**[00:08] ---**
It was just a little while ago...
**[00:11] ---**
...that we were ordinary girls,
longing to become princesses.
**[00:16] ---**
A dazzling palace.
A gorgeous dress. A kind prince.
**[00:22] ---**
We always thought
that was a faraway dream.
**[00:28] ---**
But then one day...
**[00:31] ---**
...we had a fateful encounter...
**[00:35] ---**
...and a magic spell was cast on us.
**[00:41] ---**
It was such beautiful magic.
**[00:50] ---**
Please, Cinderella♪
This dream can't end as just a dream
**[00:55] ---**
I've started to move
towards dazzling days
**[01:02] ---**
"WE HAVE A DREAM"
**[01:02] ---**
This magic
isn't just ours.
**[01:04] ---**
This magic isn't just ours.
**[01:05] ---**
"OF PUTTING ON THE GLASS SLIPPER"
**[01:05] ---**
This magic
isn't just ours.
**[01:06] ---**
"OF PUTTING ON THE GLASS SLIPPER"
**[01:06] ---**
Everyone here can
become princes and Cinderellas!
**[01:06] ---**
Everyone here can
become princes and Cinderellas!
**[01:06] ---**
"GOING TO THE PALACE"
**[01:06] ---**
Everyone here can
become princes and Cinderellas!
**[01:08] ---**
Everyone here can
become princes and Cinderellas!
**[01:08] ---**
"AND DANCING IN THE SPOTLIGHT"
**[01:08] ---**
Everyone here can
become princes and Cinderellas!
**[01:10] ---**
Everyone here can
become princes and Cinderellas!
**[01:12] ---**
Every day, I wanna have a cute
heart in times both good and bad
**[01:17] ---**
When I'm in a pinch and trying
to survive, I wanna overcome it coolly
**[01:23] ---**
Update my discouraged
heart with invincible passion
**[01:28] ---**
I'll just keep doing
everything that I can
**[01:33] ---**
So the magic will never end
**[01:38] ---**
I believe in miracles
surrounding real skills
**[01:43] ---**
"I BELIEVE!"
**[01:43] ---**
I believe in miracles
surrounding real skills
**[01:44] ---**
Please, Cinderella♪
This dream can't end as just a dream
**[01:47] ---**
"THIS DREAM CAN'T END AS JUST A DREAM"
**[01:47] ---**
Please, Cinderella♪
This dream can't end as just a dream
**[01:50] ---**
It'll come true if you wish upon a star
**[01:55] ---**
"I'LL FIND IT"
**[01:55] ---**
I'll find it, my only star
**[01:56] ---**
I'll find it, my only star
**[01:56] ---**
"A LIGHT ONLY FOR ME"
**[01:56] ---**
I'll find it, my only star
**[01:58] ---**
"I WANNA KEEP LOOKING TILL I DO"
**[01:58] ---**
I wanna keep looking till I do
**[02:01] ---**
After you're done crying
**[02:03] ---**
Smile again
**[02:05] ---**
Smartly
**[02:06] ---**
But also cutely
**[02:08] ---**
Let's move ahead

EPISODE 1
**[02:26] ---**
PREPARING
**[02:31] ---**
Uzuki-chan.
**[02:33] ---**
Good afternoon!
**[02:36] ---**
Looking at photos
from that last concert?
**[02:40] ---**
Yes! I was thinking
I can't wait to be on stage too.
**[02:44] ---**
I know. You were so close
at that last Cinderella audition.
**[02:51] ---**
I'm taking a lot of other
auditions too, but it's tough.
**[02:57] ---**
Still, you're doing
your best, Uzuki-chan.
**[03:00] ---**
Even after your classmates
dropped out one after another.
**[03:05] ---**
All right! I'm gonna
try even harder!
**[03:10] ---**
Ouch...
**[03:11] ---**
Easy, easy.
**[03:13] ---**
It's good to try hard,
but you can't overdo it.
**[03:18] ---**
Sorry...
**[03:28] ---**
Who's that? Do you know him?
**[03:30] ---**
N-No...
**[03:33] ---**
W-Who are you?
**[03:35] ---**
If you have business, please
see the receptionist.
**[03:38] ---**
No. I...
**[03:41] ---**
Three, two...
**[03:44] ---**
Three, four...
**[03:47] ---**
One, two...
**[04:08] ---**
M-M-Mama!
**[04:13] ---**
You are Uzuki Shimamura-san, yes?
**[04:23] ---**
PREPARING
**[04:25] ---**
346 Production...
**[04:28] ---**
Cinderella Project, Producer...
**[04:33] ---**
Y-You're a producer?
**[04:35] ---**
Yes.
**[04:36] ---**
I believe you've already
taken the Cinderella audition,
**[04:41] ---**
but we have three
openings at the moment.
**[04:45] ---**
You're inviting me
to join the project?
**[04:48] ---**
Yes.
**[04:50] ---**
You mean... I can make my debut?
**[04:56] ---**
Correct.
**[05:00] ---**
D-Debut!
**[05:04] ---**
I can finally become an idol!
**[05:09] ---**
Do you accept?
**[05:12] ---**
Yes!
**[05:14] ---**
Of course!
**[05:15] ---**
I'll do my best!
**[05:19] ---**
Yeah! Yeah!
**[05:21] ---**
That's right! That's it, Mama!
**[05:25] ---**
I'm really gonna make my debut!
**[05:29] ---**
Yeah! Be right home!
See you in a bit!
**[05:34] ---**
Debut!
**[05:41] ---**
Flowers...
**[05:44] ---**
Hello!
**[05:47] ---**
Welcome.
**[05:50] ---**
Which ones should I get?
**[05:54] ---**
Pretty!
**[05:58] ---**
One, ten, one hundred...
**[06:01] ---**
One, ten, one hundred...
**[06:08] ---**
M-Maybe they're a little
too extravagant for me.
**[06:15] ---**
But the ones over here...
**[06:17] ---**
I think I'll go with roses.
**[06:20] ---**
These are nice too!
**[06:23] ---**
But...
**[06:25] ---**
But...
**[06:30] ---**
What are you looking for?
**[06:34] ---**
S-Sorry.
**[06:36] ---**
I just can't seem to decide...
**[06:40] ---**
Are you buying them for someone?
**[06:42] ---**
Yes! Although it's myself...
**[06:48] ---**
But it's to mark a very
special occasion for myself!
**[06:53] ---**
Then how about these?
**[06:57] ---**
Anemones.
**[06:58] ---**
In the language of flowers,
they mean, um... anticipation and hope.
**[07:04] ---**
Anticipation... Hope...
**[07:07] ---**
I kind of thought
that's what you're feeling...
**[07:13] ---**
Thank you.
**[07:15] ---**
No, thank you for your help!
**[07:20] ---**
I'll do my best!
**[07:28] ---**
Rin? Sorry.
**[07:30] ---**
I can take over now.
**[07:35] ---**
Um... You're launching new units
and are producing on several fronts!
**[07:44] ---**
- And I'm on one of them, right?
- Yes.
**[07:47] ---**
Have other girls already
come on board for this project?
**[07:52] ---**
No. You're the first person
we've reconsidered.
**[07:57] ---**
Really?
**[07:59] ---**
As for a unit assignment, that will
happen after we select the other two.
**[08:05] ---**
I apologize, but we need
you to stand by for the time being.
**[08:12] ---**
O-Oh, really?
**[08:14] ---**
Yes.
**[08:16] ---**
So please continue
your training lessons.
**[08:21] ---**
Okay! I'll do my best!
**[08:26] ---**
Do you have any other questions?
**[08:29] ---**
Um...
**[08:34] ---**
Yes! When can I release a CD?
**[08:38] ---**
It's currently in the planning stage.
**[08:40] ---**
I see!
**[08:43] ---**
Um, when can I be on TV?
**[08:46] ---**
It's currently in the planning stage.
**[08:48] ---**
I see!
**[08:51] ---**
Um, can I have a concert?
**[08:54] ---**
That's also in the planning stage.
**[08:57] ---**
I-I see...
**[09:00] ---**
Otherwise, um... uh...
**[09:08] ---**
Also, why me?
**[09:13] ---**
What do you mean?
**[09:15] ---**
Uh... I didn't once make
the cut for this audition.
**[09:21] ---**
So I was hoping you could tell me
the reason for choosing me this time...
**[09:29] ---**
Your smile.
**[09:32] ---**
My smile?
**[09:34] ---**
Yes.
**[09:36] ---**
Do you need further explanation?
**[09:38] ---**
No.
**[09:40] ---**
No!
**[09:43] ---**
My smile's the one thing
I have confidence in!
**[09:45] ---**
V!
**[09:49] ---**
Thank you!
**[09:56] ---**
Two more...
**[09:58] ---**
I wonder what they'll be like.
**[10:01] ---**
H-Hey, you!
**[10:08] ---**
- Would you tell me what happened?
- I didn't do a thing.
**[10:13] ---**
I wouldn't say...
**[10:16] ---**
- What happened?
- Who knows?
**[10:18] ---**
- Nothing, I said.
- Then why's he so afraid?
**[10:22] ---**
Excuse me.
**[10:24] ---**
Maybe I'll take you to the station.
**[10:26] ---**
Wait...
**[10:27] ---**
Excuse me.
**[10:30] ---**
Why not listen to her some more?
**[10:33] ---**
W-Who are you?
**[10:37] ---**
You dropped a screw from your toy?
**[10:40] ---**
I thought someone would step
on it, but she kept the area clear.
**[10:46] ---**
I-I made a big mistake!
**[10:49] ---**
That's okay...
**[10:52] ---**
Sorry about that.
**[10:54] ---**
I only made the situation worse.
**[10:58] ---**
It's all right.
You got dragged into it.
**[11:02] ---**
Um...
**[11:04] ---**
Please take my card.
**[11:08] ---**
Are you interested
in becoming an idol?
**[11:13] ---**
No.
**[11:15] ---**
Oh, you're just a creepy recruiter.
Is that why you got involved?
**[11:21] ---**
No, that's not...
**[11:23] ---**
Sorry, but I don't know anything
about idols, and I'm not interested.
**[11:32] ---**
Good morning!
**[11:34] ---**
What shall we do today?
**[11:37] ---**
Your lesson, please.
**[11:39] ---**
My lesson, huh? I'll do my best!
**[11:42] ---**
I'd like to improve my dancing
a little bit before I meet the others.
**[11:48] ---**
Please.
**[11:49] ---**
Okay!
**[11:58] ---**
What are you doing here?
**[12:02] ---**
Didn't I tell you I wasn't interested?
**[12:06] ---**
I was hoping you would at
least take my business card.
**[12:17] ---**
- Who is he?
- No idea.
**[12:20] ---**
What?
**[12:21] ---**
There he is again.
**[12:28] ---**
It's the same no matter how often you ask.
**[12:31] ---**
I've no interest in being an idol.
**[12:37] ---**
How many new people
will they accept this year?
**[12:41] ---**
We'll be their upperclassmen.
Better shape up!
**[12:46] ---**
Good morning!
**[12:48] ---**
What shall we do today?
**[12:52] ---**
Well, your lesson...
**[12:53] ---**
My lesson, huh? I'll do my best!
**[12:56] ---**
I've gotten a bit better
at that one step I was weak at.
**[13:01] ---**
Whoa!
**[13:13] ---**
Rin!
**[13:15] ---**
Decided on a club?
**[13:17] ---**
No, not yet.
**[13:18] ---**
Join the wind-instrument music club.
You have a good ear for music.
**[13:24] ---**
You hear about the suspicious guy?
They say he's been around lately.
**[13:30] ---**
For real?
**[13:31] ---**
And he's got this murderous stare...
**[13:34] ---**
Scary!
**[13:39] ---**
What is it, Rin?
**[13:41] ---**
Um...
**[13:46] ---**
You should stop coming here.
**[13:49] ---**
People are talking about you.
**[13:53] ---**
I'd like to talk to you...
**[13:59] ---**
If you would at least take my card.
**[14:01] ---**
Hey, you!
**[14:04] ---**
Again?
**[14:05] ---**
Let's go to the station.
**[14:07] ---**
I didn't do anything.
**[14:09] ---**
Then what were you doing with her?
**[14:12] ---**
- U-Um...
- A suspicious person was...
**[14:15] ---**
Y-You've got
the wrong idea! He's...
**[14:24] ---**
I apologize.
**[14:25] ---**
Look, first off, what did you see in me
that makes you think I can be an idol?
**[14:33] ---**
Your smile.
**[14:37] ---**
Did I smile in front of you?
**[14:41] ---**
No. Not yet.
**[14:45] ---**
Was that a canned answer?
**[14:53] ---**
Whatever.
**[14:54] ---**
I-I have a question...
**[15:01] ---**
Are you enjoying
your life right now?
**[15:13] ---**
What do you mean?
And what's that got to do with you?
**[15:19] ---**
I don't know.
**[15:22] ---**
I just can't help thinking if there's
something you're passionate about
**[15:30] ---**
or something that
moves you right now.
**[15:36] ---**
That's not your business.
**[15:45] ---**
Look at this, Producer-san!
**[15:52] ---**
How was that?
**[15:55] ---**
It looked good.
**[15:56] ---**
Then what shall I do today?
**[15:59] ---**
Your lesson...
**[16:00] ---**
Huh?
**[16:02] ---**
R-Right, of course.
**[16:07] ---**
Understood!
**[16:08] ---**
I'll do my best with my lesson!
**[16:17] ---**
I apologize.
**[16:20] ---**
For keeping you waiting,
only taking your lessons.
**[16:24] ---**
I love my lessons!
**[16:31] ---**
Um, nothing yet on the other two?
**[16:35] ---**
No.
**[16:35] ---**
Like I thought.
**[16:41] ---**
I'm in the middle of
negotiating with one of them.
**[16:46] ---**
I'm going to meet her
again right now in fact.
**[16:51] ---**
Um, right now?
**[16:56] ---**
Yes.
**[16:58] ---**
U-Um, can I go with you?
**[17:06] ---**
Huh?
**[17:07] ---**
This shop...
**[17:10] ---**
What about it?
**[17:11] ---**
Well, see you later.
**[17:15] ---**
Then you're...
**[17:27] ---**
What a cute doggie.
**[17:28] ---**
Yeah...
**[17:32] ---**
Um, got a name?
**[17:38] ---**
Hanako.
**[17:39] ---**
Hanako-chan?
**[17:41] ---**
I'm Uzuki Shimamura.
**[17:45] ---**
Thank you again for helping me choose
those flowers that time, Hanako-chan.
**[17:51] ---**
Hanako's my dog's name.
**[17:55] ---**
S-Sorry!
**[18:07] ---**
Rin.
**[18:09] ---**
Rin Shibuya.
**[18:11] ---**
That's my name.
**[18:14] ---**
Gotcha!
**[18:16] ---**
Nice to meet you, Shibuya-san!
**[18:19] ---**
Rin's fine.
**[18:21] ---**
Then it's nice to meet you, Rin-chan.
**[18:25] ---**
Nice to meet you, um...
**[18:28] ---**
It's Uzuki!
**[18:31] ---**
Uzuki...
**[18:35] ---**
Um, so, Rin-chan...
**[18:38] ---**
Yes?
**[18:39] ---**
From now on, let's do our
best together to become idols!
**[18:49] ---**
Look, I'm not even
interested in becoming an idol...
**[18:56] ---**
I told him that
from the day we met.
**[19:09] ---**
Hurry!
**[19:10] ---**
Wait!
**[19:11] ---**
This way!
**[19:13] ---**
You're fast!
**[19:15] ---**
Here!
**[19:18] ---**
Look where it went!
**[19:20] ---**
That guy...
**[19:23] ---**
I mean, isn't he strange?
**[19:26] ---**
Him.
**[19:28] ---**
The producer?
**[19:31] ---**
Yeah. He shows up every day
asking me to be an idol. That's all.
**[19:38] ---**
People thought he was
up to something shady...
**[19:43] ---**
He just said he
chose me for my smile...
**[19:49] ---**
T-
**[19:51] ---**
That's what he told me too...
**[19:54] ---**
But I think he really did
choose you for your smile.
**[19:59] ---**
R-Really?
**[20:02] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:06] ---**
That's fine.
**[20:07] ---**
Either way, that producer may be the one
who makes my long-held dream come true!
**[20:14] ---**
Dream?
**[20:15] ---**
To be an idol?
**[20:17] ---**
Right!
**[20:23] ---**
Listen...
**[20:25] ---**
Why do you want
to become an idol, Uzuki?
**[20:29] ---**
W-Why?
**[20:31] ---**
Um, well, you get to wear pretty
outfits, be on a brilliant stage,
**[20:38] ---**
be like a princess...
**[20:42] ---**
I've always wanted to be like that...
**[20:51] ---**
Um, to be honest, I don't really
know what kind of work an idol does,
**[21:02] ---**
but it's my dream.
**[21:08] ---**
I joined a school, took lessons with the
other students, and waited a long time.
**[21:17] ---**
Waiting for the day I could become an
idol, become something that dazzles...
**[21:24] ---**
I wanted it so badly
**[21:30] ---**
and then one day,
that producer paid me a visit.
**[21:35] ---**
Him...
**[21:43] ---**
He found me,
**[21:49] ---**
so now I have the chance
to make my dream come true.
**[21:55] ---**
That makes me so happy.
**[22:07] ---**
H-Hey! Hanako!
**[22:18] ---**
T-Thanks...
**[22:24] ---**
Think of it as looking for something
you could really be interested in...
**[22:31] ---**
Maybe just dip your toe in?
**[22:35] ---**
I guarantee that a whole
new world will open up to you.
**[23:17] ---**
I'm Rin Shibuya, 15 years old.
I'm looking forward to this.
**[23:22] ---**
Rin-chan!
**[23:24] ---**
Good to see you again, Uzuki.
**[23:26] ---**
Yes, likewise!
**[23:29] ---**
So you're going to be my producer?
**[23:35] ---**
I'm looking forward to it.
**[23:39] ---**
CINDERELLA AUDITION

**[00:04] ---**
It's like a castle!
**[00:06] ---**
It's to be expected
from a big studio.
**[00:11] ---**
So that's how they
write "Mishiro" in kanji...
**[00:18] ---**
The time's come.
**[01:51] ---**
EPISODE 2
**[01:56] ---**
So it's like this inside too.
**[01:59] ---**
Makes you nervous, right?
**[02:02] ---**
You don't see
chandeliers anymore, you know?
**[02:07] ---**
Hi there!
**[02:09] ---**
I'm a new idol, Mio Honda!
I start here today!
**[02:14] ---**
Congratulations.
**[02:15] ---**
Do you know her?
**[02:19] ---**
Yes, we've been
expecting you. Please sign in.
**[02:24] ---**
Sure...
**[02:26] ---**
Please go to the Cinderella
Project room on the 30th floor.
**[02:36] ---**
Is all this 346 Production?
**[02:39] ---**
I bet it is!
**[02:41] ---**
Papa told me it's a big
studio that even makes movies!
**[02:49] ---**
What floor?
**[02:50] ---**
Um...
**[02:52] ---**
Thirty please.
**[02:56] ---**
I'm sorry about that.
**[02:58] ---**
Oh no, I'm fine!
**[03:02] ---**
What floor?
**[03:03] ---**
Twenty-two please!
**[03:14] ---**
Here it is.
**[03:16] ---**
I wonder if there
are other girls too.
**[03:21] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[03:26] ---**
Excuse me...
**[03:31] ---**
It's beautiful!
**[03:33] ---**
But nobody's here.
**[03:36] ---**
Huh. It's got kind of
a cool atmosphere.
**[03:39] ---**
We saw you before...
**[03:41] ---**
Good morning.
**[03:44] ---**
Good morning.
**[03:47] ---**
I'll introduce you. This is
the girl I mentioned the other day––
**[03:52] ---**
Uzuki-chan!
**[03:53] ---**
Y-Yes...
**[03:54] ---**
Then you're Rin Shibuya-chan?
**[03:56] ---**
That's right...
**[04:02] ---**
What?
**[04:03] ---**
Surly but with an overflowing aura.
You're no ordinary girl.
**[04:08] ---**
Um...
**[04:09] ---**
She's the final member
of this project, Mio Honda-san.
**[04:14] ---**
The final member!
**[04:16] ---**
Mio Honda, tenth grade!
**[04:19] ---**
Nice to meet you!
**[04:20] ---**
Nice to meet you!
**[04:22] ---**
Mio-chan regrettably
didn't pass the first audition,
**[04:27] ---**
but she passed the second
when we had openings!
**[04:30] ---**
She's very lucky that way.
**[04:33] ---**
What can I say? It seems I've
caught the eye of the god of idols.
**[04:38] ---**
Incidentally, I'm guessing
I passed this time
**[04:42] ---**
because I was an
athletic idol at the academy.
**[04:46] ---**
Yes?
**[04:47] ---**
Because of your smile.
**[04:50] ---**
Smile, huh?
**[04:55] ---**
Well, please submit that by tomorrow.
**[04:58] ---**
Okay.
**[04:59] ---**
Excuse me...
**[05:00] ---**
Could you introduce her?
**[05:02] ---**
Oh...
**[05:04] ---**
I should've said before.
I'm Chihiro Senkawa.
**[05:08] ---**
I support this project from various
angles, so it's very nice to meet you.
**[05:14] ---**
Nice to meet you!
**[05:17] ---**
And now I have
a little something for you...
**[05:24] ---**
"Energy drink"...
**[05:26] ---**
Do your best.
**[05:28] ---**
We will.
- Thank you!
- I'll go all out!
**[05:33] ---**
What year are you guys?
**[05:35] ---**
First year, high school.
**[05:37] ---**
Then we're the same!
**[05:38] ---**
I'm a second year.
**[05:41] ---**
Really?
**[05:42] ---**
I figured you were younger.
**[05:44] ---**
I thought we were the same year.
**[05:50] ---**
Well, since you're a year older,
you should be the leader.
**[05:55] ---**
T-That's right! I'll do my best!
**[05:59] ---**
I'm counting on you!
**[06:00] ---**
Right! I'll do my best!
**[06:01] ---**
Spoken like a "big sister"!
**[06:05] ---**
I'm the big sister!
**[06:07] ---**
Producer...
**[06:10] ---**
Aren't there other members?
**[06:12] ---**
Yeah! I wonder what they're like!
**[06:14] ---**
Yeah!
**[06:16] ---**
You'll meet the other members later on.
**[06:19] ---**
Before that...
**[06:24] ---**
We're pros, but we have to start
with lessons, huh?
**[06:28] ---**
They're strict here.
**[06:30] ---**
Lessons are important.
And it's fun to keep improving.
**[06:35] ---**
So let's do our best together!
**[06:36] ---**
You're right.
**[06:39] ---**
I feel like a weight's been lifted.
**[06:42] ---**
Thanks to the "glasses talk"!
**[06:45] ---**
That could be.
**[06:49] ---**
You just saw?
**[06:51] ---**
Yes! Blue Napoleon!
**[06:53] ---**
Our first day's so lucky!
**[06:55] ---**
They were dazzling!
**[06:57] ---**
Maybe we'll even run into Kaede-san!
**[07:00] ---**
Now I'm even more psyched!
**[07:03] ---**
Rin-chan...
**[07:09] ---**
Okay...
**[07:11] ---**
This'll be your first time
dancing, right, Rin-chan?
**[07:15] ---**
Honda-san?
**[07:17] ---**
You can call me Mio.
**[07:18] ---**
Then... Mio-chan!
**[07:22] ---**
I've danced with friends before,
but this'll be my first formal lesson.
**[07:27] ---**
I see. I went to a training school,
so ask if you need help with something.
**[07:34] ---**
You're a real sempai!
**[07:38] ---**
I'm your dance trainer.
**[07:41] ---**
Nice to meet you!
**[07:43] ---**
For starters, try to follow my moves.
**[07:46] ---**
Okay, step!
**[07:48] ---**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
**[07:51] ---**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
**[07:54] ---**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
**[07:58] ---**
One, two, three, four... and turn!
**[08:05] ---**
Sorry I tried to act like a leader.
I could do that step before.
**[08:10] ---**
Dancing is difficult...
**[08:12] ---**
Yeah...
**[08:14] ---**
But it does feel good
to move around, doesn't it?
**[08:18] ---**
Yes.
**[08:24] ---**
I feel energized!
**[08:30] ---**
There's a spa room.
**[08:33] ---**
Spa room?
**[08:37] ---**
This is the studio, right?
**[08:39] ---**
Can we use it too?
**[08:42] ---**
I don't know...
**[08:45] ---**
Let's check it out!
**[08:47] ---**
Mio-chan!
**[08:49] ---**
"Secluded hot spring"? Yeah, right!
We had to climb a mountain!
**[08:54] ---**
It must've been exhausting.
**[08:55] ---**
I nearly fell once.
**[08:58] ---**
Please replenish your energies.
**[09:04] ---**
Do you have an appointment?
**[09:06] ---**
N-No...
**[09:09] ---**
Excuse us!
**[09:12] ---**
Saw that? That was Mizuki Kawashima!
**[09:15] ---**
Yes. She sure is pretty.
**[09:18] ---**
I've never heard of
a studio with a spa room!
**[09:21] ---**
Me neither.
**[09:24] ---**
Care for an adventure?
**[09:26] ---**
Adventure?
**[09:27] ---**
This building's huge, so I bet it's got
other cool features too! Let's go!
**[10:04] ---**
SPRING HOT SPRING FESTIVAL
**[10:32] ---**
Wasn't Natsuki-san's guitar
awesome, Shimamu?
**[10:35] ---**
Yes, really cool!
**[10:38] ---**
Huh? "Shimamu"?
**[10:40] ---**
Wish I could play like that!
**[10:43] ---**
So you play guitar.
**[10:44] ---**
No, not at all.
**[10:47] ---**
They're doing an interview!
**[10:50] ---**
Oh yeah!
**[10:51] ---**
Yes. I get nervous before concerts.
**[10:56] ---**
When I'm so excited I can't sleep,
it helps if I hold my teddy bear.
**[11:02] ---**
How girlish...
**[11:06] ---**
Miho Kohinata and Sae Kobayakawa!
**[11:09] ---**
They're idols too?
**[11:10] ---**
Right!
**[11:12] ---**
Isn't this too many idols!
**[11:14] ---**
Good morning!
**[11:16] ---**
Welcome to 346 Cafe.
Here's the menu.
**[11:21] ---**
This place has a maid cafe?
**[11:22] ---**
L-Looks like...
**[11:26] ---**
Due to certain factors, I'm working here
today, but my true identity is... zap!
**[11:32] ---**
Usami power effects
a fairy-tail change!
**[11:36] ---**
I'm Usamin, the singing, dancing,
voice-acting idol from Planet Usamin
**[11:42] ---**
also known as Nana Abe!
**[11:51] ---**
Good work!
**[11:52] ---**
Thank you.
**[11:57] ---**
Good morning.
**[11:58] ---**
Good morning.
**[12:04] ---**
Producer!
**[12:08] ---**
Hey, do you know Kaede Takagaki?
**[12:12] ---**
Yes.
**[12:14] ---**
Wow!
**[12:15] ---**
Maybe you're a powerful producer?
**[12:18] ---**
We work for the same agency, so...
**[12:21] ---**
That aside, you're late.
**[12:24] ---**
Sorry. We made a little
side trip and lost track of time.
**[12:30] ---**
You must be punctual.
Please see that you are.
**[12:34] ---**
We will...
**[12:36] ---**
Then shall we go?
**[12:38] ---**
I'll introduce you to the others.
**[12:40] ---**
Sure!
**[12:43] ---**
At the same time,
this will be your first job.
**[12:50] ---**
I see shadows. Move the lights.
**[12:53] ---**
Okay.
**[12:54] ---**
Wow! Feels like a studio all right!
**[12:58] ---**
It's beautiful.
**[12:59] ---**
I want to take publicity
photos of you three here.
**[13:04] ---**
PR photos?
**[13:05] ---**
Here on this set?
**[13:07] ---**
No, over here.
**[13:09] ---**
The shoot's already
started with the other members.
**[13:23] ---**
Da.
**[13:25] ---**
Checking the photos!
**[13:27] ---**
What's this?
**[13:29] ---**
The last members?
**[13:32] ---**
Hey, are you girls
also on the Cinderella Project?
**[13:36] ---**
Yes!
**[13:37] ---**
Right!
**[13:38] ---**
Yay!All right!
**[13:41] ---**
I'm Miria Akagi.
**[13:42] ---**
Now we're all here!
I couldn't be happier!
**[13:46] ---**
Yoo-hoo! I'm Rika Jougasaki!
**[13:49] ---**
I'm a seventh grader. Hope we can be friends!
**[13:52] ---**
Sure!
**[13:55] ---**
I saw you in a tree earlier...
**[13:57] ---**
That was you!
**[13:59] ---**
Climbing trees again?
That's dangerous, nya!
**[14:02] ---**
"Nya"?
**[14:03] ---**
I'm Miku Maekawa, nya.
Best regards, nyan!
**[14:07] ---**
What characters will you go with?
**[14:09] ---**
- Um... - Character... - Nyan?
**[14:11] ---**
Ahoy!
**[14:13] ---**
I'm Kirari! Nice to meet you all!
**[14:18] ---**
Yes...
**[14:20] ---**
I'm Minami Nitta.
**[14:21] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[14:23] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[14:25] ---**
I think you're a little
older than the rest of us.
**[14:30] ---**
Меня зовут Анастасия.
**[14:34] ---**
Um...
**[14:36] ---**
Please call me Anya.
**[14:38] ---**
Nice to meet you.
I'm Kanako Mimura.
**[14:42] ---**
I made these sweets myself.
**[14:45] ---**
Please help yourself.
**[14:47] ---**
Riina Tada.
I'm aiming to be a rock idol.
**[14:52] ---**
Cool!
**[14:54] ---**
Um...
**[14:56] ---**
I-I'm Chieri Ogata.
**[15:00] ---**
Um... It's a pleasure!
**[15:06] ---**
My name is Ranko Kanzaki.
**[15:09] ---**
I abide by a blood pact
and perform in resonance with souls.
**[15:16] ---**
The feast begins.
**[15:19] ---**
Souls?
**[15:21] ---**
What was that?
**[15:22] ---**
Dunno.
**[15:24] ---**
It seems we're one person short.
**[15:30] ---**
I found Anzu-chan!
**[15:31] ---**
IF YOU WORK, YOU LOSE
**[15:34] ---**
I'm Anzu Futaba.
**[15:37] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[15:40] ---**
"If you work, you lose"?
**[15:44] ---**
I'm Uzuki Shimamura!
Um... I'll try my best!
**[15:49] ---**
I'm Rin Shibuya.
Nice to meet you.
**[15:52] ---**
I'm Mio Honda,
tenth grade! Call me Mio!
**[15:56] ---**
That's everyone.
We now have 14 members.
**[15:59] ---**
Then we can finally...
**[16:02] ---**
Yes. The Cinderella Project
will begin at last.
**[16:06] ---**
Yay! All right! It took so long!
**[16:09] ---**
Happy, happy!
**[16:11] ---**
Good for us.
**[16:14] ---**
Aren't you fired up?
**[16:15] ---**
Yes! I'll do my best!
**[16:17] ---**
You too, Rin-chan!
**[16:20] ---**
Yeah.
**[16:22] ---**
Huh? It's kind of noisy in here.
**[16:26] ---**
What's everyone
gathered together for?
**[16:29] ---**
The hot high school
model, Mika Jougasaki?
**[16:33] ---**
That's me!
**[16:36] ---**
I saw her before in a magazine.
**[16:38] ---**
Sis!
**[16:40] ---**
"Sis"?
**[16:41] ---**
Jougasaki...
**[16:44] ---**
Hey, what's that outfit?
**[16:46] ---**
It's for my next show's poster.
**[16:49] ---**
I'm Mio Honda!
I became an idol today!
**[16:53] ---**
Oh? Here for PR photos?
**[16:56] ---**
Yes!
**[16:57] ---**
I see. I'm with a different studio,
**[17:00] ---**
but good to meet you.
**[17:01] ---**
You too!
**[17:03] ---**
You should move over here, Sis!
**[17:06] ---**
Well, I do worry
about leaving you alone.
**[17:10] ---**
That's terrible!
**[17:13] ---**
Well, good luck.
**[17:15] ---**
Thank you!
**[17:27] ---**
Isn't she amazing?
**[17:31] ---**
Shimamura-san, please get ready.
**[17:33] ---**
R-Right!
**[17:34] ---**
That's it! Nice! Smile!
**[17:50] ---**
Look this way!
**[18:07] ---**
Shimamura-san, please come over.
**[18:09] ---**
Right!
**[18:14] ---**
Too stiff! Smile!
**[18:20] ---**
Look over here!
**[18:22] ---**
How's this?
**[18:24] ---**
Act more naturally!
**[18:28] ---**
What should we do?
**[18:29] ---**
Once more please.
**[18:32] ---**
Roger.
**[18:33] ---**
Let's take a break!
**[18:34] ---**
Okay!
**[18:36] ---**
This outfit is cute.
**[18:38] ---**
I hope I did okay...
**[18:40] ---**
You were cute, Chieri.
**[18:43] ---**
Really?
**[18:44] ---**
Really!
**[18:45] ---**
I was so unnatural.
**[18:48] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:50] ---**
I was nervous for some reason...
**[18:54] ---**
It's tough to act natural.
**[18:57] ---**
I see. Okay.
**[19:01] ---**
It'll be you three now,
so be your usual chipper selves.
**[19:05] ---**
R-Right...
**[19:07] ---**
Usual...
**[19:12] ---**
Move around however you like.
**[19:17] ---**
U-Um, for now, Shimamu, pass!
**[19:23] ---**
Whoa...
**[19:24] ---**
Shimamu...
**[19:26] ---**
Shibu-rin, pass, pass!
**[19:29] ---**
Shibu-rin? Well, whatever...
**[19:33] ---**
Shimamu, set!
**[19:36] ---**
Shibu-rin, spike!
**[19:41] ---**
Nice spike!
**[19:47] ---**
There we go! I like those smiles!
**[19:50] ---**
After all, I was picked for my smile!
**[19:56] ---**
Me too! I passed the audition
because of my smile!
**[20:02] ---**
That's just all he'll say.
**[20:12] ---**
I guess we were all
told the same thing!
**[20:16] ---**
All right! Here I go!
**[20:18] ---**
Huh. They look good
for their first time.
**[20:25] ---**
Hey, is their schedule decided yet?
**[20:33] ---**
No.
**[20:41] ---**
Okay, that's it!
**[20:43] ---**
Hey, let's all get a shot together!
**[20:46] ---**
Producer-san!
**[20:49] ---**
How about joining us?
**[20:50] ---**
Come on!
**[20:53] ---**
No, you girls, go ahead.
**[20:58] ---**
I'm gonna take it. Smile!
**[21:08] ---**
We'll be in a concert?
**[21:11] ---**
Right. I've been on
the lookout for girls just like this.
**[21:16] ---**
Mika-chan's producer has already
given the okay, but what do you think?
**[21:22] ---**
Personally...
**[21:24] ---**
Yeah, I think they should go for it.
**[21:27] ---**
Sooner or later,
these girls will be on stage.
**[21:32] ---**
Getting their start like
this may just be a good idea.
**[21:36] ---**
Who's he?
**[21:38] ---**
He looks familiar...
**[21:40] ---**
See? Even the manager likes it.
**[21:43] ---**
Manager?
**[21:47] ---**
Then please get us
materials on your concert.
**[21:50] ---**
Sure. Right away.
**[21:52] ---**
Then that's an okay?
**[21:55] ---**
Yes.
**[21:56] ---**
All right! Let's have
a blast at the concert!
**[22:00] ---**
R-Right!
**[22:01] ---**
I look forward to it!
**[22:03] ---**
I'll do it too!
**[22:06] ---**
You can go next time.
**[22:08] ---**
Why?
**[22:09] ---**
I want a chance at the stage too, nya!
**[22:12] ---**
Living off royalties...
**[22:14] ---**
A live concert...
**[22:16] ---**
I hope I get the chance someday.
**[22:19] ---**
I-I...
**[22:28] ---**
Is it okay to decide this so easily?
**[22:31] ---**
It's fine!
**[22:32] ---**
I'm strong when it comes to the
real deal, so I think we'll do great!
**[22:38] ---**
A concert...
**[22:40] ---**
I can't wait!
**[23:56] ---**

**[00:10] ---**
To think we'll be on stage!
**[00:13] ---**
We're in big things right off!
Who knows what'll happen?
**[00:17] ---**
Isn't being an idol super fun?
**[00:20] ---**
Yeah!
**[00:23] ---**
What about you, Rin-chan?
**[00:26] ---**
It still doesn't feel real, I guess.
I can't imagine myself on stage.
**[00:35] ---**
Is this what it's like
to get your start as an idol?
**[00:42] ---**
I don't know, but...
**[00:46] ---**
You won't know until you try!
**[00:50] ---**
That hurts.
**[00:52] ---**
Good morn...
**[00:56] ---**
...ing.
**[00:57] ---**
I won't accept newcomers
going on stage before us, nya!
**[01:02] ---**
Let's fight to see
who's better suited for it, nya!
**[02:49] ---**
That was an incredible battle.
**[02:54] ---**
I just got a little
greedy, nya! I didn't lose!
**[02:59] ---**
Does this have anything
to do with being an idol?
**[03:08] ---**
Miku-chan, are you okay?
**[03:11] ---**
U-Um... I made snacks
to celebrate your going on stage!
**[03:21] ---**
Thanks!
**[03:22] ---**
Have some.
**[03:29] ---**
They're great!
**[03:31] ---**
I can't believe you
made this yourself!
**[03:35] ---**
Here, try one.
**[03:38] ---**
Thank you.
**[03:44] ---**
It's good.
**[03:46] ---**
Eat a whole lot. There's plenty.
**[03:50] ---**
- Really?
- Um...
**[03:51] ---**
Wow! Thank you!
**[03:54] ---**
I'll have one too.
**[03:57] ---**
Hey, Mimura!
**[03:59] ---**
You're an idol too, so you need
to think a bit about your weight.
**[04:04] ---**
I-I'm sorry!
**[04:06] ---**
Sheesh... By the way,
is Jougasaki here?
**[04:11] ---**
Morning!
**[04:13] ---**
Mika Jougasaki... san?
**[04:17] ---**
Good morning!
**[04:18] ---**
Sorry, an interview ran long.
**[04:21] ---**
Whatever. Just go change.
**[04:23] ---**
Okay.
**[04:28] ---**
I get to have a lesson
with Mika Jougasaki!
**[04:33] ---**
Show them the ropes first.
**[04:35] ---**
I'll look once they've got the basics.
**[04:37] ---**
Okay.
**[04:38] ---**
Do you have dance experience?
**[04:41] ---**
I danced with school friends a lot!
**[04:44] ---**
I did some at the training school...
**[04:46] ---**
Not really, I guess.
**[04:48] ---**
I watched the DVD
for this one to learn it.
**[04:52] ---**
Well, we won't know till we try.
**[04:55] ---**
Just leave it all to me!
**[05:00] ---**
Mika-chan!
**[05:01] ---**
I'm calling you Mika-nee!
**[05:03] ---**
M-Mika-nee?
**[05:04] ---**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.
**[05:08] ---**
If you come to a dead
stop here, it looks cool.
**[05:13] ---**
T-This is hard...
**[05:16] ---**
Um, there's a part I don't get.
**[05:20] ---**
Which?
**[05:21] ---**
Um...
**[05:24] ---**
"Tokimeki keeps on escalating...
**[05:28] ---**
I'm in a love mode
that pops like cider."
**[05:32] ---**
That part.
**[05:34] ---**
You can sing too, huh?
**[05:35] ---**
Nice, Shiburin!
**[05:36] ---**
You're so cool, Rin-chan!
**[05:38] ---**
T-That's beside the point.
**[05:40] ---**
Oh?
**[05:42] ---**
I wonder what outfits
they'll wear for the concert.
**[05:45] ---**
The concert...
**[05:47] ---**
Just thinking about it
makes me nervous!
**[05:52] ---**
Hold it, nya!
**[05:55] ---**
I just screwed up a little
last time, nya! Fight me again––
**[06:00] ---**
You have something
else to be doing right now.
**[06:08] ---**
Thank you!
**[06:11] ---**
Okay, see you around!
**[06:26] ---**
Is there something bothering you?
**[06:30] ---**
Oh, no.
**[06:33] ---**
Is it about the backup dancer girls?
**[06:38] ---**
Yes.
**[06:39] ---**
Of course, I think
they've all got the talent.
**[06:43] ---**
But to be honest,
it seems too soon.
**[06:47] ---**
You may be right.
**[06:50] ---**
But whatever happens, it'll be
a good experience for them, right?
**[07:06] ---**
These are our new outfits, right?
**[07:09] ---**
Is this for the winter concert?
**[07:13] ---**
Hey, hey! Shimamu! Look at this!
**[07:17] ---**
You shouldn't touch it without asking!
**[07:20] ---**
Oh, come on!
**[07:26] ---**
Huh?
**[07:27] ---**
Trainer-san?
**[07:31] ---**
I'm her sister.
**[07:33] ---**
You look just like her!
**[07:34] ---**
I get that a lot.
**[07:37] ---**
There. I'm a trainer like
my sister, but I'm still new.
**[07:42] ---**
So you're a rookie like us?
**[07:46] ---**
Rookie...
**[07:48] ---**
Then you can be Rookie-chan.
**[07:51] ---**
Rookie-chan?
**[07:58] ---**
This is pretty sexy!
**[08:03] ---**
You both look great!
**[08:05] ---**
You too!
**[08:06] ---**
Like a real idol!
**[08:08] ---**
Really?
**[08:09] ---**
I'd like you to see if the size fits.
**[08:12] ---**
Okay!
**[08:13] ---**
U-Um, my butt's a little...
**[08:17] ---**
You're dressed already!
**[08:19] ---**
Are those your stage outfits? Nice!
**[08:21] ---**
But wouldn't it be sexier if you
showed some skin around your belly?
**[08:29] ---**
I challenge you for those clothes!
**[08:32] ---**
Rock, paper, scissors!
Look over there!
**[08:35] ---**
I win!
**[08:37] ---**
You're good, Mio-chan!
**[08:38] ---**
That doesn't count, nya!
**[08:40] ---**
Luck is a skill too, right?
**[08:46] ---**
Okay, break.
**[08:49] ---**
You're next. How long are
you gonna pout, Maekawa?
**[08:53] ---**
Okay...
**[08:56] ---**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight!
**[08:59] ---**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight!
**[09:03] ---**
Here you go, Anya-chan.
**[09:07] ---**
Spasiba.
**[09:11] ---**
Thank you, Minami.
**[09:15] ---**
Minami, are they
okay being so overworked?
**[09:21] ---**
The concert's soon.
So everyone's working hard.
**[09:49] ---**
One, two, three, four! Knees
more limber! Sides further apart!
**[09:59] ---**
Uzuki-chan and the others
were working really hard!
**[10:06] ---**
Say something?
**[10:08] ---**
Did you want to stand
on stage with Mika-chan too?
**[10:14] ---**
A backup dancer for
an idol isn't rock at all.
**[10:19] ---**
It's not?
**[10:22] ---**
Maidens chosen by the eyes,
**[10:25] ---**
let the drops of life well forth
as you proceed towards the banquet.
**[10:32] ---**
I will rest my coal-black wings briefly
in preparation for the day to come.
**[10:43] ---**
Hey, come to think
of it, where's Anzu-chan?
**[10:48] ---**
It's rarer for her
to be here, right?
**[11:05] ---**
Well, I'd say that's the bare
minimum needed to pass.
**[11:09] ---**
All right!
**[11:10] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:13] ---**
Parts of that were iffy though.
**[11:16] ---**
Good work!
**[11:18] ---**
Anya-chan.
**[11:23] ---**
Pozhalujsta.
**[11:27] ---**
- Thank you.
- T-Thank you!
**[11:30] ---**
No... How do
you say it in Russian?
**[11:33] ---**
U-Um...
**[11:43] ---**
Pozdravlyayu.
**[11:46] ---**
Congratulations.
You all worked really hard.
**[11:50] ---**
I'm sure the concert
tomorrow will be wonderful.
**[11:55] ---**
Is my Japanese right?
**[11:59] ---**
Yeah.
**[12:00] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:04] ---**
Thank you.
**[12:06] ---**
We'll do our best!
**[12:07] ---**
Can I have one?
**[12:09] ---**
Yes, go ahead.
**[12:11] ---**
Thank you!
**[12:16] ---**
Learn all you can
from the veterans.
**[12:19] ---**
This whole day will be
a valuable experience for you.
**[12:23] ---**
Okay!
**[12:27] ---**
I still can't accept this, but you beat
me, so I'm entrusting this to you!
**[12:32] ---**
Good luck with your concert!
**[12:34] ---**
We'll be watching with everyone!
**[12:37] ---**
Okay, thanks!
**[12:42] ---**
BACKUP DANCER CLASSROOM
**[12:43] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[12:45] ---**
Thank you very much.
**[12:48] ---**
So this is backstage
before a concert.
**[12:51] ---**
Things are surprising the first time.
I once helped sell––
**[12:56] ---**
Come this way, everyone.
**[13:03] ---**
Introduce yourselves to the performers.
**[13:06] ---**
I-I-I'm Uzuki Shimamura,
one of the backup dancers!
**[13:12] ---**
I'm Mio Honda!
I look forward to today!
**[13:15] ---**
I'm Rin Shibuya.
Nice to meet you.
**[13:18] ---**
Nice to meet you!
**[13:21] ---**
Is this your first concert?
**[13:24] ---**
Yes!
**[13:25] ---**
I-It's nerve-wracking, right?
I've been nervous the whole day...
**[13:31] ---**
Nice to meet you! Let's do
our all to make this a hot concert!
**[13:36] ---**
Your first concert,
huh? That's wonderful.
**[13:40] ---**
If there's anything you
don't know, feel free to ask me.
**[13:45] ---**
Hey, you're the girl
I met before, right?
**[13:48] ---**
- Yes, I am!
- Glad you're here today.
**[13:52] ---**
Morning!
**[13:54] ---**
Morning!
**[13:55] ---**
Good morning!
**[13:56] ---**
Let's work hard today!
**[13:58] ---**
Of course!
**[13:59] ---**
Yes! Yes! Yes!
**[14:04] ---**
Good morning. I'm glad
to be here with you today.
**[14:09] ---**
We're glad to be here!
**[14:21] ---**
Um, stage left...
**[14:23] ---**
It's our left onstage.
**[14:25] ---**
Stage right is our right.
**[14:27] ---**
Um...
**[14:28] ---**
Stage left is our left.
Stage right is our right.
**[14:40] ---**
So loud...
**[14:42] ---**
That scared me.
**[14:44] ---**
Mic check please.
**[14:46] ---**
Hi! I'm Mika Jougasaki!
Nice to meet you!
**[14:50] ---**
Thanks. We'll cut the lights after
the intro, and you can exit stage right.
**[14:57] ---**
It's different
from normal shoes.
**[15:00] ---**
It's awkward if you're––
**[15:02] ---**
Rehearsal!
**[15:03] ---**
R-Right!
**[15:05] ---**
Watch your heads!
**[15:07] ---**
It moves pretty fast,
so watch the landing!
**[15:11] ---**
O-Okay!
**[15:13] ---**
Three, two, one!
**[15:24] ---**
Okay, cut for a second!
**[15:30] ---**
Let's do this one more time!
**[15:32] ---**
Okay!
**[15:35] ---**
Um, can we do that one more time?
**[15:37] ---**
I don't think we've got the time.
**[15:41] ---**
What do I do, Rin-chan?
**[15:43] ---**
I don't know, but let's at least
try to practice along with the dancing.
**[15:55] ---**
Excuse me! Can you up
the volume on my speakers?
**[16:03] ---**
Somehow I'm just not hungry.
**[16:07] ---**
Yeah.
**[16:13] ---**
Here's your change!
**[16:17] ---**
This is it!
**[16:19] ---**
Here? I wanted to be closer!
**[16:22] ---**
But you can see
a long way from here!
**[16:27] ---**
Right?
**[16:28] ---**
Oh, yeah.
**[16:33] ---**
This place holds a lot
of people, doesn't it?
**[16:41] ---**
Let's see what you do, nya.
**[16:44] ---**
Vse v porjadke...
**[16:56] ---**
Here we go!
**[16:58] ---**
Yeah!
**[17:03] ---**
I'm getting nervous.
**[17:05] ---**
It's starting!
**[17:06] ---**
The ball begins at last!
**[17:28] ---**
I-It's started, huh, Mio-chan?
**[17:35] ---**
Mio-chan?
**[17:36] ---**
Mio?
**[17:39] ---**
You've been really quiet
for a while. You okay?
**[17:43] ---**
Have I?
**[17:50] ---**
Okay, get ready.
**[17:52] ---**
A-Already?
**[17:53] ---**
Yeah. Thanks.
**[18:05] ---**
Let's go.
**[18:07] ---**
Y-Y-Yeah.
**[18:10] ---**
You too, Uzuki.
**[18:12] ---**
Right.
**[18:15] ---**
It's okay. It'll go fine.
**[18:18] ---**
Right!
**[18:19] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:22] ---**
Okay, let's go then!
**[18:24] ---**
Yeah!
**[18:25] ---**
Everyone!
**[18:27] ---**
How you doing? Feeling good?
**[18:30] ---**
Decided on a chant yet?
**[18:32] ---**
A-A chant?
**[18:34] ---**
You should have one.
**[18:36] ---**
Why not your favorite food? Mine
would be "Steaming! Hot! Rice!"
**[18:45] ---**
Ch-Chocolate!
**[18:48] ---**
P-Prosciutto e melone!
**[18:50] ---**
Fried chicken!
**[18:53] ---**
Rock, paper, scissors!
**[18:57] ---**
Okay! Let's go have fun!
**[19:02] ---**
Everybody's ready!
**[19:08] ---**
Here we go!
**[19:10] ---**
Five seconds! Four! Three!
**[19:13] ---**
Fri! Ed! Chicken!
**[19:32] ---**
TOKIMEKI ESCALATE
**[19:34] ---**
Tokimeki keeps on escalating
**[19:37] ---**
I'm in a love mode that pops like cider
**[19:41] ---**
I share my heart with you without
decorating it, so look at the real me
**[19:55] ---**
Sometimes I want to forget about wanting
to show off or pretend to be an adult
**[20:02] ---**
I want to do all kinds of new things
with you, like letting you spoil me
**[20:08] ---**
When I'm doing my best
alone under a dark sky
**[20:15] ---**
You are the first star of
the night, shining in my heart
**[20:22] ---**
Dokidoki escalating forever
**[20:25] ---**
The road to love feels like a maze
**[20:29] ---**
I share my heart with you without
decorating it, so look at the real me
**[20:38] ---**
Keep looking at me
**[20:42] ---**
T! O! K!
**[20:48] ---**
Tokimeki!
**[20:49] ---**
M! E! K!
**[20:54] ---**
Tokimeki!
**[21:04] ---**
Thanks, everybody!
**[21:09] ---**
By the way, about
today's backup dancers...
**[21:13] ---**
They're still new, but I invited
them to come on stage!
**[21:20] ---**
Let's ask them what they thought.
**[21:23] ---**
Well?
**[21:27] ---**
Um...
**[21:36] ---**
It was wonderful!
**[21:46] ---**
The program's all done!
**[21:48] ---**
Good work!
**[21:56] ---**
Good job!
**[21:58] ---**
That was a great first time!
Guess I was right about you!
**[22:02] ---**
Thank you!
**[22:04] ---**
Thanks, Mika-nee!
**[22:06] ---**
Thank you.
**[22:10] ---**
Good work.
**[22:11] ---**
The concert hall was really fired up!
**[22:14] ---**
A great first concert, huh?
**[22:17] ---**
I hope we can be
together for the next concert.
**[22:25] ---**
Good job.
**[22:28] ---**
Producer-san! Um... thank you...
**[22:33] ---**
Thank you for letting
us be on stage today!
**[22:39] ---**
It was a good concert.
**[22:44] ---**
Mio-chan!
**[22:47] ---**
Rin-chan!
**[22:48] ---**
Shimamu...
**[22:51] ---**
Shiburin!
**[22:52] ---**
We did it! Our first
concert was a success!
**[22:56] ---**
It was all so sparkly!
Idols are wonderful!
**[23:01] ---**
Right?
**[23:02] ---**
Right, Rin-chan?
**[23:05] ---**
Yeah.
**[23:09] ---**
Good work today.
**[23:12] ---**
I hope you'll apply
what you've learned here today.
**[23:16] ---**
Right!
**[23:17] ---**
It was a wonderful concert.
**[23:20] ---**
I hope the staff and performers
will keep the success in mind
**[23:24] ---**
as we head towards our next concert.
**[23:28] ---**
- You did okay––
- You shone so much!
**[23:31] ---**
You'll be in the next one?
**[23:33] ---**
I want in!
**[23:34] ---**
I want to be on stage too, nya!
**[23:43] ---**
Is this really real?
**[23:48] ---**
It was like a dream, wasn't it?
**[23:51] ---**
Yeah.
**[23:56] ---**

