Hey, sorry to ask and bother you, but when will the next translations come out from chapter 11-20 from Part 3 of the Idolish7 game? I really love your translations

Hello! I started my current job around when I stopped translating and things are currently crazy right now + probably will be for the next good while.

I still love the series a lot and although I don’t have the time or energy to devote to translating the main story right now, I do hope to finish it as more of a personal project eventually.

It makes me happy to hear that you love my translations, and I will do my best to get back on it once things calm down in my life!

10.5 - Wait for Me

Translation below the cut!

Tsukumo Ryou: Soon, it shall be complete. Midou Torao: What are you talking about? Tsukumo Ryou: Oh, fear not-- I’m referring to TRIGGER, not ŹOOĻ. Tsukumo Ryou: TRIGGER pulled out of SoundShip at the last minute. The first time is fine-- unexpected circumstances happen all the time. However, once happens a second time, they'll be seen as incompetent and impertinent. Tsukumo Ryou: There’s a shining chance for TRIGGER to repair their image-- neither Re:vale nor IDOLiSH7 will be appearing at the Tokyo International Festival of Music and Arts, a high-brow and formal affair. (1) Tsukumo Ryou: TRIGGER lose their place at that event-- I’ll make sure of it. Natsume Minami: And how will you accomplish this? I'm certain they are also aware that this is a chance for them to recover from their current predicament. Tsukumo Ryou: You see, before I became the president of an entertainment agency, I used to dabble in trading alongside some rather dangerous fellows. I can use those connections.... Tsukumo Ryou: ...To abduct TRIGGER. Inumaru Touma: ...Hey. I ain't getting involved in anything criminal. Tsukumo Ryou: Ahaha! Oh, we won't be involved at all. TRIGGER are very famous stars-- it'll be the work of a couple stalkers, so to speak. Isumi Haruka: Hmph. Isumi Haruka: ...I don't care. If that's what it'll take to see that brat and his father in tears, then go ahead. Isumi Haruka: I want him to reject everything he's ever worked for and despair. Tsukumo Ryou: Alrighty then! Who wants to call TRIGGER? Midou Torao: Do you have all of their numbers? I only have Ryuunosuke's. Tsukumo Ryou: About that. My friend Momo is a simple person, you see. He set his birthday as the passcode to his phone-- 1111. And so, I extracted all of their numbers. Inumaru Touma: Oh shit, I should change my passcode.... Natsume Minami: You better. We live in an era where entertainment agency presidents casually glean personal information from their friends' phones, after all. Midou Torao: It’s better to change them periodically. Girls love to sneak glances at my phone screen. Isumi Haruka: Won't you forget your code if you change it? ...Well, I guess this should work. Inumaru Touma: What'd you change yours to? Isumi Haruka: My year in high school, followed by my class number and seat number. Inumaru Touma: Ah. Sure is nice to be a student. Midou Torao: Seriously, though. Using your birthday as your passcode when you're a celebrity? When literally everybody knows what's written on your profile? That's stupid. Natsume Minami: You know, Inumaru-san was also using his birthday to unlock his phone until very recently. Inumaru Touma: I'ma make my password super complicated!! Tsukumo Ryou: Now, now, children. Stop playing with your phones, and listen to me. Midou Torao: Hey, Ryou-san. Got RabbitChat? I’ve got some funny stamps I could send you. Tsukumo Ryou: Oh? What are they like? Natsume Minami: We should all add each other. Do you know how to do it, Isumi-san? Isumi Haruka: ...I don't. Do it for me. Natsume Minami: So you shake your phone like this.... Here, everyone should try it. Inumaru Touma: Wait! I'm still changing my passcode so I'm not there yet!!

Izumi Iori: If they can't perform tonight, then it'll dredge up the SoundShip incident from last year and only further the bashing.... Nanase Riku: This is bullying!! Everyone just keeps hating on TRIGGER, and only them! …...What if Ten-nii got kidnapped!? Osaka Sougo: The event will be over by the time the police start moving.... Even reporting the incident is a bit of a sticky situation in and of itself.... Momo: Don't worry guys, I'll talk to President Tsukumo. I'm gonna make sure he pays me back for everything he owes me, and then some! Yuki: I'll come with you. Momo: You can't! Yuki: Why not? Momo: You know how I run really fast? And you're really slow? Well, if he starts running away and I run after him at full power, you'll be left in the dust. Yuki: I guess you're right. Momo: And because I love you so much, Yuki, I'll have to stop chasing after him and run back to you.... Yuki: Momo... Izumi Mitsuki: I don't really wanna say this to you guys since you're our senpai, but.... Now is not the time for that!! Momo: Anyhow! Yuki, you stay put and keep watch! All of you are good kids, so you better hold the fort down! Got it? Nikaidou Yamato: Let us come with you. We can leave the minors behind.... Momo: You can't! That man is utter poison! I don't want him to pollute my darling IDOLiSH7!! Osaka Sougo: Since when did we become yours, Momo-san..... Nanase Riku: Is President Tsukumo really that scary? What if something terrible has happened to TRIGGER!? Momo: He's not the type to engage in violence. Not directly, that’s for sure. He's a very smart man, but his personality is godawful. Rokuya Nagi: And why in the world are you close to a man like that? Momo: He helped me out when I was stuck in a rut, so I thought he was a good person. Back when we were poor, he gave us really tasty organic vegetables, among some other things.... Izumi Iori: So not only did something similar happen with Chiba-san, it happened with him as well? Re:vale gets baited with food much too easily and way too often…. Izumi Mitsuki: In times like this, we should all charge in! It won't be so dangerous since it'll be all of us! Izumi Iori: We can't do that, Nii-san...! Izumi Mitsuki: Hey. If it comes down to it, can any of you fight? Izumi Iori: Like I said, we can't do that!! Nanase Riku: I can fight! Izumi Mitsuki: No, you can't, Riku. Ossan, you’re up. Nanase Riku: Yes, I can! Nikaidou Yamato: Hold up! This onii-san here can't fight!! Izumi Iori: The mere idea of idols engaging in fist fights is outrageous! Nii-san, this is too dangerous-- Izumi Mitsuki: I said, if it comes down to it! We won't initiate. What about you, Tamaki? Can you fight? Yotsuba Tamaki: So. You know how I'm really tall? Usually if I glare at ‘em like this-- the other dude looks away super fast. Like whoosh. Yeah. Yotsuba Tamaki: But some dudes don't look away, and they're really good at fighting. Whenever that happens, I just go whoosh.... And look away. Izumi Mitsuki: So are ya good or not!? Nikaidou Yamato: I'd say we cast him as an extra. Osaka Sougo: Tamaki-kun is a minor, so if you must insist, I will go. Nikaidou Yamato: Oh yeah, didn't you do kendo? What was your best move? Osaka Sougo: Stabbing my opponent in the throat. (4) Nikaidou Yamato: Mm, executing that move on someone who doesn’t have any protective gear isn’t exactly ideal, but.... Sou, I'm casting you as our ace-- you’re our secret weapon. (5) Osaka Sougo: Understood. Izumi Mitsuki: Nagi? Rokuya Nagi: Fighting? No problem. However, I forgot my Magical Stick, so I won't be able to unleash my true power. Yotsuba Tamaki: I remember you protected that one tower from a terrorist attack though, Nagicchi! Way back when we went to that TRIGGER concert. Izumi Mitsuki: I’ve said this before, but that joke isn't funny so stop saying it! Yotsuba Tamaki: But it's true!! Nikaidou Yamato: What about you, Yuki-san? Can you fight? Yuki: I may look like this, but I'm actually a black belt. Nikaidou Yamato: ...You're kidding, right? Yuki: Yep. Nikaidou Yamato: ...I'll cast Yuki-san, our local indoors person, as Riku's childhood friend. Together, they'll cheer us on from this bench! Nanase Riku・Yuki: Hip hip, hooray! Izumi Iori: You cannot do this! I will not allow it! Momo: Yeah! If anything happens to you kids, I'll never be able to face Ban-san ever again!! Momo: Oh, man.... I don't think I could live if Ban-san hated me.... Izumi Mitsuki: It'll be okay! We're just gonna look for TRIGGER the normal way! Izumi Mitsuki: But in the off chance that we bump into trouble and there's no way around it, there are a couple ground rules I'd like us all to follow since we're idols! Momo: Rules? Izumi Mitsuki: Rule number one! Even if they try to pick a fight.... Yotsuba Tamaki: No hitting until they’ve thrown the first punch! Izumi Mitsuki: Rule number two! If a civilian sees you.... Nikaidou Yamato: We're filming. Izumi Mitsuki: Rule number three! What do you do with your face? Rokuya Nagi: Protect it with your life. Izumi Mitsuki: We should be okay if we follow those rules! We don't want TRIGGER to have any more trouble, right guys? Izumi Mitsuki: Also, the media might cook something weird up again if someone from Yaotome Productions goes. So, let's give it a shot! Izumi Iori: sigh ...... No roughhousing, okay? Izumi Mitsuki: Gotcha! Don't you worry, Iori! Izumi Iori: ....... I'm filled with nothing but worry.... Momo: Oh God, I hope we don't bump into any trouble.... Ban-san will murder me.... Nanase Riku: Wait for me, Ten-nii. I'll definitely save you!

