Who is the best singer in AKB?
Tonight, these 7 girls will sing for us!
Singing Power No. 1 Deciding Round
The 2nd Diva Challenge begins now!
This program is brought to you by the following sponsors!
My legs are cramping up...
A serious competition will be held in the tournament!
The members will compete in a song of their choice!
They aim for the 2nd Diva Challenge!
Here are the judges!
So, Iwamoto-san, this is your 2nd time.
I didn't know AKB members could sing so well.
I was surprised that they sang one chorus of the song so well.
So, Iwamoto-san, I have a question for you.
You don't listen to what you sing, do you?
So, I'd like you to pay attention to how you sing in that situation.
And Iwamoto-san, have there been any changes since the last Diva Challenge?
A lot of girls started saying they wanted to join a boy band.
I feel like their awareness has increased a lot.
In order to be fair, the contestants will draw lots and decide who they want to compete against!
With SEED's first ever Diva Challenge, it's finally time to start!
Let's start with these two!
So, AKABURA will be competing against you!
Okay!
And UMEDA will be competing against you!
Yes, thank you!
UMEDA will be competing against you for the first time!
Yes, that's right!
As a member of D.Va, you can't lose if you're not D.Va-chan!
That's right! But today, I'm in a stance of trying to have fun while competing!
Now, how about you, Matsui?
Yes, I'm really looking forward to it!
Are you looking forward to it?
Yes, please start already!
Now, let's have the first one, Nakamura, announce the song you'll be singing!
I'll be singing "No matter how many times" by Dreams Come True!
A famous song!
Yes!
Why is it a famous song?
It's the theme song of a drama I watched when I was in elementary school...
Elementary school?!
I really liked it and watched it a lot...
Excuse me, Takahashi-san...
"Elementary school student, huh?!" Don't get too close!
You're scaring me!
Now, UMEDA will be competing against you...
Hitomi-san's "Love 2000"!
"Love 2000"!
I'll be singing the song I listened to the most when I was in 6th grade!
That's not really...
That's not really surprising!
I'm also pretty far away from you!
If you're that far away, you should know it!
Now, let's begin! First up is Nakamura Mariko's "No matter how many times"!
Now, let's begin! First up is Nakamura Mariko's "No matter how many times" by Dreams Come True!
No matter what happens, if there's no way out
No matter how many times, no matter how many times
I'll stand up and call out
Your name, your voice
Until they wither away
No matter how much I miss you, no matter how painful it is
No matter how hard I try, there's nothing I can do
I'll remember you
Even if I lose hope for the first time
The first time will come back
The voice that calls you
I'll make it my strength
No matter how many times
Tomorrow may be that first time
I don't know
Thank you very much!
How was it, Iriyama?
It was amazing! You sounded like a singer!
Iriyama, are you stupid?!
Let's hear from the judges.
Takahashi-san!
First of all, you chose a great song.
Also, you sang like a whisperer.
It created a world view for me.
I was attracted to you.
You were able to express yourself well.
Thank you very much!
Hirao-san?
Yes. You're good.
Especially in the chorus.
Thank you very much!
You were a little slower in the last part.
But you're a good character.
Sensei, you're also a little like a whisperer.
What about a whisperer?
You're not a whisperer.
Let's hear "Love 2000" from Umeda!
Where does it come from?
I asked myself
I'm not interested in fake things
I only want to look at the truth
I don't care about sad news
I'm sick of it since morning
The wind feels better than usual today
Change into fun clothes
I didn't realize it, I must have been spoiled
That's why I love myself and love others
Where does love come from?
I asked myself
I'm not interested in fake things
I only want to look at the truth
I've always loved you
It was fun
How about you, Kura?
I'm like a judge, but I think it was a perfect choice
It was perfect for your voice
Let's ask the judge's opinion
Yuwa-san
I'm starting to rely on her voice
I had a lot of thoughts and I think the song was right
She has a sexy voice
It was fun listening to her sing
It's time for the judges' decision
Who will the judges choose?
"Umeda", "Umeda", "Umeda", "Umeda" wins!
I see.
There's hardly any difference.
There's no difference, but I guess it's the taste.
You're not bad either.
Thank you.
Don't hate me, okay?
"Umeda" advances to the semi-final!
Who will advance to the next round?!
"Umeda" is leading! "Umeda" is behind!
"Umeda" is behind!
And "Umeda" is singing here for the first time in Bingo!
That's right, that's right.
What's up with you?
That's right, just now...
You're noisy, Chimpira!
Hey!
Hey, you!
She's not good with words.
I'm not good with words, you're the one who said it!
I'll do my best!
Okay, next up is "Puran".
"Puran" was in the last episode too, right?
Yes, it was.
Since then, my dad has been watching "Puran" every day in the middle of the night.
For my dad's sake too.
For your dad's sake too?!
That's right.
Okay, "Nagao".
That's right.
We're the same age.
No, we moved.
Ah, that's not it.
Ah, can you just say whatever you want?
Stop it with your information.
We're about the same age.
If you say that, you'll say anything! You suck!
Do your best!
Okay, first up is "Natori", who's leading.
