2 | Producer: Hoshii Miki-san lost? | |
3 | ||
4 | Ritsuko: Her opponent was Jupiter. | |
5 | ...Her original opponents for the competition suddenly forfeited. | |

7 | Yuu Yuu Original Work: Bandai Namco Games | |
8 | Chapter 22 "Awake or Guilty" | |
9 | ||
10 | Ritsuko: Seems like the judgment was strangely biased as well... | |
11 | ||
12 | Producer: This is definitely... | |
13 | ||
14 | Ritsuko: ...Yeah. Miki isn't a poor loser after all. | |
15 | ||
16 | Producer: ...Oh, excuse me. | |
17 | ||

20 | Producer: Hello? | |
21 | Thank you very much. | |
22 | - | Yes...Yeah. |
22 | + | Yes... Yeah. |
23 | One-Two->Tails and Kachou Fuugetsu are scheduled to perform... | |
24 | - | Yes...Is that so? |
24 | + | Yes... Is that so? |
25 | What do you mean? | |
26 | Please wait a minute! | |
27 | No, even if you apologize, I want an explanation...! | |
28 | He hung up, huh... | |
29 | ||
30 | - | Ritsuko: Is there any trouble? |
30 | + | Ritsuko: Is there a problem? |
31 | ||
32 | Producer: ...One-Two->Tails and Kachou Fuugetsu are going to compete with each other... | |
33 | ||
34 | Ritsuko: WHAT?! | |
35 | - | Shouldn't it be planned so that units from the same offices don't eliminate each other?! |
35 | + | Shouldn't it be planned so that units from the same office can't eliminate each other?! |
36 | ||
37 | ||
38 | Page 3 | |
39 | Producer: The program itself is a tournament where many units are separated into two teams. | |
40 | Originally they were in the same team, so they shouldn't have been matched together, but... | |
41 | ||
42 | Ritsuko: ...The program managers changed the teams? | |
43 | ||
44 | Producer: Yes, I can accept that, however... | |
45 | - | The managers only changing 765 Pro's units seems... |
45 | + | The managers only changing 765 Pro's units is... |
46 | ||
47 | - | Ritsuko: Then there's also what happened to Miki...It does seem like a coincidence. |
47 | + | Ritsuko: Then there's also what happened with Miki... It doesn't seem like a coincidence. |
48 | ||
49 | Producer: Even when I ask about it, all I hear is "I'm sorry". Same with Hoshii-san's case. | |
50 | This is most likely President Kuroi's doing. | |
51 | I'll try calling again... | |
52 | ||
53 | - | Ritsuko: It was planned that no matter who wins, we'll still lose. |
53 | + | Ritsuko: It was planned so that no matter who wins, we'll still lose. |
54 | Just like with Miki, but this loss will hurt our chances of winning the IA Grand Prize | |
55 | nomination... | |
56 | ||
57 | Producer: It's terrible, isn't it? | |
58 | - | Umm...How is...Hoshii-san...? |
58 | + | Umm... How is... Hoshii-san...? |
59 | ||
60 | ||
61 | Page 4 | |
62 | Producer: Is she depressed? | |
63 | ||
64 | Ritsuko: No, looks like you don't need to worry. | |
65 | But that's just my diagnosis. | |
66 | In the long term, | |
67 | It might be a good experience for her. | |
68 | ||
69 | ||
70 | Page 6 | |
71 | - | Makoto: Miki, I asked you to come with me on my lesson, but |
71 | + | Makoto: Miki, I asked you to come with me for my lesson, but |
72 | we haven't had a break yet. | |
73 | Aren't you overworking yourself as usual? | |
74 | I understand how you feel. | |
75 | - | There's no way you could agree with how you lost, |
75 | + | There's no way you could be ok with how you lost, |
76 | but even if you try to distract yourself with lessons... | |
77 | ||
78 | Miki: Makoto-kun! | |
79 | - | Miki agrees with how she lost, you know? |