10.4 - A Looming Threat

Idolish Seven - Part 3, Chapter 10.4 For more Part 3 translations, click here!

Translation below the cut!

Mister Shimooka: And that was TRIGGER's "Last Dimension!" Now, up next we have.... Momo: Shimooka-chan.... Yuki: ...Shimooka-san has a family and many trainees under his care. TRIGGER understands that too.... Momo: Back when it was Yamato, they were up against Hoshikage.... That, and it was hard for anyone to bash them since they'd be going against a world-famous actor. Momo: But this time, it's Tsukumo Productions versus Yaotome Productions, which is below Tsukumo in power. Momo: On top of that, there was that whole ordeal where Yaotome Productions "stole" a famous singer from Tsukumo, despite owing a lot to them. Momo: Putting aside what's true or not, it's easy to fall victim to Ryou's psychological ploys. You can't help but think, "There's nothing else I can do." Yuki: I know there's people out there who are strongly against his ways. There has to be. Momo: They're definitely there. I'm in contact with all of them, and-- Re:vale's TV Show Producer: Great work today, guys.... Momo: Thank you! ...What's wrong? Re:vale's TV Show Producer: I might be jumping the gun a bit, but…. I just wanted to make my rounds and say goodbye to everyone. They’re transferring me to Kyushu, so I won’t be on the show's production staff anymore. Re:vale's TV Show Producer: I really loved working on this show, and I wish I could've stayed on for just a bit longer.... Once things calm down, you should call me over for baseball again sometime, Momo-chan. Momo: ....... Yuki: I'll talk to them about it. It's not right without you on the team. Re:vale's TV Show Producer: Those words are more than enough for me. Please do your best and give everyone a great time from here on out as well. Momo: Why is this happening.... I told you to trash talk me to those people, didn’t I…? Re:vale's TV Show Producer: Ahaha, there's no way I could do that. I could never talk badly about you, Momo-chan. Re:vale's TV Show Producer: TRIGGER hasn't done anything wrong either. No other talents in this industry take their jobs as seriously as those three. They passionately, earnestly, and truly love their fans and their work. Re:vale's TV Show Producer: They did their best to make things as easy as possible for the staff the one time they guested on our show. It was a really, really great episode. Remember that? Momo: ....... *sniff* .... Re:vale's TV Show Producer: I want to make good shows. And I won't lie, even if it’ll further my cause. I…. I couldn't lie. I knew what would happen, so don't cry. Momo: ...I'll bring you back to Tokyo. I swear. Until then, I'll keep on standing here-- even if I have to eat dirt. I promise.... Yuki: If you ever run into trouble, don't hesitate to reach out to us. Re:vale will always have your back. Re:vale's TV Show Producer: Yeah.... Thank you. I'm really proud I was able to work with you two, Re:vale. ...Fight on, Momo-chan, Yuki-kun. door closes Yuki: Momo.... Are you okay? Momo: Yuki.... Yuki: Yeah.... Momo: ....... I'm this close to snapping. Yuki: You took the words right out of my mouth.

10.3 - Unbreakable Soul

Idolish Seven - Part 3, Chapter 10.3 For more Part 3 translations, click here!

Translation below the cut!

