At the 2015 Idol Festival,
[04:10] Mayu
we beat the national idol group
I-1 Club to take first place.
[04:16] Mayu
In one fell swoop, we became top idols.
[04:19] Mayu
...Is what I'd like to say, but the
reality was things weren't so easy.
[04:23] Mayu
At last year's Idol Festival, I-1 Club
lived up to their reputation and won.
[04:29] Mayu
And we...
[04:33] Minami
This is heavy.
[04:34] Minami
I'm hungry.
[04:36] Ayano
Carrying a whole costume by yourself is hard.

I think I smell.
[04:43] Airi
What do you think?
[04:45] Mayu
It's okay. We all do.
[04:47] Miyu
It's hard being a costume idol.

Huh?

We're just grateful you're

Apparently, they'll be shutting
down their Sendai theater soon.

They're closing the theater?

Yeah, she's working in Hakata.

[05:53] Tange
They're another local idol group,
but they're better known than we are.
[05:58] Tange
They're still I-1.
[06:01] Matsuda
But we beat I-1 once.

The world has only just realized
that Wake Up, Girls! exists.
[06:11] Matsuda
But, ma'am, look at this.

What is this?
[06:16] Matsuda
A fan video.
[06:18] Matsuda
These are a barometer of popularity.

Are these girls from Sendai?
[06:23] Matsuda
Yes.

So, what do we need to do to sell records?

If you know the answer, then get off
your butt and find some media work!
[06:42] Tange

in living rooms across the country!
[06:48] Ayano
You always speak your mind, President.
[06:51] Nanami
But it's true.
[06:53] Mayu
She's right. I'm sure most people
don't know our individual full names.
[06:59] Tange
Well, it wasn't easy for Date Masamune
[07:02] Tange
to go from ruling Oshu
to ruling the nation, either.
[07:05] Tange
We're just getting started.
[07:18] Otome
Hey, Hayamaru. Did you
see yesterday's WUG Show?
[07:21] Ayumi
I saw it, Mocchi. WUG is so cute.
[07:26] Otome
Acchan, what's wrong?
[07:28] Ayumi
Well, I-1 is...
[07:32] Itsuka
Their Sendai theater closed.

It's over.

Calm down, Acchan.
[07:38] Otome
Yeah. We still have WUG.
[07:41] Itsuka
But I wanted to dance for I-1.
[07:46] Otome
Oh, right. That dancing video we uploaded
the other day got a bunch more views.
[07:52] Ayumi
Stop talking about that. It's embarrassing.
[07:55] Otome
Why? Hayamaru, you're a good dancer.

But Ai-chan, your performance
today was great.
[19:56] Ayano
Airi, does that mean you felt relieved
because you had your scrunchy?
[20:00] Airi
Yeah. I think I would've
messed up without it.

Even sports players take jinxes seriously.

I believe being an idol means
being true to who you are.

It's not a bad thing to place importance
on the things you need to do that.

You shouldn't be late, though.

[02:49] Matsuda
What? It's my fault?
[02:50] Tange
By the way, your final performance
will be at the Sendai Stadium.
[02:53] All
What?
[02:55] Ayano
The Stadium? This is insane.
[02:58] Kaya
There's no way we can sell that many
tickets under current conditions.
[03:02] Tange
It's okay. Don't worry about it.
[03:04] Tange
I'm planning to get you more
solo work to increase your exposure.
[03:08] Minami
Solo?
[03:10] Nanami
It means working independently.
[03:11] Tange
Which means you won't be spending
as much time together, right?
[03:15] Tange
That's why you should live together.
[03:18] Ayano
You even considered that?
[03:20] Tange
That's right.
[03:21] Tange
I think.
[03:23] Tange
Feel free to look up to me.
SIGN Moving!
[03:30] Airi
Heave ho.
[03:36] Kaya
My back hurt.
[03:42] Manami
I'm hungry.
[03:45] Mayu
We've made three trips
in the van since this morning.
[03:48] Mayu
Matsuda-san's been working hard, too.
[03:50] Mayu
Why don't we take a break?
[03:54] Ayano
Hey, let's look around inside.
[03:56] Nanami
Yeah.
[03:57] Miyu
It's old-fashioned and cute.
[04:00] Kaya
Cute?
[04:02] Miyu
Our cute home sweet home.
[04:04] Mayu
Should we grow vegetables?
[04:06] Ayano
Let's plant tomatoes.
[04:07] Nanami
Wouldn't fruit be better?
[04:09] Minami
I don't care what we grow
as long as we can eat soon.
[04:15] Miyu
Who is it?
[04:17] Ayano
Maybe it's Matsuda-san.
He could've forgotten something.
[04:19] Ayano
Come in. It's open.
[04:23] Manager
My, my. Hello there.
[04:26] Manager
I'm the building manager.
[04:29] Ayano
What? The manager?
[04:32] Ayano
Hello. Thank you for having us.
[04:34] Mayu
Nice to meet you.
[04:36] All
Nice to meet you.
[04:37] Manager
Yes, yes. Hello.
[04:39] Manager
You're all so cute.
[04:43] Manager
These are the keys.
[04:44] Manager
There are only two, so don't lose them.
[04:47] Ayano
Thank you.
[04:49] Manager
Oh, right. This place has a freeloader.
[04:58] Nanami
Hey, look.
[04:59] Airi
That's him, right?
[05:01] Ayano
Yeah, that must be the freeloader.
[05:04] Kaya
Hey, Minyami. Don't scare him.
[05:15] Kaya
You made him angry.
[05:16] Mayu
You're Zunda? Nice to meet you.
[05:19] Miyu
But why is his name Zunda?
SIGN Zunda
[05:22] Miyu
Waffle or Macaron would be cuter food names.
[05:28] Airi
Maybe that's why.

[05:45] Nanami

[05:46] Kaya
Got it.
[05:47] Ayano
We'll combine these six-mat
rooms on the first floor
[05:50] Ayano
into a living/bedroom for everyone.
[05:53] Miyu
Okay.
[05:54] Minami
It's so spacious.
[05:56] Ayano
That's how we'll assign rooms, then.
[05:58] Ayano
We also need to set rules
since we'll be living together.
[06:03] Mayu
Right, like taking out
the garbage and cleaning.
[06:05] Airi
Why don't we take turns?
[06:08] Kaya
The agency paying for our housing
will help out a lot, though.
[06:12] Miyu
I know. It's an old place,
but it's pretty spacious.
[06:15] Miyu
It's more than big enough
for the seven of us.
[06:18] Kaya
I'm surprised everyone's
families gave them permission.
[06:21] Minami
My parents were totally fine with it.
[06:24] Ayano
Nanamin, did you have any trouble?
[06:26] Nanami
My parents suggested I wait
until I graduate from high school.
[06:30] Ayano
Oh, really?
[06:31] Nanami
But I said I wanted to.
[06:34] Minami
Why?
[06:36] Nanami
Because... I'd be...
[06:39] Kaya
Huh? Why?
[06:40] Nanami
Because I'd feel sad if I were
the only one living separately!
[06:47] Miyu
Nanamin, you're so cute!
[06:49] Nanami
Myu, stop!
[06:52] Nanami
That tickles!
[06:55] Tange
Matsuda, we're holding a meeting.
[06:57] Matsuda
Wh-Why?
[06:58] Matsuda
Really?
[07:05] Tange
Now let's go.

W-Wait! I get it, so stop pulling!
[07:10] Matsuda
What? We're meeting here?
[07:13] Tange
Sometimes you come up with
better ideas while drinking.
[07:17] Tange
Today's topic is how to
sell out the Sendai Stadium.
[07:22] Matsuda
Ma'am, you said it yourself.
[07:24] Matsuda
We'll have the members get more
exposure by doing solo TV jobs
[07:27] Matsuda
to increase their visibility.
[07:28] Tange
You idiot. Normal methods aren't
enough for those plain potato girls
[07:33] Tange
to become known throughout
the country's living rooms.
[07:35] Matsuda
That's awfully blunt of you.
[07:37] Tange
Let's go for impact. For example...
[07:41] Employee
Thanks for waiting.
[07:42] Tange
We'll promote Minami as a sea squirt lover.
[07:46] Matsuda
What? Sea squirts?
[07:47] Tange
That's right. An idol who simply
does food reports is too weak.
[07:51] Tange
That's why we have to sell her
as someone who likes sea squirts.
[07:53] Minami
I'm gonna eat sea squirts.
[07:58] Matsuda
Sea squirts?

[08:07] Minami
I know that one.
[08:09] Minami
That's the one where
they eat lots of tasty food.
[08:11] Tange
That's the one.
[08:12] Tange
They're giving us two guest
spots on the Sendai episode.
[08:16] Ayano
Two spots, huh?
[08:17] Ayano
Since it's a food report,
does that mean Minyami's one of them?
[08:19] Mayu
Nanamin, you've done
food reports before, right?
[08:22] Nanami
I don't mind doing it.
[08:24] Tange
Minami and Kaya.
[08:26] Kaya
Who? Me?
[08:27] Nanami
Why Kaya?
[08:29] Tange
It's obviously just a hunch.
[08:31] Matsuda
It's obvious, is it?
[08:34] Mayu
It might be a good idea, though.
[08:35] Ayano
She did work at Tenpari.
[08:37] Matsuda
That's the plan, so help out
Minami in whatever way you can.
[08:41] Kaya
If you're okay with me
doing it, I'll give it a shot.
[08:45] Tange
Okay, then let's start ordering.
[08:48] Matsuda
Ordering what?
SIGN Sea Squirts
[08:50] Matsuda
That's enough of that...
[08:57] Miyu
Mayushi, did you finish peeling the potatoes?
[08:59] Mayu
Huh? Not yet.
[09:02] Miyu
Yikes...
[09:04] Miyu
I'll do the potatoes.
[09:06] Miyu
Mayushi, could you set the table?
[09:09] Mayu
Got it.
[09:11] Minami
Ai-chan, I'll taste it.
[09:13] Airi
Oh, Minyami.
[09:16] Minami
It's tasty, meow.
[09:18] Ayano
Minyami, you're an eating specialist.
[09:20] Nanami
The way you eat is going to be
broadcast on national TV.
[09:23] Airi
National TV, huh?
[09:25] Airi
Are you okay, Minyami? Are you nervous?
[09:27] Minami
A little, but Kayatan will be with me,
and I'm excited about eating good food.
[09:32] Mayu
What about you, Kayatan?
[09:34] Kaya
It'll be my first time,
so I guess I'm a little nervous.
[09:38] Ayano
You'll be fine.
[09:40] Kaya
Thanks. I'll do my best.
[09:43] Mayu
Airi!

