Love Live! Sunshine!! (2016–2017): Season 1, Episode 9 - Young Dreamer - full transcript

Kanan wanted to give up being a "School idol", however, because of motivation from Chika, she was able to reconcile with Mari and the two finally manage to make up with each other.

Huh?

I think... I'm going to
quit being a school idol.

Why?

Are you still hung up on that?

We couldn't sing at Tokyo, it's no big deal.

Mari, you have a chance
to study abroad, don't you?

You should go.

Why? Quit joking around.

I told you before, I decided
not to go. Say something, Dia.

Dia...

Dia agrees with me.
There's no point in continuing.

Kanan! Dia!

Come on, it's over.

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

The summer festival?

There's going to be food stalls, zura...

Is this some remnant? A small trace remains.

What'll we do? She completely reset
after we got back from Tokyo.

Leave her alone, zura.

So, Shiitake is really out for a walk, right?

Chika-chan, what are we
going to do for the summer festival?

Yeah... we gotta decide.

Numazu's fireworks show
is the biggest event around here.

We got an offer from them, right?

That's the best way
to get our name out there, zura.

But that doesn't leave us
a lot of time to practice.

I feel like we should
focus on practicing right now.

What about you, Chika-chan?

I think we should do it!

--All right!
--Chika-chan!

Let's show 'em our very best.

And if that's not enough, we'll try harder.

I think we just have to
keep doing that, over and over!

--Aye aye! I agree!

--Roger!
--Aye aye! I agree!

Thanks!

--I can't wait for the festival!
--Chika-chan's changed, huh?

Totally!

--Yeah.
--A festival of fallen angels!

Hey, get back here!
Mega-Furious Demonmaru!

Hmm?

Keep at it.

You were a school idol... weren't you?

You had to ask...

For a little bit.

What's wrong?

I just wonder why Kanan-chan
gave up on being a school idol.

Dia explained it, didn't she?

It was because they
couldn't sing at the event in Tokyo.

But I don't think
she's the type to quit from that.

Really?

Yeah. We always used to
play together when we were little.

Don't be scared, Chika!

If you back down now, you'll regret it!

You can do it, for sure!

Come on!

So that's how it was.

She doesn't really seem that way, though...

Oh! Sorry.

Could it be?! The entire
lineage is possessed!

If I just knew a bit more about
the time when she was a school idol...

You didn't know about it
at all until you asked, huh?

Ruby-chan, did you hear anything from Dia?

Or maybe pick up on something?

You've been living with her forever.

You must have heard something!

Uh... Mmm... Mmp!

Oh, she ran away!

All right!

Stop that, zura.

Oh... Okay.

Really?

All I heard was that their show
in Tokyo didn't go well.

After that she didn't really
talk about school idol stuff.

But...

But?!

I am not running away.

So don't say that
Kanan is running away either.

That's what she said.

They weren't running away...

Okay!

I'm still sleepy, zura.

So she gets up this early every day...

Uh, she's sure to notice
if all of us follow her.

But everyone said they wanted to come.

Wow, she's pretty fast.

How long is she gonna run for?

She's already run pretty far.

--I can't go on, zura!
--Hanamaru-chan!

She looks like she's enjoying it, though.

Yeah...

How beautiful...

So, you turned in
your notice of return to school.

Yeah...

Have you finally given up on running away?

Make no mistake. The reason
I took time off from school

was because of my dad's injury.
And when I come back

I'm not going to join the school idols.

If you fail, you move forward
with a smile on your face.

That's the Kanan I know.
You hang in there till you succeed.

We've got less than a year till graduation.

That's enough. And this time,
we've got new members.

Just leave it to them, then.

Kanan...

Why did you come back?

I didn't want you to.

Kanan...

You're still so stubborn--

Stop it.

I don't want to see you again.

How mean...

Poor Mari, zura...

Something must have happened.

Yeah.

You've given up on running away...

Huh?

Oh, nothing!

So Kanan-chan is...?

Yep! She's coming back
to school, starting today.

And what about Mari?

I'm not still not sure...

Kanan.

A uniform!

No!!

Is this... a school idol's...?

Let go! I said let go of me!

I'm not letting go until you say yes!

Stop being so stubborn!

You can't stay negative
just because of one little failure!

Shut up! Who's the stubborn one?
That was two years ago!

We can't go back to being school idols now!

--We're third-years!
--Stop it, you two! Everyone is looking at you!

--Stop it, you two! Everyone
is looking at you!

You think so, too, right Dia?

Stop! It doesn't matter
how persistent you are,

Kanan is never going back
to being a school idol!

Why? Are you going to
keep carrying that failure with you?

Chika-chi and the others
aren't giving up! Why are you?

I'm not Chika!

Chika-chan?

Don't you have a lot of other things to do?

