30 minutes is not enough!
1 hour special!
Now, it's started! IDOLiNG!
Wow, it's amazing!
It's amazing, isn't it?
It's like a decoration, isn't it?
It's amazing!
Well, I'm a little overwhelmed, but I'll do my best!
Yes, it's a new...
Yes, I'm Mato Makarizumi! Nice to meet you!
I'm Saiga Morimoto, a mystery singer and dancer. Nice to meet you!
Nice to meet you!
Now, it's a new start!
This IDOLiNG!
This show is for girls who are growing up as idol singers and are growing up now.
The purpose of this show is to make you become one of them.
Well, then...
That's a lot of people!
There are 18 of us!
18 of us!
You know, in the truck scene, they call us "mad hands".
What are you talking about?
You'll be surprised, won't you?
And those who are wearing glasses...
We've always been there, even before we became idols.
Oh, thank you very much.
No, we haven't!
We've always been there.
We only remember our glasses.
And those who are wearing gorilla glasses...
We've always been there!
You have?
Yes, I'm Takiguchi Mirai.
Oh, thank you very much.
Anyway, I hope you'll do your best.
By the way, I'd like to call the previous nine members "one generation".
And I'd like to call the new members "two generations".
Two generations is fine, but we don't need "fresh" before that, do we?
No, we don't!
We don't need "fresh"!
"Fresh" is a little bit too much for an idol.
No, we don't!
Anyway, let's get started!
From today, 18 people will star in this show!
Now, please introduce yourselves one by one and tell us what you want to do in the future!
I'm Sayaka Kato, and I'm an idol number one!
What I want to do in the future...
The number of people has doubled, and I think my power will double as well,
so I'd like to work with everyone and do my best!
Yes, let's do our best!
I'm Mirumi Koizumi, and I'm an idol number two!
Now that I'm 18 and there are a lot of cute girls,
I'd like to dance and have fun with everyone!
Thank you!
Yes, I'm Endo Mae, and I'm an idol number three!
My enthusiasm, or rather my goal, is to get along with all 18 of you!
Thank you!
I'm Eto Maria, and I'm an idol number four!
Now that I'm a girl, I'd like to do my best!
Thank you!

Sakura maichi no naka ni wasureta kioku to Your voice comes back with the memories I forgot in the cherry blossom rain.
Your voice comes back with the spring wind that doesn't stop blowing.
KazeUntil that time...
Kimi ga kaze ni mau ka ni kakiwaketa toki no The faint scent of the time
Awai kaori modotte kuru comes back.
As we promised back then...
Hirulila, hirulila, hirulila, hirulila, hirulila, hirulila...
So, today we have a new member announcement special.
We'll send you off with 18 people like that!
So, Morimoto-san, what are we doing today?
Today we have a new member announcement special for the second generation, 9 people.
We'd like to introduce them in detail!
Yes, let's introduce the new members in detail!
Let's go!
Introducing the new members is up to you, senpai!
Yes, please explain!
From now on, each first-generation member will introduce each second-generation member in detail.
So, everything is up to the first-generation members!
It's a big responsibility!
The second-generation members' future depends on it!
Yes, please!
So, let's start with Kato-san!
Yes!
Yes, please!
Yes, I, Kato Sayaka Ichigo, will be introducing No. 10, Kobayashi Maya-chan!
Yes, please!
Everyone, nice to meet you! I'm No. 10, Kobayashi Maya. Nice to meet you!
Look at her, Maya. Doesn't she look like an idol from her name?
She does. She looks like a successful person.
And her birthday is... No, not her birthday. She's 19 years old.
19 years old!
Nice.
She's the same age as me, but she's only 19 years old.
I see.
That's too bad!
That was a big hurdle that she couldn't overcome.
And Maya's favorite food is omelet rice.
She looks like an idol!
And her most important thing is her friends.
And her least favorite thing is a cockroach!
She looks like a star passing by. Like Doraemon.
She's such an idol.
She's such an idol!
Really.
And?
And her hobby is sleeping.
I see.
And her specialty is violin!
Wow!
Amazing!
Specialty?
Yes.
That's right.
That's a good specialty.
I don't play it much, but that's my specialty.
But you do play it a little, right?
A little, yes.
Huh? Are you kidding me?
You do play it, right?
And...
It's okay if you don't play it. It's your specialty.
And next, there's something I'm not good at, Maya.
What is it?
It's Japanese.
Oh!
What do you mean by "something you're not good at"?
It's hard for me to talk to people.
If you use difficult words, I can't understand you.
Japanese is hard for you.
And next, there's someone I respect.
Maya-chan, there's someone I respect.
Who is it?
Yoku-kun.
Who?!
Yoku-kun.
What about Yoku-kun do you respect?
Everything about him.
Everything?!
He's very mature. He's the same age as me, but he's very mature.
Very mature.
It's nice, isn't it?
You've been looking this way the whole time.
You're looking at the camera now.
It's meaningless.
It's like communication.
What about you, Maya-chan?
Maya-chan, while you're talking...
Earlier you said you're like a righteous idol, didn't you?
Maya-chan, you said you're like a righteous idol, didn't you?
She said, "What is righteous?"
Ah, I see.