We'll be having the Wake Up, Girls!
eat this sea squirt dish.
[10:20] Minami
Okay.
[10:21] Kaya
Understood.
[10:23] Matsuda
It really is a sea squirt dish.

The president's hunches
are weirdly accurate sometimes.

We're filming in three, two, one.

Hello! It's time for the Local Presenta-show.

[10:52] MC
Let's have the local Sendai team
eat these fresh sea squirt dishes.
[10:57] Minami
Thanks for the food.
[11:01] Minami
It's tasty, meow!
[11:05] MC
What's that? A local expression?
[11:06] Kaya
It's her catch phrase.
[11:09] Kaya
It means it's supremely delicious.
[11:11] MC
Really? So, that's it?
[11:15] Minami
Huh? Uh, um...
[11:18] Minami
It's super tasty, meow?
[11:20] MC
No, I mean...
[11:22] Minami
It's super duper tasty, meow!
[11:24] Announcer
Himemaro-san and Nishi-chan, have some.
[11:27] Announcer
There's plenty more.
[11:31] Himemaro
What is this?
[11:32] Himemaro
It's as delicious as a close
encounter of the third kind.
[11:35] Himemaro
It's so full of unidentified umami,
it's turning my stomach into a black hole.
[11:42] Kaya
A-Are you all right?
[11:44] Nishi
It was so delicious, I lost consciousness.
[11:47] Nishi
Sorry, sorry.
[11:49] Nishi
It just made me so hot.
[11:52] Himemaro
You mean it gave you chills.
[11:57] MC
Impressive as always,
Nishi-chan and Himemaro-kun.
[11:59] MC
You two should learn to be as loquacious.
[12:01] Nishi
If I let some idols beat me,
my stomach would be ashamed of me.
[12:06] Nishi
An idol's career is over
if she gets fat, right?
[12:09] Nishi
Want me to eat yours for you?
[12:12] Kaya
This isn't enough to make me fat!
[12:16] Kaya
Don't underestimate how many
calories an idol burns!
[12:30] Kaya
Thank you.
[12:32] Minami
Excuse us.
[12:35] Kaya
I can't believe I did that.
[12:37] Matsuda
Well, the show was lively,
so it turned out all right.
[12:40] Matsuda
Don't worry about it too much, Kaya.
[12:42] Minami
Kayatan, you were awesome.
[12:44] Kaya
No, that was awful.
[12:50] Kaya
Anyway, the other entertainers were amazing.
[12:54] Minami
Yeah, their spirit or
whatever was incredible.
[12:58] Minami
"It's tasty, meow" wasn't enough to beat them.
[13:01] Matsuda
Well, you're just getting started.
[13:02] Matsuda
Do your best.
[13:06] Hayasaka
For me, music isn't simply
an IV I absorb through my ear.
[13:07] Matsuda
I'm back. Huh?
[13:10] Hayasaka
The philosophy born through
listening is an illusion.
[13:10] Matsuda
It's Hayasaka-san.

What should we do for a new song?

Hey, did you watch yesterday's
Local Presenta-show?
[14:13] GIRL B
Yeah, it was the Sendai episode.
[14:15] Girl A
But Sendai has more to offer
than just sea squirts.
[14:19] Girl A
Like zunda and beef tongue.
[14:20] Ayumi
More importantly, did you see
WUG's Kayatan and Minyami?
[14:24] Girl A
G-Good morning, Hayashi-san.
[14:26] GIRL B
WUG? You mean the girls
eating the sea squirt dish?

Sorry, no.

[15:59] Kaya
Thanks. Maybe I will.
[16:03] Mayu
Minyami, you can't sleep here.
[16:05] Minami
But I can't eat anymore.
[16:32] Ayano
Mayushi, what do you think?
[16:34] Mayu
Myu and Ai-chan might be a little close
in our formation before the chorus.
[16:39] Miyu
Oh, I might be tending that way.
[16:43] Airi
I'll watch out for it, too.
[16:46] Ayano
That should do it for today.
[16:48] Mayu
Yeah. It's a good time to stop.
[16:51] Minami
I'm hungry.
[16:55] Minami
Kayatan?

I'm going to practice a while longer.
[16:59] Kaya
I'm not confident in my
choreography during the chorus.

It's fine. I know you're all hungry.

You're eating after your bath?
[17:29] Minami
I got hungry.
[17:33] Minami
Kayatan, what about dinner?
[17:35] Kaya
I ate on the way.
[17:59] Mayu
Kayatan, did you go out?
[18:01] Kaya
Yeah, before Okazaki closed.
[18:05] Kaya
I bought dinner for Zunda.
[18:07] Mayu
But we still have more cat food.

R-Really? I had no idea.
[18:14] Kaya
Huh? What?

[18:27] Minami
Hooray! Thanks for the food.
[18:31] Minami
Kayatan, you're not eating?
[18:32] Kaya
Huh? Uh, no.

Why not? We're having pork cutlets.

Don't you like them?

Why not?

They're really good.

[19:01] Ayano
I want to get some magazines.
[19:03] Kaya
Oh, I'll get them for you.
[19:05] Miyu
You're going out by yourselves? No fair.
[19:09] Ayano
We're just going to Okazaki.
[19:10] Miyu
Then I'll go with you.
[19:12] Miyu
I need to get their new fried chicken.
[19:14] Ayano
At this hour? You'll get fat.
[19:17] Airi
What's going on?
[19:19] Minami
I'll go with you.
[19:28] Miyu
They have zunda fried chicken.
[19:31] Minami
The new Lucky Turn is out.
[19:33] Minami
It's beef-tongue-flavored.
[19:34] Airi
Maybe I'll get some ice cream.
[19:38] Minami
Huh? Where's Kayatan?
[19:51] Miyu
Kayatan, it's not fair
for you to run off by yourself.
[19:56] Airi
Kayatan?
[20:04] Miyu
You gained weight?
[20:06] Ayano
Three kilos?
[20:08] Ayano
So that's why you've been avoiding
eating with everyone else.
[20:13] Mayu
I knew it.
[20:14] Airi
Mayushi?
[20:15] Minami
I'm so glad!

Minyami?
[20:18] Minami
I thought Kayatan hated me!
[20:21] Kaya
What? Why?
[20:22] Minami
Because we've been working together lately.
[20:26] Minami
I thought I was annoying you.
[20:28] Kaya
No, no, no. That would never happen.
[20:31] Kaya
Sorry for making you worry.
[20:34] Ayano
You didn't need to hide it from us.
[20:36] Kaya
After what I said on that show,
it would be lame to admit I gained weight.
[20:43] Miyu
You mean "don't underestimate how
many calories an idol burns?"
[20:46] Ayano
Yeah, that was a bit much.
[20:48] Airi
But it's not good to eat so little.
You'll collapse.
[20:51] Nanami
Yeah. Dance lessons really
do burn a lot of calories.
[20:56] Kaya
Y-You're right.
[20:59] Kaya
I'm going to eat dinner today.
[21:03] Miyu
Kayatan, you're raring to go.

Okay, let's not stand on ceremony today.

better cast in opposite roles?

No. I think the difficulty
makes it worthwhile.

What about Moka-san? Is she okay?

[12:52] Shiho
I don't have a firm grasp of them anymore.
[12:55] Shiho
I know it's too late for that, though.
[12:57] Shiho
When she learns Yoko and Igarashi-kun
have feelings for each other,
[13:01] Shiho
she backs off, right?
[13:02] Shiho
And in the end, she gives
Yoko her blessing with a smile.
[13:05] Mayu
Yeah.
[13:07] Shiho
I wouldn't be able to smile.

It's naive to think someone could
sacrifice their own feelings and smile.
[13:22] Mayu
Is it a sacrifice?
[13:24] Shiho
Huh?

When Yoko learned Mitsuki was in love
with him, she hid her own feelings.
[13:30] Mayu
But I never thought of it as a sacrifice.

By the way, Shimada-san.
[15:46] Tagami P
That question you asked me...
[15:48] Mayu
When?
[15:50] Tagami P
Before we aired.
[15:52] Mayu
Oh.
[15:53] Mayu
I'm sorry about that. That was rude of me.
[15:55] Tagami P
It's fine.
[15:57] Tagami P
To be honest, it's true that we
cast you two to generate attention.
[16:02] Tagami P
But it's also true that I
sensed potential in your Yoko.
[16:07] Mayu
Potential?
[16:10] Tagami P
Yeah. For better or for worse,
both you and Iwasaki-san surprised me.
[16:16] Tagami P

[16:18] Tagami P
Now I'm glad I chose you even if
it wasn't for the best reason.

Yeah. I knew you'd play along.

Huh?
[16:47] Mayu
I can't believe it's over now.
[16:50] Mayu

I might become a Nanamin fan, too!

WUG is great, aren't they?

Good grief.

Sorry I'm late!
[13:30] Matsuda
Minami, you made it.
[13:32] Matsuda
Great.
[13:34] Tange
We took the super express to get here.
[13:36] Tange
You'd better be grateful.
[13:38] Tange
Matsuda.

Yes?

Go pay the taxi.

Who? Me?

Okay.

Now that we're all here, we actually
have some extra special news.
[14:03] All
What is it?

And we'll be telling you first.

[14:23] All
Congratulations!
[14:34] Otome
The concert was super fun.
[14:36] Ayumi
Yeah. I got some pictures, too.
[14:39] Ayumi
I'm so happy.
[14:41] Itsuka
There's a ping pong table.
[14:42] Otome
Where?
[14:44] Itsuka
Over there.
[14:48] Ayumi
Mayushi's so noble.
[14:52] Ayumi
Huh? Mocchi, Acchan?
[14:58] Ayumi
Where did you go?
[15:00] Ayumi
This inn is like a maze.
[15:02] Ayumi
I don't know where the bath is.

Huh? Green Leaves?

