    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] ---
    Wait!
[19:25] ---
    Please reach!
[19:28] ---
    Please reach!
[19:35] ---
    Sumire-chan!
[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] ---
    Do Da Da Follow me
[21:31] ---
    Do Da Da Real Live Yeah!
[21:34] ---
    Do Da Da Follow me
[21:35] ---
    Do Da Da Love me do!
[21:38] ---
    Do Da Da Follow me
[21:39] ---
    Do Da Da Real Live Yeah!
[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."
[23:37] ---
    "Episode 11: Once More, at That Place"
