Always searching, I wanna keep dreaming forever
"My" very own sparkling world
(Rat a tat!!! Let's knock on the door of dreams, now)
(Rat a tat!!! Let's tap, tap as hard as you can!)
Beating deep in my chest "Hope" is about to start frolicking
(The moment we feel excitement, get started!)
"Let's go right now!" I hesitated, but I pressed on
(Hey, hurry up, look forward!)
There's a shining door in front of each and every one of us
Once you feel the urge, Go reach out your hand
Be more colorful, more fierce
Everyone, everyone, the future's here!
It won't go unnoticed
Send out! Send out! The sound of "hope"
Rat a tat!!! Let's knock on the door of dreams, now
Rat a tat!!! Let's tap, tap as hard as you can!
That faint light remains unburnt
Even now, it lingers bluishly
Enough to melt frosted glass
Could it be that I have enough of a secret
to dissolve away the cloudy glass?
Damn, that's amazing.
It's so wonderful.
She didn't even know the performance might stop.
Being able to sing like this...
Is because we're here, isn't it?
Yeah.
Those precious feelings I heard about back then.
This theater is... to me...
What should we do?
Grand opening performance.
Finally, our debut before our beloved patrons.
It's a bit different from that TV recording we did before, right?
Yes.
Since they're coming all the way to the theater.
We have to make them feel it was worth coming.
But...
What kind of us should we show them?
Thank you for...
Creating countless live shows
We will now begin here
Morning! I jump up to my feet in a flash and say "good morning!"
Hey, look at the blue sky, it gives a hint of a wonderful meeting
Calling! A message from my members reads "Let's do our best!"
"Let's do our best!"
Throbbing...
and excited...
Ha...
Ha... huh?
HUH?!!
Such a stubborn, embarrassing thing...
No no, you were sparkling like a real princess.
Yes, it's wonderful.
Ah, sorry for disturbing you.
N-no...
I was moved!
Tsumugi-san singing under the starry sky...
Truly the epitome of a Yamato Nadeshiko!
Oh please...
We were thinking about things for our opening performance.
I see.
I'm in a similar situation.
I wanted to calm my nerves a bit.
This song "Thank you!" is special.
I still remember it clearly.
When I first heard it at the field concert.
We too...
We sang together!
Yes.
I felt enveloped by everyone's voices and feelings.
It was very warm.
And also.
From now on, I'll be alone in Tokyo.
That's what I was feeling when Kasuga-san told me.
You're not alone because we're all here.
Both me and everyone else are here.
That's right! You can think of the theater as your home.
Full of family!
Mirai-san...
From that moment on, the theater became a precious home for me.
That's why...
For the opening performance, how about one more new thing from us?
How about a princess carnival?
It'll surely be more exciting than our debut stage.
That might be good. Ah, but.
Do I really suit being a princess?
Subaru-chan!
It suits you perfectly.
Yeah, it suits you.
Th-thank you.
Wait, just now...
Welcome back, both of you.
Huh? What happened?
We met Tsumugi-san on the rooftop.
She shared her precious feelings with us!
This theater.
The theater is a precious home to me.
That's why...
I want to cherish this home forever.
I don't know what I can do.
But I want to protect it.
Tsumugi-chan, saying such things...
Yes.
Me too.
I'll do my best too.
Because this is also my precious Tokyo home.
That's right.
It's all of our home.
One big family~.
It's our home, right?
Spending every day together.
Even when we go far away, we can always return.
Let's make it that kind of warm home.
Yeah.
Oh, that's right.
What's wrong?
I just thought of something.
A beautiful idea to hype up the opening show with wonderhoi!
What it is?
Matsuri and the others are princesses.
Speaking of a princess's home...
It's a castle.
To welcome our dear patrons who gather at our castle.
The princess will take the guests' hands.
And invite them into the castle.
Me...that's not it.
So they can fully enjoy their time with the princess.
Thanks to Matsuri's inspiration.
It's the debut of a new stage.
I've practiced perfectly.
But I'm still nervous...
Tomorrow we be even more nervous.
But...
Tomorrow's stage will surely...
Be something we can all connect through.
Tsumugi's stage.
You've given me courage.
Yeah.
Let's go.
Clad in my current sparkle
I perform and wish for tomorrow's beacon of hope
I wish...
I sing...
Kaori.
It's fluffy, just like Kaori's wings.
They passed the baton to me.
Yeah.