That's the opposite of what first-generation people say.
I got it!
And one thing I thought of was...
It's just a guess, but...
Maybe...
Maybe "idoling b-graph" will come in here.
It's written "b-graph" and it's "idol graph", right?
No, it's "b-graph"...
Ah, up there!
"b-graph"'s Rumi-chan...
I think it's going to be scattered above Rumi- chan's head.
It's a little dangerous, isn't it? You have to be careful.
Why is "b-graph" at the top?
"b-graph" has no complaints, right?
No, no, no...
It's not as bad as "b-grap".
Can you not say that?
"b-graph" is coming forward.
"b-graph" is feeling threatened.
I see.
That's how "b-graph" is.
Yes, that's how "b-graph" is.
Everyone, thank you for your cooperation!
Thank you for your cooperation!
Ah, "b-graph"...
It's "b-graph", isn't it?
It reminds me of when this show first started.
It reminds you of it, doesn't it?
Yes.
Okay, next up is Koizumi-san, please!
Yes, thank you for your cooperation!
Yes, what is it?
Yes, it's me!
I-DREAM's second member, Koizumi Rumi, will introduce you to No. 11, Morita Suzuka-chan!
Yes, thank you for your cooperation!
Thank you for your cooperation!
I'm No. 11, Morita Suzuka!
Thank you for your cooperation!
She's 15 years old, Masuo-san, isn't she cute?
She's cute, isn't she?
Eh, are you okay?
Koizumi-san is bullying you right away, isn't he?
At meetings and such.
What are you saying?!
Stop it!
You just stepped on me, is that okay?
We're good friends, aren't we?
Are you okay?
We're good friends, aren't we?
Let's do our best, okay?
Just now, when you glanced at me, you looked like you were about to kill me.
No, no!
Stop it!
We're really good friends, aren't we, Su-chan?
Are you okay?
I'm sorry, but I drew Su-chan's second face.
I thought it would look like this.
Her eyes are twinkling, and she's a battle-type cute girl.
Yes, without further ado, Su-chan...
Su-chan is...
Morita Suzuka-chan is...
As you can tell from her way of speaking, she's from Kyotofu, Kansai.
That's right.
She's in the same agency as Kima-senpai's Takeguchi-san.
That's right.
In the same agency.
Right?
She's a good onee-san, isn't she?
She's bullying you, isn't she?
Are you okay?
You're forcing yourself to say it, aren't you?
She's a good onee-san, isn't she?
Yes.
A live response.
Actually, Su-chan is this thin, and she's often seen as a mischievous character,
but her pose is all-round.
That's right.
Konjimi-san, your pose and your way of speaking are different.
Is it okay for me to continue?
Yes, of course.
Without further ado, Su-chan's abs are split open, aren't they?
They're split open?!
Wow!
They're split open.
As you can see in the diagram, Su-chan's abs are split open like this.
They're split open like this?!
I feel like it's different.
They're split open like this?!
This is...
You should go to the hospital right away.
This is...
I feel like it's different.
It's split open, right?
Yes, yes, yes.
Yes.
I'd like to introduce Su-chan's sports best 3.
Without further ado, here is number 3!
Basketball!
I played basketball for two years in 5th and 6th grade.
Are you good at it?
I'm good at it.
I did it in class and thought it was fun, so I joined a club.
I see.
Next, number 2!
Here it is!
Basketball!
Number 2!
If you get one more, it might be great.
Yes, track and field!
I've been doing club activities since elementary school,
and there was a middle school track and field competition, and I won first place in long- distance track and field in third place in college.
First place in long-distance track and field!
Yes, I'm really good at it.
Well, the reason why Su-chan is so fast is because,
she can run 50 meters in 7.7 seconds!
I'm really bad at it.
I'm nervous.
Um, this picture, it's a little different, isn't it?
Is it?
It's a picture of Su-chan running.
It's Su-chan.
Yes, I think it's fine.
Are you two okay?
If you think it's different, you might want to tell her properly.
It's a little different, isn't it?
It's okay if you think it's different.
It's a little different, isn't it?
I'd like to announce number one!
Number one is this!
What is it?
Ta-dah!
It's judo!
It's a little late!
That's right.
I've been doing it for five years, from elementary school to middle school.
I did club activities at school, and even when I went home, I did it because I was used to it.
Even when I went home and couldn't go home, I did judo every day.
You really like it, don't you?
Yes, I do.
Since Su-chan has a special skill, please show it to her!
What is it?
It's house hunting!
House hunting!
It's another common skill, isn't it?
It's a skill where you run between two legs and defeat them.
Yes, yes, yes.
Let's get started!
Su-chan will show us house hunting!
That's wonderful.
Wow, that's amazing.
Who will you call?
That's amazing, Su-chan.
Let's call Master-san!
Oh, it's me!
I want you to do it!
Please do it!
It's nostalgic, isn't it?
Yes!
Go for it! Go for it! Go for it!
Go for it!
Let's go!
Go for it, Su-chan!
She told me to go for it, so I'll go for it.
You're pretty good at it.
What do you think?
Amazing! Amazing! Amazing!
Amazing! Amazing!
You're fast! Fast!
You have skill.
You're so tall, but you're so good at it.
