- ---
- Ah, so much fun!!
- Mama hasn't felt so energetic in years!!
- Hey, hey, Ai!! Did you see Mama on stage?
- Everything went perfectly
- Yeah, yeah, it was perfect, as good as ever!!
- Why haven't you changed clothes already!?
- My, Ai is such a grouch!
- ---
- It's true that Ai was very good on stage
- But Mama saw that you didn't inspire the same kind of feelings she did
- Th...That isn't true!! Manami-san said I could lift the spirits of other people
- Manami?
- That's what she said before!! She was the person who used to be my manager!!
- Wow, what a coincidence!
- My new manager is also named Manami!
- ...Huh?
- C'mon, don't you follow the news?
- ---
- Mai-san, are you still here!?
- We need to leave as soon as possible to get to the next recording!!!
- Huh...
- ---
- Ai-chan!!?
- Manami-san!!?
- W,W,W,W,What's going on here!?
- What's Manami-san doing as Mama's manager!!
- ---
- You teamed up with Mama to defeat me!!? What kind of reunion is this!!
- C...Calm down, Ai-chan
- I wasn't trying to defeat you
- I'm sorry... I should have told you right away
- There was a lot going on so I didn't contact you...
- I... After I quit 876 Pro I ended up working in a sushi restaurant...
- Sushi?
- Yeah...
- My job was to deliver egg drop soup...
- ---
- One day Mai-san came in during my shift...
- Thank you for waiting, Miss Customer
- Please be careful, it's very hot
- I've been watching you for a while, you put on a good show with this job
- Huh?
- I like you!!
- Shopkeeper!! Let me get takeout on this kid here!!
- ---
- Eh!? Wait
- What's going on here!?
- ...And that's how I suddenly got scouted for this...
- S...So that's how it went...
- It sounds unbelievable, but it's exactly like something Mama would do...!!
- I was also surprised, since I knew who Hidaka Mai-san was immediately...
- But Mai-san never knew I was Ai-chan's former manager
- Something like that...
- But you know... With this kind of work now
- I'm glad I get to follow along with Ai-chan's work, too...
- ---
- I see... You got dragged into working for Mama
- ...But...
- In that case... do it for me!!
- I'm a popular idol now!! Isn't it okay to work for me!?
- That's why... That's why, please come back!!
- I can't stand to be on the opposite side as Manami-san!!
- ---
- Ai-chan...
- I'm sorry... I can't do that right now...
- Of course Ai-chan is important to me...
- But right now I need to take care of Mai-san
- It'd be selfish of me if I broke my promise, if I left there'd be no one to look after her...
- That person will cause trouble if she's left unsupervised
- ---
- It'd be a big mess if I left her alone in a TV station
- That'd be embarassing for Ai-chan, too, right?
- But... But...
- I want Manami-san, too...
- Manami~n, I finished changing clothes, where do we go now?
- Ah, yes, wait just a moment please!
- There's actually a meeting before the recording...
- Ah, Manami-sa...
- Well, see you later, Ai-chan
- I'm always cheering for you
- ---
- (What, what? You know Ai?)
- (Yes, it's true...)
- Stop it...
- The things that keep happening, I want them to stop...
- Manami-san was supposed to come back once I became an amazing idol...!!
- ---
- I couldn't win
- I couldn't win against Mama's talent!!!
- Alright, today there is an event at the dome for a TV station's 50th anniversary...
- Ai was specially requested from the top...
- ---
- W...What's wrong? You started trembling for some reason... The wind?
- That's wrong!!
- My body is burning up
- Like my blood is boiling!!
- Because today all I want to do is sing and sing and sing until I can't sing anymore!!!
- I...I see...
- When I'm this motivated I don't even need to think, there's nothing that can stop me!!
- Yeah!!
- ---
- Hello everyone, and welcome to the Supershow celebrating our 50 years in broadcasting!!
- Today we're bringing you a popular idol from the dome!!
- The Top Runner
- Hidaka Ai!!!
- ---
- It's time for me to start
- My own story
- Uwah... Today Ai-chan is really eager, huh
- Why so loud...?
- BRAND NEW TOUCH, let's start
- SAY HELLO
- ---
- More
- I have to do even more to show I can surpass Mama!!
- I have to show more and more of my singing ability
- I still haven't done enough yet!!
- I can't stop... Not until the day I can take back Manami-san
- Take her back... Take her back, take her back!!!
- ---
- I won't lose
- To anyone ever again!!
- Nonstop to the next song
- Let's go!!!
- ---
- (Ai-chan)
- (Waaaaa)
- Ha
- Ha
- Ha
- It's over...
- It's over, but...
- I still don't know what to do
- My breathing hasn't gone back to normal...
- ---
- The event is already over
- But my heart is still pounding...!
- I want to do more... I want to sing more...!!
- Uu...
- What do I do
- Uwaaaah
- My emotions just won't calm down!!
- ---
- Uwaaaan
- Aaaaaah
- This girl here
- What's wrong?
- ---
- I was getting worried looking for you
- This has
- Happened before, huh?
- ---
- Ha...
- Ha...
- Haruka-san!!?
- It's been a while, Ai-chan!! Have you been well?
- O...Of course I've been fine!!
- Um, since then I've been following in your footsteps, Haruka-san
- Yep, I saw on TV that Ai-chan has become successful!
- I've been watching all of Ai-chan's events until now
- I'm surprised how powerful you've become!
- ---
- Eeeh!? You were watching...!!
- I'm sorry, I never noticed...!!
- You say it like it's a serious issue
- Because Haruka-san was my most important benefactor
- I haven't even thanked you properly before...
- There's no need for such thanks! I only helped a little bit!
- But if it wasn't for Haruka-san I wouldn't even have become an idol!!
- ...I'm glad, though! It looks like my hunch was correct
- On that day when I saw Ai-chan singing happily
- I thought this kid had a lot of potential
- ---
- But I had nothing to do with being able to stand on the same stage
- Ehe, no way...
- Um, Haruka-san, what do you mean the same stage...?
- Huh? Don't tell me you didn't hear about it?
- ---
- Ai-chan's next audition
- I've been invited
- Eh
- Eeeeeh
- Ai must now compete with Haruka as well! What will she do!?
