[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.