[15:14] Ayumi

Is someone there?
[15:25] Ayumi
Wh-What should I do?
[15:30] Mayu
Huh?
[15:31] Mayu
I thought someone was here.
[15:33] Ayumi
What? M-Mayushi?
[15:37] Mayu
Oh, no! What should I do?
[15:40] Mayu
Why did this have to happen?
[15:42] Mayu
Am I supposed to hit it or rub it?
[15:44] Mayu
Which is it?
[15:45] Miyu
Mayushi? What are you doing?
[15:50] Miyu
Is this "Traveler's Suspense:
Steamy Polar Bear Murder?!"
[15:55] Mayu
Please, Myu. Help me carry it.
[15:58] Miyu
Mayushi, we should turn ourselves in.
[16:00] Miyu
Okay? Okay?
[16:01] Miyu
We'll atone for our crimes.
[16:07] Miyu
Mayushi, you can be so clumsy sometimes.
[16:12] Miyu
But if that's what happened,
then there's nothing to worry about.
[16:16] Mayu
But I spilled something on it.
[16:19] Mayu
I need to do something.
[16:21] Ayumi
What should I do?
[16:23] Ayumi
I need to take this off and apologize.
[16:27] Mayu
Is there someone inside?
[16:30] Mayu
Yoppi?
[16:32] Miyu
Why don't you wear that to the
hot springs and wash it off?
[16:36] Ayumi
What?
[16:37] Mayu
Oh, right. Good idea.
[16:39] Mayu
Yoppi, let's do that.
[16:41] Mayu
If we don't hurry, it'll stain.
[16:42] Miyu
Yeah, come on.
[16:46] Mayu
Yoppi, let's hurry.
[16:48] Miyu
I'll get the others and head there later.
[16:53] Mayu
Hurry, hurry.
[16:56] Ayumi
What should I do?
[16:57] Mayu
Need help getting it off?
[17:03] Mayu
Okay. I'll head inside.
[17:08] Ayumi
What should I do?
[17:10] Ayumi
But if I don't wash this,
it'll mean trouble for WUG.
[17:20] Mayu
Yoppi?
[17:22] Mayu
Come on, Yoppi.
[17:25] Mayu
We need to get this cleaned off.
[17:32] Ayumi
M-Maybe I can sneak out now...
[17:36] Airi
Mayushi, there you are.
[17:37] Nanami
What happened?
[17:40] Mayu
I spilled some tomato juice on it.
[17:43] Mayu
Sorry.
[17:44] Kaya
Oh, my. That's quite the spill.
[17:47] Yoshino
If you washed it off
with water, it should be fine.
[17:50] Mayu
Yeah. Thanks, Yoppi.
[17:52] Yoshino
Huh? Me?
[17:57] Airi
The WUGners' dancing was amazing, wasn't it?
[18:01] Airi
It was perfect.
[18:03] Minami
I wish I could've seen it.
[18:06] Kaya
You'll have to wait for the second bus tour.
[18:10] Miyu
Yeah. Let's do this again.
[18:12] Miyu
It was super fun.
[18:14] Nanami
Smiles are amazingly powerful.
[18:17] Nanami
Since this trip wasn't far,
I actually feel energized.
[18:21] Yoshino
Isn't it amazing when you consider
the things we do make people
[18:26] Yoshino
who have nothing to do with us smile?
[18:28] Airi
Oh, right.
[18:30] Airi
When you think of it that way,
idols really are amazing.
[18:33] Mayu
Yeah. A lot of people thanked us,
[18:37] Mayu
but this job is so wonderful,
I feel like thanking them.
[18:47] Mayu
By the way, Yoppi, why were you
wearing that costume earlier?
[18:51] Yoshino
Huh? What are you talking about?
[18:55] Mayu
Then who was it?
[19:03] Ayumi
The power to make strangers smile.
[19:06] Ayumi
That's the power of an idol.
[19:08] Ayumi
I want to become an idol, too.
[19:12] Otome
Hayamaru, where have you been?
[19:16] Itsuka
We were worried.
[19:17] Ayumi
Sorry. Actually, I...
[19:21] Matsuda
You're still awake?
[19:24] Matsuda
We're starting early tomorrow.
[19:25] Matsuda
And Nanami, we're leaving at 6:30.
[19:28] Nanami
I know.
[19:32] Matsuda
Sheesh.
[19:33] Airi
Minyami just got here.
[19:35] Airi
Now Nanamin's leaving early.
[19:38] Kaya
We've been so busy lately.
[19:43] Yoshino
What's going to happen to us now?
[19:46] Airi
Yoppi? Where did that come from?
[19:50] Yoshino
It's good that we're getting more solo work.
[19:54] Yoshino
But where should we go now as Wake Up, Girls?
[19:59] Airi
As WUG?
[20:01] Miyu
D-Don't say such anxiety-inducing things.
[20:06] Kaya
What are you blubbering about, Myu?
[20:09] Miyu
But...
[20:12] Mayu
We're WUG whether we're alone or together.
[20:15] Airi
Mayushi?
[20:20] Mayu
Maybe we need to learn to proudly
[20:24] Mayu
call ourselves WUG, even if one
of us is missing like today.
[20:29] Mayu
Even if it's just one.
[20:33] Yoshino
So each of us should carry the banner of WUG?
[20:37] Mayu
Something like that.
[20:39] Kaya
Yeah, you're right. That's it.
[20:43] Yoshino
Then we have to become stronger.
[20:46] Yoshino
Okay.
[20:47] Kaya
From now on...
[20:49] All
Work hard!
[21:06] All
Good morning, everyone!
[21:09] All
Good morning!
[21:20] Mayu
Thank you.

Thanks for being an extra in the drama.

Y-You remembered.

Um, I...

I want to be an idol!

Huh?

Huh?

Really?

Good luck to both of us, then.

Th-Thank you.
[21:51] Ayumi
I will become an idol.
[22:04] Shiraki
All of you will be reborn.

As members of Sendai's first
idol group, Wake Up, Girls!,
[00:09] Mayu
we've been taking on solo jobs in order
to increase our national popularity.
[00:15] Mayu
I appeared in a drama;
[00:18] Mayu
Yoppi was a magazine model;
[00:20] Mayu
Minyami and Kayatan did gourmet reports;
[00:24] Mayu
Nanamin and Myu were on a variety show;
[00:27] Mayu
and Ai-chan was a caster on a news show.
[00:30] Mayu
They were first experiences for all of us.
[00:33] Mayu
We had our struggles,
but we're growing little by little.
[00:40] Mayu
And at our first fan club event,
we got to see our fans smile up close.
[00:49] Ota
Looks like the WUG fan club
bus tour was a success.
[00:54] Asazu
Th-That's great.
SIGN Bus Tour Memories
[00:56] Ota
As true WUGners, we must watch
over them from a distance.

[03:27] Nanami
Yeah. How many songs do you think

[03:31] Minami
After all, it is a full album.
[03:33] Yoshino
Yeah. You need to build your strength.

At least you have the energy to speak.

Yeah. It's a little way off,

Yeah. We have to make it a success.

Of course I am.

Huh?

Does this mean I'm being demoted?
[06:43] Shiraki
Yes, it does.
[06:46] Moka
I refuse to accept this!

Is this because of my injury?

It's about I-1's new song.
[07:52] Hayasaka
I've decided to pass on it this time.
[07:55] Shiraki
Why?

Then, let's go.
[09:02] Both
Okay.

What are we going to do?
[09:07] Matsuda
I can't believe we're performing
on the same day as I-1.

It's hard enough to sell tickets.

Why did you have to choose
Christmas, you idiot?
[09:16] Matsuda
You're the one who made the decision.
[09:18] Tange
Really?
[09:20] Matsuda
In any case, we'll have to bring
in fans from outside of Sendai

to fill the Sendai Stadium.

