Background Haruka's Room (Night)
Unit 1 Haruka's Room Unit 1
Haruka (icon) Haruka: "Thank you so much for putting on a solo show! I'm so happy to have been your fan and see you all come this far!"
Haruka (icon) Haruka: "I'm really looking forward to your next show! Please keep up the amazing work!"
Haruka (icon) Haruka: All of these letters are so heartwarming. It's really nice to see that everyone genuinely enjoyed our show...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But I wasn't expecting that we'd receive this many... Thank goodness we decided to use an anonymous forwarding service.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Still, it's always nice to receive these... Each person's handwriting is like an expression of their true feelings. Not only that...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Every envelope's really unique and cute. The one covered in cat stickers must be for Airi, and this one's...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: *Gasp* A limited-edition snow Phenny...!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Did they do this just for me? I'll try opening it...
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "Dear MMJ, Congratulations on a successful solo show! I couldn't believe what I witnessed! I honestly thought I was dreaming!"
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "I've actually been a big fan since when you were still in ASRUN. Unfortunately, I wasn't allowed to go to any shows since I was still in elementary school."
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "When I entered junior high school, I thought my chance finally came... But you retired before I could, which made me so sad..."
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Oh no...
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "I'd sort of given up hope until I heard about your solo show. Seeing your dazzling smile in person made me so incredibly happy!"
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "Thanks to that, I know that I'm going to be able to do my best tomorrow!"
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Doing your best tomorrow...
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "You were the reason I started watching MMJ's streams, Haruka, and since I've come to love all of you, being able to see MMJ's first solo show live was beyond exhilarating..."
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "I want more and more people to learn about MMJ. Also..."
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "My dream now is to see MMJ perform at the Butokan! I can't wait for when you all get your big chance to perform on a big stage!"
Haruka (icon) Haruka: The Butokan... That really is the dream. Not just for idols either. All artists.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Only the best of the best get to perform there, and our fans are hoping that we get to stand on that stage.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I was so overwhelmed the first time I did...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: ASRUN becoming popular enough to perform there in front of all those people made me realize just how much support they'd given us until that point...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: We were really able to give them hope and believe in a better tomorrow.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I want Minori to experience that moment one day...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: There's no way we can right now.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (You only get to perform at the Butokan after going through a judging process that requires artists to have a certain amount of name recognition and skill. And above all else, the ability to fill 15,000 seats.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (We're a couple of zeroes off since we just managed to put on a show for 700. I suppose the only way for us to get there is to gradually work our way up...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But is that going to be possible at our current pace...?

Haruka (icon) Haruka: Okay, here are the ones I finished reading yesterday.
Minori (icon) Minori: Thanks, Haruka! I can't wait to read more letters again today!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Then, Haruka, I'll hand the ones I've finished reading over to you.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: They were filled with so many kind words. Some were addressed to you, so I hope you get a chance to go through them.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Hehe. Some of the ones I read were addressed to you, Shizuku. It's always fun to get the letters from your fans since they're so passionate.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh, I see...! I'll be looking forward to reading them.
Airi (icon) Airi: Still, I really wasn't expecting to get this kind of response. I mean, we got so many letters that we had to split them into piles for each of us to read.
Minori (icon) Minori: Yeah, this is so amazing... We've even been getting more emails and DMs than usual.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yeah. And on top of all these kind messages...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: We've even started receiving offers for work, including interviews for magazines and short radio segments.
Minori (icon) Minori: I still can't believe it. I mean, the only offer we received until now was to perform at that elementary school.
Airi (icon) Airi: I have a feeling that it's because our show was picked up by some online news outlets.
Airi (icon) Airi: The three of us are idols who left their last groups... In essence, we went off the beaten path and managed to put on a successful solo show without the support of an agency.
Airi (icon) Airi: That definitely makes for a good headline, but the article itself was a bit fluffed up...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But that article helped increase our name recognition, so I'm very grateful.
Minori (icon) Minori: Me too! And since doing our solo show, our subscriber count has been skyrocketing!
Airi (icon) Airi: It's great that we're getting all this attention now, but...
Airi (icon) Airi: This is actually a good opportunity for us to think about our roots and decide what we're going to do moving forward.
Airi (icon) Airi: Now that we've taken the huge step of putting on a solo show, we need to figure out what our next big goal is gonna be... And what we're gonna do to make it happen...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Our next big goal and how to make it happen...
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "I want more and more people to learn about MMJ. Also..."
Unknown (icon) Fan Letter: "My dream now is to see MMJ perform at the Butokan! I can't wait for when you all get your big chance to perform on a big stage!"
Haruka (icon) Haruka: ...
