Love Live! Sunshine!! (2016–2017): Season 1, Episode 11 - Aye-aye, My Friend - full transcript

After Riko heads off for Tokyo for her recital, the others ask You to take her place alongside Chika in their dance routine. Riko performs her recital while Aquors perform at the preliminaries, both managing to perform well.

Do your best.

You too.

Riko-chan, give it your Rubesty!

You can't let Tokyo beat you!

It's about time for you to go.

Okay.

Ciao, Riko!

Take care!

Kick some butt, zura!

Riko-chan...

Next time, on the next stage,
let's all sing together!

Of course!

All right, back to practice.

Okay, now we have to get past the qualifiers!

I'm getting super pumped up!

Right, Chika-chan?

Chika-chan...

Chasing down the path
of a dream I've never seen

Shining Road

This feeling of being off to the races

I searched for you energetically,
straight and true

No way we can wait one second,
let's leap out there

The courage we have in us is clamoring

The everyday world takes new doors

(More) And hides them

(Let's go!) I want to open them all

Come on, let's do it together!

I want to start it! My story!
(Here, now's the time)

Blue skies are waiting

Hug that dream tight, and Jumping Heart

Just with that, I can move on to tomorrow,
youth full speed ahead?!

From when it began (Sunshine Story)

Cherish that thrill in our hearts always

We'll go out to catch our dreams

Not knowing what might happen
is part of the fun

It's time for special training!

"SPECIAL TRAINING!"

Again?

You really like that stuff, zura.

This is St. Snow!

They took first in the Hokkaido qualifiers!

Huh, so this the group you guys met in Tokyo!

They're doing great!

I know how you feel,

but what's important to us now
is the upcoming qualifiers.

Why don't we focus on that first?

That's quite a responsible thing
to say, coming from you.

Well thanks to someone,
I learned a thing or two.

And on that note...

Why are we doing this?!

Less complaining, more polishing!

But the bottom is all wet!

Zura!

Is this going to work as special training?

Dia just forgot that
she had to get the pool cleaned!

You're the one who forgot!

I told you! Once summer starts,
you need to do something

about getting the pool cleaned!

Well, I am doing something!

Oh, yes! "Something"!

Is it really okay for those two to be
Student Council President and Director?

I've got my doubts, too.

Well yeah, but we all made a promise.

We said we'd help her out
with her Presidential duties.

--That's right! We've all
got to pitch in and polish!
--Mmm-hmm, Mmm-hmm!

Aye aye!

Deck brushes were made
for polishing a ship's deck!

Which means we need these! Aaah!

--Ouch...
--What's with that outfit?!

This is no time to mess around!

Seriously, how long is this going to take?

We really cleaned it up!

Squeaky clean, zura!

See what I mean? There's nothing we can't do!

What?!

Hey, why don't we try
doing dance practice here?

Oh yeah, that sounds like fun!

You better not slip and hurt yourself.

We cleaned it up, it'll be fine!

Okay everyone, get in position!

Hmm... Huh?

Oh yeah. Riko-chan isn't here.

Without her it might make
our formation look a little off.

Should we change it, zura?

Or we should we get someone
to fill in for her?

Even if we could find a stand-in...

Yeah.

Huh, huh? Me?!

One, two, three, four,
five, six seven, eight.

--Oops!
--One, two...

Not again...

This is the tenth time.

I thought you'd fit right in here, You-chan.

It's my fault. I'm late
on the same part every time.

Aah, no! I can't adjust my strides to yours.

You just have to keep practicing
until it becomes reflex.

Let's keep at it.

Okay, here we go. One, two,
three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

--One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

--Oh, sorry!
--One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

No, I went too early.

Sorry, Chika-chan.

Woo! I've come back to life!

Mandarin orange is delicious!

Little demons! Lend me your strength!

Lord of Darkness,
send your power to my very hand!

You got Prize D!

D... Darkness...

Wow, those two are still practicing!

Sorry!

No, it was my fault.

I just memorized everything
based on Riko's stride, so...

Let's try again!

Okay!

Here we go!

--Zura!
--Roger!

This time try doing it the same way
you practiced with Riko-chan.

Huh? But--

It's okay! Let's go!

Ready?

One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four,
five, six, seven, eight.

Ooh, a heavenly match!

You-chan!

This'll work, huh?

Yea--yeah! You really nailed it! Awesome!

Hi, Chika-chan? You busy? That's right!

I just got to the studio in Tokyo,
so I thought I'd let you know.

Yeah, it's almost a waste
all by myself though.

Hang on a sec! I'm gonna
pass the phone around. Hanamaru-chan!

Oh! Uh, uh... Greetings!

Hello! Hanamaru-chan?

It's the future, zura!

Why are you so shocked?

--Huh? Yoshiko-chan?
--You have to know what a smartphone is...

I, Yohane, am busy falling from grace!

I will pass you on to another little demon!

Hello?

Why are you so nervous? It's Riko-chan!

I get nervous on the phone, zura.
Plus it's from Tokyo!

Does that matter? Okay, You-chan!

--Huh?
--Do you have anything to say to Riko-chan?

Yeah...

Oh, sorry! My battery is dying!

What do you mean, "again"?
Well, I guess it's not the first time.

All right, I'm hanging up.
Say hello to everyone else for me.

Okay!

She sounded happy. That's good.

All right, You-chan!

How about a few more run-throughs?

Yeah, okay!

You were trying to take on
all of this work by yourself, huh?

That's not it, this is just...

Oh well, I guess Kanan and I
will just have to help you out from now on!

What's that?

The application for the School Idol Club.
Chika brought it by before.

It was just Chika-chi and You at first.

Does that surprise you?

I've totally been thinking it was
just Chika-chi and Riko at the beginning.