Take one.
[12:47] Otome
This is no time to stand
here being impressed.
[12:48] Itsuka
Take one.
[12:49] Otome
Let's join her.
[12:50] Itsuka
Take one.
[12:50] Ayumi
Yeah.
[12:51] Otome
P-Please.
[12:54] Ayumi
P-Please.
[12:59] Ayumi
I bet my face is red.
[13:02] Ayumi
Plea—
[13:04] Man
What do you want?
[13:06] Ayumi
I-I'm sorry.
[13:12] Otome
Nobody accepts fliers.
[13:17] Itsuka
Being ignored so much is pretty tough.
[13:20] Ayumi
Th-That was scary.
[13:26] Tange
Matsuda!
[13:29] Tange
What do you think you're
doing while I'm gone?
[13:34] Matsuda
Y-Yeah, but...
[13:35] Tange
How could you let some middle
schoolers hand out fliers?
[13:40] Matsuda
They were surprisingly quick.
[13:44] Matsuda
They stole the fliers before
I had a chance to react.
[13:47] Tange
You're just too slow.
[13:57] Tange
You seem pretty depressed.
[14:01] Tange
Smile.
[14:02] Ayumi
Huh?
[14:03] Tange
Come on! Hurry up.
[14:10] Tange
Being an idol's about smiling
when the going gets tough.
[14:15] Tange
You girls couldn't cut it.
[14:29] Mayu
Ma'am, who were they?
[14:32] Tange
Wannabe idols.
[14:34] Tange
Ignore them. They won't be coming back.
[14:37] Mayu
I see.
[14:46] Ayumi
Smile when the going gets tough, huh?
[14:51] Ayumi
Is that what Mayushi does?
[15:00] Ayumi
Oh! Come to think of it...
[15:02] Yoshino
Isn't it amazing when you consider
[15:05] Yoshino
the things we do make people
who have nothing to do with us smile?
[15:10] Mayu
A lot of people thanked us, but this job
is so wonderful, I feel like thanking them.
[15:21] Ayumi
Hey, Mom. I have a question.
[15:25] Mom
What now?
[15:27] Ayumi
What do you think of my smile?
[15:31] Mom
What do you mean?
[15:36] Mom
I guess it's nice.
[15:39] Mom
You seem carefree like you're not
thinking about anything at all,
[15:42] Mom
but looking at it makes me happy.
[15:44] Ayumi
Happy? Really?
[15:46] Mom
Well, you are my daughter.
[15:48] Mom
Seeing you smile is—
[15:51] Ayumi
Thanks!
[15:52] Ayumi
I feel confident now!
[16:00] Ayumi
Good morning.
[16:01] Otome
Huh?
[16:01] Itsuka
You scared me.
[16:03] Ayumi
I don't want to give up.
[16:11] Ayumi
Give us one more chance.
[16:13] Ayumi
Please.
[16:17] Ayumi
When the going gets tough, you have to smile.
[16:21] Ayumi
I'm sure Mayushi and the rest of WUG
are doing their best to do that.
[16:25] Otome
Yeah, you're right.
[16:28] Otome
Okay, let's go.
[16:29] Itsuka
Yeah.
[16:30] Otome
Please.
[16:32] Ayumi
P-Please.
[16:35] Otome
Hayamaru, your face is stiff.
[16:37] Ayumi
Huh?
[16:43] Itsuka
Please.
[16:45] Otome
Acchan, can't you smile with your eyes more?
[16:56] Otome
M-My face is starting to get tired.
[16:59] Ayumi
It's hard to keep smiling when
there's nothing funny happening.
[17:03] Itsuka
My cheeks are sore.
[17:05] Ayumi
Idols really are amazing.
[17:11] Otome
How cute.
[17:14] Otome
Hey.
[17:20] Ayumi
Are you okay?
[17:25] Otome
Hayamaru, why did you have to trip, too?
[17:28] Ayumi
Mocchi, it hurts.
[17:32] Ayumi
Wh-Why are you laughing?
[17:34] Ayumi
What? What?
[17:35] Ayumi
You, too, Acchan?
[17:35] Otome
Look.
[17:36] Ayumi
Huh? What is this?
[17:38] Ayumi
No way!
[17:40] Ayumi
He smiled.
[17:41] Otome
You're right.
[17:44] Mom
Oh?
[17:45] Otome
All done.
[17:49] Mom
I'm so sorry. Was he bothering you?
[17:52] Child
Mommy.
[17:53] Ayumi
You're his mother? Great.
[17:56] Mom
You were handing out fliers here
the other day, weren't you?
[17:59] Mom
Are you idols?
[18:01] Ayumi
No, we're just helpers.
[18:04] Itsuka
We're idols-in-training.
[18:06] Otome
These are fliers for a WUG concert,
the group we hope to follow.
[18:11] Ayumi
Um, you're welcome to take one.
[18:13] Mom
Why, thank you.
[18:16] Ayumi
N-No, thank you.
[18:20] Mom friend A
What's going on?
[18:21] Mom
These girls are idols-in-training.
[18:24] Mom friend B
Really?
[18:26] BG Girl
What's going on?
[18:27] BG Man
Look at this.
[18:28] BG Girl
Wow! Really?
[18:30] Man A
They're idols?
[18:31] Man B
They're cute.
[18:32] BG Mom friend
They were handing out fliers
the other day, right?
[18:35] BG Man
How cute.
[18:37] BG Girl
Don't you just want to support them?
[18:42] Mayu
Those girls...
[18:46] Ayumi
We still want to be idols.
[18:49] Otome
Let us audition.
[18:50] Itsuka
Please.
[18:51] Tange
Fine. Since you're so persistent,
I'll let you audition.
[18:57] Tange
But no promises.
[18:59] Ayumi
R-Really?
[19:00] Otome
Thank you.
[19:01] Itsuka
All right.
[19:03] Tange
The audition begins now.
[19:05] Tange
Start by introducing yourselves.
[19:07] Otome
Okay.
[19:08] Otome
I'm Morishima Otome, 14 years old.
[19:10] Otome
Since I was little, I've always
liked cute stuff and idols.
[19:13] Otome
Since I learned WUG—I mean,
[19:15] Otome
Wake Up, Girls! were a local
group, I've been a huge fan.
[19:19] Otome
I like all of them, but if I had
to pick, Myu-chan's my favorite.
[19:23] Tange
Morishima-san, huh? Okay, next.
[19:25] Itsuka
I'm Atsugi Itsuka, 14 years old.
[19:27] Itsuka
I'm a good dancer.
[19:29] Itsuka
I like WUG, too, but I
admire I-1 Club's dancing.
[19:33] Tange
You don't mince words, do you? I like it.
[19:35] Tange
Okay, next.
[19:36] Ayumi
O-Okay.
[19:38] Ayumi
I-I'm Hayashi Ayumi, 14 years old.
[19:41] Ayumi
Uh, Mayushi—I mean, Shimada Mayu-san
inspired me to become an idol.
[19:49] Ayumi
But, uh, my face gets red when I'm nervous.
[19:53] Ayumi
I know it's not the best.
[19:55] Tange
Hayashi-san, right? Okay.
[19:57] Tange
Let's see how you move next.
[20:06] Tange
Not bad.
[20:07] Tange
Atsugi-san, right?
[20:09] Tange
I can tell you look up to I-1 Club.
[20:12] Otome
Wow, Acchan!
[20:14] Ayumi
You got complimented by a pro.
[20:16] Itsuka
Thanks.
[20:17] Tange
But, unfortunately,
you're not friendly enough.
[20:20] Tange
The other two of you are only
so-so at singing and dancing.
[20:23] Tange
It'd be tough to take on all three of you.
[20:26] Otome
What?
[20:27] Ayumi
But...
[20:28] Itsuka
I'm out, then.
[20:30] Otome
You can't give up, Acchan.
[20:31] Ayumi
Yeah. At least take Acchan.
[20:34] Mayu
Ma'am.
[20:36] Ayumi
M-M-Mayushi?
[20:38] Tange
Oh, Mayu. You're here?
[20:40] Mayu
I saw them handing out fliers yesterday.
[20:44] Mayu
They looked like they were
having fun working hard.
[20:47] Mayu
When I performed at Azumabashi, it was
hard, but I enjoyed it more than anything.
[20:52] Mayu
Don't you think that feeling's the
most important part of being an idol?
[20:58] Tange
Well...
[21:00] Ayumi
I tripped when I was handing out fliers.
[21:05] Ayumi
It hurt, and it was embarrassing.
[21:07] Ayumi
But when I saw the people around me
laughing, it's like it didn't hurt.
[21:12] Ayumi
I forgot about the pain.
[21:15] Ayumi
I started having fun instead. So...
[21:19] Tange
Fine, fine.
[21:21] Ayumi
Huh?
[21:21] Tange
But you'll be trainees.
[21:23] Tange
It'll be on a trial basis.
[21:26] Ayumi
You mean...
[21:27] Otome
You'll hire us?
[21:30] Itsuka
All right.
[21:31] Matsuda
Ma'am, are you sure?
[21:33] Tange
It's fine if you think of it as after-
school lessons for middle schoolers.
[21:36] Tange
And we can make money off them.
[21:38] Matsuda
I knew it.
[21:42] Tange
So, starting this month,
these girls are our trainees.
[21:47] Yoshino
What? Trainees?

Ow!
[03:32] Otome
Good morning.
[03:34] Ayumi
Don't you mean hello?

In the industry, they say
"Good morning," even at night.

Yeah.

You're here, amoebas.
[03:42] Otome
A-Amoeba?

That's right.
[03:47] Tange
You're not even idols-in-training yet.

I'm not sure that makes us amoebas.

Huh?

Welcome back, Mayushi.

Let's show them our very own compilation.

Are you talking about the concert?

It's fine. What's up?
[05:41] Megumi
Well... Shiraki-san made me the captain.
[05:46] Mayu
You?
[05:48] Megumi
Yeah.
[05:49] Mayu
What did Mai say?
[05:51] Megumi
Maimai said she was fine with it.
[05:53] Megumi
She probably feels responsible
for our poor sales recently.
[05:57] Mayu
But it's not her fault.
[06:00] Megumi
Moka's being demoted from center.
[06:02] Megumi
I have no idea what Shiraki-san
is thinking anymore.
[06:06] Mayu
At the very least,
[06:08] Mayu
I don't think Shiraki-san would do
anything that isn't good for I-1.
[06:11] Megumi
But he called back the girls
from the closed theaters, and said
[06:14] Megumi
he's forming a new unit.
[06:17] Megumi
The Hakata theater might be closed, too.

[07:02] All
What?
[07:03] Minami
I've heard of Nyaon.
[07:04] Minami
There was one near my house.
[07:06] Airi
That's that big supermarket
chain with the cat logo, right?
[07:09] Kaya
Aren't they a national chain?
[07:11] Kaya
I don't believe it.
[07:12] Tange
It's local to Sendai, of course.
[07:14] Kaya
Of course.
[07:16] Matsuda
But they do online deliveries,
so our fans across the country will see it.
[07:19] Tange
That's right. There's even an event.
[07:22] Mayu
An event?
[07:23] Tange
Yeah. They want to hold a charity concert
with you, the commercial actors.
[07:28] Kaya
A charity?
[07:30] Kaya
That sounds nice.

[07:46] Airi
Even when you're crying,
you're still happy at Nyaon.

Acting in a commercial
makes me feel like a celebrity.
[08:11] Nanami

[08:13] Nanami
We're idols. We're already celebrities.
[08:16] Airi
You're right.
[08:17] Minami
The seniors are excited to see it, too.
[08:20] Yoshino
Yeah. I'm glad so many
people will get to see it.
[08:23] Miyu
What are we going to do
[08:24] Miyu

around town without being recognized?
[08:27] Miyu

You're getting ahead of yourselves.
[08:31] Nanami
Mayushi, have you been in one before?
[08:34] Mayu
Yeah, when I was in I-1.
[08:36] Mayu
It was a commercial
for a carbonated beverage.
[08:38] Mayu
There were so many retakes,
my stomach started to gurgle.
[08:42] Kaya
Oh, I bet food commercials are hard.
[08:44] Kaya
Minyami would like that, though.
[08:46] Minami
Of course I'd love it.

you can do as an individual.

