"
[06:14] ---
    As someone who has lived
    in the world of show business,
[06:17] ---
    this is truly my time to shine--
[06:19] ---
    Kanon, please!
[06:20] ---
    --Kanon-chan!
    --No way!
[06:22] ---
    Galaxy!
[06:23] ---
    So that we can continue being
    school idols, I, Sumire Heanna...
[06:27] ---
    Kanon!
[06:28] ---
    Look at me!
[06:29] ---
    Who are you?
[06:30] ---
    You know who I am!
[06:32] ---
    Huh? Um, you're...
    Su... Su-something...
[06:38] ---
    Sumire! My name is Sumire!
[06:39] ---
    "Su"
[06:40] ---
    Su-mi-re!
[06:40] ---
    "Mi"
[06:41] ---
    "Re"
[06:41] ---
    "Sumire Heanna"
[06:41] ---
    How can you forget the name
    of your fellow groupmate?!
[06:44] ---
    Sorry, I'm still new.
[06:46] ---
    Well, whatever.
[06:47] ---
    Honestly, I don't really like the idea of
    this student council president election...
[06:52] ---
    Then don't worry about it. We're good.
[06:54] ---
    No one asked you.
    Know your place... and such.
[06:57] ---
    You didn't even hesitate
    to say all those mean things--
[06:59] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[07:01] ---
    Thank you so much!
    You have my utmost support!
[07:06] ---
    What?
[07:07] ---
    Don't "what" me!
[07:09] ---
    Another candidate?
[07:11] ---
    Yes, apparently one
    from the general curriculum.
[07:14] ---
    I see.
[07:15] ---
    We're going to end up having an election.
    Will everything be okay?
[07:18] ---
    There are so many more students
    in the general curriculum.
[07:20] ---
    This is out of our hands.
[07:22] ---
    And there's no guarantee that everyone
[07:24] ---
    from the general curriculum
    will root for their own.
[07:28] ---
    We'll just have to do our best.
[07:30] ---
    You're right.
[07:31] ---
    Yeah, you've got this.
[07:33] ---
    Let me know if I can help in any way.
[07:35] ---
    Thank you very much.
[07:37] ---
    See you later!
[07:44] ---
    "Candidacy Application"
    "Music Program"
    "Class 1-A" "Ren Hazuki"
[07:49] ---
    Are you sure you want to run?
[07:53] ---
    Yes.
[07:55] ---
    Student council president
    candidate Sumire Heanna!
[08:00] ---
    My motto is Yuigaoka...
[08:05] ---
    ...Galaxy!
[08:07] ---
    Hey, wait!
[08:09] ---
    And we're good.
[08:11] ---
    There's no way that was good!
[08:12] ---
    Why are you so unenthusiastic?!
    You need to take this more seriously!
[08:17] ---
    --With my powers as someone who lived
    in the world of show business,
[08:19] ---
    --Yeah, I'd prefer Kanon...
    --With my powers as someone who lived
    in the world of show business,
[08:21] ---
    --Yeah, I'd prefer Kanon...
    --becoming the student council
    president will easy peasy!
[08:22] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[08:24] ---
    Hey, how'd it go?
[08:25] ---
    The deadline for
    candidate applications passed,
[08:27] ---
    so now it's officially going to be
    between Hazuki-san and Sumire-chan.
[08:32] ---
    So if I defeat Ren Hazuki, I'll be able
    to stand at the top of this school.
[08:38] ---
    Yeah, but apparently Hazuki-san
[08:39] ---
    is the daughter of the person
    who established this school...
[08:42] ---
    You don't stand a chance!
[08:44] ---
    Wait, why are you giving up?!
[08:46] ---
    Oh, but apparently,
    Hazuki-san isn't a shoe-in.
[08:50] ---
    She is a natural leader as
    the class rep in the music program
[08:54] ---
    and is pretty popular,
    but there are rumors that
[08:57] ---
    she looks down on
    the general curriculum students.
[09:00] ---
    I see...
[09:01] ---
    That's it!
[09:02] ---
    Our program has three times
    more students than the music program!
[09:05] ---
    We just need to secure those votes!
[09:09] ---
    "Never forget where you came from"
    "Ren Hazuki"
[09:10] ---
    "I, Ren Hazuki, would like to see
    a school where the general curriculum
[09:15] ---
    and the music program
    can work together and I promise
[09:18] ---
    to make the school festival
    in the fall a success."
[09:21] ---
    There are rumors that Hazuki-san
    only cares about the music program...
[09:25] ---
    She does actually
    think a lot about us, too.
[09:28] ---
    Yeah, totally.
[09:29] ---
    Looks like she made the first move.
[09:31] ---
    And it's all over.
    There's no way you can win.
[09:34] ---
    Which means the school idols...
[09:42] ---
    Kuu...
[09:43] ---
    ...kaa.
[09:46] ---
    It's okay. No one followed me.
[09:49] ---
    Okay, then we'll be doing
    a singing lesson today.
[09:53] ---
    I've finally found you, school idols.
[09:58] ---
    According to school regulations
    article 10, paragraph 325,
[10:01] ---
    school idol activities at Yuigaoka
    are absolutely prohibited!
[10:04] ---
    Capture them!
[10:06] ---
    Oh, no!
[10:07] ---
    "Sumire Heanna" "Certain Victory"
[10:09] ---
    I don't think it's going to go that far.
[10:11] ---
    No, I bet she would do it.
[10:13] ---
    You can see her hate
    for school idols in her eyes.
[10:17] ---
    But I wonder why she dislikes
    school idols so much.
[10:21] ---
    You don't know either, Chi-chan?
[10:23] ---
    Nope. No one in the music program's
    really talked about that before.
[10:30] ---
    "Certain Victory"
[10:30] ---
    I'm just going to
    have to win the election!
[10:33] ---
    But how?
[10:34] ---
    Have no fear!
[10:38] ---
    H-Here you go!
[10:40] ---
    We're giving away some free takoyaki
    along with our greeting today.
[10:45] ---
    "If I say I'm going to do it,
    I'm going to do it!"
[10:46] ---
    Wow!
[10:47] ---
    Thanks!
[10:48] ---
    "Sumire Heanna"
[10:49] ---
    See? I told you it'd work.
[10:52] ---
    I'm Sumire Heanna!
[10:54] ---
    Vote for Galaxy!
[10:56] ---
    Is this even okay?
[10:59] ---
    I'm not sure... maybe, just barely?
[11:02] ---
    It is not.
[11:04] ---
    "Voting Results"
    "101 votes"
[11:05] ---
    "-20 votes"
[11:07] ---
    "-20 votes"
    "Ren Hazuki" "Sumire Heanna"
[11:08] ---
    I-I...
[11:10] ---
    I've been crushed! Why, though?! Why?!
[11:14] ---
    It's obvious.
[11:15] ---
    Shut your mouth!
[11:17] ---
    Or wait, how do you have negative votes?
[11:19] ---
    Well, that includes the punishment
    for using takoyaki, so...
[11:22] ---
    Well, the results wouldn't have been
    any different even without that.
[11:26] ---
    This is why I said it should've
    been Kanon to begin with.
[11:30] ---
    Actually, I think it's for the best
[11:31] ---
    that Hazuki-san became
    the student council president.
[11:34] ---
    --Me, too...
    --You traitors.
[11:37] ---
    Well, it's not that you did
    anything wrong, Sumire-chan.
[11:40] ---
    It's just, when you think
    about how this person has to
[11:43] ---
    think about the whole school
    and make a bunch of decisions...
[11:47] ---
    But school idols...
[11:50] ---
    Yeah...
[11:52] ---
    I'll talk to her.
[11:54] ---
    Do you think she'd listen?
[11:56] ---
    I don't know, but I'm sure
    she has her reasons.
[12:03] ---
    What do you plan on doing?
[12:05] ---
    Before that, please tell me how many
    applicants we have for next year.
[12:10] ---
    As the student council president-- No...
[12:14] ---
    As the daughter of
    the founder of this school,
[12:16] ---
    I have a right to know.
[12:23] ---
    Thank you for your time.
[12:31] ---
    You're...
[12:33] ---
    Do you have a minute?
[12:34] ---
    "Apple Tea" "Strawberry Milk"
[12:38] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[12:45] ---
    You told us before that you'd support us
    if we weren't school idols, right?
[12:52] ---
    It's not like you don't like us
    or you were trying to be mean, right?
[12:57] ---
    We want to know why.
    If you could tell us that,
[13:00] ---
    I'm sure we can all help you
    figure something out.
[13:05] ---
    I don't know if you'd
    ever be able to accept us,
[13:08] ---
    but we really don't think
    school idols are bad.
[13:12] ---
    There really isn't a reason.
[13:18] ---
    It's just this school is better off
    without school idols.
[13:23] ---
    That is how I feel.
[13:30] ---
    What do you mean it'd be better off?
[13:36] ---
    And now, our first student
    council president,
[13:39] ---
    Ren Hazuki-san, will say a few words.
[13:43] ---
    Hello, I am Ren Hazuki,
[13:45] ---
    and I have been chosen to be this school's
    first student council president.
[13:49] ---
    I am truly honored to be chosen
    for such a prestigious position
[13:53] ---
    and very humbled.
[13:58] ---
    I will do everything in my power
    so that Yuigaoka Girls' High
[14:03] ---
    can become an established school
    in this area for a very long time.
[14:09] ---
    To make that happen...
[14:15] ---
    I wonder what's wrong.
[14:20] ---
    To make that happen,
    our first school festival
[14:25] ---
    will have the music program
    as the main act.
[14:34] ---
    Hazuki-san...
[14:38] ---
    She totally broke her campaign promise.
[14:40] ---
    Yeah. All of us have been
    looking forward to the school festival
[14:43] ---
    and have been planning
    what to do with our classes.
[14:46] ---
    Apparently, the class next door
    is collecting signatures to fight this.
[14:48] ---
    Oh, I'm definitely going
    to help out with that.
[14:53] ---
    There's a quicker solution than that.
[14:57] ---
    A recall!
[14:58] ---
    Recall?
[14:59] ---
    Yes. If that goes through,
[15:01] ---
    the current president
    will have to step down for lying.
[15:04] ---
    And then, after another election, I'll--
[15:08] ---
    "Kanon Shibuya"
[15:08] ---
    Kanon should be
    the student council president!
[15:10] ---
    --Gala?
    --What?
    --Me?
[15:11] ---
    Kanon-chan's going to run?
[15:12] ---
    --What?!
    --You have my support!
[15:14] ---
    We were actually talking about
    how you'd be a great candidate!
[15:17] ---
    --Yeah!
    --Nope. No way.
[15:19] ---
    That's not happening.
    I mean, I don't stand out at all.
[15:24] ---
    You're just asking to be hated on.
[15:26] ---
    Huh? No, no, no. That's not what I meant!
[15:32] ---
    But you might just have to do that.
[15:35] ---
    Yes. She's already broken her promise,
[15:38] ---
    so if we leave her alone, she's definitely
    going to prohibit school idols.
[15:42] ---
    Hm... I guess I could see that.
[15:46] ---
    But there has to be some kind of a reason.
[15:50] ---
    But she wouldn't
    tell you yesterday, right?
[15:54] ---
    Well...
[15:56] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' Private High School"
[16:01] ---
    Now we're tailing her?
[16:02] ---
    What else can we do? Apparently,
    most of the kids in the music program
[16:06] ---
    don't know much about Hazuki-san either.
[16:08] ---
    If we're doing this, we're going all in.
[16:21] ---
    That was close!
[16:22] ---
    That's Hazuki-san for you.
[16:24] ---
    She's always so proper
    even out of the music program
[16:26] ---
    and is always paying attention
    to those around her.
[16:29] ---
    So she has the ability
    to sense someone's presence.
[16:32] ---
    In that case, Sumire-chan.
[16:37] ---
    Gala?
[16:39] ---
    I definitely don't like this...
[16:41] ---
    It's poop!
[16:42] ---
    --Poop!
    --Shut up!
[17:00] ---
    Way to go, Sumire-chan!
[17:01] ---
    You didn't get noticed at all!
[17:03] ---
    Please spare the compliments. They hurt.
[17:05] ---
    Kanon!
[17:08] ---
    Let's go!
[17:21] ---
    She went in here.
[17:25] ---
    So this is...
[17:26] ---
    Hazuki-san's house.
[17:28] ---
    I figured she was rich,
    but this is out of this universe.
[17:33] ---
    Well, let's call her out here.
[17:35] ---
    Wait!
[17:36] ---
    We should investigate
    a little more first...
[17:38] ---
    Didn't we follow her
    all the way here because
[17:41] ---
    we wanted to find out more about her?
[17:45] ---
    Who is it?
[17:47] ---
    Oh, um, I--
[17:50] ---
    We're students from Yuigaoka Girls' High.
[17:53] ---
    We wanted to talk to Ren-san.
[18:00] ---
    Here you are.
[18:03] ---
    Thank you very much.
[18:04] ---
    I will go fetch Miss Ren.
    Please make yourselves at home.
[18:09] ---
    Okay.
[18:12] ---
    What are we going to do?
    We just showed up unannounced.
[18:15] ---
    Well, we did follow her...
[18:18] ---
    I wonder what we could
    even say to Hazuki-san!
[18:21] ---
    --This is good.
    --She's probably just going to get mad.
[18:24] ---
    Like, "I have nothing to say to you.
    Go home. Begone."
[18:29] ---
    Yeah...
[18:33] ---
    This really is a lovely house, though.
[18:37] ---
    Look, there's a giant plushie.
[18:40] ---
    Plushie? It's not taxidermied?
[18:42] ---
    A dog this big could never
    exist in real life.
[18:46] ---
    Oh, it's so warm...
[18:47] ---
    It's warm?
[18:50] ---
    You're right. And you can hear
    something thumping...
[18:54] ---
    What are you talking about?
    There you go, making stuff up again.
[19:02] ---
    It's...
[19:03] ---
    It's...
[19:04] ---
    It's real!
[19:07] ---
    What the heck is that ridiculous dog?!
[19:09] ---
    I don't know!
[19:11] ---
    Has it been genetically modified?!
    Maybe it's been modified to be a giant!
[19:14] ---
    Found it!
[19:16] ---
    It really is an actual dog.
[19:17] ---
    It's supposed to be that big?
[19:19] ---
    Anyway, we just need to ask for help!
[19:22] ---
    Someone!
[19:23] ---
    Someone!
[19:24] ---
    Someone!
[19:26] ---
    Someone!
[19:28] ---
    There's no one here!
[19:29] ---
    What's going on?
[19:31] ---
    I can't!
[19:33] ---
    Keke-chan!
[19:36] ---
    Kanon-chan?!
[19:37] ---
    Hiyah!
[19:40] ---
    --Hurry, get inside!
    --Thanks!
[19:41] ---
    Yes!
[19:44] ---
    What's with this place?
[19:46] ---
    I can't believe there's, like,
    no one inside this giant house.
[19:49] ---
    It is strange.
[20:15] ---
    This is...
[20:17] ---
    Kanon-chan.
[20:18] ---
    Is it a graduation photo?
[20:20] ---
    It looks like Yuigaoka.
[20:22] ---
    But this photo's pretty old.
[20:26] ---
    No!
[20:29] ---
    Thank you for everything you've done.