Izumi Iori: ŹOOĻ, Tsukumo Productions' newly debuted idol group.... Izumi Iori: The timing is too perfect.... The idol boom died down after the TRIGGER incident, but they've brought it right back up. Izumi Iori: It's almost as if TRIGGER is getting swapped out for ŹOOĻ.... Nikaidou Yamato: ...Natsume Minami's making his idol debut, huh? He was pretty famous back when he was a child actor, so he's definitely gonna appeal to a large audience.... Izumi Mitsuki: What's he like? You filmed that movie with him, right? Nikaidou Yamato: Uh, how do I put it.... He's like... Slimy? And kinda pisses you off.... Yeah, he's that kinda guy. Izumi Mitsuki: Slimy...? Yotsuba Tamaki: Hey Sou-chan, don't you know that dude? What's Midou Torao like? Osaka Sougo: How should I put it.... He's the type of person who radiates confidence, almost blindingly so.... Yotsuba Tamaki: Blindingly.... Radiates...? Izumi Iori: Isumi-san recently transferred into the same class as Yotsuba-san and I. He informed us that he hates IDOLiSH7. Nanase Riku: Touma-san said the same thing.... Izumi Iori: Touma-san? As in, Inumaru Touma, former member of NO_MAD? Nanase Riku: Yeah, I've bumped into him a couple times. He's a good person! But.... Nanase Riku: He said that he wasn't going to sing seriously, ever again. Izumi Mitsuki: What the hell's with that! Ugh, that kinda pisses me off. I don't want someone like that calling themselves an idol! Osaka Sougo: Even so, I quite like their song. ŹOOĻ's "Poisonous Gangster," that is. Rokuya Nagi: I like it as well, since it's such a splendid song. Yet, why would he say that he won't sing seriously anymore? Nikaidou Yamato: Oh yeah, that reminds me.... Hey, Nagi. Apparently Natsume Minami was studying abroad in Northmare up until last year. Rokuya Nagi: Oh.... In Northmare? Not very many Japanese people choose to study abroad there. He's one of the rare few. Takanashi Tsumugi: Hello! There's something I need to tell everyone. I.... It's good news. Osaka Sougo: ...You're not acting the way you usually do when there's good news. What is it, exactly? Takanashi Tsumugi: "A Lovely Night with IDOLiSH7!" just surpassed TRIGGER's show in viewership. Izumi Mitsuki: Wait, seriously!? Well.... I really wish we could've won at a better time, though. Maybe if we won during a time when we could be happy without anything holding us back.... Izumi Mitsuki: You see, I don't feel the slightest bit happy knowing that we won while our rivals are down on one knee.... Takanashi Tsumugi: That's certainly true.... Osaka Sougo: ...Is there anything that we can do? Yotsuba Tamaki: Sou-chan.... Osaka Sougo: TRIGGER has always helped us. Osaka Sougo: We owe them so much, and being unable to do anything for them when they're in trouble is truly painful.... If all we can do is listen to people tear them down, and nothing more.... Osaka Sougo: If that's all we can do.... Takanashi Tsumugi: ...If we advocate for them too much then it might end up causing them trouble as well. Takanashi Tsumugi: We should continue to treat them as the rivals that we know and respect, just as always. I'm sure our feelings will reach the viewers too. Osaka Sougo: That's true.... I understand.

Yotsuba Tamaki: ...Woah. I can't believe you told everyone that you wanted to do something for once. Osaka Sougo: Perhaps I spoke out of line.... Yotsuba Tamaki: No, that's not it! ...Is it 'cuz you're a TRIGGER fan? Osaka Sougo: ....... When my family was criticizing my uncle, I wasn't able to do anything.... Osaka Sougo: He was so kind to me, and I loved him so much.... But I wasn't able to tell them to stop saying the things they saying. I didn't have enough courage, I was a coward.... Osaka Sougo: That's why I wanted to do something this time. Yotsuba Tamaki: I'm sure TRIGGER knows. They're not gonna give up because of this kinda stuff. You're the one who's sadder about this, if anything. Osaka Sougo: You're right.... I'm getting too caught up in this. And now I've gone and nagged at you too.... Yotsuba Tamaki: ...Do you hate it when people diss me? Osaka Sougo: Of course I do. ...I absolutely hate it. It's true that you have a few negative points here and there, Tamaki-kun, but you're always trying your hardest.... Osaka Sougo: Every time a person says something about you and the smile leaves your face, I get anxious. Yotsuba Tamaki: Anxious? Osaka Sougo: ......Whenever someone speaks badly of you, I get this feeling that you'll go somewhere far, far away and never come back.... Yotsuba Tamaki: Oh.... Osaka Sougo: Ah-- Sorry for being so selfish. You don't need to force yourself to come back if you don't want to. I didn't mean to impinge upon your freedom, Tamaki-kun.... Yotsuba Tamaki: Ahaha, really? Of all the things you said, that's the part you wanna take back? Hi-yah! Osaka Sougo: Ow! Yotsuba Tamaki: It's okay. I'm here. No matter what they say, I'll always be here. Calm as ever. Osaka Sougo: Tamaki-kun.... Yotsuba Tamaki: You know, I never really got why you'd put all of those bigwigs first, especially when I was the one right by your side. It used to piss me off, but now.... Yotsuba Tamaki: The answer's simple. You just wanted everyone to praise me. Yotsuba Tamaki: You wanted people to praise me, kinda like how you wanted people to praise your uncle. Yeah? Osaka Sougo: ....... Yotsuba Tamaki: What's wrong? You're making a really weird face.... Osaka Sougo: ....... I.... I'm at a loss for words.... Yotsuba Tamaki: What kind of words? Osaka Sougo: I never realized until now.... Osaka Sougo: All I've ever wanted was for people to praise the things I like.... Osaka Sougo: That's it.... That's all there is to it.... Yotsuba Tamaki: Sou-chan.... Yotsuba Tamaki: ....... Yotsuba Tamaki: You know what, who cares? Osaka Sougo: What? Yotsuba Tamaki: You've held back enough, so who cares? The people who make fun of the stuff you like are gonna do it anyways, even if you're a super duper upstanding citizen. Osaka Sougo: Tamaki-kun.... Yotsuba Tamaki: Don't hold yourself back anymore. You can say that you like the things you like, and in a way louder voice. Yotsuba Tamaki: Haha. In a really, really loud voice. Okay? 'Cuz even I couldn't tell, and I'm right besides you. How the heck are people far, far away gonna know? Yotsuba Tamaki: Who cares if it's good or bad, or if it's right or wrong? You can like the things you like, and that's okay. Osaka Sougo: .......

Anesagi Kaoru: ...President. Bad news. Yaotome Sousuke: What is it this time? Anesagi Kaoru: Hanamaki Sumire contacted me and requested to meet with you alone.... She said that she's been reflecting upon her actions regarding this incident and had panicked in the heat of the moment. Yaotome Sousuke: Tell her to come to the agency. Anesagi Kaoru: She's been staying in a hotel somewhere in the city to protect herself from the paparazzi. Since she's scared of them, she requested for you come to her room.... Yaotome Sousuke: Does she think I'm stupid? As if I'd fall for such a blatant trap! Anesagi Kaoru: I know, but.... She said she wanted to die.... Yaotome Sousuke: Well, I feel the exact same way because I'm at my wit's end! Fine. So be it. I'll take one of the female employees with me.... Anesagi Kaoru: It's a holiday and everyone has the day off, so nobody is here right now. Shall I sneak in with you? Yaotome Sousuke: No.... Not you. Anesagi Kaoru: How come? Yaotome Sousuke: Well, it's hard to tell if you're a man or a woman. Anesagi Kaoru: My god, have you no manners!? This is sexual harassment!! My prince would never say something like that! Yaotome Sousuke: I know, I know! I'm sorry! However, I absolutely cannot go to her hotel room alone.... Convince her to come to the agency. Anesagi Kaoru: Oh, I most definitely tried to convince her. I failed to mention this earlier, but she said that if you weren't going to come alone, then she'd kill herself.... Yaotome Sousuke: Is it a bluff? Anesagi Kaoru: I don't know.... But it's true that she's very cornered in this situation. Yaotome Sousuke: ....... Yaotome Sousuke: Musubi.... Anesagi Kaoru: ....... Yaotome Sousuke: ...Ready the car. Anesagi Kaoru: ...Are you going? Yaotome Sousuke: Nothing can take the place of a person's life. Anesagi Kaoru: Oh, President.... Yaotome Sousuke: Should I change into a different suit? I have to look presentable for the photos, after all. Anesagi Kaoru: I will station personnel in the hotel lobby. I will not allow anybody to take disgraceful pictures of you. Yaotome Sousuke: Thank you.