It's for the future of I-1 Club.
[09:50] Shiho
The future?
[09:51] Shiraki
I've heard there have been a lot of empty
seats at the Hakata theater recently.
[09:55] Shiho
I...
[09:56] Shiraki
That's what it means
to fail to produce results.
[09:59] Shiraki
If you're not in demand,
you're not making anyone happy.
[10:03] Shiho
What's going to happen to Next Storm?
[10:06] Shiraki
That's not for you to worry about.
[10:16] Kaya
Should we head straight home?
[10:18] Yoshino
I wanted to stop by Bijou, but I'll wait.
[10:22] Airi
What's wrong, Myu?
[10:23] Miyu
I need to stop by the office.
[10:25] Miyu
I need to pick up some materials
for my next job from Matsuda-san.
[10:29] Miyu
See you later.
[10:30] Yoshino
Okay. See you later.
[10:39] Tange
How are ticket sales?
[10:41] Matsuda
Still the same.
[10:43] Tange
I see.
[10:45] Tange
It's really hurting us that our finals

[11:04] Kaya
Tickets aren't selling, huh?
[11:07] Nanami
We're not ready for the stadium yet.
[11:10] Airi
We're still nowhere near I-1.
[11:12] Minami
We'll be okay.
[11:13] Minami
Our commercial will air.
[11:16] Kaya
But it's local.
[11:18] Yoshino
I'll ask the president about it.
[11:20] Miyu
What? Seriously?
[11:22] Airi
Are you sure we should be asking her?
[11:24] Airi
Right, Mayushi?
[11:26] Mayu
Yeah. The president will tell us
herself if she thinks it's necessary.
[11:30] Yoshino
But it's about us.
[11:33] Nanami
Yeah. We have a right to know.
[11:36] Kaya
But there are some things you shouldn't know.
[11:39] Yoshino
Now that we know, it can't be helped.
[11:41] Yoshino
I'm going to ask.

Are you stupid?

If you have time to ask that, you should be
spending that time on your lessons.

But—

Just go.

If you keep complaining, I'll cut your pay.

What are you doing, you idiot?

Who? Me?
[12:06] Tange
Yes, you!
[12:07] Tange
Why are you making them worry?
[12:09] Matsuda
Huh?

All they need to think about
is making the concert a success.

Selling tickets is our job!

Y-Yes, ma'am.

I'm still worried.
[12:26] Yoshino
I've made a decision.

[12:29] Yoshino
A commercial is only 15 seconds long,
but a lot of people see them, right?
[12:33] Mayu
Yeah.
[12:34] Yoshino
Let's plan on bringing
all of them to our tour.
[12:37] Miyu
What? Yoppi, what's gotten into you?
[12:39] Mayu
She's right.
[12:40] Mayu
There should be a lot of people
just in Sendai who don't know who we are.
[12:44] Minami
Oh, right.
[12:45] Minami
If everyone in Sendai comes,
we should be able to fill the stadium.
[12:49] Nanami
Yeah, but how are we going to do that?

Show the best versions
of ourselves, so everyone

who sees the commercial will
become a fan in just 15 seconds?

It's not about can or can't.
[13:00] Kaya
It's about what we're prepared to do.
[13:02] Kaya
Why not? Let's do it.
[13:05] Nanami
Fine. After all, we are professionals.

[15:40] Yoshino
I noticed something during the concert.
[15:42] Airi
Huh? What was it?
[15:44] Yoshino
There were people staring at their smart
phones the whole time instead of at the stage.
[15:48] Airi
Huh?
[15:50] Yoshino
They probably came with someone else.
[15:52] Miyu
What? Kayatan, did you see them?

No.

[08:02] Mayu
Yeah. I'm all for it.
[08:03] Yoshino
Then we'll adjust our rehearsal times,
so everyone can attend.
[08:07] Kaya
We have to discuss the lyrics, too.
[08:10] Kaya
We need to manage our time well.
[08:12] Miyu
But couldn't we use these for our meetings?
[08:15] Yoshino
It's not that we can't,
[08:17] Yoshino
but I think it'd be better for us
to work on it together in person.
[08:20] All
Yeah.
[08:22] Yoshino
In any case, we have to make this concert
one that won't embarrass us.
[08:26] Yoshino
We all have this Saturday night off, right?
[08:29] Yoshino
Let's rehearse together then.
[08:31] All
Yeah!
[08:33] Airi
Sorry to be a downer, but I have work now.
[08:39] Yoshino
Huh?
[08:39] Mayu
I actually do, too.
[08:42] Yoshino
Okay. But we'll definitely
rehearse on Saturday.
[08:45] Both
Got it.

Good work today.
[09:51] Miyu
I'm exhausted.
[09:55] Tange
You're slovenly, aren't you?
[09:57] Tange
You're still young.
[09:58] Miyu
Ma'am, I have a suggestion.
[10:00] Miyu
How would you feel about
hiring a housekeeper?
[10:04] Tange
What? You can't be serious.
[10:06] Tange
Don't be a baby.

But at this rate, Ai-chan will collapse.

we've been relying on her for everything.

I-It's fine.
[10:20] Airi
I have a lot of work in Sendai,
so you're right that I'm home the most.
[10:25] Airi

Myu-san, can we clean
everything in this area?

Yeah. Everything that can be wiped off
is grime, so could you wipe it all away?
[11:41] Otome
Got it.

Where's Mayushi-san today?
[11:46] Airi
She has work in Tokyo.
[11:48] Airi
She'll be back around...
[11:49] Airi
When was it?
[11:52] Airi
I think it's written on the board.
[11:55] Ayumi
I'll go check.
[11:58] Ayumi
Huh?
[12:03] Otome
Hayamaru, a cat. There's a cat.
[12:05] Ayumi
What? Where?
[12:06] Ayumi
You're right.
[12:12] Ayumi
There's so much stuff.
[12:20] Mayu
I love the line "dreaming the same dream."
[12:24] Mayu
I feel like there's a lot
of meaning behind it.
[12:28] Murashita
And you, Iwasaki-san?
[12:32] Shiho
Oh, right. My character, Mitsuki,
falls in love with Igarashi-kun, and...
[12:39] Matsuda
Yes. Understood.
[12:42] Matsuda
I'll head there now.
[12:45] Mayu
Matsuda-san?
[12:46] Matsuda
Sorry. I need to stop by somewhere.
[12:49] Matsuda
Can we meet at Tokyo Station later?
[12:51] Mayu
Sure, that's fine.
[12:52] Matsuda
Sorry.
[12:58] Mayu
Shiho?
[13:01] Mayu
I heard you're in Tokyo now.
[13:04] Shiho
You know.
[13:06] Mayu
Megumi told me.
[13:09] Shiho
I see.
[13:11] Mayu
Did something happen?
[13:15] Mayu
It's okay. I won't tell anyone.
[13:19] Shiho
Shiraki-san's telling me to quit Next Storm.
[13:23] Mayu
What?
[13:25] Shiho
I know I can't stop I-1 from changing.
[13:29] Shiho
But... I don't want to lose it.
[13:33] Mayu
Shiho.
[13:35] Shiho
They're important to me.
[13:37] Shiho
We build it up from nothing.
[13:40] Shiho
We're just getting started, but...
[13:44] Mayu
I understand.
[13:47] Shiho
I know it took me long enough,
[13:50] Shiho
but I think I finally understand
how you felt when you quit I-1.
[14:04] Kaya
What did Matsuda-san say?
[14:06] Yoshino
She still hasn't shown up yet.
[14:08] Minami
I wonder what happened to Mayushi.
[14:11] Airi
I think she was supposed to be done by 6:30.
[14:14] Nanami
Really? Are you sure?
[14:17] Miyu
Well, the evidence has been erased now.
[14:20] Kaya
That's your fault.
[14:22] Airi
I'm pretty sure.
[14:24] Airi
Besides, it wasn't just her plans...

