[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.
