02x13 - Wish

[bunniefuu]

We found a credit card

from the victim's belongings. His name is

Gorou Amamiya.

I can't believe this happened

when we just came here

to sh**t a music video.

Ruby, if you're not up for tomorrow's

I'm fine.

I can do it.

Try and get some rest.

Akane is not back yet.

I'm sorry.

It's all because

I asked you to come with us.

Why are you apologizing?

It's not your fault.

No, it is my fault.

You didn't want to see

such a rotten grotesque thing, right?

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

You're always

trying to carry everything by yourself.

Is it all your fault? Is it your fault

if you can't protect everything?

That's not true.

I heard the police say

that the corpse was

probably a m*rder victim.

Then it's obviously the m*rder*r's fault.

Why do you have to feel

responsible for that? That's just wrong!

Is it?

Yes, it is!

But I anticipated this.

I thought

you might be able to find that corpse.

I fed you information on purpose

so that you'd find the corpse.

I thought I didn't care

if you found it or not.

And that it had nothing to do

with me anymore.

If anything, I thought it might be

more convenient if no one found it.

But the truth is,

I guess I've always

wanted it to be found.

Akane.

Thank you for finding it.

I see.

So that man was Aqua's

But I haven't done anything.

-It was a coincidence

-Even so.

I led you to find it.

I've always been using you.

To learn about my father,

to find the corpse,

and for many other things.

I'm sorry for all this time

Yeah, I know.

I understand it now.

I think I'm finally able to

put my feelings into words.

You're kind and you always try

to carry the burden by yourself.

So I wanted to support you

along with the guilt you're carrying.

But I know.

Now I can

Aqua

I can say goodbye properly.

You're better off without me, right?

It's hard being with me, right?

Huh?

I wanted to have

a proper talk with you during this trip.

-Because I know

-What should I do?

-I know we can end things on good terms.

-Stop.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to get upset.

Stop.

I didn't mean to cry.

On stage,

I'm usually able to

stop them.

I should've said this sooner.

My revenge is over

and the corpse has been found.

So this time,

let me be the one

to protect you.

AI IS FOREVER MY FAVE!!!

Doctor

You're in trouble. You're in trouble.

You took that from the corpse, didn't you?

You're not supposed to do that.

Who are you?

Did you have

a special relationship with that doctor?

If that's the case, I'd understand.

A kid like you would never understand.

Please leave me alone.

I'm in a really bad mood right now.

How scary.

But are you sure?

I know something you want to know.

Sounds like

you guys had a rough night, huh?

Today, we're mostly sh**ting outdoors,

but feel free to take a break

if you don't feel well.

Ruby, she's talking to you.

What?

Oh, right.

I'm fine.

I don't like

sh**ting music videos outside.

It's so cold,

and yet we have to sing and dance

in an outfit that's out of season.

Once, I had to run along Kujukuri Beach

in a swimsuit during winter

because they wanted to sh**t

a summer scene.

Another time, they made me run with a coat

and a scarf under a scorching summer sun.

Really?

Acting is all about

physical labor after all.

SIGH

What I want to know?

A long time ago,

a famous idol came here

and gave birth in secret.

And that deceased doctor

was her attending physician.

Everyone thought

the doctor had gone missing all this time,

but the day he went missing

was the same day the idol gave birth.

He went missing on such an important day.

Or maybe he disappeared

because it was an important day.

Suspicious, right?

But that's not all.

Apparently, there were suspicious men

lurking outside the hospital back then.

One looked like a college student

and the other was

probably in middle school.

One of them was identified

a few years later.

A college student

who stabbed Ai, the idol, in her own home.

A crazed fan.

He was her stalker.

And the other?

Huh?

You said there were two.

Who knows?

Isn't it your job to find that out?

Cut!

Towel! Get me a towel!

Warm me up.

I'm totally rooting for this girl.

Mem is cute too,

but I can sense that she's holding back.

It's k*lling her originality

and she won't stand out.

On the other hand, Arima is desperate

to show her charm to everyone.

She's making an effort to do something.

