00:00Today is the release day of the limited edition CD.
00:04I need to hurry and pick it up!
00:07My name is Yamato Nakamura.
00:09I'm a high school senior who is a big fan of Lily, a character from the idol anime Tokimeki
00:15Youthful Idol.
00:17There are plenty of events related to idol activities, like voice actor live shows, and
00:22participating in all of them requires building up physical stamina.
00:27Should I run to the CD shop?
00:29It would save me train fare, too.
00:33Joining from the second period, she really gives off a delinquent vibe.
00:38She is Lina Aoki.
00:40Though she's a bit of an outsider with a punk appearance, she secretly has popularity among
00:45male students.
00:46She's so beautiful, and her cool profile is irresistible, to the extent that some have
00:52formed a fan club for her.
00:55Hey, what are you looking at, loser?
00:58Uh, no, um...
01:01Don't stare at me like that, I'll knock you out!
01:05I'm sorry!
01:06Scary, punks are scary!
01:09Introverts and extroverts really don't mix!
01:13I somehow knew she didn't like me, even though we're in the same class!
01:17Anyway, let's try to avoid getting involved with her as much as possible.
01:23After school that day, phew, I managed to get the CD!
01:27Hehe, the bonus lily is just too cute!
01:32Huh?
01:33Is that Lina walking towards me?
01:35Uh oh, if she sees me, who knows what she'll say?
01:40For now, I'll make myself small and try not to breathe.
01:43Meow.
01:44Meow?
01:45Uh, hey kitty, it's dangerous over there!
01:51Meow?
01:52Kitty!
01:53Seriously, why stop in the middle of the tracks?
01:57What should I do?
01:58At this rate...
01:59Hey, what the heck are you doing?
02:02Meow.
02:03Lina!
02:04If you stop in a place like this, you'll get run over!
02:07Come on, hurry up!
02:09Woah!
02:10Meow!
02:11Ouch!
02:12Ugh, that was close!
02:15Uh, my leg...
02:18Did she get injured?
02:20This is bad, the train is coming soon!
02:23What should I do?
02:24I have no choice but to do something!
02:27Lina!
02:28The four-eyed loser?
02:31Just grab onto me for now!
02:33Huh?
02:34Wait!
02:37Phew, safe.
02:39Why did you help me?
02:41Anyone would help in a situation like that, right?
02:44I mean, do you think there's an option to just leave someone like that?
02:48Well, that's...
02:50But you looked really cool.
02:53Unlike me, who was scared stiff, you went to help without hesitation.
02:57Even the cat seems happy.
03:00Meow.
03:01Ugh.
03:03Anyway, you can't move with that leg, right?
03:06Well, it hurts a bit.
03:08But if I stay put here for a while...
03:11Sorry about this.
03:13Woah!
03:14What are you doing?
03:17What do you mean?
03:18Since you can't walk, I'm carrying you, okay?
03:21I thought you were a puny little guy.
03:24But I lifted you up just now!
03:26Yeah, but I thought that was an emergency situation.
03:30Listen, being a nerd is a test of endurance.
03:34To fully support your favorite idol, you need stamina.
03:37Dancing for three to five hours at live events with all your might!
03:42Without that stamina, you can't fully engage in being a fan.
03:46Uh, sorry, speak English.
03:49It's English!
03:51Anyway, I'll take you home now.
03:54Thanks.
03:55Ugh.
03:56She can express gratitude properly.
03:59Huh.
04:00What's with that look?
04:02You think I'm not grateful or something?
04:04Meow.
04:05Meow.
04:06No, not at all.
04:08You're welcome.
04:09I'm just relieved you're okay.
04:12After that, I escorted her to her home.
04:15It seems Lina decided to rescue and adopt the cat she saved.
04:19She said,
04:20It's unmanly to half-heartedly throw away a life you saved.
04:23But I kept the retort about her not being a guy to myself.
04:28The next day, after such an event,
04:30Yamato!
04:32Whoa!
04:33You scared me!
04:34Lina!
04:35Don't suddenly hug me from behind like that!
04:39It's fine, this is normal.
04:41By the way, I want to thank you.
04:43You helped me.
04:45No need to worry about it.
04:47No, it doesn't sit well with me.
04:50So, let's go!
04:52Huh?
04:53Where?
04:54Karaoke!
04:56Skipping school today!
04:58What?
05:00Sing as much as you want, it's on me!
05:03I've skipped school for the first time!
05:06Um, isn't this a bad idea?
05:09Why?
05:10Because school...
05:13You don't always have to go to school, you know.
05:15Once you become a working adult,
05:17you won't be able to do things from your student days.
05:20Besides, life in a narrow sandbox is boring.
05:24I see.