    I'll never forget you.
[20:34] ---
    No, I cannot accept this.
[20:36] ---
    Please. We really don't have the money
    to keep you working here next month.
[20:41] ---
    This is not necessary.
    I just want to serve the Hazuki Family...
[20:46] ---
    But that's not right. If I were
    to have someone like you work for free,
[20:51] ---
    then my late mother
    would never forgive me.
[20:54] ---
    But... Then you truly
    will be all alone, Miss Ren.
[20:59] ---
    I'll be all right.
    I have Chibi, after all.
[21:02] ---
    Chibi? Really?
[21:04] ---
    Shh!
[21:05] ---
    I believe you first came here
    around the time Chibi was just born.
[21:10] ---
    Back then, Father was still around
    and my mother was healthy.
[21:14] ---
    We all got along and it was so lively...
[21:18] ---
    Miss Ren...
[21:20] ---
    It's not that I'm losing hope.
[21:23] ---
    I still have Yuigaoka
    that Mother left me, after all.
[21:28] ---
    Chibi?
[21:31] ---
    Who-- Huh?
[21:33] ---
    --Ow...
    --Hey, don't lick me there!
[21:36] ---
    You...
[21:38] ---
    Hey! That tickles!
[21:41] ---
    Chibi, come.
[21:44] ---
    Sit. Stay.
[21:47] ---
    Did you hear everything?
[21:48] ---
    What do you mean you're by yourself?
    That you don't have any money...
[21:52] ---
    It's exactly how it sounds. I am the
    only one left here, and I have no money.
[21:59] ---
    At this rate, the school can't keep going.
[22:02] ---
    I have to do whatever I can in order to
    keep the school my mother left me going.
[22:09] ---
    Hazuki-san...
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
[23:36] ---
    Next time, "Connecting Feelings."

[00:02] ---
    My mother went to Jingu Music School
[00:05] ---
    and her lifelong dream was to create
    another school in that same location.
[00:09] ---
    So that's why she established Yuigaoka...
[00:11] ---
    But my father was assigned to work
    overseas and was against this idea
[00:15] ---
    and left us.
[00:18] ---
    Even then, my mother worked hard
    until the school was finished...
[00:22] ---
    Part of the reason was overwork,
    but she passed away two years ago.
[00:26] ---
    So when you said you're alone...
[00:29] ---
    Yes.
[00:30] ---
    And that you didn't have any money?
[00:32] ---
    It's embarrassing to admit, but yes.
[00:34] ---
    My father offered to let me live with him
    overseas, but I turned him down.
[00:39] ---
    I want to make the school that my mother
    left me the best in this whole city.
[00:43] ---
    If I don't gather even more students,
    I cannot accomplish this goal.
[00:52] ---
    Sorry for barging in on you.
[00:54] ---
    It's all right.
[00:55] ---
    Looking back at how I'd
    been acting... I can't blame you.
[01:00] ---
    Hazuki-san...
[01:01] ---
    Um...
[01:03] ---
    Regarding everything
    I've told you today...
[01:05] ---
    Could you please keep it between us?
[01:07] ---
    But...
[01:09] ---
    I don't want to make the students anxious
[01:11] ---
    or feel like they regret
    coming to Yuigaoka.
[01:15] ---
    Please.
[01:20] ---
    Mother.
[01:23] ---
    What were you trying to tell me back then?
[01:28] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:34] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:39] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[01:56] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[02:01] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[02:04] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[02:07] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[02:09] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:11] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:17] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:21] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:24] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:29] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:31] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:34] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:39] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:45] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:51] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:58] ---
    So the reason she wanted to
    conduct the school festival
[03:01] ---
    with just the music program...
[03:02] ---
    Is probably because there weren't
    that many new applicants for the school.
[03:06] ---
    And the efficient music program
    would be able to attract people.
[03:10] ---
    So it's her last resort.
[03:11] ---
    Ow!
[03:12] ---
    This is why people care less
    about the general curriculum!
[03:14] ---
    --Shut up!
    --I can understand where
    she's coming from,
[03:17] ---
    but no one else knows her situation.
[03:20] ---
    Yeah.
[03:21] ---
    But... At this rate, Hazuki-san...
[03:25] ---
    Everyone will continue to have
    the wrong idea about her.
[03:29] ---
    Hazuki-san.
[03:31] ---
    "Signatures opposing the school festival"
[03:32] ---
    Here are signatures we collected
    protesting the school festival.
[03:36] ---
    Just because you're the founder's daughter
[03:37] ---
    doesn't mean the school belongs to you.
[03:39] ---
    Please think about this!
[03:42] ---
    Please take this up with
    the student council.
[03:45] ---
    Now, if you'll excuse me.
[03:46] ---
    What's with that attitude?
[03:48] ---
    She's unbelievable!
[03:52] ---
    I'll try to go talk things out.
[03:56] ---
    This is the only time it'll
    concentrate on the music program!
[03:59] ---
    It's not like we're saying
    that you can't be involved at all!
[04:02] ---
    They're more confrontational
    than I thought they'd be.
[04:04] ---
    Clearly, it's the general curriculum kids
    who are being selfish here!
[04:07] ---
    Don't let them overwhelm you like that!
[04:09] ---
    Well...
[04:11] ---
    We don't want to participate.
[04:14] ---
    Participating is like the music program
    saying, "Oh, we'll let you help out."
[04:19] ---
    I wouldn't go that far...
[04:21] ---
    I think it's a good idea
    to have the festival
[04:24] ---
    showcase music since
    it represents our school...
[04:28] ---
    Then why didn't they ask us
    to participate to begin with?
[04:31] ---
    Like she said in her campaign promise!
[04:33] ---
    Why are you taking the student council
    president's side anyway?
[04:36] ---
    Yeah! She's going to say no if you say
    you want to perform at the festival!
[04:41] ---
    You dummy. Quit repeating the same things.
[04:44] ---
    Okay, then you say something, Sumire-chan!
[04:47] ---
    Don't you want to continue being
    a school idol, Shibuya-san?
[04:50] ---
    We've been rooting for you!
[04:53] ---
    Actually, they're right.
[04:55] ---
    Hazuki-san is against school idols.
[05:00] ---
    I'm going to take the side
    of the general curriculum!
[05:03] ---
    Let us fight together!
[05:05] ---
    Yeah!
[05:06] ---
    Stop making things more complicated!
[05:08] ---
    Someday, I can fly
[05:12] ---
    Someday, I can...
[05:16] ---
    They just keep going.
[05:18] ---
    Looks like they don't care
    about the rest of us.
[05:21] ---
    At this rate, Hazuki-san will be...
[05:24] ---
    I hate her.
[05:25] ---
    We go to Yuigaoka, too!
[05:31] ---
    What should we do?
[05:32] ---
    Things are getting even more complicated.
[05:34] ---
    Well, yeah. Everyone's always felt
    this divide between the two programs.
[05:40] ---
    Yes, and it doesn't look like
    either side will back down.
[05:44] ---
    Yeah...
[05:46] ---
    This is all my fault.
[05:48] ---
    Hazuki-san!
[05:49] ---
    One of the music program students told me
    that you went to talk to them.
[05:54] ---
    Yeah. We thought we might be able to help.
[06:00] ---
    Don't worry! We haven't mentioned
    anything about your private life.
[06:04] ---
    I'm truly sorry. My words
    have now troubled everyone.
[06:09] ---
    You mean you regret what you said?
[06:13] ---
    Yes. The director summoned me
    to her office earlier.
[06:17] ---
    You need to clear things up
    tomorrow at the assembly.
[06:21] ---
    If you fail to come to a solution,
[06:22] ---
    this year's school festival
    will be canceled.
[06:26] ---
    But...
[06:27] ---
    The director went to school
    with my mother,
[06:30] ---
    but she seems rather conflicted about me.
[06:33] ---
    We still have some time!
[06:35] ---
    Let's just talk with both programs
    and do something together!
[06:41] ---
    There's something else on your mind?
[06:43] ---
    Yeah. I think we can make this work
    if you talk to everyone at the assembly.
[06:48] ---
    Of course, I would love to do that.
[06:50] ---
    It's just, school idols are...
[06:55] ---
    Just anything other than
    school idols, please!
[07:00] ---
    I'd rather you didn't do
    idol activities at this school.
[07:06] ---
    Will you tell us why?
[07:09] ---
    This school once had students
    who performed as idols
[07:13] ---
    to save it from closing.
[07:17] ---
    One of them was my mother.
[07:20] ---
    So that's why this room had
    the school idol club plate on the door.
[07:24] ---
    This is long before they were
    officially referred to as "school idols."
[07:28] ---
    Their performances
    became rather popular
[07:30] ---
    and they gathered a lot of attention.
[07:32] ---
    But they weren't able to reach their goal
    and the school closed.
[07:36] ---
    That's why I thought
    I would become a school idol
[07:40] ---
    at this school that my mother founded.
[07:44] ---
    I thought I would get attention for
    the school just like my mother did.
[07:48] ---
    But you were so against us doing it!
[07:51] ---
    But...
[07:53] ---
    Then let's do this together!
[07:54] ---
    If we all work together, we--
[07:57] ---
    There's just nothing left!
[08:00] ---
    No matter how hard I looked...
[08:03] ---
    ...I couldn't find any record
    of her school idol activities.
[08:08] ---
    Even though there were records
    of every other school activity...
[08:12] ---
    There is no record of her ever doing
    idol activities at the school.
[08:17] ---
    And that made me wonder...
    Did my mother regret being an idol?
[08:23] ---
    Did she feel like she couldn't
    save the school as a school idol?
[08:27] ---
    But...
[08:29] ---
    But that's not set in stone!
[08:31] ---
    Then why does nothing exist?
[08:33] ---
    She didn't leave a single photo of
    these supposed precious memories.
[08:37] ---
    How is that possible?!
[08:41] ---
    What do you think?
[08:42] ---
    I can understand how she feels,
[08:45] ---
    but I think it's going too far
    to prohibit school idols!
[08:50] ---
    I mean, in the end,
    this doesn't concern us.
[08:55] ---
    What about you, Kanon-chan?
[08:58] ---
    I really can't imagine her mother
    regretting her school idol activities.
[09:03] ---
    I saw a picture of Hazuki-san's mom
    smiling at their house
[09:07] ---
    and it was dazzling.
[09:10] ---
    I want to find out for sure.
[09:15] ---
    Records from the Jingu Music School?
[09:18] ---
    Yes. I'd like to see anything
    you might have on file.
[09:21] ---
    Please.
[09:23] ---
    The school assembly will be starting soon.
[09:26] ---
    I promise we'll return them by then.
[09:30] ---
    Make sure you don't make a mess.
[09:32] ---
    This isn't it.
[09:33] ---
    This isn't either.
[09:35] ---
    There are records of
    all the other club activities
[09:37] ---
    except for any school idol activities.
[09:40] ---
    There's nothing over here, either.
[09:41] ---
    I've looked through everything many times.
[09:44] ---
    Hazuki-san.
[09:45] ---
    That's the only thing missing.
[09:47] ---
    I can only imagine that
    she willingly got rid of them.
[09:49] ---
    She never said anything?
[09:52] ---
    No... She may have mentioned
    something when I was little...
[09:57] ---
    Though she would always say,
[09:59] ---
    "I hope our feelings connect
    in the same place."
[10:04] ---
    The same place?
[10:05] ---
    That's why she made
    the school here, right?
[10:11] ---
    The school assembly is
    about to start. I must go.
[10:14] ---
    What are you going to do?
[10:16] ---
    I'll probably have to
    talk to everyone honestly
[10:19] ---
    about the current state of this school.
[10:21] ---
    Though I'm uncertain
    how that will turn out.
[10:25] ---
    Feelings connecting in the same place...
[10:30] ---
    Wait!
[10:31] ---
    Hazuki-san. You gave us the key
    to this room, right?
[10:36] ---
    Oh. The director said
    she couldn't find them,
[10:39] ---
    so when I looked around my house,
    I found them in my desk...
[10:43] ---
    Shibuya-san! No running in the hallway!
[10:46] ---
    "School Idol Club"
[10:47] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[10:50] ---
    What did we see when
    we first came to this room?
[10:52] ---
    I can't really remember.
[10:53] ---
    It's in here?
[10:55] ---
    I'm not sure. But I think
    we'll find something!
[11:00] ---
    I didn't see anything over here.
[11:02] ---
    It's just storage.
[11:04] ---
    Something... There has to
    be something here!
[11:14] ---
    Wait... I think this is it!
[11:19] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[11:22] ---
    We will now begin our school assembly.
[11:26] ---
    First, the student council
    president would like to
[11:29] ---
    say a few words regarding
    the school festival.
[11:35] ---
    I am the student council
    president, Ren Hazuki.
[11:37] ---
    Before I speak about the school festival,
[11:39] ---
    please allow me to apologize to you
    for my remarks the other day
[11:42] ---
    and the confusion they have caused.
[11:46] ---
    I'm truly sorry.
[11:48] ---
    I'm sure that many of you
    felt unpleasant or angry.
[11:52] ---
    It's just that I want people on the
    outside to see how wonderful this sch--
[11:56] ---
    What's going to happen
    to the general curriculum?
[11:58] ---
    Are we going to be able to
    participate in the school festival?
[12:01] ---
    Um...
[12:02] ---
    We want to sing even if
    we're not in the music program!
[12:04] ---
    Do we even get that chance?!
[12:06] ---
    Just having us as helpers
    to the music program is cruel!
[12:09] ---
    Please take back what you said!
[12:11] ---
    Are you going to prohibit
    school idol activities, too?
[12:14] ---
    They've done more for
    this school than anyone else!
[12:19] ---
    That's the only thing I...
[12:20] ---
    Wait!
[12:27] ---
    Kanon-chan?
[12:30] ---
    Hazuki-san, there's something
    I'd like to say.
[12:34] ---
    Shibuya-san.
[12:36] ---
    Very well.
[12:38] ---
    Please go up to the stage.
[12:45] ---
    They're all looking at me...
[12:52] ---
    "Jingu Music School"
    "Idol Club Diary"
[12:55] ---
    What is that?
[12:57] ---
    We found this notebook
    in the school idol club room.
[13:03] ---
    This is something the students from
[13:05] ---
    the Jingu Music School wrote
    before this school was created.
[13:09] ---
    These students tried to gather
    students to do idol activities
[13:13] ---
    when they learned that
    the school was going to close.
[13:18] ---
    This is what was written inside.
[13:22] ---
    "We continued being idols at our school,
    but we're still going to lose our school."
[13:28] ---
    "We couldn't stop
    our school from closing."
[13:36] ---
    "But we don't regret anything we've done."
[13:40] ---
    "Jingu Music School"
    "Idol Club Diary"
[13:42] ---
    "The Jingu Music School
    Idol Club Begins!!"
[13:45] ---
    "Because we came together as a school."
[13:48] ---
    "Through our activities, through music,
[13:52] ---
    we all connected!"
[13:55] ---
    "We were able to make
    the best school ever!"
[14:00] ---
    Mother...
[14:02] ---
    "We all worked together,
    dreamed the same dream,
[14:05] ---
    and went through all kinds
    of emotions together."
[14:07] ---
    "This time we spent together
    was like a miracle."
[14:11] ---
    "And that's why I promised everyone..."
