Lesson 25: Everyone


Page 002


It's been a quick 3 months since Miki came back to 765 Pro... On a day close to grandpa's release day
The biggest incident happened!!

And that's the last one..

Producer-san!
There's a big problem!
Waaah!?

W-What's the rush...
That, nano!

Shijou Takane (17) "The Ice Queen" an unexpected retirement!


Page 003


Shijou Takane, Retirement Press Conference 961 Pro

You're the only one left from "Project Fairy..." I expected you to be a top idol, while I was the king reigning over you.

But in the past three months time, you've been repeatedly beaten by those idols at  765 Pro... It appears that this is the limit of your abilities.

If you intended to fight using your power, can you really say you've brought us to our highest point?
...What was that?

Starting from the recruiting of Miki and leaving the other interference aside, would 961 Pro have won, instead of 765 Pro?

Oh my, what's this? Don't tell you also think that this world is one only of your true skill?
How should I say this...

Those who have guilty consciences are not qualities of those who are kings!


Page 004


Hmph! Fine, leave! There are countless replacements for someone like you!

...Thank you for looking after me.

How do you feel now that your retirement has been decided?

...I have nothing to say.

N-No way...!

If only I had saved Shijou that time
This wouldn't have...

I don't like this at all!
Miki...!?


Page 005


Takane carried 961 Pro by herself, she can't just disappear like that!
She really helped Miki out a lot! So now it's Miki's turn to save her!

...I feel the same way! She's still our friend!
I can't just leave a friend behind!

...Yeah
We all feel the same.


Page 006


That's what we expected from you, Yuutarou!
Yeah, yeah! My producer understands what I'm talking about!

Since that's been decided, before we go on there's a little something...

that I want to give to you all!


Page 007


Takane!

Miki...
Hibiki...
Along with...?

Takane, do you have a little time?
There's some stuff we want to talk to you about!

I see... Well, my schedule is no longer out of my control anymore...


Page 008


...I don't think my actions up to this day were done in vain.
It's just... I can't easily erase this emptiness I feel within me...

Yeah, I understand. I'm the same way.

Did you feel the same way after you were forced into 961 Pro...?
Yeah, a little... Ah, but Miki doesn't usually think about those things!

...You're strong, Miki.

Well, I had you two there with me.
Also the feelings from everyone at 765 Pro...!


Page 009


...Is that the source of all of your abilities?

I-It isn't! I was just wondering if we had slightly closed the gap between our true abilities, Shijou-san...

It's true that at first I could feel the difference...
But lately, I've been putting forth my best effort not to lose to you all.

The diamond in the rough qualities you've all kept hidden... You're the reason the girls could bloom in the sunlight or shadow, Yuutarou.

Thanks... But I think it's all because of you, Shijou.


Page 010


It's because you were always somewhere higher than us, Shijou-san. We looked up to you and kept working hard.
If you weren't there, I don't think we would have grown as much as we did!

...Diamonds are called the king of precious stones...
It's so hard that it can only be polished with another diamond.

No matter how beautiful a shine it holds... without another diamond, it will never reach its full radiance.

Then... What "king" am I aiming for?

I do hate the way President Kuroi does things, but I like your "king" way of thinking, Shijou.
So, don't give up here... I want you to find that answer.


Page 011


We'll help out, if you need us.

B-But...

Yuutarou, hurry up and give Takane that thing!
Yeah, you brought it right?
Ah, jeez, don't tell her so soon!

W-Well... it's a symbol of appreciation...
W-What is this...?


Page 012


Open it up!
Is that really okay?
It's fine, it's fine!

This is... how beautiful...

I-It's called a garnet... It's your birthstone, Shijou.

Miki's is an lopaz.
Mine's a nepal.
Um... Don't you mean topaz and opal?


Page 013


Yuutarou made birthstone accessories for everyone!

You polished them one by one for us, right?
W-Well, I got some money as prize from that quiz...

Now you match with all of us, Takane! You're part of our group!


Page 014


Why did you prepare one for myself also...?

You may be from different productions, but you're also a fellow idol, so...
I wanted to cheer you on too, Shijou!

T-Thank you very much...

But I've just caused trouble for many people...
I do too!

I've heard rumors that I have no appeal...
Chihaya was the same at first!
I-I look like this, but I can eat a lot, you know!?
All of our idols can!
What is that supposed to mean!?

Don't worry about anything! I want you to come, Shijou!


Page 015


...All right.
I may be incompetant, but I'll accept the chance to walk alongside you...

Welcome to 765 Pro!

Oui?

Same as always aren't you, Kuroi... How many big dreaming girls do you plan on making cry?
Why you... Takagi!


Page 016


Enough's enough after this, don't you think? Your ideals should be kept to yourself.

Hmph... An idol is an image. They must be human, yet be an existance greater than a human.
From here on, I will only produce true idols of that sort!
How about yourself, how long will you continue your tightrope walking-like philanthropic work? You just learned the limits of your own stamina recently also!

Still spouting that rubbish...
Right now, I have the idols of tomorrow, girls with dreams.

How unfortunate. They'll be kicked around by the true idols I'll discover!
Hehe... I won't let that happen. As long as I, along with the idols I'm proud of...


Page 017


and the extent of my grandson's producing are here.

Hmph... So that's how it will be.

If you think you can do it, then bring it on!

Hey...  T-This kind of clothing doesn't suit me after all...
I agree...


Page 018


Hehe, I feel like, "I've been waiting for this."

It's supposed to be a "fresh" kind of image, so try not to feel shy.
Fufu, but it sorta happens naturally...

Kyaa...!?


Page 019


That was a good one!
Eeeeh!?
T-That's problematic!

Y-Yeah! You definitely can't use that one...

...Yuutarou?

I didn't see! I didn't see a thing!

I didn't! I didn't!


Page 020


Ugaaa! What do you mean by that!!
I-I'm telling the truth!

Ahaha!!


Page 021


I'm sure you all can do it. You're all making the best of your characteristics!

Except Nii-chan isn't allowed in here.
With this I can feel everyone wherever they are.

Miki feels like she's full of energy!

Let's do it all at once, everyone!

High-touch!


Page 022


Thanks for waiting

We'll start the show now!


Page 023


Being here, it feels as if the stars are much closer.
Yeah... Who would've thought that filming a movie would've brought us to Canada.

Mami and the others really wanted to come too!
Well, I've been here countless times!

Not just the stars, the moon also... It feels like I could reach it if I tried to grab it...

Ah

A UFO just passed by!?
E-Eeh!?
D-Don't scare me like that!


Page 024


B-But look, over there!

Goodness, how mysterious...! But if we were get our hands on it, we may be able to go to the moon...!
Eh!? Ohime-chin, you want to catch it!?

Let's hurry, Ami!

'Kay!

Haah... I won't fall for something like a UFO.

Hey, Yukiho, what're you...!?

Let's go too.


Page 025


H-Heeey!?

Shijou-san really helped everyone open up...

That makes me really happy!

...Just between the two of us


Page 026


Haruka, about your birthstone crystal. The truth is that your birthstone is actually a diamond.
Eh? Is that so?

But diamonds are really expensive, you know...

Then will the day I get a real one come perhaps?

Eh?

Eh? ...Ah, I-I didn't mean it like that...!
Ahahah...
Ah, well, yeah, of course!!


Page 027


Ha-ru-ka
Ha-ru-ka
Haruka-chan!

I'm off to the stage!

Okay... Break a leg!

Yeah... Our challenge doesn't end here.

From here on everyone will continue forward, hands together, through thick and thin...

Then we'll all jump forth


Page 028


Towards our brand new stage!