Your legs and hips are solid.
Thank you!
Please take care of Su-chan!
Please take care of me!
It's been a while since Masa-san was treated like that.
Treated like that...
Amazing! Really!
Right? It was fast, wasn't it?
She really left it to me and threw it well.
Next, Endo-san!
Please take care of me!
Yes!
Go for it!
Yes!
Please take care of me!
Yes!
When you clap your hands, your bike will go boom boom, so be careful!
No!
I'll learn from you!
Yes!
The one I'm going to introduce is...
It's you, right?
It's the 12th member of IDOLiNG, Kawamura Yui- chan!
Kawamura-san!
Yes!
I'm Kawamura Yui of IDOLiNG, who was just introduced.
Please take care of me!
She's really polite.
Yes!
She's very polite!
Yes!
She's from Shizuoka Prefecture and is 18 years old.
But she seems to have one special skill.
Yes.
What is it?
It's...
Tap dancing.
Oh!
Tap dancing!
Isn't it good?
Yes!
It's cool, it's cool!
During the audition, I heard from the staff that she showed her tap dancing.
She actually showed it to me.
It was amazing!
I really liked it and I really want her to do it again!
Yes, today...
How much tap dancing do you do?
Originally...
Yes.
Um...
I used to learn normal dancing, but my dancing teacher told me to try tap dancing and I started doing it.
Oh, you started doing it in the first place!
Yes! And...
I see.
It's fun now and...
Especially...
That's how it turned out.
That sounds fun.
Yes.
Yes, then let's do it right away!
Yes, let's do it right away!
Yes.
Then...
Let's do it!
Please!
Then...
Is it too late?
Please take a look!
From today I'm 12 years old!
My name is Kawamura Yui!
I was chosen as an idol and I'm full of motivation and I'll do my best!
Something's coming!
What is it?
I'll do tap dancing with you!
Wait! You haven't done it yet!
You haven't done it yet!
I'll tell you my favorite story!
My grades go from top to bottom!
My grades go from bottom to top!
Really?
Yes, thank you!
My left and right eyes talk to me!
The students were against it and were afraid of it, but we managed to do it together.
Everyone, please continue to support us!
Thank you very much!
That's all! No. 12, Kawamura Yui-chan!
Thank you very much!
Moiple, is your grade second from the bottom?
Oh, this is an old story.
Oh, it's an old story!
Yes, it's an old story.
Yes.
Yes, thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
Yes!
Now, next up is Etto-chan!
Yes!
Yes, I...
Yes!
Oh, I'm sorry. Thank you very much!
Yes, I, No. 4, Etto Maria, will introduce you to...
No. 13, Nagano Serina-chan!
Yes!
Everyone, nice to meet you!
I'm Nagano Serina, who has recently become No. 13!
I'm the youngest, so I may cause you all a lot of trouble!
But! But! Please take care of me!
Yes, you're doing your best!
She's got a new character in her!
Yes!
She's doing her best.
What? Etto-chan, are you pulling my leg?
No, no!
It reminds me of when I was 13 years old.
Oh, I see! You were 13 years old!
Yes, yes!
It was like this in the past.
You were the youngest, Etto-chan, right?
Aren't you in middle school now?
I'm in middle school now. I'm in middle school now.
You're getting carried away, aren't you?
Are you okay?
Not at all! I'm already...
Are you able to breathe properly?
Etto-chan at the time was a little cruel, but...
That's not true!
Are you okay?
Etto-san is...
That's not true, right, Tsu-chan?
What's wrong with you?
Ah, Tsu-chan, leave it to me!
What's wrong with you?
You're mean! You're mean! You're mean!
What? What? What?
That's not true, right?
You can read the atmosphere, right?
Yes.
Because this is middle school... middle school's old school.
Yes, but I've been studying properly for a year now, so as a senpai, I think I should teach my juniors properly.
Oh!
She's a senpai!
You've improved, Etto-chan!
Yes!
Are you okay?
Yes, I'm fine.
Etto-chan is going to teach you?
Yes!
Are you okay?
Yes!
Is there anything you can absorb from Etto-chan?
There isn't!
There is! There is! There is!
There is!
The anxious atmosphere...
It's kind of nice, isn't it?
Yes!
And so, today, I'd like you to remember... I mean, Seina-chan...
Yes!
When you're in idling, what you should learn is...
Yes!
It's about senpais, but there are 1 to 9 senpais, right?
Yes!
There are, right?
So you can... get involved with these senpais...
First of all...
First of all!
Yes!
Etto... You absolutely must not forget this!
Even if you're younger than them, you can't speak up when you're older than them!
I understand!
You definitely can't speak up!
That's right!
You shouldn't, well, say things about your age, but still!
Yes!
I think it's good.
And next, we have Nigo's Koizumi-san, right?
Yes, it's been a while. Nice to meet you.
Nigo's Koizumi-san, when you're in this kind of mood,
you shouldn't talk about useless things.
What do you mean?
If you're not good at it, it's not good.
So, Lumine-san, you're scared?
No, I didn't say anything like that.
I'm not scared!
On the contrary, it's weird.
I'm not scared.
As long as the camera is rolling, you'll be fine.
Yes!
As long as the camera is rolling, you'll be fine!