[14:15] ---
    "That I would create a school that has
    'connect' in the name here once again."
[14:20] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School"
[14:21] ---
    "I'm going to create a school
    that connect everyone
[14:23] ---
    through music here once again."
[14:26] ---
    "That is my dream.
    My dream I will see come true."
[14:33] ---
    Your mother created this school and wanted
    to connect everyone through music.
[14:39] ---
    This school is to make
    that dream come true.
[14:43] ---
    A school where the students of
    both programs can be connected.
[14:51] ---
    Being a school idol was
    your mother's best memories.
[14:58] ---
    Her best... memories...
[15:02] ---
    Ren, being a school idol...
[15:10] ---
    ...were my best memories.
[15:19] ---
    This was tucked away with the notebook.
[15:23] ---
    Mother...
[15:27] ---
    Mother...
[15:32] ---
    Mother!
[15:38] ---
    Upsy daisy.
[15:40] ---
    Here you go. All that's left
    of your mother's activities.
[15:44] ---
    You knew, didn't you?
    That my mother was a school idol.
[15:50] ---
    Well, yes. Though I was
    on the supporting side.
[15:54] ---
    Why didn't you tell me?
[15:56] ---
    Don't be too harsh with me, will ya?
    She asked me not to say anything.
[16:00] ---
    She wanted you to make your own decisions
    and for me to watch over you.
[16:04] ---
    Honestly, talk about a pain.
[16:07] ---
    By the way...
[16:08] ---
    Why are you speaking differently?
[16:09] ---
    Hey, this is how I usually am.
[16:12] ---
    Well, you understand now,
    so get a move on!
[16:14] ---
    Get ready for the school festival!
[16:15] ---
    Yes, ma'am! Please excuse us.
[16:21] ---
    I'm sorry.
[16:23] ---
    We're rather behind on the school festival
    preparations because of me.
[16:28] ---
    Come with me.
[16:30] ---
    Wow...
[16:31] ---
    A little more to the right.
[16:32] ---
    Like this?
[16:33] ---
    Yeah!
[16:34] ---
    Where's the stepladder?
[16:36] ---
    --Got it! Here you go!
    --This is the school idols'...?
[16:39] ---
    Yup. The stage we're all creating for
    our performance for the school festival.
[16:44] ---
    All...
[16:45] ---
    Say, Hazuki-san.
[16:58] ---
    Hazuki-san... No, Ren-chan.
[17:02] ---
    Won't you be a school idol with us?
[17:08] ---
    I have no right to do that
    after all the grief I caused you...
[17:14] ---
    I want to sing with you
    as a school idol, Ren-chan.
[17:18] ---
    For the sake of this school... No.
[17:21] ---
    For the sake of all of the feelings
    created in this place.
[17:37] ---
    Don't worry! You can do it!
[17:39] ---
    Be more honest with yourself.
[17:41] ---
    We're always fine, fine!
[18:15] ---
    Okay! Let's all get ready
    for the school festival!
[18:20] ---
    Yeah!
[18:22] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School 1st
    School Festival!"
[18:22] ---
    Our first ever school festival
    is next Sunday!
[18:25] ---
    We'll be selling some rainbow takoyaki!
[18:28] ---
    We hope you'll come support us!
[18:30] ---
    Huh. I guess they're doing
    a school festival.
[18:33] ---
    Looks like it.
[18:34] ---
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[18:38] ---
    One, two, three...
[18:40] ---
    Amazing, Ren Ren!
[18:42] ---
    Your figure skater skills are paying off!
    You're nothing like that giant isopod.
[18:47] ---
    I keep telling you
    to stop calling me that!
[18:49] ---
    I'm happy.
[18:51] ---
    You just joined but you're
    basically fit to lead us.
[18:54] ---
    You're far too kind.
[18:56] ---
    Ren-chan, want to try being the center?
[19:00] ---
    It's going to be this school's
    first school festival.
[19:03] ---
    Yes, but...
[19:05] ---
    And I want you to sing, Ren-chan.
[19:08] ---
    Me, too.
[19:10] ---
    Me, three.
[19:12] ---
    Well, I'm only going to be the center
    on a much bigger stage.
[19:17] ---
    Guess it's settled.
[19:19] ---
    Coming through!
[19:20] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School 1st
    School Festival!"
[19:21] ---
    Looking good!
[19:22] ---
    Okay, over here next!
[19:25] ---
    Everyone's staying this late?
[19:27] ---
    We all want everyone to notice our school.
[19:29] ---
    Everyone said we're
    going to help create it together.
[19:34] ---
    Do you think we'll get more applicants?
[19:38] ---
    To be honest, I have no idea.
[19:40] ---
    But we just have to do this.
    We just have to believe.
[19:43] ---
    You're quite strong,
    aren't you, Kanon-san?
[19:46] ---
    I wouldn't say that. It's just...
    I love the moment something begins.
[19:52] ---
    Oh, I know!
[19:56] ---
    What is this?
[19:57] ---
    Since we're all here,
    I figured we could try it.
[20:01] ---
    Could it be? I'll do it!
    I've always dreamed of this!
[20:05] ---
    Can't we just do the usual "hey" thing?
[20:07] ---
    Well, we're school idols.
[20:11] ---
    Let's connect this school through music!
[20:17] ---
    One!
[20:18] ---
    Two!
[20:19] ---
    Three!
[20:20] ---
    Four!
[20:21] ---
    Five!
[20:22] ---
    Yuigaoka Girls' High School Idol Club!
[20:26] ---
    Song for me! Song for you!
[20:27] ---
    (Sing along with me ha-a)
[20:28] ---
    Song for all!
[20:31] ---
    I felt this on the day that we met
[20:37] ---
    My desire to make this come true
    just keeps growing (Starting day a-)
[20:41] ---
    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School 1st School Festival!"
[20:45] ---
    I'll help you protect the thing
    you held onto so tightly
[20:51] ---
    That you were shaking because
    you didn't want it to disappear
[20:59] ---
    Even the morning sun's bright rays
    or sudden showers
[21:06] ---
    Become irreplaceable moments when
    I'm able to smile together with you
[21:16] ---
    Those passionate feelings
    within your chest
[21:23] ---
    On this staff notation
[21:25] ---
    Let's weave them together and
    make them resonate through the blue sky
[21:30] ---
    Tears just don't suit you anymore
[21:36] ---
    Let's all go together
    and keep on believing
[21:43] ---
    This Wish-Song always gives us courage
[21:59] ---
    The melody of hope
    that we heard back then
[22:06] ---
    Created this wonderful present
[22:11] ---
    Let's hold it tight
    and take it with us
[22:19] ---
    On this staff notation
[22:22] ---
    The future we wove together
    is overflowing with light
[22:29] ---
    A smile always looks the best on you
[22:36] ---
    Let's all go together
    and keep on believing
[22:43] ---
    This Wish-Song always gives us courage
[23:18] ---

[00:01] ---
    Previously on Love Live! Superstar!!
[00:03] ---
    I thought that my mother had regretted
[00:05] ---
    her school idol activities after being
    unable to stop her school from closing.
[00:10] ---
    There's just nothing left!
[00:11] ---
    She didn't leave a single photo of
    these supposed precious memories.
[00:15] ---
    How is that possible?!
[00:16] ---
    Shibuya-san and the others
[00:17] ---
    did everything they could to find
    anything they could about this.
[00:18] ---
    "The Jingu Music School
    Idol Club Begins!!"
[00:19] ---
    And then...
[00:20] ---
    Being a school idol was
    your mother's best memories.
[00:24] ---
    After finding out
    what my mother truly felt,
[00:26] ---
    I decided to follow my dreams
    along with Shibuya-san and the others.
[00:37] ---
    What's wrong?
[00:38] ---
    It's here... finally.
[00:41] ---
    I'm sure it's something about
    how some school idol is ama-- Gala?!
[00:45] ---
    What, seriously, what is your problem?!
[00:48] ---
    It's here!
[00:50] ---
    It's finally, finally here!
    This moment has arrived!
[00:54] ---
    The moment to risk our lives on!
[01:04] ---
    What in the world is this?
[01:06] ---
    It's finally going to start.
[01:08] ---
    The competition to decide who will be
    the pinnacle of the school idol world!
[01:12] ---
    The Love Live.
[01:14] ---
    The Love Live!
[01:17] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:23] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:28] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[01:45] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[01:49] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[01:53] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[01:56] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[01:58] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:00] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:06] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:10] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:13] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:18] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:20] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:23] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:28] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[02:34] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[02:40] ---
    As fast as they can run
[02:47] ---
    Lo...ve... Li...ve...
[02:51] ---
    We can finally enter!
[02:54] ---
    The Love Live, huh?
[02:55] ---
    So it's like what other clubs would
    consider a national tournament.
[02:58] ---
    Oh, it's not that simple at all.
[03:02] ---
    The Love Live has been where countless
    moving moments and miracles were created.
[03:06] ---
    For school idols,
    it is the dream! The soul!
[03:10] ---
    It is what gives us life!
[03:12] ---
    I've heard that applicants
    to some schools with school idols
[03:15] ---
    who have won the tournament have gone up.
[03:18] ---
    Yes! There are a number of schools
[03:20] ---
    that instantly became famous
    after they were in danger of closing.
[03:23] ---
    Because of some amateur competition?
[03:27] ---
    I knew you would say something like that.
[03:30] ---
    Behold!
[03:32] ---
    This is where this year's...
[03:34] ---
    ...finals will take place!
[03:37] ---
    Wow...
[03:38] ---
    It's that big?
[03:40] ---
    Yes. Finally... Finally, it's going to
    take place at Jingu Stadium.
[03:46] ---
    Here?
[03:51] ---
    This is where I'll have the attention of
    tens of thousands of people upon me?
[03:55] ---
    Arena!
[03:57] ---
    Galaxy!
[04:02] ---
    The moment I'll finally have
    the spotlight on me...
[04:04] ---
    The moment I dreamed of
    ever since I was a child...
[04:08] ---
    Hey!
[04:09] ---
    It's not going to be
    that easy, you doofus.
[04:13] ---
    Doof?!
[04:14] ---
    What do you mean?
[04:17] ---
    Huh? Ren-chan?
[04:19] ---
    Hm... Hm?!
[04:23] ---
    What is it?
[04:24] ---
    Ren-chan, something seems off...
[04:29] ---
    Hey! She's wearing
    the general curriculum uniform!
[04:31] ---
    That's it!
[04:32] ---
    Even you switched over
    to the general curriculum?
[04:35] ---
    No. It's just that the director
    proposed to allow the students
[04:38] ---
    to wear which ever uniform they'd like,
[04:41] ---
    rather than dividing them
    through programs.
[04:43] ---
    I see! Maybe I'll have
    a music program uniform made.
[04:47] ---
    Why don't we all try it on together?
[04:49] ---
    Hey, that'll be super fun!
[04:51] ---
    Hey!
[04:52] ---
    Where did this conversation go?!
[04:56] ---
    This year's Love Live
    will truly be difficult.
[04:58] ---
    The popularity of school idols
    is continuously growing,
[05:01] ---
    and the number of schools
    that enter every year
[05:03] ---
    also surpasses the previous year's record.
[05:06] ---
    There are only a few schools
    that reach that stage of dreams.
[05:10] ---
    I don't think our chances
    are actually that bad though.
[05:14] ---
    Kanon-chan's songs and
    singing ability are amazing.
[05:16] ---
    And Chi-chan's actually won
    at a dancing competition.
[05:21] ---
    Ren-chan's done figure skating and piano.
[05:23] ---
    Sumire-chan has experience
    being on stage ever since she was little.
[05:27] ---
    And Keke-chan's passion
    is our ultimate weapon.
[05:30] ---
    I'm not sure if we'll win, but maybe
    we could make it to the prelims...
[05:33] ---
    You're too naïve!
[05:35] ---
    Super... naïve...!
[05:38] ---
    Super naïve. Super naïve!
[05:41] ---
    --Ultra, super naïve!
    --Why do you seem different?
[05:44] ---
    I will enter us, but just know
    that to blast through,
[05:46] ---
    we'll need a magnificent song and
    an incredibly powerful performance.
[05:51] ---
    Be prepared!
[05:52] ---
    It has to be a new song, right?
[05:55] ---
    Okay, Kanon-chan, write the lyrics.
[05:58] ---
    And you want me to compose?
[06:00] ---
    Is that a no?
[06:01] ---
    Well, there're five of us now and
    I think that'll give us new direction.
[06:05] ---
    Well, I'm sure I can
    come up with something...
[06:08] ---
    Make sure it's flashy and elegant.
[06:13] ---
    What's wrong?
SIGN    "School Name: Yuigaoka Girls' High School" "Group Name:"
[06:18] ---
    Yuigaoka School Idol Club...
[06:22] ---
    "Required"
    "Group Name:"
[06:23] ---
    Our group name?
[06:24] ---
    "What's Your Name?"
[06:25] ---
    Come to think of it...
[06:27] ---
    What is our group name?
[06:31] ---
    I can't think of one at all!
[06:34] ---
    Right?
[06:35] ---
    Seriously? You never thought of one?
[06:37] ---
    Well, we were getting by
    just as Yuigaoka's school idols.
[06:42] ---
    Keke-chan did use Kuukaa
    in the beginning, but...
[06:46] ---
    Precisely!
[06:48] ---
    So now that there are five of us,
    we'll need Kuukaa's successor!
[06:51] ---
    Let's take all of our initials!
[06:54] ---
    "Chikerekasu"
[06:56] ---
    Chikerekasu?
[06:58] ---
    It sounds like internet slang.
[07:00] ---
    Cursed...
[07:01] ---
    What?!
[07:02] ---
    Well that's what it
    sounds like! Look! "Kasu"!
[07:04] ---
    Did you think of anything, Chi-chan?
[07:06] ---
    I think we should go with... Maru.
[07:10] ---
    Maru?
[07:11] ---
    For example...
[07:13] ---
    Maru Maru Circle!
[07:15] ---
    Circle means a ring, right?
[07:17] ---
    So we can have circles come together
[07:19] ---
    in this round world
    that's overflowing with circles.
[07:21] ---
    I'm so happy.
[07:23] ---
    Maru... Circle...
[07:25] ---
    Yeah! Everything starts from a circle!
[07:27] ---
    It's the world's greatest mystery
    and the beginning of all life!
[07:31] ---
    Yes! Manholes! Balls! Manmaru's eyes!
    A drop of water! The moon!
[07:36] ---
    The earth! The sun!
[07:38] ---
    All of it! It all goes round and round
    and round! Everything is a circle!
[07:45] ---
    Do you have anything, Ren-chan?
[07:47] ---
    Did you just ignore me?
[07:48] ---
    I-I can't say that I do...
[07:51] ---
    Um, I'm terribly sorry. I may not be
    understanding the directions properly...
SIGN    "Unequalled Dimensions" "Elegant Sisters" "Circular Maidens" "Nine"
[07:55] ---
    Yes! The one who understands
    this group the most is Kanon!
[08:00] ---
    Well, in that case... Maybe we should just
    go with Yuigaoka School Idols...
[08:06] ---
    That's boring.
[08:07] ---
    Well, what else is there?
    We can't think of anything.
[08:09] ---
    Oh, fine. Then I'll just have to flex
    my show business muscles and--
[08:15] ---
    I've got it!