Just like you said back then.
I'll sing along with everyone too.
I'll keep connecting it...
Us, clap clap clap-
We sang happily.
Ah, rock is definitely the way to go.
Ayumu's dancing looks pretty good too, right?
Yeeeah.
Huh? Yeeeah?
Dancing aside.
Can you all keep up with my singing?
It feels kinda disjointed.
The cohesion of the song...
I wasn't really paying attention.
I was singing comfortably though.
No, that's not it.
It's because I'm bad at it.
Maybe I'm holding everyone back, sorry.
It's not really that either.
I'll work even harder!
If not, then I will too.
I need to work on my singing a bit more too.
I see.
Then maybe I should hold Ayu-ayu back to balance things out.
Huh?
Lessons for Team SEVENS ?
Yes, everyone's worried they're not cohesive because of their singing.
If we could get advice from fellow idols' perspectives
I thought there might be some new discoveries.
Huh? Kaori?
Yes, she said she'd teach us singing.
Wow.
Looks like the Producer asked her.
Yay yay.
If we learn from Kaori.
Top singer gang gang gang!
For now, let's practice until Kaori comes.
Okay~.
Ah~ ah~ ah~ ah~ ah~.
Sanbowasanbo, Wasanbon.
All together now, Wasanbon.
Vocal practice lalala
I want to sing better.
One two three four wasanbon.
A i u e o ka ki ku ke ko.
You and me wasanbon.
Sa shi su se so ta chi tsu te to.
My Japanese sweets wasanbon.
Na ni nu ne no ha hi fu he ho.
Sanbo wasanbo wasanbon.
Ma mi mu me mo momomomo.
Kaori-san?
Ah, Kaori-san.
Good work today.
Good work.
Let's go...
La-lu-li-la, our hearts will surely be so much
more than connected if we sing
We just become as one beyond our dreams and hopes
La-lu-li-la, I won't let go of the brilliance
that you gave to me
No matter where we may be, you and I are connected
As I thought, we did it clap clap clap!
Yeah! Somehow this feels like our most cohesive performance yet.
Right.
That's thanks to Kaori-san's accompaniment.
Kaori-san!
Thank you!
No no, it's not really my accompaniment.
Everyone was wonderful even before I joined.
Really?
Weren't we just practicing separately?
No.
I was drawn in.
It looked so dazzling.
Surely that must be.
Because everyone has their own dreams.
And skies they want to soar toward.
You know, when I decided to become an idol...
I took one step away from my old life.
If I hadn't met Producer and everyone else,
I'm sure I never could have taken that step.
So I could feel what everyone wanted to do.
The appearance you're are trying to express
looked so beautiful.
I also want to sing songs.
Spread my wings together with everyone.
And soar freely.
While feeling grateful to be in such a place, I want to sing.
Somehow it feels like when I saw the field concert.
Warm and...
Unconsciously drawn in.
My heart was moved!
To think that we was thought of in that way...
We were flying through the sky, weren't we!
Both energy and courage came pouring out of us.
It gave us confidence, didn't it.
Yeah.
Let's each aim to be number one in our own way.
Yes! Let's all be number one together!
But are we really gonna be okay?
We'll be fine.
As long as each of us shines brightly.
Our colors will mix together.
And become our shared color.
I see.
Come to think of it, Producer too.
You really seemed to be spreading your wings freely.
Yeah! in the endlessly vast sky.
Yeah! I'm grateful to Kaori, Tsumugi, and everyone!
Shall we continue then?
Let's flap our wings with all our might!
Whoa!
Tsumugi-chan.
Kaori.
The audience.
And everyone who connected with us.
We'll do our best too!
With each of our own radiance.
Let's keep this live going till the end.
Till tomorrow.
And far beyond that.
Let's keep connecting!
Thank you for...
Creating countless live shows
We will now begin here
Morning! I jump up to my feet in a flash and say "good morning!"
Hey, look at the blue sky, it gives a hint of a wonderful meeting
Calling! A message from my members reads "Let's do our best!"
Throbbing and excited, the opening bell begins to ring
Staying up late We created this together
It's our handmade "Budokan" With a rainbow sign
Calling out everyone. Now, come on
Let's sing together!
Thank you for...
Welcome to our stage
This passion is unstoppable!
Resound calls
Even though it's small, with devotion and ingenuity, we'll make a great performance!
Burst into sweat,
bloom into smiles
Thank you for
this sparkling encounter