Be careful of your neck!
Why do you say it like that?
And next, we have Endo and Mai-san.
I think you're really quiet and kind-looking,
but you shouldn't talk about makeup.
You don't have to talk about it.
No, no, no!
But, you know,
especially words like "your eyebrows are thin"
shouldn't be used.
Yes, I understand!
Eto-chan, you're not good at talking, are you?
Shouldn't we leave it to you?
No, no, no!
Please leave it to me!
Also, about Miraccho in the afternoon,
Miraccho-san eats a lot.
When we go out to eat together,
she takes everything with her.
It's okay! It's okay!
I'll eat it all!
I see.
Eto-chan and Nagano-san, you're really close, aren't you?
Thank you!
Nagano-san, what do you call yourself?
What is it?
On top of a stone...
Three days?
It's not three days, it's three years!
It's short!
It's three years, right?
The three of you have met, right?
Yes, it's been three years.
Then, who is your favorite celebrity?
It's Shotoku-taishi, right?
It's a 13-year-old-like answer.
Edo-chan, what is your celebrity name?
My celebrity name is...
Lutari-shinji?
Shotoku-shinji?
No, that's not it!
What is your favorite celebrity?
My favorite celebrity is...
Marie Antoinette-san, right?
Yes.
What did you do?
Marie Antoinette-san got her head cut off.
That's mean!
Old man!
I'm not stupid!
Yes, please end it!
Thank you for coming today, Senya-chan!
Thank you for having me!
She hasn't called you yet, has she?
I was going to skip you, Takiuchi-san, but...
Takiuchi-san, please introduce yourself!
Yes! My name is 14-year-old Hitomi Sakai!
Yes, please introduce yourself!
I'm Hitomi Sakai, and I'm a new 14-year-old idol!
It's been about a week since I left school...
A week?!
Yes, but...
I'll do my best not to lose to the people of the city!
Thank you for having me!
I'm Hitomi Sakai!
Sakai-san is 18 years old and just came back from Miyazaki prefecture last week.
From Miyazaki prefecture!
Tokyo is like a festival every day.
There are a lot of people and I'm surprised every day.
Don't you think Miyazaki prefecture is really cute?
It's wonderful, isn't it?
But for Sakai-san, who looks so pure and innocent, you have a little problem, don't you?
A problem? What is it?
Since I came to Tokyo, I want to use a lot of Tokyo dialect and become a cool city person!
So I want to be able to speak standard Tokyo dialect, but...
No, no! That's a good thing you're doing now!
I think it's definitely a good thing!
Then, Mr. Romas, I'll also use this Kansai dialect and become a really good character!
No, no, no...
No, no, wait, wait...
Mr. Tokorozawa!
That's not it! I'm from Kansai! I'm from Osaka!
You still haven't become a Kansai character!
Don't push yourself too hard!
Well, well, well...
That's right, but now that I think about it, I think it would be better for me to use Kansai dialect more and more!
Yes! I don't think you should fix it too much!
Is that so?
Yes!
Then, I'll do it like this!
Yes!
That's definitely a good thing you're doing now!
Yes!
Then, Mr. Sakai, I'll use this special skill!
Cosack Dance!
How did you become able to do it?
When I did a challenge with my friends, only I was able to do it well.
That's why I think this is a talent I was born with.
Cosack Dance!
Yes!
So you have a natural talent for cosack dance.
Yes, that's right.
I see. Then, let's have you show us right away!
Music, start!
Wow!
Wow, her footwork is strong!
Wow!
Wow, wow, wow!
Wow, that's good! You're good!
Wow, is Miracchio going for it? Is Miracchio going for it?
Wow!
Is he going for it, Mr. Takeuchi?
He went for it!
Hey!
Wait! Close your legs!
This is bad! This is bad!
This is bad!
Wow!
This is bad!
Yes! Thank you!
Mr. Takeuchi, that's amazing!
I'm sorry if Mr. Takeuchi's inappropriate image is disturbing you.
Yes.
I'm sorry.
Thank you very much.
Hey!
What are you doing for me, Mr. Takeuchi?
This show is nothing!
Please stop it, really!
This is an idol show!
Yes!
Hey! Don't let this show get out of control!
I beg you!
It's fun.
Please do. You're elegant.
But is this the end?
This is a dance that will be passed on to the Netherlands.
Does this mean the end for me?
This is the end.
Is it the end?
Yes.
Please continue to support this funny and very pure Sakai Hitomi-chan.
Please do.
Well, you know... I'm really sorry about that!
We're really sorry!
We're really sorry about that!
We're really sorry about that, everyone at lunch.
Okay, next up is...
Yes!
Ms. Tonoka, please!
Yes!
Idling No. 6, Erica Tonoka, will introduce No. 15, Nao Asahi!
Nao Asahi!
Yes!
Idling No. 15, Nao Asahi! Nice to meet you!
Yes, nice to meet you!
Yes! Um, Nao-chan, you have such a great style and you look like an adult,
but in fact, you're the same age as Serina Naga, right?
The minimum age is 13 years old!
13 years old?!
13 years old!
Wow!
13!
And you have such a great style, you look like a model!
Ah!
Does that mean I'm short?
Huh?