[08:16] ---
    Galaxy!
[08:18] ---
    I believe that some
    legendary school idols...
[08:22] ---
    "Looking for name suggestions!"
SIGN    "Yuigaoka Girls' High School Idol Club group name suggestion box"
[08:26] ---
    ...asked for name suggestions like this.
[08:28] ---
    Do you think people will do it?
[08:30] ---
    I doubt there'll be anything
    decent even if they do.
[08:33] ---
    Don't worry! If we just
    leave this here, by the weekend...
[08:38] ---
    Nothing...
[08:39] ---
    It's as empty as empty can be.
[08:41] ---
    Shut your mouth!
[08:43] ---
    Do people really have
    that little interest in us?
[08:45] ---
    It could be because I was
    against this idea for so long.
[08:50] ---
    I don't think that's the case.
[08:51] ---
    I'm sure everyone knows how you felt
    after the school festival.
[08:55] ---
    Then I wonder why...
[08:58] ---
    Your group name?
[08:59] ---
    Yes. We actually don't have one yet.
[09:02] ---
    Oh, I guess you never mentioned it.
[09:06] ---
    One of our fans came up with our name.
[09:09] ---
    Yes. They just suggested it to us.
[09:12] ---
    Well, you two are pretty popular.
[09:15] ---
    Actually, back then, we really weren't.
[09:18] ---
    We were just trying to
    get people to remember us
[09:20] ---
    by putting up videos and stuff.
[09:23] ---
    Videos...
[09:24] ---
    Stream?
[09:25] ---
    Yeah. Apparently school idols
    don't only sing or dance.
[09:29] ---
    They do all sorts of other things.
[09:31] ---
    I guess we only have our songs up.
[09:34] ---
    I was careless. I was so busy
    thinking about the Love Live...
[09:40] ---
    Um...
[09:42] ---
    I do apologize if this is
    a rather silly question...
[09:44] ---
    But what exactly is video streaming?
[09:48] ---
    Are we handing videos out somewhere...?
[09:52] ---
    Wait...
[09:53] ---
    Ren-chan, you really don't know?
[09:55] ---
    Yes. I was told to stay
    far away from such things.
[10:01] ---
    Okay, then let's give it a try.
[10:06] ---
    This is video streaming?
SIGN    "Title" "Visibility" "Stream Quality" "Thumbnail"
[10:08] ---
    We're going to film with this and have
    people from all around the world watch
[10:11] ---
    so that they'll remember
    the school idols from Yuigaoka.
[10:14] ---
    Then someone will probably
    come up with a good name.
SIGN    "Title" "Visibility" "Stream Quality" "Thumbnail"
[10:18] ---
    Okay, here we go.
[10:20] ---
    Um, uh...
[10:22] ---
    U-Um... My name is Ren Hazuki,
    and I am the student council president
[10:26] ---
    at Yuigaoka Girls' High School.
[10:28] ---
    Um, as school idols, we would
    like to enter the Love Li...
SIGN    "What's going on" "Whoa, what!?" "What's happening??" "You've got this" "So cute"
[10:41] ---
    "She's so nervous"
    "Student Council President"
    "Keep it up"
[10:45] ---
    What in the world is this?!
[10:47] ---
    People watching you are sending messages.
    Try replying to them.
[10:54] ---
    "So cute"...
[10:56] ---
    "You're beautiful."
[10:57] ---
    "Your hairstyle is lovely"...
[11:00] ---
    Honestly! Please don't
    start this out of nowhere!
[11:03] ---
    We were just testing things out.
[11:05] ---
    Please shut this off immediately!
[11:07] ---
    What?!
[11:09] ---
    Okay, are you ready? Do you know
    what you're going to say?
[11:12] ---
    All set!
[11:13] ---
    You should have let me properly
    prepare like this to begin with.
[11:17] ---
    Okay, here we go!
[11:19] ---
    Wait a moment.
[11:20] ---
    Huh?
[11:21] ---
    What about you, Kanon-san?
    Are you not going to be filmed?
[11:24] ---
    Huh? Me?
[11:27] ---
    I'm filming?
[11:28] ---
    You're filming?
[11:31] ---
    That's not fair
    after you forced us to do this.
[11:34] ---
    Precisely!
[11:36] ---
    Yeah, yeah!
[11:40] ---
    Hello. We're the school idols
    from Yuigaoka Girls' High.
[11:46] ---
    First, we'll introduce ourselves.
[11:49] ---
    W-We are doing school idol
    activities at Yuigaoka...
[11:54] ---
    Actually, this is embarrassing,
    so let's stop.
[11:56] ---
    Who do you think you are?!
[11:58] ---
    --Ow, ow, ow!
    --Did you really just say that?
[12:00] ---
    Hey, we're on camera.
[12:02] ---
    Chisato!
[12:04] ---
    Circles, circles, circles!
[12:07] ---
    --Go!
    --Huh?
[12:09] ---
    Uh... I... ♬ Giant isopod! ♬
[12:12] ---
    Hide them more!
[12:15] ---
    Circles!
[12:16] ---
    ♬ Giant isopod! ♬
[12:18] ---
    Amazing! We just got a flood of likes.
[12:21] ---
    How the heck are we supposed to be
    happy getting likes for this?!
[12:27] ---
    We basically got nowhere.
[12:30] ---
    This is all because of you.
[12:32] ---
    What? Me?!
[12:34] ---
    And we couldn't practice at all today
[12:37] ---
    because of all this fuss
    over our name and stream.
[12:39] ---
    Let's forget about the name for now
[12:41] ---
    and we'll need to start properly
    practicing again tomorrow.
[12:44] ---
    So, are you done with the song yet?
[12:47] ---
    Song?
[12:48] ---
    Oh, right. Kanon-san was
    supposed to come up with lyrics.
[12:51] ---
    Huh? But the music comes first.
[12:54] ---
    I thought I was supposed to
    compose after the lyrics.
[12:57] ---
    No way. I was going to write the lyrics
    after the music was done...
[13:05] ---
    What?!
[13:10] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[13:13] ---
    Eyes up front! No wobbling!
[13:16] ---
    Just five more seconds! Three! Two! One!
[13:20] ---
    And done.
[13:24] ---
    Next, we're going to do some jazz dancing
[13:26] ---
    --and then do three sets
    of situps and squats.
[13:27] ---
    --My legs are stiff.
    --and then do three sets
    of situps and squats.
[13:29] ---
    Really?!
[13:31] ---
    We're basically an athletic club.
[13:33] ---
    What did you expect?
[13:34] ---
    We don't have a song,
    or any choreography done,
[13:36] ---
    so we just have to cover the basics.
[13:38] ---
    Are we really going to make it in time?
[13:41] ---
    Well...
[13:46] ---
    Stare...
[13:50] ---
    I know! I know, okay?!
[13:52] ---
    But if it's supposed to be a song that
    represents our group and the school,
[13:56] ---
    it get's pretty hard...
[13:57] ---
    I don't think you need to
    think that hard on it.
[14:00] ---
    Correct! Just put the feelings you feel
    when you see the five of us into a song!
[14:06] ---
    Okay, then let me ask.
[14:07] ---
    Keke-chan, what do you feel
    when you see the five of us?
[14:11] ---
    Well, um...
[14:15] ---
    Like we're supreme...
    The best... Excellent...
[14:21] ---
    Or perhaps not.
[14:22] ---
    See?
[14:24] ---
    Well, obviously, we're clearly
    nothing but galaxy.
[14:27] ---
    What? I'm pretty sure we're circles.
[14:29] ---
    I mean our name is
    Maru Maru Circle after all.
[14:32] ---
    We've declined that name.
[14:34] ---
    Then what exactly is our name?
[14:36] ---
    Well...
[14:37] ---
    See? You're all in the same boat as me.
[14:40] ---
    This is hard. We're all pretty different,
[14:43] ---
    and it's not like we all first came together
    with a common goal or anything.
[14:47] ---
    Yes, that's quite understandable, but...
[14:50] ---
    But we don't have
    that much more time to enter.
[14:53] ---
    Are we going to give up?
[14:55] ---
    Of course, we aren't!
[14:57] ---
    In that case...
[14:59] ---
    Yes...?
[15:00] ---
    In that case...
[15:03] ---
    What is this?
[15:05] ---
    The Japanese art of room confinement!
[15:07] ---
    You're not leaving until
    you think of something!
[15:13] ---
    That's not fair. Why is it all on me?
[15:37] ---
    What's this over here?"
[15:39] ---
    Wow! A giant bed!
[15:42] ---
    Hup!
[15:44] ---
    It's so fluffy!
[15:46] ---
    I've always wanted to sleep on
    a bed like this! Rolly roll!
[15:51] ---
    Zzz...
[15:55] ---
    Kanon-chan.
[15:58] ---
    Are you done with the song yet?
[15:59] ---
    Chi-chan.
[16:01] ---
    Keke-chan?!
[16:02] ---
    It appears...
[16:04] ---
    ...that you'll need some supervision.
[16:07] ---
    Stare...
[16:13] ---
    Um, uh...
[16:15] ---
    Yes?
[16:18] ---
    Oh! It's Maru Maru Galaxy!
[16:25] ---
    Ow!
[16:27] ---
    What the?
[16:31] ---
    Ch-Chibi... It's been a while.
[16:37] ---
    No!
[16:41] ---
    So that's what happened.
[16:43] ---
    That must've been rough.
[16:45] ---
    I can't believe you have to
    do it all by yourself.
[16:48] ---
    I know, right?!
[16:49] ---
    Not to mention, they're like,
    you should write the lyrics!
[16:52] ---
    And, "I can't come up with
    music without lyrics!"
[16:55] ---
    They're relying on me too much!
[16:57] ---
    Morning!
[16:58] ---
    Ah, Kanon!
[17:00] ---
    Are you done with the lyrics?
[17:02] ---
    Well, actually...
[17:04] ---
    But yesterday...
[17:06] ---
    I thought of them so we're good!
[17:08] ---
    I'll write the rest at home!
[17:10] ---
    Isn't that what you said?
[17:12] ---
    Well, I mean, I figured you wouldn't
    let me go home otherwise.
[17:16] ---
    You lied to us?! Then you're
    no better than this giant isopod!
[17:21] ---
    Stop saying that so casually!
[17:22] ---
    Oh, come on. Kanon-chan is doing her best.
[17:25] ---
    Yeah. Not to mention,
    I know how Kanon-chan feels.
[17:29] ---
    It's really hard to round
    all of you up into one image.
[17:33] ---
    You think so?
[17:34] ---
    You know how you all were
    asking for name suggestions?
[17:37] ---
    We were all talking about it...
[17:40] ---
    But couldn't come up with anything.
[17:42] ---
    Yeah. You're all just getting started,
    so you're still a blank slate.
[17:48] ---
    This might sound mean,
    but you have no distinguishing features.
[17:54] ---
    See you later.
[17:55] ---
    Bye!
[18:00] ---
    We're not exactly a bunch of
    talented stars who got together either...
[18:05] ---
    But we're not all ordinary people
[18:07] ---
    who came together to overcome something...
[18:11] ---
    Meaning our chances at succeeding
    in show business are nonexistent.
[18:15] ---
    We're in the warring states area of school
    idols right now. We stand no chance.
[18:19] ---
    You think so?
[18:24] ---
    Kanon-chan?
[18:25] ---
    I'm going to skip practice today.
[18:27] ---
    That's rather sudden.
[18:28] ---
    I think I might've come up with something
    with what we were talking about.
[18:32] ---
    You mean lyrics? Or our group name?
[18:35] ---
    I don't know, but... All of it!
[18:41] ---
    All of it?
[18:42] ---
    Yeah. I think I figured out
    exactly what the five of us are.
[18:43] ---
    Wow...Dreaming!
[18:47] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[18:49] ---
    Sorry we always rely on you.
[18:52] ---
    No. I'm sorry I'm taking so long, too.
[18:55] ---
    Whenever I'm walking by myself
[18:56] ---
    But I think I finally found the answer!
[18:58] ---
    You look pretty certain.
[19:00] ---
    I think of all these things I want to do
[19:00] ---
    Then let us practice!
[19:02] ---
    Let's start with running! Follow me!
[19:04] ---
    Can I do it? Don't worry!
[19:05] ---
    You always pass out.
[19:08] ---
    I wonder who just answered my question
[19:15] ---
    I just can't stay still
[19:19] ---
    The weather's so nice in the city
[19:24] ---
    I think something's about to happen
[19:28] ---
    Eventually, I end up running
[19:31] ---
    I have a feeling I'll
    coincidentally run into you
[19:36] ---
    Listen, hey, listen!
[19:38] ---
    I want to start today
[19:42] ---
    Ah, but I just can't find
    the right words yet
[19:46] ---
    Forever (Dreaming) in my heart (Dreaming)
[19:49] ---
    "Hey Hey!"
[19:50] ---
    I've always had this Dreaming Energy
[19:53] ---
    Listen, hey, listen!
[19:56] ---
    I want to start today
    so I want to tell you immediately
[20:03] ---
    If we all connect
[20:07] ---
    We can really have some fun;
    I just know it!
[20:10] ---
    "School Idol Club"
[20:18] ---
    Well?
[20:21] ---
    I think it's great!
[20:23] ---
    I believe these lyrics accurately
    despite who we are right now.
[20:26] ---
    Thanks! Also, I thought up a group name!
[20:30] ---
    "Nebula Girls!" "Circle"
    "Transcendent Mother Goddess" "Galaxy!"
[20:34] ---
    "Liella!"?
[20:36] ---
    I tried to base it off of the French word
    "relier" which means to connect.
[20:40] ---
    You know, because Ren-chan's mother
    wanted all of our feelings to connect
[20:46] ---
    when she named this school.
[20:48] ---
    Yes.
[20:49] ---
    We can do the same as school idols.
[20:53] ---
    And I was hoping we could all be connected
    through various colors of light.
[20:57] ---
    Light...
[21:03] ---
    Red, blue, green...
[21:07] ---
    Through being connected and tied together,
[21:10] ---
    we'll become a light filled with
    different colors we could never imagine.
[21:14] ---
    And that's only possible because
    we don't have any colors yet.
[21:19] ---
    Because we come from this school
    that's only just begun.
[21:23] ---
    Because we're us...
[21:25] ---
    That's not a bad idea.
[21:27] ---
    "Liella!"...
[21:29] ---
    "Liella!"...
[21:30] ---
    "Liella!"...
[21:31] ---
    "Liella!"...
[21:34] ---
    "Liella!"...
[21:39] ---
    Okay, now that that's settled...
[21:42] ---
    Hiyah!
[21:47] ---
    We're Yuigaoka High's
    school idols! Liella!
[21:52] ---
    I told you this was too big!
[21:55] ---
    This is perfect! We have to
    keep getting even more famous!
[21:58] ---
    We have to win.
[22:00] ---
    Yeah!
[22:03] ---
    Okay, everyone. I'm going to enter us!
[22:07] ---
    Our name is...
[22:10] ---
    Liella!
[22:11] ---
    "Group Name:
    Liella!"
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
[23:37] ---
    Next time, "Check It Out!!"

    Previously on Love Live! Superstar!!
[00:03] ---
    It's finally Love Live season
    and we enter our group.
[00:09] ---
    --But...
