[00:04] Yuuhi
    This is Yuhi...
[00:05] Yasumi
    ...and Yasumi's...
[00:06] Both
    ...High School Radio!
[00:08] Yuuhi
    Chance put us in the same class
    at the same high school,
[00:14] Yuuhi
    and on this show. We'll be bringing
     all that classroom atmosphere to you!
[00:18] Yasumi
    Ooh, Yu-chan,
[00:20] Yasumi
    you're getting so good
    at delivering that opener!
[00:22] Yuuhi
    Not at all!
[00:24] Yuuhi
    It's a challenge every time.
[00:26] Yuuhi
    What about you, Yacchan?
[00:27] Yuuhi
    Are you used to the radio yet?
[00:29] Yasumi
    Totally not!
[00:31] Yasumi
    I'm struggling because
     it still feels so weird.
[00:35] Yasumi
    It's hard to get used to.
[00:39] Yuuhi
    Well then, let's review.
[00:41] Yuuhi
    Yacchan and I are in the
     same class at the same school.
[00:46] Yasumi
    Yep!
[00:47] Yasumi
    Two voice actresses in the same class
    by pure coincidence!
[00:52] Yasumi
    Isn't that amazing?
[00:53] Yuuhi
    It really is.
[00:55] Yuuhi
    Gosh, Yacchan, it feel likes you and I
    were fated to be together.
[00:58] Yasumi
    It was destiny!

[01:03] Otome
    Welcome to Sakuranamiki Otome's It's Almost
     Like a Cherry Blossom Viewing.
[01:06] Otome**
    Let me introduce today's guest!
[01:09] Yasumi
    G-Good evening!
[01:12] Yasumi
    My name is Utatane Yasumi!
SIGN    #01 Yuhi and Yasumi Can't Keep It Hidden?
[01:32] Yumiko
    I mean, yeah, okay...
[01:37] Yumiko
    Yup, uh-huh.
[01:39] Yumiko
    That's Utatane Yasumi all right.
    She plays Marigold in Plastic Girls.
[01:43] Yumiko
    Kinda sad that they're not
    releasing more characters.
[01:48] Yumiko
    If it was Otome-neesan,
[01:50] Yumiko
    they'd make so many the screen would explode.
[01:56] Yumiko
    I want more name recognition...
[01:58] Yasumi
    Wow, this cookie is delicious!
[02:04] Yumiko
    I'm the idol voice actress Utatane Yasumi.
[02:07] Yumiko
    I'm with Choco Brownie and I've been
    in the biz three years.
[02:13] Yumiko
    That's my public face.
[02:20] Yumiko
    And this is the other me.
[02:23] Yumiko
    Real name: Sato Yumiko.
[02:25] Yumiko
    As you can see, I'm a gyaru.
[02:29] Yumiko
    When I go into public for work,
[02:31] Yumiko
    I hide this side of myself.
[02:34] Yumiko
    Because what people want from idol
    voice actresses is innocence and purity.
[02:39] Yumiko
    And even though I pretend to be
    this character I'm not,
[02:42] Yumiko
    barely anyone knows Utatane Yasumi.
[02:45] Yumiko
    I keep bombing auditions, too.
[02:47] Yumiko
    Honestly, I'm in a bad way.
[02:50] Wakana
    Good morning!
[02:52] Yumiko
    Morning, Wakana.
[02:54] Yumiko
    You sure are full of energy this early.
[02:57] Wakana
    What's up, Yumiko?
[02:59] Wakana
    You seem kinda down.
[03:00] Yumiko
    Yeah, well, a little.
[03:03] Wakana
    There, there. Why not drink this, then?
[03:10] Yumiko
    It's good.
[03:12] Yumiko
    Thanks!
[03:13] Wakana
    Don't sweat it. At times like this,
[03:15] Wakana
    sweet stuff is the best cure.
[03:18] Yumiko
    Other than my family and teachers,
[03:20] Yumiko
    nobody knows I'm a voice actress.
[03:23] Yumiko
    My manager also insisted
    that I never tell a soul.
[03:29] Wakana
    Wassup?
[03:30] Yumiko
    Nothing. Just thinking
     you look cute again today.
[03:34] Wakana
    Wow, really?
[03:36] Wakana
    I was actually thinking the same thing!
[03:40] Wakana
    Hey, Kimura, who's that?
[03:43] Wakana
    She's cute.
[03:44] Kimura
    Uh, ah...
[03:46] Kimura
    C-C-Cute? I, uh...
[03:50] Wakana
    Is she an idol?
[03:52] Wakana
    Yumiko, do you know her?
[03:58] Yumiko
    Yugure Yuhi...
[04:03] Kimura
    That's right!
[04:03] Kimura
    Her name is Yugure Yuhi!
[04:05] Kimura
    Aka "Yuhime"!
[04:06] Kimura
    Only her second year, she's a real rising star
     in the voice actress world!
[04:10] Kimura
    I prefer girls like her who
    are just getting started
[04:12] Kimura
    rather than major voice actresses
    like Sakuranamiki Otome!
[04:15] Kimura
    I'm not the kind of fan to jump in
    after they're popular!
[04:15] Wakana
    Man, listen to you go!
[04:17] Kimura
    I mean...
[04:21] Wakana
    Say, Kimura, can I see that for a sec?
[04:23] Wakana
    I want a closer look.
[04:25] Wakana
    Sorry...
[04:31] Wakana
    I'm so sorry!
[04:32] Wakana
    I wonder if that will stain...
[04:34] Wakana
    I'm really super sorry.
[04:36] Wakana
    Um, what's your name again?
[04:40] Chika
    Watanabe. Watanabe Chika.
[04:48] Yumiko
    Watanabe Chika.
[04:50] Yumiko
    She's real plain girl.
    The kind that makes you go,
[04:53] Yumiko
    "Oh, yeah, I guess she's in our class."
[04:56] Yumiko
    She's always alone.
    I've never even seen her talk to anyone.
[05:03] Wakana
    Watanabe-san, I'm sorry.
    I'll clean this up right now.
[05:10] Wakana
    Watanabe-san?
[05:17] Yumiko
    Hey!
[05:20] Yumiko
    Hold it just a minute!
[05:26] Yumiko
    I know that was totally Wakana's fault.
[05:29] Yumiko
    But it's not cool to cop an attitude
    when someone's apologizing.
[05:34] Chika
    It's annoying.
[05:35] Yumiko
    Huh?
[05:36] Chika
    I don't care if she's
     a voice actress or whatever.
[05:38] Chika
    It's so dumb to get worked up over.
[05:41] Chika
    I don't even get what's so exciting about her.
[05:44] Yumiko
    What are you talking about?
[05:47] Chika
    She's supposed to be a voice actress, but she
     sings, dances, and pretends to be an idol.
[05:55] Chika
    Either way, it's annoying to watch.
[05:58] Chika
    That's all.
[06:02] Yumiko
    I won't take that when you
    don't know the half of it.
[06:05] Yumiko
    Yugure Yuhi is cute!
[06:08] Yumiko
    Yeah, her looks are also a selling point,
[06:10] Yumiko
    but what's so wrong with that?!
[06:12] Yumiko
    Just so you know,
    she has more than just looks!
[06:15] Yumiko
    Yugure Yuhi's acting and singing
     are both top notch,
[06:18] Yumiko
    and she's pretty to boot.
    That's why she's so popular!
[06:21] Yumiko
    You got that?
[06:22] Chika
    Wh-What do you want?
[06:25] Chika
    You're one to talk when
     you don't even know the half of it!
[06:35] Yumiko
    God, what's her problem?
[06:38] Yumiko
    I'd rather never deal with her again.
[06:48] Yumiko
    Oh, Kagasaki-san, thanks for calling.
[06:51] Kagasaki
    Yumiko, you landed your next job.
[06:55] Yumiko
    Which role did I get?
[06:57] Kagasaki
    Well, it's not an anime...
[07:02] Yumiko
    A radio show?

    I'm Yugure Yuhi,

[07:34] Yumiko
    I'm falling further and further behind.
[07:37] Yumiko
    I wonder if we'll even mesh...
[07:41] Yumiko
    Probably not.

    Sorry to call you here all of a sudden.
[07:47] Oote
    To tell you the truth,
[07:48] Oote

[08:06] Yumiko

[08:09] Oote
    Right.
[08:10] Oote
    This radio show actually has a secret.
[08:13] Oote
    There's something big
    that you two have in common.
[08:16] Yumiko
    What's that?
[08:18] Oote
    Man, when I found out about it,
    it really knocked me off my feet!
[08:22] Oote
    So much that I immediately

    It's nice to meet... you...
[08:50] Chika
    Huh?
[08:51] Yumiko
    Wh-What are you doing here?!
[08:55] Chika
    That's my line!

    What's a person like you doing here?!

    Ah, I see, so the real yous

[09:08] Oote
    It's true!
[09:09] Oote
    Utatane Yasumi and Yugure Yuhi
     are classmates!
[09:13] Oote
    Not only are you both high schoolers,
    you attend the same school!
[09:16] Oote
    A voice actress radio show
    with that premise is going to be a hit!
[09:20] Yumiko
    S-So you're Yugure Yuhi,
    and you're my radio show partner?
[09:27] Chika
    You're Utatane Yasumi,
    who I'll be working with on this project?
[09:33] txt
    Starring: Yugure Yuhi (Blue Crown)
    Utatane Yasumi (Choco Brownie)
[09:55] Yumiko
    Are you really the Yugure Yuhi?
[09:58] Yumiko
    My image of you is so far
    removed from the real thing.
[10:01] Chika
    You're also a completely different person.
[10:04] Chika
    I can't believe you're Utatane Yasumi.
[10:08] Chika
    Marigold was my favorite 
    in Plastic Girls, too.
[10:12] Chika
    I can't believe someone
    so unrefined played her.
[10:16] Yumiko
    You know, I used to like 
    Looking at My Fingertips.
[10:22] Yumiko
    But finding out someone so
    negative played such a pure heroine
[10:26] Yumiko
    is enough to disillusion me.
[10:28] Chika
    By that logic,
[10:30] Chika
    you could never ever play a pure heroine!
[10:34] Yumiko
    Hang on! Aren't you my kohai?
[10:36] Yumiko
    I've been doing this for three years,
    and you've only been in the game two.
[10:40] Yumiko
    Want me to teach you how
     to talk to your senpai properly?
[10:43] Chika
    This is only my second year voice acting,
[10:46] Chika
    but I was in a theater troupe first,
[10:48] Chika
    making me a veteran of four years.
[10:50] Chika
    So I'll turn that right back at you,
    my little kohai.
[10:56] Asaka
    Heya, good morning.
[11:00] Asaka
    Sorry for being late, you two.
[11:02] Yumiko
    Asaka-chan!
[11:04] Asaka
    It's been a while since we worked
    together on a show, Yasumi-chan.
[11:07] Asaka
    You should come over to cook again.
[11:10] Yumiko
    I don't mind, but your house is so dirty.
[11:13] Yumiko
    Call me once the place is decent.
[11:16] Asaka
    But then I'll never get you over!
[11:19] Asaka
    Well, let's get started.
[11:20] Asaka
    I'm Asaka Mirei, and I've been appointed
    as the writer for this show.
[11:26] Chika
    It's nice to meet you. I look
    forward to working with you.
[11:31] Asaka
    Here's the script.
[11:33] Asaka
    For the first episode,
     we'll do something different.
[11:37] Asaka
    "Let's get to know each other!
    One question, one answer!"
[11:42] Asaka
    The first question is your favorite anime.
[11:46] Asaka
    Take it away, Yasumi-chan.
[11:47] Yumiko
    Witchy Pritia!
[11:50] Yumiko
    I like it so much I dream about being in it!
[11:53] Chika
    Sato as Pritia?
[11:56] Chika
    That would mean hell froze over.
[11:58] Yumiko
    No one asked you!
[12:00] Yumiko
    What about you, Watanabe?
[12:01] Yumiko
    I bet you must like some
    impressive shows, eh?
[12:08] Chika
    Mechas and robots...
[12:10] Chika
    I basically like everything
    directed by Kamishiro-san.
[12:14] Chika
    Iron Goldra and stuff.
[12:15] Yumiko
    Sheesh, that's so left field
    that it makes you more likable.
[12:20] Yumiko
    Kinda annoying.
[12:21] Chika
    That's why I don't talk about it.
[12:24] Chika
    People will say I'm phony.
[12:25] Asaka
    Great, keep it going just like that.
[12:30] Asaka
    Yuhi-chan, what do you like about the show?
[12:35] Chika
    Well,
[12:36] Chika
    if I had to pick one thing about Iron Goldra,
[12:40] Chika
    it would be the intricacy
    of the mech designs!
[12:45] Chika
    Twilight, the unit that the main
    character pilots until episode 4,
[12:48] Chika
    is so beautiful that I sigh when I see it.
[12:50] Chika
    For starters, the shape of the engine...
[12:51] Yumiko
    And so Voice Actor Radio began
    after destiny brought us together.

[13:12] Yuuhi
    Huh? Is something wrong?
[13:16] Yasumi
    Looks like we've gotten a message.
[13:18] Yuuhi
    Um, a big announcement?
[13:21] Yasumi
    I wonder what it is!
[13:23] Yasumi
    Maybe a CD release of our show?
[13:26] Yuuhi
    It's too soon for that!

    We've only had three episodes so far.
[13:32] Yasumi

[13:34] Yasumi
    Hey, Yu-chan!
[13:36] Yuuhi
    Oh, I'm sorry.
[13:38] Yuuhi
    I was just a bit surprised.
[13:40] Yasumi
    What is it, Yu-chan?
[13:42] Yasumi
    Is it really something that incredible?
[13:45] Yuuhi
    W-Well, I'll read it.
[13:48] Yuuhi
    C-Can you imagine?
[13:50] Yuuhi
    "Yuhi and Yasumi's High School Radio 
    will be doing a public recording!"
[13:57] Yasumi
    Huh?
[14:00] Chika
    I haven't heard about this.
[14:02] Chika
    Why didn't you tell me up front
[14:04] Chika
    that we'd be doing a public recording?
[14:07] Asaka
    It's not so uncommon to have surprise
    announcements about the project
[14:10] Asaka
    during a recording session.
[14:13] Chika
    We're done recording for today, right?
[14:16] Chika
    If you'll excuse me...
[14:21] Asaka
    What's up with Yuhi-chan?
[14:24] Yumiko
    Don't know.
[14:25] Yumiko
    I have no clue.
[14:28] Yumiko
    I can't tell what she's thinking at all.
[14:30] Asaka
    Hey, what's Yuhi-chan like at school?
[14:36] Yumiko
    Huh?
[14:38] Yumiko
    I wonder.
[14:39] Yumiko
    She doesn't talk at all and sits
     quietly in the corner of the classroom.
[14:44] Yumiko
    Gloomy, basically.
[14:46] Asaka
    You know, the conversations
    you have while recording
[14:49] Asaka
    just don't really feel
    like you're classmates.
[14:52] Asaka
    I'm missing something there.
[14:55] Asaka
    I won't go as far
    as to tell you to be friends.
[14:59] Asaka
    But maybe you could try getting
    to know your partner a little bit more.
[15:11] Wakana
    Finally, lunch break!
[15:14] Wakana
    I'm starving.
[15:16] Wakana
    What's up, Yumiko?
[15:18] Yumiko
    Sorry, Wakana. I gotta go do something.
[15:33] Chika
    Oh, it's you.
[15:36] Yumiko
    Normally you don't care what people think,
[15:38] Yumiko
    but I guess even you don't want
    to be seen eating by yourself.
[15:41] Chika
    Correct.
[15:42] Chika
    Laugh if you want.
[15:45] Yumiko
    If I laughed now,
[15:47] Yumiko
    it would only start a discussion
    about my place in voice acting.
[15:50] Yumiko
    Maybe I should review my
    scripts at school too...
[15:53] Chika
    You have friends,
     so you don't have to do that.
[15:57] Chika
    I'm only using my free time this way
    because I have nothing better to do at school.
[16:02] Chika
    I think it's best if you can manage
     to be both a voice actress
[16:05] Chika
    and a regular student at the same time.
[16:15] Chika
    So, why did you come all the way out here?
[16:18] Yumiko
    Well, I thought I should get
    to know you a bit better.
[16:23] Yumiko
    You know, our show doesn't really feel
    like two classmates talking, right?
[16:27] Chika
    Asaka-san said that, right?
[16:31] Chika
    Well, I suppose it could be good
    to talk about today on the show.
[16:36] Yumiko
    You mean how you eat lunch by yourself?
[16:40] Chika
    Of course not.
[16:42] Chika
    You're so dumb.
[16:44] Chika
    I mean talking about eating together.

[17:27] Chika
    Yeah, so?!
[17:28] Chika
    Trying to flaunt your experience?!
[17:31] Chika
    I've said it before, but when it
    comes to acting, I'm your senpai.
[17:37] Yumiko
    And I'll say it again,
[17:39] Yumiko
    but in voice work, I'm your senpai.
[17:42] Yumiko
    Especially being an idol voice actress.
[17:44] Yumiko
    I have more experience.
[17:47] Yumiko
    If something's got you worried,
    try talking it out.
[17:49] Chika
    I really hate how you are.
[17:56] Chika
    I don't understand the
    appeal of Yugure Yuhi.
[18:01] Yumiko
    What?
[18:02] Chika
    I can't sing and I don't show off my acting,
[18:07] Chika
    so I don't see how I can have any value.
[18:09] Yumiko
    Wait, hold the phone.
[18:10] Yumiko
    What about your usual radio show?
[18:13] Chika
    I know the hook.
[18:16] Chika
    I've been giving the fans a fake
    version of me all this time.
[18:20] Chika
    I hate this character.
[18:22] Chika
    This completely fake idol
    voice actress Yugure Yuhi...
[18:27] Chika
    But she's what the audience wants.
[18:30] Chika
    I don't know what I'm supposed to do.
[18:37] Yumiko
    Watanabe.
[18:41] Yumiko
    What you're worried about...
[18:44] Yumiko
    is totally pointless.
[18:47] Chika
    Point—
[18:49] Chika
    There you go!
[18:50] Chika
    I really hate how you are!
[18:52] Yumiko
    It doesn't matter.
[18:54] Yumiko
    It doesn't matter to the audience that
    you might have doubts about yourself.
[18:59] Yumiko
    You're a pro, aren't you?
[19:01] Yumiko
    As a pro, isn't it enough to just worry
    about your audience going home thinking,
[19:07] Yumiko
    "Ah, Yuhime was amazing today.
    I had so much fun"?
[19:12] Yumiko
    And if you're really worried, well,
    then watch me standing next to you.
[19:21] Yumiko
    When you realize you're not alone,
    things should get easier.
[19:25] Yumiko
    Though maybe I'm not reliable enough for ya!

[19:35] Yumiko
    Look at that, Watanabe.
[19:37] Yumiko
    What could you be worried about
     with this friendly audience here?
[19:43] Chika
    E-Everything's fine.
[19:45] Chika
    Just like you said.
[19:47] Chika
    T-Totally cool.
[19:49] Yumiko
    Ah, shoot.
[19:53] Yumiko
    Here goes nothing.
[20:04] Chika
    What was that for?
[20:06] Yumiko
    Look, Watanabe.
[20:08] Yumiko
    The audience is not
    something to be afraid of.
[20:10] Yumiko
    They're who gives you courage.
[20:14] Yasumi
    Hello, everyone!
[20:16] Yasumi
    Right off the bat,
[20:18] Yasumi
    Yu-chan was so nervous that she tripped!
[20:22] Yasumi
    Everybody, please cheer her on!
[20:26] Fan1
    Yuhime, you don't have to be nervous!
[20:29] Fan2
    Take your time!
[20:29] Fan3
    That looked like it hurt. Are you okay?
[20:35] Yuuhi
    Hello, everyone!
[20:37] Yuuhi
    Thank you so much.
[20:39] Yuuhi
    I was nervous,
[20:41] Yuuhi
    but thanks to you all,
[20:42] Yuuhi
    I feel much more calm!
[20:44] Yasumi
    And with that, we'll kick off
[20:46] Yasumi
    this public recording of 
    Yuhi and Yasumi's High School Radio!
[20:51] Yuuhi
    Thanks for tuning in today!
[22:37] Yumiko
    What's wrong?
[22:40] Yumiko
    I guess the event's success
    left her overcome with emotion.
[22:42] Yumiko
    So she does have a cute side to her.
[22:45] Chika
    You're with Choco Brownie, right?
[22:49] Yumiko
    Huh? Yeah, why?
[22:52] Chika
    I'll be lodging an official
    complaint via Blue Crown.
[22:54] Chika
    They ought to know someone working for them
    used violence to embarrass our talent!
[23:00] Yumiko
    Hold on, hold on!
[23:01] Yumiko
    How did it come to this?
[23:05] Yumiko
    Listen, Watanabe...
[23:07] Chika
    I'm telling you never to do that again.
[23:11] Chika
    I'll make sure you won't need to!
[23:22] Yumiko
    Yu-chan, did you say thank you?
[23:25] Chika
    Thank you very much! You saved me!

    Good morning!
[00:21] Yasumi
    "Just like you two, I'm also a student.
[00:24] Yasumi
    Lately I've really been enjoying grabbing
    a snack on my way home from school.
[00:29] Yasumi
    Do you two do that as well?"
[00:31] Yasumi
    Welp, what about you, Yu-chan?
[00:34] Yuhi
    Hmm, let me think...
[00:37] Yuhi
    I don't really think I do.
[00:39] Yuhi
    How about you, Yacchan?
[00:41] Yuhi
    Do you get a snack on the way home?
[00:42] Yasumi
    I actually do pretty often!
[00:44] Yasumi
    Like at the butcher shop.
[00:46] Yasumi
    Their croquettes are fantastic,
[00:48] Yasumi
    so I like to grab one as I walk home.
[00:51] Yuhi
    Did you say croquettes?
[00:53] Yuhi
    And you're buying them at the butcher shop?
[00:55] Yumiko
    Morning, Mom.
[00:56] Yuhi
    Huh? Yacchan, didn't you just say
    you like to go to the butcher?
[00:58] Yumiko
    So, how's my curry?
[01:00] Yuhi
    Did I mishear you?
[01:00] Yumiko
    I tried to make it more like Grandma's.
[01:02] Yasumi
    Nope! You heard right, for sure.
[01:05] Yasumi
    I'm talking about buying
    croquettes at the butcher shop.
[01:08] Yuhi
    But butcher shops don't sell croquettes...
[01:11] Yumiko
    Huh?
[01:13] Yuhi
    Huh?
[01:15] Yumiko

    I had to make the customers

[03:12] Mom
    Hey, you remember Yamaguchi-san?