Kujou Ten: ....... Yaotome Gaku: ....... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ....... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ...Hanamaki-san went home to her family. She sent me a message, saying 'Thank you for taking such good care of me.' Yaotome Gaku: ...Who the fuck does she think she is, sending you a message like that? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ....... I don't think she understood what was really happening.... She was so, so tired and desperately wanted to take a break from everything. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I asked her if she could revise the statements she made to the media, but she told me that she's too scared to do it right now. She did say that once everything calms down she would.... Yaotome Gaku: You're too fucking nice to people! She dragged my dad into this mess too, you know? People use you because you're like that! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I can submit her messages as evidence. But if we turn to hate right now, then we're not any better than the lot of them! Yaotome Gaku: ....... Kujou Ten: Don't yell. They can hear from outside. Kujou Ten: We'll prove our innocence ourselves-- on stage. Kujou Ten: Our fans are the most uneasy right now. They don't know whether or not they should trust us. Kujou Ten: We must look them right in the eye and answer them. *door opens* Nanase Riku: Good morning! Kujou Ten: Riku.... Izumi Mitsuki: You guys doing alright? We're also gonna be on the show today, so we dropped by to visit! Yotsuba Tamaki: Here's your gift! It's King Pudding! ...Can I have one? Osaka Sougo: Tamaki-kun, it's gift for them! You have to let them open it first-- Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Haha, go ahead. Is that okay with you two? Yaotome Gaku: Yeah. ...Thank you. Izumi Iori: Consuming foods with high sugar content will stimulate the reward centers in the brain. In other words, this is a form of stress-relief. (2) Kujou Ten: Thank you. Nanase Riku: A lot of people came for you guys. Like what one of the TRIGGER fans said to me earlier, cheer up! Nanase Riku: She also said, 'I believe in all of you!' Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ....... She said that...? Thank you.... Yaotome Gaku: Dumbass.... What are you doing? You're on the verge of tears. Osaka Sougo: I'm sorry about what happened.... I can't even begin to fathom everything you've gone through, Tsunashi-san.... Rokuya Nagi: We know all of you are true gentlemen, as do the people who have been watching you all this time. Rokuya Nagi: TRIGGER's soul has poured love into their music, their performance, and their fans-- And it shall never be wounded. Kujou Ten: You're right.... What we've been conveying to the fans all this time is still here. Kujou Ten: That's the type of work we've done. We must stand proud, with our heads held high. Kujou Ten: We can't let our past selves laugh at what we've become. That's what we must do right now, and nothing more. Yaotome Gaku: Yeah. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: That's right. Osaka Sougo: Please do your best.... If there is anything I can do, I'll do it. Nanase Riku: Me too, Ten-nii! Kujou Ten: Yeah. Thank you for coming to see me, Riku. Nanase Riku: Huh...? Kujou Ten: I feel better now. Nanase Riku: ....... Nanase Riku: Yet, for some reason, I felt like crying in that instant.

Update!

Hello everyone! Sorry for the radio silence these past few months, but life’s been pretty hectic with finals, graduation, moving, AX crunch, etc etc.

Wrt translations, I have 10.3 mostly done, with a couple or so lines in need of editing and overall QCing so I’ll def be posting that either directly after Anime Expo, or along with the rest of Chapter 10 at the end of July since I have to move again mid-month.

I do apologize for the lack of updates and progress with respect to all of my translations, but hopefully I’ll be settled in and up and running by late July/August.

As I mentioned earlier, I’ll be attending Anime Expo and I’m definitely going to the Idolish Seven gathering on Saturday (as Taiko no Tatsujin Gaku with a Ryuu itabag LOL)! Feel free to hit me up any time during the con (DM me on twitter @shiroihime) and let’s talk i7! ٩( ´･ш･)و

10.2 - It's Showtime!

Idolish Seven - Part 3, Chapter 10.2 For more Part 3 translations, click here!

Translation below the cut!

Voice from TV: Take a look at this, everyone! What in the world is this picture? Voice from TV: Why, it's a picture from an idol group's debut! It looks as lively as a Halloween event! Voice from TV: It's a classic idol group full of hotties! And they're called.... Voice from TV: ŹOOĻ! Kujou Takamasa: ....... I see. Haruka has debuted. Kujou Takamasa: A year, or even three. Ryou said that was enough for him. *phone rings* Kujou Takamasa: .....Hello. Yes, it's me. I'm fine. Are you doing well, Aya? Kujou Takamasa: Haha.... I look forward to that. Kombucha muffins, huh.... That's true. Tea is a must. Kujou Takamasa: Of course I'll eat them when I get back. Alright then. Keep up the good work.... *beep* Kujou Takamasa: ......I must find a way to reign in that girl's imagination, at least when it comes to baking.... *door opens* Kujou Ten: I have returned, Kujou-san. Kujou Takamasa: Welcome home, Ten. The Tokyo International Music and Arts Festival is right around the corner. I have great expectations for you. Kujou Ten: Thank you. Kujou Takamasa: However, I have lost faith in Yaotome Productions. Perhaps it is time.... Kujou Ten: If you don't mind, there's something I'd like to ask you. Kujou Takamasa: What is it? Kujou Ten: It's about a boy named Isumi Haruka. What part about him makes him a failure? Kujou Takamasa: Haha. You and him were made in opposite ways. Kujou Ten: Opposite...? Kujou Takamasa: But it was no good. He found everything boring and was quite the disagreeable child. Absolutely no good at all. That why I let him go the instant I noticed. Kujou Ten: How were we raised differently? Kujou Takamasa: I taught him that he should never be thankful towards the fans. That going from utter joy to dejection depending on how the fans respond is unstable, and therefore, foolish. Kujou Takamasa: After all, the fans might have been one of the reasons why Zero disappeared.... Kujou Ten: ....... Kujou Takamasa: ......Haruka is skilled. However, I ended up making him a rather boring and defective product. It was truly a disappointment. Kujou Takamasa: I couldn't bear to look at him any longer. And such, I sent him away. Kujou Ten: ......Are you saying you abandoned one of the talents you raised because he was a failure? Kujou Takamasa: I did. I promised that I'd make him my son, but I didn't think he was going to turn out that way.... Kujou Ten: Kujou-san, that's.... Kujou Takamasa: That's what? Kujou Ten: ...... That's cruel. You toyed with a person's life. Kujou Takamasa: ...Are you condemning me? Kujou Ten: I respect you, Kujou-san. However, this is the one thing I cannot respect. You should apologi-- Kujou Takamasa: I apologized! I told him that he was a failure! I told him that I had nothing more to teach him! Kujou Ten: I will live up to all of your expectations! There's no need to make more children like him or Aya! Kujou Ten: Focus all of your efforts on me. You're fine with that, correct? Kujou Takamasa: Hmm.... Kujou Takamasa: Alright then. I'm happy to hear that, Ten. I knew you were the one for me, after all. Kujou Ten: ....... May I ask you another question? Kujou Takamasa: Of course. Feel free to ask me as many questions as you'd like. Kujou Ten: Did Sakura Haruki-san pass away? Kujou Takamasa: I wonder. Kujou Takamasa: The letter I received from him contained a living will. However, I have no idea where he is or what he is doing. (1) Kujou Ten: ....... Kujou Takamasa: It is true that he doesn't have much time left. It appears that he will be giving me his songs before he dies. Kujou Ten: Sakura Haruki's.... Posthumous works...? You really don't know where he is? Kujou Takamasa: Why are you asking me this? Are you interested in Haruki? Do you want his songs? Kujou Takamasa: Of course I'll give them to you, Ten. You are the perfect idol, one that I made myself. You are the ideal star, even more so than Zero. Kujou Takamasa: You are the only one who meets all the requirements to become the ultimate idol. I once thought that about Yuki, but that boy had faltered. Kujou Ten: .....Requirements to become the ultimate idol? Kujou Takamasa: I'm certain you're already aware of them, Ten. After all, you had already met them before I met you. Kujou Takamasa: You were just like a messiah, born from a virgin. (2) Kujou Ten: .......