    --Our group name?
[00:09] ---
    "Required"
    "Group Name:"
[00:10] ---
    "Looking for name suggestions!"
[00:11] ---
    We were trying to figure out our group
    name and come up with a new song, but...
[00:13] ---
    "Chikerekasu"
[00:15] ---
    I can't think of one at all!
[00:18] ---
    And that's when Kanon-chan
    was hit with dreaming energy!
[00:19] ---
    "Hey Hey!"
[00:21] ---
    "Nebula Girls!" "Circle"
    "Transcendent Mother Goddess" "Galaxy!"
[00:21] ---
    "Liella!"?
[00:23] ---
    And I was hoping we could all be connected
    through various colors of light.
[00:27] ---
    Our name was finally decided and we were
    officially heading towards the Love Live!
[00:32] ---
    This is it.
[00:35] ---
    These are the schools that made it
[00:38] ---
    into the regional prelims!
[00:44] ---
    Why are there so many?
[00:46] ---
    This is really the regional prelims?
[00:47] ---
    This many schools entered?
[00:50] ---
    Well, this year is the biggest
    competition with the most schools.
[00:55] ---
    So it's going to be very competitive?
[00:57] ---
    Because there are so many
    entries at the regional level,
[00:59] ---
    there are rumors that
    there will be something to
[01:01] ---
    knock back the number of entries prior.
[01:03] ---
    So we might not even
    make it to the regionals?
[01:05] ---
    I'm not certain,
[01:06] ---
    but there's talk saying it'll be hard
    for things to go like last year.
[01:09] ---
    For example...
[01:10] ---
    So, like, are they gonna decide
    with rock-paper-scissors?
[01:15] ---
    First comes rock...
[01:16] ---
    Rock-paper--
[01:17] ---
    Yeah, that's probably not how it'll go...
[01:19] ---
    Well, then what else is there?
[01:23] ---
    I guess...
[01:26] ---
    We'll just have to go and find out.
[01:28] ---
    By going to the meeting
    explaining the regional prelims!
[01:31] ---
    Ta-da! This year's Love Live
    is finally about to begin!
[01:35] ---
    I'm sure that you're all wondering what's
    going on with the regional prelims,
[01:38] ---
    so I'll go ahead and announce that.
[01:41] ---
    --Yeah!
    --Here we go...
[01:43] ---
    --Things are just getting started!
    --Yeah.
[01:46] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:52] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:57] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[02:14] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[02:18] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[02:22] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[02:25] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[02:27] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:29] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:35] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:39] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:42] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:47] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:49] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:52] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:57] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[03:03] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[03:09] ---
    As fast as they can run
[03:15] ---
    "Check It Out!!"
[03:17] ---
    The regional prelims are
    very exciting every year,
[03:21] ---
    but there are so many entries this year,
[03:24] ---
    it'd be difficult to have
    all the groups sing,
[03:27] ---
    so after much deliberation,
    we decided on rock-paper-scissors...
[03:30] ---
    See? I told you so! I told you so,
    I totally told you so!
[03:33] ---
    We'll win! We're going to win!
[03:35] ---
    ...at first, but that would be
    too unfortunate for the losing groups.
[03:41] ---
    What?
[03:42] ---
    Stop being so confusing!
[03:44] ---
    We decided each region would have
    a theme to their songs.
[03:47] ---
    Theme?
[03:49] ---
    Each group will have to create a song
    that fits their given theme
[03:51] ---
    which will be performed
    at the competition.
[03:54] ---
    We're in the southwest Tokyo region
    which includes Shibuya,
[03:56] ---
    the center of the latest trends.
[03:59] ---
    Which means that your
    assignment will be... this!
[04:04] ---
    Rap?
[04:05] ---
    By rap, do you mean...
[04:08] ---
    Yes, that rap!
[04:10] ---
    Hey, yo! Each group will be
    rapping their way
[04:13] ---
    into the competition, yo!
[04:17] ---
    If you don't finish your song in time
[04:20] ---
    that's gonna be your last rhyme, yo!
[04:25] ---
    Hey, yo! The name is Kanon Shibuya!
[04:28] ---
    Though the name's Shibuya
[04:29] ---
    the Crossing scrambles my brain and...
[04:31] ---
    I can't... think of what else to say.
[04:35] ---
    Well, rap's origin is from the streets.
[04:38] ---
    Then are these the official outfits?
[04:41] ---
    Chi-chan, you do this! This is different
    from singing and it's hard!
[04:45] ---
    Okay.
[04:46] ---
    We were taught some rap in our
    dance classes, so I'll give it a try.
[04:52] ---
    Heyo. My name is Chisato.
    Chisato Arashi.
[04:55] ---
    From Shibuya I came
    and dancing's my game!
[04:58] ---
    A storm advances when Chi-chan dances!
[05:05] ---
    Hey!
[05:06] ---
    Um... what happened to rapping?
[05:08] ---
    Oh, right.
[05:09] ---
    Well, when I start dancing,
    it's hard to think about anything else.
[05:14] ---
    I'd like for Chisato-san
    to continue to help us get
[05:17] ---
    the lead on other groups with our dancing,
[05:19] ---
    so she might not be
    the best person for this task.
[05:21] ---
    Which leaves us with...
[05:23] ---
    I-I couldn't possibly!
    I don't know anything about this.
[05:27] ---
    Don't worry. Just try to think up some
    rhymes and sing what comes to mind.
[05:31] ---
    Hey, first you can
    start with an intro, yo!
[05:36] ---
    I-Introduce myself by... rhyming?
[05:41] ---
    Fall, filled with scarlet
[05:43] ---
    With this song I will present
[05:44] ---
    Ren Hazuki.
[05:46] ---
    My feelings still belong to
    the 16th night...
[05:50] ---
    That's a haiku.
[05:51] ---
    It is actually a tanka!
[05:52] ---
    You told me that I had to rhyme!
[05:54] ---
    By the way, I used 16th night
    because I'm 16, and...
[06:00] ---
    None of this matters.
[06:02] ---
    If Ren-chan can't do it, then Keke-chan!
[06:05] ---
    Hey, yo! Check it out!
[06:11] ---
    And now it's all in Chinese.
[06:14] ---
    So the only one left is Sumire-chan.
[06:16] ---
    But she can't! This is our first
    assignment towards our precious Love Live!
[06:20] ---
    We can't leave this up to the one who has
    the lowest potential out of all of us...
[06:25] ---
    Hey, yo! Now that I've
    got your attention
[06:28] ---
    Yuigaoka, allow me this mention!
[06:31] ---
    Sumire Heanna is my name
[06:34] ---
    I'm an AB and being a shrine
    priestess is my game. Hey!
[06:37] ---
    Seriously?
[06:38] ---
    Wow...
[06:39] ---
    I can't believe you thought
    of that on the spot...
[06:42] ---
    Need I remind you that I've been in
    show business ever since I was little?
[06:47] ---
    I know how to adlib.
[06:49] ---
    We've... got a chance!
[06:56] ---
    Wait, does this mean...
[06:58] ---
    What's wrong?
[06:59] ---
    You're the one who's
    going to have to sing this.
[07:04] ---
    N-Now wait just a second...
[07:06] ---
    What's the matter?
[07:07] ---
    Well, um... Uh, this might
    be a silly question...
[07:11] ---
    Does that mean that my position will be...
[07:13] ---
    The center.
[07:15] ---
    Considering the assignment,
[07:16] ---
    we'd want you to be singing
    from the most prominent position.
[07:20] ---
    I was against it...
[07:22] ---
    Oh...
[07:28] ---
    What?!
[07:29] ---
    You just got it?
[07:30] ---
    I-I mean, we're talking about me, here!
[07:32] ---
    Are we really, positively okay
    with me being the center?
[07:34] ---
    Yes, we already established that.
[07:36] ---
    B-But, I mean...
[07:38] ---
    Maybe we should reconsider.
[07:41] ---
    Why do you say that?
[07:43] ---
    She's lived her whole life not being
    able to stand in the center.
[07:47] ---
    Maybe that means that
    she's not fit to be there...
[07:50] ---
    If we're going there, I wasn't
    able to sing in front of people.
[07:53] ---
    And I'm basically a beginner
    when it comes to singing on stage.
[07:57] ---
    But...
[07:59] ---
    The past is the past.
    What's important is what we do now.
[08:02] ---
    --Yup. We just got our name "Liella!,"
    so we can basically start things new.
[08:06] ---
    --Sneaky sneak...
    --Yup. We just got our name "Liella!,"
    so we can basically start things new.
[08:07] ---
    --Sneaky sneak...
    --Well, if you two insist...
[08:11] ---
    Anyway, if you're going to
    stand in the center,
[08:13] ---
    you need to take this seriously.
[08:15] ---
    You better not take
    being a school idol lightly!
[08:17] ---
    I know that. Who do you think I am?
    I grew up in show business--
[08:22] ---
    You're just proving my point!
[08:24] ---
    This year's Love Live is
    going to be a struggle to get into.
[08:27] ---
    Please be serious about
    making it to the top!
[08:30] ---
    F-Fine, jeez...
[08:35] ---
    Are you that worried?
[08:36] ---
    No, not exactly...
[08:39] ---
    Sumire-san has never been the center?
[08:43] ---
    She always talks about
    how she wants to be up front,
[08:46] ---
    but when we actually
    try to get her to do it,
[08:48] ---
    she tries to put it on me,
    Chi-chan, or Keke-chan...
[08:52] ---
    Maybe she doesn't want to do it?
[08:54] ---
    She probably doesn't have the confidence
    because of everything she's been through.
[08:59] ---
    But if the five of us really want to win,
[09:03] ---
    we all need to put our all into this,
[09:05] ---
    and be invested enough to be the center.
[09:10] ---
    So you should support her, too, Keke-chan.
[09:13] ---
    If she puts her all into this,
[09:14] ---
    I think Sumire-chan will show her
    true potential and be unstoppable.
[09:18] ---
    Support...?
[09:20] ---
    Yeah. Despite how it seems,
    I think it actually gets to her
[09:23] ---
    that she made you mad
    when it comes to school idols.
[09:37] ---
    95, 96...
[09:41] ---
    ...97, 98...
[09:46] ---
    ...99, 100...
[09:55] ---
    How long are you going to practice, Sis?
    It's time for dinner.
[09:59] ---
    You can go ahead and eat.
[10:15] ---
    The center...
[10:16] ---
    "Autumn School Arts Festival"
[10:16] ---
    Being a villager is a very important role.
[10:19] ---
    I...
[10:20] ---
    We'll have you play the friend
    of our protagonist, Sumire-san.
[10:25] ---
    I'm...
[10:26] ---
    And the winner is...
[10:34] ---
    I'm...
[10:39] ---
    A-e-i-u-e-o-a-o! Ka-ke-ki-ku-ke-ko-ka-ko!
[10:45] ---
    Sa-se-shi-su-se-so-sa-so!
    Ta-te-chi-tsu-te-to-ta-to!
[10:54] ---
    An outfit?
[11:00] ---
    What's going on?
[11:01] ---
    Making the outfits is my job,
    so hurry up and put it on.
[11:08] ---
    This is mine?!
[11:11] ---
    You don't really have a presence,
[11:14] ---
    so I made yours stand out a bit more
    so you have a chance as the center.
[11:19] ---
    Then let's have you
    put that on and try singing.
[11:22] ---
    We were thinking about getting
    the other students' opinions,
[11:26] ---
    so let's take a video
    and have them look at it.
[11:28] ---
    Huh? But, I...
[11:39] ---
    You look great, Sumire-chan!
[11:41] ---
    You really do look lovely.
[11:43] ---
    Great job, Keke-chan.
[11:45] ---
    I-It's not like I did much...
[11:48] ---
    Well? Do you feel
    a little more confident now?
[11:53] ---
    Okay, here we go. Music...
[11:56] ---
    ...start!
[12:01] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[12:05] ---
    Hm... It'd be better if
    Sumire-chan sang this part, too.
[12:10] ---
    Kanon-chan.
[12:11] ---
    Oh, morning. How'd the video turn out?
[12:14] ---
    Well, actually...
[12:21] ---
    We should switch?
[12:23] ---
    Yeah...
[12:24] ---
    Everyone seemed to love
    the substance of the song.
[12:27] ---
    They said they loved it and we'd be
    able to get through the prelims, but...
[12:32] ---
    But they said we should switch centers?
[12:34] ---
    Yeah. They kept suggesting
    you or Ren-chan.
[12:38] ---
    That's just because that's
    what they're used to seeing, isn't it?
[12:43] ---
    I said that, too, but...
[12:45] ---
    "I asked my friends and
    they said the same thing."
[12:48] ---
    "She's trying too hard..."
[12:51] ---
    "If you want to get through the prelims,
    you might want to considering swapping."
[12:55] ---
    What do you think we should do?
[12:57] ---
    Isn't it obvious?
[13:00] ---
    Sumire-chan...
[13:02] ---
    We're school idols for this school,
[13:04] ---
    so we should obviously do what they want.
[13:07] ---
    But...
[13:08] ---
    I always thought it was weird
[13:09] ---
    to have someone like me
    who's been in show business
[13:11] ---
    to be the center at some prelims for
    an amateur contest like the Love Live.
[13:17] ---
    I'll wait for my turn at the finals.
[13:22] ---
    Sumire-chan, wait.
[13:25] ---
    Wha--
[13:27] ---
    Why are you running away?
[13:30] ---
    I'm against this. We already decided this,
    so you should be the center!
[13:36] ---
    Did you not hear me?
    I already made the outfits.
[13:39] ---
    It doesn't matter what anyone else says.
    You should be the center.
[13:43] ---
    Keke-chan...
[13:46] ---
    I can't...
[13:48] ---
    You may say that, but I already know...
[13:50] ---
    In the end, it's never me!
[13:52] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[14:09] ---
    Sumire-chan's not coming...
[14:12] ---
    Yeah.
[14:15] ---
    We really need to decide
    what to do about the center.
[14:19] ---
    What do you think, Ren-chan?
[14:20] ---
    It's a difficult situation.
[14:22] ---
    Sumire-san is a very
    skilled singer and dancer.
[14:26] ---
    But if I was asked if she was
    the best in our group...
[14:31] ---
    Kanon-chan is the best singer.
[14:32] ---
    And the best dancer is Chi-chan.
[14:34] ---
    Ren-chan is the most elegant,
    and Keke-chan shines the most.
[14:39] ---
    Sumire-chan has
    all of these qualities, but...
[14:43] ---
    That's probably why her dreams
    haven't come true yet.
[14:48] ---
    Yeah, and that's exactly why I think
    that she should be the center.
[14:52] ---
    Because she has all of
    the skills she needs.
[15:01] ---
    Hello, Sis?
[15:04] ---
    Yeah.
[15:06] ---
    I got a text from Dad.
[15:09] ---
    The Love Live?
[15:10] ---
    Yeah, it's coming up soon.
[15:13] ---
    We don't know the results yet.
[15:16] ---
    Yeah, I know.
[15:18] ---
    I remember that I promised
    that if I don't make it,
[15:21] ---
    I'll come home.
[15:23] ---
    Go home?!
[15:24] ---
    Yeah. We're busy practicing
    right now, so I'll let you go.
[15:38] ---
    Sorry to keep you waiting.