[03:35] Mom
    You should drop by sometime.
[03:37] Yumiko
    Sure thing.
[03:39] Yumiko
    My mom isn't opposed to me doing voice work.
[03:43] Yumiko
    On the contrary, she supports me
    and says I should live my own life.
[03:47] Yumiko
    She knows all too well our time
    could be up any moment.
[03:50] Mom
    Say, that Yu-chan girl is a riot.
[03:54] Mom
    Especially that bit where she said
    butcher shops don't sell croquettes!
[03:58] Mom
    That had me in stitches.
[04:01] Yumiko
    Yeah, that wasn't a gag.
[04:05] (Flashback) Yasumi
    Er, Yu-chan...
[04:07] (Flashback) Yasumi
    There are plenty of butcher shops
    that sell croquettes.
[04:11] (Flashback) Yuhi
    What? You must be joking.
[04:14] (Flashback) Yuhi
    Surely you're going to some kind
    of specialty shop.
[04:17] (Flashback) Yasumi
    No, nothing like that.
[04:19] (Flashback) Yasumi
    You with me?
[04:20] (Flashback) Asaka
    They do usually sell them, yeah.
[04:22] (Flashback) Yasumi
    See?
[04:24] (Flashback) Yuhi
    You're pulling my leg.
[04:25] (Flashback) Yasumi
    We're not!

    Shall we go together?
[04:28] (Flashback) Yasumi
    Let's do it after school!
[04:31] (Flashback) Yuhi
    What? They really sell them?
[04:34] (Flashback) Yuhi
    But they're butcher shops...
[04:36] (Flashback) Yuhi
    Why do they have croquettes?
[04:38] (Flashback) Yasumi
    Now that I don't know the answer to either.
[04:43] (Flashback) Ote
    That's a wrap!
[04:49] (Flashback) Chika
    Hey.
[04:51] (Flashback) Chika
    Can you stop trying to be weirdly superior?
[04:53] (Flashback) Chika
    I can't believe you'd mock someone
    for not knowing something so obscure.
[04:58] (Flashback) Chika
    I despise that about you.
[05:01] (Flashback) Yumiko
    Huh? What are you talking about?
[05:03] (Flashback) Asaka
    I think she's talking about the croquettes.
[05:06] (Flashback) Yumiko
    Oh, that?
[05:09] (Flashback) Chika
    I mean, it's weird for a butcher shop
    to be selling fried food!
[05:13] (Flashback) Chika
    I bet our audience had no idea either.
[05:17] (Flashback) Yumiko
    Hey, you guys knew, right?
[05:20] (Flashback) Ote
    Yeah, they usually have them.
[05:25] (Flashback) Asaka
    E-Er, I mean, I get it, though.
[05:28] (Flashback) Asaka
    I agree it's odd for butcher shops
    to serve fried food,
[05:31] (Flashback) Asaka
    so it's not weird not to know.
[05:34] (Flashback) Yumiko
    Ha, you clueless dork.
[05:37] (Flashback) Chika
    I'm going home!
[05:39] (Flashback) Chika

[05:51] Mom
    I'll make sure to tune in.
[05:53] Mom
    I'll even send in letters!
[05:56] Yumiko
    Seriously, please don't.

    Okay, so why am I getting dragged along?

    Croquettes.

    Shall we go together?
[06:19] (Flashback) Yasumi
    Let's do it after school!
[06:21] Yumiko
    Oh, I wasn't being serious about that.
[06:25] Yumiko
    Or are you just craving croquettes
    or something?
[06:28] Chika
    No.
[06:30] Chika
    I simply feel compelled to go
    because we said we would on the show.
[06:34] Yumiko
    You're so conscientious.
[06:37] Chika
    When we're working,
[06:39] Chika
    we're very different

[06:42] Yumiko
    Totally different, really.
[06:43] Yumiko
    Nothing but lies on lies.
[06:47] Chika
    Yes, lies upon lies.
[06:50] Chika
    So I'd like to at least try
    to reduce the amount of lying.

[07:31] Yumiko
    Fresh out of the fryer.
[07:33] Chika
    It's truly delicious.
[07:35] Chika

    Oh, good idea.

    With some finely chopped cabbage,

[07:51] Yumiko
    You can't just have croquettes.
[07:55] Chika
    No, I mean a croquette with rice.
[07:58] Yumiko
    Croquettes and rice?
[08:00] Yumiko
    Watanabe, is that how you eat?
[08:03] Yumiko
    Is that why your boobs aren't developing?
[08:06] Chika
    L-Leave my breasts out of this!
[08:10] Yumiko
    Does that mean you have to cook for yourself?
[08:14] Chika
    Mostly, yes. My mother works until late.
[08:19] Chika
    My father isn't around.
[08:21] Chika
    They got divorced when I was little.
[08:25] Yumiko

[09:00] Kagasaki
    Yumiko, you got a new gig.
[09:03] Yumiko
    Yay!
[09:04] Yumiko
    Which one?
[09:05] Yumiko
    Which role did I get?
[09:07] Kagasaki
    Hmm, from a TV anime show
    scheduled to air this fall.
[09:12] Kagasaki
    Of the three sisters in Under the Purple Sky,
[09:14] Kagasaki
    you got the third sister, Saionji Aki.
[09:17] Yumiko
    Wait, for real?!
[09:18] Yumiko
    She's practically the lead!
[09:20] Kagasaki
    And as we initially discussed,
[09:21] Kagasaki
    the opening theme will be performed
    by a group composed of the main cast.
[09:26] Kagasaki
    There will be events and specials as well.
[09:28] Kagasaki
    So keep that in mind, please.
[09:30] Yumiko
    Okay.
[09:31] Yumiko
    Oh, right, who are the other two going to be?
[09:36] Kagasaki
    The main character, Saionji Haru,
    will be played by Sakuranamiki Otome.
[09:40] Yumiko
    No way!
[09:44] Yumiko
    I get to work with Otome-neesan again!
[09:46] Yumiko
    I'm so happy!
[09:48] Kagasaki
    The second oldest sister, Saionji Natsu,
    will be played by Yugure Yuhi.
[09:53] Kagasaki
    What's wrong?
[09:55] Yumiko
    Kagasaki-san...
[09:57] Yumiko
    Was I chosen for this role for my talent?
[10:00] Kagasaki
    Since you have doubts,
[10:03] Kagasaki
    I guess this was already weighing on you.
[10:06] Kagasaki
    You and Sakuranamiki friends outside of work,
[10:09] Kagasaki
    and you have a radio show with Yugure.
[10:12] Kagasaki
    Fans do like those kinds of relationships.
[10:15] Kagasaki
    Though it could also be that they
    chose an idol voice actress
[10:19] Kagasaki
    who'd be on the same level as the other two.
[10:22] Kagasaki
    In terms of looks,
    you give them a run for their money.
[10:25] Yumiko
    What the hell?
[10:27] Yumiko
    Just because my looks aren't half bad...
[10:29] Yumiko
    Because I'm friends with Otome-neesan...
[10:31] Yumiko
    Because I do a radio show with Watanabe...
[10:34] Yumiko
    I've finally landed a big role,
    so why do I have to feel like this?
[10:40] Yumiko
    But even so...
[10:44] Yumiko
    Work is work.
[10:45] Yumiko
    I'll break out with this and have it made!
[10:49] Kagasaki
    You're a good kid.
[10:51] Kagasaki
    The release event for the
    opening song is already set.
[10:54] Kagasaki
    They've even got a venue for it.
[10:56] Yumiko
    What? A release event?
[10:58] Kagasaki
    It's a pretty big place,
[11:00] Kagasaki
    but with Sakuranamiki, they'll fill it.
[11:03] Kagasaki
    Regardless of current standing,
[11:04] Kagasaki
    you're the one who stands to gain
    the most from joining this group.
[11:08] Kagasaki
    Get out there and eat them up.
[11:11] Yumiko
    Yeah, I'll do my best.
[11:13] Kagasaki
    On the flip side,
[11:14] Kagasaki
    if you don't make it big now,
[11:16] Kagasaki
    you'll be in trouble.
[11:18] Kagasaki

[13:29] Yumiko
    I have mixed feelings, personally.
[13:32] Yumiko
    I mean, this plain Jane for an older sister?
[13:35] Chika
    My, it's rare for us to feel the same way.
[13:38] Chika
    I don't care to have you
    as a younger sister either.
[13:41] Yumiko
    You little...
[13:44] Chika
    Haru-chan! Onee-chan!
    You're always like this!
[13:48] Chika
    And every single time, you just laugh it off!
[13:51] Chika
    You take everything that's good!
[13:53] Chika
    And you leave me stuck
    with all the terrible leftovers!
[13:57] Chika
    I'm so done...
[13:59] Chika
    Why do you have to be my older sister?
[14:02] Otome
    Why, indeed...
[14:05] Otome
    Why was I born the older sister?
[14:15] Woman
    Good work.
[14:17] All
    Good work!
[14:19] Otome
    Good work!
[14:21] Otome
    Sorry, I'm tight on time, so I'll be going!
[14:26] Chika
    That was some good acting.
[14:29] Yumiko
    Oh, Otome-neesan?
[14:31] Yumiko
    Yeah, she's great, huh?
[14:34] Yumiko
    She's just amazing.
[14:36] Yumiko
    I'm not as good as she is.
[14:39] Yumiko
    I wish I could put on a performance like
    Otome-neesan instead of just fake crying.
[14:43] Yumiko
    Or like Watanabe...
[14:47] Yumiko
    Man, I was pretty psyched
    about having a big role again.
[14:52] Yumiko
    But my performance was totally mid.
[14:56] Chika
    Sato.
[14:58] Chika
    I genuinely hate that about you.
[15:02] Yumiko
    Huh?
[15:09] Chika
    I was saying that your acting was good.
[15:16] Yumiko
    Sorry, could you repeat that?
[15:19] Chika
    I'll never say it again.
[15:24] Yumiko
    Pretty please, Onee-chan!
[15:27] Chika
    Cut that out.
[15:28] Yumiko
    I don't want to lose to Watanabe.

    Besides, I think it's amazing
    to get so many people fired up.

    First things first, I owe you all an apology.
[20:19] Yumiko
    It's fine. I'm okay.
[20:22] Yumiko
    Right now, I'm dancing with the Yugure Yuhi.
[20:29] Yumiko

[20:32] Yumiko
    This is a great concert.
[20:33] Yumiko
    The crowd is definitely amped.

[20:57] Yumiko
    "Man, I came to here today to hear
    Sakuranamiki Otome."
[21:05] Chika
    Sato... I'm sorry for dragging you into that.
[21:09] Chika
    I talked a big game,
    wheedled you, and look how I did.
[21:15] Chika
    I could die from the embarrassment.
[21:18] Yumiko
    I have to apologize, too.
[21:21] Yumiko
    I wasn't good enough.
[21:22] Yumiko
    Of course, you weren't good enough either.
[21:27] Chika
    Please don't apologize.
[21:30] Yumiko
    I want to become an amazing voice
    actress like Otome-neesan.
[21:35] Yumiko
    No, even more amazing than she is.
[21:38] Yumiko
    One day...

    I'll work really, really hard

[02:28] Yasumi
    Well, not now, since it's summer break.
[02:31] Yuhi

    I guess it goes without saying
    that your family's loaded.
[03:16] Yumiko

[03:20] Chika
    She's a lawyer.
[03:21] Yumiko

    You're too worked up, though.
[03:56] Yumiko
    I'm glad I made this...
[03:59] Yumiko
    Oh, yeah.
[04:01] Yumiko
    There's some for your mom too,
    so make sure you let her know.
[04:04] Yumiko
    It's in the fridge.
[04:06] Chika
    You went that far?
[04:09] Yumiko
    It's really not a big deal.
[04:12] Yumiko
    I just made it with ours.
[04:14] Yumiko
    And you're letting me stay over.
[04:28] Yumiko
    How did we wind up like this?
[04:30] Chika
    People do things together naked.
[04:33] Chika
    Voice actresses take baths together sometimes.
[04:36] Chika
    They talk about it on the radio
    every now and then.
[04:39] Yumiko
    When they do it, it's at a public bath,
    not someone's house!
[04:43] Yumiko
    Being this close is definitely weird.
[04:45] Yumiko
    Even in a yuri context,
[04:47] Yumiko
    this would be heavy-handed
    enough to turn people off!
[04:51] Chika
    You don't have to raise
    your voice like that.
[04:53] Chika
    I'm just teasing you a little.
[05:00] Yumiko
    Hey.
[05:01] Chika
    Now this is strange.
[05:03] Chika
    I can hear your voice, but I can't see you.
[05:07] Yumiko
    You're cruising for a bruising...
[05:09] Chika
    It's pretty nice.
[05:11] Chika
    I don't have to look at you,
[05:13] Chika
    and my back has a soft resting spot.
[05:15] Yumiko
    And you realize I'm totally getting
    the short end of the stick?
[05:19] Chika
    Y-You poked my side!
[05:22] Chika
    Disgusting.
[05:23] Yumiko
    Getting into the bath
    together was way worse.
[05:26] Chika
    Like I said...
[05:34] Yumiko
    Can you stop staring at my boobs?
[05:37] Chika
    I apologize.
[05:38] Chika
    They're so impressive that
    I couldn't help but look.
[05:42] Chika
    I meant no harm. Please forgive me.
[05:45] Yumiko
    You act way different when
    you're talking to my breasts.
[05:49] Yumiko
    It's not like they're huge or anything.
[05:52] Yumiko
    I guess they might seem pretty big to you.
[05:57] Chika
    True, mine can't compare at all.
[06:02] Yumiko
    If you're that curious, you can touch them.
[06:05] Chika
    I'd love to!
[06:07] Yumiko
    She would...?
[06:09] Chika
    I'm grateful, Sato.
[06:11] Chika
    I had no idea you were this gracious.
[06:14] Yumiko
    Wait, what?
[06:16] Yumiko
    Does this mean I actually have to let her?
[06:19] Chika
    Could you do me a favor and lift
    your upper body out of the water?
[06:23] Chika
    I'd like to make the most of this
    and touch them directly.
[06:26] Yumiko
    Huh? Uh, okay.
[06:38] Chika
    I see.
[06:39] Chika
    So this is what they feel like.
[06:44] Yumiko
    What the hell?
[06:45] Yumiko
    Why am I getting felt up?
[06:53] Chika
    Thank you. I am satisfied.
[06:55] Chika
    Truly, I appreciate it.
[06:57] Yumiko
    Uh... sure.
[06:59] Chika
    Those are some excellent breasts.
[07:01] Chika
    Not only are they big,
[07:02] Chika
    they're also wonderfully firm and shapely.
[07:06] Chika
    I give them full marks.
[07:08] Yumiko
    Stop grading other people's boobs.
[07:12] Chika
    You're one of those people, Sato.
[07:14] Chika
    You have big breasts, and yet your hips are
    slim and you've got a nice waist.
[07:18] Chika
    Your butt is nicely sculpted, too.
[07:20] Chika
    On body alone, you get a perfect score.
[07:22] Yumiko
    Now you're just being insulting.
[07:24] Yumiko
    I oughta pop you.
[07:25] Chika
    It was a compliment.

    What is it, Yu-chan?
[08:09] Yuhi
    What made you want
    to become a voice actress?
[08:13] Yumiko
    Where's this coming from?
[08:14] Chika
    I had to answer that question
    for a magazine interview.
[08:18] Yumiko
    Oh.
[08:19] Yumiko
    I've mentioned this before,
[08:21] Yumiko
    but I really liked a show 
    called Witchy Pritia.
[08:25] Yumiko
    Ever since I was little,
[08:26] Yumiko
    my mom and grandma haven't
    been at home a lot because of work.
[08:30] Yumiko
    I used to spend the time by myself 
    watching recordings of Pritia.
[08:34] Yumiko
    That's when I became fascinated
     with this side of things.
[08:38] Yumiko
    I wanted to become Pritia.
[08:40] Yumiko
    What about you, Watanabe?
[08:42] Chika
    Huh?
[08:43] Yumiko
    You must have your own reason.
[08:45] Yumiko
    For becoming a voice actress.
[08:50] Chika
    So, my dad... He was an animator.
[08:54] Yumiko
    Wow.
[08:56] Chika
    This was before my parents divorced.
[08:58] Chika
    I really liked watching
     the projects he worked on.
[09:02] Chika
    When he said, "I drew this
    part here," I'd get so excited.
[09:09] Chika
    I was really proud that
    he was creating things.
[09:13] Chika
    Eventually, it became my dream
    to be in my father's work.
[09:18] Chika
    I thought, "I want to be a voice actress."
[09:21] Chika
    My mom's not exactly a fan, though.
[09:24] Yumiko
    Really?
[09:25] Chika
    She's never really understood anime.
[09:29] Chika
    I guess she's not pleased I want
    into the same industry as my dad.
[09:33] Yumiko
    It'd be fun to read about what inspired
    your start in an article, but...
[09:39] Chika
    I couldn't give that answer in an interview.
[09:42] Chika
    I wonder when I'll be able to focus
    solely on voice acting...
[09:47] Yumiko
    I hope the time comes soon when you
    don't have to do things you don't want to.
[09:51] Chika
    Huh?
[09:54] Chika
    Lately, I've started to feel a bit—
[09:58] Chika
    just a little bit—
[10:00] Chika
    like being an idol voice
    actress can be fun, too.
[10:06] Yumiko

    Good morning.
[10:28] Yumiko
    Thank you for having me.

[10:51] Chika's Mom
    Yumiko-chan, may I ask you something?
[10:54] Yumiko
    Of course.
[10:56] Chika's Mom
    What do your parents think of
    you being a voice actress?
[11:10] Yumiko
    My mother lets me do as I please.
[11:12] Yumiko
    She says if there's something
    I want to do, I should do it.
[11:16] Chika's Mom
    What a lovely mother.
[11:21] Chika's Mom
    Maybe I shouldn't say this
    when you're a voice actress as well,
[11:25] Chika's Mom
    but I just don't think it's a very good job.
[11:28] Chika's Mom
    It's unstable, and you never know
    what the next day will bring.
[11:32] Chika's Mom
    A job with no guarantees
    can't be a legitimate career.
[11:35] Chika's Mom
    It might be fine for now,
[11:37] Chika's Mom
    but when I think about
    her trying to support herself...
[11:39] Chika's Mom
    It makes me shudder.
[11:41] Yumiko
    I figured you gave her your blessing
    when she became a voice actress.
[11:45] Chika's Mom
    She had my permission as things stood
    when she started with the theater troupe.
[11:51] Chika's Mom
    She told me then that she wanted
    to overcome her shyness,
[11:54] Chika's Mom
    but the next thing I knew,
[11:56] Chika's Mom
    she was being signed by a voice acting agency.
[12:00] Chika's Mom
    On top of that, they
    may call her a voice actress,
[12:02] Chika's Mom
    but she's essentially a mock idol.
[12:06] Chika's Mom
    Dancing and singing onstage,
[12:09] Chika's Mom
    her picture all over
    magazines and the internet...
[12:11] Chika's Mom
    The job makes her sell her youth
    and femininity. It's pathetic.

    I agree with you.
[12:30] Yumiko
    It's totally insubstantial.
[12:34] Yumiko
    I've only been at it for three years,
[12:36] Yumiko
    but I already feel like garbage
    when I'm not getting work.
[12:39] Yumiko
    As an idol voice actress,
[12:41] Yumiko
    I have no idea what the future may bring.
[12:44] Yumiko
    But Yugure Yuhi is different.
[12:47] Yumiko
    She's got the skill
    to make it in this industry.
[12:51] Yumiko
    Everyone recognizes that,
[12:54] Yumiko
    and I'm always jealous of her.
[12:56] Yumiko
    I'm sure Watanabe will become
    a great voice actress.
[12:59] Yumiko
    Having her as my partner is exhausting.
[13:02] Yumiko
    It's tough not being as good as she is.
[13:04] Yumiko
    Still, closing the distance
    between us is one of my goals.
[13:11] Yumiko
    Excuse me.
[13:13] Yumiko
    I think I'll go back now.
[13:30] Yumiko

[14:01] Chika
    Sakuranamiki-san and Asaka-san,

    I envy it.
[14:14] Chika
    But that's not all.
[14:19] Chika
    I consider you a threat
    as a voice actress, too.
[14:23] Chika
    When I see you perform,
[14:24] Chika
    I'm forced to admit you're good.
[14:27] Chika

    No way!

    The starring role for that Kamishiro anime...
[16:19] Yumiko
    They must have had dozens auditioning
    who were top-tier in both popularity and skill.
[16:24] Yumiko
    You're amazing, Watanabe.
[16:27] Yumiko
    You really are.
[16:29] Yumiko

    doesn't affect you at all.
[17:46] Chika
    What's with that
    passive-aggressive tone? It's awful.
[17:51] Yumiko
    Well, maybe I'm just feeling irritated.
[17:54] Yumiko
    I mean, I don't have a lot of work,
[17:56] Yumiko
    so maybe I was banking on this.
[17:58] Yumiko
    Maybe I was trying really hard.
[18:00] Yumiko
    Unlike you, I'm desperate over here.

[18:23] Chika
    What is this?
[18:24] Chika
    Why are you trying so hard to get to me?

    Probably because I'm jealous.
[18:29] Yumiko
    Oh, this is bad. You need to stop.
[18:33] Yumiko
    Just shut your mouth...

    Just tell me what's going on.

    I just took it out on her!
[19:32] Yumiko
    I've been on edge lately because
    I keep bombing my auditions,
[19:36] Yumiko
    and meanwhile, Watanabe lands a huge role.
[19:39] Yumiko
    So I was so jealous and felt so pathetic...

    that our show is getting axed.

