[00:05] ---
    Rena-chan, it's time for breakfast!
[00:10] ---
    We'll see you there!
[00:12] ---
    "If singing vanished from the world,
    I couldn't live on--singing is my life!"
[00:15] ---
    Music hasn't vanished from this world.
[00:19] ---
    So why, then,
[00:21] ---
    did you?
[00:41] ---
    Our eyes are focused
    on the stage we dreamed of
[00:45] ---
    Keep moving forward one step at a time
[00:49] ---
    Anytime, anywhere;
    I knew I could do more
[00:54] ---
    I could fly higher than yesterday
[00:58] ---
    Tears fall down our cheeks,
    we stumble and fall ourselves
[01:02] ---
    Sometimes we even wanted to run away
[01:06] ---
    But hold onto that hope, don't give up
[01:09] ---
    That's right, it all starts here
[01:13] ---
    Going! One day, I'll fly
[01:15] ---
    Going! anywhere I want
[01:18] ---
    Going! We always believed in this path
[01:21] ---
    So we'll keep going down it,
    no matter what happens
[01:29] ---
    Going! I'm sure our dream will come true
[01:32] ---
    Going! So never stop
[01:34] ---
    Going! chasing after that dream
[01:38] ---
    It's our promise,
    so let's reach that wonderful place
[01:44] ---
    We're meant to shine up there
[01:51] ---
    Our glorious days!
[01:56] ---
    That looks so good!
[01:58] ---
    Hello, girls. I'm the owner
    of this little villa. The name's Sunny.
[02:02] ---
    I'll be cooking all your meals
    from now until the end of the show.
[02:07] ---
    It's great to meet you all.
[02:09] ---
    It's nice to meet you, too!
[02:11] ---
    My, how polite. Go ahead and dig in.
[02:14] ---
    Thank you, ma'am!
[02:16] ---
    Oh, hey, why don't we all take
    a second to introduce ourselves?
[02:20] ---
    Yeah, great idea!
[02:22] ---
    I'm Hiromi Hamaguri,
    and I'm a 10th-grader from Osaka!
[02:25] ---
    Just call me Hiromi, m'kay? Thanks!
[02:29] ---
    I'm Mako Toma. I'm in
    11th grade and live in Fukuoka.
[02:33] ---
    Nice to meet you.
[02:35] ---
    I'm Suzune Miyama,
    a 9th-grader from Saitama!
[02:39] ---
    Who's next... Okay!
[02:42] ---
    You can read my profile on the app.
[02:45] ---
    Look, I'm not about to treat this
    like a vacation or some club trip.
[02:50] ---
    We're all rivals here.
[02:52] ---
    There's no rule against
    rivals being friends, though.
[02:58] ---
    Yeah, I know.
[03:00] ---
    I'm Rena Hananoi from South Kanto.
    I'm in 9th grade.
[03:06] ---
    I'm Nodoka Yagi from Hokkaido!
    I'm also in 9th grade!
[03:13] ---
    Sorry, I'm still not dressed
    'cause I slept too late...
[03:16] ---
    I'm Nagisa Imau. I'm from Kouchi
    and am also in 9th grade.
[03:20] ---
    You're up, Ao-chan.
[03:21] ---
    Huh?! Yes, ma'am!
[03:25] ---
    I'm Ao Yodogawa from Hiroshima!
    I'm in 8th grade!
[03:30] ---
    You didn't have to stand up.
[03:32] ---
    Sure, but you're all older than me!
[03:35] ---
    Track club says I have
    to be polite to my senpais!
[03:37] ---
    We're not your senpais, though.
[03:41] ---
    I'm Uta Koizumi from Miyaji.
[03:44] ---
    I'm in 6th grade, and I've been
    acting since I was a toddler.
[03:48] ---
    She's the real senpai.
[03:49] ---
    Yeah.
[03:50] ---
    Oh, yeah! I've seen you in
    Young Detective Chii-tan! You're so good!
[03:56] ---
    I mean, I am a professional actor.
[04:01] ---
    I'm Shiori Yamaga, and I'm
    in 9th grade. I'm from Aichi.
[04:05] ---
    It's very nice to meet you all.
[04:10] ---
    Okay, girls, listen up, now.
    You can eat while I talk.
