Love Live! Sunshine!! (2016–2017): Season 1, Episode 13 - Sunshine!! - full transcript

As the girls keep practicing for the regional qualifiers, some of Chika's friends, having seen everyone's efforts, decide they want to become idols and help the school. Season finale.

Last time, on...

Love Live! Sunshine!!

Aqours!

We managed to break through
Love Live's qualifying round...

Zero.

Tokyo?!

...and headed to Tokyo to find out
how µ's saved their school.

Yeah. What was great about μ's was that

they ran straight through
an empty place, a place with nothing.

To realize their dreams...

And now we're going to compete
in Love Love's regional qualifiers.

Nice to meet you! We're Uranohoshi
Girls' High School's school idols,

Aqours!

We've got something we'd like
to share with everyone today.

And that is...

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

"If you need us, we'll be
on the roof, zura. -Kunikida"

1, 2, 3, 4! 1, 2, 3, 4!
Speed up the move there a little.

Okay!

And Yoshiko-chan--

Yohane!

Speed up just a tiny bit.

Affirmative! I'll use
my teleportation technique!

Okay! Let's take a break.

It's way too hot, zura!

Another dog day of summer...

All right! You promised
you'd stay well-hydrated!

Thanks!

Zura!

Lovely weather today!

You don't need a break?

If you stay in the sun,
you're going to tire out.

But Kanan was born shining!

I kept saying you shouldn't wear black...

Black is part of a fallen angel's identity...
I can't live without it...

Well, you look like you're about to die...

Chika-chan!

--Got it!
--Nice catch!

Have a drink.

Thanks!

I like summer. Things
really start to heat up!

Me too!

All right! Let's get back to it!

--Wrong!
--What?!

Overworking ourselves is against the rules!

Set by Kanan! We've got to
look out for everyone, right?

Oh, okay. The hottest part
of the day is coming up, huh?

The regional qualifiers are soon,
so I understand the urgency,

but taking a break is a part of training.

That's my sis!

But before that,
I need you all to take out 100 yen.

It has arrived. Today's ultimate Ragnarok...

Heheh... heheh...
I can see the future... I can see time!

Okay, here we go!

Rock, paper...

Why do I always lose?

That'll be 1,158 yen.

Who got the expensive ice cream?!

Zura...

Yoha...

Um, none of the air is reaching us...

I wish we had air conditioning
in the classrooms!

They wouldn't bother installing them
in a school that might get combined.

You're right.

Oh yeah, what's up with the applicants
for the school open house?

Mind your manners, Mari!

Right now...

Right now...

Right now...

Right now!

Zero!

Is this school really that boring?

People should come. Even just a few...

Huh?

Mu-chan! What are you guys doing?

We came up to the library
to return some books.

Are you guys practicing today, too?!

Yeah, the regional prelims are coming up!

But it's so hot!

Well yeah, but we practice
every day, so we're used to it.

Every day?

It's summer vacation...

And you've been practicing every day?

Yep!

It's about time to start again.

Oh, yeah! Seeya later!

Good luck!

They've been practicing every day...

They're doing it to try to
keep the school going, huh?

Yeah...

But they're really sparkling!

They're brilliant!

Yeah!

Another day of hard practice!

But I feel like we're
getting better every day!

How's the song coming along?

Hanamaru and I are going
to iron out the lyrics,

and then Kanan will decide on the steps.

I hope we can make our
audience's hearts shine!

Anyway, for now let's relax a bit
so we'll be ready for tomorrow!

--Fallen!
--Again! With her clothes on! Mind your manners!

--Shiny!
--Again! With her clothes on! Mind your manners!

But it feels great!

Ah, there she is!

Chika!

Huh? Mu-chan? I thought you went home.

Yeah, but...

--We were like, kind of curious...
--Huh?

You guys have been practicing
for Love Live all of summer vacation, right?

We were wondering if
being a school idol is really that fun.

We thought we might become
school idols or something, too...

To save the school...

Actually, a lot of other people
are thinking, "Maybe there's

something more that I can do."

Is that so?

--Yeah.
--The school might be combined
and shut down, right?

At first, everyone thought
there was nothing we could do, but...