Whether that something works or not

is a gamble,

but you need to make that effort.

If you don't, you'll end up unnoticed.

-Kana Arima is making that effort.

-I knew this would happen!

She's cute.

I can see why

she's the center of this group.

I'm really looking forward to

doing the offline editing.

Ruby, you're up.

Okay.

Ruby Hoshino.

Her looks are by far the best,

but it's no fun filming her.

It's like she's being an idol by the book.

Like she's imitating someone.

There are two culprits.

Mama's future was taken away

at the young age of 20.

The doctor was m*rder*d

and left all alone

in such a dark place for 16 years.

The culprits took away two people

who meant the world to me

and one's still out there somewhere.

This is unforgivable.

I'll do whatever it takes

and find him for sure.

I'll find him and I'll definitely

I'll definitely k*ll him.

It's a wrap!

Good job, everyone!

Why don't you all go sightseeing

and enjoy yourselves?

We'll be on the plane

by noon tomorrow though.

We can't really enjoy ourselves then.

For now,

I just want to relax in the hot springs.

Me too.

When will you finish the music video?

Hmm, I'm planning to complete

"STAR☆T" as soon as possible.

First, I'll do the offline editing.

I need to do the cuts,

make a rough video, and get it checked.

Then, the online editing.

After color corrections and adding in

CG and VFX, it'll be ready for delivery.

It should be done by next month.

As for the second video,

can I spend more time on it?

That's fine, but why?

Well, you see

I may be a creator for business,

but sometimes I want to go back

to being just an artist.

WOMEN'S BATH

Too many things

have happened on this trip.

It was strange and mysterious.

But it also feels like

everything is connected.

This means we're dating for real, right?

Not because of a television show,

but as a man and a woman.

Your face is red.

You should get out before you feel sick.

Yeah, I might be feeling a little dizzy.

I think I was thinking about

something important

But my head's all foggy and it feels like

none of it matters anymore.

Well, it's okay to feel that way now.

I heard that

you're starring in an upcoming movie.

Aren't you popular.

It's not like that.

They're only screening it

in a few cinemas.

Distribution has

nothing to do with the quality!

It's impressive enough, isn't it?

I'm jealous.

It's going to be

an important time for you.

Whether you can ride this wave or not

will determine your future.

And yet, you tagged along on this trip.

How long will you play

the reality show couple?

It's not a reality show anymore.

I-I think

I'm really starting to feel dizzy.

I should get out.

It can't be

Hey, Akane.

Why do you think Aqua became an actor?

He's been working at

the Director's place since he was little

and he's fixated on this industry.

You know the reason don't you, Akane?

I think there's someone he wants to meet

in show business.

He's trying to sell his name

to meet that person.

Something like that.

Do you know who it is?

Because I don't know

I guess I shouldn't tell Ruby

too much about this.

I want Aqua to forget about the incident.

Giving Ruby information

might stir up a hornet's nest.

It's probably

an actor he admires or something.

Aqua can be quite the fanboy sometimes.

I see.

It's getting late. We should sleep.

Yeah, you're right.

So this is the performing arts shrine.

Yup, Aratate Shrine.

I WANT TO BE AN ACTOR!

SUMIRE

There are lots of Ema

written by aspiring actors.

Hitting this wooden board with this mallet

has the same effect as praying.

Hey, let's all make a wish

while we're here.

Sounds good.

I wish we all become popular.

I hope none of my registered talents

cause any trouble

I wish to be a better actor.

I wish we'll be popular very soon.

I wish Aqua will

find the culprit

who k*lled Mama and the doctor soon.

Maybe their prayers were answered

or it was some divine guidance

but their music video

received a lot of attention.

"LOVE FOR REAL" GUEST STARS

It became a turning point

for the new B-Komachi's

huge rise in popularity.

Six months have gone by.

Ruby and I are second-years.

Akane and Arima are

in their third year of high school now.

PROPOSAL

THE 15 YEAR LIE (TENTATIVE)

This is the year

that really set our careers in motion.

Are you alive?

Didn't I tell you

to watch your step?

You m*rder*r