79 | + | Miki is fine with how she lost, you know? |
80 | ||
81 | Makoto: So then why are you... | |
82 | ||
83 | Miki: I don't care if the judgment was dishonest. | |
84 | - | Miki thought that she faced Jupiter at full power and lost. |
84 | + | Miki thought that she faced Jupiter at full power, yet lost. |
85 | And that... | |
86 | ||
87 | ||
88 | Page 6 | |
89 | Miki: Was very frustrating. | |
90 | I thought I should've done more lessons. | |
91 | I wonder if this is "regret"? | |
92 | ||
93 | Makoto: Ah, "don't do anything that will leave you with regret"? | |
94 | I think you're following what Producer said. But still... | |
95 | - | From seeing you working so hard, |
95 | + | From seeing you work so hard, |
96 | I understand what you mean. | |
97 | I think Producer meant that you shouldn't feel despaired. | |
98 | ||
99 | ||
100 | Page 7 | |
101 | Miki: I'm not feeling despaired. I just wanted to try harder from now on. | |
102 | ||
103 | Makoto: ...Really? | |
104 | In that case, I'll stay with you until the end | |
105 | since you're that motivated to practice, Miki. | |
106 | ||
107 | Miki: Miki isn't good enough yet, you know? | |
108 | I'm only half of what Haruka is. | |
109 | ||
110 | Makoto: EH?! ONLY HALF?! | |
111 | ||
112 | Miki: If it gets too hard for you you can take a break, Makoto-kun! | |
113 | - | It's from Haruka's secret Hell training menu, nano. |
113 | + | It's from Haruka's Secret Hell Training regime, nano. |
114 | ||
115 | Makoto: ...You're a sly one, Miki. | |
116 | - | There's no way I would take a break with how things are flowing now. |
116 | + | There's no way I would take a break with how things are going now. |
117 | Miki, if you keep practicing like this, you'll become an amazing idol, huh... | |
118 | ||
119 | - | Miki: Well, then you'll become an even more great, cool idol Makoto-kun. |
119 | + | Miki: Well, then you'll become an even greater, cooler idol Makoto-kun. |
120 | What? | |
121 | ||
122 | ||
123 | Page 8 | |
124 | Kuroi: The report ends here? | |
125 | They seem to be doing well so far | |
126 | in the short time since the live tour. | |
127 | Of course, I can use the information section. | |
128 | The schedules of that 765 Pro lot. | |
129 | Their trends in success... | |
130 | - | By just knowing this, I can easily crush them. |
130 | + | Just by knowing this, I can easily crush them. |
131 | ||
132 | - | Producer: Then I will produce them to top idols, and you will... |
132 | + | Producer: Then I will produce them to be top idols, and you will... |
133 | ||
134 | Kuroi: Playtime is over. | |
135 | I will chase after all of 765 Pro's appearances! | |
136 | ||
137 | ||
138 | Page 9 | |
139 | Announcer: A Team: One-Two->Tails! | |
140 | B Team: Kachou Fuugetsu! | |
141 | The winner of the unexpected 765 Pro showdown is... | |
142 | B Team! | |
143 | ||
144 | Kuroi: Kuku! Look. | |
145 | In the end there was nothing you could do about it, huh? | |
146 | ||
147 | Announcer: Kachou Fuugetsu have won! | |
148 | ||
149 | Kuroi: Let's get rid of the remainders. | |
150 | Should I pressure them myself...? | |
151 | - | That 765 Pro lot has been gaining more popularity than I expected. |
151 | + | That 765 Pro lot have been gaining more popularity than I expected. |
152 | - | So, I expect this strong trick can still be beneficial. |
152 | + | So, I expect that this strong trick could still be beneficial. |