05:26I'm not saying skipping is the right thing to do, though.
05:29Hmm...
05:30She unexpectedly has quite a firm perspective.
05:34Come on, sing!
05:36Anything is fine.
05:38Sing whatever you want, you don't need to worry about me.
05:41Then, I'll go with this!
05:43Love is magical lovely!
05:45The Lily version!
05:47Ah, Lily's songs are really great!
05:50Conflicts and struggles seeping through the overflowing 8th grade syndrome words!
05:56And with determined words shining through chorus!
05:59Lily, you're the best!
06:02Phew!
06:05Oops!
06:06I got carried away in dance because she said I could sing freely.
06:10Did I go too far?
06:12Uh, this is...
06:15What was that just now?
06:17That was so cool!
06:19Awesome!
06:22I thought you were just a frail nerd, but you're different.
06:25Whoa, being praised like this for the first time!
06:30I used to think you were just a gloomy, shy nerd.
06:33You've always been timid, lacking confidence, and it was kind of frustrating.
06:38But you know, that was just because I didn't know you.
06:41I was wrong to misunderstand and dislike you.
06:44Sorry.
06:45Lina!
06:47So, let's make up with another song!
06:50Another song?
06:52Is that okay?
06:53Really?
06:54I'm going to dance again!
06:56And as for me, I like your dance!
06:58Uh, okay!
07:01In this way, I showcased my dance and song as a response to the request.
07:06During that time, I passionately explained how precious my favorite idol is,
07:11how I want to spread the word about her, and how I want everyone to know about her.
07:16Despite my fervent display, she continued to watch over me with a gentle smile, without flinching.
07:22After that, she dragged me around for the entire day, playing to her heart's content.
07:28That was so much fun!
07:30Hey, you know, surprisingly, it was fun.
07:33Let's hang out again!
07:35I don't have many friends because of how I am, so let's get along!
07:39You're okay being seen with me!
07:44It's okay, because it's you!
07:46Well then, see ya!
07:48She was really a great person.
07:51I hope we can hang out together again.
07:54The next day.
07:56But why are they whispering?
07:58Maybe skipping school was a bad idea after all?
08:02Hey, Yamato!
08:03What?
08:05Is this, by any chance, you?
08:07Huh? What is this?
08:10It's a video from yesterday's karaoke!
08:12My face is hidden, but people who know can tell!
08:16Why is this posted?
08:19Hey!
08:20Weena!
08:22Oh, what's up, Yamato?
08:24You're pretty energetic this morning.
08:26Um, that, the video!
08:29Ah, that!
08:31You were saying you want to spread the word about your favorite and want people to know, right?
08:36I thought if you uploaded yourself singing on the internet, it would be great!
08:40You're good, and it'll convey the charm, right?
08:44It's the best way to spread the word about your favorite!
08:47Ah! It was a thousand percent good intentions!
08:51So, there's something I want to talk about.
08:53Come see me during lunch.
08:55A few hours later.
08:57What's this talk about?
08:59Why don't you post more videos like this?
09:02I saw you dancing and thought it looked fun!
09:05It's dazzling, and I want to be dazzling too!
09:08But doing dance videos alone is kind of challenging.
09:12So, I thought it would be cool to do it together with you!
09:16Ah!
09:17You can only do interesting things while you're a student with time!
09:21Besides, if the video goes viral, it's a chance for people to know about your favorite, right?
09:27Certainly! That makes sense, but...
09:30For that, I've been studying this favorite of yours!
09:34In that case, I'll lend you all the CDs and live DVDs!
09:38Getting greedy, huh?
09:40Anyway, if you're lending, it should be at your place.
09:43Huh?
09:44Next Sunday, let's meet at your house!
09:48Sunday.
09:49What's this? It's amazing!
09:53There are various girls, but this one is the cutest!
09:57Right? Did you also notice Lily's charm?
10:00Lily has this setting of being 8th grade syndrome, and she's a bit of an outcast.
10:06But there's a proper reason behind that!
10:08The background hidden behind that personality really resonates with the heart!
10:13The first single released, The Depths of the Heart are Deep and Abyssal,
10:17with its wailing-like singing shakes the hearts of fans!
10:23I did it again!
10:24Nerds tend to speak rapidly when it comes to their favorites!
10:31Wow!
10:33That's intense! Cool!
10:36Huh?
10:37Because of that love, you can dance so cool!
10:40Yamato, I want to seriously learn dancing from you!
10:44Sure!
10:45From that day on, Lina and I started practicing dance together,
10:49not just after school, but also during lunch breaks and short breaks.
10:53After a week of practice...
10:56Ugh! This is difficult! How do you move so sharp?
11:01Well, it's just a matter of practice.
11:04It's amazing and cool, Yamato!