**[00:05] ---**
"I want you three to make a video."
**[00:12] ---**
What kind of video?
**[00:14] ---**
"A PR video for the Cinderella Project.
**[00:18] ---**
From here on, you three
will make your world debut!"
**[00:23] ---**
Um, he didn't say that.
**[00:26] ---**
Never mind! You're supposed
to get into this stuff.
**[00:31] ---**
And so, this is the first PR clip!
**[00:34] ---**
Let's start with unannounced
visits to our fellow idols!
**[00:39] ---**
Check out the passionate
spirit of future shining idols!
**[02:14] ---**
EPISODE 4
**[02:21] ---**
Shimamu!
**[02:22] ---**
Shouldn't you make
some kind of comment?
**[02:26] ---**
Um... So this is
the Cinderella Project room.
**[02:33] ---**
Should we film the room too?
**[02:36] ---**
Somebody's here already!
**[02:41] ---**
Morning...
**[02:42] ---**
The first idol is Miku, nyan!
**[02:49] ---**
What are you filming?
**[02:53] ---**
Got you off guard, Miku, nyan!
**[02:56] ---**
This is PR footage
the producer told us to get.
**[03:04] ---**
She became a cat.
**[03:06] ---**
You always have those?
**[03:08] ---**
Of course! I come prepared
so I can work anytime, nya!
**[03:13] ---**
You're serious?
**[03:15] ---**
To the one watching this,
Miku Maekawa always welcomes work, nya.
**[03:20] ---**
I'll work hard like a cat,
so please support me, nyan.
**[03:24] ---**
Okay, that's good.
**[03:27] ---**
I guess this
is what we should do.
**[03:30] ---**
How much do we
need for each person?
**[03:33] ---**
That's all?
**[03:35] ---**
That wasn't nearly enough
for me to show my charm!
**[03:39] ---**
The camera was still on.
**[03:42] ---**
I've got a lesson to go to
so I can perform well for you, nya!
**[03:52] ---**
Here we are in the lesson area!
Without any further ado, let's go!
**[03:58] ---**
How was that? I did it, right?
**[04:00] ---**
Not bad!
**[04:02] ---**
I think you make points
at a time like this with upturned eyes.
**[04:06] ---**
Upturned eyes...
**[04:08] ---**
Like this?
**[04:10] ---**
Also, with a pose
like this, for example.
**[04:16] ---**
What are you doing, nya?
Stop the camera, nya!
**[04:19] ---**
O-Okay.
**[04:20] ---**
Rika-chan! What are
you teaching Miria-chan?
**[04:24] ---**
I think it would go over well...
**[04:28] ---**
Forget it, nya!
**[04:30] ---**
A camera! Are you filming?
**[04:33] ---**
I was wondering about that too.
**[04:37] ---**
Listen to me, nya!
**[04:39] ---**
We're making a PR video.
**[04:42] ---**
This is a filming day?
**[04:43] ---**
Hey, what should I
do for a PR video?
**[04:47] ---**
You don't know?
**[04:49] ---**
I'll give you an example.
**[04:54] ---**
I can do that!
**[04:56] ---**
Nice!
**[04:58] ---**
That's not what we want.
**[04:59] ---**
Why not?
**[05:02] ---**
That's too soon for children, nya!
Do a cute cat pose instead!
**[05:07] ---**
That's kind of childish.
Isn't this better?
**[05:11] ---**
Lion. Roar!
**[05:13] ---**
Y-You're stronger than a cat.
**[05:16] ---**
Want to sell that?
**[05:17] ---**
I'm the only cat around here, nya!
**[05:22] ---**
Then...
**[05:24] ---**
...I'm like a big sister!
**[05:27] ---**
Okay, start!
**[05:28] ---**
Throbbing heart escalates to no end
**[05:32] ---**
- Love mode as fizzy as cider
- Great! I wanna try!
**[05:35] ---**
That's Mika-chan's song, right?
**[05:39] ---**
I'll do the next one.
**[05:42] ---**
- How was that?
- Ta-da!
**[05:45] ---**
Hey, you're ruining my moment!
**[05:47] ---**
I can dance too,
so put me in lots of concerts!
**[05:51] ---**
I wanna have a concert too!
**[05:55] ---**
I can't film when you're that close!
**[05:57] ---**
Um, let's start with Rika-chan.
**[06:01] ---**
Three... two... one!
**[06:04] ---**
I'm Rika Jougasaki!
My dream's to be like my big sis.
**[06:09] ---**
Also, I like collecting stickers,
and I'm good at finding rare insects.
**[06:14] ---**
Hello! I'm Miria Akagi!
**[06:17] ---**
I like dancing, wearing cute costumes,
and um, I wanna do all kinds of things!
**[06:24] ---**
Sheesh! She said one at a time!
**[06:28] ---**
Cut it out, you two!
**[06:30] ---**
I still have more to say!
**[06:32] ---**
Me too! Me too!
**[06:34] ---**
That's dangerous.
Stop the camera.
**[06:37] ---**
One at a time! Line up over there!
**[06:40] ---**
Whew, young people are amazing.
Kid power is a scary thing.
**[06:45] ---**
Mio, you sound like an old person.
**[06:49] ---**
Where shall we go next?
**[06:51] ---**
Let's go somewhere we haven't been.
**[06:53] ---**
H-Help me...
**[06:56] ---**
I think Anzu-chan's next...
**[07:04] ---**
Whoa.
**[07:06] ---**
A giant monster?
**[07:10] ---**
Oh, it's just Kirarin!
**[07:12] ---**
Y-You surprised me.
**[07:15] ---**
Sorry! We're helping make a movie,
and I'm carrying Anzu-chan there.
**[07:22] ---**
I said I don't want to work...
**[07:26] ---**
That won't do! Work's important.
**[07:30] ---**
There's all kinds of work, huh?
**[07:33] ---**
Wanna try it, Rin-chan?
**[07:35] ---**
Rin-chan in a monster suit...
**[07:39] ---**
I can't imagine it!
**[07:41] ---**
She was just asking!
**[07:43] ---**
I'm sure you'd be cute!
**[07:43] ---**
BUTTERFLYRA
**[07:48] ---**
I'm surprised you'd wear that.
**[07:50] ---**
It's a lot of fun!
Giant monsters are cute!
**[07:55] ---**
Forget cute. I'd rather
have work that earns you royalties!
**[08:00] ---**
Do happy-happy work with me!
**[08:03] ---**
Say, how about expressing
those thoughts on camera?
**[08:09] ---**
Can I start?
**[08:13] ---**
Okay!
**[08:16] ---**
I want to make everybody happy-happy!
**[08:20] ---**
So please give me a lot of work!
**[08:25] ---**
Now you, Anzu-chan!
**[08:27] ---**
Huh?
**[08:29] ---**
What the? Anzu-chan!
**[08:32] ---**
You can't make me work!
**[08:35] ---**
Wait, Anzu-chan!
**[08:38] ---**
Kirari Giant Monster Dash!
**[08:41] ---**
Whoa...
**[08:43] ---**
We didn't get Anzu-chan...
**[08:47] ---**
We can film her later.
**[08:49] ---**
Well, should we think of our next idea?
**[08:56] ---**
Are you hungry?
**[09:00] ---**
Then why don't we
take a break at the cafe?
**[09:07] ---**
I'm Kanako Mimura.
**[09:11] ---**
Right now, Chieri-chan
and I are having tea.
**[09:15] ---**
Today's lunch...
**[09:17] ---**
ta-da.
**[09:19] ---**
My hobby is making sweets,
so I baked up some cookies.
**[09:25] ---**
- They smell great!
- Let me have one!
**[09:29] ---**
Here.
**[09:34] ---**
Delicious!
**[09:35] ---**
There's tea too.
**[09:38] ---**
Thanks! You're so thoughtful!
**[09:41] ---**
Have a muffin too.
**[09:44] ---**
Thank you!
**[09:45] ---**
T-Thank you.
**[09:47] ---**
It's so peaceful...
**[09:50] ---**
Pure bliss...
**[09:53] ---**
Delicious...
**[09:56] ---**
It's tasty when we
eat together, right?
**[09:59] ---**
Isn't it hard making sweets?
**[10:02] ---**
Not at all. I enjoy it, and I'm
able to chat with everyone.
**[10:07] ---**
I know what you
mean! It is fun, isn't it?
**[10:13] ---**
Hey...
**[10:16] ---**
Aren't we forgetting
what we came for?
**[10:20] ---**
I didn't forget!
**[10:22] ---**
I-I'm sorry!
Um, go ahead, Chieri-chan!
**[10:29] ---**
Um...
**[10:31] ---**
I'm Chieri... Ogata.
**[10:33] ---**
I'm a second-year
high school... student. Um, I...
**[10:38] ---**
She prepared notes.
**[10:40] ---**
Chieri-chan!
**[10:41] ---**
Look right at the camera!
**[10:43] ---**
O-Okay.
**[10:48] ---**
- Wait!
- Hold on a sec!
**[10:53] ---**
I lost my notes...
**[10:56] ---**
Chieri-chan, at times like these,
sweets will cheer you up. Right?
**[11:02] ---**
Clovers.
**[11:06] ---**
Maybe I'll get lucky.
**[11:10] ---**
I caught your
beautiful smile, Chieri-chan.
**[11:14] ---**
She was filming.
**[11:17] ---**
All right...
**[11:19] ---**
Come to think of it...
**[11:22] ---**
Ranko-chan wanted
me to give this to you.
**[11:25] ---**
A message card?
**[11:28] ---**
What's it say?
**[11:29] ---**
"When the angel's voice echoes at dusk,
**[11:33] ---**
I'll be waiting in front
of the sacred fountain.
**[11:36] ---**
As an offering to me,
bring a device that catches souls.
**[11:42] ---**
Ranko Kanzaki."
**[11:46] ---**
What's "when the angel's
voice echoes" mean?
**[11:50] ---**
"Sacred fountain" is a place, right?
**[11:53] ---**
And what was that about a device?
**[11:57] ---**
This message is full of riddles.
**[12:00] ---**
- So today's lesson...
- Next target sighted!
**[12:03] ---**
Mio-chan? But Ranko-chan's note...
**[12:06] ---**
Later for that!
**[12:07] ---**
Unannounced interview!
**[12:10] ---**
I'm Minami Nitta, and I'm in college.
It would be a pleasure to work for you.
**[12:18] ---**
Menâ zovut Anastasiâ.
**[12:21] ---**
My name is Anastasia.
**[12:27] ---**
Not satisfied?
**[12:29] ---**
They were both lovely,
**[12:31] ---**
but I wanted them to act more
surprised, like, "What the heck?"
**[12:41] ---**
Um... Sorry?
**[12:45] ---**
What's that?
**[12:47] ---**
This? It's my lacrosse racket.
**[12:50] ---**
I've got an idea!
**[12:53] ---**
Minami! Nitta!
I'm a college student!
**[12:57] ---**
It's a pleasure to work for you!
**[12:58] ---**
That's the stuff!
**[13:00] ---**
I'm calling it "air lacrosse"!
**[13:03] ---**
Say, is this really PR?
**[13:08] ---**
Of course!
**[13:09] ---**
With this, the project will skyrocket
to popularity, no two ways about it!
**[13:16] ---**
Then I'm ready!
**[13:18] ---**
Anya-chan, too!
Shake your pom-poms!
**[13:22] ---**
Zaral udači, Minami.
**[13:25] ---**
I play lacrosse at school!
**[13:28] ---**
And I love challenging
myself with new things!
**[13:32] ---**
That's great!
**[13:33] ---**
Now go ahead, Anya-chan!
**[13:36] ---**
I'm Anastasia. Papa is Russian,
and Mama is Japanese.
**[13:41] ---**
I like looking at the stars.
**[13:45] ---**
Okay!
**[13:47] ---**
You both had great visuals!
**[13:49] ---**
A-All of those people...
**[13:52] ---**
Minami, are you okay?
**[13:54] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[13:56] ---**
But I didn't think I'd
be doing something like this...
**[14:00] ---**
You looked really cool!
**[14:03] ---**
Yes. Idols can do many things.
They are very fantastic.
**[14:08] ---**
That's right. I think so too.
**[14:13] ---**
You all worked
very hard for that concert.
**[14:16] ---**
And so I can work
very hard to be an idol.
**[14:24] ---**
That...
**[14:26] ---**
Minamin, could we get some advice?
**[14:33] ---**
It is now 5:00.
**[14:35] ---**
Time for all good
children to come home.
**[14:39] ---**
Be careful of cars
on the way home.
**[14:43] ---**
You came...
**[14:46] ---**
Minamin was right!
**[14:48] ---**
It is a fountain.
**[14:51] ---**
And that's the "angel's voice"?
**[14:54] ---**
Guided by fate,
I set foot in this world.
**[14:59] ---**
My name is Ranko Kanzaki.
As a chosen idol, the final curtain...
**[15:04] ---**
H-Hold on!
**[15:06] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[15:07] ---**
Um, about
"a device that catches souls"...
**[15:12] ---**
Is this okay?
**[15:15] ---**
And this.
**[15:17] ---**
I don't think it's
what you were looking for, but...
**[15:20] ---**
You already have the device.
**[15:25] ---**
Could you mean the camera?
**[15:28] ---**
Indeed! Now, confine my soul!
**[15:34] ---**
O-Okay...
**[15:38] ---**
At dusk, with crimson eyes,
I lament for this world.
**[15:44] ---**
The time has come.
**[15:45] ---**
Now, let us bring
about the world's demise toge––
**[15:49] ---**
Cut, cut!
**[15:51] ---**
Ranran, you use hard words!
**[15:54] ---**
R-Ranran?
**[15:56] ---**
You'll have to
explain it to me later!
**[15:59] ---**
Saying my name
in an unfamiliar way...
**[16:02] ---**
You are a daring woman.
**[16:08] ---**
Let us end this evening's revelry here.
**[16:11] ---**
It is time to evolve yet again!
Be swallowed by darkness!
**[16:22] ---**
We put in a full day!
Shimamu, catch!
**[16:27] ---**
Let's take a little break.
**[16:29] ---**
Um, who do we still have to film?
**[16:33] ---**
Riina and Anzu, right?
**[16:38] ---**
There's Riina-chan!
**[16:39] ---**
Yeah, but it looks like
she's listening to music.
**[16:44] ---**
She might not want to be disturbed.
**[16:46] ---**
Should we get her later?
**[16:49] ---**
That's it.
**[16:50] ---**
That was great rock.
**[16:54] ---**
Yeah, it's gotta be rock.
**[16:58] ---**
Riina-chan!
We're making a PR video!
**[17:02] ---**
I remember hearing about that.
**[17:05] ---**
What were you doing, Riina-chan?
**[17:09] ---**
Without meaning to,
I lost myself in rock music.
**[17:13] ---**
I guess that's the rock-idol saga.
**[17:17] ---**
That's cool!
**[17:20] ---**
Well, I'll be a star once I make my
debut, so this video will be a treasure.
**[17:29] ---**
Those are bold words.
**[17:31] ---**
I aim to be a cool rock idol.
**[17:34] ---**
With sold-out concerts at the Budokan.
**[17:37] ---**
My concerts will be legendary!
**[17:41] ---**
W-Well, that's the idea...
**[17:45] ---**
So it might be a good idea
to keep an eye on me.
**[17:49] ---**
Can you recommend a song?
**[17:52] ---**
Y-You don't really
ask someone about rock.
**[17:58] ---**
That's right! If you
think it's rock, it's rock!
**[18:03] ---**
What is it?
**[18:05] ---**
Anzu-chan! Jeez!
**[18:09] ---**
Where are you? Miria-chan helped
me with the movie shoot instead.
**[18:16] ---**
It was fun!
**[18:19] ---**
You still haven't
found her? I mean...
**[18:23] ---**
Anzu-chan is the last
person we need to film.
**[18:27] ---**
If we don't find her fast,
we won't be done today.
**[18:31] ---**
All right! Since it's gone this far...
**[18:35] ---**
The ultimate weapon!
**[18:38] ---**
Super Happy-Happy Candy Shower!
**[18:45] ---**
Candy!
**[18:49] ---**
You were here!
**[18:50] ---**
An-zu-chan!
**[18:53] ---**
Captured!
**[18:54] ---**
S-Shoot!
**[18:57] ---**
Let's try doing
the PR one more time.
**[19:01] ---**
I don't wanna work...
**[19:04] ---**
Just try!
**[19:06] ---**
Easy for you to say...
**[19:09] ---**
I want eight days off a week.
The shop is closed for today.
**[19:15] ---**
That won't do for PR, right?
**[19:19] ---**
If you make trouble,
you're gonna get a scolding.
**[19:23] ---**
Everyone wants to see you, Anzu-chan.
**[19:27] ---**
Well, I did take the candy...
**[19:29] ---**
Thank you!
**[19:31] ---**
Then we'll finally have everyone.
**[19:34] ---**
I think we'll be done.
**[19:36] ---**
Since you're gonna
film me, I should dress fancy.
**[19:40] ---**
After all, I am an idol. I'll change,
so leave me alone a minute.
**[19:45] ---**
Oh, you're so bashful!
**[19:47] ---**
Why not use the reception room?
**[19:49] ---**
Don't sweat things.
**[19:51] ---**
Okay, we'll wait out...
**[19:56] ---**
You fell for it! I'm occupying this
room now! I won't set one foot out!
**[20:02] ---**
- H-Hey! Let us film you!
- Anzu-chan?
**[20:05] ---**
Is this hide-and-seek?
**[20:07] ---**
Maybe we should borrow the key...
**[20:09] ---**
Anzu, I have more yummy candy!
**[20:13] ---**
What are you all doing?
**[20:14] ---**
We can't get in?
**[20:16] ---**
O-Oh no, nya! My bag's in there,
nya! I can't go home without it, nya!
**[20:22] ---**
N-Neither can I...
**[20:23] ---**
Anzu-chan, please come out!
**[20:26] ---**
There's no point resisting!
Stop this useless resistance...
**[20:30] ---**
I wonder if we'll
be able to finish this today.
**[20:37] ---**
And action!
**[20:39] ---**
Cin...
**[20:39] ---**
- ...der...
- ...ella!
**[20:41] ---**
- Pro...
- ...ject.
**[20:43] ---**
- When...
- ...you...
**[20:45] ---**
- ...think...
- ...of...
**[20:47] ---**
- ...idols...
- ...please...
**[20:50] ---**
- ...think...
- ...of...
**[20:51] ---**
...us!
**[21:00] ---**
We did it!
**[21:01] ---**
We finished!
**[21:03] ---**
Good work.
**[21:04] ---**
Huh? What about us?
**[21:11] ---**
W-What now?
**[21:13] ---**
We need to get that back!
**[21:14] ---**
We totally forgot ourselves!
**[21:17] ---**
Producer-san,
the chief wants to talk to you.
**[21:35] ---**
Good job filming the PR video.
**[21:38] ---**
Henceforth...
**[21:41] ---**
we're going to use it.
**[21:48] ---**
I have an announcement
for all of you today.
**[21:52] ---**
M-Maybe a job, nya?
**[21:55] ---**
That's great!
**[21:56] ---**
Hey, it's for me, right?
**[21:58] ---**
No, nya! Gotta be for me, nya!
**[22:01] ---**
Maybe my rock is
getting recognition already.
**[22:05] ---**
But isn't that fast? We just finished.
**[22:08] ---**
That's true.
**[22:10] ---**
So what's the announcement?
**[22:16] ---**
First, Minami Nitta-san
and Anastasia-san, you two.
**[22:22] ---**
Then Uzuki Shimamura-san...
**[22:25] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[22:26] ---**
...Rin Shibuya-san...
**[22:29] ---**
...and Mio Honda-san, you three.
**[22:31] ---**
As units for this project,
**[22:35] ---**
you're going
to make your CD debut.
**[22:39] ---**
CD...
**[22:40] ---**
...debut?
**[23:55] ---**

**[00:00] ---**
CD debut?
**[00:03] ---**
Yes. You two and you three will
make your CD debut as separate units.
**[00:12] ---**
What should I do? What should I do?
**[00:13] ---**
It's a CD! A CD! Shiburin! Shimamu!
**[00:21] ---**
Congratulations!
**[00:23] ---**
That's fantastic! A CD debut!
**[00:27] ---**
What to do? It's so sudden...
**[00:30] ---**
CD?
**[00:31] ---**
No fair! What about me?
I wanna put out a CD too!
**[00:40] ---**
T-That's right!
What about the rest of us, nya?
**[00:44] ---**
Other plans are pending.
**[02:17] ---**
EPISODE 5
**[02:17] ---**
Uzuki, there's cake from yesterday.
**[02:21] ---**
I'll have some!
**[02:25] ---**
Here. Have the whole thing.
**[02:27] ---**
Sure!
**[02:35] ---**
CONGRATS ON YOUR CD
**[02:37] ---**
I'll see you later, Hanako.
**[02:41] ---**
By the way...
**[02:43] ---**
I may not be able to help
out at the store much more.
**[02:48] ---**
I'm going to make my CD debut.
**[02:51] ---**
You serious?
**[02:53] ---**
Wow! I'll go to your concert!
**[02:55] ---**
Thanks! Dunno yet if we'll
have a concert though.
**[02:59] ---**
Of course you will!
**[03:00] ---**
Why don't we make a banner?
**[03:02] ---**
Nice! Let's make a huge one!
**[03:05] ---**
It's not for you to make!
**[03:07] ---**
Oops.
**[03:08] ---**
Oh, Mio!
**[03:09] ---**
Nitta-san and Anastasia-san aside,
**[03:12] ---**
you put them in a
real sink-or-swim situation.
**[03:16] ---**
It may be a little soon,
**[03:19] ---**
but it's a chance for perfect
songs to be written for them.
**[03:23] ---**
You're lucky the person
has time to write songs for this.
**[03:27] ---**
Those three
were the right choice.
**[03:30] ---**
Yes. And they've gained
experience by being on stage already,
**[03:35] ---**
so the timing just felt right.
**[03:38] ---**
You'll be even busier.
**[03:39] ---**
CINDERELLA PROJECT UNIT PLAN
TOP SECRET
**[03:40] ---**
Recording, a campaign, and concerts...
**[03:43] ---**
The agency has great expectations.
**[03:46] ---**
Right.
**[03:49] ---**
A concert?
**[03:50] ---**
We get to do that?
**[03:52] ---**
Yes, though it's a miniconcert
to promote your CD.
**[03:56] ---**
Wow! A concert!
**[03:57] ---**
Yes! I can't wait!
**[04:00] ---**
What kind of concert will it be?
**[04:01] ---**
I'll do my best!
**[04:07] ---**
Are the songs already done?
**[04:09] ---**
No, we'll think about that next...
**[04:10] ---**
Wait a minute, nya!
**[04:13] ---**
We don't accept
newcomers debuting first, nya!
**[04:17] ---**
Have a showdown with us, nya!
**[04:18] ---**
Nya!
**[04:24] ---**
I finally won, nya!
**[04:26] ---**
Yay! Yay!
**[04:29] ---**
You're really good at this.
**[04:31] ---**
Why'd I have to play?
**[04:33] ---**
I'll try harder.
**[04:37] ---**
Producer, I won, so I want you
to okay my CD debut, nya!
**[04:41] ---**
Me too!
**[04:43] ---**
I wanna sing
a lot of cute songs!
**[04:46] ---**
Um...
**[04:48] ---**
There you are! Your break is over!
**[04:51] ---**
- S-Sorry!
- Come on!
**[04:53] ---**
I'll remember this, nya!
**[04:54] ---**
But we won!
**[04:55] ---**
See you later, nya!
**[04:58] ---**
We'll beat you next time!
**[05:07] ---**
Excuse me.
**[05:14] ---**
Nice to meet you. I'm the trainer
in charge of voice lessons.
**[05:19] ---**
One of three sisters?
**[05:21] ---**
If it happens twice,
it'll happen a third time.
**[05:24] ---**
I look forward to working together.
**[05:26] ---**
We do too!
**[05:28] ---**
To start, I'd like you each to sing.
**[05:30] ---**
O-Okay.
**[05:33] ---**
Nothing but the basics, nya...
**[05:35] ---**
Let's challenge them again.
**[05:38] ---**
Let's play cards!
**[05:40] ---**
This is no game.
**[05:43] ---**
It's a serious showdown for
our existence as idols.
**[05:45] ---**
Existence as idols?
**[05:47] ---**
You haven't even done anything
yet that's idol-like.
**[05:51] ---**
You challenged them again?
**[05:53] ---**
And we won, nya!
**[05:54] ---**
But you lost.
**[05:56] ---**
We did not lose, nya!
**[05:58] ---**
D-Don't fight...
**[06:00] ---**
Don't all of you want to put out a CD?
**[06:08] ---**
Cool, very cool!
**[06:09] ---**
Yes!
**[06:10] ---**
I'm surprised, since I didn't
think our debut song would be this cool.
**[06:16] ---**
Meteor...
**[06:18] ---**
The song is like a shooting star.
**[06:21] ---**
Yeah, it is like that.
**[06:25] ---**
Please, nya!
**[06:26] ---**
Nya!
**[06:27] ---**
All right, Miku, nyan! Payback...
**[06:30] ---**
- Excuse us. On break?
- Hi.
**[06:32] ---**
Six of you?
Wait, we've only got five!
**[06:36] ---**
Relax, nya.
**[06:37] ---**
Minami-chan, Anya-chan,
we've come to negotiate, nya!
**[06:52] ---**
Welcome to our concert, nyan!
**[06:54] ---**
Minami, nyan!
**[06:56] ---**
Um... You can
squish me all you like, nya!
**[07:02] ---**
Anyan!
**[07:03] ---**
My pads feel good... nya?
**[07:06] ---**
How's that?
**[07:07] ---**
The Nyan-nyan unit's cute, right?
**[07:10] ---**
Too pushy.
**[07:11] ---**
That's terrible, nya!
**[07:13] ---**
Minami-san and Anastasia
are more cool than cute.
**[07:17] ---**
I think you should go with rock!
**[07:21] ---**
Don't you think this is better?
**[07:24] ---**
Hey, want to come over
and look at my cool stickers?
**[07:28] ---**
I have cute stickers too.
**[07:29] ---**
Something, something, something...
**[07:32] ---**
What's with the "something"?
**[07:35] ---**
I don't know Russian.
**[07:36] ---**
You aren't a unit to begin with.
**[07:39] ---**
You're not in a band either!
**[07:42] ---**
You just dissed rock!
**[07:44] ---**
Go play air guitar by yourself, nya.
**[07:46] ---**
What? Wanna have a showdown?
**[07:50] ---**
What's going on?
**[07:51] ---**
Miku-chan thinks there's room for
one more person in Minami-san's unit.
**[07:57] ---**
Uzuki-chan's unit has three people,
but Minami-chan's has two!
**[08:02] ---**
Why not add one more?
Three people would be perfect!
**[08:06] ---**
You know, I wanna have a fun unit!
**[08:12] ---**
I think it is a good idea, but...
**[08:15] ---**
Um...
**[08:19] ---**
Nitta-san and Anastasia-san's
unit will remain at two people.
**[08:26] ---**
Sorry, but preparations
are already underway.
**[08:29] ---**
I don't believe this, nya...
**[08:32] ---**
Извините.
**[08:34] ---**
I am sorry. It is unfortunate.
**[08:37] ---**
Sorry.
**[08:38] ---**
That's okay.
**[08:50] ---**
And that's the schedule
for the release events.
**[08:55] ---**
Finally, I have a homework assignment.
**[08:57] ---**
Homework? Yuck!
**[09:00] ---**
It's important
homework for all three of you.
**[09:04] ---**
Please think of a name for your unit.
**[09:08] ---**
W-We're going to?
**[09:11] ---**
That's super important! What'll we do?
**[09:14] ---**
What kind of name is good?
**[09:16] ---**
One easy to remember, I think.
**[09:19] ---**
But any name that
would fit the three of you.
**[09:24] ---**
I have a question.
Why the three of us?
**[09:32] ---**
Shiburin, you don't wanna be with us?
**[09:35] ---**
That's not it.
**[09:36] ---**
Why were we chosen
and not Miku, for example?
**[09:42] ---**
It was an overall judgment.
**[09:46] ---**
I don't really understand...
**[09:48] ---**
Singing, dancing, guts?
**[09:51] ---**
Timing and balance too.
**[09:54] ---**
By balance, you mean the members?
**[09:56] ---**
I see. Space cadet,
straight man, natural airhead.
**[10:00] ---**
I'm the airhead?
**[10:02] ---**
Oh? Not realizing it makes it worse!
**[10:05] ---**
I'm not, Mio-chan!
**[10:07] ---**
A natural airhead never
thinks she's an airhead!
**[10:13] ---**
Hello. Everything going smoothly?
**[10:16] ---**
More or less as we decided.
**[10:19] ---**
And those girls?
**[10:22] ---**
Yes. They're doing their best.
**[10:25] ---**
Everything hangs on you.
**[10:31] ---**
How about Milk Tea?
**[10:33] ---**
That's cute!
**[10:35] ---**
It is, but I don't know if
it's right for our unit name.
**[10:39] ---**
Got it. Let's add "ginger."
**[10:41] ---**
Ginger Milk Tea! Delicious!
**[10:44] ---**
Do you have an idea, Mio?
**[10:48] ---**
I thought of several actually.
**[10:50] ---**
Look at that list!
**[10:53] ---**
Which is your favorite?
**[10:54] ---**
Fried Chicken!
**[10:56] ---**
Veto.
**[10:57] ---**
How could you? That meat
saved me from that jam.
**[11:01] ---**
What kind of name
do you think is good?
**[11:09] ---**
Princess Blue?
**[11:12] ---**
Princess Blue!
**[11:15] ---**
A princess?
**[11:17] ---**
Not me! That's what my dad...
**[11:22] ---**
Hello!
**[11:24] ---**
Hello!
**[11:30] ---**
Hello.
**[11:34] ---**
I'm tapped.
**[11:35] ---**
Nothing's coming to mind...
**[11:38] ---**
There's still time.
**[11:40] ---**
If you don't mind,
could you think of ideas?
**[11:44] ---**
Please.
**[11:46] ---**
All right.
**[11:50] ---**
Great! Just like that.
**[11:52] ---**
And smile! Now move!
**[11:56] ---**
Makeup coming in!
**[11:58] ---**
I worked up a sweat.
**[12:02] ---**
Hey, Minami-chan and
Anastasia are recording today.
**[12:07] ---**
Lucky! I wanna sing too!
**[12:10] ---**
I'm gonna tell the
producer I want a song!
**[12:14] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:15] ---**
He'll just end up telling
you it's being considered.
**[12:19] ---**
Then what should I do?
**[12:26] ---**
When at crosswalks,
look right, look left,
**[12:30] ---**
and then right once
more before crossing!
**[12:34] ---**
When you get in cars,
put the seat belt on correctly.
**[12:37] ---**
If you don't, we'll arrest you!
**[12:41] ---**
Psychic Arrest!
**[12:44] ---**
Hey, Yuko-chan!
**[12:46] ---**
Your body is the
crime here, Shizuku-chan.
**[12:53] ---**
I was so nervous.
**[12:55] ---**
Our "big sisters"
were like real deals.
**[12:57] ---**
I hear Sanae-san
is a former police officer.
**[13:01] ---**
Wow!
**[13:02] ---**
What are you doing?
**[13:05] ---**
Imagining how
a CD debut would feel.
**[13:08] ---**
The producer's busy,
so we're thinking for him, nya.
**[13:13] ---**
Finished! Here's my debut proposal, nya!
**[13:17] ---**
Cute outfit, cute song, and doing
a cute dance with cute cats!
**[13:21] ---**
Of course, the call is... "nya!"
**[13:26] ---**
Cute...
**[13:27] ---**
It's more like a petting
event than a concert? Only cats...
**[13:31] ---**
Debut proposal, huh?
Maybe I'll think of one too.
**[13:37] ---**
I'll think of one too!
**[13:40] ---**
Kirari-chan...
**[13:41] ---**
Anzu-chan,
you skipped out on work again...
**[13:45] ---**
Now is the time
to seal away the grimoire!
**[13:52] ---**
What kind of proposal is yours?
**[13:54] ---**
All of us singing outside.
**[13:56] ---**
A cute concert, huh?
**[13:59] ---**
Mine's a guerrilla gig
in the middle of Shibuya!
**[14:03] ---**
Guerrilla gig?
**[14:04] ---**
I see your smile again and again
**[14:10] ---**
Starting to overflow
in the middle of time
**[14:15] ---**
That's your unit name?
**[14:17] ---**
Da. Yes.
**[14:21] ---**
We'll have a concert together, right?
**[14:24] ---**
Yeah. I'm glad we'll be together.
**[14:27] ---**
If it were just the
two of us...
**[14:30] ---**
you know?
**[14:32] ---**
You have nothing to worry about.
I'm sure the audience will love you.
**[14:38] ---**
Guess I'd do a
guerrilla rock gig at Budokan.
**[14:41] ---**
It's not guerrilla if you book it!
**[14:44] ---**
Copycat!
**[14:45] ---**
I didn't copy. It's Budokan.
**[14:48] ---**
Ranko-chan!
**[14:50] ---**
Are you done?
**[14:52] ---**
I-I would have a precious festival
with servants who share my soul.
**[14:58] ---**
I'd like the audience
to eat my homemade cookies.
**[15:02] ---**
That's sweet! I'm
sure they'd be pleased.
**[15:06] ---**
What kind of debut do you want?
**[15:09] ---**
I can't imagine...
Making my debut?
**[15:12] ---**
But I wish I could make even
one person happy, even just a little.
**[15:21] ---**
Is there some problem?
**[15:23] ---**
No. Nothing.
**[15:26] ---**
There's nothing,
and that kind of makes me worry.
**[15:30] ---**
Is that what you call confidence?
**[15:33] ---**
Yeah.
**[15:34] ---**
All we have are the nice song and
outfits the producer prepared for us.
**[15:40] ---**
We've never even been on stage.
**[15:46] ---**
Minami...
**[15:48] ---**
I have to hang tough, right?
I was chosen, so I have to do my best.
**[15:53] ---**
And I'll make my worldwide debut!
**[15:56] ---**
I'll take all Japan first, nya!
**[15:58] ---**
We can all play
tag and play with water...
**[16:03] ---**
Chocolate, cinnamon, and
strawberries... Cocoa-flavored too!
**[16:07] ---**
Can people reserve public parks?
**[16:10] ---**
I wanna wear a cute, frilly dress and
have all these dazzling lights on me,
**[16:17] ---**
and everyone will be happy-happy!
**[16:22] ---**
How about you, Anzu-chan?
**[16:23] ---**
I wanna sleep.
**[16:25] ---**
Producer!
**[16:27] ---**
Listen to this!
**[16:29] ---**
We brainstormed debut proposals! You
should give them serious consideration!
**[16:42] ---**
Thank you. I'll review these proposals.
**[16:47] ---**
But you probably
shouldn't get your hopes up.
**[16:53] ---**
Well, that didn't work...
**[16:55] ---**
I thought it was a good idea...
**[16:57] ---**
Soul salvation...
**[17:01] ---**
From his reaction, it looks
like we won't debut soon.
**[17:06] ---**
If we do our lessons and work hard,
we can make our debut soon. Right?
**[17:14] ---**
I won't give up! Since it's come
to this, I'll go on strike, nya!
**[17:21] ---**
Let's work hard on our lessons.
**[17:23] ---**
Yeah!
**[17:24] ---**
Right, I'll do my best.
**[17:26] ---**
Everyone!
**[17:30] ---**
Have you seen the producer?
**[17:35] ---**
We demand...
**[17:37] ---**
What is it again?
**[17:39] ---**
...eight days off a week!
**[17:41] ---**
Don't say what you please!
**[17:43] ---**
Anzu-chan! Miku-chan! Rika-chan!
**[17:48] ---**
Everyone...
**[17:50] ---**
Where's the producer?
**[17:52] ---**
In a meeting somewhere...
**[17:56] ---**
On strike again?
**[17:58] ---**
Cutting the enemy food
supply is basic strategy.
**[18:02] ---**
They'll be shocked when
they find out they can't eat.
**[18:06] ---**
Um, you're making a scene...
**[18:09] ---**
What's the order?
**[18:10] ---**
Um, an iced tea.
**[18:12] ---**
Okay!
**[18:17] ---**
Thank you!
**[18:18] ---**
Sure!
**[18:20] ---**
It's okay...
**[18:21] ---**
You guys are completely
surrounded! Peacefully surrender!
**[18:26] ---**
Forget it!
**[18:28] ---**
Your mom is crying!
**[18:30] ---**
Your big sister Mika is gonna cry too!
**[18:34] ---**
Then I'll stop.
**[18:35] ---**
Nya! Rika-chan!
**[18:38] ---**
We'll do our best then, nya!
**[18:40] ---**
For justice for us!
**[18:43] ---**
I want you to promise
that we'll make our debut, nya!
**[18:49] ---**
Then I quit too.
**[18:51] ---**
You too?
**[18:55] ---**
Miku-chan, stop this!
You're causing problems for everyone!
**[19:01] ---**
Let's talk to the
producer about our debut!
**[19:08] ---**
I did, nya.
**[19:12] ---**
Over and over.
But I never got a good answer.
**[19:15] ---**
Why not? Why is the answer no?
**[19:19] ---**
We're doing our best too, so why?
**[19:22] ---**
I was thrilled when I passed
the audition for the Cinderella Project.
**[19:28] ---**
I had faith that if I did my best
with the lessons and odd jobs,
**[19:32] ---**
I'd eventually be able
to make my debut.
**[19:36] ---**
But more and more,
I'm left behind... Left alone...
**[19:41] ---**
What am I doing wrong?
Should I work harder?
**[19:44] ---**
How much harder?
**[19:46] ---**
I have no idea!
**[19:49] ---**
But I don't want it to go on like this.
**[19:50] ---**
I wanna become an idol too.
I wanna make my debut!
**[20:02] ---**
I'm sorry, Maekawa-san!
**[20:07] ---**
We're going to have
all of you make your debut.
**[20:15] ---**
Really?
**[20:17] ---**
It wasn't set, so I couldn't say...
**[20:20] ---**
The first wave's Nitta-san and the others.
**[20:23] ---**
After that, we'll have the second and
third wave of units making their debut.
**[20:33] ---**
Producer...
**[20:38] ---**
Sheesh.
**[20:41] ---**
You should've said so before...
**[20:46] ---**
Yeah, really.
**[20:54] ---**
It's decided that
we'll make our debut?
**[20:57] ---**
Mayday! Mayday!
**[21:00] ---**
- Anzu-chan! Got you!
- Let me go!
**[21:04] ---**
I envy them their youth.
**[21:07] ---**
Let me rephrase! Since I still
have my youth! I'll be 17 forever!
**[21:14] ---**
Sorry for bailing.
**[21:16] ---**
That's okay. I was too
hasty about the whole thing.
**[21:20] ---**
Miku-chan, I don't want
things to go on as is either.
**[21:25] ---**
I'm not sure about your methods,
**[21:27] ---**
but it could qualify as rock.
**[21:31] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[21:35] ---**
You five!
**[21:37] ---**
We'll do our best to get
stronger till our debut day, nya!
**[21:42] ---**
So fight, nya!
**[21:46] ---**
Minami...
**[21:47] ---**
Right.
**[21:48] ---**
Let's do this!
**[21:50] ---**
Right!
**[21:51] ---**
Yeah.
**[21:54] ---**
Good! Nice and cheerful!
**[21:57] ---**
It's like,
"Hey, we're debuting!"
**[21:59] ---**
This "New Generations"...
**[22:03] ---**
It's your tentative unit name.
**[22:05] ---**
I needed to put something there...
**[22:08] ---**
What does it mean?
**[22:10] ---**
That a new age has begun for you.
**[22:16] ---**
That's cool!
**[22:17] ---**
I like it.
**[22:20] ---**
That strikes a chord.
That's our unit name, right?
**[22:24] ---**
Yes!
**[22:25] ---**
Sure.
**[22:27] ---**
Understood. Then your
unit name is New Generations.
**[22:33] ---**
Right!
**[22:34] ---**
Thank you!
**[22:36] ---**
I see. So our age
is about to begin.

EPISODE 6
**[02:05] ---**
Well, could each of you give
a comment about your CD debut?
**[02:11] ---**
S-Sure! I'm Uzuki Shimamura!
**[02:14] ---**
Um... anyway, I'll do my best!
**[02:19] ---**
I'm Rin Shibuya.
**[02:22] ---**
It still hasn't sunk in,
but I'll do my best.
**[02:26] ---**
I'm the leader, Mio Honda!
I want everyone to listen to our CD!
**[02:31] ---**
I wanna do lots of concerts, have
fan events, and go on TV music shows...
**[02:37] ---**
Variety shows would be fun too!
And dramas! And, and...
**[02:46] ---**
I was nervous...
**[02:47] ---**
What are you supposed
to say in interviews like that?
**[02:52] ---**
I wanted to say a lot more...
**[02:56] ---**
Actually, I think you said plenty...
**[02:59] ---**
And for all of us!
That's our leader.
**[03:02] ---**
Really? As leader, I thought
I should do my best to talk.
**[03:07] ---**
But wasn't it bland?
**[03:09] ---**
I pictured a press conference with all
these reporters and flashing cameras.
**[03:14] ---**
I know what you mean... But
maybe this is how first times go.
**[03:19] ---**
Maybe.
**[03:20] ---**
I wonder what Minamin
and Anya are saying?
**[03:23] ---**
Yes, there's pressure,
but I try to enjoy it.
**[03:27] ---**
I want the miniconcert
to live up to expectations.
**[03:31] ---**
Наши... With our songs, I want
to give the fans many dreams.
**[03:39] ---**
That's cool...
**[03:42] ---**
They're both cool.
**[03:44] ---**
So that's an adult's charm...
**[03:47] ---**
Lucky ducks!
Getting interviewed looks fun!
**[03:51] ---**
I'll casually grab a chance
to self-promote later, nya!
**[03:54] ---**
Um, let's go on to the next question...
**[03:58] ---**
Jeez, you guys are
so noisy that I can't hear!
**[04:03] ---**
You two came off great even
in front of a grown-up reporter!
**[04:08] ---**
Really, I was so nervous
my legs were shaking. Right?
**[04:12] ---**
Da. I had butterflies in my stomach...
**[04:15] ---**
I couldn't tell.
**[04:17] ---**
That is because we rehearsed a little.
**[04:20] ---**
Rehearsed?
**[04:22] ---**
Like, "If they
ask this, let's say this."
**[04:25] ---**
We wanted to express
our feelings clearly.
**[04:28] ---**
So that's it.
**[04:29] ---**
Maybe we should've done that.
**[04:32] ---**
Too late for that, but let's
give the miniconcert our all!
**[04:36] ---**
There you are.
**[04:37] ---**
Mika-nee!
**[04:39] ---**
Hi.
**[04:40] ---**
I heard your CD debut
is in the works. That's great.
**[04:45] ---**
Yes! Thank you!
**[04:48] ---**
And a release event. I'm happy
for you too, Minami, Anya-chan.
**[04:52] ---**
Thank you.
**[04:53] ---**
Spasiba.
**[04:55] ---**
You're gonna sing at the event
too, right? Taking lots of lessons?
**[05:01] ---**
Totally!
**[05:02] ---**
I thought you'd be nervous,
but you're surprisingly relaxed.
**[05:06] ---**
T-That's not...
**[05:08] ---**
You don't need to be nervous, Shimamu!
**[05:10] ---**
After all, we had the awesome
experience of being her back dancers!
**[05:15] ---**
I think we're doing
well with lessons...
**[05:18] ---**
Well, I think you can pull it off.
**[05:21] ---**
I know best how strong
you are at the real performance.
**[05:26] ---**
One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight!
**[05:29] ---**
That's right, Honda! Just like that!
**[05:32] ---**
Shibuya, make it bigger.
More dynamic!
**[05:36] ---**
Shimamura, you always
get stuck here! Careful!
**[05:39] ---**
Right!
**[05:44] ---**
She got angry a lot again. Guess
I'll have to practice even harder.
**[05:49] ---**
Yeah, let's do our best!
**[05:51] ---**
Good work. After you wipe the sweat
away, please go to the dressing room.
**[06:02] ---**
Nice!
**[06:04] ---**
Rin-chan, you look cute!
**[06:07] ---**
Hi!
**[06:09] ---**
Easier to move in than it looks.
**[06:11] ---**
Yes.
**[06:12] ---**
But I'm bad at dancing in heels,
so I have to get used to it.
**[06:17] ---**
True.
**[06:18] ---**
We're gonna wear these outfits
**[06:20] ---**
and go on stage again.
**[06:22] ---**
Just like that last time!
**[06:33] ---**
And this time,
the three of us will...
**[06:38] ---**
Beautiful!
**[06:39] ---**
Хорошо!
**[06:42] ---**
What do you think, Producer?
**[06:45] ---**
It suits you very well.
**[06:49] ---**
So beautiful!
**[06:51] ---**
Very nice!
**[06:54] ---**
It's a little embarrassing...
**[06:56] ---**
Am I okay?
**[06:59] ---**
It looks great on you.
**[07:00] ---**
Spasiba!
**[07:03] ---**
The miniconcert costumes are ready!
**[07:06] ---**
You all look adorable!
**[07:08] ---**
I'll bring treats when I go see it.
**[07:10] ---**
I'll see it too. The only thing I can
do is cheer you on, but do your best!
**[07:16] ---**
Count on it! As the project's
lead batter, we'll hit a home run!
**[07:22] ---**
I-I'll do my best!
**[07:26] ---**
Yes. Everything for that day
conforms to the timetable. Thank you.
**[07:32] ---**
Well?
**[07:33] ---**
Are preparations proceeding smoothly?
**[07:37] ---**
Yes.
**[07:38] ---**
Still, you managed
to secure a great venue.
**[07:42] ---**
It's an excellent stage
for newcomers' debut concerts.
**[07:46] ---**
I agree.
**[07:48] ---**
I hope this project becomes
a positive turning point for you too.
**[07:55] ---**
Right.
**[08:00] ---**
It's at 6:00! If you
don't come, you'll regret it!
**[08:04] ---**
I know.
**[08:06] ---**
Tell Mako and Fumin too!
**[08:08] ---**
Roger! Talk to you later!
**[08:10] ---**
Okay!
**[08:13] ---**
I think that's everyone...
**[08:16] ---**
SHIBURIN
**[08:23] ---**
Hello?
**[08:24] ---**
Yoo-hoo! Just
wondering what you're up to.
**[08:27] ---**
I was just looking over the lyrics.
**[08:30] ---**
Yeah. There's one
part that bothers me...
**[08:33] ---**
Where we sing in unison, huh?
**[08:36] ---**
Wait. In that case...
**[08:38] ---**
We should get our feelings
on the same page for that, right?
**[08:43] ---**
Yeah, let's discuss it again tomorrow.
**[08:46] ---**
Right. Then I'll see you tomorrow.
**[08:54] ---**
Like this?
**[08:56] ---**
Right, while smiling!
Shimamura, there!
**[08:59] ---**
Stop making me tell you!
**[09:01] ---**
Right! Sorry!
**[09:04] ---**
Let's pick a slogan for when we go on.
Like "prosciutto e melone" or something.
**[09:10] ---**
That's a mouthful.
**[09:11] ---**
Really?
**[09:12] ---**
What's your take, Shimamu?
**[09:14] ---**
One, two, three, four...
**[09:16] ---**
Shimamu?
**[09:18] ---**
Sorry! Is it time already?
**[09:20] ---**
No...
**[09:22] ---**
Um, they announced
it on the radio, right?
**[09:29] ---**
This is Aiko Takamori's Flouncy Time.
**[09:32] ---**
Today's guests are about to make their
CD debut. The group is New Generations!
**[09:38] ---**
One, two...
**[09:39] ---**
Hello, we're New Generations!
**[09:53] ---**
Okay! One more time...
**[09:55] ---**
Shimamu!
**[09:57] ---**
Mio-chan... Rin-chan...
**[10:00] ---**
You're practicing alone.
**[10:02] ---**
Why? We should do it together.
**[10:06] ---**
I'm always called out at the same spot,
so I thought I'd try getting it right...
**[10:11] ---**
So let's practice together.
It's faster if we do it together.
**[10:17] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:20] ---**
Okay!
**[10:22] ---**
So it's the turn?
**[10:24] ---**
That's right.
**[10:25] ---**
Maybe you're so self-conscious
that you put too much energy into it?
**[10:31] ---**
This is Aiko Takamori's Flouncy Time.
**[10:34] ---**
Today's guests are about to make their
CD debut. The group is New Generations!
**[10:40] ---**
One, two...
**[10:41] ---**
Hello, we're New Generations!
**[10:44] ---**
You'll have a miniconcert
as a release event for your debut song,
**[10:49] ---**
but how do you feel about singing
for the fans for the first time? Um...
**[10:54] ---**
The leader, Mio-chan.
**[10:56] ---**
Yes! I can't wait!
**[10:59] ---**
I want to energize the audience,
like boom-boom-boom-boom!
**[11:03] ---**
"Boom-boom-boom-boom."
That should be something.
**[11:07] ---**
How about you, Rin-chan?
**[11:08] ---**
R-Right.
**[11:10] ---**
I'm looking forward to it...
**[11:12] ---**
Come on, Shiburin!
**[11:14] ---**
More enthusiasm! Like, "I'll do
my best! Yeah!" or something.
**[11:19] ---**
Then... I'll do my best. Yeah...
**[11:24] ---**
That was a cute "yeah," Rin-chan.
**[11:28] ---**
And you, Uzuki-chan?
**[11:30] ---**
Right! I'll do my best!
**[11:32] ---**
That's all you ever say!
**[11:34] ---**
Huh? Sorry!
**[11:36] ---**
Um... I know!
I'll do my best to smile!
**[11:37] ---**
MONTHLY IDOL NEXT
**[11:37] ---**
Um... I know!
I'll do my best to smile!
**[11:40] ---**
I said it again!
**[11:41] ---**
That's your
natural airhead talking!
**[11:44] ---**
Natural airhead?
**[11:58] ---**
Good.
**[12:00] ---**
Yay!
**[12:02] ---**
Hey, Mio!
**[12:03] ---**
We did it!
**[12:07] ---**
Great!
**[12:08] ---**
That was perfect!
**[12:10] ---**
You're really good.
**[12:12] ---**
Nice dancing.
**[12:14] ---**
A brilliant performance.
**[12:15] ---**
You've got this!
**[12:19] ---**
Okay, we'll definitely make
tomorrow's miniconcert a success!
**[12:24] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:37] ---**
Good work.
**[12:39] ---**
Good work.
**[12:40] ---**
It must be hard,
working late every night.
**[12:44] ---**
No.
**[12:45] ---**
We're almost there.
**[12:48] ---**
They're all working hard, but we can't
take our eyes off them just yet, right?
**[12:53] ---**
Because there are still a lot of
stairs before they reach the palace.
**[13:00] ---**
That's true.
**[13:11] ---**
After Love Laika is totally off,
New Generations will come on.
**[13:16] ---**
Right!
**[13:17] ---**
But I'm still nervous.
**[13:19] ---**
I have butterflies again...
**[13:22] ---**
So it'll go like that.
**[13:24] ---**
Thank you.
**[13:30] ---**
Is something wrong?
**[13:32] ---**
So this is what it's like...
**[13:34] ---**
If a crowd forms, it looks like
it'll be a nuisance to the shops.
**[13:40] ---**
I invited a lot of friends,
but is that okay?
**[13:46] ---**
It should be.
**[13:49] ---**
Really?
**[13:53] ---**
Well, if you say so...
**[13:57] ---**
But it still feels like
we're gonna be in the way...
**[14:05] ---**
The performance
starts soon, so hurry over!
**[14:09] ---**
Okay. See you then.
**[14:12] ---**
How many people did you invite?
**[14:15] ---**
All my friends from school.
**[14:17] ---**
Wow...
**[14:18] ---**
But I should've told
them to come earlier.
**[14:22] ---**
Looks like it's hard
to see from the rear.
**[14:25] ---**
There's the upper floor too,
so it should be fine.
**[14:30] ---**
Almost time...
**[14:34] ---**
Yes?
**[14:36] ---**
We came.
**[14:37] ---**
Hey there!
**[14:39] ---**
Everyone!
**[14:40] ---**
Um, I brought treats.
**[14:44] ---**
Here you are. Macarons!
From my favorite shop.
**[14:49] ---**
T-Thank you!
**[14:50] ---**
If we eat this, our outfits won't fit!
**[14:53] ---**
They're delicious, so it's okay.
**[14:55] ---**
Oh, right. Miku-chan, Rika-chan, and
Miria-chan couldn't make it due to work,
**[15:01] ---**
so they sent a video message.
**[15:04] ---**
I'm cheering you on as a rival, nya!
Do your best and don't screw up, nya!
**[15:09] ---**
Do your best, nya!
**[15:13] ---**
That's encouraging!
**[15:14] ---**
Ta-da!
**[15:16] ---**
I brought a message
from Anzu-chan too!
**[15:25] ---**
Good luck...
**[15:27] ---**
Bring me back
some candy as a souvenir...
**[15:33] ---**
It seems everything is
in place for the party of madness.
**[15:38] ---**
I would've gone with a more rockin'
outfit, but that's still pretty sweet.
**[15:44] ---**
Thank you.
**[15:45] ---**
Everyone's here, huh?
**[15:48] ---**
Yoo-hoo! Mika-nee!
**[15:50] ---**
I'll be watching from
the wings, so kill it!
**[15:54] ---**
Okay!
**[15:55] ---**
I'll do my best!
**[16:01] ---**
The show is about to begin.
**[16:03] ---**
Please be on standby.
**[16:15] ---**
Today...
**[16:22] ---**
This is your first step.
Please do your best.
**[16:26] ---**
That's all?
**[16:28] ---**
Yes.
**[16:29] ---**
I will do my best!
**[16:31] ---**
- Right!
- Da!
**[16:36] ---**
Let's go.
**[16:37] ---**
Right!
**[16:43] ---**
Hello, all! Welcome to the first debut
of 346 Production's Cinderella Project!
**[16:50] ---**
Minami...
**[16:56] ---**
Let us shake hands.
**[17:01] ---**
Okay.
**[17:02] ---**
...and Uzuki Shimamura-chan,
the trio called New Generations!
**[17:08] ---**
It'll be okay, won't it?
**[17:10] ---**
We practiced a lot...
**[17:12] ---**
I'm sure it'll go well, right?
**[17:16] ---**
Shimamu.
**[17:18] ---**
It'll be fine. We all know
that fun is waiting for us.
**[17:22] ---**
The audience will have a great
time, and I'm sure it'll go well.
**[17:27] ---**
Right, Shiburin?
**[17:28] ---**
Yeah. That's right.
**[17:31] ---**
So have confidence!
**[17:34] ---**
Mio-chan...
**[17:36] ---**
Rin-chan...
**[17:39] ---**
Right!
**[17:41] ---**
And now the moment you've
waited for! Here's Love Laika! Enjoy!
**[17:48] ---**
Nice to meet you.
We're Love Laika!
**[17:51] ---**
Please listen to our debut song.
**[17:55] ---**
"Memories"!
**[19:38] ---**
Thank you!
**[19:46] ---**
Spasiba!
**[19:47] ---**
Thank you!
**[19:59] ---**
Thank you!
**[20:01] ---**
Thank you!
**[20:03] ---**
Thank you...
**[20:07] ---**
Mio-chan?
**[20:11] ---**
We hope you continue
to support New Generations!
**[20:15] ---**
Please!
**[20:18] ---**
Mio!
**[20:22] ---**
Mio!
**[20:24] ---**
GOOD LUCK!
AIM TO BE THE NO. 1 IDOL!
**[20:24] ---**
You're cute! Mio!
**[20:33] ---**
Mio-chan!
**[20:47] ---**
I am so happy.
**[20:48] ---**
Yeah, me too.
**[20:52] ---**
Mio!
**[20:53] ---**
Good work.
**[20:54] ---**
Good work.
**[20:59] ---**
Mio-chan!
**[21:00] ---**
Now the other members have to step up.
**[21:02] ---**
Wait!
**[21:03] ---**
Good work! That was great! Uh...
**[21:06] ---**
Huh?
**[21:09] ---**
Excuse me.
**[21:12] ---**
Honda-san.
**[21:14] ---**
What's wrong?
**[21:18] ---**
Why?
**[21:21] ---**
There was hardly anybody there! Why?
**[21:25] ---**
There were plenty.
**[21:27] ---**
Plenty? It was nothing
like that last concert!
**[21:31] ---**
Last concert?
**[21:32] ---**
I told my friends we were
gonna have a great concert.
**[21:36] ---**
I said they couldn't get good spots
unless they came early.
**[21:40] ---**
I look stupid!
**[21:43] ---**
Mio-chan...
**[21:44] ---**
I thought everyone would
be into it like at that last concert...
**[21:50] ---**
You mean when you
were on stage at my concert?
**[21:54] ---**
I invited a lot of
friends, but is that okay?
**[22:00] ---**
So compared to that concert,
the audience wasn't into it enough?
**[22:18] ---**
No.
**[22:19] ---**
Today's results were only natural.
**[22:24] ---**
Natural?
**[22:26] ---**
That's cruel!
**[22:27] ---**
Why? Because I'm...
Because I'm the leader?
**[22:32] ---**
No...
**[22:32] ---**
Forget it!
**[22:34] ---**
I'm
**[22:36] ---**
gonna give up on being an idol!
**[22:40] ---**
Mio-chan!
**[23:56] ---**