Sorry!
I missed my stop on the bullet train...
I should be getting there after 8:00.
[14:30] Airi
Mayushi.
[14:40] Mayu
Sorry I'm late.
[14:44] Yoshino
Could you tell us why?
[14:49] Mayu
Um, I was careless.
[14:52] Yoshino
Careless?
[14:53] Yoshino
Didn't we say we'd rehearse today?
[14:56] Mayu
I'm sorry.
[14:59] Yoshino
We're wasting time.
[15:01] Yoshino
Let's get started.
[15:06] Yoshino
That's enough for today.
[15:08] Kaya
Yeah.
[15:09] All
Good work.
[15:11] All
Good work.
[15:13] Airi
Mayushi, where's your scrunchy?
[15:15] Mayu
Huh?
[15:16] Mayu
What? Where is it?
[15:19] Mayu
It's not here.
[15:23] Mayu
Huh?
[15:25] Mayu
It's missing. Why?
[15:27] Airi
I didn't see it around here.
[15:29] Mayu
I'll try searching the lesson room tomorrow.
[15:32] Airi
Want me to go with you?
[15:33] Mayu
Thanks, but don't you
have work in the afternoon?
[15:37] Mayu
I'll be fine.
[15:43] Ayumi
Mayushi-san.
[15:45] Ayumi
What are you doing here?
[15:47] Mayu
Have you seen a scrunchy?
[15:49] Otome
You mean that scrunchy?
[15:51] Mayu
Yeah, the same one everyone else has.
[15:53] Itsuka
I didn't see it when we were cleaning.
[15:57] Mayu
I see.
[15:59] Ayumi
Um...
[16:05] Mayu
It was my fault.
[16:07] Mayu
I'm sorry for what I did.
[16:09] Ayumi
Mayushi-san.
[16:14] Ayumi
Why don't you let us handle it?
[16:23] Cameraman
Could you face this way
and look into the camera?
[16:27] Cameraman
Nanase-san, are you tired?
[16:29] Yoshino
Sorry.
[16:31] Cameraman
Yoshikawa-san, let's go.
[16:33] Megumi
Yes. Thank you.
[16:36] Cameraman
Nice expression.
[16:38] Cameraman
Hold that and look into the lens.
[16:40] Megumi
Thanks for today.
[16:42] Megumi
This is our first time having
a proper conversation, isn't it?
[16:45] Yoshino
Yeah.
[16:48] Megumi
Mayu calls me sometimes.
[16:52] Yoshino
I see.
[16:53] Megumi
Come to think of it, last time she was
in Tokyo, I heard she talked to Shiho.
[17:02] Yoshino
Huh?
[17:06] Airi
What? The scrunchy?
[17:08] Ayumi
Yeah. Mayushi-san said it must be here.
[17:11] Otome
We'd like to look for it.
[17:14] Itsuka
Please.
[17:16] Airi
Thanks. Please do.
[17:26] Otome
I can't find it anywhere.
[17:28] Itsuka
Maybe she dropped it somewhere else.
[17:31] Ayumi
But...
[17:35] Ayumi
Is that...?
[17:39] Ayumi
It's not it. It's a handkerchief.
[17:44] Ayumi
Maybe...
[17:50] Yoshino
You know I hate it when people
keep secrets from me, don't you?
[17:53] Mayu
Huh?
[17:55] Yoshino
Why didn't you explain why you were late?
[17:57] Yoshino
Is I-1 more important to you?
[18:00] Mayu
No. It's not like that.
[18:02] Airi
Yoppi, calm down.
[18:05] Yoshino
Where's your scrunchy?
[18:06] Mayu
Huh?
[18:07] Yoshino
You haven't been wearing it.
[18:10] Mayu
Sorry, I—
[18:12] Yoshino
This is an important time for WUG.
[18:14] Yoshino
Why?
[18:16] Mayu
Yoppi.
[18:17] Kaya
I'll go.
[18:23] Yoshino
Sorry. I'm supposed to be the leader.
[18:26] Kaya
You can't help it.
[18:28] Kaya
I didn't know how to take it either.
[18:31] Yoshino
Kaya.
[18:33] Kaya
Mayushi seems strong,
but she actually depends on us.
[18:39] Yoshino
Depends on us? Mayushi does?
[18:42] Kaya
But I think it means she trusts us.
[18:46] Kaya
And we rely on her, too.
[18:50] Kaya
We all do it.
[18:52] Yoshino
You're right.
[18:56] Ayumi
I found it. I found it!
[18:59] Kaya
What happened to your face?
[19:01] Ayumi
Well, actually...
[19:05] Yoshino
What? The cat?
[19:07] Ayumi
Yeah. He scratched me.
[19:10] Kaya
I see. So Zunda was the scrunchy thief.
[19:14] Airi
That must've been difficult.
[19:17] Mayu
Thanks for finding it, though.
[19:20] Mayu
I'm glad.
[19:22] Mayu
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
[19:25] Yoshino
Huh? Mayushi, don't cry.
[19:28] Yoshino
I'm sorry, too.
[19:33] Mayu
Shiho is me.
[19:37] Yoshino
What?
[19:38] Mayu
Before I met you, I didn't
have anyone on my side.
[19:42] Mayu
She's like me when I didn't
have anyone to ask for help
[19:45] Mayu
and couldn't protect the
people I wanted to protect.
[19:48] Airi
Mayushi.
[19:50] Yoshino
I see.
[19:52] Airi
Yoppi, Mayushi does
everything she can for WUG.
[19:58] Yoshino
Ai-chan.
[19:59] Airi
She wasn't just writing
her schedule on the board.
[20:02] Airi
She also wrote stuff about
singing parts and lyrics.
[20:07] Airi
Right?
[20:08] Mayu
It was the least I could do.
[20:10] Yoshino
What? I'd like to see that.
[20:12] Airi
Well, Ayumi-chan and her friends
erased it while they were cleaning.
[20:17] Itsuka
I'm sorry. I erased it.
[20:19] Miyu
But I'm the one who told them to do it.
[20:22] Miyu
I'm sorry.
[20:24] Airi
I've been thinking.
[20:25] Airi
From now on, why don't we write
in a shared journal instead?
[20:30] Miyu
Like an exchange diary?
[20:33] Airi
Yeah. If we write down our thoughts,
then we can go back and read them anytime.

[20:56] Nanami
Oh, you know. Thanks to her,
my work went well.
[20:59] Minami
Yeah.
[21:00] Miyu
What does that mean?
[21:03] Nanami
I tried copying Minyami on With Big Sister.
[21:06] Nanami
I smiled like she does.
[21:08] Minami
Me, too.
[21:09] Minami
Nanamin taught me how to talk to someone
from Hikarizuka, and my job went well.
[21:16] Nanami
So we got each other something.
[21:19] Both
Yeah.
[21:20] Kaya
Really? You've matured.
[21:25] Airi
Yoppi?
[21:26] Yoshino
Isn't this what WUG is about?
[21:29] Mayu
The theme of our lyrics?
[21:31] Yoshino
Yeah. Individually we're weak and lacking,
[21:35] Yoshino
but we become stronger through
influencing each other.
[21:39] Mayu
Influencing each other...
[21:41] Mayu
I like that.
[21:42] Airi
Mayushi, aren't you and
Shiho-san the same way?
[21:45] Mayu
Huh? Oh.
[21:47] Mayu
Yeah, maybe.
[21:49] Kaya
I wish we could be that way
with everyone we've met.
[21:53] Miyu
It's... it's so wonderful.
[21:56] Nanami
We haven't even finished the lyrics yet.
[21:58] Nanami
It's too soon to cry.
[22:00] Minami
In other words, we should all be friends.
[22:05] Yoshino
You're right.

[05:51] Wada
I became interested in
Wake Up, Girls! after the drama.
[05:55] Wada
I've been following your progress.
[05:57] Mayu
What? Really?
[05:59] Wada
Yes. Shimada-san introduced me to the group,
[06:01] Wada
but I wanted to learn more about all of you.
[06:03] Wada
I'm glad you could meet with us today.
[06:06] All
Thank you.
[06:08] Mayu
We hope you come see our tour.
[06:10] Wada
I will.
[06:16] Heinlein
Great job, Tasuku.
[06:18] Heinlein
You're the fourth best on the US chart.
[06:22] Hayasaka
Thanks.
[06:28] Heinlein
You've done great.
[06:30] Hayasaka
I just made something new to the people.
[06:32] Hayasaka
It doesn't really matter
if I did good or not.
[06:36] Heinlein
Tasuku, you're way too realistic.
[06:39] Heinlein
Does everyone in Japan act like you?
[06:42] Hayasaka
I don't care.
[06:44] Heinlein
Oh, there's someone I
want to introduce to you.
[06:47] Hayasaka
To me?
[06:49] Heinlein
Yes. Our honored patron.
[06:53] Daruma
This is our first time speaking
directly to each other, Hayasaka-kun.
[07:04] Airi
Wow! This looks great.
[07:06] Minami
The album's really coming together.
[07:08] Yoshino
Yeah. I'm happy about that, but...
[07:11] Nanami
Now we just have to write lyrics
for Hayasaka-san's song.
[07:14] Miyu
Ugh, the pressure...
[07:17] Matsuda
What? Wait a minute.
[07:18] Matsuda
What does that mean?
[07:20] Matsuda
But why so suddenly?
[07:22] Tange
What's going on?
[07:24] Matsuda
One moment, please.
[07:26] Matsuda
They're asking us not to appear on S Stage...
[07:31] Tange
What's the meaning of this? What?
[07:34] Tange
Don't mess with me!
[07:35] Matsuda
Ow!
[07:37] Tange
But why did they suddenly change their minds?
[07:40] Matsuda
Why do you have to be
so violent all the time?
[07:43] Tange
It's because of that.
[07:44] Matsuda
Huh?
[07:46] Matsuda
Vdol?
[07:47] Tange
Looks like they're actually
sponsoring S Stage.
[07:52] Mayu
We won't get to be on S Stage?
[07:54] Matsuda
I know you were looking forward to it. Sorry.
[07:57] Kaya
That's fine, but is everything okay?
[08:00] Tange
It'll work out.
[08:06] Tange
But honestly, not getting to appear
on a key station before the release
[08:10] Tange
of our album will be tough.
[08:18] Hayasaka
It's been a while.
[08:20] Shiraki
What do you want?
[08:22] Shiraki
Make it quick.
[08:24] Shiraki
You must be busy, too.
[08:25] Hayasaka
You're no fun.
[08:28] Hayasaka
Anyway, it's no big deal.
[08:31] Hayasaka
I just had a question for you.
[08:33] Shiraki
What is it?
[08:35] Hayasaka
You don't know anything
about a daruma, do you?
[08:41] Coach
Focus! You're spacing out!
[08:44] Yoshino
Sorry.
[08:45] Coach
Make your movements bigger!
[08:48] Coach
How far away do you think
the seats in the back are?
[08:51] All
Yes, ma'am!
[08:53] Coach
It's hard to tell your positions
when all seven of you aren't here.
[08:56] Coach
Ayumi, you're Mayu. Otome, you're
Nanami. Itsuka, you're Miyu.
[09:00] Otome

Please.

Come on. Hurry up, you two.
[09:13] Both
O-Okay.
[09:14] Otome
Th-Thanks for having us.
[09:16] Airi
Thanks for helping.
[09:17] Kaya
Do you know the choreography?
[09:19] Ayumi
I think so.
[09:22] Kaya
Then let's start.
[09:30] Coach
Okay, good. How was that?
[09:32] Yoshino
Perfect.
[09:34] Yoshino
It feels way better with all seven parts.
[09:37] Airi
Thanks, Ayumi-chan,
Otome-chan, and Itsuka-chan.
[09:41] Otome
No problem.
[09:43] Ayumi
I'm just glad we were able to help.
[09:46] Itsuka
We appreciate the chance to learn.
[09:48] Otome
Anyway, I'm sorry.
[09:50] Otome
I made a ton of mistakes.
[09:52] Ayumi
I'm sorry I was too nervous
to move properly, too.
[09:56] Airi
It's okay.
[09:58] Airi
I was even worse when we debuted.
[10:01] Yoshino
Ai-chan, you've really improved.
[10:03] Yoshino
Your hard work has paid off.
[10:04] Airi
You think? I'm glad.
[10:07] Airi
I was desperate to catch up to the others.
[10:09] Kaya
When we started, we were nervous
just standing in front of strangers.
[10:14] Minami
Those street concerts were
tough training, but they were fun.
[10:19] Airi
Yeah. I feel like they made us bolder.
[10:22] Kaya
And little by little,
people learned who we were.
[10:25] Yoshino
Oh, right.
[10:28] Yoshino
If we can't appear on TV, then...
[10:33] Tange
A guerrilla concert?
[10:34] Yoshino
Yes. We can do it during our free
time with whoever's available,
[10:38] Yoshino
even if it's just one of us.
[10:39] Kaya
With the tour coming up,
it'll be hard to get all of us together.
[10:43] Nanami
We thought performing in front of
an audience as much as possible could help.
[10:49] Mayu
We could perform at parks, parking lots,
or roofs near wherever we're working.
[10:54] Matsuda
Don't be ridiculous.
[10:57] Matsuda
It made sense when you were unknown,
[10:58] Matsuda
but you've started to make
a name for yourselves.
[11:02] Yoshino
We know it'll be hard, but we want
to do anything we can to promote the tour.
[11:07] Yoshino
Will you let us do it?
[11:09] Matsuda
Ma'am, say something.
[11:12] Tange
Why not?
[11:13] Matsuda
You hear that? Why—
[11:15] Matsuda
What?
[11:17] Tange
It'll be a chance to test
your strength before the tour.
[11:20] Tange
Oh, but I can't pay for anything.
[11:22] Tange
You'll have to do it without a budget.
[11:25] All
All right!

