[00:02] Hoshitani
    Please let us perform in
    Opening Ceremony, as well.
[00:09] Hoshitani
    We want to perform on stage
    all together as a company.
[00:24] Fuyusawa
    Permission denied.
[00:26] Fuyusawa
    The participants were collectively
    decided on by the Kao Council.
[00:30] Fuyusawa
    There will be no changes.
[00:33] Fuyusawa
    Team Hiragi, continue with
    your individual practice.
[00:36] Fuyusawa
    All those not involved need to leave.
[00:39] Hoshitani
    Even so,
[00:41] Hoshitani
    we...
[00:44] Hoshitani
    won't give up!
SIGN    Starmyu - High School Star Musical
SIGN    Act 3
[02:19] Kuga
    Seriously?
[02:20] Tengenji
    I can't believe you said something
    as brash as that to our senpai.
[02:25] Hoshitani
    I really messed up, didn't I?
[02:27] Tsukigami
    Your heart was in the right place, at least.
[02:32] Tsukigami
    But as it stands, our class
    has a weak relationship
[02:34] Tsukigami
    with the current Kao Council.
[02:36] Tsukigami
    So when a second-year student
    they barely know bursts into
[02:40] Tsukigami
    their practice space and
    makes an absurd request...
[02:42] Kuga
    You made yourself a target.
[02:44] Nayuki
    What should we do?
[02:46] Nanjo
    Well, what's done is done.
[02:48] Nanjo
    And you had Ren and Ageha with you, too.
[02:51] Kitahara
    What's that supposed to mean?
[02:53] Nanjo
    There's no way you two could back
    up pure-hearted Hoshitani here.
[02:56] Nanjo
    Because you two are as
    pure-hearted as he is.
[03:00] Hachiya
    A-Ageha...
[03:05] Chiaki
    Man, that second-year sure
    said something pretty gutsy.
[03:10] Fuyusawa
    He has no awareness of his inexperience.
[03:13] Fuyusawa
    That's why he can brazenly make
    requests that don't fit his abilities.
[03:17] Chiaki
    You're really taking a shine to
    being the villain, aren't you?
[03:20] Fuyusawa
    That's because I've never been able
    to rely on those in supporting roles.
[03:25] Fuyusawa
    Though I never really expect
    much from you, anyway.
[03:29] Irinatsu
    Okay, okay, that's enough. Moving on.
[03:32] Irinatsu
    Do you think this Hoshitani kid made that
    request because you riled him up, Shiki-chan?
[03:37] Fuyusawa
    What are you talking about?
[03:38] Fuyusawa
    Do you have some connection
    to that second-year?
[03:45] (Flashback) Hoshitani
    Don't you dare make fun of
    Otori-senpai or our team!
[03:50] (Flashback) Shiki
    If it upsets you, then do something about it.
[03:53] (Flashback) Shiki
    Sitting here wallowing in self-pity
    is the ultimate waste of time.
[04:01] Shiki
    It just happened.
[04:03] Shiki
    I didn't mean to rile him up.
[04:04] Fuyusawa
    Whether you meant to or not,
    don't do anything unnecessary.
[04:08] Shiki
    I know, but still...
[04:12] Shiki
    I didn't think he'd turn around
    and do something like this.
[04:21] Fuyusawa
    Irinatsu, have you finished
    arranging the song yet?
[04:24] Irinatsu
    Huh?
[04:25] Fuyusawa
    I believe your deadline
    was the end of last week.
[04:27] Irinatsu
    Ah, sorry. Can you give
    me a bit more time?
[04:30] Chiaki
    Don't be so blasé about this.
[04:32] Chiaki
    They need to start practicing with the song.
[04:35] Fuyusawa
    I don't care if it's incomplete.
    Just give us something we can use.
[04:38] Irinatsu
    You're joking.
[04:40] Irinatsu
    I am an artist.
[04:42] Irinatsu
    I refuse to put out anything that isn't perfect.
[04:44] Fuyusawa
    Irinatsu...
[04:45] Irinatsu
    Oh, I know! I'll go and try to
    persuade those second-years.
[04:49] Irinatsu
    See ya.
[04:53] Kasugano
    He bolted.
[05:07] Kitahara
    So, you have an idea, right?
[05:10] Hoshitani
    Idea?
[05:11] Kitahara
    A way for all fourteen of us to
    perform on stage together!
[05:15] Kitahara
    If you confronted the Kao Council like that,
    you must have some kind of idea.
[05:18] Hoshitani
    Huh? Uh...