**[00:02] ---**
Natural?
**[00:04] ---**
That's cruel!
**[00:05] ---**
Why?
**[00:07] ---**
Because I'm the leader?
**[00:10] ---**
Forget it!
**[00:12] ---**
I'm gonna give up on being an idol!
**[00:19] ---**
Mio, are you serious?
**[00:22] ---**
Mio-chan!
**[00:24] ---**
After all, I...
**[00:29] ---**
Mio-chan will come, right?
**[00:33] ---**
Don't tell me she's really...
**[00:39] ---**
Producer-san!
**[00:44] ---**
Hey, Mio's not here.
**[00:49] ---**
So it seems.
**[00:51] ---**
That's all?
**[00:54] ---**
U-Um, I thought I'd
try going to her house...
**[01:01] ---**
Tell us her address.
**[01:06] ---**
Please
**[01:08] ---**
leave this to me.
**[01:16] ---**
EPISODE 7
**[01:17] ---**
Mio-chan's not coming, huh?
**[01:20] ---**
Maybe she's tired from
the miniconcert or something...
**[01:26] ---**
Is Mio-chan quitting?
**[01:29] ---**
Then is New Generations disbanding?
**[01:33] ---**
Even though they just
made their debut yesterday.
**[01:37] ---**
Then she's unfit to be a pro, nya!
**[01:40] ---**
Even though they
debuted before we did...
**[01:44] ---**
- Rin-chan!
- Shibuya-san, you okay?
**[01:46] ---**
Y-Yes...
**[02:10] ---**
Sis, some producer
guy is here to see you.
**[02:15] ---**
Send him away.
**[02:17] ---**
Tell him yourself.
**[02:23] ---**
I don't want to see you.
**[02:25] ---**
Don't come to my house.
**[02:29] ---**
Let me have a minute...
**[02:31] ---**
I said I don't wanna see you.
**[02:34] ---**
Go away.
**[02:39] ---**
Everyone's waiting for you.
**[02:44] ---**
This isn't an issue
for you alone...
**[02:47] ---**
I know that!
**[02:54] ---**
Producer-san!
**[02:56] ---**
Did you see Mio?
**[03:00] ---**
She turned you away?
**[03:03] ---**
Um, I think we should
go to Mio-chan's house after all.
**[03:09] ---**
Tell us her address.
**[03:11] ---**
I can't do that.
**[03:14] ---**
Why not?
**[03:16] ---**
If she says she doesn't
want to see anyone now,
**[03:20] ---**
I'd like to respect her wishes.
**[03:24] ---**
And that's it?
**[03:28] ---**
I have something to do.
**[03:29] ---**
Wait!
**[03:35] ---**
Is it okay to let him handle this?
**[03:42] ---**
Uzuki...
**[03:45] ---**
Something wrong?
**[03:46] ---**
Sorry.
**[03:49] ---**
With everything going on,
maybe I'm just tired.
**[04:18] ---**
Oh. Nobody's here yet.
**[04:41] ---**
Uzuki isn't here...
**[04:44] ---**
She called.
**[04:48] ---**
She doesn't feel well,
so she's taking the day off.
**[04:52] ---**
What about Mio?
**[04:55] ---**
I haven't been
able to get in touch yet.
**[05:02] ---**
What's going to happen with us?
**[05:06] ---**
If Mio doesn't come back...
**[05:11] ---**
I'm making arrangements.
**[05:12] ---**
Arrangements? What do you mean?
**[05:15] ---**
Um, I'd like everyone
to do what they can.
**[05:24] ---**
I can't.
**[05:26] ---**
What is this situation?
**[05:28] ---**
What do you intend to do?
Give me a decent answer.
**[05:34] ---**
I admit there has been
a difference in outlook.
**[05:38] ---**
Then even more so!
Why don't you just bring Mio back?
**[05:43] ---**
She doesn't seem to be herself yet...
**[05:52] ---**
Don't escape.
**[05:57] ---**
Remember what you said?
**[05:59] ---**
That if I came here, there
would be a different world.
**[06:04] ---**
When I performed onstage the first time.
When I heard our own finished song...
**[06:10] ---**
It felt like I was going to find it.
**[06:14] ---**
Something I can
be passionate about.
**[06:18] ---**
But right now, I don't feel it.
**[06:24] ---**
Tell me. What do you mean
by "difference in outlook"?
**[06:29] ---**
Why won't you bring Mio back?
**[06:34] ---**
What are you thinking?
**[06:41] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[06:47] ---**
And I thought I could trust you...
**[06:55] ---**
Rin-chan?
**[06:56] ---**
What do you mean she went home, nya?
**[06:59] ---**
I didn't have time to say anything.
**[07:01] ---**
I guess Uzuki-chan is also off today.
**[07:06] ---**
They may really be disbanding...
**[07:11] ---**
Maybe because I invited
them to participate in my concert...
**[07:16] ---**
What should we do, Sis?
**[07:18] ---**
What did your producer say?
**[07:22] ---**
Nothing...
**[07:24] ---**
I don't know what he's thinking.
**[07:30] ---**
Oh, you're home early.
**[08:00] ---**
And that's the outline
for the next event.
**[08:05] ---**
If there's anything you don't
understand, please ask.
**[08:09] ---**
Okay.
**[08:12] ---**
Excuse me.
**[08:15] ---**
Um...
**[08:20] ---**
How did you feel about
the performance the other night?
**[08:30] ---**
When we were on stage,
my mind was a blank,
**[08:33] ---**
so it was all I could do to just sing.
**[08:37] ---**
But after we finished
singing, the people clapped.
**[08:43] ---**
I was so happy,
thinking this was our first step,
**[08:49] ---**
but now, under these circumstances...
**[08:53] ---**
I do not know what to do.
**[09:01] ---**
Your fever's down anyway.
**[09:04] ---**
Take it easy for the day.
**[09:08] ---**
Maybe I made Rin-chan worry about me...
**[09:14] ---**
I'm sure Mio-chan will
go in today, right?
**[09:24] ---**
What is it, Mama?
**[09:28] ---**
How do you feel?
**[09:36] ---**
I apologize for just showing up.
**[09:39] ---**
I just wanted
to drop off a get-well gift,
**[09:43] ---**
but your mother
insisted I check on you.
**[09:48] ---**
U-Um...
**[09:50] ---**
I'll just leave it here...
**[09:54] ---**
Get well soon.
**[09:56] ---**
P-Producer-san!
**[10:00] ---**
U-Um, please wait for me downstairs.
**[10:04] ---**
I'll be right there.
**[10:11] ---**
I apologize for getting
a cold at such an important time.
**[10:20] ---**
Don't worry about it.
**[10:21] ---**
Is she doing a good job being an idol?
**[10:26] ---**
Yes.
**[10:27] ---**
The last concert had her so nervous
all she did was practice on her own.
**[10:34] ---**
And then...
**[10:35] ---**
M-Mama! Enough!
**[10:39] ---**
Take your time.
**[10:45] ---**
My mom likes to talk...
**[10:52] ---**
Do you have a cold too?
**[10:56] ---**
You seem kind of listless.
**[11:00] ---**
No.
**[11:07] ---**
I wonder what kind
of work we'll do next!
**[11:14] ---**
What do you want
to do from here on out?
**[11:22] ---**
I've wanted to be
on stage and have been.
**[11:25] ---**
I made my CD debut and got
to be on a radio show too.
**[11:31] ---**
It'd be cool if I could
be on TV next time.
**[11:38] ---**
Um... Actually, about
that last mini-event...
**[11:44] ---**
I feel some regret...
**[11:48] ---**
Even though it was a chance to perform,
I didn't smile all the way to the end.
**[11:58] ---**
So the next time we perform on stage,
I want to smile all the way through.
**[12:04] ---**
With Rin-chan and Mio-chan!
**[12:11] ---**
I'll be better tomorrow.
**[12:15] ---**
Don't push yourself.
**[12:17] ---**
Okay.
**[12:22] ---**
Producer-san! I look forward
to working again starting tomorrow!
**[12:42] ---**
P-Producer!
**[12:45] ---**
Tell us.
**[12:47] ---**
What'll happen to this division?
**[12:49] ---**
What about Mio-chan and Rin-chan?
**[12:52] ---**
Are they going to quit?
**[12:55] ---**
It's like a snowball
rolling downhill...
**[12:58] ---**
I finally...
**[13:00] ---**
I finally believed I just
needed to be patient about debuting...
**[13:04] ---**
What should we do?
**[13:06] ---**
It's okay.
**[13:10] ---**
New Generations isn't breaking up.
**[13:13] ---**
And no one is going to quit.
**[13:16] ---**
I promise...
**[13:19] ---**
I promise I'll bring them both back.
**[13:23] ---**
So please wait here.
**[13:42] ---**
Hi. What's wrong, everyone?
**[13:47] ---**
Um, we're...
**[13:50] ---**
...waiting for the producer.
**[13:54] ---**
Well, shall I tell you
a story in the meantime?
**[13:59] ---**
A story?
**[14:00] ---**
Yes. Once upon a time, there
was a very straightforward, upright man.
**[14:08] ---**
He always
straightforwardly led the way.
**[14:12] ---**
So that the Cinderellas would head down
the right path, it was straight ahead.
**[14:18] ---**
But depending on time and circumstances,
sometimes even with the correct path,
**[14:25] ---**
even with straightforward guidance,
the results are a mess.
**[14:30] ---**
In the end,
several Cinderellas left the man.
**[14:36] ---**
From then on, the man became a coward.
**[14:41] ---**
And he became a silent chariot that
will take the Cinderellas to the palace.
**[14:51] ---**
That's...
**[14:54] ---**
...the producer?
**[14:59] ---**
Well, let's wait a little longer
to see if the spell can be broken.
**[15:11] ---**
Shimamu, I'm sorry.
**[15:15] ---**
I'm a failure as a leader.
**[15:32] ---**
Downstairs right now?
**[15:38] ---**
Why?
**[15:41] ---**
After what I said...
**[15:45] ---**
Hey!
**[15:48] ---**
I'm sorry. He looked suspicious to me...
**[15:59] ---**
Well...
**[16:01] ---**
Please wait!
**[16:05] ---**
I told you I was quitting.
**[16:21] ---**
Honda-san!
**[16:23] ---**
Please hear me out once more!
**[16:32] ---**
What is this?
**[16:34] ---**
Photos from the event.
**[16:38] ---**
What the heck?
I'm not smiling at all.
**[16:43] ---**
The other day, when I said
the results were "natural,"
**[16:47] ---**
I didn't mean that it was a failure.
**[16:52] ---**
I think it was a success.
**[16:58] ---**
How? Even the audience wasn't into it...
**[17:04] ---**
Look at the next one.
**[17:11] ---**
I think those are nice smiles.
**[17:15] ---**
True, apart from friends and relatives,
there weren't that many people.
**[17:20] ---**
But those people stayed in one
place and listened to your song.
**[17:35] ---**
Even though they clapped...
**[17:38] ---**
I'm such a loser.
**[17:41] ---**
No, I should have...
**[17:43] ---**
I was so busy counting heads...
**[17:50] ---**
I see.
**[17:52] ---**
Then it wasn't a failure.
**[17:56] ---**
Jeez! Then that makes
me an even bigger jerk!
**[18:00] ---**
My misunderstanding
ruined it for everyone...
**[18:05] ---**
And then I ran away,
even though
**[18:10] ---**
I'm the leader...
**[18:12] ---**
I'm hopeless!
**[18:17] ---**
Honda-san, come back with me.
**[18:22] ---**
How can I look them in the eye?
**[18:26] ---**
After the trouble I caused...
**[18:29] ---**
That's exactly why you
can't leave things like this.
**[18:35] ---**
I can't afford to lose you three.
**[19:08] ---**
Let's begin a fresh
evolution, revolution, generation...
**[19:30] ---**
Shiburin!
**[19:34] ---**
Mio...
**[19:36] ---**
Producer...
**[19:39] ---**
Shiburin, I...
**[19:46] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[19:49] ---**
I'm sorry for saying I quit...
**[19:53] ---**
For running away, even
though I'm the leader...
**[19:57] ---**
And for causing trouble!
**[20:00] ---**
But I don't want it to end like this!
**[20:05] ---**
I want to continue being idols together!
**[20:14] ---**
Shibuya-san...
**[20:17] ---**
You were right.
**[20:19] ---**
I may have been trying to escape.
**[20:24] ---**
From facing you girls eye to eye.
**[20:30] ---**
I made you all confused,
**[20:33] ---**
and that hurt you.
**[20:38] ---**
I hate this.
**[20:41] ---**
I'm still not really clear
on what an idol is.
**[20:45] ---**
Things started, even though I was in
the dark. I got this far in the dark...
**[20:52] ---**
But I hate things as they are.
**[20:56] ---**
Not knowing who to
trust when I feel lost...
**[21:01] ---**
I can't stand it.
**[21:12] ---**
I'll try harder.
**[21:13] ---**
So you can trust
everyone one more time...
**[21:29] ---**
Shiburin!
**[21:33] ---**
Let's try to find
it together once more...
**[21:38] ---**
What you can be passionate about.
**[21:48] ---**
I'm looking forward to
working with you again from tomorrow.
**[21:53] ---**
Me too!
**[22:02] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[22:05] ---**
Rin-chan! Mio-chan!
**[22:09] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[22:11] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[22:16] ---**
Thank you for waiting, everyone.
**[22:22] ---**
Again, I want to move
forward with the Cinderella Project.
**[22:27] ---**
Let's climb up the
stairs together, one step at a time.
**[22:32] ---**
Yeah!
**[22:37] ---**
Excuse me, Producer!
**[22:39] ---**
Why not try speaking more casually?
**[22:43] ---**
True, he is a bit stiff, nya.
**[22:46] ---**
A time to climb over that steep wall.
**[22:48] ---**
I think that's a good idea too!
**[22:51] ---**
I agree!
**[22:53] ---**
I also think it's a good idea!
**[22:55] ---**
I also think... it would be...
**[22:59] ---**
...easier to talk to you that way!
**[23:02] ---**
I will... make an effort.
**[23:11] ---**
Why don't you go in?
**[23:14] ---**
I'm an outsider, so I'll hang back.
**[23:34] ---**
I'm looking forward to the next stage.
**[23:41] ---**
You're always determined, Uzuki.
**[23:43] ---**
That's kind of cool.
**[23:49] ---**
Okay, then one more time...
**[23:53] ---**
Fried... chicken!
**[23:56] ---**

**[00:04] ---**
Good morning! Sure is hot, huh?
**[00:07] ---**
Привет, Mio.
**[00:09] ---**
It is almost summer, yes?
**[00:12] ---**
The sun is most vexatious.
**[00:15] ---**
Ranran, aren't those
clothes getting you hot?
**[00:18] ---**
I-I asked you not to call me...
**[00:23] ---**
Is that a fan?
**[00:25] ---**
Uh-huh. This is a pretty
good way to cool off.
**[00:28] ---**
свежий!
**[00:31] ---**
Sylphs cavort!
**[00:33] ---**
Ta-da! Do you know what this is?
**[00:41] ---**
холодно! It is cold!
**[00:44] ---**
Shiva's breath?
**[00:46] ---**
And also... ta-da!
**[00:48] ---**
Good morning!
**[00:50] ---**
Good morning.
**[00:53] ---**
What are you doing?
**[00:54] ---**
Good morning!
**[00:57] ---**
What's that cushion?
**[00:59] ---**
What do you think? Cool, right?
**[01:02] ---**
Is that yours?
**[01:04] ---**
Yeah. Don't you think it'd be nice
if everyone brings something in?
**[01:09] ---**
Like show-and-tell?
**[02:42] ---**
It's nice and cool.
**[02:45] ---**
I don't think a meeting is necessary.
**[02:48] ---**
Oh? I think it's fun to
have a gathering like this!
**[02:54] ---**
Bring in personal things?
**[02:56] ---**
Yeah!
**[02:57] ---**
I thought it'd
brighten up the office!
**[03:02] ---**
You may be right, but...
**[03:04] ---**
Producer.
**[03:07] ---**
You're just being polite again.
**[03:09] ---**
My apolo...
**[03:12] ---**
Sorry.
**[03:15] ---**
If it's not about work,
I don't worry about it, nya.
**[03:19] ---**
You always bring in
your cat ears, Miku-nyan!
**[03:23] ---**
T-This is work related!
**[03:24] ---**
Work, right?
**[03:28] ---**
I just thought it'd be interesting
to get an idea of everyone's identity.
**[03:34] ---**
Well... What do the rest of you think?
**[03:38] ---**
I wouldn't mind doing
something like that.
**[03:42] ---**
I agree too! I wanna know what
everyone's gonna bring in!
**[03:47] ---**
This sounds fun!
**[03:49] ---**
I agree too! I want
to put up more stickers!
**[03:53] ---**
I want to keep my work
and private life separate, nya!
**[03:57] ---**
Well, I get a cool vibe from
the agency now, so I don't mind.
**[04:02] ---**
It's unusual for you to agree.
**[04:05] ---**
Isn't it better if we enjoy working?
**[04:07] ---**
Even with work,
I think some tension is good.
**[04:11] ---**
Why? You're too serious!
**[04:14] ---**
In other words,
work hard, play hard, nya.
**[04:17] ---**
Then why not do... Let's do this.
**[04:21] ---**
Each person is allowed
to bring in one item.
**[04:26] ---**
One item?
**[04:28] ---**
Anything's okay for the one item?
**[04:34] ---**
Well, within reason...
**[04:37] ---**
Is that agreeable...
What do you think?
**[04:43] ---**
Well...
**[04:44] ---**
I figure I'll play it by ear.
**[04:46] ---**
Yay!
**[04:49] ---**
I'm gonna bring in a sticker!
**[04:51] ---**
Producer,
**[04:53] ---**
thank you!
**[04:54] ---**
Sure. No problem.
**[04:58] ---**
One item... What should I bring?
**[05:04] ---**
Well well. It sure is lively in here.
**[05:07] ---**
Good morning!
**[05:10] ---**
Producer-san, I think it's time.
**[05:12] ---**
Right.
**[05:15] ---**
CD debut?
**[05:17] ---**
The second step...
**[05:19] ---**
Yes.
**[05:20] ---**
W-Who'll debut this time, nya?
**[05:23] ---**
Here, here! Me, me!
**[05:25] ---**
M-Me too!
**[05:27] ---**
I want to make my debut too!
**[05:30] ---**
It sounds like everyone wants to,
so I'll hold back this time.
**[05:35] ---**
It's finally time?
**[05:39] ---**
This time,
**[05:41] ---**
it's Ranko Kanzaki-san.
**[05:43] ---**
You're going to make a solo CD debut.
**[05:47] ---**
You did it, Ranran!
**[05:50] ---**
Well...
**[05:51] ---**
P-chan!
**[05:52] ---**
Anyone else?
**[05:54] ---**
Like another
simultaneous group debut?
**[05:58] ---**
We're thinking along those lines
for next time, but for this time...
**[06:05] ---**
Please be patient.
**[06:09] ---**
I understand, nya! We'll wait, nya.
**[06:12] ---**
Ranko-chan, fight, nya!
**[06:17] ---**
Good luck!
**[06:19] ---**
Now is the time
to unleash my dark powers!
**[06:29] ---**
I'm happy for Ranko-chan.
**[06:32] ---**
I want to make my CD debut soon!
**[06:36] ---**
P-chan said there'll be two units
with three people each next time.
**[06:40] ---**
Anyway, we have
to trust him for now, nya.
**[06:44] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:47] ---**
Still, it's business
as usual for Anzu-chan...
**[06:52] ---**
Anzu-chan, where are you?
**[06:56] ---**
Hey, I wonder what kind
of songs Ranko-chan will sing.
**[07:01] ---**
My guess is something gothic.
**[07:04] ---**
What's "gothic"?
**[07:05] ---**
Like the clothes
she's always wearing.
**[07:09] ---**
That's totally rock!
**[07:13] ---**
It's still early, but we've asked a
composer to base a song on your image.
**[07:19] ---**
My soul is undulating!
You definitely have a sharp eye.
**[07:24] ---**
As long as you approve.
**[07:28] ---**
We're having a
lyricist write the song,
**[07:32] ---**
and we'll go ahead
with a publicity video.
**[07:35] ---**
A clan of darkness ruling the night.
**[07:38] ---**
They will visit a bloody
atrocity upon the world.
**[07:43] ---**
Our thinking is to adapt the material
to your image and make it dark.
**[07:49] ---**
If possible, I'd like it
to be straightforward horror...
**[07:53] ---**
Kanzaki-san?
**[07:55] ---**
P-Past forms are spun in these psalms.
**[07:59] ---**
They say there is already enough magic
**[08:01] ---**
and the clan of
darkness's time is over.
**[08:04] ---**
Now is the time for the bound wings
to be unleashed and the soul to be free!
**[08:15] ---**
"IT IS A MOST VEXATIOUS SUN."
**[08:20] ---**
You have a problem
with the project's material?
**[08:25] ---**
Specifically...
**[08:30] ---**
Once charged with a noble mission!
**[08:33] ---**
Innocent wings stained black!
**[08:36] ---**
In the end, the true
prince of darkness will be awakened!
**[08:42] ---**
Mission...
**[08:45] ---**
Prince of darkness...
**[08:49] ---**
So the content
doesn't really fit your image.
**[08:53] ---**
But I'm sorry.
I don't see how it's different.
**[08:58] ---**
Is that an important thing?
**[09:05] ---**
They've got a great style now.
**[09:08] ---**
Huh?
**[09:09] ---**
Ranran!
**[09:12] ---**
How'd the meeting
about your CD debut go?
**[09:17] ---**
I never thought the power of the eye
would dim the sky before my nativity.
**[09:23] ---**
Eye?
**[09:25] ---**
Dim?
**[09:27] ---**
I am engulfed in darkness.
**[09:30] ---**
Um... good job?
**[09:33] ---**
Good job!
**[09:35] ---**
Please wait, Ranko!
Let's go home together!
**[09:39] ---**
Right, they're both
staying in the dorm.
**[09:43] ---**
I wonder what's wrong with Ranko-chan.
**[09:46] ---**
She seems depressed.
**[09:49] ---**
Now that you mention it...
**[09:51] ---**
I wonder if something happened.
**[10:00] ---**
How do you feel, Ranko?
**[10:03] ---**
Is something bothering you?
**[10:06] ---**
S-Something bothering me?
**[10:10] ---**
You seem down. Am I wrong?
**[10:15] ---**
Words are a weakness.
**[10:17] ---**
I guess there are
no mysteries that convey hidden motives.
**[10:21] ---**
Mysteries?
**[10:22] ---**
I'm sorry. Those are difficult words.
**[10:29] ---**
Ranko,
**[10:31] ---**
is there anything
I can do to help you?
**[10:37] ---**
Kind comrade. I am grateful.
**[10:41] ---**
But no need to worry.
**[10:43] ---**
I shall overcome all difficulties!
**[10:48] ---**
Welcome back.
**[10:49] ---**
Good evening, Kome and Shoko.
**[10:52] ---**
A comfortable evening, no?
**[10:54] ---**
Welcome back!
**[10:56] ---**
Incidentally, this shiitake said that.
**[11:00] ---**
That is an impressive гриб... shiitake.
**[11:03] ---**
Um...
**[11:05] ---**
The movie I bought on the Internet
just arrived, so let's watch it.
**[11:11] ---**
Can my shimeji watch too?
**[11:14] ---**
Yeah.
**[11:15] ---**
I-I have, uh... a ritual to perform!
**[11:21] ---**
The movie isn't that scary...
**[11:44] ---**
SALISBURY STEAK MEAL
**[11:45] ---**
I did my best with all my
lessons today too, nya. Huh?
**[11:49] ---**
Where's Ranko-chan?
**[11:50] ---**
She ate already.
**[11:53] ---**
She said she had
something to do.
**[11:58] ---**
A rit-choo-al?
**[12:00] ---**
Ritual?
**[12:07] ---**
Finished!
**[12:08] ---**
Huh, didn't know you could draw.
**[12:11] ---**
T-To think you
broke my mental barrier!
**[12:14] ---**
Why're you hiding it? Show me!
**[12:17] ---**
You're forbidden to touch it!
**[12:19] ---**
Is that sketchbook
the item you brought?
**[12:23] ---**
T-This is my grimoire.
**[12:25] ---**
Part of my soul. A magical
instrument I can't part with!
**[12:29] ---**
Um... That's not the item?
**[12:33] ---**
The instrument bearing
another power is right here.
**[12:38] ---**
What is it?
**[12:45] ---**
It went in!
**[12:47] ---**
That's great! I wanna do it too!
**[12:53] ---**
The sweet breath of life...
**[12:56] ---**
красивая.
**[12:57] ---**
Those are beautiful flowers.
**[13:00] ---**
From your family's shop?
**[13:02] ---**
Yeah. I thought they'd
be nice to look at.
**[13:08] ---**
Beautiful...
**[13:12] ---**
Producer-san!
**[13:14] ---**
Um... Would you like
to have some tea?
**[13:19] ---**
Yes. If you don't mind...
That is, I would.
**[13:26] ---**
Here, Producer-san.
**[13:29] ---**
Thank you very mu... Thanks.
**[13:35] ---**
How is it?
**[13:37] ---**
It's quite delicious...
**[13:40] ---**
It's good.
**[13:41] ---**
Maybe we should just
let the producer be polite.
**[13:45] ---**
I... apologize.
**[13:49] ---**
By the way, who brought that?
**[13:52] ---**
Ranran. That was
the first item here.
**[13:57] ---**
What is it?
**[13:59] ---**
A horseshoe, right?
**[14:00] ---**
What's that?
**[14:02] ---**
It's nailed to horses' hooves,
**[14:04] ---**
but I believe it's also supposed
to ward evil and bring fortune.
**[14:09] ---**
I never knew!
**[14:13] ---**
May you all be
blessed equally, my compatriots!
**[14:18] ---**
Be wrapped in holy light
and enjoy good fortune!
**[14:22] ---**
Okay.
**[14:23] ---**
Thanks, Ranko-chan!
**[14:25] ---**
Thank you!
**[14:27] ---**
That's lovely.
**[14:29] ---**
Maybe it'd be even more
effective with a four-leaf clover.
**[14:35] ---**
You're a good girl, Ranran.
Bringing in a lucky item for everyone!
**[14:41] ---**
Since it's Ranko, I thought she'd
bring in something like a scary skull.
**[14:46] ---**
A skull?
**[14:47] ---**
Or a bloody cross...
**[14:50] ---**
Blood?
**[14:51] ---**
Ranko doesn't like the horror genre.
**[14:55] ---**
Really?
**[14:56] ---**
She won't watch horror
movies since they're scary.
**[15:00] ---**
Me neither...
**[15:01] ---**
Kind of surprising.
**[15:03] ---**
REAL GOTHIC HORROR
**[15:09] ---**
"GOOD AFTERNOON?"
**[15:16] ---**
Um, Kanzaki-san.
**[15:18] ---**
About the project...
**[15:20] ---**
P-Pro...
**[15:23] ---**
What is it?
**[15:25] ---**
Provincial wind!
**[15:30] ---**
Provincial?
**[15:34] ---**
Kanzaki-san.
**[15:36] ---**
About this "provincial wind"...
**[15:38] ---**
Um... P-Pro...
**[15:43] ---**
Proletarian literature!
**[15:47] ---**
Kanzaki-san.
**[15:50] ---**
Prologue! Propose! Professional!
**[15:54] ---**
Kanzaki-san, um...
**[15:56] ---**
Pro... Pro...
**[16:01] ---**
Pudding...
**[16:09] ---**
To think there would
be this much pressure.
**[16:12] ---**
Ranran! Don't you want
to show that to the producer?
**[16:17] ---**
W-What?
**[16:19] ---**
Huh? You don't?
**[16:20] ---**
I-It's, um...
**[16:25] ---**
It's too early to open the grimoire.
**[16:29] ---**
What's in there?
**[16:32] ---**
Touching it is forbidden!
**[16:34] ---**
We can't look at it?
**[16:40] ---**
PROVINCIAL WIND
PROLETARIAN LITERATURE
**[16:45] ---**
Come in.
**[16:48] ---**
Have a moment?
**[16:49] ---**
Yes.
**[16:52] ---**
Are you really talking to Ranko?
**[16:55] ---**
It seems she's avoiding me.
**[16:58] ---**
Because I can't really understand
what she's trying to tell me.
**[17:04] ---**
You've got it wrong.
**[17:06] ---**
She's not avoiding you.
**[17:09] ---**
Before focusing on words,
why not try getting close to her?
**[17:15] ---**
About Ranko-chan?
**[17:19] ---**
Like me, she loves salisbury steak...
**[17:22] ---**
I think that's the way to go.
**[17:24] ---**
I see. That's rough.
**[17:27] ---**
It's difficult to
express feelings, you know?
**[17:31] ---**
At such times,
sweets help you have a nice chat.
**[17:37] ---**
Kanzaki-san.
**[17:39] ---**
P-P-P-Pro...
**[17:40] ---**
Like when you came for us...
**[17:44] ---**
Pro... Protein...
**[17:47] ---**
Can I talk to you?
**[17:57] ---**
Isn't the sky pretty?
**[17:59] ---**
The scorching flames
of hell sear my flesh.
**[18:06] ---**
The sunshine is a little strong...
**[18:17] ---**
Thank you.
**[18:20] ---**
That's a nice umbrella.
**[18:23] ---**
Even with this,
I can feel what you're into.
**[18:36] ---**
Accept these...
richly colored magic rocks.
**[18:44] ---**
Thank you.
**[18:49] ---**
How do you spend your days off?
**[18:53] ---**
Deceiving God's eyes and etching
forbidden rituals into my grimoire.
**[18:59] ---**
What kind of music do you like?
**[19:01] ---**
Dark requiems.
**[19:03] ---**
The gospel of heaven.
Fairy theater.
**[19:07] ---**
I worship before all altars equally.
**[19:12] ---**
Do you like salisbury steak?
**[19:16] ---**
That's what I heard.
**[19:17] ---**
W-What?
**[19:19] ---**
It is forbidden to touch me, but...
**[19:23] ---**
Me too.
**[19:26] ---**
I like it too. Salisbury steak.
**[19:30] ---**
F-Forbidden fruit.
**[19:33] ---**
Crimson tonic enhances my magic.
**[19:36] ---**
How's it going?
**[19:38] ---**
They're talking now.
**[19:40] ---**
They seem to be getting along.
**[19:51] ---**
Kanzaki-san...
**[19:53] ---**
P-Pro...
**[19:55] ---**
Pro... P-Pro...
**[19:57] ---**
Pro... P-Pro...
**[20:01] ---**
Producer!
**[20:03] ---**
I said it...
**[20:05] ---**
This is...
**[20:12] ---**
Can I ask a question?
**[20:15] ---**
What are the specifics to reach
the image in these drawings from here?
**[20:25] ---**
I think that's a very important thing.
**[20:32] ---**
Fine!
**[20:33] ---**
Listen to me, my servant!
**[20:35] ---**
No, my friend!
**[20:38] ---**
I will make your soul resonate!
**[20:42] ---**
There is enough magic, and
the clan of darkness's time is over.
**[20:47] ---**
The 12 wings that were once pure
are now stained black and sealed away.
**[20:52] ---**
If you take the wrong path once,
**[20:55] ---**
eventually, the true prince
of darkness will be awakened!
**[21:03] ---**
Wings...
**[21:05] ---**
Like a fallen angel, originally
a holy being, something like that?
**[21:11] ---**
In that case...
**[21:18] ---**
Then the concept is...
**[21:23] ---**
"Rosenburg Engel"?
**[21:28] ---**
Yes, the German spelling of "angel."
**[22:40] ---**
My friend...
**[22:41] ---**
No, Producer.
**[22:43] ---**
And everyone else, thank you.
**[22:46] ---**
Thank you for understanding my voice.
**[22:49] ---**
Let's continue to do our best.
**[22:53] ---**
As my soul takes me!
**[23:00] ---**
- Go!
- There!
**[23:10] ---**
This feels like our very own palace!
**[23:16] ---**
The sun is most vexatious, isn't it?
**[23:17] ---**
Good morning!
**[23:20] ---**
Morning, Ranran!
**[23:21] ---**
I said not to call me that...
**[23:23] ---**
Seems your
debut CD's selling well!
**[23:26] ---**
And you're performing
again today, right?
**[23:31] ---**
The moon is full.
The sun will perish.
**[23:34] ---**
Wings will be loosed
in the jet-black darkness of night.
**[23:38] ---**
What does that mean?
**[23:40] ---**
I see... You're gonna be home late
again tonight because of work.
**[23:45] ---**
H-How'd you know, nya?
**[23:48] ---**
How? You guys
didn't understand her?
**[23:54] ---**
Please tell us.
**[23:56] ---**

**[00:07] ---**
Good luck!
**[00:09] ---**
I'm cheering you on.
**[00:10] ---**
T-Thank you.
**[00:12] ---**
T-Thank you.
**[00:14] ---**
Please support "Candy Island"!
**[01:49] ---**
You'll be on TV for the first time?
**[01:52] ---**
Yes.
**[01:53] ---**
Lucky! What's the show?
**[01:56] ---**
"Cerebral Boom! Brains Castle."
**[02:00] ---**
The quiz show
Mizuki-san and Airi-san host!
**[02:04] ---**
Where idols compete for
self-promotion time, nya!
**[02:07] ---**
Cool, that's like a competition show.
**[02:11] ---**
When's the taping?
**[02:12] ---**
Tomorrow.
**[02:14] ---**
They say it'll be taped
before a live audience.
**[02:18] ---**
I'm already nervous
being on TV for the first time...
**[02:22] ---**
I'm nervous about it too.
**[02:25] ---**
After we released a song, I figured
I wouldn't have to work for a while.
**[02:30] ---**
I'm at the end of my rope.
**[02:32] ---**
What the heck!
**[02:35] ---**
Silly remarks and reactions
are variety-show basics!
**[02:39] ---**
If you learn that, you'll have
nothing to worry about!
**[02:43] ---**
Okay, let's train!
**[02:46] ---**
What the heck. What the heck.
**[02:49] ---**
What the heck. What the heck.
**[02:52] ---**
Like you're mad!
**[02:54] ---**
What the heck.
**[02:55] ---**
Snap at the person!
**[02:57] ---**
What the heck!
**[02:58] ---**
- Not even close, nya!
- Anzu-chan, you too!
**[03:02] ---**
I say the silly remarks.
**[03:05] ---**
Then remark on this, nya.
**[03:09] ---**
With variety shows, you have
to be instantaneous. Hurry up!
**[03:13] ---**
A rhinoceros beetle and a tsuchinoko.
**[03:17] ---**
You're just going to sleep, nya!
**[03:19] ---**
Nice comeback.
**[03:21] ---**
That's Miku-nyan.
**[03:22] ---**
Cakewalk, nya.
**[03:24] ---**
Listen, even with lame remarks, variety
shows save the day with retorts, okay?
**[03:29] ---**
Yes!
**[03:31] ---**
Use that same fighting spirit
tomorrow to appeal to the audience.
**[03:36] ---**
I forgot we're going
to have an audience...
**[03:40] ---**
We've got to do
something about that.
**[03:48] ---**
Yes?
**[03:50] ---**
Hey, we need
your help for a minute.
**[03:54] ---**
Chieri-chan, it's fun
being an idol, isn't it?
**[03:58] ---**
Yeah. I like wearing cute outfits...
**[04:03] ---**
But I get so nervous
in front of a crowd...
**[04:08] ---**
I know what you mean.
**[04:11] ---**
I still get nervous too.
**[04:15] ---**
I'm sure I'd enjoy it if it was me, nya!
And the audience would too, nya.
**[04:20] ---**
Same here.
**[04:21] ---**
Um, everyone...
**[04:27] ---**
A frog.
**[04:29] ---**
This won't work!
It's just not a good match!
**[04:32] ---**
What's this, nya?
**[04:34] ---**
They say to think of the crowd
as pumpkins if you're nervous.
**[04:38] ---**
That's not a pumpkin.
**[04:41] ---**
Sorry. This is all we had...
**[04:44] ---**
I wanted to be
of some assistance...
**[04:50] ---**
Thank you!
**[04:53] ---**
I think I can do my best now.
**[04:55] ---**
Let's do our best for your TV debut.
**[04:58] ---**
Right!
**[04:59] ---**
Let's do our best
to get promotion time!
**[05:02] ---**
Let's use it to sing our song!
**[05:05] ---**
We'll do our best for "Candy Island"!
**[05:08] ---**
Yeah!
**[05:13] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:17] ---**
Ieyasu, Hidetada, lemitsu...
**[05:19] ---**
Frog, frog, frog...
**[05:22] ---**
What the heck.
**[05:24] ---**
Well, it'll work out somehow.
**[05:27] ---**
Yeah... And the girls said
they'd come, so let's do our best!
**[05:32] ---**
R-Right...
**[05:35] ---**
Good morning!
**[05:38] ---**
Boy, my last taping ran late.
**[05:41] ---**
Although it was because I'm cute...
**[05:47] ---**
Sachiko Koshimizu-chan!
**[05:50] ---**
Huh?
**[05:51] ---**
Sachiko-han?
**[05:53] ---**
I thought I heard your voice.
What are you doing?
**[05:57] ---**
Declaring war on a rival or something?
**[06:00] ---**
U-Um...
**[06:02] ---**
Sae Kobayakawa-chan
and Yuki Himekawa-chan!
**[06:05] ---**
Maybe you're in
the wrong dressing room?
**[06:09] ---**
O-O-Of course not!
**[06:12] ---**
The newbies just...
Yeah, just wanted some advice!
**[06:17] ---**
Well, that's okay.
**[06:20] ---**
Please go easy on me today.
**[06:23] ---**
Yes! We look forward to it!
**[06:26] ---**
Be careful you don't get hurt.
**[06:28] ---**
Are you training? The taping's
tough, but let's all do our best!
**[06:33] ---**
R-Right...
**[06:35] ---**
Get hurt? Tough?
This is a quiz show, right?
**[06:39] ---**
You didn't know?
**[06:41] ---**
Starting this episode, it's an
action-variety show full of exercise.
**[06:46] ---**
BRAWN BOOM!
**[06:48] ---**
Even the title's changed...
**[06:52] ---**
BRAWN BOOM!
**[06:55] ---**
Everyone! Are you bored?
**[06:58] ---**
We're bored!
**[07:00] ---**
We understand. But we'll dispel
that boredom with competition!
**[07:05] ---**
Mizuki and Airi's love-love
power will jump-start your hearts!
**[07:13] ---**
So let's begin!
**[07:16] ---**
Brawn Boom! Muscle Castle!
**[07:24] ---**
All right! Brains have become
brawn and we've taken on a new look,
**[07:30] ---**
but do you know why, Airi-chan?
**[07:33] ---**
Um, idols were so bad at the
quizzes that it dragged the show...
**[07:38] ---**
Now, let's introduce the idols
competing for self-promotion time.
**[07:46] ---**
First, let's bring out
the usual suspects!
**[07:49] ---**
Yay!
**[07:50] ---**
Here I come!
**[07:51] ---**
Welcome!
**[07:53] ---**
Well, please tell us your team name.
**[07:55] ---**
Cute Me...
**[07:57] ---**
- ...and Baseball...
- ...team!
**[08:01] ---**
Next, the assassins
sent by the Cinderella Project!
**[08:05] ---**
It's this trio's first time on TV!
**[08:11] ---**
Welcome!
**[08:13] ---**
And what's your team name?
**[08:15] ---**
Right. One, two...
**[08:18] ---**
C-Candy Island!
**[08:22] ---**
That is fresh.
**[08:25] ---**
As your team lost every time so far, do
you think you can beat innocence today?
**[08:32] ---**
It'll be fine!
After all, I'm on the team!
**[08:36] ---**
Wait! If you're that enthusiastic,
channel it with a mic performance.
**[08:43] ---**
You girls are... Candy Island, was it?
**[08:47] ---**
If your attitude's sweet as candy, you
won't beat cute little me on this show!
**[08:54] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[08:56] ---**
What? You're apologizing?
**[08:58] ---**
Ten points!
**[09:03] ---**
Team Candy won the talk battle!
**[09:08] ---**
Okay, cut!
**[09:10] ---**
I feel like a mom
watching over her kids.
**[09:13] ---**
It went well, but Chieri
was just tense, right?
**[09:17] ---**
But they got points,
so it's a good start.
**[09:20] ---**
You're naive!
**[09:21] ---**
That was a good save from
the host to make the show interesting.
**[09:26] ---**
The real competition is next.
**[09:29] ---**
I'm so nervous...
Chieri-chan, are you okay?
**[09:32] ---**
Y-Yes! No...
**[09:35] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[09:36] ---**
When I heard the crowd,
my mind went blank.
**[09:40] ---**
Yeah...
**[09:41] ---**
Look, remember... Frogs.
**[09:45] ---**
Right, frogs! Let's calm
down and then go.
**[09:49] ---**
Okay. Frogs, frogs...
**[09:53] ---**
Balloon-popping contest!
**[09:56] ---**
The rules are easy. Pop the balloon
above the other team first!
**[10:01] ---**
Aim to be an idol
with true muscles! Ready...
**[10:15] ---**
They're getting big.
**[10:17] ---**
It looks like Cute Me
and Baseball's is slightly bigger.
**[10:24] ---**
Don't pop by me!
**[10:28] ---**
That was a shock.
**[10:31] ---**
This is great!
**[10:36] ---**
The winners, Team Baseball!
**[10:39] ---**
Kawashima-san,
you're leaving out "Cute Me"!
**[10:43] ---**
Okay. Time for
the penalty phase!
**[10:47] ---**
The losing Team Candy
has to drink this herbal tea.
**[10:51] ---**
Um, what's it taste like?
**[10:53] ---**
You should down it in one gulp!
**[10:59] ---**
I-I-It's bitter!
**[11:02] ---**
Come on, Anzu-chan, drink it all!
**[11:04] ---**
I can't! I can't!
**[11:06] ---**
Nice reaction!
**[11:09] ---**
Marshmallow catch competition!
**[11:13] ---**
Who wants to catch them?
**[11:14] ---**
Me!
**[11:15] ---**
You're really into it, huh?
**[11:18] ---**
Leave catching to me!
**[11:20] ---**
I want to eat marshmallows!
**[11:22] ---**
You're honest.
**[11:25] ---**
Who wants to fire the marshmallow gun?
**[11:27] ---**
Me!
**[11:29] ---**
- Okay, it's settled.
- You've got this.
**[11:32] ---**
Then Sae-chan and Anzu-chan
will participate next so get ready.
**[11:38] ---**
Team Baseball is first.
**[11:41] ---**
Fire the marshmallows!
**[11:42] ---**
I'm ready whenever!
**[11:44] ---**
Leave it to me! I'll get 'em
right in your mouth for sure.
**[11:52] ---**
Sorry...
**[11:54] ---**
Sachiko...
**[11:55] ---**
Sachiko-chan, that distance
is against the rules.
**[11:59] ---**
Team Candy is up next!
**[12:04] ---**
Frogs...
**[12:10] ---**
The marshmallow...
**[12:12] ---**
Nice dash.
**[12:14] ---**
We can tell how badly
you wanted to eat it.
**[12:20] ---**
All right!
**[12:26] ---**
Okay...
**[12:28] ---**
We did it!
**[12:33] ---**
Okay, last one.
If you catch it, you'll be tied.
**[12:37] ---**
Kanako-chan, do your best!
**[12:39] ---**
Right!
**[12:41] ---**
Chieri-chan, I'm ready!
**[12:42] ---**
Okay...
**[12:53] ---**
We did it!
**[12:55] ---**
Thank goodness...
**[12:57] ---**
Kanako-chan, how do you feel?
**[13:01] ---**
It's good!
**[13:04] ---**
Kanako-chan did it!
**[13:06] ---**
It was like a miracle
granted by the god of sweets.
**[13:10] ---**
They've got the wind
at their backs!
**[13:14] ---**
Style.
**[13:16] ---**
That's a muscle that girls
always have to cultivate and train.
**[13:21] ---**
So our next competition
is a plain-clothes fashion show!
**[13:27] ---**
First, a fairy who hails from
Hokkaido, Anzu Futaba-chan!
**[13:33] ---**
A casual outfit of T-shirt and spats.
And the bunny always under her arm.
**[13:40] ---**
IF YOU WORK, YOU LOSE
**[13:40] ---**
Is that saying her policy?
The curtain rises on a new age of idols.
**[13:46] ---**
But maybe this is too new!
**[13:51] ---**
They're eating it up.
**[13:52] ---**
Let's move on.
**[13:56] ---**
This angel descended to us
from Kyoto. Sae Kobayakawa-chan.
**[14:01] ---**
She changed her image today, doffing
the usual kimono for a school uniform.
**[14:07] ---**
That's because I came
here right after school!
**[14:13] ---**
Sixty points!
**[14:15] ---**
Yes!
**[14:18] ---**
You did great, Anzu-chan.
You left your mark.
**[14:25] ---**
Now the last event. The winner gets lots
of points, a chance to turn it around!
**[14:30] ---**
And glorious self-promotion time.
**[14:33] ---**
But if you lose, a glorious
punishment is waiting for you.
**[14:39] ---**
A bungee jump down a beautiful canyon.
**[14:41] ---**
W-Wait a second...
**[14:44] ---**
I-I can't do that...
**[14:46] ---**
This is a tough one.
**[14:49] ---**
Okay!
**[14:51] ---**
What should we do?
**[14:52] ---**
Producer, I don't think I can do this.
**[14:56] ---**
It's work. Besides...
**[15:01] ---**
Chieri-chan!
**[15:02] ---**
Ogata-san!
**[15:09] ---**
Are you okay?
**[15:10] ---**
Yes. I'm sorry.
**[15:16] ---**
Do you think you
can make the next segment?
**[15:20] ---**
Yes...
**[15:22] ---**
Can you do it with a smile?
**[15:30] ---**
Chieri-chan, I'm afraid of
doing a bungee jump too...
**[15:34] ---**
...but for the next segment,
I'm going to do my best with a smile...
**[15:40] ---**
I was so happy when
I made my debut with a unit.
**[15:47] ---**
I knew I never would've
been able to do anything alone.
**[15:52] ---**
I'm scared...
**[15:54] ---**
...and I don't have
confidence in my smile...
**[15:57] ---**
...but you two gave me courage...
**[16:04] ---**
...so I want to do it together!
**[16:07] ---**
Yeah, let's do it together!
**[16:09] ---**
If we do, even a bungee jump's not scary!
**[16:12] ---**
I'm still afraid of that.
**[16:14] ---**
Me too...
**[16:17] ---**
I don't wanna do a bungee jump,
so let's aim for a comeback!
**[16:22] ---**
Right, we just have to make a comeback!
Then we'll get self-promotion time!
**[16:28] ---**
Let's sing to them together!
**[16:30] ---**
Yeah!
**[16:33] ---**
Let's go, Candy Island!
**[16:35] ---**
Yeah!
**[16:40] ---**
Now let's move on!
The final competition is...
**[16:44] ---**
...a merging of brains and brawn!
**[16:47] ---**
Slide Quiz!
**[16:51] ---**
The winners' last person will be at the top.
**[16:54] ---**
The losing team gets no points.
**[16:57] ---**
The quiz is selected from this board.
First correct answer gets points.
**[17:02] ---**
Once given, the angle of
the other team's slides goes up.
**[17:06] ---**
So let's start with
entertainment for ten points.
**[17:11] ---**
What's the name of the team
who blew up the show last week
**[17:16] ---**
with a format-destroying ditzy answer?
**[17:18] ---**
Team BB!
**[17:20] ---**
Sachiko-chan is correct!
**[17:21] ---**
Kanako-chan was a little slow.
**[17:26] ---**
Don't fall yet.
**[17:28] ---**
Okay, Team Baseball, next question?
**[17:31] ---**
Entertainment for 20!
**[17:34] ---**
Who is this male trio that began
their world tour in April of this year?
**[17:41] ---**
Jupiter!
**[17:42] ---**
Correct!
**[17:46] ---**
Rio de Janeiro!
**[17:47] ---**
Correct.
**[17:48] ---**
All right!
**[17:51] ---**
I-I can't...
**[17:53] ---**
No!
**[17:54] ---**
Let's hang in there together!
**[17:56] ---**
O-Okay!
**[17:59] ---**
I'll decide the next one.
History for 10 points!
**[18:04] ---**
Who was the third Tokugawa shogun?
**[18:08] ---**
U-Um...
**[18:10] ---**
Iemitsu!
**[18:12] ---**
Kanako-chan is correct!
**[18:15] ---**
You're really smart!
**[18:20] ---**
It's Team Candy's
chance to work a miracle!
**[18:24] ---**
Science for 30!
**[18:26] ---**
Team Candy's back in the game!
**[18:28] ---**
A-Anzu-chan...
**[18:30] ---**
This is the only way we can win.
**[18:34] ---**
How fast will an apple dropped from atop
**[18:37] ---**
Sky Tree be when it hits the ground?
**[18:41] ---**
Sky Tree is 634 meters high,
and gravitational acceleration is 9.8.
**[18:48] ---**
It'll be 111.474
meters per second.
**[18:52] ---**
U-Um, in km per hour?
**[18:54] ---**
It's 401.306 km!
**[18:57] ---**
C-Correct!
**[19:00] ---**
Did you just work that out now?
**[19:01] ---**
Amazing...
**[19:07] ---**
Uh-oh, do we have our first girl down?
**[19:10] ---**
It looks weird, but she's holding on!
**[19:13] ---**
On to the next question.
**[19:15] ---**
Anime for 30!
**[19:16] ---**
Oh my, this time for 30 points!
**[19:21] ---**
Where was Astral Projection:
Furubokko-chan's heroine born?
**[19:25] ---**
Pluto, block 6, number 6.
**[19:28] ---**
C-Correct!
**[19:31] ---**
She covers a lot of territory.
**[19:35] ---**
I can't hang on!
**[19:39] ---**
Sae-chan is out!
**[19:41] ---**
Forgive me...
**[19:43] ---**
Hurry up with the next question!
**[19:46] ---**
Special for 30!
**[19:49] ---**
Good luck!
**[19:50] ---**
She means to win it with this!
**[19:54] ---**
In the Edo period, Dutch traders brought
a non-native species to pack glassware.
**[20:00] ---**
What is this flower that embodies luck
and pledges in the language of flowers?
**[20:05] ---**
Sorry, I don't know.
**[20:10] ---**
Um, if no one knows, the other
team will pick a topic.
**[20:14] ---**
I know!
**[20:17] ---**
Chieri-chan, you know the answer?
**[20:20] ---**
T-The answer is
**[20:23] ---**
white clover!
**[20:27] ---**
Correct!
**[20:29] ---**
That's great, Chieri-chan!
**[20:31] ---**
You did it!
**[20:33] ---**
Yeah!
**[20:35] ---**
White clover...
**[20:36] ---**
Yeah, the four-leaf clover.
**[20:38] ---**
This proves that it's good luck!
**[20:41] ---**
Raise Team Baseball's slides!
**[20:44] ---**
- Hey!
- W-W-Wait!
**[20:48] ---**
I-I'm gonna fall...
**[20:52] ---**
Sachiko-chan, that was a cute fall.
**[20:56] ---**
And so Team Candy is the winner!
**[21:03] ---**
We won...
**[21:05] ---**
Yeah...
**[21:06] ---**
Anzu-chan!
**[21:07] ---**
We won!
**[21:14] ---**
Okay, cut!
**[21:19] ---**
Going all out makes me tired.
**[21:26] ---**
Mio-chan's here.
Rin-chan and Uzuki-chan too!
**[21:31] ---**
You just noticed?
**[21:32] ---**
They've been here.
**[21:34] ---**
Sorry. It's because they were
all frogs until a minute ago...
**[21:39] ---**
Then it couldn't be helped.
**[21:42] ---**
Let's announce the results!
**[21:47] ---**
What? A tie?
You must all really get along.
**[21:52] ---**
Then they'll split
the self-promotion time.
**[21:55] ---**
And they can share
the punishment too.
**[21:59] ---**
We never heard that!
**[22:01] ---**
Because I was
told not to say a thing.
**[22:04] ---**
So it'll be a special bungee episode
next week with Teams Candy and Baseball.
**[22:12] ---**
We get to work again.
**[22:16] ---**
Oh, come on!
**[22:18] ---**
That's not what I was going for!
**[22:22] ---**
SELF-PROMOTION TIME
**[22:28] ---**
To everyone watching...
**[22:31] ---**
One, two...
**[22:32] ---**
We're Candy Island!
**[22:34] ---**
The song you're hearing
is our debut single,
**[22:38] ---**
released just the other day,
"Happy Happy Days."
**[22:43] ---**
Um, the reason why we say "happy"
twice is the more happiness, the better.
**[22:50] ---**
I'd be happy
if it reaches everyone.
**[22:53] ---**
It's a good song. Please listen to it!
**[22:55] ---**
Please do!
**[22:57] ---**
Also, we're retiring!
**[23:01] ---**
What the heck?
**[23:03] ---**