Izumi Mitsuki: What the hell!? I’ll never forgive those assholes at Tsukumo! Nikaidou Yamato: Hanamaki-chan did seem like she was having a hard time lately. Maybe they've been using her.... Rokuya Nagi: Using women like that is unforgivable. Very well. Allow me to aid in this matter. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: You can't! You're still considered a minor in Japan. I will not let you get tangled up in this kind of mess. (1) Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: People are going to try to discredit your testimony. There's no telling what the press is going to say or write about you! Rokuya Nagi: There is no need to explain everything to me as if I were a clueless, ignorant student. If anything, I am more knowledgeable in these matters than you are. Rokuya Nagi: I was able to clean my image up by holding that press conference. With my testimony, I'm sure that I'll be able to manipulate your image into-- Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I'm telling you, this incident isn't something a child should get involved in! Rokuya Nagi: Pardon? Yaotome Gaku: Shut up, Ryuu! It's just like you said, Rokuya. Can you promise us your testimony? Rokuya Nagi: No. I refuse. Yaotome Gaku: Why!? Rokuya Nagi: Tsunashi-shi's attitude has put me in an utterly terrible mood. Yaotome Gaku: Hey! We need him to help you, so apologize! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I don't want him to help me! Rokuya Nagi: Hahaha. The man said so himself. Izumi Mitsuki: Nagi! Don't be so cold. TRIGGER's always helping us out, so we gotta return the favor! Rokuya Nagi: Oh.... Well, if you say so, Mitsuki.... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: You can't do that, Nagi-kun! Taking on something like this so casually might end up causing trouble for IDOLiSH7! Rokuya Nagi: Do you mind explaining why you keep lecturing me when you're not in any position do so? Might I remind you, you're the one who is asking for something, not me. Yaotome Gaku: Exactly! Ryuu, if you could be just a little bit more humble.... Kujou Ten: I see we've reached an impasse. Nikaidou Yamato: You could say that again.... Who knows how long it's gonna take before they stop flying back and forth between options and reach an agreement.... Kujou Ten: They might just run out of fuel, spiral down, and crash before then. (2) Nikaidou Yamato: Better ready the parachutes then. Yaotome Gaku: Alright! How about this? In exchange for your testimony, I'll do anything you say. Anything. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Gaku! Rokuya Nagi: You will, Yaotome-shi? Yaotome Gaku: Yeah. Is there anything you want me to do? Rokuya Nagi: ....... Rokuya Nagi: Please teach me some Japanese internet slang. I've run out of them lately. Yaotome Gaku: Internet slang...? Oh, I know! Alright. Here's one I can teach ya. Yaotome Gaku: Tehepero. (3) Kujou Ten: That's a little outdated.... Rokuya Nagi: Oh, tehepero! What does it mean? Yaotome Gaku: "Oopsie daisies! Sorry, can't do anything about it. Forgive me?" Rokuya Nagi: Do you have any more? Yaotome Gaku: Kyawatan. Kujou Ten: Like I said, isn't that a little outdated? Rokuya Nagi: Oh! Kyawatan! What does it mean? Yaotome Gaku: "Cute." Rokuya Nagi: Oh, how splendid! I will definitely be using these words in the near future! Nikaidou Yamato: Listen man, I've been keeping quiet this whole time, but this is the type of stuff high school girls say.... See also, not internet slang.... Rokuya Nagi: Thank you very, very much! I'd be more than happy to help you, TRIGGER. When would you like me to testify-- Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: We don't need your help! I'd rather bite the bullet and confront Tsukumo myself than drag a minor into this! (4) Izumi Mitsuki: Oh, hell no! Going to Tsukumo is the last thing you wanna do right now, Tsunashi-san! Not with this timing! Nikaidou Yamato: Say, how about we strike down the opposition by starting from the person of interest? Where is she right now? Yaotome Gaku: Who? Nikaidou Yamato: Hanamaki-chan. If we get her to spit out the truth, then problem solved, yeah? Rokuya Nagi: Oh.... I am strongly against putting women in danger. Nikaidou Yamato: Nah, it won't be dangerous. We're just gonna have her tell the truth. Rokuya Nagi: Look at everything that's happened to Tsunashi-shi. If she turns coat, there is a very good chance that she will have to face terrible things.... Kujou Ten: I agree with Nikaidou Yamato. It doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman-- if you deceive someone, you ought to take responsibility for your actions. Yaotome Gaku: Damn. You're definitely someone who'd never forgive a partner for cheating. Izumi Mitsuki: Listen, I don't like picking on girls. But I'm all for taking on Tsukumo if all we gotta do is give her a good shake! Nikaidou Yamato: Mitsu, that's a little much! We can settle this with a peaceful discussion. It'll be okay. We won't need to shake her or anything. Izumi Mitsuki: You're scary as hell when you get pissed off, so I can't trust you on that one. Nikaidou Yamato: Well, you're the one who straight up provoked me! Izumi Mitsuki: See, look! You're mad now! Rokuya Nagi: We're all over the place. I propose we act separately, following our own convictions. Who will be directly confronting Tsukumo with me? Izumi Mitsuki: Me! Yaotome Gaku: Count me in. Nikaidou Yamato: And who's down to tackle the problem via Hanamaki-chan? Kujou Ten: I am. Izumi Mitsuki: Cool. All is well no matter which team succeeds! Who ever settles stuff first should contact the other team, okay? Izumi Mitsuki: Alright! Disperse! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Wait! I didn't want to get anyone involved.... Why is this turning into such a big deal! Nikaidou Yamato: That's easy. It's because you're a good person. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ....... Izumi Mitsuki: Yep, yep! Like hell we could sit still. Don't worry, we'll figure something out!