[05:21] Kitahara
    Seriously? You went in there
    recklessly and without a plan?
[05:25] Kitahara
    Guilty!
[05:26] Tengenji
    You were with him, so that
    makes you guilty too, you boor.
[05:33] Tengenji
    Who's there?
[05:35] Irinatsu
    I am an artist, and artists
    are fickle creatures.
[05:38] Irinatsu
    Not that I mind,
[05:39] Irinatsu
    but are you the type to just rush
    into things without thinking?
[05:44] Irinatsu
    You all are quite interesting.
[05:47] Irinatsu
    But you should probably show some
    caution or you'll get burned.
[06:08] ---
    While I appreciate passion,
[06:12] ---
    Defenselessness is no good
[06:16] ---
    You're going to wind up burned
[06:19] ---
    Try to do things a bit more coolly
[06:23] ---
    The more inexperienced you are
[06:27] ---
    You wear your passion like a flame
[06:30] ---
    Increase the voltage
[06:35] ---
    On the stage of your youth
[06:40] ---
    SILENT FEVER (FEVER!!)
[06:42] ---
    My BPM takes off
[06:44] ---
    Control your time cleverly
[06:48] ---
    Beat take you higher (higher!!)
[06:50] ---
    To be passionate yet cool
[06:52] ---
    Is my unwavering policy
[06:55] ---
    It wells up the more I try to hide it
[06:58] ---
    So when I finally
[07:00] ---
    Record it on a track along with my heartbeat
[07:03] ---
    Burn up desire (desire!!)
[07:06] ---
    Heat it! Heat it!

[07:19] ---
    Try to get over (Get over)
[07:33] All
    Irinatsu-senpai...
[07:36] Irinatsu
    I'll give you some advice:
    just give it up already.
[07:41] Irinatsu
    No matter what you do, you're only going
    to make yourselves more frustrated.
[07:46] Kuga
    Tengenji.
[07:48] Irinatsu
    Anyway, just leave everything
    to the star of stars.
[07:51] Irinatsu
    The rest of you should just do your
    best on your own class production.
[07:56] Tengenji
    Mind your own business!
[07:58] Tengenji
    Just you wait! We'll make you beg us
    to perform in Opening Ceremony.
[08:03] Tengenji
    I'll make you all stand up and
    take notice that the prince
[08:06] Tengenji
    of the theater world,
    Tengenji Kakeru, is here.
[08:11] Tsukigami
    Good grief... Just who was it that
    was calling Hoshitani brash earlier?
[08:17] Tengenji
    I can't just keep my mouth shut
    when he's stirring us up like that!
[08:19] Nayuki
    Tengenji-kun, calm down.
[08:20] Tengenji
    How dare he make such assumptions
[08:23] Tengenji
    when he knows nothing about us?!
[08:26] Hoshitani
    In that case...
[08:27] Hoshitani
    We just have to help him get to know us.
[08:30] Kitahara
    You just say whatever you come up with, huh?
[08:33] Hachiya
    How are we supposed to
    help him get to know us?
[08:36] Kitahara
    What's your plan?
[08:39] Kitahara
    I can't believe you...
[08:40] Tsukigami
    Nonetheless, it's not actually a bad
    idea to show the current Kao Council
[08:44] Tsukigami
    what makes us appealing.
[08:46] Tsukigami
    We might even be able to recover
    this low impression they have of us.
[08:49] Kuga
    It's predictable, but maybe
    we should go with that plan?
[08:56] Fuyusawa
    Irinatsu.
[08:59] Irinatsu
    Morning, Ryo-chin.
[09:01] Fuyusawa
    No need for that.
[09:03] Fuyusawa
    What's the status of
    the song arrangement?
[09:06] ---
    Is that Team Otori?
[09:06] Fuyusawa
    Make sure to submit the finished
    song at the end of the day.
[09:08] ---
    Recreating themselves again?
[09:09] Irinatsu
    Ah, about that...
[09:09] ---
    Uh, it's not just Team Otori...
[09:12] Hoshitani
    Senpai!
[09:20] All
    Good morning!
[09:28] Kitahara
    Is there really a point to this?
[09:31] Nanjo
    So quit if you don't like it.
[09:39] Tengenji
    We are ardent for Ayanagi, A-I-U-E-O!
[09:41] Others
    We are ardent for Ayanagi, A-I-U-E-O!
[09:46] Tengenji
    Okay, now we're going to
    run laps! Let's go! Fight!
[09:49] Others
    Yeah!