**[00:01] ---**
Wow!
**[00:03] ---**
Yeah, it's ready!
**[00:05] ---**
Cute, isn't it?
**[00:07] ---**
PicaPica Pop, nya...
**[00:08] ---**
Are you going to do something?
**[00:10] ---**
We're going to tie-in with this brand.
**[00:14] ---**
They're coming out
with merchandise!
**[00:16] ---**
Lucky, nya!
**[00:18] ---**
This is to promote our CD, right?
**[00:22] ---**
Yes. During this period,
shops will be playing Dekoration.
**[00:27] ---**
In the days before
and after the CD goes on sale,
**[00:29] ---**
I want to expose it to
as many people as possible.
**[00:30] ---**
P-kun, you've got a dirty mind!
**[00:33] ---**
I'm gonna tell my sister!
**[00:37] ---**
Producer, you have a dirty mind?
**[00:39] ---**
No...
**[00:40] ---**
I think P-chan meant
exposing the CD to the media.
**[00:45] ---**
Oh, that.
**[00:48] ---**
That? What did you think he meant?
**[00:49] ---**
You're still too young, Miria-chan, nya.
**[00:52] ---**
I'm totally okay with
exposing myself to a lot of people.
**[00:57] ---**
You can do what you want with me, P-kun.
**[00:59] ---**
Cool!
**[01:02] ---**
I'll look into it.
**[01:05] ---**
Oh, P-kun, you're all business!
**[01:07] ---**
It looks like they are having fun.
**[01:10] ---**
They're just toying with him.
**[01:13] ---**
In conjunction with
the sale of tie-in goods,
**[01:15] ---**
you'll all take part in an event.
**[01:17] ---**
Event?!
**[01:18] ---**
A concert?!
**[01:20] ---**
Unfortunately, some locations
don't allow for singing,
**[01:24] ---**
so it's going to be a talk show.
**[01:25] ---**
Boring...
**[01:27] ---**
A talk show?
**[01:28] ---**
Um, that's where you talk
about behind-the-scenes stuff.
**[01:33] ---**
How embarrassing!
**[01:35] ---**
We have to talk about
embarrassing things?
**[01:38] ---**
Like "the first time
you ever blanked"...
**[01:43] ---**
"Blanked"?
**[01:45] ---**
Let's have a meeting beforehand
to decide what you'll talk about.
**[01:48] ---**
Okay!
**[01:50] ---**
Will it turn out okay?
**[01:52] ---**
I'm worried, nya.
**[03:25] ---**
EPISODE 10
**[03:32] ---**
Thank you for your patience.
**[03:33] ---**
And now, here's Dekoration!
**[03:36] ---**
Yoo-hoo! I'm Rika!
**[03:39] ---**
Hello! I'm Miria Akagi!
**[03:41] ---**
Hi there! I'm Kirari!
**[03:45] ---**
One-two...
**[03:46] ---**
We are Dekoration!
**[03:50] ---**
Thank you!
**[03:52] ---**
I'm thrilled that so many
of you came out here today!
**[03:55] ---**
Yeah! Let's spend a fun time together!
**[04:00] ---**
Members of Dekoration, the tie-in
merchandise certainly is cute!
**[04:04] ---**
PicaPica-san's clothes are all
so cute they make my heart sing!
**[04:08] ---**
I'm overjoyed that we got
to work with them this time.
**[04:12] ---**
I thought maybe they were a little
too cute, but this looks good, right?
**[04:18] ---**
It looks great on you, Rika-chan!
**[04:21] ---**
Cute!
**[04:23] ---**
Of course!
**[04:24] ---**
The goods go on sale today,
so by all means, get your own.
**[04:29] ---**
Now first I'd like to ask
whether the "deko" in "Dekoration"
**[04:33] ---**
is from "dekoboko", meaning
"irregular" or "uneven"?
**[04:35] ---**
That's right. As you can see when
we're standing next to each other,
**[04:38] ---**
we'll all uneven, right?
**[04:39] ---**
And our ages! I'm 11,
**[04:42] ---**
Rika-chan is 12,
**[04:43] ---**
and Kirari-chan is 17!
**[04:45] ---**
That's right!
**[04:47] ---**
I'm a middle school student!
**[04:49] ---**
Then is Kirari-san kind
of the leader of the group?
**[04:52] ---**
Yeah!
**[04:52] ---**
We always rely on her!
**[04:55] ---**
I'm glad to hear that!
**[05:01] ---**
As soon as everything is packed away,
**[05:02] ---**
we'll be moving on to the next place,
**[05:04] ---**
but for now, good work
on your first talk show.
**[05:08] ---**
Thank you!
**[05:10] ---**
P-kun, how was it?
**[05:11] ---**
Did we do okay?
**[05:14] ---**
Yes. The fans seemed
pleased, too. It was very good.
**[05:18] ---**
For first-timers, that is.
**[05:19] ---**
I guess you pass.
**[05:24] ---**
I'm sorry. Only staff
are allowed in here...
**[05:26] ---**
Sis!
**[05:28] ---**
You said you had work today!
**[05:30] ---**
I had a little free time,
so I thought I'd drop by.
**[05:33] ---**
Jougasaki-san...
**[05:35] ---**
Of course, I can be in here, right?
**[05:39] ---**
Rika, you kept glancing
at the producer too much.
**[05:42] ---**
You need to focus on the audience.
**[05:44] ---**
Right.
**[05:46] ---**
Kirari-chan, you've a good personality,
so talk more and more, bam-bam...
**[05:50] ---**
Bam-bam...
**[05:51] ---**
What about me, Mika-chan?
**[05:53] ---**
You seem like too much
of a goody-goody, Miria-chan.
**[05:56] ---**
Although you're cute,
so you get away with it.
**[05:59] ---**
You're too soft on her!
**[06:01] ---**
I'll try talking as much as
I can for the next one!
**[06:04] ---**
Me too!
**[06:05] ---**
Do your best!
**[06:07] ---**
Do you have anything, Producer?
**[06:11] ---**
I want you to involve the audience more.
**[06:14] ---**
So not only the fans but people who
are passing by will stop and watch.
**[06:19] ---**
I thought so, too!
**[06:21] ---**
Being ignored made me sad!
**[06:24] ---**
I wonder what we can do.
**[06:27] ---**
We all catch rhinoceros beetles?
**[06:29] ---**
It's not that kind of event.
**[06:31] ---**
Now get ready for your next one.
**[06:33] ---**
Okay!
**[06:34] ---**
We're leaving now.
**[06:36] ---**
Yes. All right, talk to you later.
**[06:40] ---**
What are you going
to do for the next one?
**[06:44] ---**
I thought I'd continue to let the
three of them proceed as they like.
**[06:47] ---**
What's that, delegating?
**[06:50] ---**
No. I think of Dekoration as a fun unit
that has the freedom to act for itself.
**[06:56] ---**
I want to gamble on the three of them.
**[07:00] ---**
That's fine, but it's the
producer's job to take responsibility.
**[07:05] ---**
Yes.
**[07:08] ---**
Everyone happy happy...
**[07:12] ---**
If I say "Please listen to this",
I wonder if they'll listen.
**[07:16] ---**
If you say it in a sexy voice,
that might help.
**[07:20] ---**
If you listen to me, I'll give
you a nice reward...
**[07:22] ---**
I-If you listen to me,
I'll give you a reward.
**[07:25] ---**
Find another way.
**[07:28] ---**
How can we draw the audience in?
**[07:32] ---**
I can't think of anything!
**[07:35] ---**
P-kun, give us a hint!
**[07:38] ---**
Hey, why don't we get some crepes?
**[07:42] ---**
Crepes?
**[07:43] ---**
Eating sweets will make us more excited!
**[07:46] ---**
That may be my best idea of the day!
**[07:50] ---**
I want a crepe!
**[07:51] ---**
Let's go get 'em!
**[07:52] ---**
I'd like a crepe, too!
**[07:55] ---**
P-chan, we'll make it fast so
we're not late, so what do you think?
**[08:01] ---**
Well... We do still have time.
**[08:05] ---**
Why not, as a diversion?
**[08:07] ---**
Yay!
**[08:11] ---**
We'll go directly to the site from here.
**[08:13] ---**
Okay.
**[08:14] ---**
P-kun, hurry up!
**[08:15] ---**
Come on!
**[08:17] ---**
Thank you!
**[08:21] ---**
Wow!
**[08:23] ---**
Giant sweets!
**[08:25] ---**
P-kun, get a shot.
**[08:26] ---**
All right.
**[08:29] ---**
I'm ready.
**[08:30] ---**
Say cheese.
**[08:36] ---**
Thanks!
**[08:37] ---**
I should've brought my phone, too!
**[08:41] ---**
I'll send you the photo.
**[08:42] ---**
And I'll upload it
to the blog later, too.
**[08:44] ---**
I see.
**[08:47] ---**
Can I take photos of you
three for the project's homepage?
**[08:51] ---**
Sure!
**[08:52] ---**
Make us look cute!
**[08:54] ---**
And now I'll guide you around!
**[09:12] ---**
One-two...
**[09:13] ---**
Ranko-chan!
**[09:17] ---**
Okay, I'm ready.
**[09:18] ---**
Be swallowed up by darkness!
**[09:22] ---**
This is fun, isn't it?
**[09:24] ---**
Rika-chan, is this your
first time in this area?
**[09:26] ---**
Yeah! I'm from Ikebukuro.
**[09:30] ---**
I smell something sweet!
**[09:32] ---**
Crepes?!
**[09:33] ---**
This way!
**[09:38] ---**
Want a bite?
**[09:39] ---**
Yeah!
**[09:40] ---**
Yuka-Yuka! Let's get doughnuts later!
**[09:43] ---**
Good idea!
**[09:45] ---**
What kind should I get?
**[09:47] ---**
I want one with strawberries inside!
**[09:49] ---**
Maybe I'll get chocolate and bananas!
**[09:52] ---**
I'll buy them once you decide...
**[09:55] ---**
Really?!
**[09:56] ---**
It's entertainment expenses.
**[09:58] ---**
Like you're entertaining us?
P-kun, you're fresh!
**[10:01] ---**
Entertaining us? Like on a date!
**[10:04] ---**
Date, date!
**[10:06] ---**
No, um...
**[10:09] ---**
Here.
**[10:09] ---**
Thanks!
**[10:11] ---**
It looks delicious!
**[10:12] ---**
Thank you!
**[10:15] ---**
Crepes! P-chan, P-chan!
**[10:18] ---**
Want the first bite?
**[10:21] ---**
You can have a bite of mine, too.
**[10:24] ---**
Producer,
**[10:25] ---**
aaah!
**[10:27] ---**
No, I'm...
**[10:29] ---**
Don't worry about me. Please, eat.
**[10:32] ---**
Oh?
**[10:33] ---**
Then should we eat?
**[10:35] ---**
Yeah!
**[10:36] ---**
Thank you for the food!
**[10:42] ---**
What's with that guy?
**[10:44] ---**
Weirdo...
**[10:47] ---**
How about I ask the audience
what kind of crepe they like?
**[10:51] ---**
Yeah, that could be good!
**[10:53] ---**
Producer!
**[10:55] ---**
Why aren't you walking with us?
**[10:57] ---**
He said we stand out
too much if he's with us.
**[11:00] ---**
It's cool, like he's our bodyguard!
**[11:02] ---**
I think it just looks weird!
**[11:06] ---**
This is cute!
**[11:08] ---**
Which one?
**[11:10] ---**
This is cute, too.
**[11:16] ---**
Yes?
**[11:17] ---**
Can I ask you a few questions?
**[11:21] ---**
A snapshot?
**[11:22] ---**
Yes, we're from this magazine.
**[11:25] ---**
If we could just get one shot?
**[11:27] ---**
It's not fair if they only
take your photo, Kirari-chan!
**[11:29] ---**
Take mine, too!
**[11:30] ---**
That's a cool camera!
**[11:32] ---**
Um...
**[11:33] ---**
Huh? Are you...
**[11:35] ---**
That's right! We're Dekoration
and our first single is on sale now!
**[11:39] ---**
Please give us your support!
**[11:42] ---**
Let's get out of here!
**[11:45] ---**
Sorry. Wait up, you two!
**[11:50] ---**
They were surprised, huh?
**[11:54] ---**
The real thing right in front of them...
**[11:56] ---**
You two shouldn't
just take off like that.
**[11:59] ---**
Sorry!
**[12:00] ---**
But isn't the producer supposed
to help us out at a time like that?
**[12:07] ---**
P-kun?
**[12:08] ---**
Huh? Where's the producer?
**[12:13] ---**
I wasn't taking peeping photos.
**[12:15] ---**
You were pointing your
phone at some girls, right?
**[12:18] ---**
For work...
**[12:20] ---**
What kind of work?
**[12:22] ---**
I'm a producer. I have a business card.
**[12:25] ---**
I'm sorry. I just ran
out this morning...
**[12:28] ---**
Sure you did.
**[12:30] ---**
The producer is lost!
**[12:32] ---**
I'll try calling him.
**[12:35] ---**
Sorry. Can I answer that?
**[12:37] ---**
Forget it. And get the
chance to delete data?
**[12:44] ---**
P-kun isn't answering.
**[12:46] ---**
I'll try calling the agency.
**[12:50] ---**
Yes. Please wait a moment.
**[12:53] ---**
This is Nitta from the
Cinderella Project.
**[12:56] ---**
Chihiro Sengawa-san...
**[12:57] ---**
Yes, that's right.
**[12:59] ---**
What's wrong?
**[13:00] ---**
It seems the producer
is with the police...
**[13:04] ---**
My friend...
**[13:05] ---**
D-Did something happen?!
**[13:07] ---**
Um, um, let's call 110 for starters!
**[13:11] ---**
Calm down.
**[13:13] ---**
It's busy.
**[13:15] ---**
What should we do?
**[13:16] ---**
Sis! P-kun is...
**[13:20] ---**
Got it. I'll be right there.
**[13:24] ---**
Sorry! See you tomorrow!
**[13:26] ---**
What about karaoke?
**[13:27] ---**
See you!
**[13:30] ---**
What's that guy doing?
**[13:35] ---**
The phone you have
reached is either turned off...
**[13:37] ---**
No good. Sounds like
he's got the phone off.
**[13:40] ---**
I wonder what happened to P-chan.
**[13:44] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[13:46] ---**
We lost track of him
because the two of us ran away.
**[13:52] ---**
Hug-hug!
**[13:54] ---**
It's okay! Let's go back to the
street we were on and look for P-chan.
**[13:59] ---**
This whole area is my backyard,
so we'll find him soon.
**[14:05] ---**
Okay!
**[14:07] ---**
Hello, Producer-san.
**[14:10] ---**
I'm sorry. This is a big help.
**[14:20] ---**
Hello...
**[14:24] ---**
Minami-chan, P-chan hasn't been back?
**[14:28] ---**
Sis, you're at the station? Yeah.
**[14:31] ---**
Um, what's this place called?
**[14:35] ---**
Got it. Can you come to the station?
**[14:38] ---**
Wait. Kirari-chan is...
**[14:41] ---**
She said P-chan is with the police!
**[14:43] ---**
The police?!
**[14:44] ---**
We'll go over there! Talk to you later!
**[14:46] ---**
Rika, wait!
**[14:50] ---**
The police...
**[14:53] ---**
Look for them? All over town?
**[14:55] ---**
They can't have gotten too far.
**[14:57] ---**
Wait a second!
**[14:59] ---**
I think we'd be better off staying put.
**[15:02] ---**
But...
**[15:03] ---**
When you do get through to them,
what if you went a different direction?
**[15:08] ---**
They'e not children either.
**[15:11] ---**
I know.
**[15:14] ---**
He's not here!
**[15:15] ---**
He's not here?!
**[15:18] ---**
When he said the police,
he didn't mean the police station?
**[15:22] ---**
It's busy!
**[15:24] ---**
It shows that he called us too, right?
**[15:26] ---**
Yeah. I wonder what happened to P-kun.
**[15:29] ---**
It seems he was here
until a little while ago.
**[15:31] ---**
Really?
**[15:32] ---**
Let's look for him as
we head back to the station.
**[15:36] ---**
My sis is at the station,
anyway, so this'll work out.
**[15:40] ---**
There was a call from Kirari-chan.
**[15:43] ---**
When was it?
**[15:45] ---**
Just a little while ago.
**[15:46] ---**
I told her you were with the police,
so they probably went there.
**[15:51] ---**
Understood. Thank you.
**[15:54] ---**
Oh, and...
**[15:57] ---**
Can anyone over there come here?
**[15:59] ---**
He's not here...
**[16:01] ---**
Jeez!
**[16:03] ---**
Are P-chan and Mika-chan here?
**[16:07] ---**
Sis!
**[16:08] ---**
Rika! Where are you right now?
**[16:10] ---**
At the station...
**[16:11] ---**
You went to the station? Idiot!
**[16:13] ---**
Why didn't you stay where you were?
**[16:15] ---**
You're the one who said...
**[16:16] ---**
No excuses!
**[16:19] ---**
Producer!
**[16:20] ---**
Miria-chan!
**[16:22] ---**
Hey!
**[16:24] ---**
Rika! Rika?!
**[16:28] ---**
Rika...
**[16:34] ---**
Thank you all for coming.
**[16:37] ---**
You haven't found them yet?
**[16:39] ---**
No. I think we will soon...
**[16:43] ---**
...but if we don't in time,
will you cover for them?
**[16:47] ---**
Yes.
**[16:48] ---**
It's no trouble.
**[16:50] ---**
Um... Are we supposed to wear this?
**[16:54] ---**
Unless you have something else to wear?
**[16:58] ---**
I should never have
answered the phone...
**[17:04] ---**
Wait! Producer!
**[17:09] ---**
Sorry!
**[17:10] ---**
Miria-chan!
**[17:12] ---**
It wasn't him.
**[17:14] ---**
Everyone in a suit
looks like P-chan, right?
**[17:18] ---**
It's understandable!
**[17:21] ---**
The next show is going to start!
**[17:23] ---**
We have to get going!
**[17:24] ---**
What about the producer?
**[17:26] ---**
I'm worried about him,
**[17:28] ---**
but I think he'd be seeing red
if we let the audience just sit there.
**[17:41] ---**
Jougasaki-san! What are you...?
**[17:44] ---**
Because you didn't
keep an eye on them, Rika...
**[17:47] ---**
Did something happen?!
**[17:49] ---**
You're asking me?!
**[17:51] ---**
You're their producer, right?
**[17:53] ---**
You need to watch them!
**[17:54] ---**
Idiot!
**[17:56] ---**
Calm down.
**[17:57] ---**
Look me in the eyes
and tell me what happened.
**[18:01] ---**
Sis was mad...
**[18:05] ---**
I bet Mika-chan and P-chan
are both waiting at the venue.
**[18:10] ---**
And if we hurry, we'll
still make it in time.
**[18:12] ---**
So both of you too, Kirarin Dash!
**[18:16] ---**
R-Right!
**[18:17] ---**
Kirarin Dash!
**[18:21] ---**
Rika-chan, your foot!
**[18:23] ---**
Have we been walking for too long?
**[18:27] ---**
Style requires suffering.
**[18:29] ---**
I have a band-aid.
**[18:31] ---**
Thanks.
**[18:34] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[18:36] ---**
This is because I led you
around here and there.
**[18:40] ---**
If we'd just stayed in one place
instead of going to search for P-chan.
**[18:45] ---**
In fact, if I hadn't suggested getting
crepes P-chan wouldn't have gotten lost,
**[18:52] ---**
and you two wouldn't have...
**[18:57] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[19:01] ---**
It's okay!
**[19:02] ---**
That's right! It's not
your fault, Kirari-chan!
**[19:05] ---**
And my foot is fine.
**[19:07] ---**
Let's dash!
**[19:09] ---**
But...
**[19:11] ---**
Rika-chan, Rika-chan!
**[19:17] ---**
What do you think?
**[19:18] ---**
All right, fine.
**[19:21] ---**
Kirari-chan, um...
**[19:23] ---**
Would you carry me?
**[19:27] ---**
She can't dash, but the
performance can start now!
**[19:31] ---**
Then we won't be late, right?
**[19:34] ---**
The three of us will really stand out,
but let's use it to our advantage!
**[19:37] ---**
Kirari-chan!
**[19:38] ---**
Kirari-chan!
**[19:40] ---**
Let's go!
**[19:42] ---**
Okay!
**[19:45] ---**
I was talking to her when
the line suddenly went dead.
**[19:47] ---**
I looked for them at the
station, but they weren't there...
**[19:49] ---**
I don't know what to do.
**[19:52] ---**
Would you head for the
next venue, Jougasaki-san?
**[19:57] ---**
But...
**[19:58] ---**
It's almost time for the show to start.
**[20:00] ---**
If it's simply a matter
of crossed wires,
**[20:03] ---**
I'm sure they'll put work first.
**[20:07] ---**
What about you?
**[20:08] ---**
Just in case, I'll go one more time
to places they likely could've gone to.
**[20:16] ---**
Let's go.
**[20:25] ---**
You're sure to shine
**[20:27] ---**
After all,
**[20:28] ---**
we're waving and calling out
**[20:30] ---**
to a future
**[20:32] ---**
that's 100 times better
**[20:35] ---**
It's okay because we're together!
**[20:38] ---**
Thank you!
**[20:40] ---**
If you're interested in us,
follow us now!
**[20:43] ---**
We're Dekoration!
**[20:45] ---**
Please give us your support!
**[20:47] ---**
This is how they're
involving the audience...
**[20:51] ---**
P-kun! Sis!
**[20:56] ---**
Sorry we're late!
**[20:58] ---**
I'm really sorry.
**[20:59] ---**
I'm glad you made it in time!
**[21:02] ---**
Saved...
**[21:03] ---**
It is good to see you back, my friends.
**[21:06] ---**
Okay, get ready.
**[21:08] ---**
Sorry I got a little crazy there...
**[21:11] ---**
Not at all. If anyone's
to blame, it's me.
**[21:17] ---**
Um, P-chan, I'll apologize
to you later, okay?
**[21:22] ---**
Me too!
**[21:23] ---**
Me too!
**[21:25] ---**
Me too.
**[21:26] ---**
Okay! Get going!
**[21:28] ---**
Dekoration
**[21:28] ---**
Right!
**[21:29] ---**
One-two...
**[21:31] ---**
We are Dekoration!
**[21:34] ---**
The three of us will do our very best
to make all of you happy-happy!
**[21:43] ---**
You're very popular.
**[21:45] ---**
It's thanks to these two!
**[21:48] ---**
It was a lot of fun, like a parade!
**[21:51] ---**
We had a little trouble along the way...
**[21:54] ---**
Trouble?!
**[21:55] ---**
What was it?!
**[21:56] ---**
That's a secret!
**[21:59] ---**
It was a mess, right?
**[22:01] ---**
That's right!
**[22:02] ---**
But no matter what the situation...
**[22:05] ---**
...you've gotta smile...
**[22:07] ---**
...and be happy-happy and cheerful!
**[22:09] ---**
Otherwise, something
wonderful will get away!
**[22:13] ---**
Now this is more like it.
**[22:15] ---**
Yes. Better than I'd hoped.
**[22:18] ---**
Why don't you try smiling, too?
**[22:20] ---**
Here.
**[22:21] ---**
Grin!
**[22:22] ---**
G-Grin...
**[22:26] ---**
Unsurprisingly, I sense a
sinister aura from you, my friend!
**[22:29] ---**
D-Don't call him "sinister"!
**[23:56] ---**

**[00:02] ---**
All right, Uzuki-chan, smile.
**[00:04] ---**
Okay, that's great.
**[00:07] ---**
The age is demanding cat ears, nya.
**[00:10] ---**
It's demanding rock.
**[00:12] ---**
- Cat ears!
- Rock!
**[00:14] ---**
Cat ears!
**[00:16] ---**
Rock!
**[00:17] ---**
Cat ears!
**[00:19] ---**
At it again...
**[00:21] ---**
Putting those two
in a unit was a bad idea.
**[00:25] ---**
Their images are
totally the opposite.
**[00:30] ---**
What's the producer thinking?
**[00:33] ---**
Cat ears...
**[00:35] ---**
Rock...
**[02:09] ---**
Unit debut?
**[02:12] ---**
Yes.
**[02:13] ---**
The two of us?
**[02:16] ---**
Yes.
**[02:16] ---**
Why? It makes no sense, nya!
**[02:19] ---**
We're not a good
match from any angle!
**[02:22] ---**
Is that right?
**[02:30] ---**
I want to be a cute,
pop, cat-eared idol, so...
**[02:35] ---**
So...
**[02:36] ---**
I don't want to do rock, nya!
**[02:40] ---**
A-And I don't want anything
to do with stupid cat ears!
**[02:48] ---**
We've already got a song for you...
**[02:58] ---**
We're holding off on lyrics until
I ask you two about your image.
**[03:03] ---**
What do you think?
**[03:07] ---**
It's perfect for
a cat-ear dance, nya!
**[03:10] ---**
A rock arrangement would be cooler!
**[03:13] ---**
- It's cuter with cat ears, nya!
- Will they be okay?
**[03:17] ---**
I hope it works out for them...
**[03:23] ---**
I love this cute design
and poppy colors, nya!
**[03:27] ---**
This refreshing mint strikes
a chord with my hot rock soul...
**[03:32] ---**
The coolness in my throat
after shouting rocks!
**[03:36] ---**
Just walking down the street with one
gives my girl power an instant boost!
**[03:41] ---**
Talk like that doesn't get across the
product's appeal. Focus on its cuteness.
**[03:48] ---**
What are you saying?
The cool feeling's the best part.
**[03:52] ---**
Cuteness.
**[03:53] ---**
Coolness.
**[03:54] ---**
Cuteness!
**[03:55] ---**
Coolness!
**[03:56] ---**
Cuteness!
**[04:00] ---**
We want you framed as a chummy duo, so
pick out outfits over there and change.
**[04:07] ---**
Okay!
**[04:13] ---**
Well? Looks good?
**[04:15] ---**
Forget that! Put on cat ears
and a tail so we match, nya!
**[04:19] ---**
Why should I? You match me.
**[04:22] ---**
Nya! We're supposed
to be a chummy duo, nya!
**[04:30] ---**
Okay. Good job, both of you.
**[04:33] ---**
Miku-chan and Riina-chan are always
together lately, for work and lessons.
**[04:39] ---**
It seems they're working
on teamwork before their CD debut.
**[04:43] ---**
They fight like every five minutes.
**[04:46] ---**
They want to work that badly?
**[04:49] ---**
I'm impressed.
**[04:53] ---**
I wonder why the producer
specifically put those two together.
**[04:59] ---**
Maybe it's part of his game plan.
**[05:02] ---**
Let's ask P-kun! I'll go!
**[05:05] ---**
Me too!
**[05:20] ---**
Idol festival?
**[05:22] ---**
There's such a thing?
**[05:23] ---**
Wow! Everyone gets to participate?
**[05:27] ---**
It's still in the proposal stage.
**[05:29] ---**
I'll announce it at some point,
so please don't make a fuss.
**[05:34] ---**
Idol fest?
**[05:35] ---**
Yeah! It was right
there on his monitor!
**[05:39] ---**
We all get to be
up on stage together!
**[05:44] ---**
This'll start a cat-ear boom, nya!
**[05:47] ---**
This could be my chance to show
everyone how awesome rock is!
**[05:53] ---**
You really have
nothing in common.
**[05:56] ---**
But each unit will be
performing at the fest, right?
**[06:00] ---**
If you two can't get along as a duo,
they probably won't let you participate.
**[06:06] ---**
We can't all perform?
**[06:08] ---**
Y-You don't really think...
**[06:10] ---**
But maybe...
**[06:20] ---**
REJECTED
**[06:37] ---**
P-chan, please!
**[06:38] ---**
Please let us debut as solo
artists instead of as a unit!
**[06:43] ---**
Why pair us in the first place?
**[06:45] ---**
The two of us were left over,
so you just randomly put us together?
**[06:50] ---**
That never crossed my mind. I think
you two are a good match for a unit.
**[06:57] ---**
We're not!
**[06:59] ---**
If you insist it won't
work out, I won't push.
**[07:03] ---**
But in that case, one of you will
have to postpone your CD debut.
**[07:09] ---**
Not good, nya. Then maybe
only one of us can be in the fest.
**[07:13] ---**
What now then?
**[07:15] ---**
I wanna take part in it, nya!
**[07:17] ---**
I do too of course!
**[07:19] ---**
What's wrong?
**[07:21] ---**
O-On second thought,
a unit's not so bad.
**[07:25] ---**
We'll give it one more shot.
**[07:27] ---**
Yeah, one more!
**[07:28] ---**
I don't think we know
each other that well yet.
**[07:32] ---**
More communication, nya!
**[07:34] ---**
Then why not live with each other?
**[07:37] ---**
I live with my sister,
and we get along really well!
**[07:41] ---**
Good idea.
**[07:43] ---**
Miku-chan lives in the dorm,
so Riina-chan could try staying over.
**[07:50] ---**
That sounds like fun!
**[07:54] ---**
That may be a good idea indeed.
**[07:57] ---**
346 PRODUCTION
AOYAMA GIRLS' DORMITORY
**[08:00] ---**
What'd you bring all that for?
**[08:02] ---**
This is one week's worth.
**[08:07] ---**
I don't have space for that much!
**[08:09] ---**
I spent a while getting it
down to the essentials.
**[08:16] ---**
Huh. This is actually
kind of a rockin' place.
**[08:20] ---**
There's only one bed, so you can
sleep on a futon on the floor, nya.
**[08:25] ---**
Oh, sure.
**[08:27] ---**
Still, all these boxes...
**[08:31] ---**
Why all the headphones?
**[08:33] ---**
That's my precious collection.
**[08:36] ---**
One is enough, nya!
**[08:38] ---**
You've got tons
of cat ears, right?
**[08:41] ---**
They're my stock-in-trade!
**[08:43] ---**
My headphones are like that.
**[08:47] ---**
Hanging a poster on my wall, nya!
**[08:51] ---**
What's wrong with that?
**[08:54] ---**
It's morning, nya!
Wake up! Wake up!
**[09:00] ---**
I always skip breakfast...
**[09:04] ---**
Breakfast is the source of energy.
Hurry up, eat, and get to school!
**[09:09] ---**
W-What's with the sauce?
Fried eggs get soy sauce!
**[09:13] ---**
That's heresy! Plain sauce for sure!
**[09:15] ---**
Soy sauce!
**[09:16] ---**
- Plain sauce! Plain sauce!
- Soy sauce!
**[09:26] ---**
The cafeteria closes at eight. Let's
hit the supermarket since it's late.
**[09:32] ---**
Oh, okay.
**[09:35] ---**
We get good deals on
side dishes this late, 50 yen off.
**[09:39] ---**
You eat that much?
**[09:41] ---**
The body's an idol's asset,
**[09:43] ---**
so I always try to get 30 different
kinds of dishes for dinner, nya.
**[09:53] ---**
I love how much space there is.
**[09:57] ---**
I'm ready to get out.
**[09:59] ---**
You're not warm enough yet!
**[10:01] ---**
First count to 100!
**[10:03] ---**
Jeez, you're annoying.
**[10:09] ---**
- Miku-han. Good evening.
- Um, is it crowded in there?
**[10:14] ---**
Totally empty, nya!
**[10:16] ---**
Thank you.
**[10:18] ---**
- See you later.
- See you later, nya!
**[10:24] ---**
That was Sae Kobayakawa-chan
and Miho Kohinata-chan?
**[10:28] ---**
They're pretty famous
but seem so normal...
**[10:32] ---**
Didn't know you were such a fangirl.
**[10:34] ---**
I-I'm not!
**[10:36] ---**
I was thinking that natural
feeling is pretty rockin'...
**[10:40] ---**
"Rockin'" just sounds
like an excuse to me.
**[10:44] ---**
How so?
**[10:47] ---**
I'm Riina Tada with 346 Pro.
**[10:50] ---**
My goal's to become a rock idol.
No one loves rock more!
**[10:55] ---**
Thanks for your consideration.
**[11:02] ---**
Done already, nya? How'd it go?
**[11:05] ---**
So-so, I guess?
**[11:10] ---**
It's okay, nya! I'm sure we'll make it!
I'll put cat ears on and charm them!
**[11:18] ---**
- Yeah, good luck to you too.
- Number three, please.
**[11:22] ---**
That's me!
**[11:26] ---**
Guess this'll take a while.
**[11:28] ---**
Nya! I'm so nervous, nya!
**[11:31] ---**
You can go on home.
**[11:41] ---**
I'm back... and exhausted, nya.
**[11:44] ---**
Welcome home.
**[11:48] ---**
Whatcha doing?
**[11:49] ---**
I thought all that supermarket prepared
food wasn't good, so I cooked for us.
**[11:55] ---**
Riina-chan, you cook, nya?
**[11:57] ---**
Once in a while.
**[12:00] ---**
It smells good.
What's on the menu?
**[12:06] ---**
Boiled flounder!
**[12:09] ---**
It's one of my signature dishes.
Wait a few. Almost done.
**[12:13] ---**
But what's wrong?
**[12:20] ---**
I can't stand fish, nya!
**[12:22] ---**
No way! But the cat ears...
**[12:24] ---**
They're two different things!
You should've made a meat dish!
**[12:28] ---**
Excuse me? You tell me
that now, after it's done?
**[12:47] ---**
I made fish because
I figured you like it...
**[12:59] ---**
I was out of line before, nya.
**[13:02] ---**
This mint candy will
put you in a good mood.
**[13:06] ---**
Sorry, I'll pass. Mints are
spicy, which I don't like.
**[13:10] ---**
You said mints were cool and the best!
**[13:13] ---**
That was for a campaign.
**[13:15] ---**
Most prefer sweet stuff, no?
**[13:17] ---**
How's that rockin'?
**[13:19] ---**
I-If I think it's rock, it's rock!
**[13:23] ---**
What I'm saying is
rock comes from the heart.
**[13:27] ---**
Without a passionate heart,
fans won't follow you, right?
**[13:31] ---**
Cuteness that makes people
happy on sight is an idol's charm!
**[13:36] ---**
That's why I wear cat ears!
**[13:37] ---**
Cat ears don't go with rock.
**[13:40] ---**
You should play soulful guitar licks.
**[13:43] ---**
Why don't you play some
of those "soulful licks" for me, nya?
**[13:48] ---**
I-I'm still learning how to play...
**[13:51] ---**
If you can't play, don't bring them!
**[13:53] ---**
I'm learning!
**[13:55] ---**
Okay okay okay!
**[13:56] ---**
Y-You shouldn't fight...
**[13:59] ---**
I thought living together
would bring them closer...
**[14:03] ---**
Not much is different...
**[14:10] ---**
I'm okay. I said
you didn't have to call.
**[14:14] ---**
You don't need to worry
about me. Things are going fine.
**[14:21] ---**
I'll talk to you soon, Mom.
**[14:42] ---**
Idols who can sing?
**[14:45] ---**
Yes.
**[14:47] ---**
The plan was to have them sing
for our event in two days...
**[14:51] ---**
What's up?
**[14:56] ---**
I was hoping 346 Pro would
have singing idols who could fill in.
**[15:03] ---**
Sorry, but it's
just too short notice.
**[15:07] ---**
Excuse me!
**[15:09] ---**
Would you let us do it?
**[15:14] ---**
We've never even sung together before!
Why'd you volunteer for that?
**[15:19] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[15:21] ---**
But I didn't
want to pass up a chance.
**[15:24] ---**
Chance?
**[15:27] ---**
We still haven't gotten
on the same page yet.
**[15:32] ---**
I really want
to participate in the idol fest.
**[15:36] ---**
But in the end, that's not a good
reason to force us into a unit.
**[15:41] ---**
I want to see for myself why
the producer put us together.
**[15:47] ---**
And if it's clear that
we can't make it work,
**[15:52] ---**
I want you to make your debut first!
**[15:59] ---**
The event is in two days.
**[16:02] ---**
Even with the song, there
aren't any lyrics yet.
**[16:05] ---**
W-Well...
**[16:08] ---**
We can just write it in two days.
**[16:11] ---**
Riina-chan!
**[16:12] ---**
I'm interested in songwriting anyway.
**[16:15] ---**
And I feel the same way you do.
**[16:23] ---**
You're serious then?
**[16:26] ---**
Yes!
**[16:27] ---**
All right. I'll handle the outfits
and accompaniment for the song.
**[16:32] ---**
Please have the lyrics ready
by morning two days from now.
**[16:37] ---**
Right!
**[16:57] ---**
"Burning heartbeat... Rock you...
**[17:01] ---**
Kiss you... Sad rain
drenches the town...
**[17:04] ---**
Now is the time to run
through a rockin' night..."
**[17:10] ---**
What? Trying to pick a fight?
Got your own ideas?
**[17:14] ---**
Of course!
**[17:18] ---**
"Nya, nya... Goro goro, nyan...
Deliver a lovely smile, nyan"...
**[17:24] ---**
What is that?
**[17:26] ---**
It's better than yours!
**[17:27] ---**
Even after being all smug about it!
**[17:30] ---**
I'd be too embarrassed to sing that!
**[17:38] ---**
Here, soy sauce.
**[17:40] ---**
Thanks.
**[17:59] ---**
Here is the source of great power!
**[18:01] ---**
We brought you snacks.
**[18:04] ---**
Anyan! Ranko-chan!
**[18:05] ---**
Thank you!
**[18:29] ---**
I don't get it!
**[18:30] ---**
I do, nya!
**[18:32] ---**
How do I sing "nyan"
or "goro" with feeling?
**[18:35] ---**
I don't know what your
lyrics mean either, nya!
**[18:42] ---**
Let's go back to the drawing board.
**[18:44] ---**
Yeah.
**[18:56] ---**
There's a pretty good crowd here!
**[18:58] ---**
And now let's play
rock-paper-scissors for a prize!
**[19:04] ---**
You didn't rehearse much.
Will you be okay?
**[19:07] ---**
Yes! We'll be fine.
**[19:09] ---**
Leave it to us, nya!
**[19:12] ---**
So I can have faith in you two.
**[19:14] ---**
Of course!
**[19:17] ---**
Do your best.
**[19:18] ---**
Right!
**[19:19] ---**
Okay, everyone, thank you for playing
the rock-paper-scissors tournament!
**[19:26] ---**
We really are on different pages, huh?
**[19:28] ---**
That's why our unit's unique, nya.
**[19:32] ---**
Well, shall we go?
**[19:33] ---**
Yeah!
**[19:36] ---**
It's gonna start!
**[19:39] ---**
Yay!
**[19:40] ---**
- I'm Miku...
- ...and I'm Riina!
**[19:43] ---**
Thanks for coming!
**[19:45] ---**
Miku and Riina?
**[19:47] ---**
I've never heard of them.
**[19:50] ---**
What a great crowd! Today, we'll show
you lots and lots and lots of our charm!
**[19:57] ---**
Follow us to the end, everyone!
**[20:00] ---**
Now let's see more spirit, nya!
**[20:02] ---**
Everyone, say nya!
**[20:05] ---**
One, two...
**[20:06] ---**
Nya!
**[20:08] ---**
Nya...
**[20:10] ---**
Huh? That's strange!
I couldn't hear you!
**[20:13] ---**
Say it loud enough for
Miku-chan's cat ears to pick up!
**[20:18] ---**
Okay, let's try it once
more, nya! One, two...
**[20:22] ---**
Nya!
**[20:23] ---**
Nya...
**[20:34] ---**
Nya!
**[20:36] ---**
One more time, nya!
**[20:40] ---**
Nya! Nya! Nya! Nya!
**[20:42] ---**
Nya! Nya! Nya! Nya! Nya! Nya!
**[20:46] ---**
Nya! Nya! Nya! Nya! Nya!
**[20:50] ---**
Nya!
**[20:55] ---**
Okay!
**[20:56] ---**
Here we go!
**[20:58] ---**
One, two... "Over"!
**[22:08] ---**
So it's okay for you two
to make your CD debut together?
**[22:13] ---**
Yes, I think we can,
respecting our quirks as we go.
**[22:18] ---**
I'll take good care of
my cat ears and rock, nya!
**[22:24] ---**
Producer-san, can I pass this idol fest
proposal on to the rest of the company?
**[22:31] ---**
Sorry, we haven't decided
on their unit name yet...
**[22:38] ---**
It's not Asterisk?
**[22:42] ---**
No, I just put that mark as a
placeholder until we decided their name.
**[22:49] ---**
Really?
**[22:50] ---**
Asterisk?
**[22:52] ---**
What's that?
**[22:55] ---**
In Latin, it means "little star."
**[22:59] ---**
Asterisk... That kind of rocks.
**[23:01] ---**
It's cute, nya!
**[23:05] ---**
I think that settles it.
**[23:10] ---**
Then let's go with
"Asterisk" as your unit name.
**[23:14] ---**
Right!
**[23:16] ---**
Also,
**[23:18] ---**
the costume designs
for your debut song are ready.
**[23:21] ---**
The cat ears are adorable!
**[23:26] ---**
Huh, it is cute.
This is kind of rockin' too.
**[23:32] ---**
- How's this rockin'?
- What?
**[23:34] ---**
I told you if
it feels like rock, it is.
**[23:37] ---**
- That's no policy, nya!
- It seems you both approve.
**[23:42] ---**
- We're through!
- They're fighting again.
**[23:45] ---**
- They never learn.
- Then no CD debut.
**[23:47] ---**
- They really are close.
- Asterisk is back together again, nya!
**[23:52] ---**
They may be a good combination.

**[00:16] ---**
Shimamu, off the floor.
We're going again!
**[00:20] ---**
You're sure in the mood.
**[00:22] ---**
Of course!
**[00:23] ---**
The upcoming fest's
a big event for 346 Production!
**[00:27] ---**
We've gotta perfect this at training
camp so we can put on an awesome show!
**[00:33] ---**
Excuse me.
**[00:35] ---**
Yes?
**[00:37] ---**
Producer wants everyone to gather
because he has important announcement.
**[00:42] ---**
An important announcement?
**[00:45] ---**
This training camp to prepare for
the idol fest is really paying off.
**[00:51] ---**
I'd like you to keep working
hard for the remainder,
**[00:55] ---**
but I'm going away on another
assignment till tomorrow night.
**[01:01] ---**
I asked Nitta-san to act
as coordinator here in my absence.
**[01:14] ---**
Please follow Nitta-san's
directions while I'm gone, everyone.
**[01:19] ---**
Nitta-san, as your first job
as coordinator, if you would...
**[01:25] ---**
At the fest,
**[01:27] ---**
we won't just be featured as units
but will sing a new song together.
**[01:32] ---**
Singing together sounds fun!
**[01:35] ---**
I wonder what kind of song it is.
**[01:36] ---**
It's so exciting!
**[01:39] ---**
Even more work...
**[01:42] ---**
From today, morning practice is for
units, and afternoon for the new song.
**[01:48] ---**
It'll be a challenge to master the group
song for the fest, but do your best.
**[01:54] ---**
Leave it to us!
We'll have it down pat!
**[01:57] ---**
Dependable words.
**[01:59] ---**
Well, Nitta-san,
the rest is up to you.
**[02:02] ---**
Okay.
**[02:03] ---**
So let's practice the group song now.
**[03:59] ---**
No matter how many times we practice
the choreography, we're always off.
**[04:04] ---**
Then let's do it till we're in sync!
Come on, one more time!
**[04:08] ---**
Right. I'll do my best!
**[04:16] ---**
Learning the group song is tough.
**[04:19] ---**
It was all I could do to remember the
steps, but I couldn't keep up at all.
**[04:25] ---**
We just practiced once so far.
**[04:27] ---**
That's right!
**[04:28] ---**
The fest's a perfect chance for revenge,
so we have to master the moves here.
**[04:35] ---**
Revenge?
**[04:37] ---**
I couldn't enjoy the live performance
to promote our CD debut at all.
**[04:44] ---**
Even though I'm the leader,
I just caused trouble for everyone.
**[04:48] ---**
I-I'm still disappointed I wasn't able
to keep smiling to the end too!
**[04:54] ---**
Maybe our performance isn't over yet.
**[05:00] ---**
Let's just give our all in
the idol fest's group and unit songs!
**[05:05] ---**
No matter what kind of performance
it is, we'll go all out. Okay?
**[05:14] ---**
It's hard enough
just singing one song,
**[05:17] ---**
but another on top of that...
Will we be okay?
**[05:20] ---**
But that gives us even more exposure.
**[05:24] ---**
You saw the rehearsal today.
**[05:27] ---**
It'll be tough getting us all in sync
with a group song that was sprung on us.
**[05:35] ---**
You may be right...
**[05:38] ---**
And to have this crammed down our
throats, only to screw up at the fest...
**[05:44] ---**
I-I'm sorry!
**[05:47] ---**
Don't, Chieri-chan!
You'll cut your finger!
**[05:50] ---**
Are you okay?
**[05:52] ---**
What's wrong?
**[05:55] ---**
Um, I...
**[05:58] ---**
I'll be right back
with a broom and dustpan.
**[06:02] ---**
Miku-chan, you're against
doing the group song?
**[06:06] ---**
It's not like I'm against it,
but I think it may be kind of tough...
**[06:12] ---**
Yeah. Besides, we don't even have
our unit song down perfectly yet.
**[06:17] ---**
Huh? I thought you
disbanded your unit.
**[06:21] ---**
We didn't!
**[06:22] ---**
But at dinner tonight...
**[06:25] ---**
Who has rice with okonomiyaki?
**[06:28] ---**
Eating it with ketchup's weirder, nya!
**[06:31] ---**
You put mayo on it,
so ketchup's fine!
**[06:34] ---**
That kind of twisted logic
doesn't work on me, nya!
**[06:38] ---**
We're through!
**[06:41] ---**
That was...
**[06:43] ---**
- T-This and that are unrelated, nya!
- That's right!
**[06:47] ---**
I mean, that's not the issue.
**[06:51] ---**
Right now, I want
to focus on our unit.
**[06:55] ---**
Since we were
the last one to be formed.
**[07:08] ---**
Kirari-chan.
**[07:11] ---**
What's wrong?
**[07:13] ---**
You look down.
**[07:21] ---**
Actually...
**[07:25] ---**
I see. That's what Chieri-chan
and Kanako-chan said...
**[07:31] ---**
I thought it would be fun
for us to all sing together,
**[07:37] ---**
but rehearsing
as a unit is tough, right?
**[07:41] ---**
When I think that some of the girls
are nervous about doing both well...
**[07:47] ---**
You become unsure of whether it's a good
idea to start on a group song, huh?
**[08:05] ---**
I'm supposed to be
the coordinator for everyone.
**[08:10] ---**
How's it going?
**[08:12] ---**
Oh, being the coordinator is fine,
but I'm worried about the group song.
**[08:19] ---**
We don't have
much time until the fest,
**[08:23] ---**
and starting now seems kind of iffy.
**[08:27] ---**
I understand.
Yes, it is rather short notice.
**[08:32] ---**
But...
**[08:34] ---**
Instead of just participating,
**[08:37] ---**
won't you try climbing one
more new step with everyone?
**[08:44] ---**
I'd like to see you all do that.
**[08:51] ---**
You cannot sleep?
**[08:58] ---**
I have something on my mind...
**[09:03] ---**
рукопожатие.
**[09:13] ---**
When I could not sleep,
Mama often did this for me.
**[09:21] ---**
Do you think you can
sleep this way, Minami?
**[09:26] ---**
Yes. Spasiba.
**[09:39] ---**
I couldn't really sync up with
everyone else's dancing today.
**[09:43] ---**
Maybe it's because I've never
performed with anyone before...
**[10:06] ---**
My batteries are dead...
**[10:10] ---**
Shimamu, no time to be pooped!
**[10:14] ---**
Right... I'll do my best!
**[10:17] ---**
Everyone up! Let's take it
from the top once more.
**[10:22] ---**
But is this even doable?
**[10:26] ---**
It's like we're all dancing,
but no one's dancing together.
**[10:30] ---**
That's why we have to practice more!
Or we won't be in time for the fest!
**[10:36] ---**
I feel like we'll be wasting
energy if we keep this up.
**[10:40] ---**
That's not...
**[10:43] ---**
Wait.
**[10:45] ---**
Let's take a little break.
**[11:19] ---**
Okay, break's over.
**[11:22] ---**
We'll change the schedule today and have
a group practice special program now.
**[11:29] ---**
Special program?
**[11:31] ---**
Everyone, go outside please.
**[11:36] ---**
A relay?
**[11:38] ---**
Right. The units will be competing.
**[11:41] ---**
This is the baton.
**[11:44] ---**
Hold on!
**[11:45] ---**
This is no time for races! If we
don't practice the new song more...
**[11:51] ---**
I'm in charge today,
so please follow my instructions.
**[11:58] ---**
That's what the producer
said yesterday, didn't he?
**[12:03] ---**
Hey, Minami, is this necessary?
**[12:07] ---**
You'll see when we do it.
**[12:11] ---**
Miku-chan, Riina-chan.
**[12:14] ---**
This event has three people per
group, so I'd like you to guide things.
**[12:20] ---**
G-Guide things?
**[12:21] ---**
I heard you two were great MCs at that
last event, so I thought it was perfect.
**[12:28] ---**
Well...
**[12:29] ---**
At the time, I was desperate...
**[12:31] ---**
I'm counting on you,
so keep everyone revved up.
**[12:35] ---**
Ranko-chan, you're with us.
**[12:39] ---**
Let us do our best together.
**[12:42] ---**
Right...
**[12:43] ---**
Okay, everyone, split up into your
units and decide the order of runners.
**[12:51] ---**
On your marks!
**[12:53] ---**
Get set!
**[12:54] ---**
- Nya!
- Rock 'n' roll!
**[12:56] ---**
Every idol started off at once, nya!
**[12:59] ---**
Miria-chan, do your best!
**[13:01] ---**
Leave 'em in the dust!
**[13:09] ---**
The first runner's back, nya!
**[13:12] ---**
- Here.
- Here!
**[13:13] ---**
Why're we doing this?
**[13:15] ---**
Here!
**[13:24] ---**
What the nya?
Mio's passing everyone!
**[13:27] ---**
She said we'd see when we did it...
**[13:29] ---**
Shiburin!
**[13:34] ---**
Oh no! Rin dropped the baton!
**[13:39] ---**
A reversal! Minami
came up from behind, nya!
**[13:50] ---**
Goal!
**[13:52] ---**
Minami won first place!
**[13:57] ---**
- Good job.
- Good job!
**[13:59] ---**
Sorry. I was spacing out.
**[14:02] ---**
No...
**[14:03] ---**
Don't worry about it!
**[14:14] ---**
Next up is a race for candy!
**[14:16] ---**
On your marks!
**[14:19] ---**
Get set!
**[14:21] ---**
Rock 'n' roll!
**[14:32] ---**
Wow! She already
found the candy, huh?
**[14:35] ---**
She's the poster child for sweets!
**[14:38] ---**
But...
**[14:40] ---**
Mio-chan's fast!
**[14:42] ---**
Made it!
**[14:55] ---**
Next is the three-legged race!
**[14:57] ---**
The key to winning is for all three to
be in sync! This tests unit unity, nya!
**[15:04] ---**
All right, ready?
**[15:06] ---**
Rock n' roll!
**[15:07] ---**
One, two...
**[15:09] ---**
Nya nya nya!
New Generations is in the lead!
**[15:13] ---**
Followed by Dekoration and Candy Island!
**[15:17] ---**
On the other hand, in the rear is...
**[15:19] ---**
One, two, one, two...
**[15:22] ---**
I guess members suddenly
thrown together aren't in tune?
**[15:29] ---**
One, two, one, two...
**[15:31] ---**
Whoa! New Generations
crosses the finish line!
**[15:34] ---**
Followed by Dekoration and Candy Island!
**[15:38] ---**
All that's left...
**[15:44] ---**
They fell over?
**[15:45] ---**
They're trying to get up but
just can't get to their feet, nya!
**[15:52] ---**
F-Fight!
**[15:54] ---**
Hang in there!
**[15:54] ---**
- Don't give up!
- A little more!
**[15:58] ---**
Ready, set...
**[16:01] ---**
- Not giving up is rockin'!
- One, two, one, two...
**[16:06] ---**
One, two, one, two...
**[17:16] ---**
Kirari-chan!
**[17:19] ---**
You move and you lose.
That's the law of the battlefield.
**[17:26] ---**
That's waterproof?
**[18:00] ---**
Here we go!
**[18:01] ---**
First, the challenge
is to do it 30 times, nya!
**[18:05] ---**
Ready, set...
**[18:06] ---**
One! Two! Three! Four! Five!
**[18:14] ---**
I'm sorry! I messed up...
**[18:16] ---**
Don't worry about it, Chierin!
**[18:18] ---**
But it's my fault...
**[18:20] ---**
It's okay! Let's take it slow!
**[18:23] ---**
Being hasty makes you more tense.
**[18:26] ---**
Right?
**[18:27] ---**
Back to "ready, set..."
**[18:29] ---**
Ready, set...
**[18:32] ---**
Happy-happy is how we feel, right?
**[18:35] ---**
Yeah...
**[18:36] ---**
If our hearts become one...
**[18:41] ---**
Um, I mean...
**[18:43] ---**
Ranko is right.
**[18:46] ---**
If our hearts become one...
**[18:48] ---**
Right! I'll try my best!
**[18:50] ---**
Chieri-chan!
**[18:55] ---**
All right! Let's try again!
**[18:57] ---**
So you call it out, Minamin!
**[19:01] ---**
Me?
**[19:03] ---**
Please, Minami-chan!
**[19:04] ---**
Who else would do it?
**[19:08] ---**
Minami!
**[19:11] ---**
Okay!
**[19:13] ---**
Ready, set...
**[19:15] ---**
One! Two! Three! Four!
**[19:21] ---**
Five! Six! Seven! Eight!
**[19:27] ---**
Nine! Ten!
**[19:35] ---**
Now I get it.
**[19:38] ---**
Today's special program was
to bring our hearts together, wasn't it?
**[19:43] ---**
Sorry. I was so impatient before
I was just spinning my wheels.
**[19:48] ---**
No, I'm the one
who has to apologize.
**[19:52] ---**
Even though I'm the coordinator,
I went off the program.
**[19:58] ---**
Until participating in this project,
I never thought of becoming an idol.
**[20:08] ---**
It was so unforeseen that this
has been an adventure for me.
**[20:14] ---**
Meeting all of you... And then
when our unit debut was decided,
**[20:21] ---**
I was happy but also uneasy.
**[20:25] ---**
Still, I was able to split
that uneasiness in half.
**[20:30] ---**
We overcame that anxiety together,
**[20:34] ---**
and what we were able to see
was something very exciting.
**[20:38] ---**
I'm glad I went on this adventure
and dared to take that first step.
**[20:47] ---**
So I figure the next concert will be
a chance to see another new sight.
**[20:55] ---**
Not because I'm
acting as the coordinator.
**[20:58] ---**
I'm curious about what we'll all
be able to see together next time.
**[21:06] ---**
Nice...
**[21:10] ---**
I wonder what
we'll be able to see.
**[21:13] ---**
I wanna see it too.
**[23:17] ---**
I have a proposal.
**[23:20] ---**
The idol fest will be a big
performance featuring you all.
**[23:25] ---**
I would like to decide on a stage
leader to coordinate things there.
**[23:31] ---**
In that case...
**[23:36] ---**
Minamin's our leader!
**[23:38] ---**
Let's all have an adventure together!
**[23:49] ---**
Nitta-san, will you do it?
**[23:55] ---**
Yes!