153 | Even though I haven't tested it yet, I can still profit from it. | |
154 | Even if I only waste their time, I'll still be getting rid of those eyesores of | |
155 | opponents. | |
156 | Now... | |
157 | ||
158 | ||
159 | Page 10 | |
160 | Yayami: It's been fun, huh? | |
161 | ||
162 | - | Chihaya: You...do understand, right? |
162 | + | Chihaya: You... do understand, right? |
163 | Because you lost today, the two of | |
164 | you are even further away from the IA Grand Prize. | |
165 | ||
166 | Mami: We know that! | |
167 | ||
168 | Yayoi: Yeah! | |
169 | ||
170 | ||
171 | Page 11 | |
172 | Takane: But... | |
173 | ||
174 | Mami: Ohimechin! | |
175 | Do-n! | |
176 | Umm... | |
177 | The most important thing to Mami and Yayoi | |
178 | is having fun. | |
179 | Onstage today, uh, | |
180 | when it was our turn, | |
181 | it wasn't about winning or losing. | |
182 | You know? | |
183 | Didn't we liven up the whole place? | |
184 | I think idols not making their fans happy is the worst. | |
185 | ||
186 | Chihaya: Mami... | |
187 | ||
188 | ||
189 | Page 12 | |
190 | Yayoi: Winning or losing... | |
191 | So | |
192 | that's why One-Two->Tails is OK with this! | |
193 | ||
194 | Mami: We aren't good enough to be able to do good while worrying about that. | |
195 | Of course, that's "now"! | |
196 | Huh? | |
197 | Mugyu! | |
198 | ||
199 | Takane: Let me thank you, Mami, Yayoi. | |
200 | Why we are idols... | |
201 | We lose sight of the true importance by only pursuing the end, do we not? | |
202 | ||
203 | ||
204 | Page 13 | |
205 | Chihaya: ...Right. | |
206 | Then, the two of us will have to cherish... | |
207 | ||
208 | Takaya: Singing songs. | |
209 | ||
210 | Chihaya: To aim even higher, | |
211 | we need to make sure our singing voices reach even more people. | |
212 | But, | |
213 | there is no meaning in changing our situation and the size of the stage we stand on... | |
214 | ||
215 | Takane: If you were not our opponents, | |
216 | we might have lost sight of that. | |
217 | ...I am grateful. | |
218 | ||
219 | Mami: You two are too serious! | |
220 | ||
221 | Chihaya: ...But you aren't denying it. | |
222 | ||
223 | ||
224 | Page 14 | |
225 | Chihaya: How long are you two planning on staying like that? | |
226 | ||
227 | Mami: Oh~? Chihaya-oneechan, are you jealous? Nfu. | |
228 | ||
229 | Takane: I must apologize for not noticing... | |
230 | ||
231 | Mami: Ohimechin's so cuddly~ | |
232 | Keep petting me... | |
233 | ||
234 | - | Takane: But it is...quite difficult to let go... |
234 | + | Takane: But it is... quite difficult to let go... |
235 | ||
236 | Chihaya: N-N-NO I'M NOT! I WAS JUST SAYING... | |
237 | ||
238 | Mami: Look, look! Yayoicchi is free, you know? | |
239 | ||
240 | Yayoi: Hawa? | |
241 | ||
242 | Chihaya: EH?! | |
243 | ||
244 | Takane: Oh yes, Chihaya and Yayoi are... | |
245 | ||
246 | - | Yayoi: Eh? Uh...Umm...?? |
246 | + | Yayoi: Eh? Uh... Umm...?? |
247 | ||
248 | Mami: Hey, Yayoicchi! GO! | |
249 | ||
250 | Yayoi: U-umm...? | |
251 | - | C-chihaya-san! Excuse me! |
251 | + | C-Chihaya-san! Excuse me! |
252 | ||
253 | Chihaya: HEY! T-T-T-T-TAKATSUKI-SAN?! CALM DOWN... | |
254 | ||
255 | ||
256 | Page 15 | |
257 | - | Kuroi: ...Ah, it's coming along, is it? |
257 | + | Kuroi: ...Ah, it's coming along, isn't it? |
258 | Well then, think carefully on how we should handle Kachou Fuugetsu- | |
259 | Oh...? | |
260 | The option of not letting them on your program is fine? | |