[09:54] Kitahara
    Is there really a point to this?
[09:56] Nanjo
    No clue.
[09:57] All
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[10:01] All
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[10:04] All
    One, two, three, four,
    five, six, seven, eight!
[10:08] All
    One, two, three, four, five...
[10:13] Ageha
    Senpai.
[10:15] Hachiya
    We polished your shoes.
[10:17] Irinatsu
    Wow, they look like new!
[10:20] Irinatsu
    While you're at it...
[10:23] Irinatsu
    Please handle disposing
    of these old lesson shoes.
[10:29] ---
    Ugh, I'm beat...
[10:31] Kuga
    Senpai.
[10:32] Tsukigami
    Would you like some help?
[10:33] Irinatsu
    That'd be great.
[10:35] Irinatsu
    Then once you've put this away,
[10:37] Irinatsu
    grab those boxes over there and carry
    them to Team Irinatsu's practice room.
[10:42] Irinatsu
    I'll leave you to it.
[10:45] Irinatsu
    A snack?
[10:46] Irinatsu
    For me?
[10:47] Nayuki
    Yes, please enjoy it.
[10:50] Irinatsu
    Thanks! I will, then.
[10:53] Irinatsu
    Yum!
[10:56] Hoshitani
    Um, Senpai...
[10:58] Hoshitani
    Are you possibly considering
    letting us perform
[11:02] Hoshitani
    in Opening Ceremony yet?
[11:04] Irinatsu
    Nope, not at all.
[11:09] Irinatsu
    Thanks for the snack.
[11:13] Kuga
    And so the plan to show the Kao
    Council a new side of ourselves
[11:16] Kuga
    so they would let us perform in
    Opening Ceremony ends in failure.
[11:21] Tsukigami
    I feel like things ended up a lot
    different than we intended.
[11:24] Tengenji
    We'll just have to go with
    a more forceful plan.
[11:26] Tengenji
    Kuga, let's go convince
    them with our fists.
[11:29] Kuga
    Why me?
[11:30] Ageha
    In that case...
[11:32] Ageha
    Let's go on strike.
[11:34] Hoshitani
    S-Strike?
[11:36] Ageha
    We won't do what the
    Kao Council says until
[11:39] Ageha
    they actually start taking us seriously.
[11:41] Tsukigami
    Oh, so that's what you mean by a strike.
[11:44] Tsukigami
    It might help to try pretending
    that we're willing to negotiate.
[11:47] Kitahara
    That's not a bad idea.
[11:49] Tengenji
    Once the strike goes public,
[11:51] Tengenji
    the Kao Council won't know
    what to do with themselves.
[11:54] Tengenji
    Even they would want to do
    everything they can to avoid it.
[12:02] Hoshitani
    I-I'm not so sure about this...
[12:13] Hoshitani
    W-We feel that your decision was too
    high-handed, and we cannot agree with it.
[12:20] Hoshitani
    Therefore, we would like to withhold
    our participation in all events led by
[12:26] Hoshitani
    the Kao Council until you reconsider
    our participation in Opening Ceremony.
[12:30] Chiaki
    Nonsense.
[12:32] Chiaki
    Does this mean you won't perform in the
    Ayanagi Festival class production, either?
[12:35] Tengenji
    That's right!
[12:37] Irinatsu
    Okay, let's make a deal, then.
[12:41] Chiaki
    Those not performing in the Ayanagi
    Festival won't need the practice hall.
[12:45] Kasugano
    Use of the instruments and
    equipment is also prohibited.
[12:47] All
    What?!
[12:48] Tengenji
    H-Hey, is that seriously how
    you're going to handle this?
[12:51] Fuyusawa
    You're the ones who made the demands.
[12:54] Fuyusawa
    This puts an end to our problem.
SIGN    Off Limits!!
[13:00] Kuga
    It's locked.
[13:01] Tengenji
    Who was it that said the Kao Council
    couldn't be bad because
[13:04] Tengenji
    they were chosen by
    Otori-senpai and the rest?
[13:07] Tsukigami
    They totally played us.
[13:09] Nayuki
    Is this what you call
    "going back to the drawing board"?
[13:12] Kitahara
    This isn't going back. It's getting worse.
[13:20] Irinatsu
    What's the matter, Kasuga-chan?
[13:22] Kasugano
    You helped the second-years, didn't you?
[13:25] Kasugano
    They were on the verge of
    truly angering Fuyusawa.
[13:29] Kasugano
    If that had happened, it's likely
    they would have been dealt with.