[04:15] ---
    Your daily schedule will
    be posted here every morning,
[04:17] ---
    "9 AM: Event Shoot @ Studio,
    11 AM: Meeting Shoot @ TBD"
    so make sure you check it
    when you wake up.
[04:21] ---
    Aw, yeah, we're really
    getting started now, huh?
[04:25] ---
    This is really nerve-wracking.
[04:27] ---
    Oh, jeez, I need to get
    better at waking up...
[04:30] ---
    That should be the least of your concerns.
[04:33] ---
    Yeah.
[04:34] ---
    There's something far more important.
[04:36] ---
    What's our next audition going to be like?
[04:46] ---
    This studio is so cool!
[04:47] ---
    We're going live!
[04:49] ---
    In five, four, three, two...
[04:55] ---
    Welcome, one and all, to the
    idol audition reality show,
[04:59] ---
    Selection Project, the final round!
[05:04] ---
    It's Sumipanda, in the flesh!
[05:05] ---
    I've only seen her on TV before!
[05:07] ---
    She looks kinda different, though?
[05:11] ---
    Over the next month of summer break,
[05:14] ---
    we're going to find out which
    of these girls are built for stardom!
[05:18] ---
    So give it your all and
    don't have any hard feelings!
[05:21] ---
    And we can't go forgetting
    about our cameras!
[05:26] ---
    They're focused on every aspect
    of your day-to-day lives!
[05:29] ---
    Who knows when and where
    they'll be recording?
[05:35] ---
    Who knows, one off-hand remark
    could affect your final results!
[05:41] ---
    Don't assume the only place
    you have to sparkle is on the stage!
[05:47] ---
    Okay, girls, look over here!
[05:49] ---
    "Dancing"
    "Singing "Band Instruments"
    We've got three cards
    here for each of you.
[05:53] ---
    You'll come up on stage and
    pick the card that's right for you!
[06:01] ---
    This choice will impact your
    results for the rest of the round,
[06:05] ---
    so pick very carefully, mmkay?
[06:09] ---
    Okay, let's get going and
    see what you've all picked!
[06:14] ---
    Put 'em up!
[06:17] ---
    "Band Instruments"
[06:19] ---
    "Dancing" "Dancing" "Band Instruments"
[06:20] ---
    "Dancing" "Band Instruments"
    "Band Instruments"
[06:22] ---
    "Singing" "Dancing" "Singing" "Dancing"
[06:25] ---
    Huh?
[06:27] ---
    What's this all mean? Well, let me
    announce the name of our first round!
[06:32] ---
    "The Group Round!!"
    The Group Round!
[06:34] ---
    A group round?
[06:35] ---
    Here are your rules:
[06:37] ---
    Each group will form an idol unit
[06:39] ---
    and create a performance
    matching their card.
[06:43] ---
    They'll pick a song to cover from
    one of our previous Selection idols.
[06:48] ---
    They'll also pick a unit name!
[06:50] ---
    After that, each team will rehearse
    their song and perform on stage,
[06:52] ---
    and that performance will be
    streamed live to the whole country!
[06:55] ---
    If their team breaks 100,000 yells,
    then they make it through the round!
[07:01] ---
    If they don't,
    then they'll be disqualified.
[07:05] ---
    You hear that? Their fates are
    in your cheers, lovely viewers!
[07:10] ---
    Let's get this show on the road,
    and get some results in black and white!
[07:16] ---
    Okay! Let's start with our unit name!
[07:19] ---
    We're focused on dance, so our name
    should be like, a dance group name.
[07:23] ---
    Dance.
[07:24] ---
    And we've got four people, yeah?
[07:27] ---
    What's the word for a
    four-person group? Carpaccio?
[07:31] ---
    --Car what?
    --A quartet.
[07:36] ---
    A group of four...
[07:38] ---
    Maybe we should focus on
    what kind of dance we're going to do,
[07:43] ---
    and then pick out a name that suits it?
[07:49] ---
    Well, first, let's figure out
    which instruments we'll play.
[07:54] ---
    I'll play guitar.
[07:56] ---
    I pick bass. It's most important.
[07:58] ---
    Wow, glad we split on that so easy.
[08:02] ---
    I'll handle the drums.