261 | The most important thing is that you understand. | |
262 | With this, Kachou Fuugetsu's chance for appealing on singing programs is gone. | |
263 | That unit can no longer do any proactive work. | |
264 | - | They won't be able to have a decent job for a while. |
264 | + | They won't be able to have any decent jobs for a while. |
265 | I have also incapacitated Kikuchi Makoto. | |
266 | Next is... | |
267 | WOAH?! | |
268 | ||
269 | Touma: ...Pretty surprised, aren't you? | |
270 | We came because you called for us, President. | |
271 | ||
272 | ||
273 | Page 16 | |
274 | Kuroi: ...How long have you been there? | |
275 | ||
276 | Touma: A little while. | |
277 | Should we not have heard that phone call? | |
278 | ...I couldn't really hear much though. | |
279 | ||
280 | Kuroi: ...Whatever. | |
281 | The schedule has changed. Can you do it? | |
282 | ||
283 | Touma: Yeah. | |
284 | ||
285 | Kuroi: Your opponent is 765 Pro's Kikuchi Makoto. | |
286 | Destroy her. | |
287 | ||
288 | Touma: This is the second time the schedule has suddenly changed. | |
289 | And yet again our opponent is from 765 Pro. | |
290 | Just a coincidence? | |
291 | ...Why do all of 765 Pro's opponents forfeit? | |
292 | It's almost as if someone's pressuring them to, huh? | |
293 | I haven't overlooked that, you know? | |
294 | ||
295 | ||
296 | Page 17 | |
297 | Hokuto: What's wrong, Touma? | |
298 | ||
299 | Touma: Hmm? Ah. ...It's about that Kuroi geezer. | |
300 | You heard him on the phone, right? | |
301 | ||
302 | Shouta: It was kind of disturbing, huh? | |
303 | (Something like "You have to do this for yourself and your program's sake".) | |
304 | ||
305 | Touma: And, | |
306 | I thought he was being too quiet with us. | |
307 | I've been thinking about it. | |
308 | ||
309 | Shouta: I don't know what's actually going on, but | |
310 | Kuro-chan is worrying more about what's going on with 765 Pro, huh? | |
311 | ||
312 | Hokuto: Yeah. | |
313 | Besides, even with everything President Kuroi has told us, | |
314 | I don't think 765 Pro are bad. | |
315 | ||
316 | ||
317 | Page 18 | |
318 | Shouta: The impressions we've heard from Kuro-chan | |
319 | - | don't match up to their actual image. |
319 | + | don't match up with their actual images. |
320 | The way Haruka-san carried herself during jobs was honest. | |
321 | Miki-san's talents were the real deal. | |
322 | ||
323 | Touma: Ah, the match with Hoshii, huh. | |
324 | I somehow don't agree with the points | |
325 | the judges gave for the outcome. | |
326 | ||
327 | Hokuto: Touma, you're hung up on that too...? | |
328 | (Well, I agree...) | |
329 | ||
330 | Touma: If he interfered too much, | |
331 | we can't say we completely won. | |
332 | ||
333 | Announcer: SO! | |
334 | Today's competition between Kikuchi Makoto and Jupiter was a delightful mix-up for the female fans! | |
335 | Well then, the long awaited verdict is... | |
336 | ||
337 | ||
338 | Page 19 | |
339 | Announcer: WHAT'S THIS?! | |
340 | In an unexpected, overwhelming landslide, | |
341 | Jupiter has won! | |
342 | ||
343 | Makoto: Just like Miki said, | |
344 | you guys are really good. | |
345 | But, | |
346 | even though you have that much talent, | |
347 | - | why can't you be a little more honest? |
347 | + | why can't you be a little bit more honest? |
348 | ||
349 | Touma: ...Are you saying... | |
350 | ||
351 | ||
352 | Page 20 | |