**[00:13] ---**
DRESSING ROOM
**[00:15] ---**
Notice anything else in rehearsal?
**[00:17] ---**
Maybe we're still rushing a bit.
**[00:20] ---**
Given all the people.
**[00:23] ---**
Yeah. Let's try to
slow down with that a bit.
**[00:26] ---**
Anything else?
**[00:27] ---**
Yoo-hoo!
**[00:29] ---**
- Sis!
- Mika-nee!
**[00:31] ---**
Let's do our best!
**[00:32] ---**
I look forward to it!
**[00:35] ---**
Mika-nee! Watch us!
**[00:37] ---**
I promise we've gone one step
forward since that last time!
**[00:45] ---**
If it's just one step,
I might not notice.
**[00:49] ---**
Minami-chan, is there
still time to practice?
**[00:52] ---**
Yes. The group song?
**[00:54] ---**
Yeah.
**[00:55] ---**
Hold on. I'll do it too. But first,
I'll tell them about our entrance.
**[01:17] ---**
Wow...
**[01:19] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[01:21] ---**
You okay?
**[01:23] ---**
Want some water? I'll be right back.
**[01:27] ---**
It's a little hot.
**[01:29] ---**
Why don't I tell the staff?
**[01:31] ---**
Minami, shall I help you?
**[01:34] ---**
Nah, I can handle this.
**[01:36] ---**
Is everyone here?
**[01:38] ---**
Yes!
**[01:40] ---**
Let's make it a safe, fun
fest today and the highlight
**[01:44] ---**
of not just the fans' summer
but the staff, us, everyone!
**[01:48] ---**
- Get pumped up!
- Right!
**[01:51] ---**
Then get in a circle.
**[01:53] ---**
Kaede-chan, if you'd do the shout...
**[01:56] ---**
Right.
**[01:58] ---**
All right, let's rev our
engines so we can enjoy this!
**[02:02] ---**
Okay...
**[02:07] ---**
I understand. You don't know how to
react to an older colleague's punnery.
**[02:12] ---**
That was a pun?
**[02:15] ---**
Oh, yeah. Wow!
**[02:17] ---**
Gives me shivers...
**[02:18] ---**
Even though it's hot in here?
**[02:20] ---**
Cold? Because that girl is here?
**[02:24] ---**
What's here?
**[02:26] ---**
The spoon is reacting!
**[02:28] ---**
U-Um, was that a joke?
**[02:34] ---**
Come on, this isn't
getting us anywhere.
**[02:38] ---**
All right.
**[02:40] ---**
One more time.
**[02:44] ---**
Let's all do our best
at the 346 Pro Summer Idol Fest!
**[02:49] ---**
Yeah!
**[02:59] ---**
It's starting!
**[03:06] ---**
Frogs... frogs...
**[03:08] ---**
Chieri-chan, want
to practice a bit more?
**[03:12] ---**
We still have a little time.
**[03:16] ---**
I'm going to. I can't relax
just standing and waiting.
**[03:21] ---**
All right, once again, welcome to
346 Production's Summer Idol Fest!
**[03:27] ---**
What?
**[03:28] ---**
A girl from the Cinderella Project?
**[03:31] ---**
She was practicing with
me in the rehearsal room.
**[03:36] ---**
Then she said she felt sick...
**[03:39] ---**
I don't think it's a cold. It's likely
anxiety brought on a high fever.
**[03:44] ---**
Anxiety...
**[03:47] ---**
Minami worked very hard as our leader.
**[03:55] ---**
I burdened her...
**[03:56] ---**
No.
**[03:58] ---**
I stayed up
late last night practicing.
**[04:02] ---**
I'm sorry. I'm fine now.
**[04:05] ---**
- You still have a fever.
- Minami...
**[04:08] ---**
Nitta-san.
**[04:11] ---**
I can't give you
permission to perform today.
**[04:17] ---**
I apologize...
**[04:29] ---**
If Love Laika can't go on,
we'll need to reschedule things.
**[04:34] ---**
Wait! It's my own fault
that I can't go out.
**[04:39] ---**
But Anya-chan...
**[04:41] ---**
I want Anya-chan to go out alone!
**[04:45] ---**
After all, she's worked so hard...
**[04:52] ---**
Minami...
**[04:55] ---**
A stand-in?
**[04:57] ---**
For Minamin...
**[04:59] ---**
I could do a bit...
**[05:01] ---**
There's hardly any
time to rehearse.
**[05:04] ---**
Performing without rehearsing...
**[05:08] ---**
For a major show like this...
**[05:14] ---**
Um...
**[05:18] ---**
Kanzaki-san...
**[05:20] ---**
B-Beyond the second
configuration is the unknown...
**[05:26] ---**
Um... at camp...
**[05:29] ---**
During the special training...
the three of us, um...
**[05:37] ---**
Doing something together
with someone else...
**[05:44] ---**
It made me really excited.
**[05:48] ---**
I want to try doing this!
**[05:51] ---**
Producer!
**[05:53] ---**
All right.
**[05:58] ---**
Ranko...
**[06:00] ---**
Please.
**[06:17] ---**
This is pretty common.
**[06:19] ---**
You overdo it and get
a fever before the performance.
**[06:23] ---**
But you can't do
anything about it, huh?
**[06:57] ---**
It's time.
**[06:59] ---**
Are you ready?
**[07:01] ---**
Yes!
**[07:03] ---**
Then...
**[07:04] ---**
Right––
**[07:05] ---**
You're wide open!
**[07:07] ---**
W-Wha?
**[07:08] ---**
Smile, Ranko-chan!
**[07:11] ---**
You're gonna perform!
**[07:12] ---**
We'll do a smooth intro, so relax!
**[07:15] ---**
All right, I'm sending
out fighting spirit!
**[07:19] ---**
Me too!
**[07:21] ---**
You need to hold on
to your fighting spirit!
**[07:27] ---**
Thank you.
**[07:32] ---**
Let's go, everyone.
**[07:35] ---**
Right!
**[07:36] ---**
Let's sing now
**[07:38] ---**
To the twinkling sky
**[07:42] ---**
Even if the words
are burned into the stars
**[08:01] ---**
Hold on. I'm taking this in a bit too.
**[08:03] ---**
Ready?
**[08:04] ---**
Okay!
**[08:05] ---**
Yes!
**[08:07] ---**
Wait.
**[08:09] ---**
Turn that way for a second.
**[08:13] ---**
There! Okay!
**[08:14] ---**
Thank you.
**[08:15] ---**
Break a leg.
**[08:16] ---**
Fight!
**[08:20] ---**
Thank you.
**[08:21] ---**
Uh-uh! We're just getting started.
**[08:26] ---**
Right.
**[08:27] ---**
Okay, we're bringing you a special
version today! Without further ado...
**[08:32] ---**
Go ahead!
**[08:48] ---**
Where's Minami-chan?
**[08:49] ---**
That girl sang before.
**[08:56] ---**
Struck by smug, cold rain
**[09:00] ---**
Do your best, Ranko-chan!
**[09:16] ---**
"This is goodbye."
Your final words...
**[09:22] ---**
It's okay.
**[09:25] ---**
Your friends are doing
their best, so it'll be okay.
**[09:32] ---**
Right!
**[09:37] ---**
I'm already dreaming of
tomorrow. Hello, goodbye
**[09:42] ---**
So I won't look back
**[09:55] ---**
They did it!
**[10:01] ---**
Yeah!
**[10:08] ---**
Yeah!
**[10:22] ---**
Let's go!
**[10:22] ---**
Right!
**[10:25] ---**
It's terrible!
**[10:39] ---**
Blackout...
**[10:41] ---**
Please, no...
**[10:45] ---**
Please close your umbrellas. If you feel
unwell, please tell the nearest staff.
**[11:00] ---**
They said we can continue soon.
**[11:02] ---**
Thank goodness!
**[11:05] ---**
But it's still raining...
**[11:10] ---**
I-I'm sorry!
**[11:12] ---**
It's fine!
**[11:15] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[11:16] ---**
I'm useless.
**[11:19] ---**
Even when Minami-san collapsed,
I couldn't do anything to help.
**[11:24] ---**
Chieri-chan...
**[11:26] ---**
I'd better at least do what I can.
**[11:31] ---**
That's good enough.
**[11:34] ---**
It's all I can do
to do what I can.
**[11:39] ---**
That's right!
Let's do what we can!
**[11:42] ---**
Yeah.
**[11:43] ---**
I'll do my best too!
**[11:46] ---**
Right now, we all have to do what
we can to the best of our ability!
**[11:56] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:57] ---**
Okay, let's keep running to the end!
**[12:00] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:06] ---**
Rock-scissors-paper!
**[12:09] ---**
- I lost!
- I lost again!
**[12:12] ---**
The stage is okay.
**[12:15] ---**
Right!
**[12:18] ---**
Actually, not everyone has...
**[12:22] ---**
You may be surprised.
**[12:24] ---**
The audience hasn't all returned yet.
**[12:29] ---**
I see. Right after a downpour...
**[12:34] ---**
- But...
- But...
**[12:37] ---**
We have to do it.
**[12:38] ---**
Yeah!
**[12:40] ---**
I'm not running away again!
I'll make everyone watching us smile!
**[12:48] ---**
I'm looking forward to it.
**[12:49] ---**
Right!
**[13:00] ---**
Shimamu! Shiburin!
**[13:03] ---**
Right!
**[13:04] ---**
Choc-o-late!
**[13:11] ---**
Everyone!
**[13:13] ---**
Nice to meet you!
**[13:15] ---**
We're New Generations!
**[13:18] ---**
Thank you for waiting!
**[13:21] ---**
It's hard out here in the rain,
but we'll chase those clouds away!
**[13:30] ---**
Please listen!
We're New Generations!
**[13:33] ---**
"Brand New!
Evo Revo Generation!"
**[13:40] ---**
A crammed-in feeling
does a small, right about-face
**[13:45] ---**
Facing forward and behind too,
see, it looks like it'll pop out
**[13:51] ---**
The truth is I want to fly away. My
heart's ready to start throbbing already
**[13:59] ---**
A lovely, invincible feeling
**[14:02] ---**
The door to a path
is right in front of me
**[14:07] ---**
You too! Me too!
Everyone, come on!
**[14:12] ---**
A brand-new
evolu revolu generation
**[14:19] ---**
Let's raise it up into a new world
**[14:24] ---**
Put it in your cart
**[14:27] ---**
Future debut
**[14:29] ---**
Thanks for your support! Yeah!
**[14:47] ---**
That was great!
**[14:57] ---**
Thank you!
**[15:01] ---**
That was awesome.
**[15:03] ---**
Yeah...
**[15:04] ---**
I like those smiles.
**[15:07] ---**
Yes.
**[15:09] ---**
Great! That was so great!
**[15:12] ---**
Thank you!
**[15:13] ---**
Do your best.
**[15:15] ---**
I will!
**[15:17] ---**
It's our turn...
**[15:18] ---**
I'm counting on you!
**[15:42] ---**
Next!
**[15:52] ---**
Your turn!
**[16:01] ---**
Producer-san!
**[16:03] ---**
I'd like a favor.
**[16:05] ---**
Thank you!
**[16:08] ---**
We're Asterisk!
**[16:13] ---**
That was great!
**[16:15] ---**
T-Thank you...
**[16:17] ---**
Huh?
**[16:19] ---**
I'll take over from here.
**[16:25] ---**
Minami-chan!
**[16:28] ---**
You're okay now?
**[16:30] ---**
Yes, my fever's down, and with you
all working so hard, I can't lie down!
**[16:35] ---**
The Cinderella Project girls
are my cute junior colleagues.
**[16:43] ---**
Hey, let's huddle up!
**[16:47] ---**
What's the motto?
**[16:48] ---**
Maybe "fight"?
**[16:51] ---**
Yeah, that'll do it.
**[16:54] ---**
Huh? I couldn't. I got a fever
right before the performance...
**[16:59] ---**
I'm a washout as a leader.
**[17:01] ---**
Minamin, we were all waiting for you!
**[17:04] ---**
Yeah!
**[17:14] ---**
Minami...
**[17:18] ---**
Yeah!
**[17:26] ---**
Thank you.
**[17:29] ---**
All right, everyone.
Let's pull out all the stops!
**[17:33] ---**
Cinderella Project...
**[17:35] ---**
Fight! Yeah!
**[17:43] ---**
Going, going, not gonna stop
**[17:45] ---**
Going, going, can't stop
**[17:49] ---**
So let's perform the same dreaming
**[17:55] ---**
Don't stop the music!
**[18:10] ---**
Overlapping phrases are the password
**[18:15] ---**
The shining mark is opening
**[18:20] ---**
Everyone is gathered here
**[18:26] ---**
We'll keep bringing
people in till we're happy
**[18:31] ---**
Yes! Let's rise up
**[18:35] ---**
Spirits and emotions too
**[18:41] ---**
Hey! Hey!
**[18:42] ---**
Sense of unity, flowing miracle
**[18:47] ---**
Song, song, song, song
**[18:51] ---**
Let's sing it together!
**[18:55] ---**
One! Two! Three! Four!
**[18:58] ---**
Going, going to this stage
**[19:01] ---**
Going, going to this world
**[19:04] ---**
Now
**[19:06] ---**
A melody I want to send out
**[19:09] ---**
Going, going! Our friends
**[19:12] ---**
Going, going! You too! You too!
**[19:15] ---**
Don't stop
**[19:17] ---**
Your troubles will be solved
**[19:20] ---**
Come on, let's ride the same wind
**[19:25] ---**
Hop! Step! Jump!
**[19:29] ---**
Don't stop dreaming!
**[20:20] ---**
Wasn't that fantastic, Karen?
**[20:22] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:24] ---**
That Rin Shibuya girl
goes to my old middle school.
**[20:28] ---**
Huh.
**[20:51] ---**
It was over before I knew it.
**[20:53] ---**
I feel like I'm walking on air.
**[20:56] ---**
Yeah.
**[20:59] ---**
Everyone.
**[21:01] ---**
Producer!
**[21:03] ---**
What's that?
**[21:05] ---**
Fan letters for you all.
**[21:08] ---**
F-Fan letters?
**[21:11] ---**
Yes, and results for the questionnaires
handed out at the event.
**[21:17] ---**
Fan letters...
**[21:19] ---**
Like we're idols...
**[21:26] ---**
We are idols!
**[21:32] ---**
Wow...
**[21:39] ---**
I HAD FUN WATCHING NEW GENERATIONS'S
FIRST CONCERT IN IKEBUKURO!
**[21:44] ---**
I ENJOYED IT!
**[21:45] ---**
I'M GLAD I WENT!
**[21:50] ---**
Producer...
**[21:54] ---**
Thank you...
**[21:58] ---**
I'm glad I didn't quit being an idol!
**[22:03] ---**
You had a nice smile today.
**[22:10] ---**
Shimamu! Look at this!
**[22:11] ---**
What is it, Mio-chan?
**[22:22] ---**
This is incredible.
**[22:27] ---**
How was today?
**[22:33] ---**
I had a good time,
**[22:36] ---**
I think.
**[22:46] ---**
I saw the audience's
smiles today for sure!
**[22:50] ---**
- Right!
- Yeah!
**[22:52] ---**
It feels kind of strange.
**[22:55] ---**
I delivered a flower stand to
a 346 Production concert before.
**[23:02] ---**
Huh...
**[23:04] ---**
Kaede-san and the others performed.
**[23:07] ---**
I never imagined I'd be
sharing a stage with them one day.
**[23:13] ---**
Was that for the winter concert?
**[23:15] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[23:17] ---**
I was at that one.
**[23:19] ---**
Me too, as a staffer...
**[23:23] ---**
Wow! This is fate!
**[23:26] ---**
Don't embarrass
me by telling everyone.
**[23:33] ---**
Coincidence or not,
this kind of thing is cool.
**[23:37] ---**
Right!
**[23:38] ---**
Performing in a concert with everyone like this...
**[23:42] ---**
It's like a dream!
**[23:44] ---**
But it's not a dream.
**[23:48] ---**
That's right.
**[23:50] ---**
This time for sure...
**[23:52] ---**
It's not a dream!
**[23:54] ---**

**[00:09] ---**
Just a short while ago, we were ordinary
girls longing to become princesses.
**[00:18] ---**
A dazzling castle.
**[00:20] ---**
A gorgeous dress.
**[00:22] ---**
A kind prince.
**[00:25] ---**
We always thought that
was a faraway dream.
**[00:31] ---**
But then one day,
we had a fateful encounter...
**[00:37] ---**
...and a magic spell was cast on us.
**[00:42] ---**
It was such beautiful magic.
**[00:51] ---**
I'll shine bright, shine bright with
all of my might and become a star
**[00:57] ---**
I'll open the door of fate
and look up at the future
**[01:19] ---**
I glanced in the mirror,
(In the mirror)
**[01:24] ---**
And gave myself a cheer for good luck
**[01:29] ---**
After all, I was clumsy at rehearsal
**[01:34] ---**
My heart was beating loudly,
like a fanfare in my head
**[01:40] ---**
I'm not used to these stiletto heels,
ten centimeters off the ground
**[01:45] ---**
Someone, please change them with magic
**[01:50] ---**
Into glass slippers
**[01:53] ---**
I'll shine bright, shine bright with all
of my might and become a superstar
**[01:59] ---**
It's only one small step,
but because you're here,
**[02:03] ---**
I can shine bright, shine bright with
all of my might and become a star
**[02:10] ---**
I'll open the door of fate
and look up at the future
**[02:16] ---**
Good work.
**[02:18] ---**
We're back, Producer!
**[02:33] ---**
Almost time.
**[02:34] ---**
That time already?
**[02:40] ---**
There she is.
**[02:42] ---**
You look tired. I'll take your bags.
**[02:44] ---**
Thank you.
**[02:45] ---**
Where are the documents?
**[02:47] ---**
Right here.
**[02:49] ---**
Hi, bet you didn't recognize it here.
**[02:51] ---**
It's been a long time.
**[02:55] ---**
I'm surprised. Coming to the
office straight from the airport...
**[03:01] ---**
I don't like to waste time.
**[03:03] ---**
Can I tell the
president that you're back?
**[03:06] ---**
I already informed
my father by email.
**[03:10] ---**
It's here! The new album sample!
**[03:13] ---**
The box sealing
resonating souls.
**[03:16] ---**
I'm gonna listen
to it with my sister!
**[03:19] ---**
I'm gonna buy a lot again!
**[03:23] ---**
How many?
**[03:24] ---**
Let's see...
**[03:25] ---**
For my mom, my dad,
my grandma, me...
**[03:30] ---**
For my relatives and friends...
**[03:33] ---**
I'm sure my mom
will buy a lot herself.
**[03:36] ---**
And if I see too many at the shop,
it'll bother me, so I'll buy them too...
**[03:43] ---**
Maybe I will too.
**[03:45] ---**
This is great.
**[03:47] ---**
I can't wait to hear everyone's solos.
**[03:50] ---**
I'm nervous about
if it turned out okay.
**[03:53] ---**
It's already been a month
since the idol fest, huh?
**[03:57] ---**
The time has flown.
**[04:01] ---**
And our work's
increased little by little.
**[04:06] ---**
It's just incredible.
**[04:11] ---**
This way.
**[04:13] ---**
Good morning...
**[04:15] ---**
Good morning.
**[04:19] ---**
Who's she?
**[04:20] ---**
I don't know.
**[04:25] ---**
New Generations.
**[04:27] ---**
Uzuki Shimamura-san,
Mio Honda-san, Rin Shibuya-san. Correct?
**[04:32] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[04:34] ---**
Work hard.
**[04:37] ---**
Yes, ma'am!
**[04:42] ---**
I'll make the introductions. Everyone,
this is Executive Director Mishiro.
**[04:48] ---**
She's back after working
for our New York affiliate.
**[04:52] ---**
Starting next week, she'll take over as
our idol division's general executive.
**[04:59] ---**
I look forward
to working with you!
**[05:02] ---**
Director, he's in charge
of this project...
**[05:05] ---**
I read your file.
**[05:08] ---**
Excellent employees are
always welcome.
**[05:10] ---**
I expect great things.
**[05:13] ---**
I look forward
to working with you.
**[05:20] ---**
The clients don't meet
the idols first. They meet you.
**[05:24] ---**
Be mindful of your
personal appearance.
**[05:28] ---**
Yes, ma'am.
**[05:30] ---**
I want to see
the lesson and dressing rooms.
**[05:33] ---**
Yes, ma'am. I'll take you.
**[05:38] ---**
She's cool!
**[05:41] ---**
Yeah. She seems like
a really capable woman.
**[05:47] ---**
Great!
**[05:49] ---**
Cool!
**[05:51] ---**
All right, one more!
**[05:54] ---**
Okay!
**[05:57] ---**
Good work.
**[05:59] ---**
No troubles.
**[06:07] ---**
What's wrong?
**[06:09] ---**
I-I saw someone there...
**[06:15] ---**
H-Huh?
**[06:19] ---**
This is Aiko Takamori's Flouncy Time.
My guests today are Love Laika.
**[06:25] ---**
Hello.
**[06:27] ---**
I'm Minami Nitta from Love Laika.
**[06:29] ---**
I am Anastasia. How is everyone today?
**[06:33] ---**
Okay, welcome.
**[06:40] ---**
I hope a lot of people
listen to this song and enjoy it.
**[06:46] ---**
I want to beca... become an
idol who makes an impression.
**[06:52] ---**
Um, I...
**[06:56] ---**
B-Behind you...
Someone's standing there!
**[07:04] ---**
Excuse me, was someone
standing here a moment ago?
**[07:30] ---**
P-kun, what are you doing?
**[07:32] ---**
Nothing...
**[07:33] ---**
I know! Hide-and-seek!
**[07:35] ---**
Is someone behind you?
**[07:38] ---**
Is someone
after you over a debt?
**[07:42] ---**
Actually...
**[07:45] ---**
Someone's been watching?
**[07:46] ---**
A strange woman's shadow behind you?
**[07:49] ---**
Is it a ghost? A ghost?
**[07:51] ---**
I wanna see a ghost too!
**[07:55] ---**
I haven't seen the person clearly...
**[08:00] ---**
Maybe this company is cursed.
**[08:03] ---**
A girl who failed to
become an idol years ago
**[08:07] ---**
has come back to the company.
**[08:10] ---**
I'm scared!
**[08:11] ---**
P-Please stop it!
**[08:13] ---**
I wonder how
you can see a ghost.
**[08:17] ---**
I saw it on TV with my sister!
**[08:20] ---**
If you take a photo, it'll show up!
**[08:23] ---**
Okay, smile!
**[08:25] ---**
All right, cheese!
**[08:29] ---**
Let's see...
**[08:39] ---**
Yikes. It's for real!
**[08:42] ---**
W-What should we do?
**[08:44] ---**
"What should we do?"
**[08:46] ---**
What's wrong?
**[08:48] ---**
W-What's up, nya?
**[08:51] ---**
I see. The best thing to do
for a ghost is call in the experts!
**[08:57] ---**
So we have the idol
with the most psychic power,
**[09:01] ---**
and a shrine maiden
whose family runs a shrine.
**[09:04] ---**
What a combo!
**[09:06] ---**
So let's get started.
**[09:07] ---**
Please!
**[09:09] ---**
R-Right!
**[09:10] ---**
Lend me strength. Let evil be gone.
**[09:13] ---**
Let our souls be cleansed.
**[09:18] ---**
What's she doing?
**[09:20] ---**
A purification rite, nya.
**[09:22] ---**
O-On whom?
**[09:24] ---**
P-chan of course!
**[09:26] ---**
H-He isn't possessed.
**[09:33] ---**
I don't see... any woman.
**[09:38] ---**
Really?
**[09:40] ---**
Yeah. Although there's a
laughing samurai over there.
**[09:47] ---**
If it's not a ghost...
**[09:49] ---**
...it's a living,
breathing human, right?
**[09:54] ---**
Maybe a stalker?
**[09:57] ---**
Got it.
**[09:58] ---**
If it's a stalker,
I'll ask experts.
**[10:04] ---**
Here are an ex-police officer
and a part-time private detective.
**[10:08] ---**
We certainly have
a wide variety of talents.
**[10:12] ---**
I've heard the facts.
**[10:14] ---**
Everyone, stay calm.
**[10:16] ---**
Don't move.
**[10:21] ---**
At 3:28 p.m., the suspect
was taken in custody!
**[10:25] ---**
You have the right to remain silent.
**[10:27] ---**
For no reason?
**[10:29] ---**
Y-You're off-base.
He isn't suspicious.
**[10:32] ---**
Everyone, please calm down.
**[10:46] ---**
Not a suspicious
character in sight!
**[10:49] ---**
All clear over here too!
**[10:56] ---**
All clear...
**[10:58] ---**
Today you've got a meet-and-greet,
followed by a planning meeting.
**[11:04] ---**
My apologies, but I have to head
somewhere else after the meet-and-greet.
**[11:10] ---**
All right.
**[11:11] ---**
Where are you going, Producer?
**[11:14] ---**
To a Dekoration poster shoot...
**[11:17] ---**
Okay!
**[11:19] ---**
Kirarin? The producer is going
over by you, so watch out for him.
**[11:25] ---**
At the moment,
I don't see a stalker.
**[11:28] ---**
Yeah. Call if you
see anyone suspicious.
**[11:31] ---**
Hey.
**[11:33] ---**
You know the media's
noticed us playing detective?
**[11:37] ---**
Yes.
**[11:38] ---**
Is it okay to let it go on?
**[11:40] ---**
It seems everyone is
having a good time, so...
**[11:46] ---**
Shibuya-san...
**[11:48] ---**
Are you having a good time?
**[11:51] ---**
The detective thing is kind of...
**[11:53] ---**
No.
**[11:55] ---**
Not that.
**[11:56] ---**
I meant being an idol.
**[12:02] ---**
I guess I'm on my
way to enjoying it.
**[12:11] ---**
Rin Shibuya...
**[12:16] ---**
...chan... right?
**[12:20] ---**
Karen Hojo.
**[12:21] ---**
We went to middle school together,
though we were in different classes.
**[12:28] ---**
Sorry. I don't remember you.
**[12:31] ---**
That's okay. Don't sweat it.
**[12:34] ---**
I was absent a lot of the time.
**[12:37] ---**
This is Nao Kamiya.
**[12:39] ---**
We're also idols with 346 Pro.
**[12:44] ---**
We work out of the same
office as Mika Jougasaki.
**[12:48] ---**
We debuted recently.
**[12:50] ---**
Really.
**[12:52] ---**
Hey, I saw the Idol Summer Fest.
**[12:55] ---**
The crowd loved it. We really
enjoyed it. Right, Nao?
**[13:01] ---**
I-I guess so...
**[13:03] ---**
Nao's shy, so she
doesn't express herself,
**[13:06] ---**
but I saw how her eyes
lit up during the concert.
**[13:10] ---**
Whose eyes lit up?
**[13:13] ---**
W-Well, I did have a good time...
**[13:17] ---**
Thank you.
**[13:19] ---**
It made me want to perform in that kind
of concert someday.
**[13:22] ---**
It's a goal for now.
**[13:39] ---**
We are New Generations!
**[13:42] ---**
Please keep supporting us!
**[13:47] ---**
That concert?
**[13:48] ---**
Her goal, huh?
That's our Shiburin! You rock!
**[13:52] ---**
Not just me. She meant all of us.
**[13:56] ---**
So we're senpais too... That goes
to show how we're moving forward!
**[14:01] ---**
Yep! It's great!
I'll work even harder!
**[14:05] ---**
Shimamu! That's your go-to phrase!
**[14:08] ---**
Sorry... But I will work hard!
**[14:13] ---**
Yeah... Yeah...
**[14:16] ---**
Nothing unusual for now.
**[14:22] ---**
There are no evil claw
marks outside my barrier.
**[14:31] ---**
Yeah, I think
we're all clear here too.
**[14:40] ---**
Yeah. He's been
working out of a cafe.
**[14:44] ---**
Is there really a stalker?
**[14:48] ---**
Right.
**[14:49] ---**
I'll keep watch
until shift change, nya.
**[14:58] ---**
What are you doing, nya?
**[15:01] ---**
I learned a new chord,
so I'm practicing.
**[15:05] ---**
It's pretty difficult...
**[15:10] ---**
Nice.
**[15:12] ---**
Is it yours?
**[15:13] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[15:15] ---**
Let me borrow it a sec.
**[15:19] ---**
I always play leftie, but...
**[15:36] ---**
Thank you.
**[15:38] ---**
You've got a cool partner.
**[15:43] ---**
E-Excuse me!
**[15:46] ---**
I-I'm Riina Tada!
I'm aiming to become a rock idol.
**[15:52] ---**
A rock idol, huh?
Then we're in the same boat.
**[15:56] ---**
I'm Natsuki Kimura. If you
ever want to talk rock, hit me up.
**[16:04] ---**
There's someone like her?
**[16:06] ---**
You didn't know?
**[16:07] ---**
Rock idol Natsuki
Kimura-chan is famous, nya!
**[16:13] ---**
I'm surprised you've
never heard of her, nya.
**[16:16] ---**
Huh? Mayu Sakuma-chan...
**[16:22] ---**
Looks like something's wrong...
**[16:26] ---**
Don't tell me P-chan's stalker is...
**[16:30] ---**
That is suspicious!
**[16:32] ---**
Then Mayu-chan is the stalker?
**[16:36] ---**
She was probably
just passing through.
**[16:39] ---**
Come to think of it, I did see Mayu-chan
yesterday when I went to the office.
**[16:45] ---**
It is her!
**[16:47] ---**
But why would she
follow the producer around?
**[16:51] ---**
I've got it! Mayu-chan
is in love with P-kun!
**[16:55] ---**
She can't hold back
her love! Yeah, it's possible.
**[17:00] ---**
R-Really?
**[17:02] ---**
We'll have to ask
Mayu-chan directly, nya!
**[17:07] ---**
Mayu-chan isn't here...
**[17:10] ---**
I think she's
somewhere in the building...
**[17:13] ---**
What are you up to?
**[17:15] ---**
Sis!
**[17:17] ---**
Mika-nee, have you seen Mayu-chan?
**[17:19] ---**
Mayu? Nope. Why?
**[17:23] ---**
Mayu-chan is in love with P-kun!
**[17:27] ---**
We're not 100% sure.
So we were going to ask her.
**[17:32] ---**
I see...
**[17:34] ---**
Hey, Sis! Why don't you
give Mayu-chan love advice?
**[17:40] ---**
Wait, that kind of thing is...
How to put it? It's case by case...
**[17:47] ---**
Let's search this floor again, nya.
**[17:49] ---**
Yeah.
**[17:50] ---**
I'll look over there.
**[17:53] ---**
I'm gonna go look too, Sis!
**[17:55] ---**
Okay, go ahead.
**[18:00] ---**
Um...
**[18:02] ---**
Do you know
Karen Hojo and Nao Kamiya?
**[18:06] ---**
Karen and Nao?
**[18:07] ---**
They're kouhais
from my office. You know them?
**[18:11] ---**
They talked to me the other day.
They went to the Idol Summer Fest.
**[18:16] ---**
I see. They can sing, dance,
and have good sense. They're talented.
**[18:21] ---**
They may be your rivals one day.
**[18:25] ---**
Miku-nyan, find her?
**[18:27] ---**
Doesn't look like she's here, nya.
**[18:29] ---**
Maybe we should search another floor.
**[18:33] ---**
What's going on?
**[18:36] ---**
M-Mayu-chan...
**[18:37] ---**
Yes?
**[18:38] ---**
U-Um, it's nothing...
**[18:41] ---**
Shimamu, we have to ask her!
**[18:44] ---**
- After all, how should I ask...
- But this is perfect timing...
**[18:50] ---**
I have a favor to ask...
**[19:00] ---**
Hey, I wonder what it says.
**[19:03] ---**
It's her love confession!
**[19:05] ---**
So she put her feelings in the letter
or wants to meet and tell him directly.
**[19:21] ---**
I bet she's meeting him, nyan!
**[19:23] ---**
Let's go!
**[19:25] ---**
We're going?
**[19:34] ---**
- I don't know if it's a good idea...
- We're this far. See it through, nya!
**[19:40] ---**
I'm not sure...
**[19:42] ---**
My heart's beating so fast.
**[19:45] ---**
Hey, I wonder what P-kun will do.
**[19:58] ---**
Please, do me that favor.
**[20:05] ---**
Okay?
**[20:12] ---**
Are you okay?
**[20:14] ---**
Yeah. I was cutting this
cake and dropped the knife.
**[20:20] ---**
The birthday of her producer?
**[20:23] ---**
Yes. It seems she wanted to ask me,
since we started at the same time.
**[20:29] ---**
She was waiting for the right
chance for the past few days.
**[20:33] ---**
Sheesh...
**[20:35] ---**
She's interested
in a different producer...
**[20:39] ---**
Jeez. I figured it was
something like that, nya.
**[20:42] ---**
Too bad, P-kun. We thought
someone had a crush on you...
**[20:46] ---**
Y-Yeah. But don't let it get you down...
**[21:09] ---**
Still, it was fun playing detective.
**[21:13] ---**
Yeah. It was kind of thrilling.
**[21:16] ---**
It was exciting.
**[21:18] ---**
Producer, let us know
if anything else comes up!
**[21:22] ---**
Right...
**[21:25] ---**
Well, this kind of thing is
good for you once in a while.
**[21:29] ---**
Is it?
**[21:31] ---**
That's what you say,
but you went with it too!
**[21:35] ---**
Right, Shimamu?
**[21:37] ---**
Well, that was...
**[21:38] ---**
But it was a little fun for me too.
**[22:11] ---**
Want to walk there together?
**[22:15] ---**
Sure.
**[23:38] ---**
I apologize for taking up
your time when you're so busy.
**[23:43] ---**
In brief, I'll give you the direction
we'll be going in while I'm in charge.
**[23:49] ---**
All projects from the current
idol division are disbanded.
**[23:54] ---**
We'll start anew.

**[00:12] ---**
All projects from the current idol
division are disbanded.
**[00:16] ---**
We start anew.
**[00:18] ---**
After that, I'll choose idols
**[00:21] ---**
and unite them for one project,
with the goal being major results.
**[00:25] ---**
This is my decision.
**[00:28] ---**
I'll give you further instructions.
**[02:05] ---**
REFERENCE ROOM
**[02:20] ---**
What the heck is going on?
**[02:23] ---**
All projects from the current idol
division are disbanded.
**[02:27] ---**
We start anew.
**[02:29] ---**
After that, only idols I select
will make the cut and be supported.
**[02:36] ---**
My aim is establishing
a brand image for 346 overseas.
**[02:44] ---**
I believe the projects have their own
aims, and their idols are growing
**[02:49] ---**
and developing individuality.
**[02:53] ---**
Developing individuality.
That's fine.
**[02:56] ---**
However, time waits for no one.
**[02:59] ---**
The current process
is too slow to produce results.
**[03:04] ---**
But each person
has their own way of walking.
**[03:08] ---**
I can't proceed in a way that ignores
that and makes them lose their smile.
**[03:15] ---**
Then what's your idea?
**[03:18] ---**
If you disagree with me so much,
surely you have a better plan.
**[03:24] ---**
If you give me
a little time, I...
**[03:27] ---**
Present your idea at once.
**[03:29] ---**
I'm not a very patient person.
**[03:39] ---**
P-kun!
**[03:42] ---**
Pardon me for being late!
**[03:57] ---**
Is this our room?
**[04:00] ---**
It seems...
**[04:02] ---**
What did she mean, "disbanded"?
**[04:04] ---**
What's going to happen with our work?
**[04:07] ---**
I want you to continue with
work that's already in progress.
**[04:12] ---**
Then you don't
know what's ahead?
**[04:16] ---**
What'll happen with our units?
**[04:18] ---**
That I...
**[04:20] ---**
Will the project
really be canceled?
**[04:23] ---**
I won't let it.
**[04:25] ---**
I promise.
**[04:27] ---**
I'll present an alternate
plan, and we'll manage.
**[04:31] ---**
Have faith in me.
**[04:33] ---**
Please give me a little time.
**[04:37] ---**
But is waiting all we can do?
**[04:41] ---**
Right! The summer fest
was a success,
**[04:44] ---**
and it looked like things were
going to pick up.
**[04:46] ---**
I want to help.
**[04:50] ---**
Somehow...
**[04:59] ---**
Producer-san, it's almost
time for the meeting.
**[05:04] ---**
Right.
**[05:06] ---**
I'll get us through this.
**[05:08] ---**
Stay calm and continue
your regular schedule.
**[05:12] ---**
Then your section's the same?
**[05:14] ---**
That's right.
**[05:17] ---**
This mood makes me so nervous!
I'm going for a run outside!
**[05:22] ---**
Akane-chan!
**[05:24] ---**
It's like I thought... I wonder
what'll happen with the next job.
**[05:29] ---**
For now, it seems stuff
that's been decided on is safe...
**[05:37] ---**
Karen, Nao!
**[05:41] ---**
Good morning!
**[05:43] ---**
- Good morning!
- Good morning!
**[05:46] ---**
We saw the idol fest.
It was awesome!
**[05:51] ---**
I told you about them.
**[05:52] ---**
Oh, those girls.
**[05:54] ---**
Mika-nee was praising you two!
**[05:57] ---**
Really! I'm touched.
**[05:59] ---**
N-Not me.
We've hardly done any work.
**[06:03] ---**
Oh, she said you're great at singing
and dancing and have good taste.
**[06:09] ---**
Um, we're still newcomers,
but I hope we can work together.
**[06:15] ---**
Me too.
**[06:17] ---**
I hope we do too.
**[06:19] ---**
Waiting for a lesson to start?
**[06:24] ---**
Your CD debut was cut?
**[06:27] ---**
That's terrible...
**[06:28] ---**
She's got a lot of nerve!
**[06:31] ---**
We prepared a lot for it...
**[06:36] ---**
Part of me thinks we're not ready
to debut yet, so it's no one's fault.
**[06:42] ---**
I don't know what to do.
**[06:46] ---**
I'll be back.
**[06:48] ---**
Where are you going?
**[06:50] ---**
We were told to wait, right?
**[06:53] ---**
I know, but...
**[06:56] ---**
But this cruelty is the last straw!
**[06:59] ---**
And we're just supposed to sit here...
**[07:03] ---**
You said it yourself, Shiburin...
**[07:06] ---**
What'll you do, Shimamu?
**[07:09] ---**
M-Me?
**[07:10] ---**
Um... Um...
**[07:12] ---**
I... I'll... do my best!
I'll take lots of lessons.
**[07:18] ---**
We still have concerts, so I want to
focus on them first. Um, after that...
**[07:24] ---**
Huh? Sorry!
Did I say something weird?
**[07:29] ---**
But change isn't good, so...
**[07:32] ---**
Sorry! I was nervous, and
the blood rushed to my head.
**[07:36] ---**
M-Mio-chan...
**[07:38] ---**
All right, I'll do
my best with lessons too!
**[07:42] ---**
Yeah. Me too. Doing nothing
makes you all the more anxious.
**[07:47] ---**
Take lessons with us,
Karen and Nao.
**[07:50] ---**
Are you sure?
**[07:52] ---**
Of course!
**[07:55] ---**
Thank you!
**[08:04] ---**
TV PROGRAM FORMATION
**[09:34] ---**
Fabric softener, fabric softener...
**[09:38] ---**
Takagaki-san!
**[09:42] ---**
Thank you for coming.
**[09:44] ---**
Your career with 346 Pro is top class.
**[09:49] ---**
I want to do a special headline
feature on you for the next program.
**[09:55] ---**
I've chosen you.
**[09:57] ---**
Me?
**[09:59] ---**
Yes. You're not Cinderella.
You're a princess.
**[10:04] ---**
Princess...
**[10:06] ---**
That's right. A plain shack
doesn't suit a princess.
**[10:11] ---**
For starters, I'll give
this event to someone else.
**[10:15] ---**
This minor event doesn't fit your image.
**[10:25] ---**
Heard about Takagaki-san?
**[10:27] ---**
And Director Mishiro?
**[10:29] ---**
Yeah, that's the one.
**[10:32] ---**
That project is you all over.
**[10:35] ---**
I thought of several more, but...
**[10:39] ---**
No, I like this one. I can feel
your conviction coming from it.
**[10:44] ---**
The only thing is will
Director Mishiro be convinced?
**[10:49] ---**
I wonder.
**[10:54] ---**
Our department and the girls'
future is riding on this.
**[11:02] ---**
Have you heard
about Takagaki-kun?
**[11:06] ---**
Yes. That she turned down
Executive Director Mishiro's proposal?
**[11:11] ---**
She's opposing Executive Director
Mishiro in her own way.
**[11:17] ---**
It kind of reminded me a little of you.
**[11:35] ---**
Everyone in the company is talking
about what happened with Kaede-san.
**[11:41] ---**
Yeah. She turned down
a pretty big job, right?
**[11:44] ---**
Turning down work at a time like this?
**[11:47] ---**
She's pretty rockin'.
**[11:49] ---**
She's beautiful and cool!
**[11:51] ---**
She's an angel's wings,
protected by the moonlight.
**[11:55] ---**
She really is an idol to look up to!
**[11:58] ---**
She's wonderful!
**[12:00] ---**
But Kaede-san...
**[12:03] ---**
Why'd you turn down the director's idea?
It was a special feature, the main show!
**[12:08] ---**
I was so surprised...
**[12:10] ---**
At a time like this, I need
a "relaxative" to get some relief.
**[12:15] ---**
Don't make jokes.
**[12:17] ---**
Let's drag her somewhere
for an interrogation.
**[12:21] ---**
If you're dragging me somewhere,
please make it a pub!
**[12:25] ---**
Gonna play dumb?
**[12:27] ---**
No drinks until you tell us why.
**[12:30] ---**
Come on! How about a
wee drink to loosen me up?
**[12:35] ---**
That's different from her image!
**[12:37] ---**
Jokes and a love of pubs...
**[12:40] ---**
это тайна. That is odd.
**[12:45] ---**
True...
**[12:48] ---**
Speaking of odd, I wonder why
she turned down Director Mishiro.
**[12:55] ---**
I bet she had
a good reason for it.
**[13:00] ---**
I'm envious, nya! I want to talk
with Director Mishiro too!
**[13:05] ---**
I hate being told what to do, nya!
**[13:07] ---**
M-Miku-chan, calm down.
**[13:09] ---**
The producer said to wait...
**[13:12] ---**
What would you tell her, anyway?
**[13:15] ---**
Maybe I can help P-chan.
Or think of a proposal...
**[13:19] ---**
A proposal?
I wanna make one too!
**[13:23] ---**
But they were
turned down last time.
**[13:26] ---**
It's better than
sitting around, nya!
**[13:29] ---**
I know, but...
**[13:32] ---**
Then why don't we make
a workspace for ourselves first?
**[13:37] ---**
Miku-chan, please clear out
the storage space over there.
**[13:44] ---**
But I wanna write...
**[13:45] ---**
Miku-chan, cleaning
is an important job.
**[13:49] ---**
Let's all get this room so
clean that we surprise P-chan!
**[13:54] ---**
We'll keep it secret from him?
**[13:57] ---**
A young maiden's secret?
**[13:59] ---**
That's right!
**[14:00] ---**
Then I'll get some dust cloths.
**[14:03] ---**
Don't let P-kun see you!
**[14:18] ---**
Producer...
**[14:20] ---**
Yes?
**[14:21] ---**
You've been looking grim all day.
**[14:24] ---**
Are you tired?
**[14:27] ---**
No.
**[14:29] ---**
I'm fine.
**[14:38] ---**
Is Kaede-san already here?
**[14:41] ---**
I don't know...
**[14:44] ---**
Good morn...
**[14:45] ---**
Sign on! Sign off!
**[14:52] ---**
G-Good morning!
**[14:55] ---**
Good morning.
**[15:12] ---**
That's...
**[15:13] ---**
The proposal Miku-nyan
was talking about.
**[15:17] ---**
The producer seems tired, so I want
to help him out at least a little.
**[15:24] ---**
Having to do with
a school festival?
**[15:26] ---**
Make it bigger...
**[15:28] ---**
Where the audience really eats it up...
But I guess that's pretty normal...
**[15:34] ---**
Hey, Shimamu.
What's your pitch gonna be?
**[15:38] ---**
I'm still thinking about it...
**[15:41] ---**
I'm drawing a blank...
**[15:46] ---**
Excuse me.
**[15:48] ---**
Are you ready?
**[15:50] ---**
What are you doing?
**[15:54] ---**
Writing proposals!
**[15:55] ---**
We thought maybe we could
somehow save the Cinderella Project.
**[16:01] ---**
But none of us have
had any inspiration.
**[16:04] ---**
I'm sorry, Producer-san.
**[16:07] ---**
Not at all.
**[16:08] ---**
Thank you.
**[16:10] ---**
Wait, I mean, we don't
have any good ideas yet, so, um...
**[16:21] ---**
Thank you!
**[16:27] ---**
Good job.
**[16:29] ---**
In fact, that was a great performance.
**[16:34] ---**
Excuse me! Coutld you help me?
**[16:40] ---**
We're ready to give out the fans, but...
**[16:44] ---**
The numbered tickets?
**[16:45] ---**
Already given out, but fans who suspect
we don't have many are pushing forward.
**[16:53] ---**
Understood. Then I'll get them...
**[16:58] ---**
Kaede-san?
**[16:59] ---**
Takagaki-san!
**[17:00] ---**
We haven't formed a line yet!
**[17:04] ---**
Everyone, it's dangerous
if you don't line up.
**[17:09] ---**
I prepared lots of fans, so no
pushing, no rushing, and no talking.
**[17:15] ---**
Keep your snacks with
you and line up please.
**[17:19] ---**
That's like a fire drill!
**[17:21] ---**
Huh? Then it's okay to talk.
**[17:32] ---**
- Impressive...
- Wow... - Did you see that?
**[17:35] ---**
Now please return to
the dressing room and relax.
**[17:40] ---**
R-Right.
**[17:49] ---**
I want to help too.
**[17:52] ---**
But...
**[17:54] ---**
Me too.
**[17:55] ---**
Me too, if possible...
**[17:58] ---**
But you see...
**[18:00] ---**
We can't help?
**[18:02] ---**
If there's something
I can do, I want to.
**[18:05] ---**
Kaede-san had such a nice smile...
**[18:09] ---**
Right! My heart
was beating fast.
**[18:16] ---**
Is it okay with you?
**[18:18] ---**
Yes, by all means!
**[18:40] ---**
So many people...
**[18:42] ---**
Even though Kaede-san is a big star,
**[18:46] ---**
she does the same things we do.
**[18:49] ---**
Yes. It was awesome.
**[18:56] ---**
Kaede-san!
**[18:57] ---**
Thank you for your help.
**[18:59] ---**
It's roomy but gloomy in here.
**[19:03] ---**
Right...
**[19:04] ---**
That's why I have
to light up the room.
**[19:19] ---**
Thank you so much for coming.
It's the same as that time, that day...
**[19:26] ---**
Does anyone remember this stage?
**[19:29] ---**
I remember!
**[19:31] ---**
Thank you.
**[19:33] ---**
This is the stage where
I had my first performance.
**[19:39] ---**
I felt lonely and nervous.
**[19:42] ---**
But then I met all of you.
You smiled and cheered me on.
**[19:50] ---**
Nothing could've made me happier
than performing in this place again,
**[19:55] ---**
one that's so important to me.
**[19:58] ---**
I hope you have a good time.
**[20:04] ---**
A dry wind passes through my heart
**[20:13] ---**
- Excuse me...
- Kaede-san.
**[20:16] ---**
Yes?
**[20:17] ---**
About Director Mishiro.
Why didn't you accept her offer?
**[20:23] ---**
Good question.
Certainly, it was a good deal, but...
**[20:29] ---**
I can't accept.
**[20:32] ---**
Why not? It'd give you much
bigger results than that minor gig.
**[20:38] ---**
No work is major or minor.
**[20:42] ---**
This concert is at a place
that means a lot to me.
**[20:47] ---**
You're not willing to advance
your career by taking the next step?
**[20:54] ---**
I want to take the next
step together with my fans.
**[20:59] ---**
Together?
**[21:02] ---**
Smiling together with my fans.
**[21:06] ---**
That's what's most important to me.
**[21:09] ---**
That's a vague reason.
**[21:12] ---**
That's my way of doing things.
**[21:15] ---**
You and I have different goals.
**[21:17] ---**
Together with the fans...
**[21:20] ---**
Smiling...
**[21:22] ---**
Our own way of doing things...
**[21:24] ---**
The smiles from then
are supporting you now.
**[21:29] ---**
I hope you go forward
without forgetting that.
**[21:33] ---**
I want to shine together.
**[21:35] ---**
Please give me the power
to take a step forward
**[21:52] ---**
Wonderful...
**[21:54] ---**
Yeah. Kaede-san and the fans too...
**[21:58] ---**
Yes. They're glowing.
**[22:07] ---**
W-Wow! It's totally clean!
**[22:11] ---**
Amazing!
**[22:13] ---**
CINDERELLA PROJECT FIGHT, NYA
**[22:15] ---**
You all did this?
**[22:17] ---**
We wanted to do something...
**[22:19] ---**
But there's more! Ta-da!
**[22:23] ---**
Proposals?
**[22:25] ---**
Wow! We thought of the same thing!
**[22:28] ---**
Although we haven't
actually come up with an idea yet...
**[22:33] ---**
Well, we were
racking our brains here too.
**[22:39] ---**
But feelings are important, nya.
We did everything we could right now!
**[22:44] ---**
Crawling back up
from here is rock.
**[22:47] ---**
It's time to unleash our hidden power!
**[22:52] ---**
I'm ready!
**[22:53] ---**
Let's decide!
**[22:55] ---**
I'm psyched about it too!
**[22:58] ---**
And Anzu-chan said
she's all motivated!
**[23:02] ---**
I-I never said that!
**[23:04] ---**
We'll also do what we can...
**[23:07] ---**
...a little at a time!
**[23:09] ---**
If we're together, it'll be fine.
**[23:11] ---**
Da. I am not afraid.
**[23:15] ---**
All right!
**[23:17] ---**
Let's do things our own way!
**[23:20] ---**
That suits us!
**[23:23] ---**
I bet that's the strongest you can be!
**[23:26] ---**
Right, Producer?
**[23:30] ---**
Yes.
**[23:37] ---**
Excuse me.
**[23:42] ---**
I don't have time to spare for you.
**[23:45] ---**
I brought my alternative.
**[23:53] ---**