Thorvald: Good evening. Sorry to interrupt in the middle of a meal. I would like to offer a suggestion to everyone. Thorvald: How do you feel about setting up surveillance cameras in this room? IDOLiSH7: No! Izumi Mitsuki: You goddamn stalker! First you follow Nagi around, then you come in and drink our miso soup, and now you wanna set up cameras!? Nikaidou Yamato: You’re mighty bold for a stalker! Like hell we'd say yes to that! Thorvald: It is only reasonable for all of you to react that way. Very well. I shall be bringing Nagi-san back to Northmare with me then. IDOLiSH7: What!? Yotsuba Tamaki: He! He's tryna kidnap Nagicchi! Nanase Riku: We would never hand Nagi over to a stalker! Sougo-san, do you see anything that'd work as a weapon? Osaka Sougo: ......Here, take this! Izumi Mitsuki: You can't just throw glass pots around! That one’s expensive! *door opens* Rokuya Nagi: Thorvald.... Oh! What's the matter, everyone!? Nanase Riku: This dude's been stalking you, hasn't he! Rokuya Nagi: Well, if you were to call him a stalker you would not be wrong, but.... He is not the stalker I spoke of the other day.... Nikaidou Yamato: Y’know.... You’ve got an awful lot of stalkers.... Rokuya Nagi: Hm.... I am quite a sinful man, if I do say so myself. Thorvald: You misunderstand. I am not stalking Nagi-san in the slightest, I-- Ah.... Yotsuba Tamaki: ......!? A bunch of stuff just fell outta his pocket! Izumi Mitsuki: And they're all pictures of Nagi...! Nanase Riku: He has pictures of Nagi as a kid too! He's a veteran stalker!! Izumi Iori: ......This picture.... It must've been taken in a rather luxurious mansion.... Ah.... Rokuya Nagi: Thanks, Iori. Rokuya Nagi: Dropping pictures of my face to the ground is rather impolite, Thorvald, is it not? Thorvald: I apologize for the unacceptable behavior-- Ah.... Sorry, Nagi-san. Rokuya Nagi: In spite of the fact that you are behaving in a manner unbefitting of a subject of Northmare, you dare to warn me? I declare hereafter.... (1) Rokuya Nagi: ....... Izumi Mitsuki: Oh.... They started talking in Northmarean.... Nikaidou Yamato: I have no clue what they're talking about.... If they were talking in English, at least I'd have some idea of what's going on.... Nanase Riku: Nagi, are you sure you don't need to contact the police? He really isn't a stalker? Rokuya Nagi: ....... It is alright. Do not worry, he will be going home now. Thorvald: Thank you for the dinner, it was very delicious. Thank you for having me over. Thorvald: Nagi-san. You can only defer for so long. You are running out of time. Rokuya Nagi: All because the entire lot of you are incompetent. Thorvald: That is, unfortunately, painfully through. (2) Yotsuba Tamaki: You mean, 'painfully true?' Thorvald: That is, unfortunately, painfully true. Good night. May you have splendid dreams. *door closes* Izumi Mitsuki: ....... He came and went like a storm. Man, what a guest.... Rokuya Nagi: A storm would have been more well-mannered than him. Nikaidou Yamato: Nagi, are you really okay...? What the hell is this stalker business? And why didn't you tell me about it? Rokuya Nagi: He is my otaku friend. I was only jesting when I called him a stalker. Nikaidou Yamato: Why'd he break the window, then? Rokuya Nagi: Perhaps he got a little carried away in his excitement. He's in a foreign country, after all. (3) Yotsuba Tamaki: Really? Like, he said he was gonna take you with him back to Northmare and stuff.... Rokuya Nagi: Don't worry. He was just copying something from an anime. Izumi Mitsuki: You're positive everything's okay, right? You're not gonna get stabbed by some weirdo outta nowhere, right? Rokuya Nagi: Oh! My friend! Thank you for worrying about me! I am very happy! Rokuya Nagi: I am alright. If there is ever a night where I cannot sleep, kept awake by my fear, I'll take my Kokona DVD with me and go to your room. Rokuya Nagi: Why don’t we watch it right now! Let's turn on the TV.... Oh.... TV News: Weekly magazines have been publishing a special scoop on TRIGGER's Tsunashi Ryuunosuke-san and Hanamaki Sumire-san! Just what kind of relationship do they have? Nanase Riku: Tsunashi-san...?

Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Modern-day Chiba Salon...? And I'm the one who’s supposedly managing it...? Momo: Ryou-san's got it all wrong. He's trying to get all of the power in the industry right now, and one of the things that'd get in his way is organizations. Momo: Power is like a game of Othello. You get people to turn to your side, little by little, bit by bit. Momo: If one or two people protested, they wouldn't stand a chance. But if all of those people teamed up.... No one would have to turn to his side and they'd all be able to resist. Momo: I gathered all my friends together so we could have fun, but he probably thinks we're that kind of organization. Yaotome Gaku: But isn't that weird? If anything, he should be gunning for you and not Ryuu, Momo-san. Momo: That's true.... Have you ever done something that he'd bear a grudge against you for? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Me!? I don't think so.... Kujou Ten: People don't usually hold grudges against Ryuu. He's not that type of person. What about you, Momo-san? Yaotome Gaku: Alright, hear me out. I'm only asking this because we don't want to doubt your innocence, not because we suspect you. But you're not on the same team as Tsukumo Ryou, right? Momo: Of course not! If it came down to attacking Ryuu, then I'd rather send an assassin to off myself! Yuki: Momo would never betray you guys. Momo: Yuki...! Yaotome Gaku: And why can you say that so confidently? Yuki: Because he'd never do something that'd make me hate him. Right? Momo: I swear on that. Kujou Ten: I think so too. Gaku, you’re being rude. They've looked after us all this time. Yaotome Gaku: I said it was just in case! Yuki: Well, how about you, Gaku-kun and Ten-kun? Have either of you ever done something to incur Tsukumo's wrath? Kujou Ten: ...This has nothing to do with President Tsukumo, but there's a boy who sees me as his enemy. Yaotome Gaku: What's he like? Kujou Ten: ......He's one of the kids Kujou-san took care of. Yuki: Kujou, again......? Kujou Ten: ....... Yuki: Well, whatever. As long as you're happy with Kujou-san. Kujou Ten: If there's something you'd like to say, please speak. Yuki: Ten-kun, are you a masochist? Momo: Yuki, that’s a little too direct! Kujou Ten: I don't really understand, but just know that I'm a sadist when it comes to senpai who ask inconsiderate questions. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Ten, that’s pushing it a bit! You might actually start a fight with him! Yaotome Gaku: Well, we can't help it. Ryuu, you were set up by that woman. We just gotta prove that. Yaotome Gaku: Is there anyone who could prove it? Was there anyone else who was there? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ......Ah. Yaotome Gaku: There was!? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: There was.... But given the situation and the fact that Tsukumo's definitely got something up his sleeve, I can't get them involved. Yaotome Gaku: This isn't the time for that shit! We're gonna get their testimony and prove your innocence! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I can't. I won't tell you. Momo: Wait, is it.... Your girlfriend? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: N-no! Yaotome Gaku: What the hell? You should've told us you were dating someone! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I'm not! Yuki: Of course he wouldn't want to get his girlfriend involved. What kind of girl is she? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I'm telling you guys, it's not a girl! Kujou Ten: If that's the case, then why don't you tell us who it is? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Yeah, but.... I don't want to get him involved.... Yuki: Fine. So be it. Momo, Gaku-kun. Hold him down. Yaotome Gaku: What are you gonna do? Yuki: Torture him. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Torture!? Huh? Wait-- Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Ahahaha! Ah! Stop! Stop it! Ahaha! It tickles! Ahahaha! I, I can't take it anymore! Kujou Ten: How merciless.... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Ahahaha! Ahahahaha! Okay! Okay! I give up! I'll talk!