[13:33] Irinatsu
    Well, I did stir them up a bit myself,
    though not as much as Shiki-chan.
[13:37] Irinatsu
    Besides, they don't know how
    truly scary Ryo-chin can be.
[13:39] Kasugano
    The one who's truly likely
    to anger Fuyusawa right now
[13:42] Kasugano
    isn't the second-years. It's you.
[13:45] Kasugano
    He's running out of patience waiting
    for the song for Opening Ceremony.
[13:49] Kasugano
    Even an unfinished piece—
[13:50] Irinatsu
    What're you talking about?
[13:51] Irinatsu
    Don't make me keep repeating
    myself. I am an artist.
[13:55] Irinatsu
    I won't shame myself by putting
    out something unfinished.
[13:58] Fuyusawa
    You have until tomorrow.
[14:00] Irinatsu
    Ryo-chin?
[14:01] Fuyusawa
    You can call yourself an artist
    after you've produced results.
[14:07] Irinatsu
    You've said something pretty
    intense, Ryo-chin, but you know...
[14:12] Irinatsu
    Hitting roadblocks when trying to
    create is part of being an artist.
[14:23] Irinatsu
    My usual, please.
[14:24] Server
    Yes, sir.
[14:28] Irinatsu
    Huh?
[14:35] Irinatsu
    That's...
[14:36] Server
    Oh, you mean him?
[14:38] Server
    He quit working here recently,
[14:40] Server
    but our pianist suddenly fell ill,
    so he's filling in for him temporarily.
[14:48] Irinatsu
    Your piano has quite a sensual appeal.
[14:50] Irinatsu
    You might as well take your job back.
    It's not as if you need to practice anymore.
[14:55] Irinatsu
    You guys sure are sticking to your guns.
[14:57] Irinatsu
    That's made things pretty
    enjoyable for us, though.
[15:00] Irinatsu
    Is this some youthful game of pretend?
[15:02] Kuga
    It's not pretend.
[15:06] Irinatsu
    I see. Aren't you tired of it, though?
[15:09] Irinatsu
    You'll just embarrass yourselves
    by overreaching like that.
[15:12] Irinatsu
    Do you want prestige that badly?
[15:14] Irinatsu
    Do you want to be candidates for
    the next Kao Council so badly?
[15:17] Kuga
    We're not interested in that.
[15:21] Irinatsu
    Then what is it that's motivating you guys?
[15:25] Kuga
    Who knows?
[15:27] Kuga
    Your coffee is getting cold.
[15:40] Tengenji
    There's nothing to do.
[15:47] Nayuki
    Hoshitani-kun?
[15:48] Hoshitani
    I want to sing!
[15:50] Hoshitani
    I want to dance!
[15:52] Hoshitani
    I want to be in a musical!
[15:58] Nayuki
    Hoshitani-kun...
[16:00] Hoshitani
    That's it! There's that open-air theater...
[16:05] Hoshitani
    Never mind. I don't want to go there.
[16:10] Kuga
    First-years?
[16:12] Tsukigami
    Remember when it was like that for us?
[16:15] Tengenji
    Yeah.
[16:18] Hoshitani
    I know!
[16:23] Nayuki
    The practice hall we used when
    we were Star Team students.
[16:26] Hoshitani
    It's not being used anymore, since
    the new practice hall was finished.
[16:32] Hoshitani
    Welcome to Team Otori's paradise!
[16:37] Ageha
    You all used this room?
[16:40] Hachiya
    It's old, but it has a charm to it.
[16:44] Kitahara
    Does this mean you're making us
    genuine members of your group now?
[16:50] Nanjo
    It's not very well equipped
    by Ayanagi standards.
[16:53] Hoshitani
    You think so?
[16:54] Hoshitani
    I was too busy focusing on following
    Otori-senpai's instructions
[16:58] Hoshitani
    to really be bothered by it.
[17:00] Tsukigami
    Well, the rest of us were also taken
    aback by his style of instruction.
[17:05] Nayuki & Tengenji
    Yeah.
[17:06] Tengenji
    For our first practice,
    he just handed us a script
[17:08] Tengenji
    and had us get right up on stage.
[17:10] Team Otori
    The Ayanagi Academy Murder Case!
[17:13] Hachiya
    A m-murder case?
[17:15] Kitahara
    What kind of practice
    is that? Sounds guilty.
[17:17] Nayuki
    And the script picked up at the climax,
    so we were pretty blind-sided.
[17:22] Nanjo
    Improv for your first practice?