Minori (icon) Minori: Sorry, would you mind if I fielded that?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Minori?
Minori (icon) Minori: So, after I got home once our show was done, I searched online to see what people thought of it...
Minori (icon) Minori: One person said, "I want you girls to do shows everywhere," and another, "I want more people to learn about you girls."
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Quite a few of our fans also said that in their letters...
Minori (icon) Minori: Exactly... Which is why I'm thinking that we should try doing what they're asking...
Minori (icon) Minori: Let's try performing in all sorts of different places and get people to know that MORE MORE JUMP! is here to stay.
Minori (icon) Minori: Let's spread and inspire hope in as many people as we can!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: As many people as we can...
Minori (icon) Minori: So, I began thinking about how we could accomplish that...
Minori (icon) Minori: Which is why I think MORE MORE JUMP! should go on tour!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: A tour...!
Minori (icon) Minori: It doesn't stop there!
Minori (icon) Minori: Once we've become famous enough to go on tour, I want us to do a show at the Dome.
Minori (icon) Minori: I want to spread hope to everyone in Japan... Just like how ASRUN did with me when I saw them for the first time!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: *Gasp*
Airi (icon) Airi: Th-That's pretty big talk...!
Airi (icon) Airi: MORE MORE JUMP! ...at the Dome?! I mean, that's the dream, but...
Minori (icon) Minori: I'm not joking!
Minori (icon) Minori: Seeing so many people smiling during our show filled me with so much joy... And it made me really glad that we never stopped trying.
Minori (icon) Minori: So, I'm gonna keep trying... My feelings from before haven't changed. I want to spread hope to everybody we meet.
Minori (icon) Minori: But...
Unknown (icon) Comments: <They're such an amazing group. I want more people to know about them.> <They just gotta keep advertising themselves. That should get the ball rolling in terms of their popularity.> <I know it's easier said than done, but they should do a show at the Dome.>
Minori (icon) Minori: They all have such high hopes for us...
Minori (icon) Minori: Our fans are hoping that we'll be able to stand on the biggest stage and spread hope to more and more people!
Minori (icon) Minori: That's what made me think... I... I want to...
Minori (icon) Minori: I want to become the best at spreading hope to others!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: ...!
Minori (icon) Minori: So, I want us to seriously try to become idols who are able to perform at Japan's biggest venues, like the Dome...
Minori (icon) Minori: I want us to become top idols!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (That's right. I also...)


Background Concert Stage
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Back then, I...)
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: ...
Airi (icon) Airi: Performing at the Dome as top idols, huh...?
Minori (icon) Minori: Uh...
Minori (icon) Minori: O-Of course, this is just me talking....
Minori (icon) Minori: So, I want to hear what you all think!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I understand how you feel, Minori. And I wouldn't expect any less from you...
Minori (icon) Minori: Haruka...!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I think I'm right in saying that the three of us also want to spread hope to as many people as possible.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: However, going for the top... I have a feeling that we're going to want to give that more thought given our current situation...
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah... That's a pretty lofty goal since we just finished putting on our first solo show.
Minori (icon) Minori: Oh...
Minori (icon) Minori: Right... It just isn't that easy, huh? I guess moving forward...
Minori (icon) Minori: Wait, it's already this late?! We need to get ready for our "Post Solo Show Stream"!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh, look at the time...!
Airi (icon) Airi: Alright, we'll pick this back up some other time. For now, let's get ready!
Airi (icon) Airi: Minori, Shizuku, you two get the tripod ready! Haruka, you get the phone!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: O-Okay, got it.
Minori (icon) Minori: Shizuku, let's get to work on the tripod!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Okay! We just need to pull these legs out, yes? Hm? It feels stuck...
Minori (icon) Minori: No, Shizuku, you're pulling it the wrong way! It's gonna break if you do that!

Background Scramble Crossing (Night)
Unit 1 Scramble Crossing Unit 1
Minori (icon) Minori: So many more people than usual tuned in to watch our "Post Solo Show Stream"!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: We must be getting featured after seeing such a large increase in subscribers.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Some of our first-time viewers even wrote in the comments for us. I felt compelled to do my best to make sure they also got to enjoy themselves.
Airi (icon) Airi: Hehe. Same.
Airi (icon) Airi: However, an increase in viewership means having to think whether or not we can do the same stuff we've been doing moving forward.
Airi (icon) Airi: Which is why I'd like to pick back up on the discussion we were having before our stream...
Minori (icon) Minori: I-I'm really sorry! My mom just asked me to go buy some ground beef at the store after she forgot...!
Minori (icon) Minori: Apparently, if I don't go, the meat sauce for our pasta's just going to consist of canned tomatoes!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: That actually sounds good by itself, but it wouldn't be meat sauce without any meat. You probably should go run to the store for her.