[15:39] ---
    I guess we can start with the four of us.
[15:42] ---
    I'll try contacting
    Sumire-chan again later.
[15:49] ---
    Sumire-chan.
[15:56] ---
    I guess I'm a little late.
[15:58] ---
    Is that really how you're
    going to act as the center?
[16:01] ---
    I told you to take this seriously.
[16:03] ---
    The center?
[16:05] ---
    Yeah. We were just
    talking about it, and...
[16:09] ---
    We still want you to be the center.
[16:12] ---
    But why?
[16:13] ---
    Why?
[16:15] ---
    Because you pity me?
[16:17] ---
    Even though no matter how hard I try,
    I can never be the center?
[16:20] ---
    No. Kanon-san was just...
[16:22] ---
    What other possible reason is there?!
[16:28] ---
    I don't want to be the center out of pity.
[16:32] ---
    Everyone at school says that
    someone else should be the center.
[16:36] ---
    Then...
[16:37] ---
    This isn't about pity!
[16:40] ---
    I would never make you
    an outfit out of pity!
[16:46] ---
    You can have that outfit back.
[16:48] ---
    If you still insist on me
    being the center,
[16:51] ---
    I'm going to quit being a school idol.
[16:53] ---
    But...
[16:55] ---
    Is that the extent of how you feel
    about school idols?!
[16:59] ---
    Weren't you going to finally obtain
    the spotlight at the Love Live?!
[17:02] ---
    We have to win, right?!
[17:06] ---
    You have to win this
    no matter what, right?
[17:12] ---
    Wait...
[17:15] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[17:16] ---
    Wait!
[17:21] ---
    Wait!
[17:25] ---
    Just shut up already! We're done talking.
[17:31] ---
    You heard my conversation
    on the phone, didn't you?
[17:35] ---
    It was wrong of you to eavesdrop.
[17:39] ---
    Do Kanon and the others know?
[17:42] ---
    --No.
    --Why haven't you told them?
[17:44] ---
    Because I don't want them to be
    school idols for my own sake.
[17:48] ---
    But we have to win, don't we?
    We need to win! So--
[17:52] ---
    And that's exactly why
    I want you to be the center!
[17:56] ---
    Why are you being so stubborn about this?
[17:58] ---
    It's not about being stubborn.
[18:00] ---
    But you are being stubborn.
[18:01] ---
    It's basically because it was Kanon's
    idea. You didn't want me to do this.
[18:04] ---
    Or that you have no choice
    since I'm practicing...
[18:07] ---
    Or that you pity me.
[18:10] ---
    You were watching
    me practice, weren't you?
[18:12] ---
    I know everything there is about you!
[18:16] ---
    You don't understand a thing.
[18:18] ---
    Do you really think I can
    let you be the center
[18:21] ---
    at my precious Love Live because of that?
[18:23] ---
    But you already did.
[18:26] ---
    I did that because I thought
    you were worthy of that position.
[18:32] ---
    Watching you practice. Hearing you sing...
[18:35] ---
    I thought you were worthy of
    being Liella!'s center.
[18:39] ---
    I know that you have what it takes.
[18:45] ---
    So just accept this already!
    Just like how I put everything
[18:50] ---
    into making this for you.
[18:56] ---
    That's...
[18:58] ---
    Sumire-chan...
[18:59] ---
    I made this for you.
[19:02] ---
    Because you're our center.
[19:17] ---
    Hey!
[19:20] ---

[19:38] ---
    Ow...
[19:40] ---
    Jeez...
[19:45] ---
    Sumire...
[19:50] ---
    That's the first time
    you actually said my name.
[19:52] ---
    That doesn't matter.
[19:55] ---
    Make sure you don't
    embarrass us as Liella!'s center.
[19:59] ---
    Of course. Who do you
    think you're talking to?
[20:03] ---
    Finally, the Yuigaoka school idols are
    going to stand on the stage at Love Live.
[20:08] ---
    I'm so excited.
[20:09] ---
    Yeah.
[20:10] ---
    We're actually connecting with
    a lot of other school idols...
[20:15] ---
    ...and our voices will resonate.
[20:16] ---
    Galaxy!
[20:37] ---
    Hey, but I want to smile more
[20:39] ---
    But I want to be more honest
[20:41] ---
    Hey, but I want to shine right now
[20:43] ---
    Let's stop those feelings right here
[20:45] ---
    Hey, let's stop complaining
[20:47] ---
    I'll shine down on you immediately
[20:50] ---
    Once I grab ahold of your hand
[20:52] ---
    I'll never let go of it
[20:54] ---
    I'll prove to you
[20:58] ---
    That nothing is impossible
[21:03] ---
    I'll crack that poker face of yours
[21:06] ---
    I'm going to make you mine
[21:12] ---
    Let's sing
[21:13] ---
    I'll take you to a world
    that you've never seen before
[21:17] ---
    You're about to see
    a fantastic wonderland
[21:21] ---
    Fantastic! Amazing!
    But this is nonfiction!!
[21:26] ---
    Let's open this new door
[21:29] ---

[21:42] ---
    Do Da Da Follow me
[21:43] ---
    Do Da Da Love me do!
[22:03] ---
    Thanks, Keke.
[22:06] ---
    Sumire...
[22:09] ---
    Hey, what are you...
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
[23:37] ---
    Next time, "Once More, at That Place."

    Previously on Love Live! Superstar!!
[00:03] ---
    The school idol competition,
    the Love Live, has finally begun.
[00:07] ---
    We were given a theme for the regional
    prelims, which happened to be rap!
[00:10] ---
    Sumire Heanna is my name
[00:13] ---
    I'm an AB and being
    a shrine priestess is my game.
[00:16] ---
    We discovered Sumire-chan's new talent
    and decided to let her be the center.
[00:21] ---
    The center...
[00:22] ---
    Please reach!
[00:23] ---
    Sumire...
[00:24] ---
    That's the first time
    you actually said my name.
[00:26] ---
    Today's finally the day
    they announce the results!
[00:27] ---
    How will things end up for Liella!?
[00:31] ---
    "Once More, at That Place"
[00:35] ---
    Please, Lord...
[00:37] ---
    Well? Well, how did we do?!
[00:39] ---
    It's noon.
[00:40] ---
    The results should be up.
[00:42] ---
    Don't worry! We did our best!
[00:45] ---
    Okay, here we go.
[00:48] ---
    Eight groups will be getting through
    the regional prelims.
[00:51] ---
    Entry number 1, Sunny Passion.
[00:53] ---
    Of course.
[00:54] ---
    No surprise.
[00:56] ---
    And...
[00:58] ---
    Entry number 21, Neo Mutant Girls.
[01:01] ---
    Entry number 62, from Asakusa, Sky Lovely.
[01:04] ---
    Entry number 70,
    from Kagurazaka, Dash Gumi.
[01:08] ---
    Entry number...
[01:09] ---
    Come on!
[01:12] ---
    Huh?
[01:15] ---
    The computer froze!
[01:17] ---
    Oh, come on! Don't leave us hanging!
[01:20] ---
    Come on! Move! Work!
[01:22] ---
    Perhaps it's because so many people are
    trying to access the site at once.
[01:25] ---
    I'll try using my phone.
[01:30] ---
    Huh? A message from Sunny Passion?
[01:33] ---
    "Congratulations"
    "Let's both have
    wonderful performances!!"
[01:33] ---
    "Congratulations"...
[01:35] ---
    Does that mean...
[01:37] ---
    Oh, it's working again.
[01:42] ---
    We did it!
[01:45] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[01:51] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:56] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[02:13] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[02:17] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[02:21] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[02:24] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[02:26] ---
    The sky's so bright
[02:28] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[02:34] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[02:38] ---
    Make every day fun?
[02:41] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[02:46] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[02:48] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[02:51] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[02:56] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[03:02] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[03:08] ---
    As fast as they can run
[03:14] ---
    "Congratulations for getting into
    the Tokyo tournament!!"
[03:15] ---
    Congratulations!
[03:17] ---
    We were all saying how we knew you'd
    make it through the regional prelims!
[03:21] ---
    Sumire-chan, you were so cool!
[03:23] ---
    Everyone who saw you
    up close became a fan!
[03:27] ---
    O-Of course! Who do you think I am?
[03:30] ---
    Says the giant isopod who was
    chickening out right until we got onstage.
[03:34] ---
    Shut up!
[03:35] ---
    All of you working so hard
    gave us strength, too!
[03:39] ---
    You're the hope of our school.
[03:42] ---
    If there's anything we can do
    to help you out, let us know!
[03:46] ---
    Thanks!
[03:47] ---
    This is an announcement for
    the members of the School Idol Club.
[03:51] ---
    The members of the School Idol Club
    are to come to my office after school.
[03:55] ---
    I repeat.
[03:57] ---
    The members of the School Idol Club
    are to come to my office after school.
[04:02] ---
    Are you getting an award?!
[04:04] ---
    Hopefully, but she sounded sorta mad.
[04:07] ---
    I wonder what's going on.
[04:12] ---
    It's all my fault.
[04:14] ---
    Ren-chan...
[04:15] ---
    You? What could you have possibly done?
[04:17] ---
    Well, the other day when I was in
    the club room, the computer was on, and...
[04:23] ---
    Honestly...
[04:25] ---
    "A Forbidden World"
[04:30] ---
    "A Forbidden World"
[04:33] ---
    "A Forbidden World"
[04:36] ---
    "A Forbidden World"
[04:40] ---
    Curiosity got the better of me
    and I clicked it...
[04:44] ---
    How could I have done such a thing?
    I'm the student council president.
[04:48] ---
    Oh, I fail. I'll be suspended.
    Kicked out of school.
[04:51] ---
    My life is now over...
[04:52] ---
    Yeah, I don't think anyone
    found that out...
[04:57] ---
    Yes?
[04:58] ---
    Please excuse us.
[05:00] ---
    Come in.
[05:02] ---
    What's wrong? Did you eat something bad?
[05:05] ---
    N-No. It's just...
[05:08] ---
    I'm so terribly sorry!
[05:10] ---
    I, Ren Hazuki, despite being
    the student council president,
[05:12] ---
    could not contain my curiosity and looked!
[05:14] ---
    What are you talking about?
[05:17] ---
    The reason I had you stop by
    is because I received this.
[05:20] ---
    It's from Shibuya-san and
    Arashi-san's grade school.
[05:23] ---
    They want you to sing there.
[05:25] ---
    Our grade school?
[05:28] ---
    Yes. They wanted you to sing
    as school idols for their students
[05:32] ---
    since you came from that school.
[05:35] ---
    Oh, I see...
[05:36] ---
    That's magnificent! Let us go immediately!
[05:39] ---
    So I can tell them "yes," then?
[05:43] ---
    --Oh, thank goodness...
[05:43] ---
    --Is something wrong?
    --Oh, thank goodness...
[05:45] ---
    Oh, no. It's a very lovely request.
[05:52] ---
    Everyone, keep your balance.
[05:55] ---
    Keke-san! You should be able
    to do this by now!
[05:59] ---
    Just ten more minutes!
[06:13] ---
    We're next, aren't we?
[06:17] ---
    Don't worry!
[06:18] ---
    Kanon-chan...
[06:19] ---
    Singing isn't scary. It's fun!
[06:22] ---
    We all practiced so hard
    because we love to sing, right?
[06:31] ---
    If we sing with those feelings,
    it'll get through to the audience.
[06:34] ---
    These fun feelings will get through
    to people all over the world!
[06:39] ---
    So let's sing! And have fun!
[06:44] ---
    Next up, we have the Aoyama Minami
    Elementary School choir.
[07:08] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[07:09] ---
    The song started!
[07:15] ---
    Well.
[07:16] ---
    I've got work, so...
[07:19] ---
    Okay. Do your best!
[07:21] ---
    Hey!
[07:22] ---
    Hey!
[07:24] ---
    That must be difficult,
    right after practice.
[07:26] ---
    But at least she seems to be having fun.
[07:29] ---
    "Are you free right now?"
[07:31] ---
    "Don't tell Kanon-chan"
[07:33] ---
    "Meet up at the takoyaki place"
[07:35] ---
    What's wrong?
[07:36] ---
    N-Nothing at all!
[07:39] ---
    Bye, now.
[07:41] ---
    Farewell!
[07:42] ---
    Goodbye!
[07:45] ---
    So what did you want to talk about?
[07:48] ---
    And you wanting to keep it a secret
    from Kanon is pretty unexpected.
[07:52] ---
    Yeah...
[07:54] ---
    This must be about your grade school.
[07:57] ---
    She fainted?
[07:58] ---
    Yeah. That was the first incident
    where Kanon-chan couldn't sing.
[08:03] ---
    I see. So you're worried that might
    happen again if she stands on that stage?
[08:08] ---
    I think she'll be okay, but...
[08:11] ---
    Yes! Kanon was able to
    sing on stage with me.
[08:15] ---
    She's been able to sing ever since!
[08:18] ---
    Actually, she's been rather
    proactive about singing.
[08:22] ---
    Yeah.
[08:23] ---
    I know that, but it's just...
[08:30] ---
    Kanon-chan can be
    really sensitive at times.
[08:38] ---
    But you know, if that's all it takes
    for her to not be able to sing,
[08:42] ---
    she probably won't be able to
    sing at the Love Live.
[08:45] ---
    I hate that I'm agreeing with you,
    but Sumire is right.
[08:49] ---
    Yeah.
[08:50] ---
    Then why don't we all
    go there together before?
[08:54] ---
    We can see how Kanon-san reacts.
[08:58] ---
    Go there before...
[09:01] ---
    Thank you so much for dropping by.
[09:04] ---
    Well, we live close by.
[09:06] ---
    School idols, was it? So many
    of our students love them.
[09:12] ---
    Really?
[09:13] ---
    That makes me so happy.
[09:16] ---
    This takes me back! This was the classroom
    Kanon-chan and I were in!
[09:20] ---
    The desks are so tiny.
[09:22] ---
    I guess we were this small
    in grade school.
[09:26] ---
    You would always dance here, Chi-chan.
[09:29] ---
    And you would always
    sing here, Kanon-chan.
[09:31] ---
    Did I?
[09:34] ---
    "Choral Competition"
    "Let's win this!!"
[09:37] ---
    Let's go.
[09:39] ---
    Yeah.
[09:40] ---
    You'll be singing onstage
    at this auditorium the day of.
[09:44] ---
    It's bigger than I thought...
[09:46] ---
    Of course, it is!
    All of the students will be here!
[09:52] ---
    Kanon-chan.
[09:54] ---
    Want to try standing on the stage?
[09:59] ---
    This is...
[10:17] ---
    Kanon-chan, try singing a little.
[10:20] ---
    It's just practice. We should do that
    even a little since we're here.
[10:26] ---
    Right...
[10:35] ---
    Sorry, give me a second.
[10:41] ---
    Kanon...
[10:45] ---
    Chi-chan.
[10:54] ---
    Everyone...
[11:13] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[11:16] ---
    One, two, three, four...
[11:18] ---
    Sumire-chan, you're too fast.
[11:19] ---
    I know.
[11:20] ---
    Ren-chan, you're holding back too much.
[11:21] ---
    Understood.
[11:22] ---
    Okay!
[11:25] ---
    This choreography is pretty hard.