    That sounds pretty reckless to me.
[17:27] Tsukigami
    We felt the same way.
[17:28] Tengenji
    And Hoshitani was a complete and
    total amateur at the time, too.
[17:40] Hoshitani
    Oh, what do I do?
[17:43] Nayuki
    Hoshitani-kun?
[17:45] Hoshitani
    The enemy's power is too great.
[17:48] Hoshitani
    No matter what I do, defeat is certain.
[17:52] Hoshitani
    Is this the end?
[17:54] Kuga
    Is he doing improv?
[17:58] Nayuki
    Prince Hoshitani!
[18:00] Nayuki
    You mustn't give up.
[18:02] Nayuki
    There is still a way to win!
[18:05] Tengenji
    Honestly, we are burdened with
    such a timid lord commander.
[18:12] Tsukigami
    It is not in your nature to be so hesitant.
[18:15] Tsukigami
    We feared our opponent's power
    so much that we lost our way.
[18:20] Kuga
    Indeed.
[18:21] Kuga
    How would throwing away
    our greatest weapon help?
[18:26] Hoshitani
    Everyone...
[18:29] Hoshitani
    Thank you, my trusted friends.
    Now I know what to do.
[18:35] Hoshitani
    Abandoning hope, for us,
    is tantamount to admitting defeat.
[18:39] Kitahara
    Jeez.
[18:40] Nanjo
    Ren?
[18:41] Kitahara
    I will accompany you on this journey.
[18:44] Hoshitani
    Prince Kitahara!
[18:46] Kitahara
    You won't be able to open the
    steel door without my dance moves.
[18:50] Ageha
    I shall accompany you as
    well, Prince Hoshitani.
[18:54] Hoshitani
    Prince Ageha.
[18:55] Ageha
    With the singing voice of a nightingale,
[18:58] Ageha
    I shall put our enemy under a rapturous spell.
[19:02] Nanjo
    Prince Ren and Prince Ageha
    are really into this.
[19:04] Hachiya
    I... I will follow Prince
    Ageha wherever he goes!
[19:13] Hoshitani
    My trustworthy companions!
[19:15] Hoshitani
    We shall go forth together,
    seeking the light of hope!

[19:23] Irinatsu
    Do you intend to continue to defy
    our great and honorable nation?
[19:28] Irinatsu
    Stop this now.
[19:30] Irinatsu
    You should have realized by now
    that you are all far too powerless.
[19:34] Hoshitani
    Even so, we won't give up!
[19:37] Irinatsu
    You're just going to lose.
[19:39] Hoshitani
    We know!
[19:40] Irinatsu
    You're completely cornered.
[19:42] Hoshitani
    We know!
[19:44] Irinatsu
    Then why? What is it that
    motivates you guys?
[19:49] Hoshitani
    We want to perform together.
    There's no other reason than that.
[19:53] Hoshitani
    The bond forged by the fourteen
    of us born in the same country
[19:55] Hoshitani
    is stronger than anything!
[19:57] Hoshitani
    It's only natural for friends or family
    members to want to laugh together!
[20:18] Irinatsu
    The Kao Council isn't
    going to change its mind.
[20:22] Irinatsu
    But...
[20:29] Irinatsu
    Man, I give up!
[20:30] Irinatsu
    You guys have the best passion.
[20:33] Irinatsu
    If you're going to do this,
    you'd better give it your all.
[20:35] Irinatsu
    But we're not going to
    go easy on you, either.
[20:44] Tengenji
    What was that about?
[20:45] Hoshitani
    Irinatsu-senpai...
[20:47] Hoshitani
    He saw us. He's the first one
    to really listen to our story!

    There!
[22:39] Irinatsu
    It's all done.
[22:41] Shiki
    What kind of song is it?
[22:44] Irinatsu
    One that expresses the beauty
    of that which is imperfect,
[22:47] Irinatsu
    I guess you could say.
[22:49] Irinatsu
    There are many ways to shine,
    and each is valuable.
[22:52] Kasugano
    That doesn't really feel
    like it suits Team Hiragi.
[22:56] Irinatsu
    Well, that would be because
[22:57] Irinatsu
    Hoshitani and the rest gave me inspiration.
[23:00] Kasugano
    That's going to upset Fuyusawa.
[23:02] Irinatsu
    You know...
[23:04] Irinatsu
    Those guys might not be all
    that different from us.
[23:07] Irinatsu
    They just want to perform
    with their beloved friends.
[23:11] Irinatsu
    That's all.