    That was a shock all on its own.
[19:54] Yumiko
    Wh-Why did I say those things to her?
[19:58] Yumiko
    I'm so sick of myself...
[20:01] Asaka
    Listen, she was shocked as well
    when she heard the show was ending.
[20:08] Yumiko
    Huh?
[20:08] Asaka
    See? She even left her script behind.
[20:12] Asaka
    She never forgets anything,
[20:15] Asaka
    but this is the second time today.
[20:18] Asaka
    And look at this. See here?
[20:22] Asaka
    It's all blank.
[20:24] Asaka
    Normally, she fills her scripts
    with detailed notes.
[20:28] Asaka
    But her mind's been elsewhere
    ever since that meeting.
[20:32] Asaka
    I've done my fair share of these,

    the first thing about me?!
[06:19] Chika
    Exposing my private life and filming
    me without consent is fair game,
[06:23] Chika
    but you get to act like
    I'm the one causing harm?
[06:28] Chika
    You fabricate your own
    expectations and fantasies,
[06:30] Chika
    then go and shatter your own dreams!
[06:32] Chika
    Just...
[06:33] Chika
    Stop it already!
[06:36] Yumiko

[06:37] Shimizu
    Hey!
[06:38] Shimizu
    Don't run away!
[06:39] Yumiko
    Wait!
[06:41] Yumiko
    Watanabe!
[06:44] Yumiko
    Wait! Please!
[06:47] Chika
    Aren't you satisfied?
[06:49] Yumiko
    Huh?
[06:50] Chika
    I mean, you accused me of it, too.
    The casting couch.
[06:58] Yumiko
    It's not like you really did it.
[07:02] Yumiko
    I was wrong to say what I did yesterday.
[07:05] Yumiko
    I'm sorry.
[07:06] Yumiko
    I'm really, really sorry.
[07:08] Yumiko
    I was just in a super sour mood...
[07:13] Yumiko
    I didn't mean any of it.
[07:20] Yumiko
    You got that role solely on the merits
    of your abilities as Yugure Yuhi, right?
[07:28] Chika
    Yes.
[07:31] Chika
    Cheating to get a role in a Kamishiro anime
    I love so much would be like playing myself.
[07:37] Yumiko
    In that case—
[07:38] Chika
    Even so!
[07:40] Chika
    It's not like anyone will believe me.
[07:44] Chika
    Nobody will listen to
    anything I have to say now.
[07:48] Chika
    A dirty, newbie actress
    who'd sleep her way into a role...
[07:51] Chika
    That's who I am.
[07:53] Chika
    I'm finished.
[07:55] Chika
    Just when I was starting to think being
    an idol voice actress was kind of fun...
[08:07] Chika
    I'm... going to quit voice acting.
[08:19] Wakana
    Yumiko.
[08:21] Wakana
    The teacher came in and took
    that shouting student away.
[08:26] Yumiko
    Okay.
[08:28] Wakana
    So, Watanabe-chan is a voice actress?
[08:31] Wakana
    I understood that much.
[08:34] Wakana
    But I guess you're one too, huh?
[08:36] Yumiko
    Yeah.
[08:37] Yumiko
    Sorry I didn't tell you.
[08:39] Wakana
    It's fine, it's fine!
[08:40] Wakana
    I've known forever you were
    doing something in secret.
[08:45] Yumiko
    Huh?
[08:46] Wakana
    I figured since you didn't talk about it,
     there was a reason you couldn't.
[08:51] Wakana
    But can you talk about it now?
[08:53] Yumiko
    Yeah.
[08:54] Yumiko
    It's a pretty long story, though.
[08:57] Wakana
    Sounds like we'll need to go
    somewhere with bottomless drinks!
[09:08] Kagasaki
    The situation with Yugure is grim.
[09:11] Kagasaki
    It's up to her agency to decide
    how to handle it,
[09:15] Kagasaki
    so there's no point in us
    trying to offer a solution.
[09:17] Yumiko
    Okay.
[09:18] Kagasaki
    Now, Yumiko, about that video...
[09:22] Kagasaki
    We're lucky people can't see you in it.
[09:26] Kagasaki
    You really dodged a bullet.
[09:28] Kagasaki
    I've wanted to stay out
    of your personal life,
[09:32] Kagasaki
    but could you make sure you look the part
    in case someone does see you?
[09:37] Kagasaki
    Your school is a target now.
[09:39] Kagasaki
    There's a chance fans could show up.
[09:41] Yumiko
    Kagasaki-san.
[09:43] Kagasaki
    Yes?
[09:49] Yumiko
    The thing is, I'm really grateful
    for all you've done.
[09:54] Yumiko
    It's because of you that I still
    get actual voice acting work.
[10:00] Yumiko
    And I've given it my all.
[10:03] Yumiko
    Thank you for everything.
[10:05] Yumiko
    But I'm sorry.
[10:07] Yumiko

    My socials are blowing up, too.
[10:52] Yumiko
    Yugure Yuhi's agency still hasn't
    made an official statement,
[10:56] Yumiko
    so to pull a stunt like this as a third party,
[10:59] Yumiko
    I'm asking for more

[11:57] Yumiko
    Good evening.
[11:59] Yumiko
    I'm Utatane Yasumi.
[12:01] Yumiko
    I imagine a lot of you are surprised.
[12:04] Yumiko
    Both those who know me as Utatane Yasumi,
     and those who don't.
[12:08] Yumiko
    I think anyone would be shocked
    to find a gyaru like me
[12:12] Yumiko
    on a voice actress radio show.
[12:14] Yumiko
    First off, an apology.
[12:16] Yumiko
    This is who I really am.
[12:18] Yumiko
    I'm sorry for deceiving you.
[12:20] Yumiko
    I suspect most of you watching this
    have already seen the video.
[12:26] Yumiko
    The footage of Yugure Yuhi getting
    accosted at her school.
[12:30] Yumiko
    Just like me, she's deceived you all, too.
[12:34] Yumiko
    That antisocial girl is who she really is.
[12:36] Yumiko
    And she's got a nasty tongue.
[12:38] Yumiko
    Behind the mic, Yugure Yuhi and
    Utatane Yasumi play different personas.
[12:44] Yumiko
    Because that's what sells.

[12:52] Yumiko
    We don't even get along.
[12:53] Yumiko
    We always bicker with each other,
[12:55] Yumiko
    and at school, we barely speak.
[12:58] Yumiko
    She probably doesn't like me,
[13:00] Yumiko
    but I don't like her either.
[13:03] Yumiko
    During that incident, she punched a guy.
[13:06] Yumiko
    Anyone who sees it might think she's
     the type to resort to violence in anger.
[13:13] Yumiko
    But if you watch closely, you can see...
[13:15] Yumiko
    She was protecting me.
[13:18] Yumiko
    Because if my real looks got out,
[13:20] Yumiko
    the career of the idol voice actress
     Utatane Yasumi would be over.
[13:24] Yumiko
    I know it's crazy for me
    to come out like this,

[13:31] Yumiko
    But I had to tell the truth here and now.
[13:35] Yumiko
    There's something I want
    you to hear about Yugure Yuhi,
[13:37] Yumiko
    from the real me
    without any more deception.
[13:43] Yumiko
    She didn't do it.
[13:45] Yumiko
    She's got a cynical personality,
[13:47] Yumiko
    and she's incorrigible as a person,
[13:49] Yumiko
    but she's really earnest
    about her work as a voice actress.
[13:53] Yumiko
    She already had doubts about
    being an idol voice actress,
[13:57] Yumiko
    and it made her uncomfortable
    to deceive her fans...
[14:00] Yumiko
    But she made an honest effort
    to keep the lies she told to a minimum.
[14:05] Yumiko
    She's a huge fan of Kamishiro's
    anime projects.
[14:08] Yumiko
    She even said that cheating
    her way onto a project she treasures
[14:11] Yumiko
    would only be playing herself.
[14:13] Yumiko
    She is so not the type
    to ever resort to the casting couch!
[14:17] Yumiko
    In fact, she hates that crap
    more than anything!
[14:20] Yumiko
    I can tell... I couldn't help but see it.
[14:25] Yumiko
    She's got a rotten personality,
[14:27] Yumiko
    but she's also incredibly sincere.
[14:29] Yumiko
    I look up to her so much!
[14:31] Yumiko
    That's the real Yugure Yuhi!
[14:33] Yumiko
    You're her fans, aren't you?
[14:36] Yumiko
    Yes, she may have lied about some things
[14:38] Yumiko
    and she may not really be an idol,
[14:41] Yumiko
    but the voice you fell in love with...
[14:43] Yumiko
    That's for real, you know?!
[14:44] Yumiko
    If you care for her, even a little bit...
[14:47] Yumiko
    If you used to care about her,
    then help her!
[14:49] Yumiko
    All it would take is for you
    to tell her that things are okay.
[14:54] Yumiko
    At this rate, she's going
    to quit voice acting!
[14:57] Yumiko
    I want to keep doing radio shows with her!
[15:05] Yumiko
    Wh-What are you...
[15:11] Chika
    I really hate that you're like this.
[15:16] Yumiko
    What are you doing here?
[15:18] Yumiko
    I thought nobody could reach you...
[15:20] Chika
    Yes.
[15:21] Chika
    I was so mad at everything,
[15:22] Chika
    I just shut it all out at home.
[15:25] Chika
    But then, he came over
    and told me about this stream.
[15:32] Yumiko
    He? Who do you mean?
[15:37] Kamishiro
    Hello, Utatane-san.
[15:40] Kamishiro
    It's nice to meet you.
[15:41] Kamishiro

[15:42] Yumiko
    D-Director Kamishiro?!
[15:47] Kamishiro
    I'm sorry to show up
    out of the blue like this.
[15:50] Yumiko
    Er, no, that's totally fine, but...
[15:58] Kamishiro
    I know it's brazen,
[16:00] Kamishiro
    but I'd like to interrupt
    your stream for a bit.
[16:03] Yumiko

[17:25] Kamishiro
    I was the only one who did
    not vote for Yugure Yuhi.

    I imagined there was no way

[21:38] Chika
    And apparently it smells like money,

[21:42] Guy
    Yubisaki-san, it's time for the real take.
[21:42] Chika

    and using fake personas.

    You've really gone and done it now, Yumiko.
[00:03] Kagasaki
    The idol actress Utatane Yasumi
     died yesterday.
[00:07] Kagasaki
    Do you have any idea how much money and
    energy the agency and I have sunk into you?
[00:12] Kagasaki
    And all of that went poof yesterday.
[00:15] Yumiko
    I know.
[00:16] Yumiko
    I'm so sorry!
[00:17] Kagasaki
    We're going to Blue Crown to apologize.

    Kagasaki-san. It's nice to see you.
[02:02] Kagasaki
    I'm sorry it's been so long,
     President Kashima.
[02:05] Yumiko
    President?!
[02:07] Kashima
    It's a pleasure to meet you.
[02:08] Kashima
    I'm Kashima, the president of Blue Crown.
[02:13] Yumiko
    I-It's so nice to meet you.
[02:16] Yumiko
    My name is Utatane Yasumi,
    and I work for Choco Brownie.
[02:20] Kagasaki
    President Kashima, we came today to...
[02:22] Kashima
    Please, that's quite all right.
[02:24] Kashima
    Why don't you take a seat first?
[02:29] Kashima
    What you did was genuinely unnecessary.
[02:33] Kashima
    Our agency was preparing
    to explain everything
[02:36] Kashima
    in the proper way to dispel
     the misunderstanding.
[02:39] Kashima
    Yugure Yuhi would have continued working
[02:42] Kashima
    as an idol voice actress unaffected.
[02:46] Yumiko
    I understand what I did was rash.
[02:48] Yumiko
    I didn't think things through.
[02:51] Yumiko
    I am truly sorry.
[02:53] Kashima
    I believe that regret is the most important
     thing when you make a mistake.
[02:59] Kashima
    Growing from bitter experiences
    is what gives them meaning.
[03:03] Kashima
    Do you well and truly regret
     what you've done?
[03:08] Yumiko
    Regret?
[03:11] Yumiko
    I... don't regret it.
[03:14] Yumiko
    I am very sorry for what happened.
[03:16] Yumiko
    I've reflected on my actions.
[03:18] Yumiko
    But I do not regret what I've done.
[03:22] Yumiko
    Even if I could turn back time,
[03:24] Yumiko
    I probably would do the
    exact same thing again.
[03:27] Yumiko
    At the very least, I don't think I was wrong
[03:29] Yumiko
    to try to do something for Watanabe.
[03:35] Kashima
    You listen here...
[03:37] Kashima
    Learn your damn place, you little brat!
[03:39] Kashima
    Do you have any idea what you're saying?!
[03:41] Kashima
    There's a limit to sh-shu-shtupid—
[03:44] Yumiko
    He stuttered...
[03:54] Kashima
    Goodness, I'm really sorry, Kagasaki-san.
[03:57] Kashima
    I couldn't keep it together.
[03:59] Kashima
    I messed my line up there good.
[04:01] Kagasaki
    Hardly, President.
[04:02] Kagasaki
    That was more than enough.
[04:03] Kagasaki
    I'm sorry for dragging you into this.
[04:06] Yumiko
    Wh-What's going on here?
[04:08] Kashima
    What? You're witnessing
     Kagasaki-san's parental love.
[04:12] Kagasaki
    This was purely to make you
    take responsibility.
[04:14] Kagasaki
    We actually settled everything yesterday.
[04:17] Yumiko
    Huh?
[04:18] Kashima
    Since this was between us and Choco Brownie,
[04:20] Kashima
    we were able to settle things amicably.
[04:22] Kashima
    But there was lots
    we could have bickered about.
[04:25] Kagasaki
    I wanted you to understand
    the gravity of the situation,
[04:28] Kagasaki
    so I went out on a limb and
    asked him to put on a little act.
[04:31] Kashima
    And who was I to say no
    when you asked like that?
[04:34] Kashima
    Not to mention, it's almost like
     a higher-up's job to be mad.
[04:38] Yumiko
    I'm so glad!
[04:40] Yumiko
    I was so scared!
[04:42] Yumiko
    I'm so relieved!
[04:44] Kashima
    Sorry to get belligerent on you.
[04:47] Kashima
    But one more thing.
[04:48] Kashima
    I owe Kagasaki-san an apology for this
    because she's trying to get you to focus,
[04:52] Kashima
    but there's something I need to say to you.
[04:56] Kashima
    Utatane Yasumi-san, thank you
    for extending a hand to Yugure-san.
[05:02] Yumiko

    Can she really do manager stuff?
[06:33] Kagasaki
    Don't be stupid.
[06:34] Kagasaki
    That woman is brilliant.
[06:36] Kagasaki
    Yugure's able to shine because of her.
[06:41] Kagasaki
    She manages other popular girls, too.
[06:44] Yumiko
    I figured she was new here...
[06:46] Kagasaki
    She's older than I am, you know.
[06:49] Yumiko
    You're joking!
[06:50] Kagasaki
    I'm serious.
[06:54] Yumiko
    So, Kagasaki-san...
[06:56] Yumiko
    How do you really feel?
[06:57] Yumiko
    Was that all a performance?
[06:59] Yumiko
    Or are you honestly mad?
[07:01] Kagasaki
    What?
[07:03] Kagasaki
    I'm absolutely livid.
[07:04] Yumiko
    Uh-oh...
[07:06] Kagasaki
    From a manager's perspective,
[07:08] Kagasaki
    I couldn't care less about
    actors from other agencies.
[07:11] Kagasaki
    I wished you'd only been
    worried about yourself.
[07:14] Kagasaki
    However...
[07:16] Kagasaki
    As plain, old, nonmanagerial Ringo-chan,
[07:21] Kagasaki
    I think what you did was pretty incredible.
[07:25] Kagasaki
    Taking a hit to help another isn't
    something just anyone would do.
[07:31] Kagasaki
    You did good.
[07:33] Yumiko
    Kagasaki-san...
[07:35] Yumiko
    Being nice to me after being so mean
    is how an abusive boyfriend behaves.

    who got her start alongside Otome-neesan!
[07:52] Mekuru
    Wasn't expecting to run into you here.
[07:55] Kagasaki
    I'd forgotten you also worked
    at Blue Crown, Yubisaki-san.
[07:58] Mekuru
    You're Utatane Yasumi-san, right?
[08:02] Yumiko
    Yes! It's nice to meet you.
[08:05] Yumiko
    I'm Utatane Yasumi with Choco Brownie.
[08:08] Yumiko
    I'm so glad we could meet.
[08:09] Mekuru
    I'm Yubisaki Mekuru.
    I work for Blue Crown.
[08:12] Mekuru
    I guess you're here about Yugure, huh?
[08:15] Mekuru
    I wanted to thank you for that.
[08:18] Mekuru
    You have my gratitude, Utatane-san...
[08:23] Mekuru
    for dragging our silly little star to hell.
[08:29] Mekuru
    A casting couch accusation?
[08:31] Mekuru
    Talk about the worst mistake
    an idol voice actress could possibly make.
[08:36] Mekuru
    How utterly careless.
[08:37] Mekuru
    Totally not serious enough about the job.
[08:39] Mekuru
    I mean, come on. That was just awful.
[08:42] Mekuru
    And the agency covering
    for her is just as bad.
[08:45] Mekuru
    Normally, that kind of screwup
    would be grounds for dismissal.
[08:49] Mekuru
    But just when I was thinking what
    a terrible example it would set
[08:53] Mekuru
    for a screwup like her to waltz back in here
    like nothing ever happened, you stepped up.
[08:59] Mekuru
    Now that you've exposed everything about her,
[09:03] Mekuru
    the idol voice actress Yugure Yuhi
     is as good as dead.
[09:07] Mekuru
    Thank you for doling out a suitable
    punishment to that dumb girl.
[09:13] Yumiko
    Yubisaki-san, what happened to her
     was an unfortunate accident.
[09:18] Mekuru
    Thinking of it that way is what makes
     you a third-rate voice actress.
[09:23] Mekuru
    If you want to play friends,
    go do it elsewhere.
[09:27] Yumiko
    Why are you acting like this?
[09:30] Yumiko
    It doesn't concern you.
[09:32] Mekuru
    It obviously does.
[09:34] Mekuru
    Because you two brazenly announced,
[09:37] Mekuru
    "Voice actresses are different in real life!"
[09:39] Mekuru
    Now fans everywhere have
    it burned into their brains
[09:44] Mekuru
    that their favorite voice
    actress might be faking it, too.
[09:48] Mekuru
    Every time a voice actress says something
    cutesy, people will doubt her.
[09:52] Mekuru
    Even if she's speaking from the heart
    or maybe by force of habit,
[09:56] Mekuru
    no one will take anything at face value now.
[09:58] Mekuru
    You think that doesn't concern me?
[10:00] Mekuru
    You've got some nerve, saying that.
[10:02] Kagasaki
    Yubisaki-san, please leave it at that.
[10:05] Kagasaki
    I can't have you bullying her too hard.
[10:08] Mekuru
    Calling that bullying is bullying me.
[10:12] Mekuru
    But since I do want to keep
    working with you in the future,
[10:17] Mekuru
    please stay in touch, Kagasaki-san!
[10:20] Mekuru
    See you later!
[10:24] Yumiko
    What the hell was that?!
[10:26] Yumiko
    She didn't have to be so mean!
[10:28] Yumiko
    I mean, she's probably right, but still!
[10:31] Kagasaki
    Well, yeah.
[10:33] Kagasaki
    She was a bit harsh about it.
[10:34] Yumiko
    A bit?!
[10:36] Yumiko
    And wait, why are you in such a good mood?
[10:39] Kagasaki
    It's just kinda funny
    for Yubisaki to end up saying
[10:42] Kagasaki
    everything I was thinking
     I'd have to spell out for you.
[10:46] Yumiko
    So you agree with her?
[10:49] Yumiko
    I mean, I get it, but it still made me mad.
[10:53] Kagasaki
    But you know, Yumiko...
[10:55] Kagasaki

[10:57] Kagasaki

[11:27] Otome
    Mind if I share it now?
[11:28] Kagasaki
    She has a good opening, right?
[11:31] Mekuru
    Um, so the movie takes place
    after the last episode of the anime, right?
[11:36] Yumiko
    A perfectly paced conversation.
[11:39] Yumiko
    Quality questions.
[11:40] Yumiko
    The way she runs the show,
    even someone out of the loop could keep up.
[11:45] Yumiko
    She's good.
[11:47] Yumiko
    Way better than me.
[11:49] Kagasaki
    Yubisaki-san's had three regular,
     long-running shows
[11:52] Kagasaki
    that each made it to over
    two hundred episodes.
[11:56] Kagasaki
    If there's some special or event,
    there's a good chance she'll get a call.
[12:00] Kagasaki
    She has the gift of the gab.
[12:02] Kagasaki
    You can see the hook there, right?
[12:06] Kagasaki
    Since you've lost the hook
    of being an idol voice actress,
[12:10] Kagasaki
    you need to find something else.
[12:12] Kagasaki
    In that regard, Yubisaki Mekuru
    should be a great reference.
[12:17] Yumiko
    I get that, but...
[12:20] Kagasaki
    You can learn lots from her other shows, too.
[12:23] Kagasaki
    For example, Mekuru and Hanabi's
    "You Know We Started the Same Year, Right?"
[12:28] Kagasaki
    People with chemistry obviously
    have a lot of charm and draw.

[12:38] Yumiko
    People with chemistry...

    who livestreamed our classroom.

    and he ended up leaving our school.
[13:14] Yumiko
    That was a relief, but...

[14:04] Yumiko
    Right?
[14:06] Chika
    You can only pull that off
    because of the way you normally look.
[14:10] Chika
    Maybe I should try a disguise, too.
[14:13] Yumiko
    Why not let me handle that?
[14:15] Yumiko
    I'll pull off something
    they'll never see through.
[14:19] Chika
    You're rarely this generous.
[14:21] Chika
    What's going on?
[14:23] Yumiko
    I've always wanted to put makeup
    on Yugure Yuhi's pretty face!
[14:27] Yumiko
    Not that I can say that...
[14:29] Yumiko
    I-I'd feel bad if I was
     the only one to get away.
[14:33] Chika
    I see.
[14:34] Chika
    Then I'm in your hands.
[14:40] Yumiko
    Her face really is flawless.
    As for the rest of her, though...
[14:45] Yumiko
    How's work these days?
[14:48] Yumiko
    Are things different?
[14:50] Chika
    I'm surprised by how much, actually.
[14:53] Chika
    I get far fewer offers now.
[14:56] Chika
    Naturally, idol voice actress gigs dropped off,
[14:59] Chika
    but anime and game gigs have too.
[15:02] Chika
    I got kicked off a lot of projects that
    haven't been announced yet.
[15:06] Yumiko
    What about Phantom?
[15:08] Chika
    That one is fine.
[15:10] Chika
    If anything, replacing me now
     would only make things worse.
[15:17] Chika
    I always had my doubts
    about the idol-esque work.
[15:21] Chika
    I wanted to focus on jobs
    that were strictly about my voice,
[15:25] Chika
    but this forced me to recognize
    how much the idol work helped me.
[15:32] Chika
    Sato?
[15:33] Yumiko
    Sorry!
[15:34] Yumiko
    I'm done.
[15:35] Chika

    Fine. Do as you please.
[15:56] Yumiko
    Huh? What is it?