Rokuya Nagi: Oh, I can't seem to catch a taxi. If I were a pegasus, I could've taken your weary self upon my back and flown to our destination. Hanamaki Sumire: So, you're going to negotiate for me, Nagi-kun? Not.... Tsunashi-san......? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Wait up, Nagi-kun! I agree with what you're saying, but you can't jump into something like this looking to pick a fight! Rokuya Nagi: Her agency is putting her, a woman all by herself, through so much strife. All because she simply wished to have a say in her work. Any gentleman in his right mind would fight for her sake. Hanamaki Sumire: Um.... I.... If someone's going to fight for me I'd rather it be Tsunashi-san and not you, Nagi-kun.... Otherwise I'll be quite troubled-- Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I never said I wasn't going to fight! If you're really a gentleman, then maybe calm down a bit first? You're getting pretty worked up about this. Rokuya Nagi: How rude! I am nothing but calm and composed right now. What you call prudence is nothing more than a coward's excuse. People may call you 'beast,' but perhaps you ought to call yourself 'chicken' instead. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Hey, that's not very nice! But I'm not gonna argue with you right now. The culture here is different compared to where you're from, Nagi-kun. Just because you're right doesn't mean you can keep insisting on something and force people into-- Rokuya Nagi: Japan is a civilized nation, is it not? Don't tell me you’d rather side with the barbarians who force women into cruel, grueling labor? Hanamaki Sumire: Nagi-kun, please stop! I just want to talk it out with my agency. Quietly and peacefully. That's why I want Tsunashi-san to come with me.... Rokuya Nagi: Fear not, o' beautiful one.... I will conduct myself with the utmost elegance and refinement. I would never do anything to tarnish your future. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Ah, right.... You did a really superb job at that press conference! If anything, you're way better at negotiating stuff than I am, Nagi-kun. Rokuya Nagi: I see you finally remember. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: What a relief! Well, with that said, Hanamaki-san-- Hanamaki Sumire: No! This won't do! It has to be Tsunashi-san! Rokuya Nagi・Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ....... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ...Why me? Rokuya Nagi: ...And for what reason? Hanamaki Sumire: I.... Because.... Because he's my type.... Rokuya Nagi: Oh, I am wounded by your words! Terribly, terribly wounded! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Aw, thanks.... I'm kinda embarrassed now-- Wait, no, no! Nagi-kun’s more geared for this type of stuff. I have this habit of saying weird stuff when I get pissed off. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Nagi-kun, please take care of her. See you later-- Hanamaki Sumire: Wait! Um, I.... I'm going to call my manager right now! Can you talk to them in my place? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Right now!? That's really proactive of you, but that was a little out of nowhere! Hanamaki Sumire: Nagi-kun, thank you! You can go now! Go over there...! Rokuya Nagi: Oh. My. God. I've never been rejected in my entire life. I feel so, so depressed.... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: I think you're way cooler than me, Nagi-kun! You're beautiful, you've got a great body, and the color of your eyes is especially-- Rokuya Nagi: Shut up! I don't want your pity! No thank you! I am not an ounce happier hearing praise from a man! Hanamaki Sumire: They picked up! Here, Tsunashi-san...! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: O-oh, okay. ...Uh, hello? Nice to meet you, I'm TRIGGER's Tsunashi Ryuunosuke.... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Yes. Hanamaki-san wanted to speak with her agency about quitting-- Ah, no-- Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Huh!? Wait, no.... Wait! What? No, that's not what I meant... Wait? Huh? Uh.... Hello!? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: Hold on-- ....... Rokuya Nagi: Oh? ...What's the matter? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ......They said they're fine with voiding your contract, Hanamaki-san. And that Yaotome Productions should take responsibility-- Hanamaki Sumire: Yay! Thank you! You saved me, Tsunashi-san! I really owe you one! Please take care of me from here on out! Rokuya Nagi: To think that he'd succeed in negotiating such delicate matters in one phone call and in a matter of seconds.... Rokuya Nagi: After all these years, I have finally lost faith in my own charms.... Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ......Was it really because of my charms? Is it okay if I think that? Wait, but that's not-- Hanamaki Sumire: I'm begging you, Tsunashi-san! Please help me! I don't have anywhere to go! Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ....... Rokuya Nagi: This is utter defeat. Please make her happy, Tsunashi-shi.... Rokuya Nagi: Adieu. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: W-wait, Nagi-kun! Don't you think something's a little off...? Rokuya Nagi: Oh! Excellent question. A beautiful woman chose to depend upon you, and not me. The world must be amiss, is it not? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: That's not what I was talking about.... Blonde Young Man: Nagi-san! Rokuya Nagi: ....... Blonde Young Man: I've been looking for you. Blonde Young Man: You informed me that we would be meeting in Akihabara, but you shook me off on purpose, didn't you? Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: An acquaintance? Rokuya Nagi: ......Yes. Of the troublesome variety. Tsunashi Ryuunosuke: ......? Blonde Young Man: Nagi-san. Please take me to your dormitory. Just as you promised.