[08:04] ---
    We should make a list of all
    the Selection songs to pick from.
[08:09] ---
    What about our unit name?
[08:11] ---
    What's special about our group...
[08:14] ---
    We have the youngest member, Uta-chan.
[08:18] ---
    Uta-chan?
[08:19] ---
    Oh, sorry, we're not that close yet, huh?
[08:22] ---
    What would you like me to call you?
[08:30] ---
    This is so unfair.
[08:32] ---
    Uh, should we start with
    a unit name? How's that sound?
[08:38] ---
    Why the hell do I have
    to team up with you?
[08:41] ---
    Let's work together and do our best!
[08:43] ---
    Which one of us needs to "do their best"?
[08:45] ---
    Uh, me?
[08:49] ---
    If you mess up again, like you
    did before, I'll be seriously pissed.
[08:53] ---
    I won't mess up like that again, I'm sure!
[08:56] ---
    I don't trust people who are
    that sure of themselves.
[09:00] ---
    Then, probably!
[09:02] ---
    You'd better be damn sure
    you don't mess up!
[09:04] ---
    So should I be sure?
[09:06] ---
    Forget it!
[09:11] ---
    Ugh, I can't stand to watch
    the two of you like this!
[09:14] ---
    How much longer are you going to bicker?
    You want us to put this on TV?
[09:19] ---
    At this rate, you're gonna be waving
    "buh-bye" to everyone after round one!
[09:23] ---
    I understand,
[09:24] ---
    but this isn't going to be that easy.
[09:28] ---
    Huh?!
[09:34] ---
    Everyone's already rehearsing?!
[09:37] ---
    Well, duh. We've only got
    ten days till we perform.
[09:43] ---
    Master is hella good at guitar!
[09:46] ---
    I'm just okay. Mistress' bass
    skills weren't bad, either.
[09:50] ---
    Of course they weren't.
[09:51] ---
    But the biggest surprise was Mommy.
[09:53] ---
    I never imagined you could
    shred on the drums like that.
[09:56] ---
    And they've all got nicknames!
    They're way ahead of us!
[10:04] ---
    Rena-chan, we gotta work hard, too!
    We're teammates, after all!
[10:10] ---
    We're not teammates. We're rivals.
[10:13] ---
    This again?
[10:15] ---
    Auditions are cutthroat.
    We'll undermine our rivals to win.
[10:19] ---
    Sure, but we're on a team this round.
    If we lose, we're out.
[10:24] ---
    You don't need to tell me that.
    I already know.
[10:30] ---
    You've barely touched your food!
[10:33] ---
    I'm not hungry.
[10:34] ---
    That's not okay!
    At least eat half of it, c'mon!
[10:39] ---
    Your parents are counting on me
    to take good care of you.
[10:43] ---
    So part of my job is making sure
    you're kept in tip-top health!
[10:48] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am.
[10:49] ---
    She's right! Don't let this
    great food go to waste, eat up!
[10:55] ---
    That's way too much food, Nodoka-chan!
[11:01] ---
    Something's gotta change...
[11:04] ---
    Huh?! Fifty thousand?
[11:08] ---
    Whoa, you already have that many Yells?!
[11:10] ---
    That's halfway to the goal!
[11:15] ---
    How are we so much higher than you guys?
[11:20] ---
    Why is Miyama-san and Hananoi-san's
    team doing far better than us?
[11:24] ---
    Is it their looks? Is it just
    'cause they're hotter?!
[11:27] ---
    That's ridiculous. I mean, look at me.
[11:31] ---
    Well, damn, Shiori.
[11:33] ---
    Hiro-chan, Shio-chan, I think I know why!
[11:37] ---
    They haven't even uploaded
    any videos of us yet...
[11:44] ---
    Could you knock next time?
[11:46] ---
    Sorry. Suzune, are you guys doing okay?
[11:50] ---
    Huh?
[11:51] ---
    Wait, do you not know yet?
[11:53] ---
    Rena-chan's all over SEPIS right now.
[11:55] ---
    "SELECTION Contestant Rena Hananoi
    Younger Sister of Akari Amasawa"
    Rena-chan's all over SEPIS right now.
[11:57] ---
    "SELECTION Contestant Rena Hananoi
    Younger Sister of Akari Amasawa"
    Huh?