You're kind of young and short.
No, no, no!
Don't say that!
It's nice of you to say that all of a sudden!
I was surprised!
You were surprised, weren't you?
It's fine! Let's say what we think more and more!
Thank you!
I wonder what it is...
It feels like you're in your early days...
I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
Yes, I'm sorry!
But you know, you're 13 years old and you look like an adult...
Yes, I'm 13!
And you have such a great style, you look like a model...
Yes, yes!
And you have such a small head...
As expected of an ex-model!
You're wearing it properly!
It kind of feels like that, doesn't it?
That's right!
Actually, what Morimoto-san said is correct!
And you're a fashion magazine "Love Berry" model who is extremely popular with teens!
Ah!
I knew it!
Right?
That's right!
How long have you been doing it?
Have you been doing it for a long time?
I've been doing it for about a year now.
You've been doing it for about a year now?
Yes! And today, I've brought that magazine with me!
Wow!
Eh? Eh? That's...
It's Nao-chan!
Ah, it's true! Amazing!
Wow!
Isn't it great?
There's no one like you!
There isn't!
That's amazing!
There isn't?
Yasuda-san, Yasuda-san, what do you mean by "there isn't"?
I mean, I don't think there's anyone like you!
I see!
Until now, right?
I see!
You've been doing it for a long time, haven't you?
That's right!
Yes, yes!
That's how cool and cute you are, Nao-chan!
But there are three things you want to do when you join an idol group!
Yes!
The first one is this!
I want to make people who support me happy!
That's a good one!
For example, what do you want to do?
I want to be able to work because of my fans, my acquaintances and my family.
For those who support me, I want to do various activities and idol activities...
She laughed a little.
She laughed with her nose.
Various activities, right?
Yes! I want to do my best in those activities.
I see!
That's wonderful!
I'm looking forward to it!
It's like you've lost sight of your idol group again!
What?!
We haven't lost sight of them!
You've lost sight of them!
We have them, don't we?!
We do!
Next one, please!
The second one is this!
I want my body to become softer!
For example, what do you want to do?
She wants her body to become softer.
She wants her body to become harder, right?
A little...
How hard is it?
A little...
Can you bend it forward like you would a crossbow?
Crossbow is like that, isn't it?
It looks pretty similar!
Your fingers aren't as hard as you say they are.
That's enough bending it forward like that!
There's more, right?
Why don't you try some?
Watch me! Watch me!
Watch me! There are even harder people than me!
See, I told you!
Even if you've been an idol for a year and a half, there are still people like you!
It's okay, don't worry.
It's fine now. It won't bend at all.
Why do you want to be flexible?
Well, I want to be good at dancing and stuff like that,
but when I'm flexible, I think I look cool.
If you're flexible, you look cool.
Does that mean you looked uncool just now?
No, I didn't!
I didn't look uncool at all!
I'm sorry, I'll fix it!
I'll do my best!
She's totally scared now, isn't she?
Everyone's staring at me!
I see.
I'd like you to look cooler, but here's the third one!
What is it?
I'd like you to talk better!
What does that mean?
I'm not very good at talking, but I'd like to be as good as you.
But we're not there yet!
For example, who do you think is good at what?
Ah, it's Eto-san!
Eto-san! Ah, it's Eto-san!
Eto-san!
What about her? Is there something about her?
Eto...
Ah, you think Eto-san is very good at what she does?
Yes, I've been watching your show and...
Why are you trying to approach her?
It's okay, you can stay in the middle!
Right? Because you're the main character!
Yes!
When you say "yes" and "go ahead", I can respond right away.
That's what I like about you.
You've done it more than 300 times, right?
At first, I couldn't do it at all either.
I see.
Yes.
It's okay! You've been holding back until now!
You've been holding back until now!
It's okay! You can stay in the middle!
It's nothing!
It's okay! You can stay in the middle!
It's been a year!
It's nothing!
She's a senior in club activities!
I see.
So you think that Eto-san is good at it?
Yes, of course!
Eto-san is interesting!
Yes!
Eto-san, you said you did something very interesting recently.
What was it?
Eto-san, you said you did something very interesting recently, didn't you?
Recently... Recently...
I can't think of anything!
This happens sometimes, doesn't it?
That's right.
There are days when you can't think of anything.
That's right.
When you can't think of anything, you just let it go, don't you?
That's right.
You just say you can't think of anything.
And finally, Nao-chan, I heard you were a cheerleader in elementary school.
I'd like you to perform for us!
Yes, yes!
It's okay! You can do it at your own timing!
Play! Play!
M-master!
Master! Master!
Master!
Um...
Sorry!
Our MC is called "master"!
Master, master...
Play! Play!
Master's...
Play! Play!
Master's...
Everyone, please try making this kind of tea!
That person can do it herself, right?
I couldn't see the camera!
That's right!
Let's study in that area!
Let's learn from humans!
Thank you very much!
You even cheered for me...
But it doesn't change the fact that I'm in a bad mood.
Now, let's continue!
Yazawa-san!
Yes! I, Yazawa Rika of idol group No. 7, will introduce myself!
I'm Kikuchi Ami-chan of idol group No. 16!
I'm Kikuchi Ami-chan of idol group No. 17!