    That gyaru-looking chick was pretty cute, huh?
[16:54] Guy3
    I like the studious girl next to her.
[17:06] Yumiko
    See? I told you.
[17:08] Chika
    You were right.
[17:11] Yumiko
    Hello?
[17:12] Yumiko
    Kagasaki-san?
[17:13] Chika
    Yes, Naruse-san?
[17:18] Kagasaki
    Naruse-san, do you drink?
[17:21] Naruse
    I do like to drink.
[17:23] Naruse
    Though I stick to light stuff, like sours.
[17:27] Naruse
    I imagine you enjoy more adult drinks.
[17:31] Kagasaki
    We should go grab a few sometime.
[17:34] Kagasaki
    I know a really great place.
[17:35] Yumiko
    Whoa. Kagasaki-san, are you seducing
    a woman from another agency?
[17:39] Kagasaki
    Yumiko?
[17:41] Kagasaki
    Is that a disguise?
[17:42] Kagasaki
    That's great.
[17:43] Kagasaki
    Not only is it a good disguise,
    but it's a cute one, too.
[17:47] Kagasaki
    It suits you.
[17:49] Naruse
    Yuhi-chan, what's going on?
[17:51] Naruse
    You look so cute!
[17:55] Yumiko
    So, what's this meeting about?
[17:58] Kagasaki
    We're discussing some strategies.
[18:00] Kagasaki
    Usually, Blue Crown is our competition,
[18:03] Kagasaki
    but for now, we've decided
    it's best to join forces.
[18:06] Naruse
    Our Yugure has taken a big hit.
[18:10] Naruse
    I was trying to think of ways
    to reverse the current dip
[18:13] Naruse
    in her reputation when Kagasaki-san
    reached out to me.
[18:18] Kagasaki
    Our Utatane is more or less in the same boat.
[18:21] Kagasaki
    So we were trying to figure out
    how you two could collaborate.
[18:24] Yumiko
    Collaborate? The two of us?
[18:27] Chika
    Isn't that just dooming us
    to fail simultaneously?
[18:29] Yumiko
    Hey! It was your controversy
     I got swept up in.
[18:33] Chika
    You're the one who decided to jump
    into the fire all by yourself.
[18:37] Yumiko
    Oh, wow, listen to you talking big!
[18:40] Yumiko
    Don't forget who was sobbing,
    "I'm gonna quit voice acting!"
[18:45] Chika
    There it is.
[18:46] Chika
    I really hate this side of you!
[18:49] Naruse
    For this to work, we really
    need you two to work together.
[18:53] Kagasaki
    Even amidst all this,
     you have one ally on your side.
[18:59] Kagasaki
    Catch my drift?
[19:00] Kagasaki
    I mean the radio show.
[19:02] Naruse
    Your talks are popular
    because you don't mince words,
[19:05] Naruse
    and your new style is gaining
    more and more popularity.
[19:08] Kagasaki
    They're accepting you,
     so we're riding this wave.
[19:12] Kagasaki
    Utatane Yasumi as the sociable gyaru.
[19:15] Naruse
    And Yugure Yuhi as the reserved one.
[19:17] Naruse
    That's how we'll market you.
[19:19] Naruse
    We'll make people forget your past personas
[19:22] Naruse
    and reacknowledge you for who you are.
[19:24] Chika
    Wait, please.
[19:26] Chika
    Does this mean you want us
    to build entirely new personas?
[19:29] Chika
    If so, won't we just have the same problem?
[19:32] Naruse
    But it's true that Utatane-san is a gyaru,
[19:34] Naruse
    and Yuhi-chan, you're certainly
    well-behaved, right?
[19:38] Naga
    There are plenty of voice actors
    who sell their real personalities.
[19:42] Naga
    That's the angle we're going for.
[19:44] Naruse
    See, now you can talk about
    what you like all you want.
[19:48] Naruse
    Like about Iron Gondola.
[19:51] Naruse
    And maybe the great noises
    robots make when they move?
[19:54] Chika
    It's not "Gondola." It's Goldra.
[19:56] Chika
    And yes, I may have talked about
    how great the sounds are,
[19:59] Chika
    but that's not the only thing
     that makes it so wonderful.
[20:01] Yumiko
    So, what exactly are we supposed to do?
[20:04] Kagasaki
    Naruse-san and I used our connections to get
    you a bunch of guest spots on radio shows.

    At any rate, getting in front of fans—
[20:22] Yumiko
    H-Hold on a sec!
[20:24] Yumiko
    Watanabe and I are being hated on
    by our fans for "deceiving" them.
[20:28] Yumiko
    If we get out there now,
    it'll only make things worse.
[20:31] Chika
    Besides, even if we did events,
    nobody would show up.
[20:36] Otome
    And that's where I come in.
[20:41] Yumiko
    Otome-neesan!
[20:42] Kagasaki
    Sorry for calling you out when you're so busy.
[20:46] Otome
    No problem!
[20:47] Otome
    Anything for my precious juniors.
[20:50] Otome
    Both of your makeovers are amazing!
[20:52] Otome
    How cute!
[20:54] Chika
    Uhm...
[20:55] Kagasaki
    Going forward,
    we'll really lean into Heart Tart.
[21:00] Kagasaki
    Luckily, the release of your second
    single is coming up.
[21:04] Naruse
    All your worries about events will
    be resolved if Sakuranamiki-san's there.
[21:09] Kagasaki
    Nobody wants to be disliked
    by someone they love.
[21:13] Kagasaki
    With Sakuranamiki there,
[21:15] Kagasaki
    I seriously doubt anyone will go out
    of their way to come hate on you.
[21:19] Otome
    You're really overselling me.
[21:21] Kagasaki
    Well, that's the idea.
[21:23] Kagasaki
    We'll do a talk show before the release
    and a personal release event.
[21:26] Kagasaki
    There're also some radio shows willing
    to have you on as Heart Tart.
[21:30] Yumiko
    Otome-neesan, do you even
    have time for any of this?
[21:32] Otome
    Not a problem.
[21:34] Otome
    It is for you two, after all.
[21:36] Kagasaki
    In order to minimize stress
     for Sakuranamiki,
[21:40] Kagasaki
    it'll mainly be you two doing
    the radio spots.
[21:42] Naruse
    You'll be on all sorts of shows,

[02:11] both
    Good morning.
[02:20] Mekuru
    I didn't think I'd get dragged
    in to clean up your mess
[02:22] Mekuru
    just because you're my junior at the agency.
[02:26] Mekuru
    I hear you're going to go annoy
    a ton of other radio shows, too.
[02:29] Chika
    Did you hear that from Naruse-san?
[02:32] Mekuru
    What are you talking about?
    You wouldn't shut up about it on your show.
[02:36] Yumiko(m)
    She listens to our show?
[02:39] Mekuru
    You've gone and exposed yourselves,
[02:41] Mekuru
    but if you dare to out me
    or any other actress,
[02:44] Mekuru
    I'll beat you to a pulp.
[02:45] Yumiko
    We wouldn't do that.
[02:48] Yumiko
    Why are you so aggressive with us, anyway?
[02:52] Mekuru
    Because I can't stand people
    like you who half-ass this job.
[02:57] Mekuru
    What pisses me off the most is that you 
    think you're the poor victims here.
[03:03] Yumiko
    Forget me.
[03:05] Yumiko
    But Yu is totally the victim here.
[03:06] Mekuru
    You guys were the ones doing the harm.
[03:09] Mekuru
    At least to your fans.
[03:11] Mekuru
    As an idol voice actress, you protect
    their fantasies with your life.
[03:15] Mekuru
    The agency would've kept you
    on the idol voice actress path, too.
[03:19] Mekuru
    But now we're seeing what happens when you
    carelessly keep taking the easy way out.
[03:23] Yumiko
    That's...
[03:25] Mekuru
    In that sense, you're the naivest
    one here, Utatane Yasumi.
[03:30] Mekuru
    Yugure went out of her way to protect you,
[03:33] Mekuru
    so you go sabotage yourself all on your own.
[03:35] Mekuru
    You made so many people's lives harder,
    purely for your own self-satisfaction.
[03:39] Mekuru
    You even turned your fans against you.
[03:45] Chika
    Harping on the hypothetical and gloating...
[03:48] Chika
    How uncouth of you.
[03:50] Mekuru
    You mad because I hit you with the truth?
[03:53] Mekuru
    Not that you glaring at me fazes me one bit.
[03:56] Asaka
    Goodness, you guys always get
     into it no matter where you are.
[04:00] Yumiko
    Asaka-chan?!
[04:02] Yumiko
    Why are you here?
[04:03] Asaka
    I'm the writer for the show.
[04:06] Asaka
    Now, shall we get started?
[04:11] Director
    That's a wrap.
[04:13] Mekuru
    Great work!
[04:15] Asaka
    Yuhi-chan, can I get your autograph
    on these gifts?
[04:16] Yumiko(m)
    She really is good!
[04:18] Chika
    Sure.
[04:19] Yumiko(m)
    She kept a snappy pace but made sure
    to get in laughs to make the show fun.
[04:25] Yumiko(m)
    Things were ugly before recording,
    but even I couldn't help laughing along.
[04:30] Yumiko(m)
    She's also knowledgeable
    about voice acting and projects.
[04:33] Yumiko
    Um, Yubisaki-san.
[04:35] Yumiko
    Do you memorize all that
    information about your guests?
[04:39] Mekuru
    Shut up. Don't take an interest in me.
[04:41] Yumiko
    You knew lots about us, too.
[04:44] Yumiko
    Does that mean you keep tabs on us?
[04:48] Mekuru
    Maybe.
[04:49] Yumiko
    How can I become the kind
    of conversationalist you are?
[04:54] Mekuru
    Who knows?
[04:55] Mekuru
    Well, then. I'll be off now!
[04:57] Yumiko
    Yubisaki-san!
[04:59] Yumiko
    Could we grab a bite together?
[05:05] Mekuru
    Dining with a brat who can't even drink?
[05:07] Mekuru
    You must be joking.
[05:09] Yumiko
    So if I were old enough to drink,
     you'd go with me?
[05:16] Chika
    I can't believe you'd ask after
    she mopped the floor with you.
[05:20] Chika
    Are you into that?
[05:21] Yumiko
    Even if you don't like someone,
[05:23] Yumiko
    you'll never understand them
    if you don't talk to them.
[05:26] Chika
    Huh...
[05:26] Yumiko
    Asaka-chan, you could
    have helped me out there a little.
[05:30] Asaka
    Give me a break.
[05:31] Asaka
    If she doesn't want to, I can't make her.
[05:35] Yumiko
    So you think she really didn't want to?
[05:38] Chika
    I mean, obviously.
[05:40] Chika
    Have you lost the ability
    to tell how other people feel?
[05:43] Yumiko
    I just feel like Yubisaki-san
    puts up that wall on purpose.
[05:49] Yumiko
    That's the vibe I get.
[05:52] Yumiko
    Is Yubisaki-san that rude
    to other voice actresses as well?
[05:56] Asaka
    No, not at all.
[05:57] Asaka
    If anything, she's usually
    cool and businesslike.
[06:00] Asaka
    But she's amicable enough
    that it's not a bad thing.
[06:04] Chika
    That's the impression I had from
    meeting her at the agency as well.
SIGN    A few days later

    As for the anime starting in the fall,
     Under the Purple Sky*...
[06:14] Yumiko
    Hello, everyone!
[06:17] Yumiko(m)
    At first I was worried that*
    a scandal involving
[06:21] Yumiko(m)
    two main cast members would
    negatively affect the show,
[06:25] Yumiko(m)
    but the staff and other voice actresses
    were all friendly and encouraging.
[06:31] Yumiko(m)
    Things have proceeded without a hitch,
[06:32] Producer
    I'd like to give it one more push
    with a special or something.
[06:33] Yumiko(m)
    and we're wrapping recording
    on the last episode.
[06:37] Producer2
    Yeah.
[06:38] Producer2
    I mean, we have Sakuranamiki-san here.
[06:41] Producer2
    Sounds good to me.
[06:43] Producer2
    We could do a review special where the
    voice actresses talk or something.
[06:47] Producer
    But Utatane-san and Yugure-san...
[06:50] Producer
    You know.
[06:51] Producer2
    Yeah, I know, but just using Sakuranamiki-san
     would be too blatant, wouldn't it?
[06:56] Producer2
    After all, their agencies have asked us
    to use them as much as possible.
[07:01] Producer
    I want to, but realistically speaking...
[07:11] Chika
    Sato? What's wrong?
[07:15] Yumiko
    How do you mean?

    Watanabe's acting takes my breath away.
[07:33] Yumiko
    As I am now, I have no chance
    against Yugure Yuhi.
[07:37] Yumiko
    Her acting is so good.
[07:39] Yumiko

    W-Well...
[08:08] Yumiko

[08:13] Yumiko
    Nee-san, they're saying stuff
    about you online too, right?
[08:17] Yumiko
    That you might also be shady because
    you're in a girl group with us...
[08:23] Otome
    Are they saying that?
[08:25] Otome
    I mean, it's just online chatter.
[08:28] Otome
    You don't have to worry about it.
[08:31] Otome
    Since the first time we worked together,
[08:33] Otome
    it's always made me happy that
    you call me "Nee-san,"
[08:37] Otome

    After all, I'm your big sis.
[08:50] Yumiko
    Otome-neesan...
[08:53] Otome
    One more important thing.
[08:56] Otome
    There are lots of people around
    you who want to help you, me included.
[09:01] Otome
    But you should know it's
    not good to bottle things up
[09:05] Otome
    because you're worried
    you might inconvenience someone.
[09:08] Otome
    You have to prioritize
    what you want the most.
[09:13] Chika
    I see. Sakuranamiki-san said that?

    Not to jump on the bandwagon,
[09:19] Chika
    but I get what she means.
[09:22] Chika
    I've also felt something was a little off.
[09:25] Yumiko(m)
    Even Watanabe could tell?
[09:27] Yumiko
    Well, then...
[09:30] Yumiko
    Hey, Asaka-chan?
[09:32] Asaka
    Hmm?
[09:32] Yumiko
    Is our radio show okay the way it is?
[09:37] Asaka
    I think it's fine.
[09:39] Asaka
    Your listener count and inbox have exploded.
[09:42] Yumiko
    Even though we're just talking as ourselves?
[09:45] Asaka
    It's working, though.
[09:48] Asaka
    Why do you ask?
[09:50] Yumiko
    It's been bothering me for a while.
[09:54] Chika
    You say our show is popular,
[09:56] Chika
    but aren't some of those emails negative?
[09:59] Asaka
    Every show gets those.
[10:02] Asaka
    Compared to the rest of your mail,
    they're just a drop in the bucket.
[10:05] Yumiko
    I wanna know more about that drop.
[10:07] Asaka
    I don't think you should bother.
[10:12] Asaka
    Most of it is stuff like, "I'm surprised you
    can still do this show after deceiving people."
[10:17] Asaka
    Or "I bet they only pretend
    to not like each other."
[10:20] Asaka
    Or "I liked it better before."
    Stuff like that.
[10:22] Asaka
    Do you really want to hear all that?
[10:25] Chika
    No.
[10:26] Chika
    Sorry for making you say it.
[10:28] Asaka
    It's okay.
[10:29] Asaka
    Though I did think you were going to ask
    how to get into your roles or something.
[10:34] Yumiko
    Get into our roles?
[10:36] Asaka
    I mean, you've been told to emphasize
    your real personalities, right?
[10:41] Asaka
    I was thinking maybe you've
    overextended in that regard.
[10:44] Chika
    Well, of course, it can be a bit stifling,
[10:48] Chika
    but it's not like we're playing other people.
[10:51] Chika
    Besides, isn't it bad to think that way?
[10:54] Asaka
    Regardless of the situation,
[10:56] Asaka
    it's not wrong to think
    "playing this character is tough."
[11:00] Asaka
    From where I'm sitting,
[11:02] Asaka
    it seems like you guys are
    having a tougher time than before.
[11:05] Asaka
    There are lots of voice actors
    who go with their real personalities,
[11:09] Asaka
    and acting like someone who's
    you but not quite can be really stressful.
[11:15] Yumiko
    Then what do you do
     if you have that problem, Asaka-chan?
[11:20] Asaka
    Either you live with that stifling
    feeling for the rest of your life
[11:24] Asaka
    or you stop playing that character, I guess.
[11:33] Yumiko
    What's up?
[11:35] Chika
    It's my mother.
[11:37] Chika
    She's waiting at the agency.
[11:40] Chika
    She wants me to come talk about my future.
[12:00] Chika's Mom
    What are you two doing here?
[12:01] Chika's Mom
    This doesn't concern you.
[12:03] Yumiko
    Since I'm doing a radio show with Chika-san,
[12:06] Yumiko
    I think this does concern me.
[12:09] Chika
    I asked Dad to come.
[12:11] Chika's Mom
    I'm fine with Yumiko-chan,
[12:13] Chika's Mom
    but you have no right to say anything.
    You're just going to get in the way.
[12:17] Kamishiro
    I'm only here because Chika
    asked me to be here for her.
[12:22] Kashima
    Now, then, Watanabe-san,
[12:24] Kashima
    what did you want to discuss today?
SIGN     Found where Yugure Yuhi lives
    