[11:59] ---
    "Akari Hananoi"
    "Holy crap!"
[12:09] ---
    And now, for the winner
    of our inaugural Selection...
[12:12] ---
    Our winner, the one, the only...
[12:16] ---
    Entry number 4! Akari Amasawa!
[12:21] ---
    Akari!
[12:28] ---
    Hey, sis, could you help me
    with this kanji homework?
[12:41] ---
    I'm back!
[12:42] ---
    There you are.
[12:44] ---
    You're home early today.
[12:46] ---
    Yeah, recording went really well.
[12:49] ---
    Ugh, I'm so thirsty.
[12:55] ---
    Hey, Rena. I heard you got a perfect
    score on your kanji test yesterday!
[12:59] ---
    Huh?
[13:00] ---
    Way to go, Rena!
[13:19] ---
    "Akari Amasawa Dead at 18 in Car Crash"
[13:42] ---
    Sorry, I just had to come talk
    to you about what's going on.
[13:47] ---
    What?
[13:48] ---
    I know who your sister is now.
[13:51] ---
    Yeah, it's all over the internet.
[13:54] ---
    It's true. Akari Amasawa's my sister.
[13:57] ---
    I had no idea.
[14:00] ---
    Why didn't you tell anyone?
[14:02] ---
    Because I wanted to win
    this thing on my own.
[14:06] ---
    I don't want anyone to force
    their expectations on me.
[14:11] ---
    But I'm honestly kind of upset.
[14:14] ---
    The second people found out
    I was her little sister,
[14:16] ---
    our Yell count skyrocketed.
[14:19] ---
    But not because of anything I did.
    It's all because of her.
[14:24] ---
    That's not really a surprise.
    Akari-chan was huge.
[14:30] ---
    She put in all that effort alone.
[14:33] ---
    She fought alone...
[14:37] ---
    ...she suffered alone...
[14:40] ---
    We lived in the same house,
    but I didn't know anything about her.
[14:44] ---
    I didn't know how she felt
    up on that stage.
[14:48] ---
    But I wanted to know, so badly.
[14:50] ---
    That's why I'm not going to lose here.
[14:53] ---
    I'm going to stand on
    the same stage she did.
[15:04] ---
    The only reason I'm here
    is because of Akari-chan.
[15:08] ---
    Her songs fill me with courage.
    She saved my life.
[15:15] ---
    She made me want to
    sing and dance, just like her.
[15:23] ---
    So I'm not going to lose here, either!
[15:31] ---
    Well, all right.
[15:36] ---
    I'm sure as hell not losin' here!
[15:39] ---
    Why's Hiromi-senpai so mad?
[15:41] ---
    I think she's feeling competitive
    after learning about Rena-chan!
[15:45] ---
    She's Akari Amasawa's sister!
    She's like, on another level!
[15:49] ---
    Sure, but that's how she's so good.
    I'm kind of jealous of her.
[15:54] ---
    We'd better bust our butts
    and get those Yells!
[15:58] ---
    Today, let's figure out
    who's going to sing.
[16:02] ---
    I wanna sing.
[16:04] ---
    Please, have you heard me sing?
[16:07] ---
    I know way more about it than you do!
[16:09] ---
    I'm going to sing.
[16:12] ---
    No, I'm singing!
[16:13] ---
    Nuh-uh!
[16:14] ---
    Why don't we all sing?
[16:25] ---
    Okay, that was great.
[16:27] ---
    Thank you very much!
[16:32] ---
    It's time to practice,
    but Rena's not here.
[16:35] ---
    Are the two of you still in that rut?
[16:38] ---
    Maybe she thinks practice is later.
    I'll go look for her!
[16:45] ---
    Rena-chan!
[16:46] ---
    It took some time for me
    to choose some songs to pick from.
[16:51] ---
    "Group Round Picks"
    I thought we could do
    an Akari Amasawa song.
[16:54] ---
    "Group Round Picks"
    Really?
[16:56] ---
    Do you not want to?
[16:58] ---
    Well, actually...
[16:59] ---
    "Group Round Picks"
[17:02] ---
    Glad we're on the same page.
[17:06] ---
    For our unit name, I figured, since
    both of us will be singing solos,
[17:09] ---
    we could go with
    "separate but together" as our theme.