I guess it kind of seems that way,
looking at how things are now.

"You Watanabe"

Yeah...

This is for the best...

--Oooh! These might give
Kanan some competition!

--Hi-yah... Huh?
--Oooh! These might give Kanan some competition!

Ouch!

Ma--Mari-chan?!

Love Live! Sunshine!!

With Chika-chan?

Yeah! You were having
some trouble, weren't you?

Oh, uh... It's okay.

We practiced more later
and it went pretty well.

I'm not talking about the dance...

Huh?

Riko took Chika-chi from you
and now little flames of jealousy!

...Are rising up inside you, aren't they?!

Jealousy? No way... I wouldn't...

Just be real with me!

That's what we're here for.

--Mari-chan...
--Just talk to me.

You can't talk to Chika-chi or Riko, right?

Come on.

For a long time now, I've been
thinking about how I've wanted

to do something with Chika-chan.

Before I knew it, we were in middle school...

Oh, you're joining the Swimming Club?

What about you?

I'm...

So when Chika-chan said she
wanted to be school idols together,

I was really happy.

I thought we could
finally do something together.

But Riko-chan joined right up,
and the two of them started making songs...

And all of a sudden,
everyone else had joined.

And that's when I thought...

...maybe Chika-chan didn't want it
to be just the two of us.

What? Why?

I mean, that was fine with me.

But people always tell me
how easily I pick things up,

so I thought that if I was around
it might be hard for her.

--Ha!
--Ouch!

What do you think you're doing,
just assuming all that stuff?

But...

Ooga-booga-booga-booga!

You really like Chika-chan, don't you?

Then you just need to be
totally honest with her.

Huh?

I wasn't honest with my best friends,
and wasted two years.

I know what I'm talking about!

Be totally honest...

Good morning!

Oh! You-chan! Check this out! Look!

Oh, how cute! What is it?

They're gifts for everyone! From Riko-chan!

--Ta-da!
--Zura!
--Wow...

Nice, right?

Riko-chan said she'll be
wearing one when she performs.

There's one for you, too! There you go!

Th--Thanks...

It's time to start our special training!

Okay!

Hurry up and change, okay!

Chika-chan!

Hmm?

Let's do our best.

Yeah!

I couldn't say anything...

Even if I'm being honest,
I don't know what to say.

Chika-chan! Who do you
care about more, me or Riko-chan?!

Stop messing around!

...No, that's not it.

Chika-chan... You don't
really like me, do you?

Huh?

That's not it either!!!

Then it's...

I, You Watanabe, am full steam ahead
for you, Chika-chan! Aye aye!

Aaahhh! What am I thinking?!

Hello?

No, it's fine. Is something up?

Yeah. I heard you were
taking my spot for the song.

Sorry, I'm being kind of selfish.

No, not at all.

Don't worry about me.
Just do whatever's easiest for you two.

But... I already...

Don't force yourself to adjust.

You have your own unique way of moving.

I dunno...

I'm sure Chika-chan thinks so too.

I doubt it...

Huh?

I think you're the best one
to be by Chika's side. After all...

...she looks so happy when she's with you.

And she always says
she's doing her best for you.

So that's how you see it.

Chika-chan was talking about it before.

Huh?

Okay. See ya.

Chika-chan...

You-chan!

You-chan!

Chika-chan! What are you...

I thought we could practice!

--Practice?
--Yeah!

I thought about it more,

and I think you should
use your own steps in the dance!

You don't have to adjust!
We'll just start over from the beginning!

Just the two of us!

You-chan!

You see, Chika-chan...
She was talking about it before.

She always turned down your invitations,
and was worried about it.

That's why she was determined
to be a school idol with you!

She was determined to
see it through with you!

You-chan...

You're covered in sweat. What happened?

There aren't any more buses,
and my sister said she was busy...

You seem like you've been
kind of concerned lately,

so I couldn't just sit around doing nothing.

I'm such an idiot.

Stupid You!

Stupid You?

Aah, we're gonna get all dirty!

--Don't worry about it!
--We'll catch a cold!

--Don't worry about it!
--This is embarrassing!

--Don't worry about it!
--What's wrong? Why are you crying?

Don't worry about it!

It's almost time...

All right, here we go!

For Love Live! For our first big step!

Let's shine with everything we've got!

Aqours!

Sunshine!!

I think I get it now.

I think I get why Chika-chan
wanted to be a school idol.

Why she had to be a school idol.

Yeah. For Chika, shining isn't about herself,

it's about joining hands with others
and shining all together.

With me and you, and everyone else,
we shined much brighter

than anyone could by themselves.

And that spread to our school,
and the people listening to us.

And it connected us.

That is what Chika-chan wanted to do.

To discover that shining feeling
in being a school idol.

Feelings, become one!
(The moment our feelings are one)

I've been waiting for this moment

Before you know it, our hearts will overlap

Our hearts that stoutly call for the future

We'll go forward hand in trembling hand

After our near miss,
we turned around at the same time

See? We really felt the same way all along

By grabbing hold of something
(There are all sorts of dreams)

We won't give up on something else (Right?)

Feelings, become one!

Wherever we are, we believe
in the same future

We steadily make our way outside,
searching for something more

When you give things a try,
you often find unexpected happiness

As we struggle, as we get laughed at

We won't give in or give up!
Though we may cry a bit!

But that's fine,
because our tomorrow's coming into view

Let's not tell our dreams in words;
let's tell them in song

Because I think a song
will convey how we feel right now

Putting dreams into words
lets us put them into songs

This growing feeling
is a series of favorite melodies

It's time to stop running away
and move on to someplace new

Singing my song for my dream!

Next time: "It's Time to Fly."