[11:28] ---
    We're going to be performing
    at the Tokyo tournament.
[11:30] ---
    I put my all into this choreography,
    so we won't be outdone.
[11:34] ---
    Do you think we'll win?
[11:35] ---
    I think we totally can, with all of us!
[11:39] ---
    There's trouble!
[11:41] ---
    Hey, we started practice already.
[11:43] ---
    The theme for the Tokyo tournament
    has been announced!
[11:46] ---
    Theme?
[11:48] ---
    The theme for
    the Tokyo tournament is this!
[11:50] ---
    Solos!
[11:50] ---
    "Tokyo Tournament Theme"
    "Vocal Solos"
[11:52] ---
    Make sure your song has a solo part!
[11:56] ---
    Another difficult assignment.
[11:58] ---
    Meaning pure vocal talent
    will be expected.
[12:01] ---
    Yeah.
[12:02] ---
    Stare...
[12:10] ---
    No one's going to argue here.
[12:13] ---
    What?
[12:14] ---
    I guess it'll be up to Kanon-san.
[12:16] ---
    I would've stepped in
    if it was a different assignment.
[12:20] ---
    But...
[12:22] ---
    The reason Liella! is here is because
    you sang back then, Kanon-chan.
[12:26] ---
    Because you responded
    to Keke-chan's feelings.
[12:29] ---
    Chi-chan...
[12:31] ---
    There's no one else.
[12:39] ---
    This is wonderful. Kanon was able to sing,
    and if the assignment is a solo,
[12:44] ---
    we can let her talent shine!
[12:46] ---
    Yeah...
[12:48] ---
    Is something wrong?
[12:53] ---
    What...
[12:55] ---
    I guess I put too much
    mochi in it. My bad.
[12:58] ---
    No problem. It's all the same
    when I eat it.
[13:01] ---
    Sorry.
[13:06] ---
    It tastes good, though!
[13:11] ---
    This isn't okay!
    We can't leave things like this.
[13:16] ---
    Because we were there?
[13:18] ---
    Yeah. I think Kanon-chan was able to sing
    because we were all there.
[13:24] ---
    Really?
[13:26] ---
    Did Kanon-chan say something to you
    when you two performed?
[13:30] ---
    I think, "I can sing...
    because I'm not alone!"
[13:35] ---
    I knew it.
[13:36] ---
    Then...
[13:37] ---
    All of our performances since then
    and the other day at the school, too.
[13:41] ---
    It's because we were all there.
[13:44] ---
    I think she was able to sing
    because she didn't feel alone.
[13:49] ---
    Is that a bad thing?
[13:52] ---
    I think it's lovely being able to sing
    because you have friends.
[13:56] ---
    I thought that, too. But...
[14:00] ---
    Does that mean she can really sing though?
[14:04] ---
    Maybe her anxiety really won't go away...
[14:10] ---
    This is a difficult situation.
[14:12] ---
    I mean, I get what you're saying...
    So now what?
[14:16] ---
    Yeah, we might get turned down, but...
[14:20] ---
    Director!
[14:22] ---
    This may sound like
    a slightly personal request...
[14:26] ---
    Huh? You do?
[14:28] ---
    Yeah, my family told me I have to be there
    no matter what that day.
[14:33] ---
    I see.
[14:34] ---
    I also have something very important
    that I must attend to.
[14:38] ---
    As do I...
[14:40] ---
    My family also insisted that
    I help out at the shrine that day.
[14:44] ---
    What? Wait, wait. Hang on!
[14:46] ---
    Then it's not going to be Liella! anymore.
    It's just going to be me?
[14:50] ---
    You've got a point.
[14:52] ---
    Yeah, so we contacted our grade school,
[14:55] ---
    and they were hoping you could
    still do it, Kanon-chan.
[14:59] ---
    Actually, the kids at the school
    really want to hear you sing.
[15:04] ---
    But...
[15:05] ---
    Is that a no?
[15:12] ---
    See you...
[15:13] ---
    If anything comes up, just call.
    I'll be there to support you.
[15:16] ---
    I will also be waiting around the clock!
[15:20] ---
    Thanks. I guess I'll go home and practice.
[15:24] ---
    Hey!
[15:27] ---
    This is mean.
    I feel really bad about this.
[15:31] ---
    Yeah.
[15:32] ---
    You've been friends
    since you were little, haven't you?
[15:34] ---
    You've definitely got a point, but yeah...
[15:38] ---
    You see.
[15:40] ---
    I thought I couldn't do anything
    when I was little.
[15:45] ---
    I thought I'd fail at everything
    and gave up.
[15:49] ---
    There's no way you can't do something
    before you even try!
[15:53] ---
    But...
[15:54] ---
    I'll do this with you,
    so let's do our best. Ready, and!
[16:03] ---
    Her smile... Her smile gives me life.
[16:06] ---
    I could relax and be confident. It's a
    smile that truly makes everyone happy.
[16:12] ---
    That's the kind of smile Kanon-chan has.
[16:17] ---
    So if we're able to
    get that Kanon-chan back...
[16:22] ---
    If Kanon-chan is able to
    regain those feelings
[16:27] ---
    after all the hardships
    and failures she faced...
[16:30] ---
    She'll be unstoppable.
[16:32] ---
    Chisato...
[16:33] ---
    I'm not just talking about the Love Live.
[16:35] ---
    We'd be able to be
    the best in the world... no.
[16:38] ---
    The best in the galaxy,
    just like Sumire-chan says.
[16:42] ---
    I... Chisato Arashi, believe in her.
    I believe in Kanon Shibuya!
[16:49] ---
    Aria.
[16:51] ---
    What was I like when I was little?
[16:55] ---
    Where'd that come from?
[16:57] ---
    I just wanted to know suddenly.
[17:02] ---
    You were super passionate,
    loud, and annoying.
[17:04] ---
    You were always telling people they can
    do things if they try or to do their best.
[17:07] ---
    What are you, some hyped-up sportscaster?
[17:10] ---
    Jeez, did you have to go that far?!
[17:12] ---
    But you know... I didn't hate it!
[17:21] ---
    We ended up coming after all.
[17:24] ---
    I was so worried
    that I couldn't sleep a wink.
[17:26] ---
    Hey! She'll see us!
[17:27] ---
    That hurts!
[17:28] ---
    --It does not!
    --Kanon-chan...
[17:34] ---
    I can't see! Move!
[17:36] ---
    Go over there!
[17:40] ---
    Kanon-chan...
[17:42] ---
    Chi-chan...
[17:44] ---
    What's wrong?
[17:46] ---
    Thanks.
[17:48] ---
    I was able to sing because
    I had all of you with me.
[17:51] ---
    I thought that was okay.
[17:53] ---
    But it's not.
[17:57] ---
    In order to support others
    or help them out,
[18:00] ---
    I need to do this on my own,
    just like you did, Chi-chan.
[18:06] ---
    Yeah... But you're not alone.
[18:10] ---
    The Kanon-chan from the past is with you.
[18:15] ---
    The Kanon-chan who wanted her song
    to be heard all around the world.
[18:21] ---
    I...
[18:24] ---
    Hey!
[18:28] ---
    Don't worry!
[18:29] ---
    Singing isn't scary. It's fun!
[18:32] ---
    Singing is so much fun!
[18:36] ---
    We all practiced so hard
    because we love to sing, right?
[18:42] ---
    So let's sing! And have fun!
[18:44] ---
    Yeah!
[18:51] ---
    I'm scared...
[18:53] ---
    I don't know why... but I'm scared.
[19:05] ---
    That's right. I was scared.
    Even back then.
[19:11] ---
    But even then, I...
[19:15] ---
    It's okay. You love to sing, right?
[19:52] ---
    I had always kept
    what I liked the most
[19:56] ---
    Preciously locked away
[20:00] ---
    How can I make it come true?
[20:05] ---
    I didn't know,
    so I couldn't move forward
[20:10] ---
    Then the opportunity had suddenly
[20:13] ---
    Presented itself in front of me
[20:17] ---
    Even though it wasn't
    exactly what I had imagined,
[20:21] ---
    I gently reached out
    with both of my hands
[20:26] ---
    It's that first,
    awkward step that you take
[20:30] ---
    That changes the world
    around you brilliantly
[20:34] ---
    What lies ahead? What can I do?
[20:38] ---
    I'll show some courage
    and move forward
[20:43] ---
    I'm not the small, little me
    that I was yesterday
[20:49] ---
    I started playing my dream
[20:53] ---
    Once the curtain rises,
    what lies beyond is
[20:58] ---
    The stage I always saw in my heart
[21:02] ---
    Even the things I thought
    I'd never be able to do
[21:06] ---
    See? They can come true
    if I take that first step
[21:10] ---
    I'm going to let this
    sparkling hope resonate
[21:15] ---
    Now spread to the ends of
    the earth, my symphony
[21:35] ---
    Kanon-chan...
[21:36] ---
    Hey, whoa!
[21:39] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[21:42] ---
    Chi-chan!
[21:52] ---
    I really think we have
    a chance of winning.
[21:56] ---
    We're going to win at the Love Live!
[21:58] ---
    Of course, we are!
[22:01] ---
    Because Liella! is the best.
[22:04] ---
    Nice to meet you all. We're Liella!
[22:10] ---
    Please listen to our song!
[22:15] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:18] ---
    Like the wind
[22:21] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:29] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:32] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:35] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:39] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:43] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:47] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:50] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:53] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[22:58] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:02] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:05] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:12] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:20] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:27] ---
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
[23:37] ---
    Next time, "Song for All."

[00:01] ---
    You can't stop real dreams
[00:07] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[00:12] ---
    "Love Live! Superstar!!"
[00:29] ---
    Before we knew it,
    we found something that we loved
[00:33] ---
    Let these feelings reach you
[00:37] ---
    We've made up our minds, we're serious!
[00:40] ---
    I wonder what we can do
[00:42] ---
    The sky's so bright
[00:44] ---
    Let's look up at it
    and sing our hearts out
[00:50] ---
    Doesn't having something you want to do
[00:54] ---
    Make every day fun?
[00:56] ---
    Do you feel that way, too?
[01:02] ---
    Ah, we've been waiting for this moment
[01:04] ---
    This encounter is where we start
[01:07] ---
    Our dreams are drawn together,
    and it all begins
[01:12] ---
    We realized our true desires and now,
    we can't be stopped
[01:18] ---
    Our hearts are about to start running
[01:23] ---
    As fast as they can run
[01:31] ---
    One, two, three, four...
    Keke-chan, stop breathing so hard.
[01:34] ---
    Okay!
[01:35] ---
    Sumire-chan, your stopping point
    is just a smidge off.
[01:37] ---
    What?! No way.
[01:40] ---
    Okay, good work! That's it for today!
[01:44] ---
    Huh?
[01:45] ---
    You are way too intense!
[01:47] ---
    Whoopsies, was I too hardcore?
[01:50] ---
    I can't move my legs!
[01:53] ---
    I'm not done yet!
[01:55] ---
    We're looking good. This is great!
[01:59] ---
    Let's go for another run
    while we're at it!
[02:02] ---
    You are trying way too hard.
[02:05] ---
    Well, the Tokyo tournament is soon!
[02:09] ---
    I was just thinking how fun it is
    that we keep getting better
[02:12] ---
    the harder we try.
[02:17] ---
    Okay, let's go!
[02:18] ---
    Seriously?!
[02:19] ---
    The outer gardens again?
[02:20] ---
    Let's do about five sets.
[02:22] ---
    What?!
[02:23] ---
    --Give us a break!
    --Kanon-san has changed quite a bit.
[02:27] ---
    She seems more positive.
[02:29] ---
    Nah, that's not it.
[02:31] ---
    This is the real Kanon-chan.
[02:34] ---
    The one that I know.
[02:36] ---
    Sorry to interrupt. Hazuki-san,
    the director wants to see you.
[02:41] ---
    Ren-chan,
[02:43] ---
    were you looking up naughty things
    on the computer again?
[02:45] ---
    Absolutely not! Please forget
    about that incident!
[02:47] ---
    It's fine. To each their own, I say.
[02:50] ---
    And I'm saying it's not like that!
[02:52] ---
    Did we get another offer?
[02:55] ---
    I'm not sure.
[02:59] ---
    Look at this.
[03:03] ---
    Isn't it amazing?
    I couldn't believe it either.
[03:07] ---
    But it's all thanks to you girls.
[03:09] ---
    But...
[03:11] ---
    Oh, right. This is from your father.
[03:15] ---
    He said he'd like to donate the necessary
    funds that the school needs.
[03:18] ---
    Make sure you contact him.
[03:21] ---
    Father...
[03:25] ---
    The school got more applicants?
[03:27] ---
    Yes! With that number,
[03:29] ---
    we won't have to worry about
    having an insufficient amount.
[03:32] ---
    Yuigaoka will be able to
    stay open next year and on.
[03:34] ---
    That's great!
[03:36] ---
    I wonder if it's because we did so well
    at the regional prelims.
[03:38] ---
    My rapping must've
    reached everyone's hearts.
[03:42] ---
    Don't get a big head.
    It's because of all of us.
[03:45] ---
    But your rapping was really cool!
[03:48] ---
    Look at how many followers we have!
[03:51] ---
    "Following"
    "Followers"
[03:52] ---
    52,000?!
[03:54] ---
    Galaxy! Because of the song
    where I was the center...
[03:58] ---
    Because of my song where I was center...
[04:01] ---
    But it looks like a lot of people
    became interested in our school
[04:04] ---
    because of our performances.
[04:06] ---
    So the school really is getting
    more applicants because of Liella!
[04:10] ---
    Let's use this momentum
    and go straight for the win!
[04:14] ---
    Did they announce the details
    of the Tokyo tournament?
[04:17] ---
    They'll be announced tonight!
[04:19] ---
    It's finally time for
    the Love Live Tokyo tournament!
[04:22] ---
    And here's the date!
[04:24] ---
    Merry Christmas! Ho, ho, ho!
[04:27] ---
    This time, every group will be performing
    remotely from their school
[04:29] ---
    or associated areas
    and will be streaming live!
[04:31] ---
    We will be presenting that online
    in a relay format.
[04:33] ---
    We'll be battling it out
    in Tokyo on Christmas!
[04:36] ---
    The rules this time are pretty unique.
[04:38] ---
    We'll have to prepare
    our own stage ourselves.
[04:42] ---
    Where should we perform?
[04:44] ---
    If we want somewhere extravagant...
    The Jingu Stadium?
[04:47] ---
    That's where the finals will be held.
[04:49] ---
    Then Gaien Stadium?
[04:51] ---
    No way. Who would we even ask
    to let us use it?
[04:54] ---
    I'll go there in person tomorrow and ask!
[04:56] ---
    Let's not cause any trouble.
[04:58] ---
    It's the Tokyo tournament!
    Why are you so laid back?!
[05:02] ---
    I'm seriously thinking about this.
[05:04] ---
    This is the Tokyo tournament!
[05:06] ---
    I'm sure that each area will be
    performing from somewhere special!
[05:09] ---
    We'll be overshadowed easily
    with a mediocre stage!
[05:15] ---
    Congratulations!
[05:17] ---
    What the?!
[05:18] ---
    You got through the regional prelims?
[05:20] ---
    Jeez! You don't tell us anything!
[05:23] ---
    I didn't think you'd be interested at all.