Everyone really likes this school.

That's why you're not
the only ones that want to save it,

and sparkle, and shine. We thought
there might be something we could do.

Chika-chan?

What do you think?

Let's do it! Everyone, together!

--Really?!
--Yeah!

Yay!

This is kind of exciting, huh?

I can't wait for Love Live!

The song?

Yeah! The dance might be impossible,

but I thought if they sung with us on stage,
they might make it in time.

Can they do it?

Yeah. We'll sing together,
and it'll go great!

Then we'll get famous,
and the school will get

a bunch of new applicants,
and it can stay open!

--But, Chika-chan--
--And right now...

...I want to turn the zero into a one!

When I was talking to
Mu-chan today, I thought about

why we had zero applicants for our school.

I mean, everyone here loves it.

They love the town, and they love the school.

That means this is a wonderful place, right?

But the fact that it's still zero means
that people don't understand that.

It's not that I don't care about Love Live,

I just want everyone to know
that this is a wonderful place.

I want to turn the zero into a one.

Yeah... Hmm?

Chi--Chika-chan...
Behind you... It's a-- It's a ghost!

Aah! Mom!

Mom? Sh--She's your...

That's right! I'm Chika Takami's mom!
You must be Riko!

Huh? Uh, hello! Nice to meet you.

Hello, nice to meet you
too. You're very pretty!

Oh, no... Well, maybe I am...

Wait, what are you doing here, Mom?
Aren't you supposed to be in Tokyo?

Yeah, but Shima told me
you were in the School Idols Club,

or something, and that
I should come see it...

Why'd she go and do that...?

Anyway, I've got important things
to discuss with Riko,

so give us some space, okay?

All right, all right. I'm going.

Ah, just one more thing.

What?

Are you going to give up this time?

No, I won't.

Your mom seems nice.

Huh? Really? Anyway,
let's focus on Love Live!

Okay!

Love Live! Sunshine!!

Dagyaaaah!!!

Dagyah?

This is the land of the coming holy war.

They're asking where we're supposed to meet.

Well, we came from over there, so...

Mu-chan and the others aren't here.

I'm pretty sure this is the place...

Chika!

Ah, there they are. Over here!

Sorry, we got a little lost!

Where's everyone else?

Oh yeah, about that. Actually...

Oh!

Oh well, it is summer vacation after all.

We kept telling them!

But they just wouldn't--

Huh?

Everyone ready?

Yeah!

Everyone's joining in!

Everyone...

You surprised?

Yeah! If we all sing together onstage,
it's really gonna sparkle!

And it'll show everyone
how great our school is!

I'm sorry!

Huh? Riko-chan?

Actually, I looked it up,
and there's a rule that says that

the only people that can sing
are the ones that applied beforehand.

Oh, no...

And they're not allowed
to be near the stage either...

I should have said something sooner.

It's okay, it's not like
we gave you a lot of warning!

All right then, we'll be giving you
stellar support from the audience!

We'll show them our Ura High spirit!

So let us hear a stellar song, okay?

To tell the truth, I still can't believe it.

Me neither, zura.

The fact that we're even here now...

It's like a dream, zura.

What are you guys talking
about all of sudden?

This, this is real. And real is righteous.

Thanks, guys.

Zura!

All right! All that's left
is to become school idols,

and fall upon the stage!

Yeah!

You understand the melancholy, zura.

Let's go! The fallen angel Yohane
and her little demons...

...descend upon Love Live!

I can't believe this is happening
to us now, as third-years.

I know. It's thanks to
a certain someone being so persistent.

Yeah. Thanks, Mari.

I should be thanking you.

I became a school idol because of you two,

and was able to get here
because you kept waiting for me.

Let's take back what we left behind.

Of course!

It's weird... When I moved
to Uchiura, I never thought that

something like this would be in store for me.

It's because of Chika-chan!

That's not all! It's because of Love Live,
and µ's, and school idols...

And because of you two!

A lot of things are going to come our way.

It won't all be happy.
There'll be a lot of difficult, hard things.

But I want to enjoy it.

I want to enjoy it all, with everyone,
and get through it together!

That's what it means to shine!