    1. Voiceless anonymous
    I followed her after school, but man,
     that's a nice place lol
    
    2. Voiceless anonymous
    What's her apartment number?
    
    3. Voiceless anonymous
    Literally a crime
[12:27] Chika's Mom
    Have a look at this.
[12:29] Mom
    There's a picture online of
    the building where Chika and I live.
[12:35] Yumiko
    Does that mean they figured it out?!
[12:37] Chika's Mom
    Yes. They weren't able to determine
    our apartment number,
[12:42] Chika's Mom
    but this puts Chika in a very
    dangerous situation.
[12:45] Chika's Mom
    I won't stand for it any longer.
[12:48] Chika's Mom
    I'd like her to quit voice acting.
[12:50] Chika
    Mom!
[12:51] Naruse
    But...
[12:53] Kashima
    It's the agency's fault
     things have gone this far.
[12:58] Kashima
    I am deeply sorry for that.
[13:00] Kashima
    However, Watanabe-san—
[13:01] Chika
    Mom!
[13:02] Chika
    We didn't talk about this at all!
[13:05] Chika's Mom
    Your opinion is irrelevant.
[13:07] Chika's Mom
    Once something happens, it'll be too late.
[13:09] Kamishiro
    Even so, it's cruel to ask her
     to quit right now.
[13:13] Chika's Mom
    You don't even care that your
    daughter is facing imminent danger?
[13:18] Kamishiro
    I agree that precautions need to be taken.
[13:21] Kamishiro
    But my point is that quitting
    voice acting is too extreme.
[13:25] Chika's Mom
    If we care about Chika's safety,
[13:27] Chika's Mom
    it's best to tackle the root problem.
[13:29] Chika's Mom
    Voice acting isn't worth it
    if it puts her in harm's way.
[13:34] Kamishiro
    But Chika's gifted. She's even landed
    the lead role in an anime.
[13:39] Kamishiro
    If she quits now, it will cause
     trouble for a lot of people.
[13:42] Chika's Mom
    How can you say that as her father?!
[13:45] Chika's Mom
    I really hate that about you.
[13:48] Chika
    Enough!
[13:49] Chika
    If you're so against it, I'll move out!
[13:52] Chika
    I'll move in with Dad!
[13:54] Chika's Mom
    I have sole custody.
[13:57] Chika's Mom
    As you're a minor, there should be no issues
    with your guardian dissolving your contract.
[14:02] Chika's Mom
    If you really insist on being a voice actress,
[14:05] Chika's Mom
    at least wait until you graduate high school.
[14:07] Naruse
    A-A year and a half?
[14:09] Naruse
    That's really too long...
[14:11] Yumiko
    H-Hold on just a minute.
[14:13] Yumiko
    Yugure Yuhi quitting would be terrible.
[14:16] Yumiko
    Our radio show is just taking off.
[14:19] Chika's Mom
    I do think that's regrettable,
[14:21] Chika's Mom
    but you'll just have to end it.
[14:23] Yumiko
    I-I don't want... Watanabe to quit.
[14:29] Chika's Mom
    Your feelings are irrelevant.
[14:31] Chika's Mom
    The problem is that there are
    people with ill intent out there.
[14:35] Yumiko
    Then I-I'll tell those people...
[14:40] Chika's Mom
    Huh?
[14:41] Yumiko
    I'll tell them, "This is seriously harmful,
     so please stop doing it!"
[14:47] Chika's Mom
    And you think they'll relent
     if you ask them to?
[14:51] Yumiko
    That's what I believe.
[14:54] Chika's Mom
    Then how about this?
[14:57] Chika's Mom
    At a specific date and time, you post,
[14:59] Chika's Mom
    "After school, I'm going to go to the
    station via the shopping arcade.
[15:03] Chika's Mom
    But everybody, please don't come.
[15:06] Chika's Mom
    If anyone talks to me,
    I'm going to quit voice acting."
[15:13] Chika's Mom
    If no one actually comes to bother you,
[15:16] Chika's Mom
    I'll forgo putting Chika on hiatus.
[15:20] Yumiko
    There's no way...
[15:21] Chika
    I'll do it.
[15:23] Chika
    If I have to go on hiatus anyway,
[15:25] Chika
    I can accept it if my fans drive
    the final nail in the coffin.
[15:28] Chika's Mom
    What? What are you getting so serious for?
[15:32] Chika's Mom
    I was obviously joking.
[15:34] Chika's Mom
    I would never let you do that.
[15:37] Naruse
    Ma'am, please let us come up with a plan.
[15:40] Naruse
    I think that's a bit too harsh,
[15:43] Naruse
    but please, anything so she can
     continue voice acting!
[15:48] Yumiko
    If it means Watanabe can keep going,
    I'll do everything in my power to help, too!
[15:56] Chika's Mom
    Then let's do it this way.
[15:58] Chika's Mom
    Yumiko-chan, you'll also wager your voice
    acting career and go along with my joke.
[16:04] Yumiko
    Huh?
[16:05] Chika's Mom
    If anyone talks to you on your
    way home, you go on hiatus.
[16:09] Chika's Mom
    It's perfect, right?
[16:11] Chika's Mom
    You believe in your fans, don't you?
[16:32] Chika
    Sorry for staying over out of the blue.
[16:35] Yumiko
    I don't mind that...
[16:38] Yumiko
    but why are you in here with me?!
[16:40] Chika
    It's a bit small for the two of us, huh?
[16:42] Yumiko
    I told you so!
[16:47] Yumiko
    Let's think of something.
[16:48] Yumiko
    A way to continue voice acting.
[16:51] Yumiko
    Going on hiatus is out of the question.
[16:53] Yumiko
    Right?
[16:55] Chika
    Naturally, I feel the same way.
[16:58] Chika
    But my mother doesn't listen
    when she gets like this.
[17:03] Chika
    Hey, can I talk about something
    totally different?
[17:08] Yumiko
    Sure. I'd love that, actually.
[17:11] Chika
    Yubisaki-san is practically
    the same height as me.
[17:16] Yumiko
    Yeah, you're right.
[17:18] Chika
    But even so, her breasts
    are quite respectable.
[17:24] Chika
    Sato, can I ask for a favor?
[17:27] Yumiko
    You can't touch my boobs!
[17:29] Chika
    I didn't even say anything.
[17:32] Chika
    That exchange with my mother
    was really depressing,
[17:36] Chika
    so I'm really upset...
[17:42] Yumiko
    No fair, Onee-chan.
[17:44] Yumiko
    If you're that upset about it,
[17:46] Yumiko
    you can touch them.
[17:49] Chika
    Thank you, Sato!
[17:51] Chika
    I knew you'd have mercy on me.
[17:53] Yumiko
    You are really twisted.
[18:02] Yumiko(m)
    Do I have to just sit by and watch
    as Watanabe's forced into hiatus?
[18:07] Yumiko(m)
    I can't do that.
[18:09] Yumiko(m)
    But...
[18:11] Yumiko(m)
    Even if I go in on the wager,
    there's no way it'll work out.
[18:16] Yumiko(m)
    And then I'll be on hiatus, too.
[18:21] Yumiko(m)
    Would I quit voice acting?
[18:24] Yumiko(m)
    No way! I only just made it.
    I've worked so hard for this.
[18:30] Yumiko(m)
    I haven't even managed 
    to audition for Pritia*...
[18:34] Yumiko's Mom
    Yu-chan's sure a sweet girl.
[18:37] Yumiko
    Yeah.
[18:38] Yumiko's Mom
    Will she come over again?
[18:41] Yumiko
    Yeah.
[18:49] Yumiko's Mom
    What do you think you should do?
[18:51] Yumiko
    I don't know.
[18:54] Yumiko's Mom
    What do you want to do?
[18:56] Yumiko
    I don't know.
[18:58] Yumiko's Mom
    I'm sorry. This isn't
    the right way to go about it.
[19:02] Yumiko's Mom
    This isn't something you kids
    should have to worry about.
[19:06] Yumiko's Mom
    I actually have something to say.
[19:09] Yumiko's Mom
    Could you get your managers,
    Yu-chan, and her mother together?
[19:14] Yumiko
    Huh?
[19:17] Yumiko's Mom
    I'm sorry for asking you here
    when you're all so busy.
[19:21] Kagasaki
    Er, then what did you want
     to discuss today, ma'am?
[19:26] Yumiko's Mom
    It's about yesterday.
[19:29] Yumiko's Mom
    I understand how Chika-chan's mom feels.
     I really do.
[19:33] Yumiko's Mom
    I mean, there's so much to worry about.
[19:37] Chika's Mom
    Indeed.
[19:38] Kagasaki
    I heard about what happened as well, so...
[19:42] Yumiko's Mom
    Good. I was also thinking of having
    Yumiko go on hiatus until she graduates.
[19:49] Yumiko
    Mom?!
[19:50] Yumiko's Mom
    I mean, Yumiko's in the
     same boat as Chika-chan.
[19:54] Yumiko's Mom
    But I can't bring myself to tell her to quit.
[19:58] Yumiko's Mom
    When I heard you actually went and did it,
[20:01] Yumiko's Mom
    it gave me the courage to do the same.
[20:04] Kagasaki
    Ma'am, what about how Yumiko feels?
[20:08] Kagasaki
    This is so one-sided.
[20:10] Yumiko's Mom
    I hear a parent has the right to ignore that,
[20:14] Yumiko's Mom
    so please keep your opinions to yourself.
[20:18] Yumiko's Mom
    But I also heard Chika-chan's
    mom had a fun little wager.
[20:23] Yumiko's Mom
    If the girls can prove their fans have no ill
    intent, she'll allow Chika-chan to keep going.
[20:28] Yumiko's Mom
    I think that sounds like it's worth trying.
[20:32] Chika
    Please! You can't do this for me.
[20:35] Chika
    It's annoying!
[20:37] Yumiko's Mom
    I'm sorry, but this is a family affair.
[20:41] Chika's Mom
    Are you trying to get to me?
[20:44] Chika's Mom
    Emotionally swaying me won't work.
    I won't retract what I said.
[20:48] Yumiko's Mom
    I know.
[20:49] Yumiko's Mom
    But I'll hold you to your word.
[20:52] Yumiko's Mom
    If the girls win this wager, both of
    them can continue working, right?
[20:57] Chika's Mom
    Are you seriously suggesting that's possible?
[21:00] Yumiko's Mom
    Their chances are nonzero.
[21:03] Chika's Mom
    Suit yourself.
[21:05] Chika's Mom
    If anything, I think Yumiko-chan going
    on hiatus would be a good thing.
[21:10] Chika's Mom
    She's no better off, after all.
[21:15] Yumiko's Mom
    Are you familiar with Witchy Pritia?
[21:19] Chika's Mom
    No.
[21:20] Yumiko's Mom
    It's a long-running morning
    anime for children.
[21:24] Yumiko's Mom
    Many voice actresses aspire
    to get a role on that show.
[21:28] Yumiko's Mom
    In turn, the competition is really fierce,
[21:31] Yumiko's Mom
    so landing a role is really hard.
[21:35] Yumiko's Mom
    Some people even think of joining
    Pritia as a status symbol.
[21:40] Yumiko's Mom
    You said that Yumiko going
    on hiatus would be good.
[21:44] Yumiko's Mom
    But she won't do it.
[21:47] Yumiko's Mom
    Don't underestimate my daughter's resolve.
[21:50] Yumiko's Mom
    Utatane Yasumi is a voice actress 
    who will eventually star in Pritia.
[21:55] Yumiko(m)
    We barely have any chance of success.
[21:58] Yumiko(m)
    But in order for us to keep going,
[22:00] Yumiko(m)
    we have to stake everything*
    on this reckless wager!

[00:09] Yumiko
    Onee-chan!
[00:11] Yumiko
    Over here!
[00:14] Yumiko(m)
    I thought maybe I could cheer
    Watanabe up by inviting her out,
[00:17] Yumiko(m)
    but I never thought she'd actually come.
[00:20] Yumiko(m)
    I can see how all this would
    be really depressing...
[00:35] Yumiko
    Watanabe, is there anything you
    want other than crepes?
[00:39] Chika
    Let me think...
[00:41] Yumiko(m)
    The only way for us to keep being
    voice actresses is to take the wager.
[00:46] Yumiko(m)
    But the way the internet is whipped
    up in a frenzy over it,
[00:50] Yumiko(m)
    there's no way it's gonna work.
[00:52] Yumiko
    Ugh.

[02:43] Mekuru
    I never would've thought the

    Yugure Yuhi wastes time

[02:52] Yumiko

[02:53] Mekuru
    Later.
[02:54] Mekuru
    Some of us take our careers seriously.
[02:58] Yumiko
    She's, like, the worst.
[03:03] Yumiko
    Let's go.
[03:09] Yumiko
    Well, see you later.

[03:13] Yumiko
    Yes?
[03:14] Chika
    If we do end up having to quit voice work,
[03:17] Chika
    do you think every day would be like this?
[03:19] Yumiko
    Huh?
[03:20] Chika
    If I go on hiatus for a year and a half,
[03:23] Chika
    everyone will forget who I am.
[03:27] Chika
    Nobody would want me, and I'd
    no longer be able to do voice acting.
[03:34] Chika
    When I imagine that,
    I get so scared I can barely take it.
[03:39] Chika
    It hurts.
[03:40] Chika
    It's really painful...
[03:42] Chika
    It's like some incredibly dark,
    deep void is filling my chest.
[03:47] Chika
    I had no idea losing my vision of
    the future could feel this terrible.
[03:52] Yumiko(m)
    I get that.
[03:53] Yumiko(m)
    That's how I've been feeling all along.
[03:56] Yumiko(m)
    So you finally understand?
[03:58] Yumiko(m)
    You were so popular from day one,
[04:01] Yumiko(m)
    I guess you've never felt
    anything like this before.
[04:06] Chika
    Thank you for taking me out today.
[04:08] Chika
    It made me feel a little better.
[04:11] Yumiko(m)
    How could I even think that...?
[04:15] Yumiko
    You know, it's not set in stone
    that we'll be going on hiatus.
[04:19] Yumiko
    We've got a lot to think about,
[04:20] Yumiko
    like how we'll announce the deal and stuff.
[04:24] Yumiko
    But until then, let's just focus
    on the work right in front of us.

    You're right.

    I'm so happy!
[04:44] Yumiko
    You're sure in high spirits, Nee-san.
[04:46] Otome
    Of course I am!
[04:48] Otome
    It's not every day that you
    get to meet your fans!
[04:52] Otome
    I can't wait to chat with them.
[04:55] Yumiko(m)
    Nee-san, you're blinding...
[04:59] Kagasaki
    Yumiko.
[05:00] Kagasaki
    There's no need to be nervous.
[05:03] Kagasaki
    Do what you always do,
    just like you always do.
[05:06] Naruse
    W-We're going to be here too!
[05:08] Naruse
    So don't you worry.
    Just mingle with your fans.
[05:12] Yumiko(m)
    This is our first event
    since the incident.
[05:16] Yumiko(m)
    We have more staff today than
    for a normal meet and greet like this.
[05:20] Yumiko(m)
    Having Otome-neesan as the main
    attraction was strategic, too.
[05:23] Yumiko(m)
    They're hoping nobody
    will say anything too nasty
[05:27] Yumiko(m)
    in front of Sakuranamiki Otome.
[05:31] Yumiko(m)
    I'm still nervous, though.
[05:33] Yumiko(m)
    Not to mention...
[05:34] Yumiko
    Kagasaki-san.
[05:36] Yumiko
    Don't you think we should be
    dressed up like how we used to?
[05:40] Kagasaki
    I don't think so.
[05:42] Kagasaki
    These are your personas now,
    so this is fine.
[05:44] Kagasaki
    I think you look very Yumiko-esque.
[05:48] Yumiko(m)
    I guess if we're enforcing these
    personas, this is for the best.
[05:54] FanA
    Y-Your show earlier was amazing!
[05:57] Otome
    My show?
[05:59] Otome
    You came to see it?
[06:00] Otome
    Thank you! That makes me so happy.
[06:02] Otome
    I had so much fun with it.
[06:03] Yumiko(m)
    The strategy is going exactly as planned.
[06:05] FanA
    I wish you all the best!
[06:07] Chika
    Thank you...
[06:10] FanA
    I-I'm rooting for you.
[06:12] Chika
    I'll work hard.
[06:14] Chika
    Thank you for coming today...
[06:16] Yumiko
    Hey, you came last time, too!
[06:18] Yumiko
    I remember you!
[06:20] Yumiko
    Thanks a bunch!
[06:21] FanE
    Th-Thank you.
[06:23] Yumiko
    Come again!
[06:27] Yumiko(m)
    I'm just being myself,
[06:30] Yumiko(m)
    so why is it so hard?
[06:32] Yumiko(m)
    It's not like anyone's expecting
    me to be especially bubbly.
[06:36] Yumiko(m)
    And I can even tell what
    kind of fans want that...
[06:40] Yumiko(m)
    But if Watanabe and I want
    to build these personas,
[06:43] Yumiko(m)
    we can't change our behavior.
[06:45] Yumiko(m)
    This was never an issue
    for the previous "Utatane Yasumi."
[06:52] Otome
    Thanks for coming out today!
[06:54] Yumiko(m)
    A girl all by herself?
[06:56] Yumiko(m)
    That's rare.

    I'm rooting for you! I love you!
     You give me life!
[07:12] Mekuru
    Thank you for everything!
[07:16] Otome
    I'm so happy!
[07:17] Otome
    Thank you so much!
[07:21] Chika
    Thank you very much.
[07:23] Mekuru
    I love your singing so much!
    It's too good! It's a national treasure!
[07:26] Mekuru
    And your acting is so amazing that
    I'm always captivated! It's the best!
[07:29] Yumiko
    This girl is really passionate...
[07:32] Yumiko
    I'm amazed that I can understand her
    with how fast she's talking.
[07:36] Mekuru
    Good luck with everything! I love you!
[07:41] Yumiko
    Thanks for coming!
[07:47] Mekuru
    Yasu-Yasu, I'm so happy I get to meet you!
[07:50] Mekuru
    I've loved you since Plastic Girls!
[07:52] Mekuru
    Mari-chan was my favorite!
    I bought a ton of merch!
[07:54] Mekuru
    I really love your singing, too!
[07:56] Mekuru
    I listen to all of your character songs!
[07:58] Mekuru
    I'm so happy I get to hear
    you sing with Heart Tart!
[08:01] Mekuru
    Your acting was really great 
    in Under the Purple Sky, too!
[08:03] Mekuru
    I love you!
[08:05] Yumiko
    Thanks so much!
[08:07] Yumiko
    That makes me really happy!
[08:10] Yumiko
    I hope you'll keep supporting me.
[08:13] Yumiko
    Please come see me again if you can.
[08:16] Yumiko
    I'll be waiting for you.
[08:20] Mekuru
    Yasu-Yasu, I really love you...
[08:23] Mekuru
    But...
[08:25] Mekuru
    I'm sad I won't ever get to see
    the old Yasu-Yasu ever again.
[08:32] Mekuru
    I-I-I'm so sorry!
[08:34] Mekuru
    I really didn't mean to say that!
[08:35] Mekuru
    I-I'll go now!
[08:37] Yumiko
    Wait!
[08:38] Yumiko
    Did you just say you're sad
    you won't get to see me?
[08:43] Yumiko(m)
    I can't just ignore that.
[08:46] Yumiko(m)
    I feel like I'm on the verge
    of cracking something here.
[08:49] Mekuru
    Um, I didn't mean to!
[08:53] Mekuru
    I'm so sorry.
[08:56] Yumiko
    Yubisaki-san?
[08:59] Mekuru
    L-Let go of me!
[09:01] Yumiko
    I just want to ask you something.
[09:03] Yumiko
    There's a cafe on the top floor of this
    building. Please wait for me there.
[09:07] Mekuru
    What for?
[09:08] Yumiko
    Do you want this to get out?
[09:11] Staff
    Excuse me.
[09:13] Yumiko
    I'm sorry!
[09:14] Yumiko
    I really loved her hat,
[09:16] Yumiko
    so I was just asking about the brand.
[09:22] Chika
    I wasn't expecting that.
[09:24] Yumiko
    Yeah.
[09:25] Chika
    Yubisaki-san is bawling.
[09:29] Yumiko
    Yeah...
[09:30] Yumiko
    Why are you crying like that?
[09:33] Mekuru
    Because this is the worst!
[09:35] Mekuru
    I didn't want anyone to know,
[09:37] Mekuru
    yet you had to be the ones who found out!
[09:39] Mekuru
    This is so shameful!
[09:41] Mekuru
    I'd rather be dead!
[09:45] Mekuru
    If I grovel at your feet, will you forgive me?
[09:48] Mekuru
    If I apologize for everything until now
[09:51] Mekuru
    and grovel naked at your feet,
    will you keep it a secret?
[09:54] Yumiko
    Whoa.
[09:55] Yumiko
    What do you take us for, horrible monsters?
[09:57] Mekuru
    I do.
[09:59] Yumiko
    Yeah, okay, groveling naked
    sounds pretty good.
[10:02] Chika
    So, I still don't know what to think of this,
[10:06] Chika
    but are you actually a fan of ours?
[10:09] Mekuru
    I am. I unironically love you.
[10:12] Yumiko
    That explains why you knew so much about us.
[10:16] Mekuru
    I was so happy when I won the raffle
    for the meet and greet release.
[10:20] Mekuru
    I had work, but miraculously,
    I was able to make it on time.
[10:23] Chika
    W-Wait a minute!
[10:25] Chika
    But you were totally furious at us before.
[10:29] Chika
    What was that all about?
[10:31] Mekuru
    That was entirely genuine, too.
[10:34] Mekuru
    It's true that I'm a fan,
[10:36] Mekuru
    and it's also true that I'm mad.
[10:38] Mekuru
    As your senior voice actress,
    I found your behavior unacceptable.
[10:42] Mekuru
    That's why I needed to say my piece.
[10:45] Mekuru
    Plus, it was really annoying that I
    had to help clean up your mess.
[10:49] Chika
    So you can really draw that line?
[10:51] Chika
    You adore us so much in real life,
    but you hate us at work?
[10:55] Mekuru
    You're the same way.
[10:56] Mekuru
    Even though you don't like your
    partner, you don't let it show.
[11:00] Mekuru
    It's like that, but flipped around.
[11:02] Mekuru
    I don't want my work
    to encroach on my private life.
[11:05] Mekuru
    I'm just a lot more strict about it than most.
[11:08] Yumiko
    You aren't hiding something else?
[11:12] Yumiko
    I mean, I understand wanting to keep
    your work and private live separate.
[11:15] Yumiko
    But this is over the top.
[11:17] Yumiko
    Like you're really trying to build a wall.
[11:20] Mekuru
    I'm the type of person who got into voice
    acting because I adored the actresses so much.
[11:25] Mekuru
    At my core, I'm just a superfan nerd.
[11:27] Mekuru
    In fact, I still am...
[11:31] Mekuru
    At heart, I'm still just a fan, okay?!
[11:34] Mekuru
    I love you all so much that I can't help it!
[11:35] Mekuru
    Do you honestly think I could keep
    my cool actually meeting you?!
[11:38] Mekuru
    You casually talk to me
    because we're working together,
[11:41] Mekuru
    but it's too much for me!
[11:42] Mekuru
    I couldn't take it if I didn't build a wall!
[11:48] Yumiko
    So you really do like us, huh, Mekuru-chan?
[11:51] Mekuru
    Don't call me that!
[11:54] Mekuru
    I've loved Yasu-Yasu ever since Plastic Girls.
[11:58] Mekuru
    Mari-chan was my all-time favorite.
[12:00] Mekuru
    I loved your performance, blending
    your real voice with the character.
[12:05] Yumiko
    Stop! I'm dying!
[12:07] Yumiko
    You really, seriously like me?!
[12:10] Mekuru
    I do!
[12:11] Mekuru
    I follow your socials and radio show.
[12:14] Mekuru
    I go to your events.
[12:15] Mekuru
    I even went to the Plastic Girls live event.
[12:17] Mekuru
    After Mari-chan's solo song, hearing your
    catchphrase over the speakers made me cry.
[12:17] Yumiko(overlap)
    Wow, you really do love me, huh?
[12:20] Mekuru
    Just remembering it has me in tears.
[12:25] Yumiko
    "You hold it right there!"
[12:26] Sign
    Plastic Girls
    Episode 14 "Marigold"
[12:26] Yumiko
    "I won't tolerate this!"
[12:30] Mekuru
    You can't do that to me!
[12:32] Mekuru
    It's just cruel!
[12:33] Chika
    Sato, we're here for a reason...
[12:36] Yumiko
    Oh, yeah.
[12:38] Yumiko
    I invited you here because
    there's something I want to ask you.
[12:42] Yumiko
    At the meet and greet event,
[12:45] Yumiko
    you said you were sad because
    you'd never get to see the old me again.
[12:49] Yumiko
    I want to know what you meant by that.
[12:52] Mekuru
    Precisely what I said.
[12:55] Mekuru
    Yasu-Yasu, I've liked you ever since
    your debut. You too, Yuhime.
[13:01] Mekuru
    But what made me fall in love with Utatane
    Yasumi was the cute, cheery way she talked.
[13:06] Mekuru
    And with Yugure Yuhi, her refined, gentle demeanor.
[13:09] Mekuru
    Nothing like you are now.
[13:11] Chika
    But, Yubisaki-san,
[13:13] Chika
    you must have seen what I was
    really like at the office.
[13:16] Chika
    And you still liked my persona?
[13:20] Mekuru
    Who cares what you're really like?
[13:22] Mekuru
    Every voice actress, to some degree,
     puts on an act when they face the public.
[13:27] Mekuru
    I'm no exception.
[13:28] Mekuru
    I didn't like you as our agency's little star
[13:31] Mekuru
    but as the Yugure Yuhi I saw on the screen.
[13:35] Mekuru
    After that casting couch rumor,
[13:37] Mekuru
    the two of you decided to run
    with your real personalities.
[13:41] Mekuru
    It was good for your radio show,
     so your agencies were on board.
[13:45] Mekuru
    You're rebranding yourselves.
[13:48] Mekuru
    But... what the hell?!
[13:51] Mekuru
    What about the people who
    liked who you were before?!
[13:54] Mekuru
    What about how I feel?
[13:56] Mekuru
    I know you made the best of the situation!
[13:59] Mekuru
    But this isn't about reason!
[14:00] Mekuru
    My two favorite voice
    actresses are just suddenly gone,
[14:03] Mekuru
    and two totally different
    people took their place!
[14:05] Mekuru
    How could I not be upset about that?!
[14:08] Mekuru
    As a voice actress and as a fan...
[14:12] Mekuru
    I really hate you two.
[14:16] Yumiko(m)
    I guess this is exactly what was bugging me.
[14:20] Yumiko(m)
    Is it really okay for us to stay this way?
[14:23] Yumiko(m)
    Is just assuming these new personas enough?
[14:25] Yumiko(m)
    We were questioning ourselves for leaving
    behind fans like Yubisaki-san
[14:33] Yumiko(m)
    who liked us from before.
[14:42] Yumiko
    Sorry for calling you here all
    of a sudden, Asaka-chan.
[14:45] Asaka
    It's fine.
[14:47] Asaka
    But what's this favor you need?
[14:49] Yumiko
    We'd like you to film a video.
[14:51] Yumiko
    We want to send our fans a message.
[14:55] Asaka
    Like what you did before?
[14:58] Asaka
    Your agencies were pretty upset over that.
[15:00] Asaka
    Maybe you just shouldn't?
[15:02] Chika
    It'll be fine.
[15:04] Chika
    This time it won't be a
    livestream, just a video.
[15:06] Chika
    We won't release it until we get
    approval from our managers.
[15:11] Asaka
    Well, if that's the case...
[15:16] Chika
    I'm Yugure Yuhi.
[15:18] Yumiko
    And I'm Utatane Yasumi.
[15:20] Yumiko
    We're recording this video because we
    wanted to reach out to our longtime fans.
[15:27] Yumiko
    Recently, a former fan said something to us...
[15:30] Yumiko
    That they liked who we were before,
[15:33] Yumiko
    not the people we are now.
[15:35] Yumiko
    When they see us now,
[15:37] Yumiko
    it makes them sad because it feels
    like our old selves are gone.
[15:40] Yumiko
    We hadn't fully considered that.
[15:44] Chika
    I think we hurt some
    of our longest-standing fans.
[15:48] Chika
    Even though you've been supporting us
    for so long, we acted like that meant nothing.
[15:53] Both
    We're very sorry for that.
[15:56] Chika
    The other reason we're recording this
    is because we have something else to tell you.
[16:04] Chika's Mom
    You'll walk from here to the station,
    going through the shopping arcade.
[16:08] Chika's Mom
    If nobody talks to you, then you two
    win, and I won't say another word.
[16:14] Chika's Mom
    Otherwise, you're on hiatus
    from voice acting until you graduate.
[16:19] Chika
    Fine.
[16:24] Yumiko
    They're probably here because of our video.
[16:28] Chika's Mom
    I already know how this will end.
[16:31] Chika's Mom
    Chika, if you try to...
[16:33] Chika
    Let's go, already.
[16:34] Chika
    We're wasting time.
[16:36] Chika's Mom
    Then I'll follow and watch.
[16:40] Yumiko(m)
    I know that asking you all to forgive us
    is honestly more than we deserve.
[16:48] Yumiko(m)
    Maybe we're just being self-indulgent,
[16:50] Yumiko(m)
    but I really want to face everyone
    who's supported us.
[16:55] Yumiko(m)
    But now that it's time, it's super scary.
[16:59] Yumiko(m)
    I don't want to go on hiatus.
[17:04] Yumiko
    W-Watanabe?
[17:05] Chika
    If you're worried, well,
    just look at me right next to you.
[17:09] Chika
    When you realize you're not alone,
    things should get easier.
[17:16] (Flashback) Yumiko
    When you realize you're not alone,
    things should get easier.
[17:20] Chika
    I'm reliable enough, aren't I?
[17:25] Yumiko
    That's right.
[17:26] Yumiko
    I've got Yugure Yuhi by my side.
[17:30] Yumiko
    Thinking like that, I feel better.
[17:32] Chika
    I really hate that side of you.
[17:50] Yumiko(m)
    I thought this would be over right away,
[17:53] Yumiko(m)
    but maybe these people are here to watch...
[17:58] Yumiko(m)
    If that's the case,
[18:01] Yumiko(m)
    maybe we can actually
    make it out unscathed...
[18:10] FanA
    E-Excuse me! Could I ask you
     for some directions?
[18:13] FanH
    What?
[18:14] FanH
    I'm busy right now.
[18:15] FanA
    I really need help!
[18:16] FanH
    I've gotta do this right now.
[18:18] FanA
    So do I!
[18:20] FanH
    Are you trying to defend them?!
[18:22] FanH
    They've been deceiving us!
[18:24] FanH
    You're cool with that?
[18:25] FanH
    No way, right?!
[18:26] FanH
    So I'm going to speak my mind!
[18:27] FanH
    If that means they have to quit,
    they did it to themselves!
[18:31] FanA
    I'm not okay with it!
[18:32] FanA
    I really loved Yuhime!
[18:34] FanH
    Then why are you trying to stop me?
[18:36] FanA
    Because I still... I still love her!
[18:40] FanA
    I want to keep supporting her!
[18:42] FanA
    I don't want her to go away!
[18:45] FanA
    Please, keep walking!
[18:47] FanG
    Okay! If he won't say it, then I will!
[18:49] FanB
    I-I won't let you through!
[18:52] FanB
    P-Please don't!
[18:53] FanG
    Get out of my way.
[18:55] FanG
    The Yasu-Yasu I loved was fake!
[18:57] FanG
    I'll never forgive her!
[19:00] FanB
    Learning that Yasu-Yasu lied
    to us made me sad, too.
[19:04] FanB
    But I don't want her to stop working!
[19:07] FanB
    Even when bad things happened at school,
[19:09] FanB
    hearing Yasu-Yasu's voice
    always cheered me up.
[19:12] FanB
    She helped me through tough times!
[19:14] FanB
    Please, just go!
[19:17] FanB
    D-Don't stop.
[19:19] FanB
    Whatever you do,
    please don't stop voice acting!
[19:23] FanP
    I'm just talking to myself!
[19:24] FanP
    I don't like who you are right now,
[19:26] FanP
    but I still don't want you
    to quit voice acting!
[19:30] FanC
    You're in Phantom, right?
[19:31] FanC
    You can't quit now!
[19:33] FanC
    We want to hear your voice again, Yugure Yuhi!
[19:35] FanC
    I mean, I'm just talking to myself here!
[19:37] FanQ
    I'm still waiting for more Plastic Girls!
[19:40] FanQ
    It'll suck if Utatane Yasumi
    isn't part of it!
[19:42] FanQ
    But I'm just talking to myself, too!
[19:47] Yumiko(m)
    We're almost at the station!
[19:49] Yumiko(m)
    Just a little farther!
[19:54] Yumiko
    This is as far as we go...
[19:56] Yumiko(m)
    But at least we got to hear everyone out.
[20:00] Yumiko(m)
    The last thing we got to hear was
    our fans wishing for us to keep going.