Chika...

Cut it out...

Now!!

Something happened and
you've been hiding it for a long,

long, long time, but now
you need to just spit it out!

It's none of your busin--

Yes it is!

What? But--

You too! And Mari!

All three of you,
come to our club room after school!

Wait... but...

Got it?

Okay.

Chika-chan is amazing...

Talking that way to third-years!

We couldn't sing at the
event in Tokyo, got it?

Dia already told me about that.

It just doesn't seem like
you'd give up because of it.

Yeah, exactly! Chika-chi is right!

I've said it over and over.

There must be more to it.

Right?

No, there isn't.
It's like I just said, I couldn't sing.

You're making me mad...

I know exactly how you feel!
She's so totally annoying!

You're just getting annoyed all by yourself.

But, weren't you dancing
at Benten Island the other day...

Zura!

Ooh, she's turning red!

Shut up!

You miss it, don't you?

Shut up! I don't miss it!

I just didn't want to do it anymore.

There's no way...

No way I'd become a school idol again.

Jeez...

Dia.

You know something, don't you?

Huh? No, I don't...

So why did you take Kanan's side just now?

Well... umm...

--Yoshiko-chan!
--Roger!

It's Yohane!

Dia...

She sure is your sister, zura!

It was on purpose?

That's right. It wasn't that
Kanan couldn't sing at the event.

She didn't sing on purpose.

Why?

Could it be, a dark cur--

It was for you.

For me?

Don't you remember?

You were injured that day, right?

Are you okay?

Fine!

Kanan, let's do it!

Kanan?

But... I never said a word
about wanting her to do that.

What do you think would have
happened if we went on?

It could have easily been
a lot worse than just an injury.

But...

So that's what she meant
when she said she didn't run away.

But what happened after that?

Yeah, you could have continued
after your injury healed.

That's right. We could have
got ready for the fireworks show,

made a new song, perfected our
dances and costumes...

but...

We were worried.
Every time transferring schools

or studying abroad came up,
you kept turning it down, right?

Of course I did!

At this rate, Mari is going to
let all these opportunities

go to waste, and it'll be our fault.
That's what Kanan thought.

That's when...

Are you sure you don't want to?

Your parents and the school
are very much in favor of it.

If you graduate over there,
getting in to college will be easy.

I'll pass. I'm a school idol now.

We're going to save the school.

Really...

That's why...

Where are you going?

I'm going to slug her!

She never said one word to me about that!

Stop it! Kanan has always
been watching out for you.

How you fit in...

How you feel...

And your future.

She cares about it more than anyone.

I don't care about that!
Why didn't she tell me?

She did. You just didn't notice.

She did...

Huh?

Even if we're apart...

I won't forget about you.

Kanan!

You idiot...

What?

It's time we talked about this.

Why didn't you say something?

You should tell me what you're thinking.

Because I'm looking out for you,
like you are for me.

I don't care about my future right now.

Studying abroad? I wasn't interested at all.

Why would I be? You couldn't sing!

I couldn't just let that go!

I... I care about you.
Don't take that lightly!

If that's true...
If that's true then just say so!

Don't make it about
winning and losing, just say it!

You're right.

That's why...

If--If they find us, we'll be in trouble!

Don't worry!

Are you...?

--Hu--Hug...
--Huh?

Hug.

Give me a hug.

You really like those two, don't you?

Well, you're going to
have to take care of them now.

They're actually pretty sensitive.

Then I guess I'll need you to be around, too.

Huh? I'm the school council president.
I'm much too busy...

Don't worry about that.

There's Mari and Kanan, plus six more of us.

Ruby...

My dear sister! Welcome to Aqours!

Even though I'm always with you

I can't fully express my feelings,
and my heart loses its way

Let's forget the tears

And try singing together instead

Words alone aren't enough

Even words aren't enough,
so we never quite connected

The fact that we drifted apart

Has always worried me, it's made me sad

I want you to understand me

And I'm sure I hurt you
because I can't stop feeling that way

Still, I just can't give up

And right now I'm not
going to hide my selfishness

So let's join forces and
swim the sea of dreams, the sea of today!

No one knows what the future holds

But I'm sure there's more fun in store

Being with my friends
lets me overcome anything

Things are just getting started,
so let's work hard

No one knows what the future holds

But I really want to make it fun

Being with my friends
makes me want to push my limits

I want keep growing,
I'm still a novice dreamer

It's finally starting to feel
like we can become one

So let's start
by baring our hearts to each other

When we do that, I'm sure we'll see new light

Aqours...

What is it?

We named our group Aqours, too.

What? Really?

Could it really be a coincidence?

I thought about that, too.

So...

All of you, and me and Mari too,
I think we were tricked.

--I told you to forget that one!
--Come on!

--By a certain someone...
--Aqours?