11:08What's cool about it? You're doing something lame!
11:12It's darkness!
11:13Lately, you've only been hanging out with introverts! I seriously can't stand it!
11:19Shut up! I like being with him, so leave us alone!
11:23Come on, let's go, Yamato!
11:25Y-yeah...
11:26Maybe it's unnatural for Lina and me to be together...
11:30Maybe I'm causing trouble by being with her...
11:34What are you feeling down about?
11:36No...
11:37Don't worry about Yamida! I'm with you because I want to be!
11:42Come on, let's continue dancing! For now, practice!
11:46We continued practicing diligently, and finally, we were able to dance a satisfactory dance!
11:52When we posted that video on social media...
11:56We did it! It's going viral!
11:59Amazing!
12:00No, you're the amazing one! You're my savior!
12:04Savior?
12:06I was lonely, hated being alone, and everything felt incredibly dull.
12:11Every day was gray, but when I saw you dancing, overflowing with love for your favorite, and listened to the songs...
12:17The world colored itself on that day!
12:20Thanks for bringing color back to my world, Yamato!
12:23Lina...
12:24Come on, let's practice a new dance for the next video!
12:28After that, Lina and I continued to post videos.
12:31As we spent time together, liking the same things, dancing...
12:35Another precious favorite was added to me.
12:38That is Lina.
12:39The more time we spent together, the more I grew to like her.
12:45One day...
12:46Yamato, I got the live concert tickets you were talking about!
12:50Really? I didn't win any in the lottery! How did you get them?
12:55That's a secret! Anyway, let's memorize the songs for the event in a month!
13:00Okay! I'm looking forward to the live concert!
13:05Even though I had been thinking that way, since the day Lina told me she got the tickets...
13:10Her behavior became strange.
13:12She kept refusing to dance.
13:14I wonder what's going on.
13:16She was so enthusiastic about dancing.
13:19If I can't ask her directly, I'll have to investigate myself!
13:23With that in mind, I decided to ask around about Lina.
13:27I found out that she has been spending a lot of time with Iyamida lately.
13:32Are Iyamida and Lina good friends? When did they reconcile?
13:37I have to ask her directly again.
13:39I said I don't want to!
13:41Lina's voice!
13:44I got the tickets ready, so at least listen to what I have to say a bit!
13:49This and that are completely different!
13:52If that's the case, then forget about the tickets.
13:55Wasn't he happy, your beloved introverted guy?
13:59Well, yeah, but...
14:02Wait a minute!
14:04What do you want?
14:06What was that just now?
14:08What do you mean you got the tickets?
14:10Well, um...
14:12You were feeling down because you couldn't get the tickets.
14:16When I was troubled about how to help, this guy called me and offered a solution.
14:22So, he said he would give me the tickets if I let him do whatever he wanted until the live concert.
14:28That's the deal, so if you want these tickets, back off!
14:33Alright!
14:35Hey, what are you...
14:38If that's the case, I don't need these tickets!
14:41What?
14:42The thought behind Lina's actions makes me happy, but she is more important to me!
14:49Iyamida, if you hurt Lina any further, I won't forgive you!
14:53Even if I'm an introvert or a nerd, I can do anything for the person I love!
14:58Don't come near her ever again!
15:01Let's go, Lina!
15:03Wait!
15:04What's your deal?
15:07Lina is my ultimate favorite!
15:10Phew, that was close.
15:13I almost peed myself.
15:15Lina, are you okay?
15:18I'm sorry, Yamada. I did something selfish.
15:21I ignored you a lot, and I'm really sorry.
15:24You did it for my sake, right?
15:27I'm not angry, so please don't cry so much.
15:31You know, you're my ultimate favorite too.
15:35Huh? What do you mean?
15:37I like you too, Yamada.
15:40The trigger was when you saved me, but as we spent time together, that time became so much fun!
15:48Actually, suggesting making videos together.
15:51I just wanted to become friends with you.
15:54I see.
15:55Yamada, you know, I like you.
15:58I really, really like you.
16:01I love you more than anything, more than anyone, Lina.
16:05And so, Lina and I became a couple.
16:10Later on, the incident caused by Iyamida was spread as a rumor throughout the school,
16:15and he ended up becoming quiet, looked at with disapproval by others.
16:20By the way, the tickets Iyamida had were fake, and he used them to make Lina obey him.
16:26We ended up not being able to go to the live concert, though.
16:30Yeah! You're amazing!
16:33Instead, Lina organized a private live event just for me.
16:37Having my ultimate favorite all to myself was the best luxury!
16:42Lina, give me a fan service!
16:45Well, I guess there's no helping it.
16:47I love you, darling!
16:50I love you too!
16:53That's why I can't quit being an idols fan!