I'm Kikuchi Ami-chan of idol group No. 16!
I'm 17 years old!
I'm a high school student!
Nice to meet you!
Ami-chan is from Hokkaido and she's a hard worker!
If you ask me what I work hard for...
What do you work hard for?
Yes! I work hard for sports!
That's right!
Ami-chan, please tell us what sports you're good at!
I'm good at volleyball!
I learned it from 3rd grade to 9th grade!
And when I was in Hokkaido...
Um...
When I was in Hokkaido, I was selected!
She was selected!
I'm really nervous!
It's okay! It's okay!
That's what I want from this show!
That's what I want!
That's cute!
Thank you! I'm nervous!
Next! Next, please!
She's very hard-working and does her best!
Next up is...
She does her best in idol groups!
I've always wanted to join an idol group, and now that I've joined, I'll do my best.
People say I have a loud voice, so I'll try to speak up and do my best!
And next up!
She does her best with a weird face!
The seniors in idol groups all have weird faces...
You don't have a loud voice!
There's no way you don't have a loud voice!
You should have a loud voice!
It's really wonderful, so I want to learn it more and more...
You want to do it?
Yes! But...
I want to do it, and I'll do my best!
Next up is Ami-chan, who has a weird face!
Cute!
It's okay, right?
I think you're okay with that.
But I also have a weird face, and I'm good at it.
I don't think I can lose!
Say it more!
It's a weird face, right?
Yes.
But Ami-chan is still...
Oh, that's good!
That's a high score!
She really did her best!
You really can't lose against this!
What is this?
What's wrong? Why?
Why are you using tools without permission?
That's not it!
I'm sorry...
Don't apologize!
But...
But there's still more!
There's still more?
Ami-chan has challenged me to a battle...
Oh, there it is!
This doesn't look like it!
You're holding back a little, aren't you, Toyotomo-san?
Um...
When we were having this meeting...
She told me to do a weird face and I did it!
But the staff and Elka-chan told me to do a straight face...
And told me that I haven't lost at all yet...
Oh, you have to do more!
Yes! They told me I haven't lost at all yet...
I see!
I really did my best!
What kind of advice is that?
That's why...
That's why I'll tell you at the end!
Wait, wait, wait...
Hey you!
You can't write it all at once like that!
You have to fight with that kind of material!
It's fine!
Well, you can see the difference in my skills at the end, can't you?
Yes!
In any case!
I'm looking forward to working with you, Kikuchi Ami- chan, who will do her best in everything!
Yes!
I'm looking forward to working with you!
Well, you two are very conservative, aren't you?
Now, next up is Honchi-san, please!
Yes! I'm Honchi Hachigo, and I'd like to introduce you to 17-year-old Miyake Hitomi-chan!
Yes, I'm looking forward to it!
I'm Miyake Hitomi, and I'm 17 years old.
15 years old?
It's my first time working as an idol, and I'm sure I'll cause you a lot of trouble with a lot of things I don't know,
but I'll do my best, so please take care of me!
Yes, please take care of me!
You're so young!
Well, I'm Miyake Hitomi-chan, but I'm the same age as Eto-chan!
Wow!
I'm the same age as Eto-san, but I'd like to be able to talk as well as Eto-san does!
Don't say that!
Eto-chan's talking is getting a little too much, isn't it?
Don't say that!
Miyake-chan is a little younger than you at all!
No, you're not younger!
You're the same age!
I'm the same age as you!
You're the same age as me!
You're talking like you're from a big family!
I'm the same age as you!
You're not from an elementary school, are you?
And also, Miyake-chan is really good at dancing!
She's really good at dancing!
Eto-chan likes dancing, but she also does hip-hop, jazz dance, and ballet and all kinds of other things.
Yes, I know it's obvious, but I'd like you to show us your ballet!
Yes!
Please!
It's not like I'm very good at it, but please watch!
Yes!
It's a swan lake.
Wow!
Yes!
Oh! It's coming!
Wow!
Amazing!
Isn't it amazing?
Yes!
A little...
Koizumi-san, please show us your forefoot.
What is this?
What is forefoot?
A little...
Can you do wide balance one more time?
Look, Koizumi-san...
Look, it's soft!
Hey!
Hey, Koizumi-san!
Earlier, earlier, earlier!
Show me!
Koizumi-san, front, front!
Do it like this, do it, do it, do it!
Look, Koizumi-san!
Look! Look at this!
Haruka-chan, can you do it?
No, I can't do it!
Wow! It's so soft!
Yes, it is!
Yes!
How long have you been doing this?
Ten years?
Yes, about ten years.
Yes!
Isn't it amazing?
Yes!
That's amazing. Cute, cute Miyake Hitomi-chan! Everyone, please take care of me!
Please take care of me!
There are a lot of girls who are good at dancing.
Lastly, Yokoyama-san, please take care of me!
Yes, instead of using a sketchbook, I would like to do it in the form of an interview.
Yes, I, No. 9 Yokoyama Rurika, will introduce you to No. 18 Michelle Miki-chan!
Michelle Miki-chan!
Yes, I'm No. 18 Michelle Miki. Please take care of me!
Yes, among the new members, I think she's probably the one you're paying the most attention to.
