Love Live! Sunshine!! (2016–2017): Season 1, Episode 7 - Tokyo - full transcript

With their video placing them in the top 100 school idol groups, Aqours are invited to perform at an event in Tokyo, prompting some concern from Dia. Upon arriving in Tokyo, the girls each check out the specialist shops before coming across the shrine that u's used to practice near, where they meet another pair of girls attending the event. Later that night, Riko tells Chika about her experiences at Otonokizaka and the expectations she was up against. The next morning, the girls hear about entries opening for the next Love Live before heading over to the event, where the two girls they met before, Seira and Ria Kazuno, are also competing as the unit Saint Snow.

Last time, on... Love Live! Sunshine!!

Combined and shut down?

Aqours started taking action
to keep the school alive.

There isn't really anything!

Trying to show the great things
about our town and school

became a real struggle...

Amount of effort is not
proportional to results!

Chika and everyone roused their spirits...

Maybe this is it...

The thing that's special
about this town and school...

That's it!

They took a big step
towards saving the school.

Our previous promo video has 50,000 views?

Really?

People are saying
the lanterns are really beautiful.

Our ranking, too...

"99th Place"

99th Place?!

Zura!

All right... All right, all right!

That's the ranking for
the whole country, right?

Out of over 5,000 school idol groups,
we're in the top 100, right?

It might just be a temporary boom,

but even so, it's pretty amazing!

We're first in improved ranking!

Wow, zura!

It's like, if we keep going like this,

we could even be the champions of Love Live!

Champions?

I don't think it's quite that easy.

I know, but it means it's
not impossible, right?

--Hmm? What's this?
--What is it, what is it?

To the members of Aqours...

The Tokyo School Idol Association...

--Tokyo?
--That's what it says.

Tokyo... are they talking about
that capital in the east?

Your description falls a bit flat.

Tokyo!

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

Tokyo?

Yeah.

They invited us to sing at an event.

A school idol event in Tokyo...

It's a proper event--lots of
last years' champions will be there.

Let's go!

Do we have enough money to get there?

I'll get an advance on my allowance!

That's what Chika-chan said.

In Tokyo...

So, we can't go?

What did Mari say?

If it's okay with everyone,
she'd give her permission as director.

Dia!

Does it bother you, then?
Me staying a school idol...

Ruby...

You decided to become
a school idol of your own will, right?

Yeah.

Then it doesn't matter
what anyone else thinks. Right?

But--

I'm sorry. I'm making things hard for you.

You don't have to worry about it. I just...

Just...?

Nothing. It's late, you should get to bed.

I thought you'd come.

What are you doing?

You know what it means to allow those
girls to go to Tokyo now, don't you?

You're free to stop them.

If you really try to stop them,
they might give up.

Don't you have hopes for them?

Hope for them overcoming what we could not.

You know well what will happen
if they don't succeed.

It might stick with them forever.

Maybe, but they can't just avoid it.

Not if they're serious
about being school idols,

and about saving the school.

You haven't changed since then, have you?

Tokyo top!

Tokyo skirt!

Tokyo shoes!

And... a Tokyo bag!

What in the world are you doing?

Isn't it cute?

{\a6}Heh heh heh... Oh no!

You don't have to get
all decked out just for Tokyo.

It might be okay for you.

But going from Uchiura
to Tokyo is a big deal!

Good morning!

What do you think?

Do I look right?

I'm ready for the treacherous
gorges of Shibuya, zura!

What's with that ridiculous outfit?

And Shibuya isn't treacherous at all!

It's obvious you two are total country girls!

You too.

What?!

We just ended up wearing our normal clothes.

I think that's cuter.

Really, zura?

Yeah. But you might want to
be careful with your "zuras."

Zura!

Ruby.

Be strong, okay?

What did she mean?

Ruby-chan!

If I start to say "zura," stop me, okay?

Okay.

They're late...

I, the fallen angel,
descend from the heavens above,

summoning my many little demons
from the afterlife to the city of sin!

Hey, what is that?

Shh, don't look at her!

She's really getting a lot of attention...

Heh, heh, heh.

--Yoshiko-chan...
--She's at it again.

Yoshiko-chan is totally
in fallen angel mode, zura!

You guys are late!

I'm not Yoshiko...

I'm Yohane!

I've got such a lovely stage here!

--My fallen angel character
has been waiting and waiting.

--Come on!
--And I'm letting her out, big time!

Riko-chan.

Yes?

They're not really used to Tokyo,
so look out for them, okay?

Okay.

Chika!

Oh, Mu-chan!

Good luck at the event!

This is from everyone in our class.

Wow, thanks!

Eat this, and show them
what Ura girls are made of!

Okay, I will!

Good bye!

Bye!

Which train is the next one?

Hmm, this one?

I can feel it...
the energy of the city of sin...

--This is delicious, zura!
--You're ruining the mood!

Thank you!

Okay, here we go!

It is said that demons run wild here...

The promised land of sorcery and sin, Tokyo.

Woah, look at that!

It's an ad for school idols, isn't it?!

Everyone will know we're from
the country if we make a big fuss.

You're right.

We gotta act like we're used to it.

{\a6}The fallen angel Yohane
has landed in Tokyo, city of sin!

Oh.

Oh my god, Harajuku is always
like this! It's totally crazy!

How cute...

--Chika-chan!
--This is Akihabara...

Tee-hee!

Huh?

It's the future, zura! The future, zu--

Hey, where is everyone?

Shiny!

There are so many different kinds of pins!

I've never seen this poster before!

How cute!

We're running out of time!

Huh? Where are Hanamaru and Ruby?

"Fallen Angel"
"Black Magic Shop"

Fallen Angel...