Thank you!

Really? That's great.
[14:13] Tange
So, have you finished writing the lyrics?
[14:16] Yoshino
N-Not yet...
[14:18] Tange
Do understand that you have a deadline?
[14:21] Tange
At this rate, we might have to cut the song.

We can't do that.

[14:39] Tange
And you're confident you'll come up
with something you like if we wait?
[14:43] Yoshino
Yes. I promise we'll write good lyrics.

Yeah. Way to go, leader.
[15:13] Kaya
So, what kind of lyrics are they?
[15:15] Yoshino
Huh?
[15:16] Kaya
You told the president you nearly had it.
[15:19] Yoshino
Oh, that? That was a bluff.
[15:23] Both
What?
[15:24] Yoshino
I thought the president wouldn't listen
unless I said something like that.
[15:28] Airi
Yeah, but will we be okay?
[15:32] Yoshino
We'll be fine.
[15:33] Yoshino
Even if it comes down to wire,
[15:35] Yoshino
we just have to write good lyrics
that Hayasaka-san will approve of.
[15:38] Kaya
"Just," huh?
[15:40] Kaya
Way to go, our incompetent leader.
[15:42] Yoshino
Did you say something?
[15:43] Kaya
No, nothing.
[15:47] Airi
What did Hayasaka-san mean when
he told us to sprout new buds?
[15:52] Mayu
Maybe he simply meant
we should create something new.
[15:56] Kaya
In other words, we can't stay the way we are.
[16:00] Yoshino
You're right.
[16:01] Yoshino
Those lyrics were the current WUG.
[16:03] Yoshino
A new us, huh?
[16:05] Minami
I know.
[16:06] Minami
Maybe we could be
reincarnated as potato salad.
[16:10] Yoshino
Let's move away from potatoes.
[16:12] Yoshino
But reincarnating might be a good idea.
[16:14] Miyu
What? Does that mean we have to die first?

Oh, right. We shouldn't die.

that I feel like I've almost got it.

In particular, for those of you trying
to become the center of centers,
[02:21] Shiraki
you can't let anyone beat you.
[02:23] Shiraki
You must not lose.
[02:25] Shiraki
Work hard, so you can provide the ultimate
entertainment the day of the concert.
[02:29] All
Yes, sir!
[02:30] Shiraki
Very good.
[02:31] Shiraki
Now repeat after me.
[02:32] Shiraki
Don't rest! Don't complain!
[02:34] Shiraki
Don't think!
[02:36] All
Don't rest! Don't complain!
[02:37] All
Don't think!
[02:38] Shiraki
Gratitude, always!
[02:40] All
Gratitude, always!
[02:44] Shiho
What did you just say?
[02:45] Shiraki
The Hakata Theater is closing.
[02:47] Shiraki
Next Storm will be disbanded, as well.
[02:51] Shiraki
You'll focus on the center unit.
[02:53] Shiho
No...
[02:55] Shiraki
This conversation is over.
[02:56] Shiraki
Go back to your lesson.
[02:58] Shiho
Wait. I—
[02:59] Shiraki
I've granted you another
chance to become a center.
[03:03] Shiraki
Are you still unhappy?
[03:05] Shiraki
You should think carefully
on what's really best for I-1.
[03:12] Shiho
I have a request.
[03:16] Shiho
At least let me go back to Hakata just once.
[03:25] Rika
Shiho-san, are you okay?
[03:27] Rika
You look pale.
[03:28] Shiho
I'm fine. Thanks.
[03:33] Shiraki
Regarding the Vdol performance,
[03:36] Shiraki
are you involved in the forced
partnership with Heinlein?
[03:39] Daruma
I've contributed money, too.
[03:42] Shiraki
That's news to me.
[03:45] Daruma
Really? I didn't tell you?
[03:47] Shiraki
Is that why you didn't oppose
demoting #151 from center?
[03:52] Daruma
I'm busy. The rest is up to you.
[03:57] Shiraki
Understood.
[04:04] Aya
Disbanded?
[04:06] Hinako
No...
[04:07] Noa
No way...
[04:09] Shiho
I'll ask Shiraki-san to let the three
of you keep performing without—
[04:13] Noa
I don't want that!
[04:15] Noa
The four of us finally got back together.
[04:17] Hinako
I don't want that, either.
[04:19] Shiho
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
[04:22] Hinako
Shiho-san, are you sure
this is what you want?
[04:24] Shiho
I...
[04:27] Aya
Shiho-san, you'll become
the true center of I-1.
[04:32] Noa
You're right. If that's
what's best for Shiho-san.
[04:35] Hinako
Yeah. I'm sure Shiho-san will be fine.
[04:39] Aya
Good luck.
[04:52] Yoshino
Well? Were there any parts you didn't like?
[04:54] Kaya
Let's fix everything we can.
[04:56] Nanami
The choreography before the chorus
is a little bland, isn't it?
[04:59] Miyu
Yeah, that did bother me.
[05:02] Mayu
Ai-chan.
[05:03] Airi
What, Mayushi?
[05:04] Mayu
Can I talk to you for a second?
[05:11] Mayu
Are you okay?
[05:12] Airi
Yeah. I'm almost there.
[05:14] Yoshino
We know you can do it now.
[05:17] Kaya
Yeah. And it'll look awesome
if you can pull it off.
[05:20] Airi
Thanks.
[05:21] Airi
After all, Hayasaka-san gave us this song.
[05:24] Airi

Yeah.
[06:25] Mayu
Shiho might quit I-1.
[06:28] Yoshino
That can't be true. Why?

Apparently, it's to keep

[06:37] Mayu
Yeah.

Shiho's proud to be a member of I-1.

[07:45] Mayu
Shiho, are you quitting I-1 no matter what?
[07:49] Shiho
It's the only way I can protect Next Storm.
[07:53] Mayu
You won't regret it?
[07:55] Shiho
Well...
[07:56] Mayu
If you have doubts, why don't
you think on it a little more?
[08:02] Mayu
I wasn't even allowed to choose.
[08:06] Megumi

[08:08] Yoshino
Why don't you try talking
to Shiraki-san again?
[08:11] Megumi
That's right.
[08:11] Megumi
If you're prepared to quit,
at least talk to him again.
[08:15] Shiho
But Shiraki-san never changes his mind.
[08:19] Shiho
No matter what I say, it's too late.
[08:22] Mayu
Okay. In that case...
[08:25] Shiho
Mayu?
[08:26] Shiho
Mayu, what are you doing?
[08:36] Tange
I can afford this luxury.
[08:39] Mayu
Ma'am!
[08:41] Tange
What's wrong with you?
Can't you see I'm relaxing here?
[08:45] Mayu
But your door was open.
[08:51] Mayu
I want to talk to Shiraki-san.
[08:54] Tange
Do you have any idea
what's going on now?
[08:57] Tange
You're in the middle of your tour.
[08:58] Mayu
I know, but this is
something only I can do.
[09:04] Tange
Why?
[09:06] Mayu
It's for Shiho. No, for me.
[09:10] Tange
In other words, you're being selfish.
[09:13] Mayu
Please.
[09:15] Yoshino
Why not, ma'am?

[09:18] Tange

[09:42] Shiraki
You mean Shimada Mayu as an individual?
[09:48] Mayu
It's been a while, Shiraki-san.
[09:50] Mayu
I was told you'd meet if it was just me.
[09:53] Shiraki
Let's cut to the chase.
[09:55] Shiraki
Fifteen minutes. That's
all the time I can give you.
[09:59] Mayu
Shiho is prepared to quit I-1.
[10:03] Mayu
Are you sure you're okay with that?
[10:05] Shiraki
That's none of your business.
[10:07] Shiraki
I don't chase after people who leave.
[10:09] Shiraki
She'll just be treated as a dropout.
[10:12] Mayu
A dropout? Is that how you see me, too?
[10:15] Shiraki
Idols don't need friendship.
[10:18] Shiraki
You won't reach the top by relying on
others or being swayed by your feelings.

Are you sure?
[10:25] Mayu
At Wake Up, Girls!,
[10:28] Mayu
we're still inexperienced individually,
but we put on the best performances as seven.
[10:34] Mayu
We can do it because
we believe in each other.
[10:37] Shiraki
Believe in each other? Wrong.
[10:39] Shiraki
The best performances come from

working hard every day,
backed by a strong mentality.

we have that much more freedom.