Please announce the song you're singing.
It's Matsuda Seiko's "Sweet Memories".
Really?!
That's amazing!
What song does Suzuran from high school sing?
It's Nisa Akashino's "Grammars", which she couldn't sing last time even though she wanted to.
Ah, I see!
"Sweet Memories" by Natori Iwakara!
Nostalgic pain
I had forgotten a long time ago
But when I saw you
Only time went back
Don't ask me if I'm happy
I'm not good at lying
I do have friends, but
You didn't burn up and I lost you
Only dreams look beautiful
I don't know why, but it's gone
Kindness and boredom are sweet now
Memories, sweet memories
It hasn't hit you yet, so be careful from now on.
If you record and listen to it, you'll get a lot of that.
For people with good ears.
But if you don't do that, you'll have a very good voice and a good atmosphere.
She's a singer.
She worked hard.
It's "grammarless sky" by YAMAUCHI SUZURAN.
Flashback, you are flavor.
I remember.
Crossing that rainbow,
I want to go back to those days.
Arranging those dreams,
The two of us walked down Cromwell Stage.
The Mask Girl.
How was it singing by yourself?
It went well!
Kato, how was it?
Suzuran's back voice was really wonderful.
Thank you!
What was your back voice like?
Hai!
Now, let's listen to the judges' comments.
First of all, her voice is really strong.
People with a strong voice tend to say a lot of words.
Her voice doesn't lose to up-tempo songs.
It suits her.
It was really good.
At the end, all of the judges liked it at the same time.
Wow!
This is going to end with a big applause.
Will Natori or Yamauchi win?
Suzuran! Suzuran! Suzuran!
Yamauchi! Suzuran! Suzuran!
Yamauchi!
Yamauchi really wanted to sing this song.
Yamauchi!
This song will get better.
Natori!
If you practice it, it will get better.
It has a unique world.
I see.
Her song was too good.
Wow!
It's a really good song.
The judges praised Yamauchi and he advanced to the semi-finals!
The next two contestants will compete against each other!
The first place goes to Nakaya and the second place goes to Takeuchi!
They will compete against each other.
Nakaya, please announce your song.
Okahanako's "Garnet".
Wow!
Okahanako!
She's the best!
I really like Okahanako.
When I auditioned for AKB, I sang Okahanako's song.
That's why I want to sing my favorite singer's song here.
I see.
Takeuchi, what about you?
I will sing Miki Imai's song "Pride".
I see.
Let's begin!
I'm Nakaya Sayaka and I'll sing "Garnet".
Your back, running on the ground,
seemed like a light that illuminated everything.
I didn't know the feeling of love,
and this time that will never come back
was what taught me its meaning.
The days I spent with you, I'll engrave them in my heart.
Even if I don't remember, I hope it's okay.
Even if someday I fall in love with someone else,
you'll always be special and precious to me.
This season will pass again.
Thank you very much.
What's wrong with you?
The lyrics are too sad.
Get out of here!
What happened recently?
Let's talk about the new song.
Takahashi-san.
You have a cute voice, but you have a strong throat.
The part "you taught me" before the chorus came out with a stable pitch.
From there, the pitch got better.
There was a world view.
As you say, it's a little flat, but it's amazing when it hits you.
It's amazing that you were really a voice actor.
Takeuchi Music pride!
Watashi wa ima minami no hitotsu boshi wo miagete I look up at the southern star and swear
Chikatta donna toki mo ohoemi wo taiyasan zuri aruite That I will walk with a smile on my face at all times
Yukou to anata wo omou to tada setsunakute When I think of you, it's just painful
Namida wo nagashite wa hoshi ni negai wo tsuki ni inori wo sasageru tame dake ni ikitekita As I shed my tears, I lived only for the sake of offering wishes to the stars and prayers to the moon
Dakedo ima wa anata e no ai koso ga watashi no pride But now, my love for you is my pride
I can feel your nervousness.
What did you say, Hirao-san?
I want people to sing this song in words.
Especially...
I have lived only to offer wishes to the stars and prayers to the moon.
I want people to express themselves more.
If it's a song like this, you have to be open- minded.
If you have a sense of the world, you can definitely sing it.
I'm still 16 years old.
I see.
You're still young.
Isn't this a love song?
It's prohibited, right?
Of course.
Thank you.

Why did you choose me?
On my way home from a movie with my friends
You were lying next to me
You said you like me (you said you like me)
I'm sure you didn't even imagine it!
If you stare at me, it's pressure (pressure)
Because I'm not used to love (oh oh oh oh)
Don't expect anything from me (pressure)
I can't stay like this
I want to be beautiful
(pressure)
Because I really love you
Love is eternal (pressure)
"Nakaya" sang with a lot of emotion.
"Takeuchi" sang with a gentle voice.
Who will win?
"Nakaya", "Nakaya", "Nakaya" !
"Nakaya" wins in first round.
Thank you very much.
I think "Takeuchi" is very talented.
The voice of "Uchuuroku" is a little harsh.
It's a little harsh.
But that's what singing is like.
If you make your own world view of singing, it will grow even more.
Good luck.
Thank you.