353 | Touma: That we won just now because 961 Pro arranged it? | |
354 | ||
355 | Makoto: There's something else as well. | |
356 | I heard from Haruka and the others, | |
357 | but haven't we been viciously attacked up until now? | |
358 | This has happened ever since Producer decided to leave 961 Pro | |
359 | and come over to our side, hasn't it...? | |
360 | ||
361 | Touma: He left...? | |
362 | What do you mean? | |
363 | ||
364 | Makoto: You know Producer | |
365 | was originally a 961 Pro spy, don't you?! | |
366 | There's been a rumor going around | |
367 | ||
368 | Touma: ("Another office stealing information, hindering them," | |
369 | - | "and taking jobs through what seem to be indecent means, right?") |
369 | + | "and taking jobs through what seem to be unfair means, right?") |
370 | ||
371 | - | Makoto: making us take jobs that have been fixed, |
371 | + | Makoto: Making us take jobs that have been fixed, |
372 | - | and they point to President Kuroi as the person that has been attacking us. |
372 | + | and they point to President Kuroi as the person that's been attacking us. |
373 | ||
374 | ||
375 | Page 21 | |
376 | Hokuto: I see. | |
377 | - | That's why he couldn't deny it when Touma pressed him then. |
377 | + | That's why he couldn't deny it when Touma pressed him. |
378 | Now that you mention it, | |
379 | when I went to visit Haruka-san... | |
380 | ||
381 | Producer: ("What has President Kuroi told you to do this time?!) | |
382 | ("What have you done to Amami-san?!") | |
383 | ||
384 | Hokuto: That 765 Pro fellow let it slip. | |
385 | ||
386 | Shouta: So that's what that was about... | |
387 | ||
388 | Touma: Seriously... | |
389 | ||
390 | - | Shouta: This story is complicated if it's true...Kuro-chan. |
390 | + | Shouta: This story is complicated if it's true... Kuro-chan. |
391 | ||
392 | Hokuto: Umm, | |
393 | Your opponents have forfeited twice now, right? | |
394 | (The time with Miki-chan and now this time) | |
395 | I heard something about pressuring 765 Pro | |
396 | from President Kuroi, but... | |
397 | ||
398 | Touma: WHAT DO YOU MEAN, PRESSURING?! | |
399 | I don't mean to gloat, but | |
400 | 765 Pro doesn't have much money or influence, right? | |
401 | If you think it's just a rumor, don't go asking all you want! | |
402 | ||
403 | ||
404 | Page 22 | |
405 | Touma: I got it. | |
406 | Kikuchi. | |
407 | ||
408 | Makoto: W-what? | |
409 | ||
410 | Touma: Next time we'll be a little more honest. | |
411 | But I think we won this time too. | |

422 | Flow Light, | |
423 | Koihana... | |

426 | please hurry up. | |
427 | - | What about our 765 Pro? |
427 | + | What about 765 Pro? |
428 | ||
429 | Kotori: From 765 Pro, | |
430 | Ryuuguu Komachi and SprouT. | |
431 | Those two groups. | |
432 | ||
433 | Takagi: Really...? | |
434 | It's a shame for the other idols, but | |
435 | everyone did a great job. | |
436 | ||
437 | ||
438 | Page 24 | |
439 | Kotori: It's almost a pity that | |
440 | - | this is everyone left as candidates in the end... |
440 | + | these are the only candidates in the end... |
441 | ||
442 | Takagi: But everyone has gained something, haven't they? | |
443 | Let's have high expectations for all future activities. | |
444 | Now | |
445 | is a crucial stage for | |
446 | Ryuuguu Komachi and SprouT, huh? | |
447 | - | From here on will be the essential moment |
447 | + | From here on will be an essential moment |
448 | for the IA Grand Prize. |