"Uniform Specialty Shop"
"Over 100 kinds of uniforms"

Uniforms... over 100 kinds!

All right everyone,
let's pray for success tomorrow,

and head over to the shrine!

Huh?

Yeah, we're in front of
a big building. Can you see us?

Oh, there you are!

Sorry!

Where are Yoshiko and You?

They both know the place.
They said they'll head there soon.

--When is soon?
--I dunno.

Hmph! Everyone is doing their own thing!

That's what happens... Hmm?

"New Fan Fiction!" "Young girl romance!"
"Chin-in-hand kisses!"

Chin... in hand...

Riko-chan!

It's nothing!

--What's nothing?
--No--Nothing!

I... I'm gonna go to the bathroom!

What?!

Ugh! We ran out of time!

I wanted to spend a while here
after coming all this way.

Wh--What? I told you, didn't I?

This is all stuff for our show!

Why are you dressed like that?

Come on, you said we were going to a shrine!

Does it look good on me?

I think you've got the salute wrong.

This is it.

These are the stairs
where μ's always practiced.

Yeah...

Shall we go up?

Okay.

All right, everyone! Here we go!

Hey!

Wait up!

μ's climbed these stairs...

Right here...

With their sights on Love Live!

not see you through ♪

Love Live! Sunshine!!

Hello.

He--Hello.

Chika-chan!

It can't be! Servants from the heavens?

Hang on! Are you guys from Aqours?

No way! Why do you...

She must have some kind of ESP...

Are we that famous?

We saw your promo video. It was great.

Thank you!

Are you by any chance
here for tomorrow's event?

--Yes.
--I see.

I look forward to it.

Good bye.

Woah!

Are all high school girls
from Tokyo this amazing?

Of course they are!

This is Tokyo! Tokyo!

That was a pretty song.

This is really relaxing, zura.

I'm glad you like it.

This is really fun!
It's just like a school trip!

The fallen angel, Yohane, has descended.

Oh my god, this is so cool!

You couldn't be any happier, zura!

Well you couldn't be any happier
with all the snacks you bought here!

Get down from there.

"Back to the Piyoko Manju"

I got them as gifts, but I
saved some for a late snack, zu...

--Huh?
--These aren't from the inn?

My Back to the Piyoko Manju!

Hanamaru-chan, if you
snack at night, you'll get fat!

Be quiet! I can't concentrate!

Whatever, zura! I'm gonna eat 'em, zura!

We should probably get the futons laid out.

Oh, woah, woah!

Hey! I just talked to the innkeeper... Huh?

Otonokizaka... is that μ's'?

Yeah, they said it's near here. Riko-chan!

Why don't we go take a look?

--Huh?
--All of us!

Huh?

I've always wanted to go!

The high school that μ's kept alive!

The school where they practiced!

I want to go too!

Me too!

Isn't Tokyo rough at night, zura?

Wh--What? Is it scary?

Yoshiko-chan is shaking, zura!

--Sorry, I'll pass.
--Huh?!

I'm going to go to sleep, you guys go on.

Riko-chan...

I guess we should go to bed.

You're right. We've got a show tomorrow.

Mmm, angel Stigma...

Can't sleep?

You too?

Yeah, I guess.

I'm sorry. I kind of ruined the mood.

It's okay. I'm sorry, too.

Otonokizaka has been famous
for music for a long time.

I don't know if it's because I was in

a national piano competition
when I was in middle school,

but there were big expectations
for me in high school.

I see.

It's not like I hate Otonokizaka.

It's just, I felt like I had to
live up to the expectations...

I practiced all the time.

But the competition didn't go very well.

I wonder what it feels like
when there are expectations for you.

Huh?

When we left Numazu,
everyone came to see us off, right?

I was really happy that they came,

but it was actually a little scary.

"I have to live up to
their expectations," I thought.

"I can't fail."

Chika-chan...

Sorry.

I was just rambling.

It's okay. Thanks.

Huh?

Let's get some sleep. For tomorrow.

Yeah.

Okay!

This is where I first saw them.
School idols...

μ's...

Chika-chan!

I thought you might be here!

You guys...

If you're going to practice, let us know!

You're not going to leave us behind, are you?

Let's offer prayers at the shrine
on the way back, zura!

Right!

Yeah!

Love... Live...

Love Live!

They're presenting this year's Love Live!

It's here already.

What'll you do?

We're entering, of course!

Just like μ's did!
Just like they saved their school!

All right, let's go!

We're going to shine
with everything we've got!

Aqours... Sunshine!

Ranking?

Yes. We've decided to base
the rank of the show's school idols

on the audience's votes.

So if you're near the top,
it's a chance to get famous quick!

I suppose so. Aqours,
you're on second. Knock 'em dead!

Second...

So we're one of the openers.

Oh well.

The other groups have all
been in the Love Live finals, after all.

Oh, zura...

Still, this is a great chance for us.
We've got to do our best!

Are you nervous?

Well, yeah...

Okay, salute with me then!

Aye aye, g'morning!

A-- Aye aye, g'morning.

Good job! It's a magic word
that gets rid of nervousness!

Ruby-chan...

I--I can't do it...

Ruby-chan...

Do your Rubesty, zura!

--The time has come to use the divine power
--It's no good, we're falling apart!

--of the fallen angel to pierce the heavens!
--Aqours, this way please!

Th--There are so many people.

I--It's okay!

Good luck.

You're school idols?

Oh? Didn't I mention it?

I'm Seira Kazuno.

Ria.

Saint Snow is about to
take the stage. Enjoy the show!

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!

"Isn't it frustrating?"

Next time, "Isn't it frustrating?"