Yaotome Sousuke: Haha. You must be joking. Yaotome Sousuke: TRIGGER is the main star of our agency. I'm terribly sorry, but we are not taking any offers for them. Tsukumo Ryou: Yaotome Productions couldn't have established itself as an independent agency without Tsukumo's help. If you turn me down, isn't that being a little... Ungrateful? Yaotome Sousuke: Well, if I did take on your offer, then everyone will see it as Tsukumo forcing Yaotome Productions to yield. Yaotome Sousuke: Both of these would cause quite unsavory rumors to spread. Tsukumo Ryou: Now, that I don't care about. Honestly speaking, I just want to scare everyone a little bit by seizing TRIGGER. Yaotome Sousuke: ....... Tsukumo Ryou: You see, I need fear on my side so I can do whatever I want. I’ll end it a way that'll send chills down everyone's spines. 'What!? No way, I can't that happened to the Yaotome Productions!' Just like that. Yaotome Sousuke: ......Tsukumo-san. Tsukumo Ryou: Everyone will ally themselves with Tsukumo Productions if Yaotome Productions is together with us. We'll even watch over you all and make sure nobody gets scorched. Tsukumo Ryou: That's just how power works. At first, everyone will be bursting with righteous indignation. 'How dare they! We'll never forgive them!' Tsukumo Ryou: But it's just like a game of Othello. As more and more people turn to my side, all of that courage will disappear and they will submit to me, one after another. Clink! Clink! Black, black, black. Tsukumo Ryou: Give TRIGGER to me. Don't worry, I'll show your son plenty of love. Yaotome Sousuke: Please leave, Tsukumo-san. Yaotome Sousuke: Anesagi! Show him out. Anesagi Kaoru: Y-yes, sir.... Tsukumo Ryou: I take that as a no? Yaotome Sousuke: Do I have to spell it out for you to understand, you brat? ......Forgive me, that was rude of me. The exit is that way. Tsukumo Ryou: I saw a picture of you the other day, from back when you had first joined Tsukumo Productions. So, who was that beautiful young woman next to you in all of those photos? Yaotome Sousuke: I have heard all about you from Momo. Including the fact that you used to work in an business of unknown nature alongside hired muscle. Yaotome Sousuke: I hope you exercise some caution and make sure that doesn't become a scandal. Tsukumo Ryou: Oh? So you're close with Momo? I see, you must be part of the Sports Club too. Yaotome Sousuke: Sports club? Tsukumo Ryou: I'm gonna go home now. Thanks for the coffee! It tasted like dirt, so much to the point where I actually feel sorry for you. *slam* Yaotome Sousuke: ......Anesagi! Throw some salt!! Anesagi Kaoru: Are you sure about this...? Yaotome Sousuke: As if it matters right now! Anesagi Kaoru: Well, I vote no because I'm the one who has to clean it up later-- Yaotome Sousuke: I will personally vacuum it so hurry up and throw!! Anesagi Kaoru: O-okay! Yaotome Sousuke: Also, make sure you call him and tell him to come to our agency right this instant!

Momo・Yuki: Good evening, we're Re:vale! Yaotome Sousuke: You're here too, Yuki? ......I don't remember inviting you. Yuki: How cold. We were at the gym building up stamina together for the charity telethon. Momo: Yuki looks super handsome when he's exercising! He even swam 25 meters down the pool! Yuki: I swam 25 meters. Yaotome Sousuke: My son did that when he was in the first grade. Yaotome Sousuke: I called you over because of Tsukumo Ryou. You were close to him, Momo. Correct? Yuki: ......So you're still hanging out with him? Momo: I'm not!! Yaotome Sousuke: Momo. There's something I'd like to ask you. Have we ever done sports together? Momo: Sports? I don't think so. I invited you out for a round of golf and you never came. Yaotome Sousuke: At the slightest hint that you and I were close, Tsukumo asked me if I was in the Sports Club. Momo: Ah.... Basically it's a bunch of people who come together and play sports together from time to time, both entertainers and people in the industry. Momo: You can really get a feel for a person when you play games or sports with them! Like, there’s people who care more about the atmosphere than winning, people who blame others for mistakes, and people who have a really broad perspective on things. Momo: And if you get closer to them on a daily basis, then you'll know if anything happens in the studio just from their face. Like 'Oh, that dude's one of those people. Watch out.' So on, so forth. Yuki: Ryuunosuke-kun and Mitsuki-kun kicked off the Idol Sports Club with him pretty recently. Yaotome Sousuke: There it is. Momo: What is? Yaotome Sousuke: Do you understand why Tsukumo tried to get close to you? Momo: I really don't know. Maybe it's because I don't suck up to him even when he bullies me. I guess he thought I was interesting? Yaotome Sousuke: No. It's because of Chiba Salon, the coalition of actors and young directors born out of a desire to fight against the ones in power in an oppressive industry. Yaotome Sousuke: Thanks to Chiba Salon, working conditions substantially improved for the actors who had been under the beck and call of industry powers. Yaotome Sousuke: You have a very expansive network. He must have mistaken your Sports Club as this generation's Chiba Salon. Momo: ....... Yaotome Sousuke: It might not even be a mistake. After all, you have only selected people you trust to be in the club and even more so since Re:vale doesn't have any major company backing them up. (4) Momo: It's way too early for him to be setting his sights on us. We're just a little community. But.... Momo: If he's under the impression that we might be an organization trying to oppose him, then Ryuu-chan's in danger. Yaotome Sousuke: You invited him to the Sports Club? Momo: I did. I made him our event coordinator too. (5) Yaotome Sousuke: That was absolutely unnecessary. Momo: Okay, but Ryuu-chan's got a good head on his shoulders! Yaotome Sousuke: I don't give a damn! Yaotome Sousuke: Hmph. So be it. Tsukumo is no longer the industry powerhouse they used to be. We'll seize this chance and split from them. Yaotome Sousuke: With the way Yaotome Productions is right now and with TRIGGER's current momentum, we have more than just a fighting chance against Tsukumo. Momo: You're signing yourself up for trouble if you lump the current Tsukumo with the old one. Even though Ryou-san looks like that, he's really sharp. Yaotome Sousuke: He's nothing more than an impudent, conceited greenhorn. If he forces our hand, then we will make your Sports Club into a real Chiba Salon and fight back. Yuki: Could you stop talking about Momo's friends like they're some kind of army? Yuki: I don't hate you, Papa. But I'd really like it if you stopped thinking so selfishly. Yaotome Sousuke: You're the last person I want to hear that from. Momo: That's so mean! Yuki's a gentleman! That, and I agree with Yuki. Momo: Even though we all come from different backgrounds and positions, we're friends working together towards one goal. Right? Momo: If you keep on thinking like that, it'll come back to bite you someday. And the ones who'll take the fall are TRIGGER and all of the other talents at your agency, Papa. Yaotome Sousuke: So long as our agency continues to assert its dominance, he'll come begging at my feet. There is absolutely no need for us to yield. Same goes for you, Re:vale. Momo・Yuki: ....... Yaotome Sousuke: TRIGGER will surpass Re:vale and Yaotome Productions will surpass Tsukumo Productions. We will become the best in Japan. Yaotome Sousuke: I have no intentions of changing my ways.