Yeah.

There are nine of us, after all!

There aren't just nine! Let's go!

We've got something we'd like
to share with everyone today.

And that is our school, and our town!

Aqours was born in Uchiura,
a town where the ocean is big

and the sun shines bright.

It's small, and there aren't many people,
but the sea is full of fish,

there's plenty of mandarin oranges,
and the people are really friendly!

There's a tiny little school in that town,

and all of its students are here today.

We started a School Idol Club there.

We saw µ's in Akihabara,
and we wanted to be like them.

We wanted to shine like them. But...

--Writing songs?!
--Writing songs?!

That's right! If you can't write a song,
you can't get into Love Live!

--That's a big barrier!
--That's a big barrier!

But that's when a songwriter,
Riko-chan, transferred to our school!

It's a miracle!

Sorry!

--What?!
--What?!

Riko-chan came from Tokyo,
and wasn't interested in school idols at first.

She had some rough times in Tokyo... But!

I want to shine!

Riko felt the same way. And then...

I, um, I'm not very athletic, zura, so...

I like school idols, but...
I'm pretty shy, so...

The fallen angel, Yohane, descends!

I seek a place to spread my wings!

Our numbers grew to six, and we sang a song,

with all the people from our town.

That's when we were invited
to an event in Tokyo.

It's the future, zura!

--There are so many people!
--The city of sin, Tokyo!

This is where we're singing!

Let's do our best!

But we ended up in last place.

The number of votes we got: zero.

Zero.

--Zero.
--Zero.

--Zero.
--Zero.

Zero...

The world of school idols is a tough one.

It wasn't that easy.

Are we giving up?

Chika-chan? Are we giving up?

It was frustrating! Really frustrating!

I was so frustrated!

It was zero! Of course that's frustrating!

That's when we found our goal.

From zero to one.

We didn't want to end it with a zero.

We'll just carry on.

We'll change that zero into a one!

That's what we decided!

And then, some new allies appeared!

I'm the Student Council
President, Dia Kurosawa!

You're joining the school idols, huh?

Hello everybody!

These three former school idols
joined hands again,

and we grew to nine members!

And so, we entered the Love Live qualifiers,

and passed with flying colors! But...

We still had zero applicants to our school...

That abhorrent zero...

Clung to us again.

Why is it zero?!

We thought about it a lot.

How can we move forward?

How can we change the zero into a one?

And we decided.

We decided...

That with our town...

And our school...

And our friends...

We would walk our own path...

Take whatever came our way...

And enjoy it all...

That's what it means... to shine.

To shine is to enjoy life.

To turn that day's zero into a one...

Okay, here we go!

One!

--Two!
--Three!

--Four!
--Five!

--Six!
--Seven!

--Eight!
--Nine!

Ten!

Let's shine with everything we've got!

From zero, to one!

Aqours!

Sunshine!!

Let's become light,
I want to shine on the future

This gleam wells up from
the bottom of my heart

Even when the dreams I had made me cry

They came true, because I didn't give up

We all suffered in order
to make it here, right?

We're just getting started,
I won't falter anymore

Hold your aspirations close,
on to the next task!

There'll be a new world
just for us (I know it)

We say "aye aye"!!

The ship's leaving,
let's set sail for the future

The blue sky is smiling
(What do you wanna do?)

Let's become light,
I want to shine on the future

This gleam wells up from the bottom of my heart,
and I see more of the sights ahead

Come on everyone! Let's shine together!

Let's become light,
I want to shine on the future

I won't falter anymore

The ship's leaving,
let's set sail for the future

The blue sky is smiling
(What do you wanna do?)

Let's become light,
I want to shine on the future

This gleam wells up from the bottom of my heart,
and I see more of the sights ahead

Ah! Hold up your tickets
to the future we've earned...!

What exactly did we make out of the zero?

We chased something intangible,
got lost, got scared, cried...

We wanted to escape that zero.

And where there should have been nothing,

a light kept shining inside us.

And our belief that all nine of us
could do something special

was fed by that shining light.

That was what we came from.
What Aqours came from.

We're going to make our story come true!

With this shining light!

Is your heart...

Shining?!