[17:13] ---
    Separate, but together...
[17:15] ---
    And one last thing: I don't want
    you to forget that we're rivals.
[17:23] ---
    You got it.
[17:33] ---
    Nagisa-chan?
[17:34] ---
    Are you and Rena okay now, Suzu-chan?
[17:37] ---
    It doesn't look like things
    are going that well for you...
[17:40] ---
    It's okay now.
    Rena-chan's my rival, that's all.
[17:47] ---
    You sure you're gonna be okay?
[17:50] ---
    A surprise performance?!
[17:52] ---
    They're gonna stream it live right now!
[17:55] ---
    But we've got tons of time
    until the last day!
[17:58] ---
    Excuse me, could you check over this?
[18:01] ---
    Are they seriously doing this?
[18:03] ---
    --Right? If they screw this up,
    they might lose Yells.
    --Suzune-san on mark one,
    Rena-san on mark two, please!
[18:09] ---
    But I love their outfits.
[18:14] ---
    Okay, let's do a full run-through!
[18:16] ---
    --That won't be necessary.
    --What?
[18:19] ---
    Wait, shouldn't you
    rehearse at least once?!
[18:22] ---
    We've practiced this a bunch!
    We'll be fine!
[18:25] ---
    But you've got to rehearse together!
[18:28] ---
    It's fine. We're rivals, after all.
[18:41] ---
    Going in five!
[18:43] ---
    Four! Three! Two!
[19:00] ---

    ♬ Still a chrysalis, but nevertheless ♬
[19:28] ---

[19:36] ---
    --They're in perfect sync!

[20:00] ---
    ♬ I've chased after my precious world ♬
[20:03] ---
    ♬ And I'll captivate it now,
    Butterfly Bright ♬
[20:08] ---
    ♬ Even my tears will light my way ♬
[20:13] ---
    ♬ The scales that color me now ♬
[20:18] ---
    ♬ Layer upon one another to glow ♬
[20:23] ---
    ♬ To shine a light on someone else ♬
[20:31] ---
    ♬ Now set me free,
    This is my stage ♬
[20:34] ---
    ♬ Once I start beating
    my sparkling butterfly wings ♬
[20:37] ---
    ♬ There's no stopping me from flying ♬
[20:42] ---
    ♬ As long as I live,
    I'll keep singing out to you ♬
[20:47] ---
    ♬ I've chased after my precious world ♬
[20:50] ---
    ♬ And I'll captivate it now,
    Butterfly Bright ♬
[21:00] ---
    Okay, that's a wrap!
[21:12] ---
    Rena-chan!
[21:20] ---
    At least you didn't fall
    while we were live.
[21:28] ---
    I was so worried!
[21:34] ---
    One day, even on the days
    when it's raining hard
[21:41] ---
    I hear a voice calling me
[21:44] ---
    You were always by my side,
    no matter what
[21:49] ---
    To keep me focused forward
    and moving ahead
[21:55] ---
    If I get to stand on the
    stage of my dreams one day
[22:01] ---
    I know when I'm up there
[22:06] ---
    I'll think of your face
[22:10] ---
    Let my song, let my voice connect
    with those precious memories
[22:17] ---
    I never realized how much
    they'd supported me
[22:21] ---
    Let my song, let my voice ring out
    far across the distance
[22:27] ---
    Every last one of these warm emotions
[22:32] ---
    Your feelings will give me hope
[22:37] ---
    For my dreams to come true,
    I need Only One Yell!
[22:56] ---
    No way! They've topped 100,000!
[22:59] ---
    Wait, that means...
[23:01] ---
    They've made it through the round!
[23:03] ---
    Already?!
[23:04] ---
    Well, that can't be good for you!
[23:08] ---
    There's a certain
    Selection curse, you see.
[23:11] ---
    A curse?
[23:13] ---
    What the heck?
[23:14] ---
    We've never had a show where every
    single girl made it past the first round!
[23:19] ---
    So that means someone's
    definitely gonna lose, huh?
[23:24] ---
    And since this is a team round...
[23:27] ---
    It'll either be you!
[23:29] ---
    Or you!
[23:32] ---
    Your fate'll be in black
    and white soon enough!