[05:26] ---
    People at my middle school
    have been talking about you, too.
[05:29] ---
    You sang by yourself
    the other day, didn't you?
[05:32] ---
    That's wonderful!
[05:33] ---
    Thanks.
[05:36] ---
    A remote concert?
[05:38] ---
    Where are you making your stage?
[05:40] ---
    The Gaien Stadium?!
[05:42] ---
    That would be absolutely
    amazing if we could,
[05:45] ---
    but realistically, we're thinking
    about our gymnasium...
[05:50] ---
    This is the Tokyo tournament, right?
[05:52] ---
    Yeah...
[05:53] ---
    This can make or break
    your chance at the finals, right?
[05:55] ---
    Yeah...
[05:56] ---
    And you're choosing our gym?!
[05:58] ---
    You need to want more!
[05:59] ---
    Do you have any intention of winning?
[06:02] ---
    What should we do?
[06:04] ---
    That's why I said that idea's too plain.
[06:07] ---
    But everyone will be on winter break,
[06:09] ---
    so I thought it'd be rough
    if we performed outside.
[06:12] ---
    You're worrying too much.
[06:14] ---
    Liella! basically represents
    our school now.
[06:17] ---
    I think we can be a little selfish.
[06:19] ---
    I really envy you
    and that personality of yours.
[06:22] ---
    What's that supposed to mean?!
[06:24] ---
    Honestly, I'm just happy to be singing...
[06:30] ---
    They said no...
[06:32] ---
    Flop.
[06:33] ---
    Keke-chan?!
[06:34] ---
    Where did you go?
[06:35] ---
    I went to every possible
    live venue I could think of,
[06:39] ---
    but they all said that they
    weren't suited for school idols.
[06:44] ---
    Well, this whole area wasn't
    exactly known for school idols...
[06:49] ---
    We really need to decide soon though.
[06:51] ---
    Yeah, I'll head home
    and think it over tonight.
[06:56] ---
    I'm home.
[06:57] ---
    Welcome home.
[06:59] ---
    Mao-san! Yuuna-san!
[07:01] ---
    Pa!
[07:02] ---
    It's been a while.
[07:03] ---
    We're in town to buy stuff
    for the Tokyo tournament.
[07:06] ---
    So we came by to say hi!
[07:09] ---
    It looks like
[07:10] ---
    you've been practicing really hard
    since the tournament's coming up soon.
[07:13] ---
    Yes! And we got more applicants
    for our school, too.
[07:16] ---
    I'm having so much fun right now!
[07:18] ---
    Pa! And that's most important!
[07:20] ---
    Let's all do our best to
    put on our best performances.
[07:24] ---
    Right!
[07:25] ---
    But...
[07:27] ---
    We're the ones who are gonna win.
[07:29] ---
    We have no intention of losing to you.
[07:32] ---
    W-We're not going to lose either.
[07:37] ---
    I'm sorry! I didn't mean
    to sound so arrogant.
[07:42] ---
    Um...
[07:44] ---
    Meaning?
[07:45] ---
    Yes. Everyone keeps talking about winning
    or how we can go to the nationals then...
[07:51] ---
    But I don't know how to feel about winning
    or losing when it comes to singing.
[07:55] ---
    So you're saying
    you'd be fine if you lost to us?
[07:58] ---
    No! I definitely want to
    perform the best song!
[08:02] ---
    I want to practice hard with everyone
    and put on our best performance!
[08:07] ---
    But I'd been so nervous
    I wouldn't be able to sing for so long,
[08:11] ---
    so just the fact that I can express myself
    freely makes me so happy.
[08:17] ---
    I see.
[08:19] ---
    I get what you're saying. Singing might
    not exactly be about competing.
[08:23] ---
    You can even enjoy it alone.
[08:25] ---
    Right?
[08:27] ---
    Even then...
[08:28] ---
    We can become even better
    by butting heads.
[08:32] ---
    Because of the Love Live,
[08:35] ---
    the level of performances from
    school idols just keeps going up.
[08:39] ---
    I see...
[08:41] ---
    You don't like that?
[08:42] ---
    No! I'm just not mentally there yet.
[08:45] ---
    It's all right. Once you sing
    at the Love Live, you'll realize it.
[08:50] ---
    Why everyone wants to win...
    Or rather, why we have to win.
[09:04] ---
    --Why everyone wants to win...
    --Five, four, three, two, one...
[09:06] ---
    --Five, four, three, two, one...
[09:27] ---
    Why don't we go with stars
    for our theme this time?
[09:30] ---
    Stars?
[09:31] ---
    Yeah, that's what I thought up
    after seeing the city all lit up.
[09:34] ---
    I thought we could turn
    our gym into a starry sky.
[09:39] ---
    That'd be absolutely beautiful!
[09:40] ---
    The Yuigaoka stars.
[09:43] ---
    That's a great idea!
[09:44] ---
    But if that's the case,
    we need to get to work immediately.
[09:48] ---
    Hold up.
[09:50] ---
    Leave the stage to us.
    You girls concentrate on practicing.
[09:55] ---
    But...
[09:56] ---
    If you're not able to sing your best
    because you were busy preparing for this,
[09:59] ---
    we're the ones who'll regret it.
[10:01] ---
    We're all first years, so even if we
    enter competitions for other clubs,
[10:05] ---
    we don't really stand a chance.
[10:07] ---
    And yet, you girls have gotten this far.
[10:10] ---
    You girls are the hope of our school.
[10:13] ---
    So let us cheer you on.
[10:16] ---
    Everyone...
[10:17] ---
    That's so lovely! You're all so lovely!
[10:20] ---
    What are you crying for?
[10:23] ---
    Look who's talking!
[10:25] ---
    Okay, why don't we practice then?
[10:27] ---
    Yeah.
[10:30] ---
    Have fun!
[10:33] ---
    It's so cold!
[10:34] ---
    This is nothing compared to Shanghai.
[10:38] ---
    Chi-chan...
[10:39] ---
    Hm?
[10:41] ---
    I'm glad I went to this school.
[10:45] ---
    I never thought every day would be filled
    with so much excitement and wonder.
[10:50] ---
    Me neither!
[10:52] ---
    Agreed.
[10:56] ---
    "Headed towards the Tokyo tournament!!"
[11:01] ---
    Love Live! Superstar!!
[11:14] ---
    It's 6:20. We're performing tonight.
[11:19] ---
    I've got plenty of time to sleep...
[11:22] ---
    No! I need to wake up! It's so cold!
[11:29] ---
    The first snowfall!
[11:32] ---
    Why did it have to happen
    today of all days?
[11:35] ---
    No slacking, Sis!
[11:38] ---
    I know.
[11:38] ---
    Sumire!
[11:41] ---
    What are you doing here this early?
    We're performing tonight.
[11:47] ---
    I had nowhere else to go, so I came here.
[11:50] ---
    Please hold onto this just for a day.
[11:53] ---
    Isn't that your treasure?
[11:55] ---
    But just for today, we're rivals.
[11:58] ---
    Just for today, I'm going to
    stop being their fan.
[12:01] ---
    Here.
[12:03] ---
    I'm just going to give this to you.
    So that we can continue as a group.
[12:17] ---
    All set.
[12:23] ---
    It's a big circle.
[12:28] ---
    Here you are.
[12:30] ---
    Saya-san, I'm so happy
    I get to live with you again.
[12:33] ---
    Likewise.
[12:35] ---
    You've been working so hard to protect
    the school your mother established.
[12:38] ---
    I'm honored to be able to serve you again.
[12:44] ---
    Morning!
[12:45] ---
    Wow, you're up early.
[12:47] ---
    Can I take breakfast with me to school?
[12:49] ---
    Of course.
[12:50] ---
    Sis!
[12:52] ---
    You forgot your headphones.
[12:56] ---
    I don't need them anymore!
[13:01] ---
    I wonder how the stage is coming along.
[13:03] ---
    I'm not sure.
[13:04] ---
    I can't wait to see it!
[13:05] ---
    No one knows what's going on?
[13:08] ---
    They wanted to surprise us,
    so they asked us to wait until tonight.
[13:10] ---
    They said they'd come get us
    when it's done.
[13:12] ---
    Maybe we should help them out.
[13:14] ---
    Agreed.
[13:15] ---
    Well, considering this snow,
    let's think of our health first,
[13:18] ---
    and wrap practice up early.
[13:20] ---
    Then let's just go through
    our choreography once
[13:23] ---
    and then go help them out.
[13:24] ---
    That's a good idea.
[13:34] ---
    Huh?
[13:36] ---
    Wait...
[13:37] ---
    What?!
[13:40] ---
    There's no stage!
[13:43] ---
    This is awful. This is the worst.
    How could this happen?
[13:46] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[13:49] ---
    This is just too cruel.
[13:51] ---
    No! We've almost got
    the perfect stage done.
[13:54] ---
    At a place much better than this.
[14:18] ---
    This is...
[14:19] ---
    If you keep going down this path...
[14:22] ---
    Your stage is up ahead.
[14:24] ---
    The best stage that everyone
    at Yuigaoka could've prepared.
[14:34] ---
    You've got this, Liella!
[14:36] ---
    Ren-chan!
[14:37] ---
    Chisato-chan!
[14:39] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[14:40] ---
    Keke-chan!
[14:42] ---
    Kanon-chan!
[14:44] ---
    You've got this!
[14:50] ---
    Go!
[14:51] ---
    Fight!
[14:54] ---
    No need to hurry!
[14:55] ---
    Watch your step!
[15:04] ---
    She's so scary!
[15:05] ---
    Please wait!
[15:09] ---
    It's almost time!
[15:12] ---
    It's shining.
[15:12] ---
    I can almost see it!
[15:31] ---
    Wow...
[15:33] ---
    Everyone at school
    decided to ask the town...
[15:36] ---
    And they said we could use this area
    freely for the time being.
[15:40] ---
    We can sing here?
[15:42] ---
    Yup. People around town helped out, too.
[15:45] ---
    This is a stage that
    only we could've created.
[15:49] ---
    Now, show us. Show us the best
    performance Liella! can put on.
[15:57] ---
    Right!
[16:06] ---
    It's nice to meet you, everyone!
[16:08] ---
    We're the school idols from
    Yuigaoka Girls' High School.
[16:12] ---
    We're Liella!
[16:15] ---
    Standing on this stage right now
    and seeing this scenery,
[16:19] ---
    I can say this proudly...
[16:21] ---
    I'm so glad to be a student at Yuigaoka.
[16:25] ---
    That our school is the best!
[16:29] ---
    Please listen to our song!
[16:39] ---
    I feel a tiny flickering
    deep inside my heart again
[16:45] ---
    My aspirations run wild,
    wanting me to make them come true
[16:51] ---
    We rushed out and we can do anything
[16:56] ---
    Because of all of this courage
    we gained from our encounter
[17:02] ---
    It started with you
[17:05] ---
    But next time I will
[17:08] ---
    Create a clear and bright future
[17:13] ---
    We'll keep on running forever
[17:18] ---
    Looking for Light
[17:19] ---
    Our story is just beginning
[17:25] ---
    It can create any kind of miracle
[17:29] ---
    Sparkly dreams scatter
    and fall across the sky
[17:35] ---
    Let's gather up each and every one
[17:40] ---
    And make them all come true
[17:55] ---
    Whenever you feel like
    your faith wavers
[18:01] ---
    Let's express our feelings
    by putting them into a song
[18:07] ---
    I'm going to save my tears
    for my happiest days
[18:12] ---
    That's what I decided
[18:20] ---
    Looking for Light
[18:21] ---
    Our story is just beginning
[18:27] ---
    It can create any kind of miracle
[18:32] ---
    Sparkly dreams scatter
    and fall across the sky
[18:38] ---
    Let's gather up each and every one
[18:42] ---
    And make them all come true
[18:46] ---
    I'm going to create
[18:49] ---
    This glimmer with you forever
[19:31] ---
    Congratulations! The group who will be
    representing Tokyo at the nationals is
[19:37] ---
    Sunny Passion!
[19:42] ---
    Ugh! What the heck!
    No, really! What the heck?
[19:50] ---
    Kanon-chan.
[19:53] ---
    We didn't make it. I'm sorry.
[19:55] ---
    No... Thank you. That was
    the best performance ever.
[19:59] ---
    I was so proud and moved!
[20:03] ---
    Sorry we couldn't help you win.
[20:07] ---
    Hey, we have to get this cleaned up.
[20:10] ---
    Right...
[20:11] ---
    We have to thank everyone in town, too.
[20:17] ---
    Kanon-san, let's go.
[20:19] ---
    We should go clean up.
[20:22] ---
    Right... So that's what they meant.
[20:26] ---
    Kanon-chan?
[20:28] ---
    Chi-chan.
[20:31] ---
    This... sucks.
[20:35] ---
    Everyone did so much to help us out,
    and we couldn't do anything in return.
[20:41] ---
    Everyone did so much to help us out...
[20:44] ---
    ...and it's all over without
    being able to repay them!
[20:48] ---
    Kanon...
[20:49] ---
    We can all try again and give it our all.
[20:51] ---
    Yes.
[20:54] ---
    I want to win.
[20:58] ---
    I really want to win!
[21:01] ---
    I want to win and
    make everyone here smile.
[21:04] ---
    I want to happily say,
    "We did it!" with everyone!
[21:07] ---
    With our song. With Liella!'s song...
[21:11] ---
    With Yuigaoka's song...
    That's how I want to win.
[21:14] ---
    No...
[21:18] ---
    We're going to win!
[21:21] ---
    Of course, we are.
[21:23] ---
    Liella!'s not going to stop here.
[21:26] ---
    I knew that from the start.
[21:29] ---
    Yuigaoka is the best school!
[21:35] ---
    Yuigaoka Girls' High School's
    school idols, Liella!
[21:39] ---
    We're going to make sure
    even more people hear our songs!
[21:44] ---
    Song for me! Song for you!
[21:47] ---
    Song for all!
[21:54] ---
    Okay, let's start practice.
[21:56] ---
    Yes.
[21:57] ---
    Think you can keep up with me?
[21:59] ---
    As if, Giant Isopod.
[22:01] ---
    Oh, shut it!
[22:11] ---
    "We can do it!
    Love Live! victory!!"
[22:14] ---
    Okay, here we go!
[22:15] ---
    "victory!!"
[22:17] ---
    Yeah!
[22:19] ---
    
[22:20] ---
    The future is calling to us
[22:21] ---
    
[22:23] ---
    
[22:23] ---
    Like the wind
[22:25] ---
    
[22:26] ---
    No one knows what the future holds for us
[22:34] ---
    Even then, we want to move forward
[22:37] ---
    Because we don't want to have any regrets
[22:40] ---
    You can't hold down our hearts
[22:44] ---
    Let's all be free
[22:48] ---
    We're not going to give up!
[22:52] ---
    Because we decided that
[22:55] ---
    We'll cry, laugh, and do our best
[22:58] ---
    We all want to surpass our limits
[23:03] ---
    It's important to believe
[23:07] ---
    And once we told ourselves that
[23:10] ---
    Let's try to go even further
[23:17] ---
    We may be small, but we have big dreams
[23:25] ---
    We won't give in, now, let's fly together
[23:32] ---**
    Let's fly the best we can,
    now, let's fly together