You're interested in her, aren't you? Her name is Michelle.
Yes.
She's like a character who's about to crush Ponchi.
Ponchi, that's a little dangerous!
Yes!
She's completely...
Yes, I'd like to ask Michelle-chan, who's about to crush Ponchi, a lot of questions!
Yes, yes!
Yes, please take care of me!
Please take care of me!
First of all, how old are you?
I'm 16 years old!
Yes, you're the same age!
Oh, you're the same age!
Yes, we have a lot in common.
I see.
Yes.
Also, since you're a couple, I'd like to know where you're from. Where are you from?
We're from Australia.
Australia!
Oh, you're from Australia!
Yes, Australia is fashionable, isn't it?
When did you come to Japan from Australia?
About a year and a half or two years ago?
That's recent!
That's why you can speak so much Japanese!
That's why you speak so well!
That's amazing!
Yes.
So, since you came about a year ago, you can speak English now?
Perfect!
She said "perfect"!
That's amazing!
She really crushed it!
She's serious about it, isn't she?
I can also speak it!
Then try speaking it, Vietnamese woman!
Try speaking it!
Try saying something!
Try speaking it!
Say something!
Perfect.
English?
Why do you speak English?
Then, what about Japanese?
My mom is Japanese, so my mom taught me, but Japanese is a little difficult.
It's difficult, isn't it?
No, but if you can speak English and say Katakoto characters, I think it's really delicious.
It's delicious, isn't it?
Thank you.
Then, I'd like to ask you about your favorite drink.
Well, I like strawberry milk.
Strawberry milk!
It's fashionable, isn't it?
Then, who do you respect?
The one I respect is my mom.
Your mom.
Can you say your mom's pronunciation in English?
I love my mom very much.
Cool!
It seems like you can make a new project.
Cool!
Then, I'd like to ask you about your favorite talent.
It's Jubari Moe.
Cool!
Say it! Say it!
Say it one more time!
Is it Jubernix?
What?
Jubernix... Who is it?
Is it Jennifer Lopez?
No.
Isn't it cool?
It's cool.
As expected, you have a big goal.
I see.
Then, lastly, I'd like to ask you about your specialty.
Well, singing and dancing and...
After all, I came to Japan and...
Koto!
It's amazing, isn't it?
Since we don't have much time today,
you can try Koto next time.
Please look forward to it!
Thank you very much, Michelle and Victor!
Thank you!
Cool!
Okay, then...
It's over!
Let's meet again! Goodbye!
Idling!

Moteki
Thank you very much! It's amazing, isn't it?
Eighteen people, it was a tremendous Moteki, wasn't it?
Yes, it was.
Until now, it's been "Gokuchi".
Tonight, from nine o'clock to seven o'clock on MUJI TV, it will be broadcast on three days in a row.
Please take a look!
Yes, with that said, we have eighteen people today.
Then, finally, let's end it together, shall we?
Yes!
Are you ready?
Yes, let's go!
One, two...
Wow, that was really amazing!
It was wonderful.
It's amazing, isn't it?
Yes, we were finally able to introduce you all today.
It's good to know your individuality.
You all have your own special skills, don't you?
I don't have any in my idol career.
Kato-san, what are you good at?
Me?
Nagoya! Nagoya!
I'm not good at it.
Eto-chan is good at glasses.
Glasses and sumo wrestling.
Oh, sumo wrestling. You started doing it here.
I see.
How about you, new members?
You introduced us to many things today.
How about you, Kaamura-san?
I was nervous, but...
You're nervous now, aren't you?
It was fun, and I'm glad you all watched it.
Thank you very much!
Where are you from, Kamaura-san?
I'm from Hamamatsu in Shizuoka.
Hamamatsu.
Hamamatsu, right?
Yes.
How about you, Michelle-san?
I was really nervous.
My heart was beating really fast.
Your heart was beating really fast, wasn't it?
I'm sorry for my high tension.
No, no, it's fine.
It's great that you're so energetic.
And you, Sakai-san, how about you?
Um...
My pace is a little fast, so it's a little slow for me.
So, in order for me to keep up with this fast pace,
I want to work harder.
That's a good way of putting it.
You have your own personality, don't you?
Yes, it's great.
Yes, and...
How about you, Morita-san?
Yes, Morita-san, how about you?
Um, I'm really bad at dancing,
so it's better for me to learn how to dance than you all.
It's fine, it's fine, it's fine!
There are a lot of you, so it's fine!
Um...
The moment Su-chan decided to come in,
Mira's Kansai dialect really improved.
Really!
Stop it, come on!
Isn't it great?
I asked you because you're from Ese!
No, you're from Osaka!
You're from Osaka!
But we're from Kyoto, so it's a little different.
Yes, it's slightly different.
I see, I see.
Su-chan is more relaxed.
Relaxed?
Relaxed, relaxed.
You're more Kyoto-like.
Cute, yes, yes.
I see.
Yes, yes.
Thank you.
How about you, Kikuchi-san?
Yes.
I'm really nervous right now,
and my heart is really pounding.
Pounding?
Pounding!
Pounding is probably the sound of your heart.
What kind of sound is pounding?
Yes, and my weird face too.
After all, I have to look good in front of everyone.