**[00:05] ---**
Cinderella's Ball?
**[00:07] ---**
A complex event that would
bring out the idols' personalities.
**[00:12] ---**
Personalities, huh? The exact
opposite of the direction I indicated.
**[00:17] ---**
Power of Smile?
**[00:19] ---**
Yes. Smiling is the concept.
**[00:23] ---**
Idols will draw out smiles
with their own power.
**[00:27] ---**
That becomes their power.
**[00:29] ---**
Without that, they can't
capture the fans' hearts.
**[00:33] ---**
Idols' smiles.
**[00:35] ---**
And the many
smiles that support them.
**[00:38] ---**
I don't mean fake smiles.
**[00:39] ---**
I think genuine smiles
are part of their charm.
**[00:44] ---**
It's like a fairy tale.
**[00:48] ---**
Fine. If you're that set
on it, give it a shot.
**[00:52] ---**
But of course, you'll
need to get decent results.
**[00:56] ---**
You have till the end of this period.
I want results by then.
**[01:00] ---**
How you proceed and associated
promotion are at your discretion.
**[01:05] ---**
I won't aid or interfere. I may allow
the project to go on, based on results.
**[01:12] ---**
Of course, I'll proceed
to do things my way.
**[01:17] ---**
However, if you fail,
**[01:19] ---**
I will decide how to deal with you and
your department based on the outcome.
**[01:33] ---**
When is it?
**[01:35] ---**
The end of this period.
**[01:36] ---**
We have until that deadline to proceed
with the plan as we wish, more or less.
**[01:43] ---**
Of course, if the "ball" is a success,
the Cinderella Project can go on.
**[01:49] ---**
Yes.
**[01:50] ---**
Yay!
**[01:51] ---**
Then we can all be together!
**[01:53] ---**
But that's only if
the ball is a success, right?
**[01:59] ---**
Yes.
**[02:03] ---**
Then together...
**[02:05] ---**
All the more reason to come
together and make the ball a success!
**[02:10] ---**
Right. It's our chance to bounce back!
Let's show her how strong we are, nya!
**[02:16] ---**
We who have been exiled from heaven,
now is the time to rise in revolt!
**[02:21] ---**
- She's getting more rockin'!
- We have a new goal.
**[02:26] ---**
Although it sounds tough...
**[02:28] ---**
It'll be fine!
**[02:30] ---**
Let's do things our way, with a smile!
**[02:34] ---**
Yeah.
**[02:34] ---**
Right!
**[02:35] ---**
So, everyone, let's make
Cinderella's Ball a total success!
**[02:42] ---**
Yeah!
**[04:34] ---**
The older I get,
the harder it is to wake up.
**[04:40] ---**
Nana Abe! Off to work
from the planet Bunnyears!
**[04:45] ---**
The whole project will have to become
stronger than ever for this ball.
**[04:50] ---**
I'm working on a plan that focuses
on your personality for outside appeal.
**[04:57] ---**
Then can we propose a plan too?
**[05:00] ---**
Of course.
Let's think about it together.
**[05:10] ---**
Already thinking about a plan?
**[05:13] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:14] ---**
Still, "200 Cats Live"...
**[05:18] ---**
Let's think more realistically.
**[05:21] ---**
I want to increase our cuteness!
**[05:24] ---**
Do you have something in mind?
**[05:26] ---**
Of course.
**[05:28] ---**
We'll appeal to pickier fans
flying our rock flag!
**[05:32] ---**
You need to hurry up
and learn guitar, nya!
**[05:35] ---**
All right! We also have
to power up for the ball...
**[05:40] ---**
This man in a suit too...
**[05:42] ---**
Yeah, I am kind of addicted to it.
**[05:44] ---**
That's the popular Rhythmon!
**[05:48] ---**
Nana Abe-chan, nya!
**[05:50] ---**
Huh. It's Nana-chan...
**[05:52] ---**
Maekawa-san, Tada-san,
please get ready for the taping.
**[05:56] ---**
- Right.
- Roger, nya!
**[06:00] ---**
Good morning!
**[06:02] ---**
Morning.
**[06:04] ---**
Nana-chan.
**[06:06] ---**
Good morning!
**[06:07] ---**
Good morning.
**[06:08] ---**
- Sorry I bothered you at the cafe.
- Not at all.
**[06:12] ---**
I'm happy we get to work together
like this. Let's do our best!
**[06:17] ---**
Right!
**[06:18] ---**
Ayame is one step ahead!
That's our ninja doll!
**[06:22] ---**
Ayame-dono! That's the way!
**[06:25] ---**
Miku-chan and Nana-chan
are both like cicadas.
**[06:32] ---**
Cat power, full throttle!
**[06:35] ---**
Whoa, it's the cat character's will!
**[06:37] ---**
She's fired up!
**[06:39] ---**
I'm going full tilt, nya!
**[06:42] ---**
Psychic energy, infusion!
**[06:45] ---**
Energy received! Here I go!
**[06:49] ---**
Ears! Ears! Bunnyears!
**[06:53] ---**
Whoa! It's the Bunnyear cheer! Nana
Abe-chan and Bunnyears. What a thrill!
**[06:59] ---**
Ears! Ears! Bunnyears!
**[07:06] ---**
Nana-chan wins
by a narrow margin!
**[07:11] ---**
Bunnyears is amazing, nya!
**[07:16] ---**
This is a dish
we were raised on.
**[07:20] ---**
What's in there worries me!
**[07:22] ---**
Eat it and you'll feel like a pharaoh!
**[07:25] ---**
Where do you
think Hakata ward is?
**[07:29] ---**
Okay, while they're
yakking, let's continue.
**[07:33] ---**
Bunnyears!
**[07:35] ---**
That's me!
**[07:36] ---**
This is Bunnyear's Weather Corner!
**[07:40] ---**
T-Tomorrow will be a fine,
crisp autumn day.
**[07:45] ---**
You could see planet Bunnyears.
**[07:50] ---**
Good work.
**[07:52] ---**
I'm sorry, P-chan, nya.
**[07:53] ---**
No, you did fine.
I'll have to excuse myself.
**[07:57] ---**
I have a meeting after this.
**[08:01] ---**
Then we'll go back ourselves.
**[08:03] ---**
Thank you.
**[08:05] ---**
All right...
**[08:08] ---**
Nana-chan, Yukko-chan!
**[08:09] ---**
Good work!
**[08:11] ---**
You beat me today, nya!
**[08:13] ---**
Oh, I was just lucky.
**[08:15] ---**
And I'm good with cliffs...
**[08:18] ---**
My psychic support gave her a boost!
**[08:21] ---**
I-I see...
**[08:23] ---**
I'm moved, nya!
**[08:25] ---**
The mood changed when
the Bunnyears cheer started.
**[08:29] ---**
It's a distinct character!
**[08:32] ---**
No, everyone just got into it.
**[08:35] ---**
It was your Bunnyears character, nya.
**[08:38] ---**
N-No, Bunnyears isn't a character.
**[08:41] ---**
I'm a singing, dancing, voice-actor idol
from the planet Bunnyears! Nana Abe
**[08:48] ---**
is the name!
**[08:49] ---**
Cool, nya!
**[08:51] ---**
It came to me during the show
today. Nana-chan, you're my rival!
**[08:56] ---**
No, make that my goal!
**[08:59] ---**
I-I'm your goal?
**[09:04] ---**
This is kind of a passionate exchange!
**[09:08] ---**
Goal, huh?
**[09:10] ---**
From here on, I want 346 Pro idols
to be seen as having the star quality
**[09:17] ---**
of show business from yesteryear
and an otherworldly narrative.
**[09:22] ---**
Then what about the TV show now?
**[09:24] ---**
We'll gradually shift the content.
**[09:27] ---**
Will it work in this day and age?
**[09:30] ---**
I think it's an interesting venture...
**[09:33] ---**
First, cancel one of this week's
segments and switch performers.
**[09:38] ---**
Please hold on. That's going too...
**[09:40] ---**
I told you.
**[09:42] ---**
I'm going to proceed
to do things my way.
**[09:50] ---**
Her goal, she said...
**[09:53] ---**
All right! I'll do my best with
Bunnyears power tomorrow too!
**[10:00] ---**
S-Sorry! Sorry!
**[10:05] ---**
What's today's meeting about?
**[10:07] ---**
I don't know.
**[10:08] ---**
We had a lot of
guests yesterday, right?
**[10:12] ---**
I wasn't on it...
**[10:14] ---**
Maybe there's a new
project in the works?
**[10:18] ---**
A new project!
**[10:19] ---**
My glasses must have struck
a chord with one of the higher-ups!
**[10:26] ---**
Good morning!
**[10:34] ---**
We want all of you to rethink
the direction of the show.
**[10:47] ---**
Our company has
reached a period of transition.
**[10:51] ---**
Part of that involves revising our
key image from a production standpoint.
**[11:00] ---**
Practically speaking,
**[11:03] ---**
we plan on gradually reducing the
amount of variety-show-related work.
**[11:09] ---**
You should know it'll be
all but gone in the future.
**[11:13] ---**
We'll focus on idols as artists
and establish a brand image.
**[11:18] ---**
Given that, we'd like
you to rethink your characters.
**[11:22] ---**
What are these guys talking about?
**[11:26] ---**
It's not only the company.
The idea is for all of you to change.
**[11:32] ---**
How can the company
decide on this without us?
**[11:36] ---**
I'm not satisfied with this.
**[11:39] ---**
I'm sure you
have strong feelings,
**[11:42] ---**
but I'd like you to discuss how
to deal with it with your producers.
**[11:47] ---**
And Nana Abe-kun. Stay here a minute.
**[11:51] ---**
O-Okay...
**[11:53] ---**
Don't tell me
there's a psychic wall...
**[11:56] ---**
If they take away
our laughs, what's left?
**[12:00] ---**
You've gotta have comedy.
**[12:02] ---**
- So singing will be our main job?
- But they don't like character idols.
**[12:09] ---**
Switching out the weather corner?
**[12:12] ---**
Sorry it's so sudden.
**[12:14] ---**
It seems they're going
to shift the show's focus.
**[12:18] ---**
These kinds of changes will likely
happen regularly from now on.
**[12:23] ---**
I see...
**[12:25] ---**
Excuse me.
**[12:32] ---**
I hate bearing bad news...
**[12:34] ---**
Decisions from upstairs.
We don't have a choice.
**[12:38] ---**
Power of Smile... It seems
you've given him the green light.
**[12:43] ---**
I thought it would
be a good opportunity.
**[12:47] ---**
If they fail, I can use that as a reason
to silence those who oppose my reforms.
**[12:54] ---**
Of course if they succeed,
I won't complain either.
**[12:58] ---**
Reforms, huh? You don't think you're
being pretty heavy-handed about it?
**[13:05] ---**
I have a vision.
**[13:10] ---**
I've coordinated my cute cat items.
**[13:14] ---**
You do have many.
**[13:16] ---**
Yeah! And I take
turns using them, nya!
**[13:20] ---**
U-Um, the only direction
you can go is "cat"?
**[13:25] ---**
Cats are my identity!
**[13:28] ---**
But...
**[13:29] ---**
What about you?
Always going "rock, rock"!
**[13:33] ---**
M-Maybe I do, but...
**[13:36] ---**
Besides, cat ears are
a key item for work.
**[13:40] ---**
The mood just changes
when they're on, right?
**[13:43] ---**
I become really cute, like a cat!
**[13:46] ---**
Anya-chan becomes Anyan!
**[13:49] ---**
You look good!
**[13:50] ---**
Uzuki-chan is Uzu-nyan!
Rin-chan is Shibu-nyan!
**[13:54] ---**
Shibu-nyan?
**[13:55] ---**
And me?
**[13:57] ---**
Mio-nyan!
**[13:58] ---**
That's cute!
**[14:00] ---**
See? Everyone becomes cute,
right? Cute is crucial for idols.
**[14:05] ---**
The question is
do you need the character?
**[14:10] ---**
Of course. You saw
Nana-chan yesterday, right?
**[14:15] ---**
A cute character with impact
appeals to audiences,
**[14:19] ---**
and I think that's
the best thing for the ball.
**[14:25] ---**
It seems the current company policy
discourages those things in other units.
**[14:38] ---**
P-chan...
**[14:41] ---**
Then what Riina-chan said...
**[14:43] ---**
...was correct.
**[14:45] ---**
Only a handful have
been told at this point, but...
**[14:49] ---**
That includes our department?
**[14:52] ---**
Of course I don't
intend to discourage that.
**[14:56] ---**
But one person has suddenly
been cut as a regular on the TV show.
**[15:08] ---**
Why don't you come home
and learn to be a homemaker?
**[15:13] ---**
My dream was so close to coming true...
**[15:18] ---**
I don't wanna give up just yet!
**[15:24] ---**
Me without my cat character...
**[15:27] ---**
No no, that's out of the question!
**[15:33] ---**
But Nana-chan's regular
weather corner was cut...
**[15:43] ---**
Hello? P-chan!
**[15:46] ---**
Nana Abe-san has a video game
promotion event tomorrow.
**[15:51] ---**
If you're free to observe...
**[15:57] ---**
- Miku, do you have a job?
- No, not exactly.
**[16:01] ---**
See you later.
**[16:04] ---**
Sorry to keep you, nya.
Huh? Where's Riina-chan?
**[16:08] ---**
Today it's just...
**[16:18] ---**
Excuse me. It's about
time to get ready. Thanks.
**[16:21] ---**
R-Right!
**[16:36] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[16:38] ---**
Nana-chan...
**[16:41] ---**
Um...
**[16:43] ---**
Sheesh!
**[16:47] ---**
Miku-chan! One pair of
glasses changes your whole image.
**[16:51] ---**
I have mixed feelings
about that positive feedback.
**[16:55] ---**
Huh? Why aren't you
wearing bunny ears today?
**[16:59] ---**
Um... The bunny ears are...
**[17:08] ---**
You're giving up the ears?
**[17:11] ---**
N-No!
**[17:12] ---**
I'm Bunnyears from the planet
Bunnyears, so I can't give up...
**[17:18] ---**
But if the company tells me I can't
wear them, I may not have a choice.
**[17:24] ---**
Don't say that.
**[17:27] ---**
If somebody tells you to stop, you will!
Is that all Bunnyears is to you?
**[17:34] ---**
Miku-chan...
**[17:35] ---**
I thought you were cool, Nana-chan.
**[17:39] ---**
When Bunnyears power got everyone
excited, it gave me courage!
**[17:45] ---**
I-I...
**[17:48] ---**
Don't.
**[17:51] ---**
I thought of you
as my goal, Nana-chan.
**[17:56] ---**
Nana-chan, you...
**[18:06] ---**
Um, hello, everyone!
**[18:10] ---**
Welcome to today's Rhythmon event!
**[18:13] ---**
I'm your host, Bun...
**[18:16] ---**
Nana Abe!
**[18:19] ---**
Who's that?
**[18:20] ---**
Um... Do you all play Rhythmon?
**[18:25] ---**
You do... right?
**[18:28] ---**
P-chan...
**[18:29] ---**
What should we do?
**[18:33] ---**
Should we obey what
the company's decided on?
**[18:37] ---**
Should we change our characters?
**[18:41] ---**
Our own way of doing things?
**[18:44] ---**
I invited Tada-san
to observe today too.
**[18:50] ---**
This issue also ties in to
the balance of the unit,
**[18:55] ---**
but since being told to
continue with lessons and wait,
**[19:01] ---**
I think Tada-san
wanted you to decide.
**[19:07] ---**
On a way to have
a genuine smile...
**[19:12] ---**
So please check out the site.
**[19:19] ---**
Nana-chan!
**[19:22] ---**
Miku-chan...
**[19:25] ---**
Ears! Ears! Bunnyears!
**[19:28] ---**
Ears! Ears! Bunnyears!
**[19:32] ---**
What is that?
**[19:34] ---**
Is something starting?
**[19:41] ---**
Is this okay?
**[19:43] ---**
It's fine. And I'm prepared.
**[19:46] ---**
Bunnyears!
**[19:48] ---**
Ears! Ears! Bunnyears!
**[19:56] ---**
Beep beep beep! It's
a message from planet Bunnyears!
**[20:00] ---**
The Bunnyears cheer said the static that
blocked my Fairy Tale Change is gone!
**[20:06] ---**
I'm unlocking the seal
on my transformation!
**[20:10] ---**
One, two...
**[20:11] ---**
Fairy Tale Change!
**[20:14] ---**
Nana-chan!
**[20:19] ---**
Thanks for waiting! Here's today's first
eye-popping event for the Rhythmon show!
**[20:25] ---**
With love and hope in both ears,
I am from planet Bunnyears,
**[20:30] ---**
and I'm here to give
you a rare Rhythmon!
**[20:33] ---**
Are you ready, everyone?
**[20:37] ---**
Here I go! One, two...
**[20:40] ---**
Heart Wave Piri-pirin!
**[20:47] ---**
Thank you, Bunnyears!
**[20:51] ---**
Thank you!
**[20:52] ---**
Did you all get it beamed straight from
planet Bunnyears on a wave of love?
**[20:58] ---**
Yes!
**[21:00] ---**
Bunnyears in Rhythmon World!
**[21:03] ---**
Have a good time with Bunnyears!
**[21:06] ---**
Yay!
**[21:11] ---**
Thank you, Miku-chan.
**[21:14] ---**
I'm glad I got to do
this one last job as Bunnyears.
**[21:19] ---**
Uh-uh, you're just getting started.
**[21:23] ---**
The company said stuff. So what?
**[21:26] ---**
You and I will make them
accept what's important to us.
**[21:31] ---**
Miku-chan!
**[21:35] ---**
That was a nice performance.
**[21:39] ---**
Yeah! Nana-chan really
is a wonderful idol, nya!
**[21:43] ---**
I can't let her beat me, nya!
**[21:46] ---**
Um, P-chan, what I asked
you about before...
**[21:50] ---**
What do you think?
**[21:53] ---**
I think it's interesting.
Let's talk to everyone else about it.
**[21:58] ---**
Right!
**[22:02] ---**
You want our help?
**[22:04] ---**
Yes. Regardless of departments, I hope
you'll participate in our next project.
**[22:10] ---**
I've already talked
to your department about it.
**[22:14] ---**
- You don't have to ask me twice!
- I'm in!
**[22:23] ---**
Characters really are
important for idols.
**[22:26] ---**
You thinking what I'm thinking?
**[22:27] ---**
Of course!
**[22:29] ---**
I'm gonna stick to my guns!
**[22:33] ---**
I don't mind that rockwise.
**[22:36] ---**
- Then you'll wear cat ears too, nya?
- No way.
**[22:40] ---**
It seems things are back to normal.
**[22:42] ---**
No...
**[22:43] ---**
I think it'll get even livelier.
**[22:45] ---**
V!

**[00:17] ---**
What is this?
**[00:19] ---**
A notice from upstairs.
**[00:21] ---**
We have a tie-up with a makeup company,
so we're going "high-class adult."
**[00:27] ---**
But I've always
worn gal-style fashion...
**[00:32] ---**
I know. But I'm afraid of what'll happen
to our division if we don't comply.
**[00:39] ---**
Rumor is there'll be a major shake-up
for underperforming departments.
**[00:46] ---**
Don't tell me Nao and Karen's
CD debut has been canceled...
**[00:51] ---**
No. For the moment, new
plans have just been put on hold.
**[00:57] ---**
But we don't know what
will happen from here on...
**[02:53] ---**
It seems Mika Jougasaki's
tie-up is getting good results.
**[02:58] ---**
Yes. But this is only
the tip of the iceberg.
**[03:02] ---**
The real reforms are about to begin.
**[03:06] ---**
Reforms, huh?
**[03:08] ---**
I've already said it many times, but I
think this reorganization is too sudden.
**[03:16] ---**
Our idol division
has only been up a few years.
**[03:20] ---**
Each department has their own method and
is just starting to produce results...
**[03:27] ---**
Their own method.
**[03:29] ---**
That isn't necessary.
**[03:31] ---**
I've stated this many times as well.
**[03:34] ---**
Planning and implementing projects
to match the idols' personalities
**[03:39] ---**
takes too long to succeed.
**[03:41] ---**
Most importantly, doing it like that
doesn't suit the name "Mishiro."
**[03:49] ---**
You say 346 Production's
a few years old,
**[03:53] ---**
but it's part of the Mishiro Group,
a full entertainment firm with history.
**[03:59] ---**
The idea to develop idols'
individuality is fine in the main.
**[04:03] ---**
However, it has to be
in step with this company.
**[04:10] ---**
It's comparable to
a princess in a beautiful castle.
**[04:15] ---**
That's how I see it.
**[04:27] ---**
To make "Cinderella's Ball" a success,
**[04:30] ---**
you must all step up your game
while increasing your name recognition.
**[04:36] ---**
Therefore...
**[04:38] ---**
"Totokira Academy"?
**[04:42] ---**
A variety show set
in a school classroom.
**[04:46] ---**
Then we get to be on TV?
**[04:49] ---**
Yes. It'll be a regular weekly show.
**[04:54] ---**
A regular show is amazing!
**[04:57] ---**
Having to tape a show every
week seems like it'd be a pain...
**[05:03] ---**
Of course Anzu-chan would say that.
**[05:09] ---**
But wasn't it hard to get a variety show
approved with the company climate now?
**[05:18] ---**
I thought a variety show
**[05:20] ---**
featuring personalities, not just
singing and dancing, was vital.
**[05:25] ---**
Right, nya! Having a character
is vital after all, nya!
**[05:31] ---**
Moroboshi-san and Airi Totoki-san
will play the teachers and act as MCs.
**[05:37] ---**
Right.
**[05:38] ---**
Akagi-san and
Jougasaki-san will play students.
**[05:43] ---**
Okay!
**[05:46] ---**
There are lots of cute girls!
**[05:49] ---**
So they'll play students too, right?
**[05:53] ---**
Yes.
**[05:54] ---**
I talked to other departments about this
project and gathered all the kid idols.
**[06:02] ---**
We're not the only ones who
disagree with the current direction.
**[06:07] ---**
I believe it's necessary to stick with
those departments that feel as we do.
**[06:15] ---**
Joining forces as
the resistance is rockin'!
**[06:18] ---**
If this project succeeds, it'll become
a big step towards "Cinderella's Ball."
**[06:26] ---**
Hearing that gets me fired up!
**[06:29] ---**
Although it's not like
you'll be on the show.
**[06:33] ---**
Yeah, I know, but still...
**[06:37] ---**
Желаю удачи. Good luck.
**[06:41] ---**
- Leave it to us!
- Yeah!
**[06:43] ---**
My sexy charm will knock
everyone out in their living rooms!
**[06:48] ---**
DEKORATION ON TOTOKIRA ACADEMY!!
**[06:48] ---**
Now's the time to flap pitch-black wings
and aim for the glistening heavens!
**[06:55] ---**
Yeah!
**[07:05] ---**
Sis, listen to this!
I'm gonna be on TV!
**[07:10] ---**
And it's a regular
weekly show! Great, right?
**[07:14] ---**
Yeah. Yeah! Miria-chan and Kirari-chan
will be on it too! And also...
**[07:20] ---**
Yes!
**[07:31] ---**
I'm back!
**[07:32] ---**
Oh, welcome home, Miria.
**[07:34] ---**
Guess what? Today I got the news...
**[07:39] ---**
All right! It's okay...
I'm on my way.
**[07:44] ---**
Mom, I'm gonna be on TV...
**[07:47] ---**
Sorry. Tell me later.
**[07:54] ---**
Rika, you're gonna be on TV?
**[07:57] ---**
Wow! You really are an idol now!
**[08:01] ---**
I bet it's a show for little kids!
**[08:05] ---**
'Cause Jougasaki is still a little kid!
**[08:09] ---**
You're the kids here.
**[08:11] ---**
That's right! That's right!
**[08:13] ---**
What makes us kids?
**[08:15] ---**
When we had that field trip, you
didn't catch more beetles than me.
**[08:21] ---**
B-Bringing that up
makes you a brat!
**[08:25] ---**
Y-Yeah! If you're not a little kid,
show us some proof!
**[08:32] ---**
Fine! I will then!
**[08:34] ---**
Get ready, because I'm gonna show you
that I'm a sexy, charismatic girl on TV!
**[08:44] ---**
T-This is...
**[08:47] ---**
They said matching uniforms would be
better, so we're supposed to wear this.
**[08:52] ---**
Huh...
**[08:54] ---**
It's been a while since I've worn one.
Now that I've grown, will it fit me?
**[09:00] ---**
You're silly. These are costumes,
so they've made them to our sizes.
**[09:06] ---**
They gave me this job,
so I'll do my best!
**[09:11] ---**
Putting this on makes me
feel like a kindergartener again.
**[09:19] ---**
TOTOKIRA ACADEMY
**[09:22] ---**
Looking good! Looking good!
**[09:25] ---**
Get a feel for things
in today's rehearsal.
**[09:28] ---**
All right, let's start a camera test!
**[09:31] ---**
Right!
**[09:33] ---**
Totoki...
**[09:34] ---**
...and Kirari's...
**[09:36] ---**
...Totokira Academy!
**[09:41] ---**
This program's a helpful
variety show that solves
**[09:44] ---**
problems you viewers send in with
the help of our classroom friends!
**[09:49] ---**
No matter what the problem is,
we'll lend a helping hand!
**[09:54] ---**
And cut! Okay!
**[09:56] ---**
Why don't we go on to self-intros?
**[10:01] ---**
Okay! I'm Kaoru Ryuzaki!
I'll do my best with the teachers!
**[10:07] ---**
I'm Nina Ichihara!
Nice to meet you!
**[10:12] ---**
Um, I, uh, I'll work hard
to make everyone happy.
**[10:19] ---**
I'm Chie Sasaki.
**[10:21] ---**
I hope everyone's well. Nothing is
impossible for me, Momoka Sakurai.
**[10:27] ---**
I'm Miria Akagi, and I love to talk!
**[10:34] ---**
I'm Rika Jougasaki.
**[10:37] ---**
Okay, cut.
**[10:39] ---**
Rika-chan, is it?
That wasn't energetic.
**[10:43] ---**
One more time!
**[10:46] ---**
I'm Rika Jougasaki!
**[10:48] ---**
One more time! With a bigger smile!
**[10:56] ---**
I had business.
Sorry I couldn't stop by.
**[10:59] ---**
It seems there was
a slight change. Was it okay?
**[11:03] ---**
It was perfect! I'm positive this is
going to be a happy-happy show!
**[11:08] ---**
Let me talk!
**[11:09] ---**
Miria-chan wants to talk.
**[11:12] ---**
I did a really good job! The director
told me I had a lot of energy!
**[11:20] ---**
Yeah. I'll let Rika-chan talk.
**[11:23] ---**
Here.
**[11:24] ---**
O-Okay.
**[11:27] ---**
I-I was perfect too.
**[11:30] ---**
But...
**[11:30] ---**
It's all right. Don't worry about it!
**[11:34] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:35] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[11:37] ---**
Leave this to us and do what you have to.
**[11:41] ---**
Yeah... Yeah.
**[11:45] ---**
I'm back!
**[11:47] ---**
Welcome home.
**[11:48] ---**
Mom, I...
**[11:51] ---**
Okay, okay!
Sorry, Miria. Wait a minute.
**[11:55] ---**
Look, Mama's here.
**[11:57] ---**
Yeah, sure.
**[12:04] ---**
Mika-chan changed her image.
**[12:06] ---**
It's cool, but she's so
not one of us anymore.
**[12:10] ---**
I know, right?
**[12:18] ---**
I can't help it. Being an idol
isn't fun and games.
**[12:22] ---**
I can't just make demands.
**[12:29] ---**
But...
**[12:42] ---**
VARIETY SHOW PLAN
**[12:51] ---**
What would Sis do?
**[12:58] ---**
She's still not home.
**[13:01] ---**
I'm back.
**[13:04] ---**
Sis!
**[13:07] ---**
W-What's all this? You scared me.
**[13:10] ---**
Listen to this, Sis!
I'm in kindergarten on TV!
**[13:15] ---**
What's that about?
**[13:17] ---**
My new job has me
wearing a kindergarten outfit.
**[13:21] ---**
When I show up on TV like that, they'll
all laugh at me.
**[13:25] ---**
They'll call me a kid!
**[13:28] ---**
Is that all?
**[13:28] ---**
It's a big deal! I wanna be like you!
**[13:33] ---**
I hate the costume! I wanna wear
mature clothes like you're wearing now!
**[13:42] ---**
In that case...
**[13:44] ---**
In that case,
why not quit being an idol?
**[13:47] ---**
If you just want to wear
clothes you like, don't be one.
**[13:52] ---**
If you're fooling around, you'll
bother girls who take it seriously!
**[13:57] ---**
Sis...
**[14:26] ---**
Maybe I was a little too
hard on her last night.
**[14:30] ---**
I think I was taking
my stress out on her.
**[14:38] ---**
Miria-chan!
**[14:41] ---**
Mika-chan!
**[14:43] ---**
Why are you so blue?
**[14:46] ---**
I'm not blue.
**[14:50] ---**
It's just... It feels like
I've got a dark cloud here.
**[14:54] ---**
Right here?
**[15:00] ---**
How about you, Mika-chan?
**[15:05] ---**
I think I've got
a dark cloud too.
**[15:12] ---**
Hey, Miria-chan. If you've got time,
would you hang out with me?
**[15:27] ---**
We've been waiting!
**[15:29] ---**
Have a seat!
**[15:31] ---**
I'm proud of what I made today!
**[15:32] ---**
I'll pour some tea!
**[15:35] ---**
Ta-da!
**[15:37] ---**
It looks delicious!
**[15:39] ---**
Could you be trying
to make me feel better?
**[15:44] ---**
Um, you weren't your usual self
yesterday, so we were a bit worried...
**[15:50] ---**
If something happened,
tell us about it.
**[15:58] ---**
It's about Totokira Academy...
**[16:04] ---**
I see...
**[16:08] ---**
I know I have to give this show my
all for the sake of "Cinderella's Ball."
**[16:16] ---**
But I don't know how to think
about it and complained to Sis...
**[16:22] ---**
So she got mad
at me for being selfish...
**[16:27] ---**
Why don't you talk
to the producer about it?
**[16:32] ---**
No, something like this
I have to figure out on my own.
**[16:38] ---**
What a pain...
**[16:42] ---**
Anzu-chan...
**[16:43] ---**
No matter what you wear, you're still
you, so who cares about clothes?
**[16:49] ---**
But clothes are important!
**[16:51] ---**
If you wear clothes you like,
you're happy-happy inside and out!
**[16:57] ---**
And if you gussy it up to suit your
own style, you get even happy-happier!
**[17:04] ---**
But whatever outfit you wear,
Kirari's Kirari in the end.
**[17:08] ---**
That's not it!
**[17:10] ---**
What's important is whether what
you're wearing gets you excited or not!
**[17:15] ---**
But you're still Kirari...
**[17:18] ---**
No matter what you wear,
you're still you...
**[17:21] ---**
If you gussy it up to suit your
own style, you'll become happy-happy...
**[17:28] ---**
I'm telling you...
**[17:30] ---**
I've got it!
**[17:32] ---**
Kirari-chan, Anzu-chan!
**[17:34] ---**
I'll try it!
**[17:37] ---**
SHIBUYA CENTER GAI
**[17:50] ---**
MIKA MIRIA
**[18:03] ---**
That was fun!
**[18:05] ---**
Seems that dark cloud
in your chest went away, huh?
**[18:09] ---**
Yeah!
**[18:13] ---**
I'm a big sister now.
**[18:17] ---**
Since my little sister was born, Mom's
been so busy every time she cries...
**[18:26] ---**
I know how that is.
**[18:30] ---**
Right after Rika was born, whenever
I had something to tell Mom,
**[18:34] ---**
it was always, "Later, Mika-chan.
After Rika stops crying."
**[18:42] ---**
Yes! That's it exactly!
**[18:47] ---**
It's hard being a big sister!
**[18:50] ---**
Let's support each other as big sisters.
If things are tough, I'll always listen.
**[18:56] ---**
And if things are ever tough on
you, be sure to tell me about it.
**[19:01] ---**
It's never tough on me...
**[19:13] ---**
H-Huh?
**[19:15] ---**
Why am I...
Must have dust in my eyes...
**[19:30] ---**
Sorry, Miria-chan.
**[19:32] ---**
That's okay. Even big sisters
feel like crying once in a while.
**[19:53] ---**
Good morning, Mom.
**[19:55] ---**
Good morning, Miria. Wash your
face. Breakfast is about ready...
**[20:04] ---**
I'll take over breakfast, Mom.
**[20:08] ---**
Sorry. I won't be long.
**[20:16] ---**
Thanks, Miria.
**[20:20] ---**
You know, you've got
a dependable big sister.
**[20:30] ---**
I'm sorry, Sis.
**[20:32] ---**
"I'll do my best on this job, so come
and see the taping today. Rika."
**[20:42] ---**
I'm sorry too.
**[20:47] ---**
I'm Nina Ichihara!
Nice to meet you!
**[20:52] ---**
I'm Chie Sasaki.
I'll work hard to make everyone happy.
**[20:56] ---**
Please give me your support!
**[20:59] ---**
I hope everyone's well. Nothing is
impossible for me, Momoka Sakurai.
**[21:10] ---**
My little sister was born, so now
I'm a big sister! Big sisters, fight!
**[21:15] ---**
I'm Miria Akagi.
**[21:25] ---**
I'm a sexy, charismatic gal,
Rika Jougasaki!
**[21:29] ---**
You give the gal peace sign even
though you're in kindergarten?
**[21:34] ---**
After all, I am who I am! And I haven't
forgotten to secretly spruce it up!
**[21:39] ---**
Wow!
**[21:41] ---**
"After all, I am who I am..."
**[21:50] ---**
It looks like this'll be a good show.
**[21:52] ---**
Yes. Their smiles are dazzling.
**[21:58] ---**
Yeah. Seeing this makes
me think I can't do any less.
**[22:07] ---**
Strike a pose please.
**[22:10] ---**
Sure.
**[22:20] ---**
Sorry, that pose is a little...
**[22:24] ---**
Not bad. I have no problem.
**[22:26] ---**
But, sensei...
**[22:28] ---**
I like it. Very nice.
**[22:30] ---**
This image shows her inner strength.
**[22:37] ---**
I guess this is what it means
to be the big sister, huh?
**[22:41] ---**
Of course.
**[22:43] ---**
After all, I'm the charismatic middle
schooler Rika Jougasaki's big sister!
**[22:50] ---**
Yeah!

**[00:01] ---**
- Totoki...
- ...and Kirari's...
**[00:04] ---**
...Totokira Academy!
**[00:06] ---**
We're with the
Cherry Blossom class today.
**[00:10] ---**
These are some big kindergarteners.
**[00:13] ---**
After all,
**[00:14] ---**
we lied about our ages, right?
**[00:17] ---**
I-I'm eternally 17!
**[00:21] ---**
That's not kindergarten age!
**[00:25] ---**
Anzu-dono, you look
like you belong here.
**[00:27] ---**
With such clever disguises,
maybe you can be a ninja!
**[00:32] ---**
Anzu-chan, nin-nin!
**[00:34] ---**
Really? Then I'll make like
a ninja and disappear.
**[00:39] ---**
You can't leave!
**[00:41] ---**
LAUGH!
**[00:43] ---**
Those two are the same age?
**[00:45] ---**
Yes. They're both 17.
**[00:47] ---**
Bad girl!
**[00:50] ---**
They don't look the same age.
At a glance, I'd say mother and child.
**[00:55] ---**
Frog, frog...
**[00:57] ---**
Do you two have any problems?
**[01:00] ---**
Um...
**[01:01] ---**
I guess I can't stop eating sweets.
**[01:05] ---**
I have too many...
**[01:06] ---**
Cute!
**[01:10] ---**
All right!
Time for Totokira Academy...
**[01:14] ---**
...to start!
**[02:53] ---**
Totokira Academy is popular!
**[02:56] ---**
The ratings are pretty good too.
**[03:00] ---**
I'm sure this'll make
Executive Director Mishiro go "grrrr"!
**[03:08] ---**
What's wrong?
**[03:13] ---**
I wanted to do my best for the sake
of "Cinderella's Ball" but got nervous.
**[03:19] ---**
My tongue was tied too.
**[03:22] ---**
No no, you had great reactions.
**[03:25] ---**
"What the heck?" That was cute.
**[03:29] ---**
Thank you.
**[03:31] ---**
That's because Anzu-chan had
good timing with saying silly things.
**[03:37] ---**
Anzu's actually good
at tying the unit together.
**[03:41] ---**
Just drawing on years
of everyone else's experience.
**[03:46] ---**
Oh no! I'm so happy!
**[03:51] ---**
What is it, Kirarin?
**[03:53] ---**
"Oh no"? Or you're happy?
**[03:56] ---**
Both!
**[03:59] ---**
"Ankiranking"?
**[04:01] ---**
Wow! A segment featuring them?
**[04:05] ---**
Totokira Academy's new segment.
**[04:07] ---**
One of the executives saw the
last taping and thought you two
**[04:13] ---**
had good chemistry together.
**[04:16] ---**
- Let's do it! Let's do it!
- Cut it out!
**[04:20] ---**
Why don't you try it
a few times and see how it is?
**[04:26] ---**
Well, in that case... I don't
think it'll last long anyway.
**[04:31] ---**
Knock it off!
**[04:33] ---**
And for you two also...
**[04:36] ---**
We have one too?
**[04:38] ---**
You're going to do taped
interviews for that segment.
**[04:45] ---**
Interviews?
**[04:47] ---**
I wonder if I can...
**[04:49] ---**
I think you two need
this assignment right now.
**[04:53] ---**
We do?
**[05:00] ---**
Sure!
**[05:01] ---**
I'll do my best.
**[05:03] ---**
Will it really be okay?
**[05:04] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:06] ---**
Everyone's doing their best for the ball.
**[05:09] ---**
So I have to do my best too!
**[05:12] ---**
Me too. I want to get over my
shyness and be able to talk normally.
**[05:19] ---**
Well, if you two want to.
**[05:22] ---**
Let's all do our best!
**[05:23] ---**
Yeah!
**[05:25] ---**
- Anzu...
- ...and Kirari's...
**[05:27] ---**
Ankiranking!
**[05:30] ---**
Happy-happy gossip around town!
**[05:32] ---**
We'll introduce it in ranking format!
**[05:40] ---**
I can't do this...
**[05:41] ---**
Good work.
**[05:43] ---**
We have a meeting once you change.
**[05:46] ---**
Okay!
**[05:47] ---**
My batteries are dead. Slump.
**[05:51] ---**
Hang in there, Anzu-chan!
**[05:54] ---**
Here!
**[05:55] ---**
G-Guess I don't have a choice...
**[05:58] ---**
Then I'll see you shortly.
**[06:00] ---**
Producer...
**[06:02] ---**
Is the next ranking's
theme already decided?
**[06:06] ---**
No.
**[06:07] ---**
Then let's do sweets
or a food-related theme.
**[06:10] ---**
Good idea! That's easy for Kanako-chan
and Chieri-chan to comment on.
**[06:16] ---**
Let's pitch that for the next episode.
**[06:24] ---**
Have you...
**[06:25] ---**
Sorry! Have you lost something?
**[06:29] ---**
N-No. I was looking
for a four-leaf clover...
**[06:33] ---**
That's your hobby, isn't it?
**[06:36] ---**
Yes. If I find one, maybe today's
location shoot will go well.
**[06:42] ---**
I see.
**[06:47] ---**
Producer-san?
**[06:49] ---**
Is it meaningless if I find one?
**[06:52] ---**
No! Thank you!
**[06:57] ---**
Good morning...
**[06:58] ---**
W-What's wrong?
**[07:00] ---**
I can't find a four-leaf clover...
**[07:04] ---**
Really?
**[07:10] ---**
I baked this for
today's location shoot.
**[07:14] ---**
See?
**[07:15] ---**
A clover...
**[07:17] ---**
- Here you go.
- Thank you.
**[07:21] ---**
You too, Producer-san.
**[07:25] ---**
Thank you.
**[07:30] ---**
We're in front of the station
for the favorite-character ranking!
**[07:36] ---**
I-I wonder how
Pinya Korata will be ranked.
**[07:40] ---**
Yay!
**[07:41] ---**
Cut! Don't let
Pinya upstage you.
**[07:44] ---**
- Right...
- Sorry!
**[07:49] ---**
Let's do passerby interviews next.
**[07:52] ---**
Okay!
**[07:53] ---**
Let's do our best!
**[07:54] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[07:56] ---**
Frog, frog...
**[08:01] ---**
Excuse me! I'm with
Totokira Academy...
**[08:04] ---**
- Chieri-chan, you're in the shot!
- Sorry!
**[08:08] ---**
U-Um...
**[08:13] ---**
Pinya, go!
**[08:20] ---**
Good work.
**[08:23] ---**
Shall we have some tea?
**[08:29] ---**
It seems they can
use it for the segment.
**[08:32] ---**
They said they liked your "innocence."
**[08:36] ---**
Really?
**[08:38] ---**
Good.
**[08:40] ---**
But I still wasn't any good at it.
**[08:45] ---**
Use today's experience
to do better next time.
**[08:49] ---**
Right...
**[08:51] ---**
Okay.
**[08:56] ---**
How's Totokira going?
**[08:59] ---**
Good question. We've only
just started, so it's really hectic,
**[09:04] ---**
but everyone's
rising to the occasion.
**[09:08] ---**
It was getting crowded here, huh?
**[09:11] ---**
Now Sachiko and the
rest are on different jobs.
**[09:14] ---**
Everyone's got a
packed schedule these days.
**[09:21] ---**
What's wrong?
**[09:24] ---**
We thought we'd get
some interview tips.
**[09:28] ---**
Huh, look at all these books...
**[09:32] ---**
Your tea has gotten cold.
**[09:35] ---**
T-Thanks!
**[09:37] ---**
Would you like some too, Kanako?
**[09:39] ---**
Thank you.
**[09:41] ---**
But I'd better get training.
**[09:45] ---**
Что?
**[09:46] ---**
Huh? Was that on the schedule?
**[09:52] ---**
Kanako, fight! давай, давай!
**[09:55] ---**
What's with Mimura?
**[09:58] ---**
Hello.
**[10:00] ---**
It seems she's on a diet...
**[10:03] ---**
Kanako-chan said she
wants to focus her energy.
**[10:07] ---**
She said she messes
up when she's not focused.
**[10:12] ---**
I have to do my best too.
**[10:16] ---**
But don't overdo it.
Your body needs rest.
**[10:20] ---**
R-Right...
**[10:23] ---**
Kanako and Chieri
are working hard.
**[10:26] ---**
Though it seems
they're feeling the pressure.
**[10:30] ---**
I wonder if this is
also a trial for the ball.
**[10:35] ---**
Um, the ball will decide whether
our departments can go on, right?
**[10:41] ---**
Yeah. If we don't show
results there, we'll be dissolved.
**[10:46] ---**
Yes. That's right.
**[10:49] ---**
But on the other hand,
it's our chance!
**[10:52] ---**
We can use it to
show off our ability, right?
**[10:56] ---**
Such confidence.
**[10:57] ---**
Of course!
**[10:59] ---**
I'm the leader
of New Generations!
**[11:03] ---**
Mio-chan!
**[11:05] ---**
It must be nice to have a goal.
**[11:09] ---**
Hey, wanna do
something in it too?
**[11:12] ---**
Good idea.
**[11:14] ---**
We're inviting people from other departments.
**[11:17] ---**
But we haven't
made a CD debut yet...
**[11:20] ---**
That doesn't matter!
The more, the merrier.
**[11:27] ---**
Thank you!
**[11:29] ---**
I'm touched.
**[11:32] ---**
TODAY'S SCHEDULE
LOCATION INTERVIEW ANKIRANKING TAPING
**[11:36] ---**
Nyahoi!
**[11:37] ---**
And Anzu-chan is already here!
**[11:42] ---**
Anzu's doors are closed.
**[11:44] ---**
Then let's eat candy as we go.
**[11:49] ---**
Work, huh?
**[11:51] ---**
Well, see you later.
**[11:54] ---**
I'm sorry I can't be there.
**[11:57] ---**
Leave it to me!
**[12:01] ---**
Moroboshi-san.
**[12:02] ---**
Yes?
**[12:05] ---**
How is the new segment going?
**[12:07] ---**
It's fun. Why?
**[12:15] ---**
P-chan, put your hand out.
**[12:18] ---**
Okay...
**[12:21] ---**
There.
**[12:24] ---**
Sucking on hard candy will
make you happy-happy. It'll be fine.
**[12:43] ---**
Kanako-chan and Chieri-chan
are working hard.
**[12:47] ---**
I guess.
**[12:53] ---**
We'd better get to work.
**[12:55] ---**
You don't need to take a break?
**[13:06] ---**
Cute Me...
**[13:08] ---**
...and Baseball...
**[13:09] ---**
...Stroll!
**[13:11] ---**
Today we'll introduce you to
an old but charming neighborhood.
**[13:16] ---**
The residents are so lucky
to get a visit from cute me!
**[13:21] ---**
Let's go! Play ball!
**[13:24] ---**
Okay, cut.
**[13:26] ---**
Thank you.
**[13:28] ---**
Sachiko-chan's group
is so professional...
**[13:33] ---**
Are you on location too?
**[13:34] ---**
Y-Yes!
**[13:36] ---**
You came to see cute me, didn't you?
**[13:39] ---**
Are those girls idols too?
**[13:41] ---**
I-It's okay.
**[13:43] ---**
We're not going to fail today...
**[13:47] ---**
Y-Yeah. Frog, frog, frog...
**[13:51] ---**
Um...
**[13:51] ---**
We'll do our best!
**[13:54] ---**
They sure are fired up.
**[13:57] ---**
Today we'd like to speak
to an Edo glass-art craftsman.
**[14:03] ---**
So let's go in.
**[14:06] ---**
We're with Totokira Academy.
Nice to meet you!
**[14:09] ---**
What?
**[14:11] ---**
Nice to meet you!
**[14:15] ---**
I see.
**[14:17] ---**
So it's a tradition that's been
passed down since the Edo period.
**[14:21] ---**
Though it doesn't interest kids much.
**[14:24] ---**
That's not true!
**[14:26] ---**
It's beautiful! Right?
**[14:28] ---**
Y-Yeah! I think it's lovely!
**[14:34] ---**
What do you like
about this glass art?
**[14:39] ---**
No, um...
**[14:41] ---**
Never mind.
You're here because it's your job.
**[14:46] ---**
We really think it's beautiful...
**[14:49] ---**
Your face tells a different story.
**[14:53] ---**
Get whatever footage you want.
**[14:55] ---**
- I-I'm sorry...
- Um...
**[15:01] ---**
K-Kanako-chan?
**[15:03] ---**
Kanako-chan!
**[15:05] ---**
It's a popular shop.
**[15:07] ---**
Really? I can't wait!
**[15:14] ---**
Are you worried?
**[15:15] ---**
Shall we visit Kanako-chan and Chieri-chan later?
**[15:19] ---**
No, that's okay.
**[15:21] ---**
It's a pain.
**[15:23] ---**
Anzu-chan, you should
be honest with yourself.
**[15:27] ---**
Otherwise, you'll feel a really
painful squeeze right here.
**[15:35] ---**
Do you get squeezed
like that, Kirari?
**[15:40] ---**
What do you really think
about working with me?
**[15:46] ---**
Why did you suddenly go on a diet?
**[15:49] ---**
I lose focus easily.
**[15:53] ---**
I thought that's why
it wasn't working well.
**[15:58] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[16:00] ---**
Kanako-chan...
**[16:02] ---**
I'm sorry.
I need to work harder...
**[16:10] ---**
Excuse me.
**[16:13] ---**
For now, take this.
**[16:20] ---**
You too, Ogata-san.
**[16:22] ---**
B-But if I eat this...
**[16:25] ---**
No. You can't work at this rate.
**[16:29] ---**
But...
**[16:31] ---**
But...
**[16:33] ---**
You too, Ogata-san. I forbid you to
use "frog" as your good-luck crutch.
**[16:39] ---**
But without it, I...
**[16:42] ---**
Sheesh.
**[16:43] ---**
We came to check your shoot,
so why so forlorn?
**[16:50] ---**
They called on me because it's funny
when the two of us get together.
**[16:55] ---**
Since we're so different
despite being the same age.
**[16:59] ---**
You're right.
**[17:04] ---**
I'm a little bigger
than everyone else,
**[17:08] ---**
but getting to wear cute
clothes and do cute work
**[17:12] ---**
with cute Anzu-chan
makes me very happy-happy.
**[17:18] ---**
It makes me even happier when
people feel happy-happy watching us.
**[17:26] ---**
That's what I think.
**[17:29] ---**
That's why I can smile.
**[17:32] ---**
Kirari...
**[17:41] ---**
Kirarin Attack!
**[17:45] ---**
I love being with you, Anzu-chan.
**[17:50] ---**
How about you, Anzu-chan?
**[17:57] ---**
You're heavy.
**[18:00] ---**
What? You're using fake stoicism
as a charm? I'm so disappointed!
**[18:05] ---**
Hey. That's too harsh.
**[18:08] ---**
Sachiko-han is worried about you.
**[18:11] ---**
Hey! I was just going to give
them props as rivals for cute me!
**[18:18] ---**
But when they're like this...
**[18:23] ---**
Anyway, long faces like
that spoil everything.
**[18:29] ---**
It's hard when you're starting out,
but everyone worries when you look sad.
**[18:34] ---**
Even Sachiko-chan was
totally nervous at first!
**[18:38] ---**
Hey!
**[18:39] ---**
Excuse me! We're about ready!
**[18:42] ---**
Okay!
**[18:43] ---**
Anyway, snap out of it or else!
**[18:46] ---**
Yeah yeah. Okay, let's go.
**[18:50] ---**
Hey!
**[18:53] ---**
Idols should always
be facing forward!
**[18:57] ---**
Like cute me!
**[19:06] ---**
Sorry...
**[19:14] ---**
Sweet...
**[19:19] ---**
When you smile,
it makes me feel relieved.
**[19:25] ---**
I guess maybe
I wasn't facing forward...
**[19:30] ---**
Yeah.
**[19:31] ---**
Even though I meant to do my best...
**[19:35] ---**
Both of you were doing your best.
**[19:38] ---**
The only thing is
you weren't smiling.
**[19:43] ---**
I think this assignment
was a challenge for you.
**[19:47] ---**
I know it made you nervous,
**[19:50] ---**
but even so, I wanted
you to do it with a smile.
**[19:58] ---**
A smile...
**[20:01] ---**
You can't smile unless
you're having fun, right?
**[20:05] ---**
And I was using a "frog" charm
to keep from having to look around.
**[20:12] ---**
I couldn't see a thing,
**[20:14] ---**
not the inside of
the shop nor the owner's face.
**[20:19] ---**
But now I want
to see everything.
**[20:22] ---**
Good.
**[20:25] ---**
I am still nervous though.
**[20:30] ---**
If you'd like a charm
to help you face forward...
**[20:34] ---**
When did you...
**[20:42] ---**
There's the one where you write
"person" on your palm and swallow it.
**[21:05] ---**
U-Um...
**[21:09] ---**
Excuse me!
**[21:25] ---**
You're here to observe before you film.
**[21:29] ---**
Your work must be difficult.
**[21:32] ---**
We just want to introduce people
to things we think are wonderful.
**[21:41] ---**
"Sakanako"?
**[21:43] ---**
It reads as "nanako."
It's the pattern's name.
**[21:47] ---**
T-Thank you.
**[21:49] ---**
It's beautiful...
It made me curious.
**[21:54] ---**
What do you put inside?
**[21:56] ---**
- Anything would be okay...
- Would candy be all right?
**[22:01] ---**
Floating flowers inside
might look pretty.
**[22:05] ---**
The glass pattern
would sparkle with water.
**[22:08] ---**
Lovely!
**[22:13] ---**
If you like the nanako,
I've got more in the back.
**[22:17] ---**
Can we see them?
**[22:19] ---**
Sure.
**[22:21] ---**
Thank you!
**[23:01] ---**
Those are fine dishes.
**[23:05] ---**
Thank you!
**[23:07] ---**
Leave it to me to give
perfect advice to kouhais!
**[23:11] ---**
True...
**[23:13] ---**
Cute.
**[23:15] ---**
If you think you can placate me
with praise, you're absolutely right!
**[23:21] ---**
P-chan, we're done with work!
**[23:26] ---**
How was it?
**[23:30] ---**
One, two...
**[23:31] ---**
GREAT SUCCESS Ta-da!
**[23:32] ---**
GREAT SUCCESS Reward us later!
**[23:36] ---**
Good work.
**[23:40] ---**
Looks like they're
doing good work.
**[23:49] ---**
I hope they'll be able
to leave the Anzu nest soon.