[21:18] Otome
I'm already over capacity
from opening for WUG.
[21:22] Itsuka
And now we're performing a new song.
[21:24] Yoshino
It's okay. There's about
a month until the final concert.
[21:27] Yoshino
Let's do our best together.
[21:28] Ayumi
O-Okay.
[21:29] Otome
Thank you.
[21:31] Itsuka
Thank you.
[21:34] Mayu
Be more conscious of yourself
all the way to your fingertips.
[21:37] Miyu
Your pose will look cooler
if you make it slightly imperfect.
[21:41] Nanami
And look at this.
[21:43] Otome
Wow! We're all over the place.
[21:46] Kaya
Now, now. We were terrible at first, too.
[21:50] Itsuka
I can't get this part right.
[21:52] Mayu
How's this?
[21:53] Ayumi
Wow! Impressive.
[21:55] Mayu
You'll fall behind
if you listen for the music,
[21:58] Mayu
so one of you should give
a signal for the others to follow.
[22:02] Itsuka
I see. Thank you.
[22:09] Yoshino
The president said to choose a unit name.
[22:11] Kaya
What? Seriously?
[22:13] Kaya
Well, since we're Wake Up, Girls!...
[22:17] Mayu
What comes after waking up?
[22:20] Minami
Washing your face?
[22:21] Yoshino
We can't call them Wash Face, Girls!
[22:24] Minami
Stand up, then.
[22:26] Nanami
That's too similar to ours.
[22:28] Airi
After standing you... walk?
[22:32] Miyu
Walking Girls?
[22:34] Kaya
That's not quite right.
[22:36] Otome
We're going to run home. Excuse us.
[22:40] Yoshino
What? After that workout?
[22:42] Ayumi
We need to build our stamina.
[22:47] Kaya
Middle school students are full of energy.
[22:49] Miyu
They're so young.
[22:51] Yoshino
They're always running around.
[22:56] Miyu
That's it.
[22:57] Airi
Huh? What?
[23:01] Tange
Run Girls, Run, huh?
[23:03] Miyu
Yeah. The two runs make it cute, right?
[23:07] Tange
It's not very snappy.
[23:09] Yoshino
What?
[23:09] Kaya
Ma'am, hold your complaints
until after you've seen this.
[23:13] Kaya
Come on, girls.
[23:14] Otome
On your marks.
[23:16] Itsuka
Ready, go.
[23:17] Ayumi
We are Run Girls, Run!
[23:19] All
Thanks for having us.
[23:22] Minami
That was awesome.
[23:24] Tange
Fine, I guess.
[23:26] Tange
Okay. Starting today, you're Run Girls, Run.
[23:29] Airi
It's great that you have a name now.
[23:32] Minami
All right! We're performing together!
[23:34] Mayu
Let's do our best.
[23:35] All
Y-Yeah.
[23:44] Right
What's your favorite WUG song?
[23:47] Right
Mine is...
[23:48] All
[23:49] Right
Huh? One more time.
[23:50] All
[23:52] Right
I can't hear what you're saying.
[23:53] Middle

[01:01] Yoshino
I came up with a cheer for our concert.
[01:05] Minami
What is it?
[01:06] Yoshino
"Is everyone ready to get high?"
[01:10] Yoshino
What do you think?
[01:12] Airi
What does that mean?
[01:14] Yoshino
It's a play on burning up and turning into
"hai" (ash) and feeling elated or high.
[01:19] All
Oh, I see.
[01:21] Yoshino
Anyway, Mayushi, I'm counting on you.
[01:24] Mayu

[01:55] Kaya
No, just pretend to.

Here.

This is...

[02:05] Ayumi
Are you sure?
[02:06] Yoshino
Think of them as lucky charms.
[02:08] Yoshino
You can do it.
[02:09] Miyu
Good luck.
[02:11] Kaya
I don't think having
more of them makes it better.
[02:13] Nanami
I feel like it actually reduces their value.

It's okay. WUG is with us.

Now swallow it.

Let's try that one more time.

Ready, go!

We are...

...Run Girls, Run!
[06:56] Otome
This is our song "Run X Run!"
[08:13] Kaya
They had me on edge.
[08:15] Yoshino
It's their first performance.
[08:16] Yoshino
It can't be helped.
[08:26] Airi
Looks like they're okay.
[08:28] Mayu
Yeah.
[08:29] Miyu
It's our turn to go on.
[08:32] Nanami
Minyami, let's give everything we've got.
[08:33] Minami
Okay, Nanamin.

Thank you for these.
[08:49] Itsuka
Thank you.
[08:51] Mayu
Good work.
[08:57] Yoshino
Hello, every-WUG!
[09:00] Kaya
We are...
[09:01] All
Wake Up, Girls!
[09:03] Airi
How was the first performance
of our juniors, Run Girls, Run?
[09:07] Minami
We appreciate your continued support.
[09:12] Nanami
Now it's time for us to pump up the crowd.
[09:17] Mayu
For the next two hours...
[09:22] Mayu
Is everyone ready to get high?
[09:39] Yoshino
Until recently, we lacked the confidence
to say you can count on us.
[09:44] Yoshino
But now we can say it
with our heads held high.
[09:47] Airi
We achieved our dream of becoming idols,
but what does it mean to be an idol?
[09:52] Airi
What can we do?
[09:54] Airi
Those thoughts nearly
stopped us dead in our tracks.
[09:58] Kaya
You can't try too hard to do something well.
[10:01] Kaya
Even if it makes you look pathetic or lame,
you have to show your true self.
[10:05] Kaya
After all, that's all we can do.
[10:08] Miyu
By doing our best at what we can,
have we managed to grow a little?
[10:14] Miyu
Is each of us capable of being the star now?
[10:18] Nanami
We fought and worried, but we'll be okay.
[10:23] Nanami
The time we've spent together
hasn't been a waste.
[10:27] Minami
Now we understand each other
as much as—no, better than family.
[10:33] Minami
We know each other's
strengths and weaknesses.
[10:35] Minami
And we'll keep supporting
each other as we move forward.
[10:39] Mayu
And all the important people we've met,
all the people who have made us feel,
[10:45] Mayu
all the people we remain
connected to even when we're far away...
[10:47] Mayu
I thought it would take
way longer for us to become
[10:50] Mayu
the light illuminating someone's way.
[10:53] Mayu
But we've actually been illuminating
each other all along as we moved forward.
[15:18] Namahage Fan
Namahagez are the best!
[15:20] NS Fan
Shihocchi, welcome back!
[15:22] NS Fan
Thanks for coming back!
[15:32] Hayasaka
Wake Up, Idols!...
[15:35] Hayasaka
Honestly, I wasn't expecting
those potatoes to go this far.
[15:40] Shiraki
Why do you help them so much
when you're on the Vdol's side?
[15:45] Shiraki
Providing them with a venue seems
more than a little mischievous to me.
[15:51] Hayasaka
The only thing I act on is whether or not
I think something will be interesting.
[15:57] Hayasaka
By the way, Iwasaki Shiho
fell into that category this time.
[16:01] Shiraki
What?
[16:02] Hayasaka
She contacted me.
[16:05] Hayasaka
She asked me to provide a venue
for WUG's final performance.
[16:14] Makina X A
Don't you want to go
to a world of only Machina?
[16:17] Makina Fan
Yeah!
[16:20] Makina X B
Then I'll take you there!
[16:22] Makina X C
This is "Glossy World!"
[16:37] Yoshino
This is our last song.
[16:40] Fan
What? But we just got here!
[16:43] WUG
We know!
[16:44] Yoshino
We worked together to write
the lyrics for this song.
[16:48] Yoshino
It's about how we feel now,
the message we want to convey,
[16:52] Yoshino
and all the important feelings we have.
[16:56] Yoshino
This is "Polaris."
[17:36] Tange
It's really starting to come down.
[17:38] Matsuda
Will the stage be okay?
[17:41] Ayumi
WUG...
[17:44] Hayasaka
Shiraki-san, what do you think the
difference is between Vdols and human idols?
[17:50] Shiraki
Idols are an image.
[17:52] Shiraki
There's no difference between them.
[17:54] Hayasaka
Indeed.
[17:55] Hayasaka
But in the case of humans,
they have ups and downs.
[17:59] Hayasaka
They can't move exactly how you want them to.
[18:01] Hayasaka
But sometimes, they easily
overcome our expectations.
[18:06] Hayasaka
Don't you think that's fascinating?
[18:13] Yoshino
Minami's mic...
[19:02] Operator A
The snow is causing a system error!
[19:04] Operator B
It's happening in Tokyo, too!
[19:11] Tange
You still haven't fixed it?
[19:14] Staff
It'll take some time.
[19:16] Staff
The cold is affecting the system.
[19:18] Matsuda
Ma'am, we have to shut it down.
[19:21] Tange
Wait. Let them handle it.
[19:35] Mayu
All we can do right now is sing so our
voices reach as many people as possible.
[19:43] Hayasaka
Letting an idol with
perfect skills debut with my songs.
[19:49] Hayasaka
I thought there would be no better way
to maximize the potential of my music.
[19:55] Hayasaka
But I was wrong.
[19:56] Shiraki
Did they teach you that, too?
[19:59] Hayasaka
Are you sure you don't actually understand?
[20:02] Shiraki
What do you mean?
[20:10] MC
I-1 club's true center is...
[20:15] Hayasaka
It's not Vdols or me or you
who will change the idol industry.
[20:22] MC
Suzuki Moka!
[20:24] MC
She has impressively reclaimed her title!
[20:27] MC
Congratulations!
[20:29] MC
And now we have the perfect
surprise guest for this moment!
[20:34] MC
Take a look at the screens!
[20:37] Moka
This couldn't be worse.
[20:52] Megumi
Shihocchi...
[20:54] Moka
Shimada Mayu?
[21:01] Shiraki
Did you do this?
[21:02] Shiraki
How dare you interfere.
[21:04] Hayasaka
But it's exciting, isn't it?
[21:07] Hayasaka
This is the correct answer
for the fans as well.
[21:20] Shiraki
I-1 must stand at the pinnacle,
not just internally,
[21:24] Shiraki
but of all idols in the center position.
[21:29] Shiraki
So I'd like to announce
the return of a new idol festival.
[21:37] Shiraki
This is my answer.
SIGN This isn't a dream... My Mayushi's dancing right in front of me! This is my first concert ever, and it's super fun! There were technical issues at the WUG concert, but they handled it brilliantly by dancing in the stands! I wish everyone who couldn't come could see this! I don't know if it was a problem or a surprise... but either way, WUG is the best! I don't know what's happening, but WUG is dancing right in front of me!
[21:47] Mayu
No matter how many times we fall,
we won't give up. We won't hesitate.
[21:51] Mayu
As long as we're together,
we can keep walking towards the light.
[22:03] Mayu
I believe there are three
ways to make someone happy.
[22:09] Mayu
First, there are people who can make
lots of people around the world happy.
[22:14] Mayu
People who can make those around them happy.
[22:18] Mayu
And finally, people who
can make themselves happy.
[22:23] Mayu
But now I understand.
[22:26] Mayu
By making others happy,
we make ourselves happy.
[22:37] Staff
Tasuku, what did you think of the US? Boring?
[22:41] Hayasaka
It wasn't that bad.
[22:43] Hayasaka
But soon Japan will become
a much more fun place to be.