[20:09] Chika

[20:15] Mekuru
    But I love you, too!
[20:16] Mekuru
    I want you to continue voice acting!
[20:18] FanR
    What the hell?!
[20:23] Mekuru
    Run!
[20:24] All
    Run!
[20:24] Mekuru
    Just keep going, you two!
[20:26] All
    Go, go!
[20:27] All
    Just a little more!
[20:32] Chika
    I'm... I'm just talking to myself right now!
[20:36] Chika
    But I'm going to keep voice acting!
[20:39] Chika
    I'll never giving up again!
[20:42] Chika
    I will always, always give my best!
[20:44] Chika
    And it's all because of you!
[20:47] Yumiko
    I'm just talking to myself, too.
[20:50] Yumiko
    But I'm also going to continue
    voice acting forever!
[20:53] Yumiko
    I'll never quit!
[20:55] Yumiko
    Thank you!

    Everyone, thank you so much!

[00:06] Chika
    She really does live close to work.
[00:10] Chika
    This is a pretty nice place, too.
[00:13] Chika
    I guess series scriptwriters make good money.
[00:16] Yumiko
    Asaka-chan works so much.
[00:21] Chika
    That's freaky.
[00:23] Chika
    I didn't know you two were so close
    that you had a key to her place.
[00:27] Yumiko
    I just borrowed it after
    the recording we did.
[00:30] Yumiko
    I'm giving it back to her today.
[00:33] Yumiko
    On her days off,
[00:35] Yumiko
    Asaka-chan always sleeps in.
[00:37] Yumiko
    So just ringing the bell won't cut it.
[00:41] Chika
    Why didn't we arrange to meet
     in the afternoon, then?
[00:44] Chika

[06:48] Kagasaki
    The reason I asked you to come today
    is that we received an audition offer for you.
[06:54] Yumiko
    Huh. That's rare.
[06:57] Yumiko
    What kind of role is it?
[06:58] Yumiko
    What's the project?
[07:00] Kagasaki
    It's an offer for
    Illusionary Mecha Soldier Phantom.
[07:03] Kagasaki
    The role of Shirayuri Mei.
[07:06] Yumiko
    What?
[07:07] Kagasaki
    She's the nemesis of the main
    character, Sakuraba Hatsune,
[07:11] Kagasaki
    and part of a very crucial storyline.
[07:13] Yumiko
    I-I don't understand.
[07:15] Yumiko
    Kamishiro's animes always use
    veterans and top-tier actors.
[07:19] Yumiko
    Did you pull something, Kagasaki-san?
[07:22] Kagasaki
    Nothing of the sort.
[07:24] Kagasaki
    But I've heard they're having trouble
    finding the right person for Shirayuri
[07:30] Kagasaki
    and that Sugishita-san,
    the sound director, requested you.
[07:34] Yumiko
    Sugishita-san?
[07:37] Yumiko
    Oh, that reminds me!
     At the audition last week...
[07:43] Kagasaki
    I see.
[07:45] Kagasaki
    I guess he was testing to see if you were
    capable of playing a villain.
[07:49] Yumiko
    I ended up not getting either role,
[07:51] Yumiko
    so I figured I hadn't made
    a good impression on him.
[07:55] Kagasaki
    I'm not surprised by this.
[07:56] Yumiko
    Huh?

[08:42] Yumiko
    When is the audition?
[08:45] Kagasaki
    Tomorrow.

    T-Tomorrow?!
[08:47] Kagasaki
    Ten in the morning.
[08:48] Yumiko
    Ten in the morning?!
[08:51] Yumiko
    That gives me practically
    no time to practice.
[08:54] Kagasaki
    Production seems to be in a rush as well.
[08:57] Kagasaki
    We only got the material today.
[09:01] Yumiko
    Ugh, this is full of jargon.

    I know this sounds tough,
    but don't overdo it.
[09:12] Yumiko
    But...
[09:13] Kagasaki
    It's a Kamishiro anime.
[09:16] Kagasaki

    before I could celebrate.
[13:09] Yumiko(m)

    the one to tell Watanabe.

    performing together again."
[13:22] Yumiko
    Wait, are you saying me getting on

[14:04] Yumiko(m)
    Instead of celebrating that we get
    to work together on a Kamishiro anime,
[14:08] Yumiko(m)
    she's dialing up the rival vibes.
[14:11] Yumiko(m)
    I don't want to lose, especially not
    to Watanabe. Especially not to Yugure Yuhi.
[14:15] Yumiko(m)

[17:45] Yumiko
    Yes?
[17:46] Sugishita
    You're going a little overboard.
[17:49] Sugishita
    Shirayuri doesn't want Sakuraba
    to know she feels inferior to her.
[17:54] Sugishita
    Try it again so that sentiment
     barely shines through.
[17:57] Sugishita
    We can't have her sounding
    clearly unhinged, either.
[18:01] Sugishita
    Just tone everything down a bit, please.
[18:05] Yumiko
    Yes, sir!
[18:06] Yumiko
    Huh. It's been a while, Sakuraba.
[18:09] Yumiko
    We haven't seen each other since graduation,
[18:11] Yumiko
    but do you remember me?
[18:13] Yumiko
    Guess it's hard to recognize me
    with these terrible burns.
[18:16] Sugishita
    Now it's too muted.
[18:18] Sugishita
    Hiding your feelings isn't
    the same as restraining them.
[18:21] Yumiko
    Yes, sir...
[18:23] Yumiko
    I'm Shirayuri Mei.
    We were at the academy together.
[18:27] Yumiko
    Ring a bell?
[18:30] Sugishita
    All right.
[18:31] Sugishita
    Let's go with this that for now.
[18:33] Sugishita
    Please come see me when we're done.
[18:42] Sugishita
    Okay, let's go with that retake for now.
[18:45] Sugishita
    We can adjust it later.
[18:47] Sugishita
    Move on to the next scene, please.

    Yes, sir.

    It's fine.

    In the end, no matter how much I tried,
[19:33] Yumiko(m)
    it wasn't good enough for Sugishita-san.
[19:37] Yumiko(m)
    The best I could manage was the bare
    minimum he was willing to accept.
[19:42] Sugishita
    That said, please keep in mind what we
    talked about today and keep practicing.
[19:47] Sugishita
    Let's kick it up a notch next time.

[20:46] Yumiko

[02:17] Kagasaki
    I wanted to be at the studio for Phantom,
[02:21] Kagasaki
    but the end of the year is always so...
[02:23] Yumiko
    Kagasaki-san,
[02:24] Yumiko
    I'm sorry to ask when you're so busy,
     but I need your help.
[02:27] Yumiko
    The recording session today
    didn't go well at all.
[02:30] Kagasaki
    I heard.
[02:32] Yumiko
    I want you to listen to my acting.
[02:34] Yumiko
    I'll tell you what the sound
    director said as well,
[02:37] Yumiko
    so please tell me what I should do.
[02:50] Yumiko
    How was it?
[02:52] Kagasaki
    And he said that wasn't good enough?
[02:56] Kagasaki
    This is just my interpretation,
[02:59] Kagasaki
    but I think what resonated with the sound
    director was your acting in that audition.
[03:04] Yumiko
    Y-Yeah.
[03:06] Yumiko
    He told me to elevate
     my acting from the audition.
[03:10] Yumiko
    But that's what I did!
[03:12] Yumiko
    I wasn't well prepared for the audition,
[03:15] Yumiko
    so I really wasn't at the top of my game.
[03:17] Yumiko
    That's why I practiced so much and—
[03:19] Kagasaki
    Hold on.
[03:21] Kagasaki
    That's not it.
[03:23] Kagasaki
    My point is that your acting when you 
    weren't prepared was good.
[03:27] Yumiko
    Huh?
[03:28] Yumiko
    Are you saying I shouldn't have practiced?
[03:31] Kagasaki
    That's not what I mean.
[03:33] Kagasaki
    It's good that you understand the character
    and tried adding layers to your performance.
[03:37] Kagasaki
    But I think you might have been
     trying too hard to act.
[03:40] Yumiko
    Trying too hard to act?
[03:42] Kagasaki
    Yeah.
[03:43] Kagasaki
    Think of it this way.
[03:44] Kagasaki
    At a live concert where
    an actor sings as a character...
[03:48] Kagasaki
    For you, let's say Mari from Plastic Girls.
[03:51] Kagasaki
    From the perspective of the actor,
[03:53] Kagasaki
    where is the character you're playing?
[03:55] Yumiko
    Oh, you're talking about how when we sing,
[03:58] Yumiko
    for some actors,
    they approximate the character,
[04:01] Yumiko
    and for others, they inhabit the character
    or wear it like a cloak.
[04:06] Yumiko
    I think I'm the cloak type...
[04:09] Kagasaki
    Exactly.
[04:11] Kagasaki
    In your concerts, you're attuned to Mari,
[04:14] Kagasaki
    so you don't think, "I need to act."
[04:17] Yumiko
    Yeah.
[04:18] Kagasaki
    And at the audition, you weren't just
    "desperately acting as Shirayuri."
[04:23] Kagasaki
    That resonated with the sound director.
[04:25] Kagasaki
    But now you're obviously
    trying to act as Shirayuri.
[04:31] Yumiko
    You might be right.
[04:33] Yumiko
    But then what should I do?
[04:37] Kagasaki
    Don't try to act.
[04:38] Kagasaki
    Summon her.
[04:40] Kagasaki
    Shirayuri's strong emotions are something
    you should be able to understand.
[04:46] Kagasaki
    Superimpose her over you,
    wear her character like a cloak,
[04:49] Kagasaki
    and just talk into the mic.

    Being among so many people is draining.
[13:05] Chika
    Compared to this, being with
    just you is a lot more relaxed.
[13:10] Chika
    Why did you go quiet all of a sudden?
[13:13] Yumiko
    I mean, you're the one
     who said something weird.
[13:17] Chika
    Something weird?
[13:19] Chika
    Oh!
[13:20] Chika
    No, I didn't mean it like that!
[13:24] Chika
    Since I've already embarrassed myself...
[13:27] Chika
    are you free after this?
[13:41] Chika
    So, this is about Phantom.
[13:44] Chika
    My father is the director.
    I'm his daughter and a voice actress.
[13:47] Chika
    Usually, I would never leverage
     our relationship for anything.
[13:51] Chika
    So I'm only going to say this once.
[13:54] Chika
    If you want, I'll ask my father
    to make some time for you.
[13:59] Chika
    If you're struggling with your acting,
[14:01] Chika
    talking to him is bound to be helpful.
[14:07] Yumiko
    I'm sorry.
[14:08] Yumiko
    I already went to talk to Director Kamishiro.
[14:11] Chika
    What?!
[14:12] Chika
    My dad is super busy right now!
[14:15] Yumiko
    Well, yeah, I used some connections...
[14:19] Chika
    There it is!
[14:20] Chika
    I really hate that side of you!
[14:23] Chika
    Sheesh!
[14:24] Chika
    Then fine! This is next!
[14:26] Chika
    For you!
[14:26] Yumiko
    Huh? I didn't bring you anything...
[14:30] Chika
    It's fine! Just take it!
[14:32] Yumiko
    Thank you...
[14:36] Yumiko
    Um, what is this?
[14:38] Chika
    A Blu-ray bundle of Kamishiro anime!
[14:41] Chika
    I picked the series that are 
    the closest to Phantom
[14:44] Chika
    in terms of worldview and interpersonal drama!
[14:46] Chika
    I guarantee they'll be useful!
[14:48] Chika
    You can borrow them,
    so make sure you watch them!
[14:51] Yumiko
    A-Ah, that's... Yeah.
[14:55] Yumiko
    This will definitely be useful.
[14:57] Yumiko
    Thank you.
[14:58] Chika
    I've said this before too,
[15:01] Chika
    but Kamishiro's shows
    aren't just about the robots.
[15:01] Yumiko(m)
    I thought it was a Christmas present.
[15:03] Chika
    The interpersonal drama is superb, and...
[15:04] Yumiko(m)
    But I'm grateful.
[15:06] Yumiko(m)
    Even if she's a bit annoying.
[15:08] Yumiko(m)
    If she'd tried to give me acting advice,
[15:11] Yumiko(m)
    I bet I would have snapped at her.
[15:14] Yumiko(m)
    But this is Watanabe's way
    of trying to help me
[15:17] Yumiko(m)
    without crossing the line.
[15:20] Yumiko
    Because you can't make anime by yourself.
[15:25] Chika
    Did you say something?
[15:26] Yumiko
    Nothing.
[15:28] Yumiko
    Anyway, I owe you for the present.
[15:31] Yumiko
    Watanabe, I'll treat you to something tasty.
[15:34] Chika
    Tasty?
[15:39] Yumiko
    Hey, Onee-chan, you still haven't decided?
[15:42] Chika
    This is a precious opportunity.
[15:44] Chika
    I don't want to make any mistakes.
[15:46] Chika
    I don't want to have regrets, like,
[15:49] Chika
    "Oh, no. I should have
    picked this one instead!"
[15:51] Chika
    I have to do everything in my power
     to make this a success.
[15:54] Yumiko
    Talk about heavy...
[15:57] Yumiko
    At least narrow it down to two choices.
[15:59] Yumiko
    And I'll get whatever you don't.
[16:02] Yumiko
    If we share both,
[16:03] Yumiko
    you at least get to try two things.
[16:07] Chika
    I get nervous when you're nice,
[16:09] Chika
    because it feels like you're up to something.
[16:12] Yumiko
    You little...
[16:18] Yumiko
    Are you sure the extra whipped
    cream was a good idea?
[16:22] Chika
    I like sweet things,
[16:25] Chika
    so I wanted to have plenty.
[16:27] Chika
    Now, let's dig in.
[16:41] Chika
    Sato, you can have my cream...
[16:44] Yumiko
    Don't want it.
[16:44] Yumiko
    I told you so.
[16:46] Chika
    And I chose so carefully...
[16:48] Chika
    My precious pancakes...
[16:51] Yumiko
    Don't worry. We'll come back again.

    Yumiko, your alarm!
[17:08] Yumiko's Mom
    Yumiko! Hold on a second!
[17:11] Yumiko
    What is it, Mom?
[17:13] Yumiko's Mom
    Just put on a smile, okay?
[17:18] Yumiko's Mom
    You cutie pie!
[17:20] Yumiko's Mom
    It'll be fine.
[17:21] Yumiko's Mom
    Get out there and stand tall.
[17:22] Yumiko's Mom
    You worked so hard.
[17:25] Yumiko's Mom
    I'm sure it'll pay off.
[17:26] Yumiko
    Yeah. Thanks, Mom.
[17:29] Yumiko's Mom
    Honestly, if you fail after working that hard,
    you're not cut out for voice acting.
[17:33] Yumiko
    Uh, Mom...

[17:40] Yumiko

[17:47] Kagasaki
    It's time to show off your hard work.
[17:49] Kagasaki
    Ringo-chan is watching over you.
[17:53] Yumiko
    Yeah.
[17:54] Yumiko
    Thank you.
[18:03] Yumiko
    You scared me.
[18:05] Yumiko
    Why didn't you say anything?
[18:07] Chika
    Just so you know, the door
    made a sound when I came in,
[18:10] Chika
    and I also greeted you.
[18:12] Chika
    You're the one who ignored me.
[18:14] Yumiko
    What? No freaking way.
[18:16] Yumiko
    I would've noticed.
[18:17] Chika
    Well, you didn't.
[18:19] Chika
    You were too focused on that.

[19:10] Yumiko
    Well? How do you like being stepped on,
    powerless to do anything?
[19:14] Yumiko
    This kind of humiliation
    must be new for you.
[19:19] Yumiko
    Once upon a time,
[19:20] Yumiko
    this is how you made me feel
    over and over and over!
[19:28] Sugishita
    All right.
[19:29] Sugishita
    One moment, please.
[19:34] Sugishita
    All good.