**[00:02] ---**
Look!
**[00:04] ---**
I want cat ears and fluffy
decorations for our performance!
**[00:08] ---**
And I'm saying that's not rock!
**[00:11] ---**
Then tell me
what you do with rock!
**[00:14] ---**
I'm still thinking about that...
**[00:17] ---**
We have to power up by the ball.
**[00:20] ---**
We won't make it at that rate!
**[00:21] ---**
I know!
**[00:24] ---**
Those two are at it again.
**[00:27] ---**
As always.
**[02:08] ---**
Shall we try something new too?
**[02:11] ---**
I think we should keep doing
what we're doing and do it right.
**[02:16] ---**
Yeah!
**[02:19] ---**
Good morning!
**[02:22] ---**
Huh?
**[02:23] ---**
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
**[02:26] ---**
Hi.
**[02:27] ---**
Practicing by yourselves?
**[02:28] ---**
Yep.
**[02:29] ---**
With a New Generations song.
**[02:32] ---**
With our song?
**[02:34] ---**
R-Really? Wish
I could've seen that!
**[02:37] ---**
Since you're here,
why not try singing together?
**[02:41] ---**
But...
**[02:43] ---**
You don't mind?
**[02:45] ---**
Not at all!
**[02:46] ---**
It'll be helpful for us too.
**[02:48] ---**
Um... Then Rin. Okay?
**[02:52] ---**
Yeah.
**[02:53] ---**
Thank you.
**[02:55] ---**
Sure.
**[03:20] ---**
Huh. They sound good, don't they?
**[03:23] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[03:39] ---**
Director, is something wrong?
**[03:41] ---**
No. It's nothing.
**[03:45] ---**
Director Mishiro...
**[03:47] ---**
Pardon the interruption,
**[03:49] ---**
but I'd like this room
for in-house auditions.
**[03:52] ---**
Could you go to another room?
**[03:54] ---**
In-house auditions?
**[03:59] ---**
That was Shoko Hoshii-chan
and Ryo Matsunaga-chan right?
**[04:03] ---**
What in-house auditions?
**[04:06] ---**
Director Mishiro's starting
something new again?
**[04:10] ---**
Mika-senpai...
**[04:11] ---**
Don't call me "senpai."
**[04:13] ---**
Um, M-Mika...
**[04:16] ---**
Is this that rumor?
**[04:19] ---**
Rumor?
**[04:22] ---**
A specific idea...
**[04:24] ---**
My image of rock...
**[04:27] ---**
I have to hurry up
and think of that.
**[04:31] ---**
Natsuki Kimura-chan?
**[04:34] ---**
Yes. Apparently, they're going to make
an idol rock band centered around her.
**[04:41] ---**
An idol rock band...
**[04:44] ---**
Although I heard they haven't
decided on the other members yet...
**[04:50] ---**
I'm Natsuki Kimura. If you
ever want to talk rock, hit me up.
**[05:16] ---**
Hi.
**[05:18] ---**
Um...
**[05:20] ---**
Darina?
**[05:21] ---**
Riina Tada!
**[05:27] ---**
Um, is it true you're
going to form a rock band?
**[05:32] ---**
Oh, that.
**[05:34] ---**
Director Mishiro suddenly
called me in and told me.
**[05:38] ---**
I didn't really get it all,
but it sounds fun.
**[05:42] ---**
I figured it'd be worth a shot.
**[05:46] ---**
Oh...
**[05:47] ---**
Hey, don't you like rock too, Darina?
**[05:50] ---**
It's Riina!
**[05:52] ---**
Whatever. Close enough.
**[05:55] ---**
It's totally different!
**[05:56] ---**
Then let's say "Dari."
**[05:59] ---**
In that case, I'll call
you by a nickname too!
**[06:03] ---**
What nickname?
**[06:05] ---**
Na... Na... Natsu...
**[06:09] ---**
Natsukichi!
**[06:12] ---**
I like it! Okay!
We'll go with Natsukichi and Dari!
**[06:16] ---**
So what kind of rock
do you listen to, Dari?
**[06:20] ---**
You're always listening
to it, right? On those.
**[06:24] ---**
Yeah. Um, recently...
UK... for example.
**[06:31] ---**
Cool music, huh?
What kind of sound do you like?
**[06:35] ---**
Sound?
**[06:36] ---**
Hard rock?
**[06:38] ---**
Yeah...
**[06:40] ---**
I guess so...
**[06:42] ---**
What about metal?
**[06:44] ---**
Yeah, once in a while...
**[06:47] ---**
Once in a while, huh? What else?
**[06:51] ---**
P-Progressive, like that?
**[06:54] ---**
Huh, prog-rock?
That's a wide range there.
**[06:58] ---**
What about Japanese?
Could you recommend a band?
**[07:02] ---**
A-A band?
**[07:04] ---**
You go to clubs, right?
**[07:06] ---**
Clubs... Oh, clubs...
**[07:10] ---**
Uh, not much lately...
**[07:14] ---**
I see...
**[07:15] ---**
I-I used to go like,
on a daily basis...
**[07:22] ---**
It's a demo, but it's a song
I just made. Give it a listen.
**[07:27] ---**
Thanks...
**[07:28] ---**
Rock is great, isn't it?
**[07:32] ---**
I just hope my new band
members have good sounds.
**[08:26] ---**
Yay!
**[08:28] ---**
That was awesome!
**[08:31] ---**
Thank you for coming.
**[08:34] ---**
I wanted to sing more.
**[08:37] ---**
Hey, let's go to a
concert together next time.
**[08:41] ---**
Sure!
**[08:47] ---**
Yeah! Okay.
**[08:49] ---**
Now stand back to back.
Look this way and smile.
**[08:53] ---**
Right!
**[08:56] ---**
Riina-chan, back to back...
**[09:00] ---**
He just said to do it, nya.
Stand back to back and smile.
**[09:04] ---**
S-Sorry.
**[09:08] ---**
So I think each and
every concert is important, nya.
**[09:12] ---**
Let's try something
new at our next concert.
**[09:16] ---**
I'll do a daring, sexy dance...
**[09:20] ---**
Riina-chan?
**[09:22] ---**
What?
**[09:23] ---**
You weren't listening, nya?
**[09:25] ---**
S-Sorry! I was thinking
about something. Say it again.
**[09:30] ---**
Something wrong, nya?
You're daydreaming a lot lately.
**[09:34] ---**
Really?
**[09:36] ---**
Is something on your mind?
**[09:38] ---**
If so, talk to me, nya.
After all, we're partners.
**[09:43] ---**
I want to help, nya.
**[09:45] ---**
Miku...
**[09:47] ---**
Sorry, lost a little sleep lately...
I don't have anything on my mind.
**[09:53] ---**
Really?
**[09:55] ---**
Really and truly.
**[09:56] ---**
We've gotta get
fired up for the ball, right?
**[10:12] ---**
What am I doing?
**[10:17] ---**
Riina-chan's behavior?
**[10:20] ---**
I really think she's been strange.
**[10:22] ---**
Always distracted and sometimes
with this brooding expression...
**[10:27] ---**
I'm sure something's worrying her,
nya! You don't have any idea what?
**[10:33] ---**
Not really...
**[10:35] ---**
Why not ask her?
**[10:40] ---**
I did, but she won't tell me.
**[10:43] ---**
She's probably stressed
out from working too much.
**[10:47] ---**
Stress from work?
**[10:49] ---**
Maybe from doing too much
work that's not suited to her?
**[10:54] ---**
I've been pushing too much
of what I want to do on her!
**[11:02] ---**
Oh, nothing!
**[11:05] ---**
O-Oh...
**[11:10] ---**
Excuse me!
We're changing the set!
**[11:14] ---**
T-Today's weather feels nice, nya!
**[11:17] ---**
Yeah, it does.
**[11:20] ---**
But it looks like rain tomorrow, nya.
**[11:22] ---**
Really?
**[11:24] ---**
We'd better bring
umbrellas when we go out.
**[11:28] ---**
These sweets look good!
**[11:32] ---**
It's really good, nya!
**[11:35] ---**
Both of them are acting kind of weird.
**[11:38] ---**
I heard something was kinda on her
mind, but this sure isn't the usual her.
**[11:44] ---**
They're acting kind of awkward.
**[11:47] ---**
Yeah, they're not even fighting!
**[11:50] ---**
They seem happier when
they're squabbling with each other.
**[11:56] ---**
Normally, we'd be hearing,
"We're splitting up, nya!" right now.
**[12:00] ---**
True.
**[12:02] ---**
Maybe they really will split up.
**[12:05] ---**
R-Rika-chan! Don't say
they're gonna split up!
**[12:09] ---**
Shimamu, she was kidding.
**[12:13] ---**
O-Of course...
**[12:20] ---**
Huh. Debuting with
a regular fall concert?
**[12:23] ---**
Several units will be
making their debut then.
**[12:27] ---**
You're one of them.
**[12:31] ---**
As long as I can have
a good time on stage...
**[12:34] ---**
If I can perform at
a concert, I'll be happy.
**[12:39] ---**
With people
who are like, on fire.
**[12:43] ---**
Okay. But there's no sense talking
about it. Let's have a session.
**[12:48] ---**
Good idea.
**[12:49] ---**
Yeah.
**[12:50] ---**
All right! Let's
get a studio and...
**[12:54] ---**
That isn't necessary.
**[12:56] ---**
We'll prepare your music,
your outfits, everything.
**[13:00] ---**
All you have to do is grasp
the concept and perform to plan.
**[13:05] ---**
In other words,
we don't get to choose?
**[13:09] ---**
We can't even decide
the direction of the band?
**[13:13] ---**
I intend to assemble a first-rate staff
to handle the music and visuals.
**[13:19] ---**
I guarantee you'll be successful.
**[13:27] ---**
Good night!
**[13:31] ---**
Maekawa-san.
**[13:32] ---**
Do you have a minute?
**[13:39] ---**
On your way home?
**[13:41] ---**
Natsukichi...
**[13:43] ---**
Hey, hang out with
me if you've got time.
**[13:57] ---**
I see.
**[13:59] ---**
You don't know the cause
of Tada-san's brooding.
**[14:03] ---**
Right...
**[14:05] ---**
Shall we set aside a time for
the three of us to talk about it?
**[14:10] ---**
No. If it's really important,
I'm sure Riina-chan will tell me.
**[14:17] ---**
I have faith in her.
**[14:20] ---**
I want you to have
faith in us too, nya!
**[14:24] ---**
Understood.
**[14:30] ---**
It's beautiful!
**[14:32] ---**
Right?
**[14:33] ---**
I sometimes come when
I want to take my mind off things.
**[14:38] ---**
Take your mind off things?
Something bad happen?
**[14:42] ---**
No. No big thing...
**[14:46] ---**
Playing guitar, Dari?
**[14:48] ---**
Yeah. I play a lot lately.
**[14:51] ---**
I try what's on my CDs, but it's hard.
**[14:54] ---**
You won't suddenly be good at it.
**[14:57] ---**
I'm definitely improving!
**[15:00] ---**
One day, I'll have a cool, rockin' show
like your concert the other night.
**[15:08] ---**
Cool, huh?
**[15:11] ---**
Rock has to be cool, doesn't it?
**[15:14] ---**
Yeah, of course!
**[15:16] ---**
For some reason,
talking to you puts me at ease.
**[15:20] ---**
You should join my band.
**[15:24] ---**
Impossible? You're
already in a unit, right?
**[15:28] ---**
Asterisk, is it?
**[15:31] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[15:34] ---**
Dari?
**[15:42] ---**
Riina-chan and Natsuki-chan?
**[15:44] ---**
Yeah. I saw them earlier.
**[15:47] ---**
Da. мотоцикл...
**[15:51] ---**
Bike? She was
riding on the back...
**[16:20] ---**
All right!
**[16:22] ---**
Let's have a wild concert today, nya!
**[16:25] ---**
Y-Yeah.
**[16:28] ---**
Tada-san...
**[16:30] ---**
Is something wrong?
**[16:32] ---**
Producer...
**[16:34] ---**
Um...
**[16:36] ---**
Nothing. Never mind.
**[16:39] ---**
I want you to have
faith in us too, nya!
**[16:46] ---**
How is everybody?
**[16:48] ---**
Let's rock this house together, nya!
**[16:51] ---**
Here we go! "Over"!
**[17:41] ---**
CONGRATULATIONS
**[17:42] ---**
CLOSED FOR THE DAY
**[17:44] ---**
I'm so sorry!
**[17:46] ---**
I ruined the concert, nya!
I'm sorry, Riina-chan!
**[17:51] ---**
Oh, come on. It's okay.
It wasn't a big deal.
**[17:55] ---**
It's not. I wanted to have a good
concert, but thanks to my mistake...
**[18:00] ---**
It's fine. They enjoyed it.
You're overreacting...
**[18:04] ---**
No, I'm not!
**[18:05] ---**
Miku-chan...
**[18:07] ---**
I understand...
**[18:09] ---**
You're serious about rock.
**[18:12] ---**
You want to perform more real rock.
**[18:16] ---**
Then instead of me...
**[18:20] ---**
But... because of that, because of that,
I have to work even harder!
**[18:28] ---**
So you're not uncertain...
**[18:31] ---**
So you're glad to be in this unit.
**[18:34] ---**
I have to do my best to make it awesome!
**[18:38] ---**
You idiot!
**[18:41] ---**
Don't assume you know how I feel!
**[18:44] ---**
I chose to form
a unit with you, Miku-chan.
**[18:49] ---**
But Asterisk isn't just rock...
**[18:53] ---**
The truth is you'd rather be in
N-Natsuki-chan's new unit!
**[18:59] ---**
What do I always say?
If you think it's rock, then it is!
**[19:04] ---**
Asterisk is rock to me!
**[19:08] ---**
We're a unit,
so we both have to do our best.
**[19:13] ---**
The fact you're worried about
it shows my failure as a partner.
**[19:19] ---**
Sorry.
**[19:28] ---**
Tada-san...
**[19:30] ---**
Producer...
**[19:32] ---**
Kimura-san wanted me
to give this to you two.
**[19:36] ---**
Natsukichi? She came...
**[19:40] ---**
And she had a message.
**[19:54] ---**
Hi. You came.
**[19:56] ---**
Yeah...
**[19:59] ---**
I often performed here with
bandmates before making my debut.
**[20:04] ---**
I wanted to play so badly when I got up
here that I could've played for hours.
**[20:10] ---**
Not that we were
any good, but it was fun.
**[20:16] ---**
I wanted to sing with
you on this stage, Dari.
**[20:22] ---**
Listen, Natsukichi.
In the end, I...
**[20:25] ---**
If you think it's rock, then it is.
**[20:28] ---**
Right?
**[20:30] ---**
You heard that?
**[20:32] ---**
Your feelings resonated with me.
**[20:35] ---**
Thanks to that,
I think I can get over it.
**[20:39] ---**
So this is our breakup performance.
Dari and Natsukichi. One and done.
**[20:48] ---**
There they are!
**[20:50] ---**
They're really gonna perform!
**[20:52] ---**
Everyone?
**[20:54] ---**
Hey, everybody!
Thank you for coming!
**[20:58] ---**
Let's blow the roof off!
**[21:00] ---**
We're a one-night-only
limited unit, Sudden Rock! Thank you!
**[21:05] ---**
S-Sudden?
**[21:14] ---**
Riina-chan!
**[21:16] ---**
Go for it, nya!
**[22:08] ---**
Pulling out of the band?
**[22:09] ---**
Yeah.
**[22:11] ---**
What caused this?
**[22:13] ---**
Singing at someone else's
command isn't rock to me.
**[22:18] ---**
I can't understand how you
could throw away this chance.
**[22:22] ---**
I'm sure you know,
but don't count on another one.
**[22:27] ---**
You grab chances
yourself, don't you?
**[22:30] ---**
Besides, I was invited to join what kind
of sounds like an interesting project.
**[23:49] ---**
ROCK & CAT + BUNNYEARS

**[00:11] ---**
So these are the idols who
were selected for Project Krone.
**[00:16] ---**
Yes. Executive Director Mishiro
chose them all herself.
**[00:22] ---**
It's a large project that'll become core
to the company's image strategy, right?
**[00:30] ---**
For starters, the fall concert's where
346 Production idols perform together.
**[00:37] ---**
She's using that to debut
Project Krone as the main event.
**[00:43] ---**
So it's a fitting stage
Executive Director Mishiro has in mind.
**[00:48] ---**
However,
**[00:50] ---**
"For the first
time, the midterm results
**[00:53] ---**
of all departments will
be announced at the concert.
**[00:57] ---**
If those results are unimpressive,
**[01:01] ---**
the continued existence of that
department will be reconsidered..."
**[01:09] ---**
Those are severe circumstances.
**[01:13] ---**
Especially for you.
**[01:18] ---**
What do you mean?
**[01:21] ---**
We'll...
**[01:23] ---**
...participate in
Director Mishiro's project?
**[02:57] ---**
As I told you.
**[03:00] ---**
You'll be part of a new unit.
**[03:02] ---**
And you'll be a solo artist.
**[03:06] ---**
W-Wait a second!
This is unacceptable.
**[03:10] ---**
Our department is working
to prepare for the winter ball now.
**[03:15] ---**
And now the regular
fall concert... It's too sudden.
**[03:20] ---**
This is the company line.
**[03:22] ---**
You don't have to like it.
**[03:24] ---**
But weren't you waiting
till winter to review?
**[03:27] ---**
That's if
**[03:30] ---**
your idols here pass muster.
**[03:34] ---**
Or maybe you don't
have confidence in them?
**[03:39] ---**
This could be a good
opportunity for them.
**[03:43] ---**
But you didn't even ask!
**[03:45] ---**
I thought you'd especially like it.
**[03:50] ---**
The unit name is Triad Primus.
**[03:53] ---**
The members are
Nao Kamiya and Karen Hojo.
**[03:58] ---**
I sensed that the three of you
together have possibilities.
**[04:04] ---**
A new brilliance your
current unit doesn't have.
**[04:11] ---**
Still, they're active with their units!
**[04:15] ---**
That's right! New Generations...
**[04:18] ---**
And I have Love Laika.
**[04:21] ---**
I'm not telling you to
disband your current units.
**[04:26] ---**
I'm banking on your talent.
**[04:29] ---**
And don't you want to let it grow?
**[04:34] ---**
Please wait.
**[04:36] ---**
I just can't let this...
**[04:38] ---**
I'm not asking you.
**[04:40] ---**
I'm asking them to participate.
**[04:43] ---**
But they're with
the Cinderella Project.
**[04:46] ---**
Respecting an idol's independence.
**[04:50] ---**
Isn't that what you were about?
**[04:59] ---**
So what are you going to do?
**[05:03] ---**
Right now, both
of them are confused.
**[05:07] ---**
I think we should keep quiet till they
have a better sense of what they want.
**[05:13] ---**
We've got the fall review too,
so it's better to avoid conflicts.
**[05:19] ---**
You didn't put your foot down?
**[05:22] ---**
I thought that for them,
it's not really a bad deal...
**[05:29] ---**
It's complicated.
**[05:31] ---**
You're the one who found those Cinderellas.
**[05:38] ---**
For you too,
this is a deciding moment.
**[05:43] ---**
A review to decide our future...
**[05:46] ---**
I thought we had until winter.
**[05:49] ---**
Depending on the current results,
the winter ball may be canceled.
**[05:56] ---**
So based on results,
our department could be closed?
**[06:00] ---**
Oh no!
**[06:01] ---**
Can't we do something?
**[06:06] ---**
All we can do is our best.
**[06:09] ---**
No matter what, we have to do our best!
**[06:11] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:13] ---**
Right now, everyone's
work is starting to go well, right?
**[06:17] ---**
Yes.
**[06:19] ---**
I don't want to give up here.
**[06:21] ---**
Let's aim for celestial radiance anew!
**[06:24] ---**
I'll do my best!
**[06:26] ---**
Me too!
**[06:27] ---**
Yeah! It'll work if we hang on, nya!
**[06:30] ---**
Yeah.
**[06:31] ---**
We can't let this beat us.
**[06:34] ---**
After all, we still have
lots we want New Gen to do!
**[06:38] ---**
Mio-chan...
**[06:40] ---**
You're right!
I'll give it my all!
**[06:47] ---**
What's wrong, Anya-chan?
**[06:51] ---**
Nothing.
**[07:38] ---**
Извините! I'm sorry!
**[07:40] ---**
No, it's my fault.
**[07:44] ---**
Here.
**[07:47] ---**
Thank you.
**[07:51] ---**
You're...
**[07:52] ---**
Hey, Fumika!
**[07:55] ---**
What's wrong?
**[07:57] ---**
Yui-san, this is...
**[07:58] ---**
Love Laika's Anastasia-chan?
**[08:01] ---**
D-Da...
**[08:03] ---**
I'm Yui Otsuki. And this is...
**[08:07] ---**
Fumika Sagisawa.
**[08:10] ---**
I'm looking forward
to working with you.
**[08:16] ---**
Weren't you chosen for
Project Krone, Anastasia-chan?
**[08:23] ---**
You haven't decided? Why not?
**[08:26] ---**
It was so sudden...
**[08:29] ---**
Do it with us! The outfits
are set and look cool!
**[08:33] ---**
There's nothing to doubt!
**[08:35] ---**
Don't you think so, Fumika?
**[08:38] ---**
But I think I know
how Anastasia-san feels too.
**[08:44] ---**
I wasn't interested in being
an idol till I was scouted...
**[08:50] ---**
Really?
**[08:52] ---**
Yes. Even then, I thought it over
a long time before deciding to do it.
**[08:59] ---**
But after you did,
it was fun, right?
**[09:02] ---**
Yes. I'm still a beginner, so there are
times when I don't know what to do,
**[09:10] ---**
but it's also exciting, like turning the
page of a book you haven't read yet.
**[09:18] ---**
So with this project too,
I figured if I tried it,
**[09:24] ---**
it might be like
turning to a new page.
**[09:44] ---**
Sorry to suddenly grab you.
But I wanted to talk.
**[09:49] ---**
Yeah, I know.
**[09:51] ---**
About Triad Primus, right?
**[09:55] ---**
I gave it a lot of thought,
but I can't be part of it.
**[09:59] ---**
I'm sorry.
**[10:01] ---**
I'm not surprised.
**[10:04] ---**
After all, you have New Gen.
**[10:10] ---**
But we don't want to blow this chance.
**[10:13] ---**
Hey, Karen!
**[10:14] ---**
Of course we want
to debut, but I
**[10:19] ---**
also want to sing
with you and Nao, Rin.
**[10:24] ---**
It felt great when we
were together the other day.
**[10:28] ---**
I'm sure the three of us
could do something great.
**[10:32] ---**
That's what I thought then.
**[10:35] ---**
What do you think
about that day?
**[10:38] ---**
It was...
**[10:44] ---**
Come to the lesson
room tomorrow at five.
**[10:47] ---**
Let's try singing
together one more time.
**[10:51] ---**
I'm sure you'll understand then.
**[10:56] ---**
Do you think Rin will come?
**[10:59] ---**
Can't be helped if she doesn't.
**[11:01] ---**
Come on...
**[11:03] ---**
I get that it's not an easy decision
to make from her viewpoint.
**[11:08] ---**
Well, that's true...
**[11:10] ---**
But still...
**[11:13] ---**
Even so, I want
to take the chance.
**[11:17] ---**
On the three of us singing
together, you, me, and Rin.
**[11:22] ---**
Because I believe that certain
something we felt was the real thing.
**[11:27] ---**
Karen...
**[11:32] ---**
Since you put it that way,
I'll bet on it too!
**[11:36] ---**
On the three of us
forming Triad Primus!
**[11:43] ---**
We have cute guests
with us today.
**[11:50] ---**
What are you watching?
**[11:52] ---**
Miho-chan's miniconcert
on DVD, nya.
**[11:55] ---**
A staff member taped it,
so we're watching it together.
**[12:01] ---**
Okay!
**[12:03] ---**
Cute!
**[12:05] ---**
Nice smiles.
**[12:07] ---**
They learned that
from doing interviews.
**[12:11] ---**
It's important to challenge yourself.
**[12:13] ---**
And speaking of that, Ranko-chan...
**[12:16] ---**
T-This?
**[12:18] ---**
Right, the Halloween
event promo video.
**[12:22] ---**
Though you're
no good with scary stuff...
**[12:25] ---**
C-Conquering that
is still a steep mountain.
**[12:29] ---**
You do not run from
your weakness. Very admirable.
**[12:33] ---**
Not at all.
**[12:35] ---**
It's because challenging myself is fun.
**[12:48] ---**
Challenge...
**[12:51] ---**
New... page...
**[13:13] ---**
MINAMI NITTA
**[13:33] ---**
You came, Rin.
**[13:37] ---**
Is that the, um...
**[13:39] ---**
Yeah, Triad Primus's debut song!
**[13:44] ---**
What may become that song.
**[13:48] ---**
"Trancing Pulse"...
**[13:53] ---**
Nao and I will sing it first,
so just listen at first.
**[13:57] ---**
Okay.
**[14:02] ---**
Brightly colored ripples
are blown by the wind
**[14:10] ---**
Into the bright, glistening sky
**[14:32] ---**
The light from the setting sun
shines on the keyboard
**[14:39] ---**
Fingers gently touch it, expressing
that day's feelings with melody
**[14:45] ---**
Staring at a nobly blooming flower,
our forms overlapping
**[14:52] ---**
The chords I'm playing
reverberating, resounding in silence
**[15:01] ---**
Brightly colored ripples
are blown by the wind
**[15:07] ---**
Into the bright, glistening sky
**[15:24] ---**
Producer...
**[15:26] ---**
Um... Can I talk to you?
**[15:31] ---**
Of course.
**[15:35] ---**
About Project Krone, I take it?
**[15:37] ---**
Yes.
**[15:39] ---**
Well? If you
don't wish to do it...
**[15:42] ---**
Nyet. That's not it...
**[15:48] ---**
Minami said something at our camp.
**[15:53] ---**
She said being an idol was an adventure
for her, but she also felt anxiety.
**[16:01] ---**
We overcame anxiety, and what we were
able to see was something very exciting.
**[16:07] ---**
I'm glad I went on this adventure
and dared to take that first step.
**[16:13] ---**
That's what Nitta-san said?
**[16:16] ---**
Minami taught me about courage and
the excitement of being on an adventure.
**[16:23] ---**
Right now I am anxious.
**[16:27] ---**
Director Mishiro's project...
**[16:30] ---**
Working as a solo artist
among people I do not know...
**[16:34] ---**
But everyone is
challenging themselves now.
**[16:39] ---**
They are on an exciting,
brilliant adventure.
**[16:50] ---**
Anastasia-san.
**[16:52] ---**
Do you think you can participate
in that project with a smile?
**[17:01] ---**
I do not know... yet... if I will be
able to smile like the others.
**[17:08] ---**
You won't know unless you go down that path.
**[17:12] ---**
The question is do you want to?
**[17:14] ---**
No matter what kind of path
it is, if you feel it's possible
**[17:20] ---**
to get to the other side with a smile,
**[17:23] ---**
then you should go forward,
**[17:26] ---**
in my opinion.
**[17:29] ---**
And if you think you can find
one step beyond that smile,
**[17:36] ---**
UNDER THIS SKY
**[17:43] ---**
I will do everything in
my power to support that path.
**[17:52] ---**
I see.
**[17:54] ---**
You haven't been yourself
for a few days, so I've been worried.
**[17:58] ---**
But if you were that troubled by it,
you should've talked to me.
**[18:04] ---**
Actually, I wanted
to talk to you about it.
**[18:10] ---**
But part of me felt like I should not.
**[18:14] ---**
Up to now, I have not
made one decision by myself.
**[18:19] ---**
If I am going to change,
I should start with that.
**[18:24] ---**
That is what I thought.
**[18:28] ---**
Oh...
**[18:29] ---**
Are you angry that I decided
without consulting you?
**[18:35] ---**
No. It's just I'm surprised
because it's so sudden.
**[18:45] ---**
Stars...
**[18:53] ---**
We can't really see
them well from here.
**[18:57] ---**
True. But we just
cannot see them now.
**[19:03] ---**
Yeah. You're right.
**[19:19] ---**
All of these?
**[19:20] ---**
I borrowed them for special training.
**[19:24] ---**
I thought maybe there's a secret
way for New Gen to power up.
**[19:30] ---**
I didn't think of something like this.
**[19:34] ---**
I may be bad at
thinking of new things.
**[19:38] ---**
You're great!
**[19:39] ---**
I'm just the type that's always
moving, even with no direction.
**[19:44] ---**
That's still impressive!
**[19:48] ---**
Morning, Rin-chan!
**[19:50] ---**
Morning. Um...
**[19:51] ---**
You're late!
**[19:53] ---**
We'll train hard for the fall concert.
**[19:56] ---**
B-By the way...
**[19:58] ---**
Can I... have a minute?
**[20:01] ---**
There's something I
want to tell you two.
**[20:08] ---**
Project...
**[20:10] ---**
Krone...
**[20:12] ---**
What do you mean...
you're not sure?
**[20:16] ---**
There's no reason to hesitate.
**[20:19] ---**
Now's the time to work
together and fight, right?
**[20:23] ---**
I intended to turn it down at first.
**[20:27] ---**
But I felt something.
**[20:30] ---**
When I sang with Nao and Karen,
I felt something new.
**[20:35] ---**
Something new?
**[20:38] ---**
I don't know what it is.
**[20:40] ---**
I don't know,
**[20:43] ---**
so I want to find out.
**[20:49] ---**
Hold on...
**[20:50] ---**
Then what about New Gen?
**[20:54] ---**
I won't quit. Somehow I'll do both.
**[20:56] ---**
It's not so simple.
**[20:58] ---**
I know I'm being selfish!
**[21:00] ---**
I mean, I don't like it.
**[21:06] ---**
I'm sorry. I just don't get it.
**[21:10] ---**
I made it this far because
it's been the three of us.
**[21:14] ---**
I thought we could overcome anything.
**[21:18] ---**
Challenge ourselves with anything...
**[21:22] ---**
Shiburin... That "something new,"
**[21:26] ---**
you can't do it with New Gen?
**[21:29] ---**
You can't do it with us?
**[21:33] ---**
I don't know.
**[21:36] ---**
I don't know...
**[21:46] ---**
What do you think, Shimamu?
**[21:51] ---**
U-Um, I...
**[21:54] ---**
I...
**[21:56] ---**
I...
**[21:59] ---**
I-I don't know.
**[22:04] ---**
I... don't know.
**[22:09] ---**
Sorry. I'm going out for a while.
**[22:14] ---**
Mio!
**[22:16] ---**
Wait, Mio!
**[22:19] ---**
Honda-san, what's wrong?
**[22:23] ---**
Honda-san!
**[22:24] ---**
Please wait! Honda-san!
**[23:16] ---**
Director Mishiro's
producing your solo debut?
**[23:19] ---**
What does this mean?
**[23:21] ---**
You're okay with that, Minami-chan?
**[23:24] ---**
Yes.
**[23:25] ---**
I think she should go for it.
**[23:32] ---**
I'm sure you're surprised
by this sudden news,
**[23:36] ---**
but I have one more
important announcement.
**[23:39] ---**
From today...
**[23:40] ---**
Wait a second!
**[23:42] ---**
I'll say it myself.
**[23:50] ---**
From today, I, Mio Honda,
will be a solo artist.
**[23:55] ---**
Thanks for your support!

**[00:04] ---**
This is a strange mansion surrounded by
empty wilderness!
**[00:08] ---**
Just a terrible place!
**[00:11] ---**
In my country, we had servants for
everything, including changing clothes.
**[00:17] ---**
They would do whatever I said.
**[00:20] ---**
From today, I, Mio Honda,
will be a solo artist.
**[00:28] ---**
S-Solo artist...
**[00:30] ---**
Are you part of Director
Mishiro's project too?
**[00:40] ---**
This is what Honda-san
strongly wished.
**[00:44] ---**
It was my decision.
**[00:46] ---**
That's where things stand,
so let's do our best, Anyan.
**[00:51] ---**
Da...
**[00:52] ---**
Of course I'll still
be part of New Gen.
**[00:59] ---**
Did you two know?
**[01:01] ---**
N-No...
**[01:04] ---**
It's my fault, isn't it?
**[01:09] ---**
Because I said Executive
Director Mishiro invited me...
**[01:13] ---**
- Rin-chan too...
- Then what about the fall concert?
**[01:40] ---**
Everyone, adjustments are being made
to the fall concert, so please stand by.
**[03:24] ---**
Do those things yourself.
**[03:26] ---**
Besides, you're wrong
about there being nothing here.
**[03:31] ---**
There are plenty of treasures outside.
**[03:34] ---**
You just can't see them.
**[03:38] ---**
I can't see them?
**[03:41] ---**
Honda...
**[03:42] ---**
S-Sorry...
**[03:53] ---**
Sorry.
**[03:55] ---**
Forget it. Swap roles and start over.
**[03:59] ---**
Right!
**[04:00] ---**
Honda! Can you do it script-free?
**[04:02] ---**
Yes! Thanks for the chance!
**[04:09] ---**
G-Good morning.
**[04:12] ---**
Morning...
**[04:23] ---**
Look, about Mio...
What do you think, Uzuki?
**[04:28] ---**
I-I...
**[04:32] ---**
Mio-chan...
**[04:34] ---**
Morning!
**[04:39] ---**
No New Gen activities today, right?
**[04:41] ---**
Right...
**[04:43] ---**
Well, I'm off to drama practice!
**[04:46] ---**
Mio, wait!
**[04:50] ---**
Why not do what
you want too, Shiburin?
**[04:53] ---**
See you!
**[05:06] ---**
I want a little more time.
**[05:09] ---**
I see...
**[05:13] ---**
This is our fault, isn't it?
**[05:16] ---**
We're causing problems, right?
**[05:18] ---**
No. It's me...
**[05:19] ---**
Even so,
**[05:21] ---**
we want you to think about it.
**[05:23] ---**
All we can do is wait.
**[05:30] ---**
Can we all rehearse
something together?
**[05:33] ---**
We're doing a catalog shoot
for Pika Pika Pop this weekend.
**[05:38] ---**
That's okay. We can wait.
**[05:41] ---**
Right?
**[05:43] ---**
Of course, nya!
**[05:44] ---**
The fall concert's almost here, so we
should get together as much as we can...
**[05:51] ---**
We were just discussing
fall concert group rehearsals.
**[05:56] ---**
Yeah! We should practice all we can
as a group, nya!
**[06:00] ---**
Right, Rin-chan?
**[06:01] ---**
Let's do our best!
**[06:02] ---**
Let's all do our best!
**[06:08] ---**
Yeah, let's work hard. Love Laika can
join in that day too of course, right?
**[06:14] ---**
Yeah. I have a solo lesson but
should be able to join after that.
**[06:21] ---**
Solo?
**[06:23] ---**
What do you mean?
**[06:25] ---**
What about Love Laika?
**[06:31] ---**
You'll quit Love Laika?
**[06:33] ---**
No, nothing like that...
**[06:36] ---**
Everyone.
**[06:40] ---**
Both Love Laika members received offers.
**[06:43] ---**
She is preparing for a solo debut too.
**[06:49] ---**
Anastasia-san will be with
Project Krone in the fall concert,
**[06:53] ---**
while Nitta-san will perform
solo for the Cinderella Project.
**[06:59] ---**
Really?
**[07:03] ---**
I'll do my best.
**[07:06] ---**
Then what about the group song?
**[07:10] ---**
We'll have to do it without her.
**[07:13] ---**
But we'll have to rechoreograph...
**[07:16] ---**
Then we will!
**[07:17] ---**
But...
**[07:19] ---**
Rin-chan, can you guys take part?
**[07:25] ---**
New Generations is
getting some adjustments.
**[07:29] ---**
Adjustments...
**[07:32] ---**
I'm sorry, everyone.
**[07:34] ---**
I-It's not your fault, Rin-chan.
**[07:40] ---**
I apologize for not saying anything.
**[07:44] ---**
I see you're all upset by the news.
**[07:48] ---**
You were being considerate
of us by not saying, weren't you?
**[07:56] ---**
I feel frustrated.
**[07:58] ---**
This must've been weighing
on Shiburin, right?
**[08:02] ---**
I didn't notice at all.
**[08:06] ---**
I never even thought of
another way besides New Gen.
**[08:10] ---**
No. More like I didn't
want to think of another way.
**[08:15] ---**
I had a great time at the summer fest
when the three of us had a concert.
**[08:22] ---**
We were all smiles. We shined.
**[08:26] ---**
The three of us finally stood
on the starting box then.
**[08:31] ---**
That's why, as the leader,
I wanted us to move forward together.
**[08:38] ---**
I thought that this time for sure,
I would really lead New Gen.
**[08:46] ---**
So I wanted the three of us to shine
even more from here on. If we didn't...
**[08:55] ---**
But...
**[08:56] ---**
You're talking about Triad, right?
**[09:00] ---**
What is it? I guess
I can't do anything after all.
**[09:06] ---**
- I'm all drive. That's why Shiburin...
- That's not the case.
**[09:13] ---**
I don't think you've
made any mistakes with the unit.
**[09:17] ---**
I chose you. You're the
leader of New Generations.
**[09:24] ---**
I think all three of you
still have various possibilities.
**[09:32] ---**
But the issue with Shibuya-san...
**[09:35] ---**
I suppose that involves something else.
**[09:38] ---**
Yes...
**[09:42] ---**
Something else...
**[09:44] ---**
What is it?
**[09:47] ---**
I don't know.
**[09:49] ---**
But
**[09:54] ---**
it may be that if she
doesn't try seeing things
**[09:59] ---**
from a different position, she can't be sure.
**[10:03] ---**
Maybe she's unsure,
so she wants to confirm things.
**[10:15] ---**
Producer...
**[10:17] ---**
I have to see too.
**[10:20] ---**
I don't get what it is,
**[10:23] ---**
but I want to give
Shiburin an answer.
**[10:27] ---**
I feel like if I don't,
we won't be able to progress.
**[10:31] ---**
So we'll find an answer this way.
**[10:37] ---**
Hi. I heard the news.
**[10:40] ---**
It seems you've decided about Love Laika.
**[10:43] ---**
Yes. But please give me some
more time with New Generations.
**[10:58] ---**
You're an awkward fellow too.
**[11:02] ---**
I should never have said that.
**[11:06] ---**
Rin-chan...
**[11:08] ---**
If I hadn't mentioned
Executive Director Mishiro's plan...
**[11:13] ---**
If New Gen breaks up, I...
**[11:20] ---**
Let's talk to Mio-chan!
**[11:22] ---**
It isn't good to brood about it alone.
**[11:25] ---**
Let's talk till we're
on the same page!
**[11:28] ---**
It's okay. It'll be okay!
**[11:31] ---**
The three of us have
worked so hard together!
**[11:35] ---**
Uzuki...
**[11:38] ---**
Okay.
**[11:40] ---**
Thanks, Uzuki.
**[11:43] ---**
The robin told me
this was the secret garden.
**[11:47] ---**
But is it well? Everything is dead.
**[11:51] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[11:53] ---**
Look at the lush buds on that tree.
**[11:59] ---**
This is alive?
Then what about those roses?
**[12:03] ---**
They're brimming with
health and vitality, like us.
**[12:09] ---**
The flowers... This garden... is alive!
**[12:16] ---**
Okay!
**[12:24] ---**
Honda, what's wrong?
**[12:26] ---**
Nothing...
**[12:28] ---**
Thank you!
**[12:45] ---**
SHIBURIN
CAN I SEE YOU TOMORROW?
**[12:50] ---**
I'm anxious about the fall concert,
and Minami-chan, and Mio-chan's group.
**[12:58] ---**
I thought we'd all work
hard to get past the fall concert,
**[13:03] ---**
but we're out of
step with each other...
**[13:06] ---**
Miku-chan...
**[13:08] ---**
I'm anxious too,
but we have to soldier on!
**[13:12] ---**
But...
**[13:13] ---**
Riina-chan, easy...
**[13:15] ---**
- After all, at this rate...
- Excuse me...
**[13:18] ---**
Their journey,
**[13:22] ---**
um...
**[13:26] ---**
I think it's a good thing.
**[13:30] ---**
What Minami-san and the others decided...
**[13:33] ---**
It's not like I don't
want to cheer them on...
**[13:37] ---**
It's just our
division's in a pinch now!
**[13:41] ---**
- If we fail, it'll be dissolved.
- I don't want that!
**[13:46] ---**
I think it's... an adventure.
**[13:51] ---**
I sang with Anya-san
at the summer fest.
**[13:57] ---**
At first, I thought I had
to act as Minami-san's substitute.
**[14:04] ---**
But I realized then that when
you perform with someone,
**[14:12] ---**
it's not just about playing a role.
**[14:16] ---**
It's also about trying
something new...
**[14:19] ---**
Having a lot of fun...
Enjoying everyone's support...
**[14:24] ---**
Even now, I remember
how exciting that was.
**[14:29] ---**
How dear to me...
**[14:40] ---**
I wonder how Minami-san
and the others feel.
**[14:44] ---**
U-Um...
At this rate, we'll be nervous...
**[14:49] ---**
Yeah. So we can't deliver happiness
to the audience when we're performing...
**[14:55] ---**
Well, you're both right.
**[14:58] ---**
Instead of moping about it,
we'd save time by talking it over.
**[15:04] ---**
Shall we call them over?
**[15:06] ---**
This affects us all,
so let's think about it together!
**[15:11] ---**
Right?
**[15:13] ---**
Right!
**[15:16] ---**
I owe them all an apology.
**[15:19] ---**
Mio said they could
work it out themselves.
**[15:23] ---**
The other girls too.
**[15:27] ---**
All we can do
is watch over them now.
**[15:33] ---**
We want to talk to you.
**[15:36] ---**
Yeah, me too.
**[15:40] ---**
Here.
**[15:43] ---**
What is this?
**[15:45] ---**
Would you help me rehearse?
**[15:48] ---**
Don't dodge the issue!
**[15:50] ---**
I'm not.
**[16:01] ---**
I'm done with
a selfish person like you!
**[16:08] ---**
That's the line!
Page 45 in the script!
**[16:12] ---**
Um...
**[16:13] ---**
You start, Shimamu.
**[16:15] ---**
Okay!
**[16:17] ---**
Young master, calm down.
**[16:22] ---**
I don't have much longer.
**[16:24] ---**
I can't even get out of this
bed anymore. Before spring comes...
**[16:30] ---**
Oh, poor young master...
**[16:33] ---**
Fool! You aren't weak at all.
**[16:37] ---**
Half your disease
is in your mind!
**[16:40] ---**
You've cursed yourself!
**[16:43] ---**
Oh dear! Mary-san!
What are you saying?
**[16:46] ---**
I wonder if Minami-san is almost done...
**[16:50] ---**
That's it today.
**[16:52] ---**
Stretch a little to cool down.
**[16:54] ---**
No, a bit more. Let me try again.
**[16:58] ---**
It's vital to let your body rest too.
**[17:00] ---**
I know. So just a little more...
**[17:04] ---**
Unlike you,
I have a weak constitution...
**[17:08] ---**
Can I really go outside?
**[17:10] ---**
My body was weak
too when I first came here.
**[17:14] ---**
And I hated to go outside.
**[17:21] ---**
But
**[17:26] ---**
Martha and Dickon showed me that
the world outside is full of treasures.
**[17:33] ---**
That's right. The sky is so high.
**[17:37] ---**
The gorse, heath,
and roses are budding.
**[17:42] ---**
Fill your lungs with this fresh air!
**[17:47] ---**
Maybe I can...
fill my lungs with it too.
**[17:51] ---**
Shouldn't we call out to her?
**[17:53] ---**
Wait a bit.
**[17:55] ---**
- Sis!
- Mika-chan!
**[17:57] ---**
Now that's enough for today.
**[18:00] ---**
No. I'll do it.
**[18:02] ---**
It's fun.
**[18:04] ---**
This is an adventure for me.
**[18:07] ---**
Adventure?
**[18:08] ---**
Right, an adventure to me.
**[18:12] ---**
I wanted to see
what you were seeing.
**[18:15] ---**
The robin is calling
from that garden.
**[18:19] ---**
Anya-chan's doing
her best at a new place.
**[18:23] ---**
So I want to challenge myself
with something new too.
**[18:28] ---**
Minami-chan is shining...
**[18:32] ---**
Because she's on an adventure.
**[18:36] ---**
Anya-chan and I will both work hard
and make the fall concert a success.
**[18:41] ---**
That's my adventure.
**[18:46] ---**
It's so beautiful...
**[18:48] ---**
I wish I had come here sooner.
**[18:52] ---**
Yeah. Sorry I kept you waiting.
**[18:55] ---**
Where is that?
**[18:58] ---**
That's okay.
You can come here from now on.
**[19:02] ---**
Let's come back
tomorrow and the day after!
**[19:06] ---**
That's right. Summer follows spring.
Then comes fall and winter.
**[19:12] ---**
On and on, forever...
**[19:15] ---**
If we step forward without fear,
the garden will be waiting for us.
**[19:22] ---**
The garden shines with life...
**[19:26] ---**
The garden is a magic place...
**[19:29] ---**
The garden is our heart.
**[19:38] ---**
We'll beat this, nya!
**[19:40] ---**
Everyone!
**[19:41] ---**
- We want to do our best...
- ...to shine too!
**[19:45] ---**
On a new adventure!
**[19:46] ---**
Yeah!
**[19:48] ---**
That was so beautiful!
**[19:50] ---**
You were shining!
**[19:52] ---**
You can all shine too.
**[19:56] ---**
- Yeah!
- Do you think you'll find something?
**[20:01] ---**
I wanted to know
how you felt, Shiburin.
**[20:05] ---**
I wanted to answer you.
**[20:08] ---**
And little by little, I came to understand.
**[20:11] ---**
Mio...
**[20:13] ---**
Thank you.
**[20:21] ---**
Mio-chan was great, wasn't she?
**[20:24] ---**
Yeah. That was exciting.
**[20:37] ---**
Listen, Uzuki.
**[20:40] ---**
I think it's a good idea.
**[20:42] ---**
Uzuki...
**[20:43] ---**
Mio-chan was so
brilliant that she shone.
**[20:47] ---**
So I'm sure you would too!
**[20:52] ---**
Thanks, Uzuki.
**[20:55] ---**
I'll do my best too!
**[21:06] ---**
The fall concert is almost here.
**[21:10] ---**
This time, Asterisk and Rosenburg Engel
will participate with a new order.
**[21:20] ---**
Shibuya-san will start
with the Triad Primus unit.
**[21:25] ---**
And Love Laika and New Generations
will not take part in the concert.
**[21:37] ---**
Next jobs I want to do?
**[21:40] ---**
I've been on stage, made my
CD debut, even performed on radio.
**[21:45] ---**
Um, I've been on TV too... I want
the three of us to keep doing our best.
**[21:52] ---**
What about trying
something on your own?
**[21:55] ---**
Me?
**[21:59] ---**
It's just a proposal, but how about
forming a unit with Miho Kohinata-san?
**[22:06] ---**
This plan won't be in time for the fall
concert, but I think you'd learn a lot.
**[22:14] ---**
If you also challenged
yourself with something new,
**[22:18] ---**
I think New Generations would...
**[22:19] ---**
I'll try it!
**[22:23] ---**
Um... uh...
**[22:26] ---**
Rin-chan has a beautiful voice.
**[22:31] ---**
Mio-chan is a great actress.
**[22:34] ---**
What am I, um,
**[22:37] ---**
good at?
**[22:42] ---**
Smiling.
**[22:44] ---**
Smiling...
**[22:49] ---**
Yes.
**[22:52] ---**
You're right. And I'll do my best!
**[22:57] ---**
As we look towards the ball,
we each have our assignments
**[23:02] ---**
and right now,
various challenges for ourselves.
**[23:06] ---**
Let's all support each other
and ascend a new stair.
**[23:13] ---**
Yeah!

**[00:46] ---**
Anya-chan...
**[00:50] ---**
Impressive.
**[00:52] ---**
Naturally. After all, they're a
perfect fit for 346, and I chose them.
**[01:07] ---**
Красивая.
**[02:41] ---**
Thank you so much! We hope...
**[02:45] ---**
...you enjoy the rest of the show!
**[02:48] ---**
Anya-chan, that was wonderful!
**[02:51] ---**
Minami!
**[02:52] ---**
Now it's my turn to do
my best! Watch me!
**[02:57] ---**
I will!
**[02:58] ---**
We're up after your senpais.
**[03:03] ---**
A lot of people are looking
forward to your performance.
**[03:09] ---**
And this performance will decide
whether we get to do the winter ball.
**[03:16] ---**
Please forget about that for now.
**[03:19] ---**
I want you to smile
**[03:22] ---**
and enjoy yourselves with the audience.
**[03:26] ---**
Right!
**[03:27] ---**
Asterisk with Natsunana!
**[03:31] ---**
Shall we make our debut?
**[03:33] ---**
Yeah!
**[03:34] ---**
- I'm so happy!
- My heart's racing!
**[03:36] ---**
Let's all be happy-happy!
**[03:39] ---**
Let's deliver happiness...
**[03:41] ---**
...to the audience!
**[03:43] ---**
Yeah!
**[03:44] ---**
It's an adventure.
**[03:47] ---**
We have to follow
Anya-chan's lead.
**[03:50] ---**
- Yes!
- Yeah!
**[03:52] ---**
I'm behind you all the way!
**[03:54] ---**
Right! I'll do my best!
**[03:59] ---**
Kanzaki-san and
Shirasaka-san will start.
**[04:03] ---**
Thank you.
**[04:05] ---**
I hope it becomes a lovely nightmare.
**[04:09] ---**
Nightmare...
**[04:10] ---**
Kanzaki-san. Please,
**[04:16] ---**
let your soul shine.
**[04:21] ---**
Then I shall become an
inviting guide for my compatriots.
**[04:27] ---**
Cinderella Project, fight!
**[04:31] ---**
Yeah!
**[04:37] ---**
Shimamura-san, Honda-san...
**[04:41] ---**
You're taking a back seat
this time, but thank you.
**[04:45] ---**
It's okay! Leave it to us!
**[04:47] ---**
Right!
**[04:49] ---**
I'm fired up, Shimamu!
**[04:53] ---**
We're here at last.
**[04:55] ---**
Yeah.
**[04:57] ---**
Our debut. And on a huge stage.
**[05:02] ---**
Yeah.
**[05:03] ---**
Though it's already
begun, it hasn't hit me yet.
**[05:07] ---**
Me neither.
But Rin is calm, as expected.
**[05:14] ---**
Looks good on you, natch!
**[05:17] ---**
Mio...
**[05:22] ---**
Listen...
**[05:22] ---**
Wait. Let me say something first.
**[05:26] ---**
Sure.
**[05:27] ---**
I had a great time doing that play.
**[05:31] ---**
It's like I found a new
possibility within me.
**[05:37] ---**
To be honest, I wanted
to perform here today as New Gen.
**[05:44] ---**
But I have a feeling it's better
that it worked out this way.
**[05:50] ---**
I love New Generations.
**[05:55] ---**
That's exactly why we
should do separate projects now.
**[05:59] ---**
Mio...
**[06:01] ---**
You won't know unless you try.
**[06:04] ---**
Let's do our best to focus
on those things now.
**[06:07] ---**
And that'll lead us to the next step.
**[06:12] ---**
Yeah. The winter ball, right?
**[06:15] ---**
That's right! Stay tuned for
the improved Mio-chan's performance!
**[06:21] ---**
Or something.
**[06:22] ---**
Then I'd better succeed
with today's performance.
**[06:26] ---**
Okay! You have our full support!
**[06:32] ---**
Say, isn't Uzuki with you?
**[06:36] ---**
Actually...
**[06:38] ---**
I'll put it right here.
**[06:39] ---**
Thank you.
**[06:41] ---**
Do your best!
**[06:43] ---**
Thank you. We will.
**[06:48] ---**
Shimamu! There you are!
**[06:54] ---**
I didn't come for any reason.
Sorry if I interrupted.
**[06:58] ---**
N-Not at all. It's okay.
I've been running around all day...
**[07:04] ---**
You're more fired up
than anyone today.
**[07:07] ---**
Rin.
**[07:09] ---**
There you are.
**[07:14] ---**
Sorry.
**[07:15] ---**
I just wanted to see you. Later!
**[07:19] ---**
Rin-chan!
**[07:21] ---**
Yes?
**[07:24] ---**
Do your best out there!
I'll do my best too!
**[07:28] ---**
I will. Thanks.
**[07:30] ---**
Fight!
**[07:40] ---**
Shimamu?
**[07:42] ---**
What's wrong? Feel down?
**[07:45] ---**
I don't know what it is.
Maybe I'm nervous.
**[07:49] ---**
Relax! Relax!
**[07:51] ---**
Right.
**[07:52] ---**
However, onlookers, you can't judge
this flower that blooms in the abyss!
**[07:58] ---**
- Judge me! Punish me! My forgiver.
- Know me. Whisper to me. He who smiles.
**[08:03] ---**
Yes, only him.
**[08:08] ---**
It's almost time, Arisu-chan.
**[08:11] ---**
P-Please call me by my surname!
**[08:15] ---**
You too, Sagisawa-san.
**[08:17] ---**
Sagisawa-san?
**[08:21] ---**
Right...
**[08:24] ---**
Do you know Venus?
Do you know Venus?
**[08:27] ---**
Breaking out of a glass cage
**[08:31] ---**
VENUS SYNDROME
Breaking out of a glass cage
**[08:35] ---**
Let me love like that
**[08:47] ---**
Not bad. Each unit's
individuality stands out, huh?
**[08:53] ---**
The merit to each comes out well.
**[08:56] ---**
I wonder if this is the
Cinderella Project's "power of smile."
**[09:02] ---**
I see. As raw material,
it seems they have a certain strength.
**[09:08] ---**
But that makes them all the more suited
to produce in the conventional way.
**[09:14] ---**
Don't you agree?
**[09:18] ---**
You're stubborn too...
**[09:25] ---**
Excuse me! Sagisawa-san, Tachibana-san,
please get ready for the second half!
**[09:31] ---**
R-Right!
**[09:33] ---**
Okay...
**[09:43] ---**
Sagisawa-san...
**[09:48] ---**
Sagisawa-san!
**[09:52] ---**
- Shibu...
- Stop a sec!
**[09:54] ---**
Yes, ASAP!
**[09:57] ---**
Don't move...
**[10:09] ---**
Are you okay?
**[10:10] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[10:12] ---**
Fumika-chan...
**[10:14] ---**
Should we tell Director Mishiro?
**[10:16] ---**
But where is she?
**[10:19] ---**
Should I look for her around there?
**[10:21] ---**
I guess...
**[10:22] ---**
What should we do?
**[10:24] ---**
I don't know.
**[10:26] ---**
We can't make that call.
**[10:28] ---**
Maybe, but we
can't go on like this...
**[10:33] ---**
- Excuse me.
- This way!
**[10:35] ---**
Producer...
**[10:36] ---**
I understand the situation.
We'll change the lineup.
**[10:40] ---**
Can Triad Primus go on
earlier than scheduled?
**[10:47] ---**
Y-Yeah!
**[10:49] ---**
Sure...
**[10:52] ---**
We can.
**[10:55] ---**
Can we make that switch?
**[10:57] ---**
Give us a little time.
**[10:59] ---**
I'll relay it to everyone.
**[11:01] ---**
Please.
**[11:02] ---**
Right!
**[11:05] ---**
Producer! Is there
anything I can do?
**[11:11] ---**
Thanks to cute me, the audience
got into today's performance too.
**[11:16] ---**
Yeah.
**[11:17] ---**
Shimamu!
**[11:19] ---**
Come with me!
**[11:26] ---**
Why isn't it starting?
**[11:28] ---**
That's strange...
**[11:30] ---**
Maybe there's been trouble, nya...
**[11:31] ---**
Everyone!
**[11:33] ---**
I need help!
**[11:38] ---**
What do you mean they switched?
**[11:40] ---**
I apologize.
**[11:42] ---**
We handled it quickly
to prevent confusion.
**[11:46] ---**
Hi, everyone!
**[11:49] ---**
Are you having fun so far, nya?
**[11:53] ---**
Yeah!
**[11:55] ---**
What? That's all
the gusto you can muster?
**[11:59] ---**
Then let's give them
an energy infusion!
**[12:02] ---**
Hey, Natsukichi!
**[12:03] ---**
Okay!
**[12:05] ---**
Energy...
**[12:06] ---**
...infusion!
**[12:14] ---**
How was that, everyone?
**[12:16] ---**
Were you energized?
**[12:21] ---**
What do I do? I don't know if I can.
**[12:24] ---**
I'm nervous too.
**[12:28] ---**
It'll be fine. We had
plenty of lessons, right?
**[12:31] ---**
Yeah.
**[12:32] ---**
You're right.
**[12:34] ---**
How do you feel?
**[12:37] ---**
Mio... Uzuki...
**[12:39] ---**
It's your unit's first
performance. Go have fun!
**[12:42] ---**
T-Thanks.
**[12:44] ---**
We will...
**[12:45] ---**
By the way, do you two know
how great fried chicken is?
**[12:50] ---**
Walking home from school hungry.
**[12:52] ---**
You stop in a convenience store.
And they've got aromatic, juicy chicken!
**[12:59] ---**
It doesn't have to be meat. Sing as if
your favorite food's in front of you.
**[13:05] ---**
Right, Shimamu?
**[13:07] ---**
Yes!
**[13:10] ---**
That might work.
**[13:12] ---**
Nao-chan, Karen-chan...
**[13:15] ---**
Take care of Shiburin.
**[13:19] ---**
We will!
**[13:21] ---**
Rin-chan?
**[13:26] ---**
Uzuki...
**[13:27] ---**
Good luck, Rin-chan!
**[13:30] ---**
Thank you, Uzuki.
**[13:36] ---**
See you later!
**[13:38] ---**
See you later.
**[13:43] ---**
We're ready!
**[13:45] ---**
- Anytime!
- Understood.
**[13:49] ---**
It's that time.
**[13:50] ---**
Yeah...
**[13:56] ---**
I'll be back. Watch me.
**[13:59] ---**
Of course.
**[14:00] ---**
I'm your producer.
**[14:10] ---**
- Let's go!
- Yeah!
**[14:13] ---**
Chocolate!
**[14:18] ---**
So when charismatic
middle-schooler me put on a smock,
**[14:22] ---**
*THANKS, OK NOW!! - MIO*
**[14:23] ---**
it became the fashion, don't you know!
**[14:28] ---**
And the next group is raring to go...
**[14:31] ---**
...so let's keep the fire burning
for the show's second half!
**[14:39] ---**
* Brightly-colored ripples*
* are blown by the wind*
**[14:47] ---**
*Into the bright, glistening sky*
**[15:06] ---**
Just what is the meaning of this?
**[15:09] ---**
Explain.
**[15:11] ---**
* The light from the setting*
* sun shines on the keyboard*
**[15:18] ---**
I'm okay now.
**[15:20] ---**
Can you go on?
**[15:22] ---**
Yes.
**[15:23] ---**
Um...
**[15:24] ---**
*Staring at a nobly blooming flower*
**[15:28] ---**
I'm sorry, Tachibana-san.
**[15:34] ---**
You can call me Arisu.
**[15:38] ---**
Thank you, Arisu-chan.
**[15:40] ---**
* Close your eyes and feel it.*
* In the darkness*
**[15:45] ---**
All three of them are great...
**[15:47] ---**
They sure are.
**[15:54] ---**
*This intense feeling is overflowing*
**[15:59] ---**
A clover?
**[16:00] ---**
Yeah. It's a charm.
**[16:02] ---**
Let's have fun.
**[16:04] ---**
- Like this?
- Yes!
**[16:07] ---**
Neither side knew how to act.
**[16:10] ---**
We'll get used to each other soon.
**[16:12] ---**
Yeah. From now on, we're a team.
**[16:15] ---**
*Into the bright, glistening sky*
**[16:34] ---**
Thank you very much!
**[16:42] ---**
We did it!
**[16:43] ---**
Yeah!
**[16:45] ---**
Producer...
**[16:48] ---**
How were we?
**[16:50] ---**
It was a great performance.
**[16:54] ---**
Rin!
**[16:55] ---**
Hurry up!
**[16:58] ---**
Everyone...
**[17:12] ---**
It seems you saved your division.
**[17:16] ---**
I just did what I could
as someone who was there.
**[17:31] ---**
This is nice...
**[17:33] ---**
Experiencing the concert from here...
**[17:37] ---**
Fight!
**[17:42] ---**
The view only from
above is beautiful too,
**[17:45] ---**
but what supports
it all is right here.
**[17:50] ---**
The power of the bond
between those who share a dream
**[17:54] ---**
is what supports that gorgeous stage.
**[17:58] ---**
The bond of girls connected
by the dream of being an idol.
**[18:03] ---**
Pretty nifty, huh?
**[18:18] ---**
Well, excuse me.
**[18:25] ---**
I needn't tell you if
this concert is a success, correct?
**[18:30] ---**
Then the midterm judgment...
**[18:32] ---**
I assessed the current results.
**[18:34] ---**
But I didn't take into account
your fairy tale, "The Power of Smile."
**[18:40] ---**
I decided based on the way your
division handled this evening.
**[18:45] ---**
I'll be waiting for the results
from your winter ball.
**[18:55] ---**
Yes!
**[18:57] ---**
I think it'll get busier,
but best wishes.
**[19:02] ---**
- Okay!
- It's fine!
**[19:03] ---**
- We'll do our best!
- It's just what we want, nya!
**[19:08] ---**
Also, the two participating
in Project Krone...
**[19:12] ---**
Anastasia-san will stay a solo artist,
**[19:15] ---**
and Shibuya-san will be
with Triad Primus but us as well.
**[19:20] ---**
That was decided at
a meeting with Director Mishiro.
**[19:24] ---**
I'm sorry, everyone...
**[19:26] ---**
I'm sorry...
**[19:28] ---**
It's fine! Both are important!
**[19:31] ---**
Mio...
**[19:32] ---**
And we'll stay teamed up
with Natsukichi and Nana-chan.
**[19:36] ---**
That's right, nya!
**[19:38] ---**
When things get busy,
everyone but me will pitch in to help.
**[19:43] ---**
I-I could help, if you don't mind...
**[19:45] ---**
We'll all help, right?
**[19:48] ---**
Uzuki?
**[19:53] ---**
I'll do my best!
**[19:55] ---**
R-Right...
**[19:57] ---**
What's wrong, Shimamu?
**[20:13] ---**
They're the talk of town.
**[20:15] ---**
Yes. It seems they're popular too.
**[20:19] ---**
The idols in all the
divisions are happy these days.
**[20:24] ---**
Yes.
**[20:26] ---**
Hey, have you seen Uzuki?
**[20:29] ---**
She's at a magazine
photo shoot with Kohinata-san.
**[20:33] ---**
You wished to speak?
**[20:35] ---**
I've been so busy with the other unit
lately we haven't talked.
**[20:39] ---**
Am I at fault?
**[20:43] ---**
Right now, I think Shimamura-san
needs to work with Kohinata-san.
**[20:51] ---**
Would you like to go
to the shoot with me?
**[20:54] ---**
Wait. Uzuki-chan,
that pose is too stiff.
**[20:59] ---**
Could you try changing it?
**[21:00] ---**
Sure!
**[21:02] ---**
Now smile, you two!
**[21:04] ---**
Miho-chan, great smile!
**[21:07] ---**
Sorry.
**[21:08] ---**
Uzuki-chan, your expression is stiff.
**[21:11] ---**
Sorry!
**[21:14] ---**
You're so good at this.
**[21:16] ---**
Not really!
**[21:17] ---**
Even now, I get totally nervous.
**[21:19] ---**
Oh... really?
**[21:23] ---**
You can't really
change that kind of thing.
**[21:27] ---**
Right.
**[21:29] ---**
But work is fun.
**[21:33] ---**
Did that come out condescending?
**[21:36] ---**
No...
**[21:37] ---**
Miho-chan, can I have a minute?
**[21:39] ---**
Sure!
**[22:07] ---**
Good work.
**[22:10] ---**
Good work...
**[22:12] ---**
Um...
**[22:13] ---**
I'm sorry!
**[22:17] ---**
Uzuki?
**[22:18] ---**
Sorry.
**[22:20] ---**
Um... uh... when you apologized just
now, that was my fault, wasn't it?
**[22:31] ---**
Let's get back in the game.
**[22:34] ---**
I'll do my best...
I'll give it my all.
**[22:39] ---**
Everyone's doing
their best, and so will I...
**[22:43] ---**
Um... Huh?
**[22:45] ---**
I-I'm sorry. I just keep
repeating "I'll do my best," huh?
**[22:51] ---**
Maybe we should call it a day.
**[22:56] ---**
Apparently, you seemed
a little off today...
**[23:00] ---**
Off?
**[23:08] ---**
Yes.
**[23:10] ---**
I understand.
**[23:14] ---**
I apologize, everyone.
I'm leaving for the day...
**[23:18] ---**
Uzuki-chan...
**[23:26] ---**
Hey... What's wrong with Uzuki?
**[23:30] ---**
It seems she was out of sorts...