No, it's fine.
At first, everyone felt the same, right?
Being nervous.
Yes, I was really nervous.
Well, Kato-san wasn't that nervous from the start.
I was nervous!
I was happy!
I was really happy.
Are you nervous?
I was really nervous, but...
I'll do my best!
Please do your best!
I'll do my best!
Let's do our best!
Everyone, please support her too!
And...
Her name is Kobayashi-san, right? Kobayashi-san.
How was it for you today, Kobayashi-san?
In the blink of an eye,
I'm looking at the monitor, right?
I feel like I'm...
What is it?
A viewer...
Huh? A person who watches TV...
What? A viewer?
A viewer.
A viewer is fine.
I feel like I'm a viewer,
and I've forgotten that I'm in the frame.
Oh, you tend to look at the monitor instead of the camera.
Yes, that's right.
My mouth might have been open, but...
Yes, there are people whose mouths are open again.
Yes, my mouth is open, but my eyes are open.
Yes, it was fun!
Of course, one day you'll be forced to open your mouth again.
Are you okay?
At first, there's a lot you don't know, and you might get nervous, but...
- Yes, let's do our best. - Maya's style is amazing, her legs are long...
- Her legs are long, yes. - It's the complete opposite, this.
- Look... - The complete opposite...
- For now, you're in the same group. - I'm surprised.
- You can't throw everything away. - Yes.
- I'll leave a little bit, okay? - Yes.
- Yes, and Miyake-san... - Yes.
- How was it? - Um, today...
- It's my first time appearing in front of people, so it's amazing... - It's your first time today, right?
- I was so nervous... - Yes.
- Before the show, I started crying and caused trouble for my seniors... - You were nervous.
- I caused trouble for my seniors... - You were nervous.
- So I hope I don't do that again. - I see.
- But Maipur is also your first time, right? - Yes, it is.
- It's like you're seeing me in the past. - Yes, it is.
- So it might be good if you give Maipur some advice. - Yes.
- Please do. - Please do.
- Today, like Maipur, you're only going to talk, right?
- I'm not talking, I'm not going anywhere.
- But since it's the same agency as Rumi-chan's...
- Just now, Rumi-chan was like an older sister... - Are you okay?! Are you not being bullied?! Are you okay?!
- I'm not being bullied, I'm like an older sister! - Are you okay?!
- We're in the same agency... - Yes.
- We're good friends... I promise I'll go to Super Stocks again.
- You! - Yes, Super Stocks!
- Even if you go to Super Stocks, what are you doing there?! - I'll go there again.
- That's right. - Yes.
- Please treat me well! - I'll treat you well!
- Let's be good friends! - Please!
- Koizumi-san's eyes aren't smiling at all!
- I'm smiling! I'm smiling! - You're an older sister, right?
- Koizumi-san's eyes aren't smiling at all! - You're an older sister, right?
- Yes! Ah, I'm okay!
- You're okay? - Yes! Ah, I'm okay!
- Also, since it's "One Piece" today, we're doing balance games...
- If you have the opportunity, please do balance games in the program...
- Balance games?! - Balance games?!
- In a straight line... - In a straight line?!
- Your feet are here?! - Your feet are here!
- Ehhhh?! - Ehhhh?!
- Impossible, impossible!
- That's amazing! - That's amazing!
- It looks like you can use it for something!
- I hope I can use it for something!
- It's called "eye-shing", everyone's aiming for eye-balance!
- Okay, we're done, good luck!
- And... Nagano-san! How was it today?
- Um... I was really nervous!
- You were nervous? - Yes!
- You don't look like you're nervous!
- You're sweating like crazy!
- No, no, I can't talk like this!
- What is that?!
- You're 13 years old! - I'm 13!
- Aren't you nervous?! - I'm not nervous!
- Ah, you said you weren't nervous! - Yes!
- You said you weren't nervous! - Yes!
- Please listen to me!
- Amazing! - Amazing!
- With this angle! - Amazing!
- To be able to say that to Masa-san on the first day...
- That's amazing! - That's amazing!
- Can I do it one last time?! - Sure, what is it?
- Can I do it one last time?! - Yes, what is it?
- Amazing! - Amazing!
- What is it?! - One, two...
- Do your best! - Mushroom!
Run away! Run away!
What's wrong? What's wrong?
She's weak.
Let's do our best!
Everyone else doesn't have to do that.
Why?! Why didn't it explode?!
Let's do it without slipping as much as we can.
I'm sorry! I slipped!
It's okay.
And lastly, Asahi-san.
Yes.
Um...
What is it?
I thought you'd be happy about it.
Um...
Before I came in here, I was really anxious.
But now that I'm in front of so many people...
They're cheering for you.
I'm surprised. Thank you!
Asahi-san, where are you from? Are you from Tokyo?
I'm just...
You're just...
I'm from Fukuoka! Am I not normal?!
No, you're not.
Yes.
I see.
That's right.
Yes, that's right.
You're all very unique.
As expected of an idol group.
You're all very unique.
It reminds me of the beginning.
It's tough.
Don't lose weight.
Yes, that's right.
For now, this week, the 18 of us will see you off.
Everyone, let's meet again tomorrow!
Goodbye!