[19:48] Yumiko(m)
    Oh, that was a joke...
[19:51] Hoshizora
    Good for you.
[19:52] Yumiko
    Thank you.
[19:54] Sugishita
    We'll continue from shot 105.
[19:56] Yumiko
    Yes, sir!
[19:58] Fujimoto
    You've gotten quite bit better.
[20:00] Fujimoto
    That's a load off.
[20:01] Hoshizora
    Really and truly.
[20:03] Hoshizora
    You've come a long way in such a short time.
[20:05] Hoshizora
    You must have worked hard.

     if we faced another retake hell.
[20:11] Fujimoto
    Man, what a relief!
[20:13] Sugishita

[20:14] Yumiko
    Yes, sir?
[20:16] Sugishita
    You did well today.
[20:18] Sugishita
    Your acting was good.
[20:20] Sugishita
    Night and day compared to last time.
[20:21] Sugishita
    However...
[20:23] Yumiko
    H-However?
[20:24] Sugishita
    Don't get complacent now.
[20:27] Sugishita
    You should be able to do more.
[20:29] Sugishita
    One tier higher...
[20:31] Sugishita
    That's the kind of performance we want.
[20:34] Yumiko
    One tier higher...
[20:37] Yumiko
    That means I'm still hitting a wall.
[20:40] Sugishita
    Correct.
[20:41] Sugishita
    Your performance today was passable.
[20:43] Sugishita
    However, it's a long way from being perfect.
[20:46] Sugishita
    You need to rise above where you are now.
[20:50] Sugishita
    That's what we're all hoping for.
[20:54] Yumiko
    Um, Sugishita-san...
[20:57] Yumiko
    Would it be possible for me to rerecord
     my lines from last episode?
[21:01] Yumiko
    Last time went terribly for me.
[21:04] Yumiko
    My performance was neither
    satisfactory nor acceptable.
[21:07] Yumiko
    But now I can do better.
[21:10] Yumiko
    I think I can bring out Shirayuri much more.
[21:14] Sugishita
    Very well.
[21:17] Chika
    In that case,
[21:19] Chika
    I'll be staying as well.
[21:20] Fujimoto
    Oh, Yugure-san is staying?
[21:23] Fujimoto
    Then maybe I'll stay too.
[21:25] Fujimoto
    Gotta act like a senpai from time to time.
[21:27] Hoshizora
    Then I'll show my senpai side as well!

    Let's make something good together.

    No, today's performance was all your—

    We'll begin recording now.

    Have you heard what the prize is?
[05:50] (Flashback) Mekuru
    Yeah, I have.
[05:53] (Flashback) Chika
    Well, we want it.
[05:55] (Flashback) Chika
    This goes against every fiber of my being,
[05:57] (Flashback) Chika
    but just this once,
     I will cooperate with Yasu.
[06:01] (Flashback) Mekuru
    Oh?
[06:02] (Flashback) Mekuru
    Initially, I didn't really care how this went
    down so long as the event goes well,
[06:07] (Flashback) Mekuru
    but seeing you two so invested in it
    makes me want to stop you from winning.
[06:14] (Flashback) Otome
    Good morning!

    Looking forward to today!

[07:42] Yasumi
    so could you handle it?
[07:44] Chika
    I don't mind, but why?
[07:46] Yasumi
    Mekuru and I have the same style,
[07:50] Yasumi
    so instead of settling for a so-so score,
[07:53] Yasumi
    I think we stand a better chance
    of hitting it big with you.
[08:01] Chika
    "But you... hea... am... see,
[08:08] Chika
    please... me."
[08:14] Yasumi
    Hold up. We barely heard anything!
[08:18] Chika
    Because I had no idea it
    would be this embarrassing!
[08:20] Chika
    I can't believe you pushed me
    into something so cringey!
[08:24] Yasumi
    Oh, my god. You're literally
    getting zero applause.
[08:27] Chika
    Zip it already!
[08:29] Chika
    Why didn't you just do it yourself?
[08:31] Yasumi
    If I'd known you'd fail so hard,
     I would have.
[08:34] Yasumi
    I thought it was great, though.
[08:36] Chika
    There it is.
[08:37] Chika
    I really hate that side of you!
[08:39] Mekuru
    All right, you two.
[08:41] Mekuru
    We're moving on!

    Looks like none of us did well.
[10:07] Mekuru
    Still, why did you want the restaurant
    gift certificate so much?
[10:14] Yasumi
    We wanted to use it for you, as a thank-you.
[10:17] Yasumi
    You've done so much for us.
[10:18] Yasumi
    We tried to come up with something
    that would make you happy.
[10:23] Yasumi
    Then we thought about maybe going
    out to eat with Otome-neesan.
[10:26] Chika
    You're a fan of hers, right?
[10:29] Chika
    Getting to dine with her would be
    a pretty unforgettable occasion.
[10:34] Yasumi
    We knew you'd never go
    if we just invited you ourselves.
[10:37] Yasumi
    So we figured if we announced here
[10:39] Yasumi
    that we'd be using the prize
    for a wrap party with all four of us,
[10:42] Yasumi
    you'd have no choice.
[10:44] Yasumi
    Then we could put a bow on the whole thing
    when you reported on your show about it.
[10:49] Mekuru
    In that case, I'm glad
     I stopped you from winning.
[10:52] Mekuru
    I would have hated being
    strong-armed into such a farce.
[10:56] Mekuru
    Either way, this outcome was for the best.
[10:58] Mekuru
    The crowd is happiest when
    Saku-chan gets to shine,
[11:02] Mekuru
    and I managed to dodge your
    little plot, so I'm happy.
[11:05] Mekuru
    And since you guys don't have to worry about thanking me, everyone's happy!
[11:10] Otome
    Hey, everyone!
[11:11] Otome
    Let's take a picture for social media.
[11:14] Mekuru
    Sure thing, Sakuranamiki-san!
[11:18] Yasumi
    Great idea.
[11:19] Yasumi
    Let's do it.
[11:23] Otome
    I'll upload this one, then.

    We've been expecting you.
[11:54] Staff
    This way, please.
[11:56] Yumiko
    I didn't know your real name was Fujii.
[11:59] Yumiko
    That's pretty normal.
[12:01] Mekuru
    Shut up.
[12:03] Mekuru
    I mean, your name is Sato.
[12:05] Yumiko
    So, what's your given name?
[12:08] Mekuru
    Like I'd ever tell you.
[12:11] Yumiko
    Wow. Overdress just a little?
[12:14] Mekuru
    I mean, Saku-chan's coming.
[12:16] Mekuru
    If I'm going to see her,
    I want to look my absolute best.
[12:20] Yumiko
    You realize this isn't a press event, right?
[12:23] Yumiko
    We're here to eat yakiniku.
[12:25] Mekuru
    Says the girl who also looks
    like she's dressed for an event.
[12:29] Yumiko
    No, I just came here straight
    from a shoot at the office.
[12:35] Yumiko
    Anyway, let's figure out the seating.
[12:37] Yumiko
    Where do you want to sit?
[12:39] Mekuru
    Good question.
[12:40] Mekuru
    Across from her, so I can see her face?
[12:43] Mekuru
    Or next to her, so we're physically close?
[12:47] Mekuru
    Which is the right answer?
[12:49] Yumiko
    Good question...
[12:55] Chika
    What's going on here?
[13:06] Yumiko
    Mekuru-chan, why don't
    you try to relax a bit?
[13:09] Mekuru
    Nobody wouldn't be nervous before we start!
[13:12] Yumiko
    Before we start?
[13:15] Yumiko
    You sound like a guest at a live show.
[13:18] Chika
    Yubisaki-san, thank you
    for coming that one time.
[13:24] Mekuru
    Whatever. It's not like I did anything
    you need to thank me for.
[13:29] Mekuru
    I mean, that wasn't Yubisaki Mekuru's
    doing, anyway.
[13:32] Yumiko
    So it was Fujii-san's doing?
[13:35] Mekuru
    Right.
[13:36] Mekuru
    I've got a lot of mixed feelings,
[13:39] Mekuru
    but I still want you to continue.
[13:41] Mekuru
    I don't want you to quit.
[13:43] Mekuru
    But as the voice actress Yubisaki Mekuru,
    I still can't forgive you for what you did.
[13:50] Mekuru
    Don't forget that.
[13:51] Mekuru
    Also, I only came today because it's work.
[13:54] Mekuru
    You won't catch me doing it again.
[13:56] Otome
    I'm sorry.
[13:58] Otome
    I'm late.
[13:59] Mekuru
    Thanks for coming!
[14:01] Yumiko(m)
    It's scary how quickly she changes.
[14:04] Otome
    Guess I'm sitting next to Mekuru-chan.
[14:07] Yumiko(m)
    And... she's frozen.
[14:10] All
    Cheers!
[14:17] Otome
    Nothing beats a drink after work.
[14:20] Yumiko
    This apple juice is good, too!
[14:22] Chika
    Yes.
[14:23] Yumiko
    All right, let's get grilling.
[14:27] Yumiko
    I'll start with salted beef tongue.
[14:28] Otome
    Then I'll serve the salad.
[14:31] Mekuru
    Oh, you shouldn't have to do that!
[14:33] Mekuru
    Please, allow me.
[14:35] Otome
    Come on, no need for formality.
[14:37] Otome
    We're coworkers, after all.
[14:39] Otome
    It's actually been bothering me
    that you're so formal with me.
[14:44] Mekuru
    I've said it before,
[14:47] Mekuru
    but I find it very hard
     not to be with anyone older than me.
[14:50] Chika
    Sato, let me help.
[14:53] Yumiko
    No, you don't need to do anything.
[14:55] Yumiko
    Just sit there quietly.
[14:57] Chika
    What?
[14:58] Chika
    Do you think you're some
    sort of grill magistrate?
[15:01] Chika
    We can both do it.
[15:03] Yumiko
    Since it's you,
[15:05] Yumiko
    you'd probably use the same chopsticks
    for grabbing the raw meat and for eating.
[15:10] Chika
    What's wrong with that?
[15:13] Yumiko
    You moron.
[15:15] Chika
    Excuse me, what are you talking about?
[15:18] Chika
    Is that some kind of rule or something?!
[15:19] Chika
    An unspoken agreement?
[15:21] Chika
    You always try to assert
    your superiority like this!
[15:24] Otome
    Yuhi-chan,
[15:25] Otome
    Yasumi-chan is really good at grilling meat,
[15:28] Otome
    so it might be best to just let her do it.
[15:30] Chika
    All right, then.
[15:33] Yasumi(m)
    She looks like she wants
    to take that home and enshrine it as
[15:36] Yasumi(m)
    "the salad Sakuranamiki Otome served me."
[15:40] Yumiko
    Those look done.
[15:41] Yumiko
    Go ahead and take them.
[15:43] All
    Let's eat!
[15:47] Otome
    That's so good!
[15:48] Mekuru
    It is!
[15:51] Yasumi
    Okay! I'm going to keep grilling!
[15:57] Yumiko(m)
    I'd like to take my mom
    to a place like this sometime.
[16:02] Yumiko(m)
    There was something I wanted to discuss
    with Nee-san and Mekuru-chan,
[16:05] Yumiko(m)
    but I don't think it'll happen today.
[16:09] Yumiko
    Mekuru-chan?!
[16:10] Mekuru
    Oh, Utatane.
[16:13] Yasumi
    Are you all right?
[16:14] Yasumi
    Did you drink too much?
[16:15] Yasumi
    Do you feel ill?
[16:16] Mekuru
    I'm fine!
[16:17] Mekuru
    If anything, I can't get drunk.
[16:19] Yasumi
    What?
[16:20] Mekuru
    Saku-chan is close!
[16:22] Mekuru
    She's so close to me!
[16:24] Mekuru
    How can she be so adorable?!
[16:27] Mekuru
    My all-out love is growing!
[16:30] Mekuru
    Please don't let me get even more obsessed!
[16:33] Yasumi
    Hang on.
[16:35] Yasumi
    Can you please stop gushing to me?
[16:37] Mekuru
    I'm so happy it hurts.
[16:40] Mekuru
    I could just die today...
[16:42] Mekuru
    I'd do anything to have this beautiful
    dream just continue for eternity!
[16:46] Yasumi
    It's that good?
[16:48] Mekuru
    Ow!
[16:49] Yumiko
    A-Are you okay?
[16:51] Mekuru
    Oh, no.
[16:52] Mekuru
    I guess I am drunk.
[16:54] Mekuru
    Just stay away from me.
[16:56] Mekuru
    If I start getting conscious of you as well,
[16:58] Mekuru
    I'm really going to lose it.
[17:02] Yasumi(m)
    Too late for that.
[17:05] Mekuru
    I'll go back now.
[17:09] Yasumi
    Pretty amazing that she can keep
    all that in in front of Nee-san.
[17:14] Chika
    I'm sorry, but I have work in the morning,
[17:18] Chika
    so I should go now.
[17:19] Chika
    Thank you so much for the food,
     Sakuranamiki-san.
[17:22] Chika
    The meat was truly delicious.
[17:24] Otome
    Thanks for coming!
[17:26] Otome
    I'm really glad we got
    to have dinner together.
[17:29] Mekuru
    See ya.
[17:30] Chika
    I'll be off, then.
[17:35] Otome
    Should we order some dessert?
[17:38] Yasumi
    Hey, could I talk to the two of you
     about something?
[17:42] Yasumi
    What do you do when you
    feel blocked, acting-wise?
[17:47] Mekuru
    Is this about Phantom?
[17:50] Yasumi
    It's a really tough project.
[17:52] Yasumi
    I mean, I've improved a ton
    since we started.
[17:55] Yasumi
    I've even been getting some praise
    from the staff and other actors.
[17:58] Yasumi
    But it still feels like I'm
    just barely good enough.
[18:02] Yasumi
    I haven't yet hit the level they want.
[18:05] Yasumi
    The sound director told me outright
[18:07] Yasumi
    that I need to kick it up a notch.
[18:10] Yasumi
    But the wall is so high...
[18:13] Yasumi
    I'm trying to figure out what I have to do
    to get over it and nail my acting.
[18:18] Yasumi
    I feel like I'm already
    doing everything I can.
[18:21] Yasumi
    I'm practicing and studying,
[18:24] Yasumi
    and that's not all...
[18:27] Yasumi
    Ah, I'm sorry.
[18:29] Yasumi
    Um, I was just wondering if the
    two of you had any advice.
[18:35] Otome
    Well, to start...
[18:37] Otome
    O-Oh, wait.
[18:38] Otome
    That probably isn't it.
[18:40] Yasumi
    I don't mind!
[18:42] Yasumi
    If you have any ideas, I'd like to hear them.
[18:45] Otome
    Well, if you insist, I'll tell you.
[18:48] Otome
    I don't think you were prepared enough.
[18:51] Yasumi
    Prepared enough?
[18:53] Yasumi
    Well, I guess there wasn't much time
    between the audition and the recording.
[18:58] Otome
    That's not what I mean.
[18:59] Otome
    I'm talking about knowing what to expect.
[19:01] Otome
    We never know what kind of
    jobs we might be called to do.
[19:05] Otome
    But it behooves you to know
[19:07] Otome
    the typical ways those jobs might play out.
[19:10] Otome
    That was a blind spot for you.
[19:13] Mekuru
    As for me, I'm envious you have
    that kind of problem.
[19:16] Mekuru
    I hardly ever get major character roles.
[19:19] Mekuru
    But there's one thing I can say.
[19:23] Mekuru
    You did your best acting in Plastic Girls.
[19:27] Yasumi
    Really?
[19:28] Yasumi
    Even though I sucked since it was my debut?
[19:31] Mekuru
    I still think that was your best work.
[19:34] Mekuru
    Something about it resonated with me.
[19:37] Mekuru
    Anyway, isn't Yugure there with you?
[19:41] Mekuru
    Have you asked her opinion?
[19:43] Mekuru
    I feel like that would
    be the best thing to do.
[19:46] Mekuru
    I checked the cast,
[19:47] Mekuru
    and you two are probably the closest, no?
[19:50] Mekuru
    You have a similar amount of experience,
    and you're the same age.
[19:53] Mekuru
    You've worked together and have a radio show.
[19:55] Mekuru
    If you ask someone like her
    how she sees your acting
[19:59] Mekuru
    or what it's missing,
[20:01] Mekuru
    just like you asked us,
[20:03] Mekuru
    I'm sure she'll tell you
     how she feels in the studio.
[20:05] Mekuru
    I bet it would be really helpful.
[20:10] Otome
    I'm just guessing,
[20:11] Otome
    but for Yasumi-chan,
    I think she sees Yuhi-chan as, hmm...
[20:16] Otome
    someone she doesn't want
    to lose to, like a rival.
[20:20] Otome
    Asking your competition for advice
    must be really hard.
[20:26] Mekuru
    Is that so?
[20:28] Otome
    It really is.
[20:30] Yasumi
    No, it's not like that!
[20:33] Yasumi
    I guess I just don't really like
    the idea of her giving me notes.
[20:37] Yasumi
    I don't know what you mean about
    not wanting to lose to my rival...
[20:41] Yasumi
    Mekuru-chan, do you have anyone like that?
[20:44] Yasumi
    Someone you desperately want to beat?
[20:47] Mekuru
    I guess this is one of my bad traits,
[20:50] Mekuru
    but I've never felt that way
    about anyone so far.
[20:52] Mekuru
    I just can't bring myself to think that
    I deserve a role more than anyone else.
[20:57] Mekuru
    Sakuranamiki-san,
     do you feel that way about anyone?
[21:00] Mekuru
    I'd love to hear if you do.
[21:02] Otome
    I did.
[21:04] Otome
    Around the time I debuted,
    things were really heated.
[21:06] Otome
    Even though I knew going to her
    would have helped me,
[21:09] Otome
    even though she was better than me...
[21:11] Otome
    Actually, maybe that was exactly the reason.
[21:15] Otome
    I couldn't bring myself to do it.
[21:16] Mekuru
    May I ask who she was?
[21:20] Otome
    It's a secret.
[21:21] Otome
    Having someone on your mind is important.
[21:24] Otome
    I know plenty well that being determined
    not to lose can become a strength.
[21:28] Otome
    But I understand what you're
    saying, too, Mekuru-chan.
[21:32] Otome
    Being focused on someone else means
     you're paying close attention to each other.
[21:37] Otome
    They might understand you better than anyone.
[21:39] Otome
    Even though I couldn't bring myself
    to do it, Yasumi-chan,
[21:43] Otome
    maybe you should think about it when
    you really feel like there's no way out.
[21:48] Yasumi
    Good work, everyone.
[21:50] Sugishita
    Ah, Utatane-san.
[21:52] Yasumi
    Yes?
[21:53] Sugishita
    This will be a very important 
    episode for Phantom.
[21:57] Sugishita
    I have faith that you'll put
    all your soul into your acting.

    Good work!
[00:05] Fujimoto
    Utatane-san, the next session
     is your last, right?
[00:09] Fujimoto
    This won't be the same without you.
[00:10] Hoshizora
    You'll have to give it
    your best next episode.
[00:14] Hoshizora
    Well, see you then.

    challenges Sakuraba to single combat

    up till now hasn't been enough.
[00:44] Yumiko
    M-Mori-san, is something the matter?
[00:48] Mori
    Utatane-san, have you ever played
    a main character before?
[00:53] Yumiko
    Huh?
[00:54] Yumiko
    No, I haven't.
[00:56] Mori
    Then have you ever had an episode where
    your character was the main focus?
[01:02] Yumiko
    Oh, like one of those feature episodes?
[01:05] Yumiko
    Um... Only once, in my debut show.
[01:10] Mori
    I see.
[01:11] Mori
    Shirayuri is going to be the focal
    point of the next episode, right?
[01:15] Yumiko
    Right.

    I think you already know,
[01:18] Mori
    but for this, Shirayuri is the main character.
[01:21] Mori
    You are the main character.
[01:24] Mori
    The focus isn't on Sakuraba, but Shirayuri.
[01:28] Mori
    Not Yugure Yuhi, not me, not Ono.
[01:32] Mori
    It's all you.
[01:34] Mori
    Some people have been
    in this industry for decades.
[01:36] Mori
    Some are blessed with immense talent.
[01:39] Mori
    But next episode, you're the star.
[01:41] Mori
    Do you understand what that means?
[01:44] Yumiko
    Huh?
[01:45] Mori
    In the next episode,
[01:46] Mori
    your acting will have a drastic impact
     on the show's quality.
[01:51] Mori
    If your craft isn't good enough,
[01:53] Mori
    then the entire show will suffer for it.
[01:55] Mori
    Being the main character means
    shouldering that responsibility.
[02:00] Mori
    You must remember that.
[02:03] Mori
    I'm really looking forward
    to your performance next week.

[03:48] Sugishita
    She sure put the pressure on you.
[03:50] Sugishita
    Are you all right?
[03:51] Yumiko
    Y-Yes.
[03:53] Yumiko
    I was a little caught off guard, though.
[03:55] Sugishita
    Listen, what she said is true.
[04:00] Sugishita
    I already mentioned this,
[04:02] Sugishita
    but the next episode truly is important.
[04:04] Sugishita
    Your performance won't just

[04:34] Chika
    I'm on the baseball team,

    "So here's my question for you two.
[04:57] Chika
    When you're having trouble with a job,

[05:03] Chika
    Yasu?
[05:04] Yumiko
    Oh, sorry!
[05:07] Yumiko
    I was thinking about all that.
[05:09] Yumiko
    Messing things up for the people
    around you feels terrible, right?
[05:13] Yumiko
    I know how excruciating that can be.
[05:13] Sign

[05:19] Yumiko
    I'm not satisfied with it myself.
[05:22] Yumiko
    I'm putting in the work, of course.
[05:25] Yumiko
    Which is why I just don't
    know what more I can do.
[05:29] Yumiko
    I struggle and struggle
[05:31] Yumiko
    but can't seem to break through.
[05:34] Yumiko
    For the longest time now,
[05:35] Yumiko
    I've been trying to figure out what to do.
[05:40] Yumiko
    Oh, sorry.
[05:41] Yumiko
    I've been talking forever now.
[05:43] Yumiko
    Let's see. Where were we?
[05:45] Yumiko
    How do you overcome that...? Sorry.

[06:06] Sugishita
    Utatane-san, please put more emotion into it.
[06:10] Sugishita
    The tone of your voice is fine,
[06:13] Sugishita
    but I want you to layer
     more feeling on top of it.
[06:16] Yumiko
    Yes, sir.
[06:19] Yumiko(m)

[06:52] Sugishita
    I'm sorry, Utatane-san.
    Please stand by for now.
[07:05] Yumiko(m)
    When did this start?
[07:07] Yumiko(m)
    I refused to see it.
[07:09] Yumiko(m)
    I intentionally averted my eyes.
[07:13] Yumiko(m)
    I pushed as hard as I could.
[07:14] Yumiko(m)
    I did everything I could.
[07:16] Yumiko(m)
    I gave it my all.
[07:18] Yumiko(m)
    But in a world where results
    are all that matter,
[07:22] Yumiko(m)
    they'll just say, "So what?"
[07:26] Sugishita
    I'm sorry.
[07:28] Sugishita
    We'd like to have Utatane-san by herself next.