**[00:03] ---**
Yes?
**[00:04] ---**
Uzuki?
**[00:05] ---**
Yes. What's up?
**[00:08] ---**
Well, I saw you at the studio today...
**[00:12] ---**
Are you... you know, okay?
**[00:15] ---**
Sorry to make you worry.
**[00:18] ---**
I wasn't myself today...
**[00:21] ---**
I'll be back on track tomorrow.
**[00:24] ---**
Okay. As long as you're all right...
**[00:27] ---**
Talk to you later then.
**[00:29] ---**
Right. Thank you.
**[00:37] ---**
All right...
**[00:46] ---**
Producer-san!
**[00:49] ---**
Good morning.
**[00:50] ---**
Good morning.
**[00:52] ---**
I apologize for
going home early yesterday.
**[00:56] ---**
That's okay. Are you better now?
**[00:59] ---**
Yes. And also, um...
**[01:05] ---**
Training school?
**[01:08] ---**
Like you said, I've been kind of tired.
**[01:13] ---**
I think maybe what I need is to
build up my stamina so I can do better.
**[01:18] ---**
At this rate, I'll just be a drag
on Mio-chan and Rin-chan...
**[01:24] ---**
So I'm thinking of
taking a break from work,
**[01:28] ---**
and concentrating one
more time on core lessons.
**[01:33] ---**
Uzuki Shimamura will do her best!
**[03:07] ---**
Shimamu?
**[03:08] ---**
Yes.
**[03:09] ---**
Training school...
**[03:11] ---**
Even though she's
already made her debut?
**[03:15] ---**
Why?
**[03:17] ---**
She asked to do the core lessons again,
and I've accepted it as her decision.
**[03:24] ---**
She's already got regular
work scheduled with Miho-chan...
**[03:28] ---**
Yes. During this period, I may ask
all of you to pitch in as necessary.
**[03:36] ---**
Thank you in advance
for your cooperation.
**[03:40] ---**
Sure...
**[03:41] ---**
Even though the ball is coming up...
**[03:44] ---**
I wonder what's wrong with Uzuki-chan...
**[03:49] ---**
It'll be okay.
**[03:50] ---**
Let's wait for her with a smile.
**[03:51] ---**
Kirari-chan is right.
**[03:54] ---**
Da. Smiles are important.
**[03:57] ---**
That's right, nya.
**[03:59] ---**
All right! Smiles, everyone, smiles.
**[04:02] ---**
Shibuya-san, Honda-san...
**[04:05] ---**
I'll keep an eye on
Shimamura-san as much as possible,
**[04:09] ---**
so I'd like you two
to focus on your work.
**[04:12] ---**
Right.
**[04:17] ---**
Even though she said she was fine...
**[04:19] ---**
I'll try calling her later.
**[04:22] ---**
Okay.
**[04:30] ---**
Okay, turn.
**[04:35] ---**
You can use that
when there's an opening.
**[04:38] ---**
Thank you!
**[04:40] ---**
But don't push yourself too hard.
**[04:43] ---**
Right!
**[04:47] ---**
I was surprised.
Why go back to training school?
**[04:52] ---**
I wanted to go back to
the basics once more.
**[04:56] ---**
I'll do my best so I can
sing with you two again.
**[05:01] ---**
Are you really okay?
**[05:03] ---**
Yes. Mio-chan called me earlier too...
**[05:08] ---**
But I'm fine.
**[05:11] ---**
I'll be back soon.
**[05:14] ---**
Okay. I'll be waiting for you.
Talk to you later...
**[05:28] ---**
Producer-san!
**[05:33] ---**
How do you feel?
**[05:36] ---**
Good. It's going well.
**[05:39] ---**
Is it?
**[05:43] ---**
I feel kind of relaxed when I come here.
**[05:49] ---**
Um, don't you have to
visit everyone else on the job?
**[05:54] ---**
That's all right. I have time.
**[05:57] ---**
I'm sorry for
causing all this trouble...
**[06:01] ---**
Mimura-san is filling in for
Kohinata-san for the time being.
**[06:08] ---**
That's good.
**[06:09] ---**
I know Kanako-chan can be counted on.
**[06:13] ---**
She'll stand in
for you until you return.
**[06:17] ---**
Right...
**[06:22] ---**
I'll hurry and do my
best so I can get back soon.
**[06:29] ---**
I'm Miho Kohinata.
It's nice to meet you.
**[06:32] ---**
I'm Kanako Mimura.
Nice to meet you too.
**[06:38] ---**
Hello! Let's hear from a
lot of people in town today too!
**[06:42] ---**
We're your reporters, Chieri Ogata...
**[06:45] ---**
...and Ranko Kanzaki!
**[06:47] ---**
Tremble at the sorrowful voices that
reverberate through the ancient city!
**[06:52] ---**
Could you change the schedule so that
Ranko Kanzaki arrives 30 minutes later?
**[06:57] ---**
Sorry about this.
**[07:02] ---**
Watch what she does first,
then say the line.
**[07:05] ---**
Okay, I'll try it that way!
**[07:08] ---**
Great. Okay, look right at the camera.
**[07:11] ---**
Nice! Just like that!
**[07:40] ---**
Shimamu?
**[07:41] ---**
Yes. What is it?
**[07:45] ---**
Well, I haven't seen you for a while,
so I thought maybe I'd come to visit.
**[07:50] ---**
Invite Shiburin too...
**[07:51] ---**
Y-You don't have to!
**[07:54] ---**
U-Um, after all,
both of you have work to do...
**[08:01] ---**
And besides, I'm fine, really.
**[08:04] ---**
O-Oh?
**[08:06] ---**
Well, as long as you're good...
**[08:09] ---**
Yes, and doing my best.
**[08:13] ---**
She doesn't want us to come?
**[08:15] ---**
She didn't say it like that,
**[08:19] ---**
but it kind of came off that way...
**[08:23] ---**
"You're gonna visit me?
I missed you too!"
**[08:26] ---**
Isn't that what Shimamu
would normally say?
**[08:29] ---**
I was like, huh?
**[08:32] ---**
What was she like when she
went home early from work?
**[08:37] ---**
I don't really know, since I was
watching from across the room,
**[08:41] ---**
but I don't think she was smiling.
**[08:45] ---**
Before our debut concert,
Shimamu spent a lot of time,
**[08:49] ---**
practicing all alone, remember?
**[08:51] ---**
She didn't say anything to us then.
**[08:55] ---**
Maybe she's the type of
person who keeps things bottled up...
**[09:00] ---**
I wonder if the producer
knows the circumstances.
**[09:10] ---**
Good work.
**[09:12] ---**
Good work.
**[09:14] ---**
I'll leave the script and cast list for
"Totokira Academy" right here.
**[09:18] ---**
Senkawa-san...
**[09:19] ---**
Yes?
**[09:21] ---**
I know this is sudden, but is there some
event that my department can take on?
**[09:40] ---**
Dance really is difficult.
**[09:42] ---**
It's complicated.
**[09:44] ---**
I'll do my best to master various steps.
**[09:48] ---**
Shimamura-san...
**[09:49] ---**
Yes?
**[09:50] ---**
I know this is sudden, but New
Generations has a concert next week.
**[09:57] ---**
I want you to perform too.
**[10:02] ---**
Would you think about it?
**[10:07] ---**
After you told me that I was
"off" the other day, I finally realized,
**[10:16] ---**
that I should go back to taking lessons,
and that I wasn't ready yet.
**[10:21] ---**
That there are
too many things I can't do...
**[10:24] ---**
So if I go back now,
when I still have no confidence,
**[10:29] ---**
it would only make problems
for Rin-chan and Mio-chan.
**[10:34] ---**
So... um... this time...
**[10:39] ---**
Shimamu isn't enthusiastic about it?
**[10:42] ---**
Correct.
**[10:43] ---**
Why?
**[10:45] ---**
When the three of us have a
chance to sing again together...
**[10:50] ---**
Producer...
Why is she at the training school?
**[10:54] ---**
What happened to Uzuki?
**[10:56] ---**
I don't really know myself.
**[11:00] ---**
But I sensed that she
wasn't her usual self.
**[11:06] ---**
Ever since both of you started being
active outside of New Generations...
**[11:12] ---**
It's my fault...
**[11:14] ---**
New Generations' isn't as busy
since I started with Triad.
**[11:18] ---**
Wrong! I mean, it's my fault.
**[11:20] ---**
Since I started acting...
**[11:23] ---**
She's been depressed about that?
**[11:28] ---**
I think your individual
activities are essential to you.
**[11:34] ---**
And I also assented to
Shimamura-san's lessons,
**[11:37] ---**
if they were necessary
for her to move forward.
**[11:41] ---**
But now I think she's not
heading in the right direction.
**[11:46] ---**
Then this concert...
**[11:50] ---**
I intend to keep approaching her
until she agrees to perform.
**[12:12] ---**
What's wrong, Shibuya?
You're not concentrating.
**[12:17] ---**
- I'm sorry.
- Let's start from the top.
**[12:32] ---**
Rin...
**[12:34] ---**
Um...
**[12:36] ---**
Sorry. Before, I was...
**[12:39] ---**
Thinking about Uzuki-chan, right?
**[12:42] ---**
She's been off work
for several days, huh?
**[12:45] ---**
Shouldn't you go see her?
**[12:49] ---**
Sorry. You're right.
**[12:51] ---**
After our dance lesson...
**[12:53] ---**
Just go now. You're so worried
that you're forgetting lyrics.
**[12:58] ---**
New Gen is important to us too.
**[13:03] ---**
We'll smooth it over with the trainer.
**[13:07] ---**
Thank you.
**[13:15] ---**
I want to see Uzuki.
**[13:17] ---**
Mio and I should tell her that we
want to perform at the concert together.
**[13:22] ---**
Tell me where her training school is.
**[13:25] ---**
I'll print out a map.
**[13:30] ---**
You didn't say,
"Please leave this to me."
**[13:34] ---**
This is different from that time.
**[13:42] ---**
- Mio...
- Shiburin!
**[13:59] ---**
Good morning...
**[14:03] ---**
Rin-chan, Mio-chan...
**[14:06] ---**
Hi.
**[14:11] ---**
I'm surprised to see you two.
**[14:13] ---**
Are you done working today?
**[14:17] ---**
Yeah. You could say that.
**[14:19] ---**
Uzuki.
**[14:21] ---**
Is it true you don't want to
perform at the Christmas concert?
**[14:25] ---**
It's not like I don't want to perform.
I just don't have the confidence yet.
**[14:31] ---**
And Producer told me I was off my game.
**[14:37] ---**
I'm taking lessons at my pace,
**[14:39] ---**
and as soon as I feel confident...
**[14:42] ---**
Is that all?
**[14:44] ---**
It's not because Mio and I started
working outside of New Gen?
**[14:48] ---**
It's because I started looking
for other work, right?
**[14:53] ---**
N-No! It's not about that.
**[14:57] ---**
Both of you shine!
**[15:00] ---**
It's really incredible. And everyone
in our department, they're really...
**[15:05] ---**
The point is,
**[15:07] ---**
I need to work even harder,
**[15:09] ---**
so I can catch up.
**[15:12] ---**
Hey, Shimamu. Let's do the concert!
**[15:15] ---**
Doing work apart from each other
is just to test our own capabilities.
**[15:20] ---**
Let's do everything we can
and then take on the ball!
**[15:26] ---**
The ball...
**[15:28] ---**
You're right...
**[15:30] ---**
That's soon, huh?
**[15:34] ---**
And yet, here I am...
**[15:38] ---**
What have I been doing all this time?
**[15:42] ---**
I wonder if maybe I became
an idol a little too early...
**[15:47] ---**
- Wait. What are you saying...
- That's right. It was too soon.
**[15:52] ---**
I'm not ready for a palace ball...
**[15:57] ---**
You mean you're not
going to perform at the ball?
**[16:04] ---**
You are kidding, right?
**[16:08] ---**
Uzuki Shimamura will do her best!
**[16:11] ---**
I'll go back to square one
and do my best.
**[16:14] ---**
- I may lag behind everyone for a while,
- Hold on...
**[16:18] ---**
- but one day I'll become a shining idol.
- Hold on.
**[16:21] ---**
Stop trying to brush it off!
**[16:28] ---**
S-Shiburin?
**[16:30] ---**
Rin Shibuya didn't go to
her dance lesson today.
**[16:34] ---**
But you already knew that.
**[16:36] ---**
Yes.
**[16:39] ---**
Her actions are having an effect on
Triad, not to mention your department.
**[16:46] ---**
Valuing the feelings
of each and every idol.
**[16:50] ---**
Is this what it gets you?
**[16:53] ---**
Cut her loose.
**[16:58] ---**
U-Um, Rin-chan...
**[17:10] ---**
Do you remember what you told me?
**[17:15] ---**
That even with dreams...
**[17:18] ---**
A day will come when you can
become something that shines.
**[17:22] ---**
What about now?
**[17:26] ---**
Don't run away.
**[17:28] ---**
I'm not running...
**[17:31] ---**
What do you think about the ball?
About New Gen?
**[17:34] ---**
I haven't heard your
answer about that yet.
**[17:41] ---**
I...
**[17:43] ---**
You're not fine at all!
**[17:45] ---**
I won't listen to lies like
"I don't have confidence yet,"
**[17:49] ---**
or "I'm going back to square one"!
**[17:55] ---**
- They're not lies...
- I don't want to see a fake smile!
**[18:02] ---**
When I decided to do Triad, you agreed.
**[18:04] ---**
Were your words
and smile then also lies?
**[18:11] ---**
I'm not lying. I really do...
**[18:15] ---**
Unbelievable.
**[18:18] ---**
That's what I think
when I look at you now.
**[18:27] ---**
Say something, Shimamu.
**[18:33] ---**
I really did just want to do my best.
**[18:38] ---**
To give it everything
I have one more time...
**[18:43] ---**
To smile naturally...
**[18:46] ---**
I had a nice smile, right?
**[18:50] ---**
Huh? But I wanted to do my best...
for the ball...
**[18:58] ---**
I have to shine like everyone else.
**[19:01] ---**
Singing, acting, dancing,
various things...
**[19:08] ---**
Everyone's done their best!
I love lessons!
**[19:12] ---**
So I thought if I did my best...
If I took a lot more lessons... Um...
**[19:23] ---**
But I still have no idea what it is.
**[19:27] ---**
I don't know what it is
**[19:30] ---**
that shines inside of me.
**[19:33] ---**
What should I do if nothing changes?
**[19:36] ---**
What if the time comes
and I haven't changed?
**[19:42] ---**
I'm scared.
**[19:44] ---**
What should I do if I'm the only
one who doesn't find anything?
**[19:50] ---**
I'm scared...
**[19:56] ---**
The producer said I had a nice smile...
**[20:01] ---**
...but... but...
**[20:06] ---**
...smiling... laughing...
anyone can do that!
**[20:13] ---**
There's nothing...
**[20:15] ---**
I've got nothing...
**[20:20] ---**
Shimamu...
**[20:22] ---**
Don't say anyone can do it.
**[20:26] ---**
You took the first step.
**[20:27] ---**
You said you may be able to shine.
**[20:30] ---**
You had a dazzling
smile back then, Uzuki.
**[20:39] ---**
Because you had that smile, I...
**[21:03] ---**
Shimamu.
**[21:05] ---**
Before, when I ran away,
you waited for me.
**[21:12] ---**
You made me feel at ease.
**[21:15] ---**
No matter what the situation, you always
smiled and said, "I'll do my best."
**[21:21] ---**
But that's not always possible, is it?
**[21:23] ---**
I'm sorry that I didn't notice.
**[21:40] ---**
Let's be friends again! From right now!
**[21:47] ---**
Think of idols as stars.
**[21:50] ---**
You should know if the
starlight is going to fade.
**[21:54] ---**
A star that's hidden
by clouds is worthless.
**[21:57] ---**
If you can't see it, it's just darkness.
**[22:00] ---**
Nothingness.
**[22:02] ---**
All clouds clear up.
**[22:05] ---**
And the stars are still there.
**[22:09] ---**
She... Uzuki Shimamura is an essential
member of the Cinderella Project.
**[22:16] ---**
She will come back.
**[22:20] ---**
I'm waiting for her.
**[22:22] ---**
No... Please let me wait for her.
**[22:30] ---**
Um... We're going back.
**[22:36] ---**
Okay. See you later.
**[22:41] ---**
Uzuki...
**[22:44] ---**
I'll be waiting for you.

**[00:19] ---**
Where's your glow? You're still
a grubby, ash-covered Cinderella.
**[00:26] ---**
Anyone who can't shine
won't climb the steps to the castle.
**[00:47] ---**
Yeah, the hall looked spiffy.
**[00:50] ---**
When did you see it?
**[00:52] ---**
After the play...
**[00:57] ---**
U-Um, good morning.
**[01:01] ---**
Uh, I appreciate, um...
**[01:04] ---**
Shimamu!
**[01:05] ---**
U-Um...
**[01:07] ---**
Shimamu!
**[01:08] ---**
You came!
**[01:10] ---**
Y-Yes...
**[01:19] ---**
What is it?
You both look so gloomy.
**[01:26] ---**
Producer, Shimamu's here!
**[01:29] ---**
ANZU FUTABA
**[01:33] ---**
Good morning.
**[01:34] ---**
G-Good morning...
**[01:38] ---**
How do you feel?
**[01:40] ---**
R-Right! Better than before...
**[01:44] ---**
And your anxiety...
**[01:46] ---**
Um... Better than before...
**[01:52] ---**
The Christmas concert is tomorrow.
**[01:56] ---**
Can you perform?
**[02:01] ---**
Um, I... Uh...
**[02:07] ---**
Stop it!
**[02:08] ---**
The three of us...
**[02:10] ---**
I want the three of us to perform together.
**[02:14] ---**
Shiburin.
**[02:21] ---**
Shimamu, I'm glad you came.
**[02:26] ---**
Thank you.
**[02:32] ---**
Preparations for
tomorrow are proceeding.
**[02:41] ---**
Shimamura-san.
**[02:44] ---**
Would you be willing
to take a lesson?
**[02:52] ---**
Sorry.
**[02:55] ---**
For my embarrassing outburst...
**[02:59] ---**
But it was heartbreaking when
I thought she wasn't coming back...
**[03:06] ---**
Shiburin.
**[03:10] ---**
The three of us are
performing at the concert, right?
**[03:12] ---**
Let's have faith in Shimamu and wait!
We can't let ourselves be pessimistic.
**[03:20] ---**
Mio... Wow.
**[03:25] ---**
It's just that I decided to stay upbeat.
**[03:30] ---**
Thank you.
**[03:39] ---**
E-Excuse me...
**[03:42] ---**
Uzuki-chan!
**[03:44] ---**
G-Good morning!
**[03:47] ---**
- We were so worried!
- Are you okay now?
**[03:50] ---**
Um, uh...
**[03:52] ---**
Uzuki-chan.
**[03:55] ---**
No matter what the reason,
**[03:57] ---**
I consider abandoning
work a failure as a pro.
**[04:02] ---**
I agree.
**[04:04] ---**
I am so sorry.
**[04:07] ---**
Miku...
**[04:10] ---**
I was really worried.
**[04:15] ---**
- They look good on you!
- Uzu-nyan!
**[04:18] ---**
Now, Uzu-nyan, let's go see
everyone with a smile on your face.
**[04:23] ---**
A smile...
**[04:28] ---**
Uzuki-chan...
**[04:30] ---**
Uzuki-chan, let's do a lesson together
before everyone else gets here.
**[04:41] ---**
Why am I doing a basic lesson too?
**[04:44] ---**
What're you saying, nya? It's crucial!
**[04:47] ---**
Even though you hated
taking them before...
**[04:51] ---**
T-That was a long time ago, nya!
**[04:53] ---**
We competed with Uzuki-chan's group.
**[04:56] ---**
That was a long time ago, nya!
**[04:59] ---**
A lot's happened since then.
**[05:02] ---**
That was a long time ago, nya!
**[05:06] ---**
I see.
**[05:07] ---**
It's been six
months already, huh?
**[05:10] ---**
I never imagined
any of this happening.
**[05:16] ---**
Six months ago, I came to the company
for the first time all by myself.
**[05:22] ---**
Huh...
**[05:24] ---**
I was scared, but when
I got here, I was thrilled!
**[05:28] ---**
It looked like a real palace!
**[05:31] ---**
I had a different impression.
**[05:35] ---**
I thought it'd all be fun and
games if I became an idol.
**[05:39] ---**
I hardly saw my sister, and all we did
was lessons till the roster got filled.
**[05:46] ---**
We were waiting for you guys.
**[05:49] ---**
Yeah! I was excited
about making new friends!
**[05:53] ---**
I thought of everyone as my rival, nya.
**[05:58] ---**
I was anxious about being overshadowed.
**[06:02] ---**
All I did was spin my wheels.
**[06:04] ---**
A lot's happened, but I'm
glad Miku and I teamed up.
**[06:10] ---**
Clashing along the way.
**[06:12] ---**
But I realized this is the kind
of rock idol I'm aiming to be.
**[06:17] ---**
Well, there are times
I want her to give in.
**[06:21] ---**
Same here, nya!
**[06:23] ---**
What's that?
**[06:25] ---**
You got here after
an audition, right, Uzuki-chan?
**[06:29] ---**
Right. I filled a vacancy.
**[06:32] ---**
Passing is passing.
**[06:35] ---**
I didn't think I was going to pass.
**[06:40] ---**
But even a girl like me
can become a cute idol.
**[06:45] ---**
I was told that I could,
which touched me.
**[06:50] ---**
Me too. I was so happy when I was
told that even I could become an idol.
**[06:59] ---**
Back then, I didn't realize
how much work it would be.
**[07:05] ---**
But what's changed a little
and what's stayed the same...
**[07:10] ---**
I want to treasure both.
**[07:12] ---**
What comes into view on adventures.
**[07:16] ---**
A new world that is very exciting...
**[07:20] ---**
And коллега... Getting to know my
colleagues, knowing I am not alone.
**[07:26] ---**
There've been times
I've panicked over screwing up.
**[07:30] ---**
But even so,
looking back, I'm glad I tried.
**[07:35] ---**
Well, it's best to work
at your own pace.
**[07:38] ---**
Of course there's anxiety.
**[07:41] ---**
Because no one knows
what's at the end of the adventure.
**[07:47] ---**
But I knew we all get anxious, and
together, we can face anything.
**[07:54] ---**
That's what gives me
confidence to move forward.
**[08:06] ---**
Shimamu!
**[08:08] ---**
Here you are!
**[08:13] ---**
Nothing left here, huh?
**[08:16] ---**
Nope.
**[08:22] ---**
That's right. Here.
**[08:24] ---**
I thought we'd decorate the
concert hall with them.
**[08:28] ---**
We all write down
a dream or wish on one.
**[08:32] ---**
A dream?
**[08:34] ---**
Mio-santa and Shibu-santa
will make your wish come true!
**[08:38] ---**
Right?
**[08:40] ---**
Yeah.
**[08:42] ---**
Thank you.
**[08:46] ---**
As expected,
just waiting was futile.
**[08:49] ---**
If you won't cut her loose,
I don't mind doing it myself.
**[08:54] ---**
Please wait! She's back now!
**[08:56] ---**
She's out of time.
**[09:00] ---**
And in a way, this suggestion is
tied to your department's existence.
**[09:06] ---**
You don't understand?
**[09:08] ---**
I'm saying it'd be disappointing
to lose all your accomplishments.
**[09:13] ---**
You should forget about
your fantasy called "Power of Smile"
**[09:19] ---**
and fire Uzuki Shimamura.
**[09:22] ---**
You need to come
to your senses soon.
**[09:27] ---**
I can't change my objective.
**[09:29] ---**
What?
**[09:31] ---**
That's where the light is.
**[09:34] ---**
You just can't see it right now.
**[09:50] ---**
I HOPE NG'S XMAS CONCERT IS A SUCCESS
KAREN
**[09:50] ---**
Thank you.
**[09:54] ---**
Sorry for all the trouble I've caused.
**[09:57] ---**
What are you talking about?
**[09:59] ---**
She's a member of your unit,
so you can't neglect her.
**[10:04] ---**
It's so cold!
**[10:06] ---**
Mio...
**[10:08] ---**
You two wrote your wishes!
**[10:10] ---**
Yes.
**[10:12] ---**
Did you gather all of them?
**[10:13] ---**
Yeah.
**[10:15] ---**
Everyone did their best
to get the word out.
**[10:20] ---**
Miku-nyan told me,
"New Gen is such a pain, nya!"
**[10:26] ---**
We really have lost our prestige.
**[10:31] ---**
I want to show Nao-chan and
Karen-chan our good side too.
**[10:35] ---**
Anyway, we'll do our best!
**[10:39] ---**
Same here!
**[10:40] ---**
New Gen has an important goal.
**[10:44] ---**
I WANT TO WORK WITH UZUKI-CHAN AGAIN
MIHO
**[10:47] ---**
Thank you!
**[10:49] ---**
Hey!
**[10:51] ---**
I heard stars were giving out stars.
**[10:54] ---**
Kaede-san! Mika-nee!
**[10:58] ---**
Thank you!
**[11:00] ---**
How does it look?
**[11:03] ---**
I guess we're just
doing all we can.
**[11:10] ---**
Hang in there.
**[11:13] ---**
You can't wait?
**[11:15] ---**
No. I've waited long enough.
**[11:19] ---**
Is that all?
**[11:22] ---**
Pardon?
**[11:24] ---**
I'm just worried.
**[11:26] ---**
His ideal is just
beginning to produce results.
**[11:30] ---**
You're not interested in that, are you?
**[11:35] ---**
But don't let your feelings sway you,
or else you'll lose sight of the light.
**[11:42] ---**
Be sure to go to that concert.
**[11:45] ---**
You'll still have time
to make a decision afterwards.
**[12:21] ---**
You don't belong here. Show some ID.
**[12:23] ---**
No...
**[12:24] ---**
I'm here on business...
**[12:26] ---**
P-Producer-san?
**[12:30] ---**
Sorry.
**[12:31] ---**
T-That's okay...
**[12:35] ---**
Um, where are Mio-chan and Rin-chan?
**[12:38] ---**
They're already at the venue.
**[13:10] ---**
Nothing. I just worked as
staff for a concert there before.
**[13:16] ---**
Kaede-san and
the others were wonderful.
**[13:21] ---**
Shall we stop by?
**[13:25] ---**
Can we?
**[13:26] ---**
We still have time.
**[13:31] ---**
It feels strange.
**[13:33] ---**
Actually, Rin-chan and Mio-chan
were at that winter concert too.
**[13:39] ---**
I also helped out.
**[13:44] ---**
We may have passed each other.
**[14:03] ---**
The stage is all lit up.
It's so bright...
**[14:09] ---**
Back then, I wished to become an idol...
or something that shines.
**[14:18] ---**
That's why I was so
happy when you found me.
**[14:24] ---**
It's like I fell under a spell...
**[14:28] ---**
I didn't want it to ever end...
**[14:35] ---**
But the spell was broken.
**[14:41] ---**
If we don't produce results at the
ball, the department will be dissolved.
**[14:47] ---**
So I meant to do my best,
**[14:54] ---**
but somewhere along the line,
**[14:58] ---**
it turned into a lie.
**[15:01] ---**
A lie?
**[15:03] ---**
Mio-chan's solo activities,
Rin-chan's Triad Primus...
**[15:08] ---**
My work with Miho-chan too.
**[15:12] ---**
I tried to see that we were each getting
stronger, doing what was needed
**[15:19] ---**
so the ball would be a success.
**[15:22] ---**
I meant to give it
my all like they were.
**[15:26] ---**
But everyone was shining,
except for me...
**[15:33] ---**
And I was so scared
because I thought I couldn't...
**[15:38] ---**
But then Rin-chan got mad at me.
She told me I didn't have "nothing."
**[15:45] ---**
Then Mio-chan smiled and said,
"Let's be friends again."
**[15:50] ---**
They said they would wait for me...
**[15:54] ---**
I want to be with them.
**[15:59] ---**
And yet... And yet, I...
**[16:03] ---**
Even now, I'm scared!
**[16:07] ---**
I thought I would do my best
one more time, seek something out...
**[16:13] ---**
But then what do I
do if nothing's there?
**[16:18] ---**
I thought doing my best...
**[16:20] ---**
wasn't good enough anymore.
**[16:26] ---**
I'm scared of myself.
**[16:36] ---**
When we first met in the spring,
you asked me why I chose you.
**[16:44] ---**
I answered that it was your smile.
**[16:49] ---**
Even if you asked me
the same question right now,
**[16:55] ---**
that's what I would answer.
**[16:58] ---**
For your smile that is yours alone.
**[17:04] ---**
Even if you don't have
faith in yourself right now,
**[17:08] ---**
I have faith in you.
**[17:11] ---**
Without your smile,
New Generations wouldn't...
**[17:16] ---**
We would never have made it this far.
**[17:25] ---**
If that's true, it makes me happy.
**[17:31] ---**
But how did I smile in the spring?
**[17:39] ---**
But...
**[17:41] ---**
But I want to
**[17:43] ---**
go forward with Rin-chan and Mio-chan...
**[17:54] ---**
Shimamura-san...
**[17:56] ---**
Please make a choice.
**[17:59] ---**
Stay here as you are.
**[18:04] ---**
Or believe in
possibilities and go forth.
**[18:09] ---**
The decision is yours, Shimamura-san.
**[18:32] ---**
Uzuki...
**[18:37] ---**
Um, I'm still...
**[18:41] ---**
Still scared...
**[18:44] ---**
I don't know if I still have
the smile that's mine alone.
**[18:49] ---**
But I want you to look at me.
**[18:53] ---**
I want to make sure for myself!
**[18:57] ---**
If there might be something...
**[19:02] ---**
I don't know if there is...
**[19:05] ---**
But...
**[19:10] ---**
I want to believe!
**[19:12] ---**
I want to believe that I can shine too!
**[19:18] ---**
Because I hate the way things are now!
**[19:24] ---**
Good! We were waiting for you!
**[19:29] ---**
Shiburin...
**[19:32] ---**
Rin-chan!
**[19:37] ---**
Uzuki!
**[19:41] ---**
Shimamura-san, you made your choice,
**[19:45] ---**
but you won't be alone.
**[19:50] ---**
We will...
**[19:56] ---**
Everyone will be there.
**[20:01] ---**
Everyone, thank you for coming to the
New Generations Christmas concert today.
**[20:10] ---**
It feels kind of strange.
**[20:13] ---**
Is it strange?
**[20:15] ---**
No, it suits you, Shimamu.
**[20:23] ---**
In the end, I couldn't write one...
**[20:31] ---**
Keep it on you, Uzuki.
**[20:38] ---**
It's time.
**[20:42] ---**
It'll be all right.
**[20:44] ---**
You're not alone.
**[20:46] ---**
Let's all shine!
**[20:49] ---**
Right!
**[20:51] ---**
See you later!
**[21:06] ---**
Hello!
**[21:08] ---**
Thank you for coming today!
**[21:17] ---**
U-Um...
**[21:25] ---**
Uh...
**[21:32] ---**
Should we use the teleprompter?
**[21:34] ---**
No.
**[21:39] ---**
- Uzuki-chan!
- Uzuki-chan!
**[21:43] ---**
- Hang in there!
- Go for it!
**[21:59] ---**
I, Uzuki Shimamura, will do my best!
**[22:09] ---**
Uzuki...
**[22:14] ---**
There was a place that I yearned for
**[22:19] ---**
But I just viewed it from afar
**[22:25] ---**
Everyone lined up on either side of me
**[22:29] ---**
Are bright, shining diamonds
**[22:34] ---**
"WHAT SUITS ME?"
**[22:34] ---**
Dive into the spotlight!
A glowing voice that suits me
**[22:35] ---**
Dive into the spotlight!
A glowing voice that suits me
**[22:39] ---**
"I YEARN TO BE A PRINCESS"
**[22:39] ---**
I want you to hear it,
my big dream and melody
**[22:40] ---**
I want you to hear it,
my big dream and melody
**[22:45] ---**
"A NORMAL GIRL"
**[22:45] ---**
As for crying over spilled milk
**[22:47] ---**
As for crying over spilled milk
**[22:50] ---**
I say goodbye
**[22:53] ---**
Go! I won't lose heart anymore!
**[22:58] ---**
I vow to shine more
**[23:01] ---**
"LET'S BELIEVE"
**[23:01] ---**
I'll make a pinky swear
with the future and rise
**[23:02] ---**
I'll make a pinky swear
with the future and rise
**[23:05] ---**
Won't give up anymore
**[23:08] ---**
I'll make a pinky swear with yesterday's
me, depressed and staying in bed
**[23:10] ---**
"YOU CAN SHINE"
**[23:10] ---**
I'll make a pinky swear with yesterday's
me, depressed and staying in bed
**[23:11] ---**
I'll make a pinky swear with yesterday's
me, depressed and staying in bed
**[23:13] ---**
"LET'S LAUGH!!"
**[23:13] ---**
I'll make a pinky swear with yesterday's
me, depressed and staying in bed
**[23:14] ---**
Live! There's no end
**[23:19] ---**
Always smiling!
Singing! Dancing! All my...
**[23:23] ---**
I'll keep singing with all of my love!
**[23:49] ---**
Thank you!

**[00:11] ---**
It's a tale that
any girl would long for.
**[00:17] ---**
CINDERELLA'S BALL
**[00:18] ---**
Hit with a wonderful magic spell...
**[00:21] ---**
Wearing beautiful glass slippers...
**[00:25] ---**
A ball at a huge palace...
**[00:36] ---**
It was a dreamlike
world she'd never seen.
**[00:41] ---**
But when the clock struck twelve...
**[00:45] ---**
...the glass slippers and
lovely dress vanished...
**[00:49] ---**
...leaving behind an ordinary girl.
**[01:03] ---**
What is magic?
**[01:06] ---**
Magic...
**[01:08] ---**
Was it really there?
**[01:17] ---**
We, the 346 Production idols,
have gone all out to bring you...
**[01:23] ---**
...Cinderella's Ball!
**[01:25] ---**
Starting right now!
**[01:31] ---**
Other than this main stage,
we have the right stage...
**[01:37] ---**
The left stage...
**[01:40] ---**
And various other events
will be held in the other halls.
**[01:46] ---**
Please come and go as
you please and have a good time.
**[01:57] ---**
Please follow the staff's instructions.
**[02:00] ---**
I'll arrest any naughty boys and girls!
**[02:06] ---**
Is everybody ready?
**[02:09] ---**
Ready!
**[02:11] ---**
It'll be nonstop here on in!
**[02:13] ---**
Let's have a blast!
**[02:15] ---**
Yay!
**[02:20] ---**
Why don't you enjoy the concert too?
**[02:25] ---**
I'm the idol division's
supervisory director.
**[02:29] ---**
I'm not here to have fun.
**[02:32] ---**
Then why not observe
from the site itself?
**[02:37] ---**
He's responsible for this project,
so you could give him advice.
**[02:50] ---**
It started at last.
**[02:52] ---**
Yeah.
**[02:53] ---**
Our
**[02:55] ---**
and everyone's ball.
**[02:59] ---**
There's so much
enthusiasm in the theater.
**[03:03] ---**
Are you nervous?
**[03:05] ---**
A little...
**[03:09] ---**
I'm more happy than nervous.
**[03:16] ---**
After all, we finally get
to perform as New Gen.
**[03:21] ---**
- Mio...
- Mio-chan...
**[03:24] ---**
Handkerchief...
**[03:26] ---**
Sheesh...
**[03:30] ---**
Everyone.
**[03:31] ---**
The Cinderella Project
performance will start at 18:00.
**[03:36] ---**
Till then, please follow
your own schedules.
**[03:39] ---**
Right!
**[03:43] ---**
You don't need to say anything else?
**[03:57] ---**
For tonight's ball,
**[04:02] ---**
please smile and have a good time.
**[04:08] ---**
That's it?
**[04:12] ---**
Right!
**[04:13] ---**
I'm Suzuho-sun, and
I want to light up your smiles!
**[04:22] ---**
I can't think of puns to riff on that!
**[04:25] ---**
Grrrr!
**[04:27] ---**
I'll make you tingle with
the feelings of a wolf! Grrrr!
**[04:31] ---**
Grrrr!
**[04:34] ---**
I think we'll lose, nya...
**[04:36] ---**
Nana's not gonna lose!
**[04:38] ---**
I'm going too, nya!
**[04:41] ---**
Psychic spoon bending!
**[04:44] ---**
Good luck!
**[04:46] ---**
Cute me has something
better than that.
**[04:51] ---**
Sachiko-chan!
**[04:54] ---**
They're cute!
**[04:56] ---**
I'm glad I came!
**[04:58] ---**
Thank you for cooperating.
**[05:01] ---**
Yes, sir!
**[05:10] ---**
Good evening.
**[05:11] ---**
To think it'd be such a grand scale.
**[05:14] ---**
We were able to work
with many departments...
**[05:19] ---**
Your Project Krone too...
**[05:24] ---**
I value people who have talent.
**[05:27] ---**
I told you that before.
**[05:29] ---**
But I don't like your thinking.
**[05:35] ---**
Before, I called your
"Power of Smile" a fairy tale.
**[05:41] ---**
But I take it back.
**[05:43] ---**
It's not even a fairy tale.
**[05:46] ---**
What do you...
**[05:47] ---**
Let's say there's
one girl in a certain place.
**[05:51] ---**
An unlucky, ash-covered girl with no merit...
**[05:57] ---**
The girl yearns
**[05:59] ---**
for a lovely dress...
**[06:01] ---**
A glittering ball...
**[06:05] ---**
A kind prince to take her hand and climb
the stairs to a beautiful palace...
**[06:15] ---**
In a story, an objective
to aim for is essential.
**[06:20] ---**
A shining goal that everyone longs for.
**[06:25] ---**
That's exactly why the
palace is noble and beautiful,
**[06:30] ---**
and the people who are
there have to fit in, have to shine.
**[06:37] ---**
The way you try to protect even
those who've lost their shine
**[06:43] ---**
would eventually make the palace lose
its dignity and go out of fashion.
**[06:51] ---**
A girl aiming for the
palace wishes for something.
**[06:55] ---**
What that is
differs with each girl.
**[06:59] ---**
I think all of them are
precious and shine like stars.
**[07:08] ---**
Stars?
**[07:10] ---**
You mean you can
discover all those stars?
**[07:15] ---**
No.
**[07:17] ---**
If there are things I see that you
can't, the reverse also holds true.
**[07:25] ---**
You pointed out Shibuya-san and
Anastasia-san's other possibilities,
**[07:32] ---**
while I, trapped in the framework of
my department, never imagined them.
**[07:40] ---**
That inspired other members,
expanding their possibilities...
**[07:46] ---**
The shining increased.
**[07:49] ---**
Then
**[07:51] ---**
I thought maybe that was one possibility
for them, out of an infinite number.
**[08:01] ---**
Are you saying my ideal is
also no more than one possibility?
**[08:08] ---**
The most important thing is
whether they're smiling or not.
**[08:15] ---**
That's how I produce.
**[08:22] ---**
We're not on the same wavelength.
**[08:25] ---**
I focus on the castle.
**[08:28] ---**
Ash-covered dreams
are most important to you.
**[08:33] ---**
We're as far apart as ever.
**[08:41] ---**
Producer-san, it's almost time for
the Cinderella Project's performance.
**[08:47] ---**
Excuse me.
**[08:52] ---**
Are they going to go
beyond even our parallel lines?
**[08:57] ---**
Yes.
**[09:09] ---**
- Thanks!
- Take care of Rin!
**[09:12] ---**
Right!
**[09:13] ---**
- Shiburin...
- Rin-chan...
**[09:16] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:21] ---**
Yoo-hoo!
**[09:23] ---**
Mika-nee!
**[09:27] ---**
They couldn't be
more warmed up out there.
**[09:30] ---**
Yeah!
**[09:32] ---**
Miho-chan, see you soon.
**[09:35] ---**
Yeah.
**[09:37] ---**
Um...
**[09:41] ---**
I, Uzuki Shimamura, will do my best!
**[09:45] ---**
Yeah! I'll watch from here.
**[09:49] ---**
Rock, paper, scissors!
**[09:54] ---**
Ready? Right now,
we're not New Generations!
**[09:59] ---**
Then what are we?
**[10:02] ---**
New Generations reborn!
We're New New Generations!
**[10:07] ---**
- Isn't that a mouthful?
- Isn't that hard to say?
**[10:15] ---**
Shall we go then?
**[10:17] ---**
Yeah. With everything
we've had up to now.
**[10:22] ---**
Right!
**[10:24] ---**
See you soon!
**[10:29] ---**
Five seconds! Four, three...
**[10:32] ---**
Prosciutto e melone!
**[11:07] ---**
"WE MET"
**[11:14] ---**
"DRAWN TO THE LIGHT"
**[11:18] ---**
"STUMBLING"
**[11:21] ---**
"FALLING"
**[11:24] ---**
"EVEN LOSING OUR WAY"
**[11:33] ---**
"NOT STOPPING"
**[11:36] ---**
"LET'S HAVE AN ADVENTURE"
**[11:44] ---**
"WHAT ARE WE"
**[11:53] ---**
"WISHING FOR NOW?"
**[11:56] ---**
"SOMETHING WITHOUT FORM"
**[12:05] ---**
"ME, BELIEVING IN THE LIGHT"
**[12:26] ---**
Thank you!
**[12:43] ---**
Great
**[12:49] ---**
smiles.
**[12:53] ---**
Right!
**[13:03] ---**
Going, going, not gonna stop
**[13:07] ---**
Going, going, can't stop
**[13:12] ---**
So let's perform the same dreaming
**[13:19] ---**
Don't stop the music!
**[13:26] ---**
Last spurt, so let's spur each other on.
**[13:32] ---**
Right!
**[13:34] ---**
Cinderella Project...
**[13:37] ---**
Fight!
**[13:38] ---**
Yeah!
**[14:28] ---**
LET'S MOVE FORWARD
**[14:30] ---**
LET'S IMPROVE OURSELVES
**[15:52] ---**
You were watching from here, eh?
**[15:56] ---**
I thought it wouldn't be bad
**[15:59] ---**
to leave the palace and look up
at the stars once in a while.
**[16:26] ---**
CINDERELLA'S BALL
**[16:34] ---**
How are they? The new girls.
**[16:37] ---**
They're all right.
**[16:39] ---**
I'm sure these girls
will be able to shine too.
**[16:46] ---**
Like them...
**[16:50] ---**
Excuse me.
**[16:52] ---**
I brought the data.
**[16:55] ---**
You'll get this song
perfectly by the end of the day.
**[17:00] ---**
Right!
**[17:03] ---**
Fight! After this is over,
let's get something good to eat. Okay?
**[17:12] ---**
Could I get a strawberry parfait?
**[17:14] ---**
Yes!
**[17:17] ---**
You're tough, Minami-san.
**[17:20] ---**
After all, everyone's doing their
best now! I can't let them beat me!
**[17:27] ---**
Cut! Okay!
**[17:30] ---**
Good job!
**[17:32] ---**
Большое спасибо!
**[17:34] ---**
That was wonderful.
From the heart.
**[17:38] ---**
I
**[17:41] ---**
tried to reach
my voice out to everyone.
**[17:45] ---**
My name is Brunhilde,
wounded evil princess!
**[17:49] ---**
I respond to my
friend's voice, and now,
**[17:53] ---**
this fallen angel will awaken
as a true demon king!
**[17:57] ---**
Cool...
**[18:00] ---**
Friend, let us go together
to even higher heights!
**[18:07] ---**
Even when taping a show, sitting
next to Kanako-san is so soothing.
**[18:13] ---**
Do you ever become anxious yourself?
**[18:18] ---**
I decided to enjoy whatever work I do.
**[18:22] ---**
No matter how anxious I am!
**[18:24] ---**
I didn't know they'd be that high!
**[18:26] ---**
U-Um...
**[18:28] ---**
I'll go first!
**[18:33] ---**
When I'm scared, I think
there's scenery I can't see, so...
**[18:42] ---**
Are you okay?
**[18:44] ---**
Um...
**[18:45] ---**
We'll get through it somehow.
You're not doing it by yourselves.
**[18:52] ---**
We're ready!
**[18:56] ---**
Refreshing! Semi-carbonated!
**[19:01] ---**
Okay, good work!
**[19:05] ---**
You were in fine form
again today, Kirari-chan!
**[19:09] ---**
Where do you draw your
psychic power from?
**[19:14] ---**
Actually...
**[19:19] ---**
The source of my power
is all of us holding hands!
**[19:28] ---**
It's been busy lately,
but do you still see everyone?
**[19:33] ---**
Don't worry! I'm fine!
**[19:39] ---**
MIRIA-CHAN, FIGHT
**[19:43] ---**
Everyone! Hello!
**[19:46] ---**
We're gonna sing a lot
of songs for you today!
**[19:51] ---**
You ready?
**[19:53] ---**
- Let's go, Natsukichi!
- Okay, Dari! Let's rock them!
**[19:58] ---**
We'll do this our way!
**[20:01] ---**
What's our challenging team?
**[20:03] ---**
The Animal Team!
**[20:07] ---**
Everyone!
Let's do this with a smile, nya!
**[20:12] ---**
Did you deliver the data?
**[20:14] ---**
Yes, Executive Director.
**[20:17] ---**
Good work.
**[20:21] ---**
The garden shines with life.
**[20:23] ---**
The garden is our heart.
**[20:31] ---**
Good job on opening day!
**[20:39] ---**
Good job!
**[20:40] ---**
Director!
**[20:41] ---**
Thank you!
**[20:43] ---**
I wasn't sure about you at first,
but you did great, Honda.
**[20:52] ---**
It's because we've all improved.
**[20:54] ---**
Okay!
**[20:56] ---**
Thank you!
**[20:59] ---**
Rin, your spirits were high today.
**[21:01] ---**
Really?
**[21:02] ---**
Yeah. You had a nice expression.
**[21:05] ---**
I don't know...
**[21:09] ---**
Yeah. But you may be right.
**[21:12] ---**
It's because I'm having fun now.
**[21:16] ---**
What's the most precious
thing to you about your idol work?
**[21:21] ---**
Let's see...
**[21:23] ---**
I can't explain it well,
**[21:27] ---**
but I want to shine!
**[21:31] ---**
Even now, that feeling
is precious to me!
**[21:36] ---**
I can't wait.
**[21:38] ---**
We'll soon be able to see
the outcome of their adventures.
**[22:00] ---**
S-Sorry!
**[22:17] ---**
Maybe there really was magic.
**[22:39] ---**
Let's go forth with a smile!
**[22:41] ---**
Right!
**[22:43] ---**
Is there really magic?
**[22:48] ---**
What is magic?
We still don't know.
**[22:53] ---**
But let's go up these stairs...
**[22:57] ---**
...one at a time, without fear!
**[23:00] ---**
Warmth from the hand you're holding...
**[23:03] ---**
...spreads, supporting all of us!
**[23:18] ---**
We're dreaming.
**[23:21] ---**
We're living the dream.
**[23:24] ---**
We have faith in the dream.
**[23:30] ---**
We...
**[23:35] ---**
Hello! We're the Cinderella Girls!
**[23:45] ---**
Please, Cinderella♪
This dream can't end as just a dream
**[23:51] ---**
I've started to move
towards dazzling days
**[23:56] ---**