    Hitting the level the directors wanted...

    Breaking through that wall...
[07:36] Yumiko(m)
    Those were supposed to be my goals.
[07:40] Yumiko(m)

    I started fooling myself, thinking,
[07:43] Yumiko(m)
    "I'm sure it'll all turn out fine
    if I just do my best."
[07:51] Sugishita
    Excuse me.
[07:52] Sugishita
    A few words.
[07:54] Sugishita
    First of all, Utatane-san,
    we'd like you to stay longer.
[07:58] Yumiko
    Yes, sir.
[07:59] Sugishita
    And then,
[08:00] Sugishita
    we'd like you all to stay
    longer if at all possible.
[08:04] Kamishiro
    We may not really have a choice
    with the way the scheduling shakes out,

[09:11] Ono
    Look, Utatane.
[09:13] Ono
    You and I, we're both pros.
[09:15] Ono
    And pros can't just say, "I couldn't do it."
[09:19] Yumiko
    Right.
[09:20] Ono
    I've been in this business
    for a pretty long time myself,

    and I've seen what happens to people
    who half-ass their work.

[09:31] Ono
    Be prepared.
[09:33] Ono
    This is an important time for you.
[09:39] Sugishita

[09:42] Chika
    I don't have any particular plans,
    so that's no issue.
[09:46] Sugishita
    I see.
[09:47] Sugishita
    I sincerely appreciate you staying behind.

[10:02] (Flashback) Chika
    everyone will forget who I am.
[10:05] (Flashback) Chika
    Nobody would want me, and I'd
    no longer be able to do voice acting.
[10:12] Yumiko(m)

    a little insecure back then.

    What the hell was I thinking
    ever considering us equals?
[10:20] Yumiko(m)
    I cause problems for everyone around me,
[10:22] Yumiko(m)
    floundering and delaying the post-recordings.
[10:25] Yumiko(m)
    Meanwhile, Watanabe stands tall
    as the main character of the show.

[10:47] Both
    Yes, sir.

[10:51] Sugishita
    so we can rerecord tomorrow.
[10:54] Chika

[10:56] Chika
    Then I'll excuse myself.
[10:59] Chika
    Thank you.
[11:05] Sugishita
    I'm sorry that we keep pushing,

    The fate of the next episode is in your hands.
[11:17] Sugishita
    Shirayuri is the main focus,
[11:19] Sugishita
    and you're the one who breathes
     life into her character.
[11:22] Sugishita
    I just can't bring myself to sign off
     on what we have now.
[11:27] Sugishita
    I hope you can understand that.

    What do I do?

    How can I fix my acting if I don't
    even know what's wrong with it?
[11:50] Yumiko(m)
    Watanabe and the others
    had some retakes, too,
[11:54] Yumiko(m)

[18:16] Yumiko(m)
    You still haven't achieved
    anything as a voice actress!
[18:22] Yumiko(m)
    Not to mention everything
    the fans have done for you...
[18:26] Yumiko(m)
    They all cheered for someone like me,
[18:30] Yumiko(m)
    and I haven't given anything back yet...
[18:34] Chika
    Let's surpass Otome-neesan.
[18:37] Chika
    For real this time.
[18:40] Chika
    I still remember what you said.
[18:45] (Flashback) Yumiko
    I want to become an amazing voice
    actress like Otome-neesan.
[18:50] (Flashback) Yumiko
    No, even more amazing than she is.
[18:55] Chika
    I'll be going now.
[19:10] (Flashback) Mekuru
    I checked the cast,
[19:12] (Flashback) Mekuru
    and you two are probably the closest, no?
[19:15] (Flashback) Otome
    Having someone on your mind is important.
[19:17] (Flashback) Otome
    I know plenty well that being determined
    not to lose can become a strength.
[19:21] (Flashback) Mekuru
    If you ask someone like her
    how she sees your acting
[19:25] (Flashback) Mekuru
    or what it's missing,
[19:27] (Flashback) Mekuru
    just like you asked us...
[19:30] Yumiko(m)
    Should I ask Watanabe for help?
[19:33] Yumiko(m)
    That can't be it.
[19:35] Yumiko(m)
    She's my rival.
[19:37] Yumiko(m)
    I don't want to lose to her!
[19:39] Yumiko(m)
    I refuse to!
[19:42] Yumiko(m)
    Even if I can't come close
    to her level right now...
[19:45] Yumiko(m)
    I have to remember that.
[19:49] Yumiko
    Watanabe.
[19:54] Yumiko
    I need your...
[19:57] Yumiko
    I need Yugure Yuhi's help.
[20:02] Yumiko
    What am I lacking?
[20:04] Yumiko
    Why can't I get it right?
[20:06] Yumiko
    I'm sure you have plenty
     of thoughts on my acting.
[20:14] Yumiko
    As a fellow voice actress
    and my colleague on this project,
[20:18] Yumiko
    I'd like to hear your opinion.
[20:21] Yumiko
    I really need your help.
[20:25] Chika
    I could never do that.
[20:30] Chika
    Were our positions reversed,
[20:33] Chika
    I would never ask what you thought,
[20:35] Chika
    even if my life depended on it...
[20:38] Chika
    I just couldn't.
[20:40] Yumiko
    I see...
[20:43] Yumiko
    I'm sorry. Just forget...
[20:46] Chika
    It's so frustrating...
[20:48] Chika
    I couldn't do that!
[20:51] Chika
    Even for the sake of my acting...
[20:54] Chika
    I could never be as earnest as you.
[20:57] Chika
    I...
[20:59] Chika
    I've never compromised
     when it came to my acting!
[21:03] Chika
    But you...
[21:05] Chika
    You can do what I know I never could!
[21:08] Yumiko
    Isn't that just because you never need help?
[21:14] Chika
    It's not about that.
[21:17] Chika
    If my back were to the wall,
[21:19] Chika
    it's a matter of if I'd seriously
    be able to go as far as you have.
[21:23] Chika
    I really hate that about you.
[21:31] Chika
    To honor your courage,
[21:33] Chika
    I'll be honest and say this just this once.
[21:36] Chika
    Since we started our radio show,
[21:38] Chika
    Utatane Yasumi has constantly been on my mind.
[21:41] Chika
    I mean, I was determined to best you.
[21:44] Chika
    I was always listening to and watching you.
[21:49] Chika
    So I'll tell you right now.
[21:50] Chika
    I know your acting better than the
    directors and the other voice actors.
[21:55] Chika
    Better than anyone else.
[22:00] Chika
    I'll help you, Utatane Yasumi.

[00:01] Chika
    Something's been bothering me
    about your acting all this time.
[00:05] Chika
    You're bad at heeding the people around you.
[00:09] Chika
    Which is why you cower when
    confronted with veterans.
[00:12] Yumiko
    I mean, I guess that's true.
[00:15] Yumiko
    But I'm always doing retakes,
    so I just make everyone else's job harder.
[00:19] Chika
    See? That's wrong.
[00:22] Yumiko
    What is?
[00:23] Chika
    If you get apologetic for every retake,
[00:26] Chika
    you'll never be able
     to unleash your real acting.
[00:31] Chika
    What do you think?
[00:32] Chika
    This is my acting!
[00:33] Chika
    Do you submit?
[00:37] Chika
    I'm basically telling you to flaunt your
     performance with that kind of attitude.
[00:42] Yumiko
    Now, hold on a second.
[00:44] Yumiko
    How could I cop that attitude with veterans?
[00:46] Chika
    That's the attitude I act with.
[00:50] Chika
    Who cares how long you've been around?
[00:52] Chika
    It has nothing to do with acting.
[00:54] Chika
    There's no point even thinking about it.
[00:56] Chika
    Yes, there's a big wall separating
    me from those people.
[01:01] Chika
    I'm well aware of that.
[01:04] Chika
    But if I'm lacking in areas, how can I
[01:07] Chika
    allow myself to lose the mental game?
[01:10] Chika
    If you're not ready to jump
    at someone's throat,
[01:12] Chika
    you'll get swallowed for sure.
[01:15] Yumiko(m)
    Damn it.
[01:18] Yumiko(m)
    This is so not what I should be thinking now.
[01:20] Yumiko(m)
    But Yugure Yuhi's so cool.

[02:57] Yumiko
    It's not like you had to come with me.
[03:01] Chika
    Here I am, going to your
    solo recording session.
[03:04] Chika
    Don't you have anything else to say?
[03:07] Yumiko
    Yeah, yeah.
[03:08] Yumiko
    Thanks a ton.
[03:11] Yumiko(m)
    But honestly, she's a lifesaver.
[03:13] Yumiko(m)
    Having someone to act with is
    always better than going it alone.
[03:19] Chika
    I have some words of wisdom for you.
[03:23] Chika
    Ono-san has been getting mad
    at you since day one, right?
[03:28] (Flashback) Ono
    You said you'd do the background chatter.
    Do you intend to do it sitting?
[03:32] (Flashback) Ono
    You want to leave the work
     to rest of us because you're tired?
[03:37] Chika
    You don't have to look so down.
[03:39] Chika
    Apparently Ono-san doesn't
    usually lecture younger actors.
[03:44] Yumiko
    Huh?
[03:44] Chika
    Do you know why?
[03:48] Yumiko
    Because they don't suck hard enough
     to warrant lecturing?
[03:53] Chika
    That's not it.
[03:55] Chika
    It's because it's a waste.
[03:57] Chika
    If you lecture someone who
    might end up quitting,
[04:01] Chika
    you've squandered your time.
[04:03] Chika
    Which means that if Ono-san
    bothers to talk to someone,
[04:07] Chika
    she thinks they have the potential
     to survive in this business.
[04:11] Yumiko(m)
    Then that means Ono-san thinks that I'm...
[04:19] Chika
    By the way, she lectured me
    during the first episode, as well.
[04:23] Yumiko
    You little...
[04:26] Chika
    I feel like you're holding
    back with your acting.
[04:30] Chika
    Whether you're trying too hard
    for the people around you
[04:33] Chika
    or trying not to fall apart,
[04:34] Chika
    your acting lacks commitment.
[04:36] Chika
    You've got the brakes on,
    and you're holding back.
[04:39] Chika
    For once, I want you to try
    putting the pedal to the metal.
[04:44] Chika
    I want to see your acting
    where the brakes are busted,
[04:48] Chika
    and how piercing that would be...
[04:53] Sugishita
    I apologize for asking you
    to come on a separate day.
[04:56] Yumiko
    Not at all.
[04:57] Yumiko
    I'm sorry for taking up your time.
[04:59] Sugishita
    Yugure-san, having you here
     is a huge help, too.
[05:02] Chika
    I'm also sorry for insisting on imposing.
[05:10] Sugishita
    Utatane-san.
[05:11] Yumiko
    Yes.
[05:13] Sugishita
    Shirayuri is an important role.
[05:15] Sugishita
    That's why we had so much trouble
    with the auditions for her.
[05:19] Sugishita
    We had many voice actresses who
    came close to a perfect score,
[05:23] Sugishita
    and yet we chose you,
[05:25] Sugishita
    a 60 out of 100 at best.
[05:28] Sugishita
    Do you know why?
[05:33] Yumiko
    Because you believed I could
    eventually give you a perfect 100?
[05:37] Sugishita
    No.
[05:39] Yumiko(m)
    That's not it?!
[05:41] Sugishita
    We believed that you, of all people,
    could give us a 120-point performance.
[05:49] Ono
    Hello.
[05:52] Mori
    Hello.
[05:54] Yumiko
    Are you two here for retakes, too?
[05:57] Ono
    That's just you, dummy.
[06:03] Ono
    But if you're recording,
    it's best if you have us too, right?
[06:06] Ono
    That's why we're here.
[06:08] Yumiko
    Ono-san...
[06:09] Ono
    Hold it. Don't get it twisted.
[06:11] Ono
    We're not here for you.
[06:12] Ono
    We're here for the project.

    to judge my own acting.
[13:28] Yumiko
    Hey, why are you ignoring me?
[13:31] Yumiko
    Onee-chan!
[13:33] Yumiko
    What did you think?
[13:35] Yumiko
    Hey, Watanabe.
[13:37] Chika
    There it is!
[13:38] Chika
    I really hate that you're like this!
[13:55] Chika
    Sato, I want you to watch Phantom
    until the very last episode.
[14:00] Yumiko
    Huh?
[14:01] Yumiko
    I was planning on doing that anyway.
[14:03] Chika
    Phantom is a two-cour show.
[14:05] Chika
    I swear...
[14:06] Chika
    by the final episode,
     I will surpass your acting!
[14:15] Chika(M)
    When the episode of Illusionary Mecha Soldier
     Phantom we'd just recorded hit the air,
[14:21] Chika(M)
    everybody would be raving
    about Shirayuri's crazy-good performance.
[14:25] Chika(M)
    But that was still off in the future.
[14:30] Chika
    Okay, our next letter is from
    pen name "High Outside Corner."
[14:33] Sign
    Yugure and Yasumi's High School Radio!
    Episode 46
[14:33] Chika
    Oh, you're the one who wrote us
     your first letter last time.
[14:37] Yumiko
    Oh, yeah, from the baseball team.
[14:39] Yumiko
    What's it say?
[14:40] Chika
    "Thank you for hearing out
    my troubles the other day.
[14:44] Chika
    Listening to both of your stories
    gave me a lot of courage.
[14:48] Chika
    Since then, I've discussed it with my
    teammates and feel a lot better about it.
[14:52] Chika
    Last week, we had a practice game,
[14:55] Chika
    and I managed to contribute."
[14:58] Yumiko
    Hey, good for you!
[15:00] Yumiko
    Congratulations.
[15:01] Yumiko
    Not that I did anything,
[15:04] Yumiko
    but I'm happy for you.
[15:05] Chika
    This is great news, isn't it?
[15:07] Chika
    "Really, thank you so much.
[15:09] Chika
    Last time, you mentioned having
     some issues with your acting,
[15:13] Chika
    so good luck with that, Utatane-san."
[15:16] Chika
    That was their letter.
[15:17] Yumiko
    Thank you, thank you.
[15:19] Yumiko
    Well, I guess...
[15:21] Yumiko
    I might have done well for myself, too.
[15:24] Yumiko
    I don't really feel it,
[15:27] Yumiko
    but that's what people said.
[15:31] Both
    A lovey-dovey super project?!
[15:33] Asaka
    That's right.
[15:34] Asaka
    It's a special broadcast next week,
[15:36] Asaka
    so I prepared a special plan for you!
[15:39] Asaka
    We're going to have you both be lovey-dovey
    and say what you like about each other!
[15:46] Yumiko
    Talk about obvious yuri bait.
[15:48] Chika
    Why must we do something so pointless?
[15:52] Asaka
    Yuhi-chan, are you really that clueless?
[15:55] Chika
    Excuse me?
[15:56] Asaka
    The past few weeks,
[15:57] Asaka
    you've been really prickly with Yasumi-chan.
[16:03] (Flashback) Chika
    Phantom! It's about Phantom!
[16:05] (Flashback) Chika
    I heard that you passed
     your audition for the show!
[16:10] Yumiko(m)
    That's true.
[16:11] Yumiko(m)
    Ever since then, she's been in a bad mood
    whenever we meet for our radio show.
[16:17] Asaka
    I know you're trying not to let it show,
[16:21] Asaka
    but our listeners notice these things.
[16:24] Asaka
    They're asking if you two
    really hate each other.
[16:28] Chika
    I'm sorry.
[16:29] Asaka
    I don't care if it's yuri bait or whatever.
[16:32] Asaka
    Anyway, please try to figure out what you
    like about each other before next time.
[16:40] Both
    Okay.
[16:45] Yasumi(m)
    It's been one week since Asaka-chan
    gave us that assignment.
[16:49] Sign
    Good things about Watanabe
[16:49] Sign
    Pretty face
[16:49] Sign
    Sings well
[16:49] Sign
    Good acting
[16:53] Yasumi(m)
    This is bad.
[16:54] Yasumi(m)
    Even when I try to praise her,
    it's too superficial.
[16:57] Wakana
    Listen, Yumiko!
[16:59] Wakana
    Today, I helped make my own lunch!
[17:02] Yumiko
    Oh, good job!
[17:04] Yumiko
    No wonder you're radiating
    domestic goddess vibes today!
[17:09] Wakana
    You can tell, huh?
[17:11] Wakana
    I worked really hard to sprinkle
    the furikake on the rice!
[17:14] Yumiko
    There go the domestic goddess vibes.
[17:16] Yumiko
    If that's what you call helping,
[17:18] Yumiko
    your mother's going to faint.
[17:25] Yumiko
    Man, I have no trouble coming up with
    things I like about you.
[17:29] Wakana
    Huh?
[17:30] Wakana
    What's this?
[17:31] Wakana
    You're not falling for me
    or something, are you?
[17:34] Yumiko
    What if I am?
[17:40] Chika
    Sato.
[17:44] Chika
    Want to go to the radio station together?
[17:48] Yumiko
    Uh... sure.
[17:58] Yumiko
    Walking by here always reminds me
    of that bet your mom put us up to.
[18:05] Chika
    Yeah.
[18:07] Yumiko
    Remember how she said that
    counted as someone talking to us,
[18:13] Yumiko
    so she thinks she won the bet?
[18:15] Yumiko
    She really said that!
[18:17] Chika
    I can't believe my own mother
    pulled something so classless.
[18:21] Yumiko
    And then you lost it
     and started full-on yelling at her.
[18:27] Chika
    Can you blame me?
[18:29] Yumiko
    Do you think you'll be able to say something
    nice about me on this week's recording?
[18:33] Chika
    I haven't had an assignment this 
    challenging since the Phantom audition.
[18:37] Yumiko
    Come on, now.
[18:40] Chika
    There is one thing.
[18:42] Yumiko
    Just one?
[18:43] Yumiko
    Well, what is it?
[18:47] Chika
    You've got big b—
[18:48] Yumiko
    Forget it!
[18:56] Chika
    We still have some time
    before the recording, right?
[18:59] Yumiko
    About an hour, I guess.
[19:01] Chika
    Mind making a little detour?
[19:06] Yumiko
    This is...
[19:14] Chika
    I still don't like you.
[19:17] Yumiko
    What?
[19:18] Chika
    There will probably be times when I'm
    jealous of you and lash out at you.
[19:23] Yumiko
    Wait a minute, you're jealous of me?
[19:26] Yumiko
    No, no, no! It's the other way around.
[19:28] Yumiko
    Just compare Yugure Yuhi and Utatane Yasumi.
[19:32] Yumiko
    I'm the one who's jealous here!
[19:34] Chika
    It's not about how popular
    or well-known you are.
[19:37] Chika
    I'm talking about your talent
     as a voice actress.
[19:39] Yumiko
    I mean, that's also pretty...
[19:43] Chika
    Utatane Yasumi,
[19:45] Chika
    I don't think I can ever
    become your friend,
[19:48] Chika
    but I consider you my eternal rival.
[19:52] Chika
    We'll keep competing with each
    other, and then finally...
[19:56] Yumiko
    It won't just be Otome-neesan.
[19:58] Yumiko
    We'll become amazing voice actresses who'll
    surpass Ono-san and Mori-san, too.
[20:06] Yuuhi
    This is Yu-chan's...
[20:07] Yasumi
    ...and Yacchan's...
[20:08] Both
    ...High School Radio!
[20:10] Yuhi
    Good morning! I'm Yugure Yuhi.
[20:13] Yasumi
    Good morning! Utatane Yasumi here.
[20:16] Yuhi
    Chance put us in the same class
    at the same high school,
[20:20] Yuhi
    and on this show. We'll be bringing
     all that classroom atmosphere to you!
[20:25] Yuhi
    Now, let's get straight
    into our new segment...
[20:28] Both
    The lovey-dovey super project!
[20:31] Yuhi
    For this project,
[20:32] Yuhi
    we'll be fawning over each other
    and lifting each other up.
[20:37] Yuhi
    Today, we're going to take turns saying
    what we like about each other.
[20:41] Yuhi
    Okay, let's get started!
[20:43] Yuhi
    Let's see...
[20:45] Yuhi
    You work really hard.
[20:47] Yuhi
    You're always trying hard on many levels.
[20:49] Yasumi
    Gee, thanks!
[20:51] Yasumi
    Now it's my turn.
[20:52] Yasumi
    You're a really good singer.
[20:54] Yasumi
    Your voice has this clarity to it.
    It's honestly beautiful.
[20:58] Mekuru
    Ah... So precious.
[21:01] Yuhi
    I-I'm not really that good!
[21:04] Yuhi
    But thank you.
[21:05] Yuhi
    Next, I'll say you're a great homemaker.
[21:08] Yuhi
    Your cooking is fantastic.
[21:09] Yuhi
    I just know you'll be a lovely wife!
[21:11] Yasumi
    Really? I wonder...
[21:11] Sign
    Yuhi & Yasumi's High School Radio!
[21:14] Yasumi
    Well, you've got iron discipline with work!
[21:16] Yasumi
    I really admire that. It's really cool.
[21:19] Otome
    They're such a good team.
[21:22] Yuhi
    You're nice, and everyone loves you.
[21:25] Yuhi
    People can't help liking you.
[21:28] Yasumi
    You're simply beautiful.
[21:30] Yuhi
    Your breasts are shapely,
    and they're so big that I'm jealous.
[21:33] Yasumi
    You're dependable when it really matters.
[21:37] Sign
    We've recorded enough to use!
[21:38] Yasumi
    What? We can stop now?
[21:41] Yasumi
    All right.
[21:45] Yuhi
    Your acting speaks right to the soul.
[21:50] Yasumi
    You have incredible range.
[21:51] Yasumi
    And depth with all of it, to boot.
[21:54] Yasumi
    Gosh, Yu-chan, thanks for saying
    all that nice stuff!
[21:57] Yasumi
    Actually, thank you for everything!
[21:59] Yuhi
    Right back at you, Yacchan!
[22:01] Yuhi
    Thank you for everything.
[22:04] Yasumi
    Yu-chan...
[22:05] Yuhi
    Yacchan...
[22:05] Both
    That's a wrap!