Minori (icon) Minori: I'm super sorry! I know we were about to have a really important discussion...!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Well, it is getting pretty late anyway, so don't worry about it.
Minori (icon) Minori: Th-Thanks...! I promise to think more about our future goals once I get home!
Minori (icon) Minori: Anyway, I need to get to the store! See you all later!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Okay, see you.
Airi (icon) Airi: Gone. Just like that...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Hehe. Minori really is a big bundle of energy.
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah, but... She really threw us a curveball there.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: She did...
Minori (icon) Minori: Our fans are hoping that we'll be able to stand on the biggest stage and spread hope to more and more people!
Minori (icon) Minori: So, I want us to seriously try to become idols who are able to perform at Japan's biggest venues, like the Dome...
Minori (icon) Minori: I want us to become top idols!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: The truth is, one of our fans said, "My dream now is to see MMJ perform at the Butokan!"
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: At the Butokan...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: When I saw that, a part of me said, "That'd be really amazing," while another part of me went, "Not as we currently are."
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah...
Airi (icon) Airi: The three of us used to be in famous idol groups, and we're blessed to have fans who've been following us since that time.
Airi (icon) Airi: However, that was then and this is now. Not all of our fans ended up making the transition, so there's no way we'll be able to fill 15,000 seats in our current state.
Airi (icon) Airi: Which is why my jaw sort of dropped when I heard about us performing at the Dome...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yeah, Airi's right. I felt the exact same way.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But despite that, I...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Minori's words made me realize that it's not about how many seats we can fill. The old me never worried about anything like that...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Back then, I just wanted to spread hope to as many people as I could.
Airi (icon) Airi: ...!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Yes, when we started our group, a part of me hoped that we'd get to perform at the Dome as MORE MORE JUMP! someday...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: But that's "someday"... And I know it's far into the future.
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah... As idols, we've got a lot of work to do before we can perform there.
Airi (icon) Airi: But it's a great goal... I mean, what idol wouldn't want to perform at the Dome in front of a full house?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Exactly... Again, what Minori said brought me to this realization.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Our goal is to spread and inspire hope in as many people as possible. That hasn't changed and it isn't going to anytime soon...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: And if we keep doing our best, the Dome will be waiting for us.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Let's go for it. Not "someday". Now. Let's do everything we can to fill the biggest venue in Japan and spread hope to everyone we meet.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: As top idols.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Yes!
Airi (icon) Airi: Let's do it!
Airi (icon) Airi: That's actually kinda funny since a lot of people have been saying that they couldn't get tickets for our solo show. In hindsight, 700 was probably too low.
Airi (icon) Airi: Plus, that article gave our channel a huge subscriber boost...
Airi (icon) Airi: I've been chatting with Saito about this, and she thinks that we can expect at least 2,000 for our next event. Maybe even 3,000.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: That's so many people...!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I was under the impression that 1,000 within six months or so might be possible...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But based on those figures, that's a venue the size of Shibuya Hall...
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah, that place is within our range now since it seats 1,900.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: This is incredible...! It's hard to believe that we're already in a position to do a show at Shibuya Hall...!
Airi (icon) Airi: We really couldn't have asked for a better start. Honestly, not many idol groups catch fire like this right out of the gates.
Airi (icon) Airi: However, the Dome seats 30,000. In our current state, there's just no way... But...
Airi (icon) Airi: As long as we maintain this momentum, we'll get there. So...
Airi (icon) Airi: Let's keep doing our best!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yeah!

Unit 1 Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy - Rooftop Unit 1
Minori (icon) Minori: I'm so sorry about what happened yesterday! I feel awful about leaving since we were about to have a really important discussion!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: That's okay. Did dinner go okay last night?
Minori (icon) Minori: Yup! The meat sauce turned out great and the pasta was delicious! So I really appreciate you guys letting me go!
Minori (icon) Minori: A-Anyway... Is it okay if we pick up where we left off yesterday...?
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah, of course! There's actually something we need to tell you, Minori.
Minori (icon) Minori: Huh?
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: So, after you left, the three of us had a little discussion regarding our future...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Including what you said about us becoming top idols...
Minori (icon) Minori: R-Really?!
Minori (icon) Minori: Um... How did you all feel about that...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: We found that we're all in favor.
Minori (icon) Minori: ...!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: To be perfectly honest, we weren't sure if we should have such a lofty goal since we just finished putting on our first solo show.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: However, you made us realize something.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Spreading hope to the people who come to see us is important, but so is doing that for everybody in Japan.
Minori (icon) Minori: Haruka...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: So...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Let's do it. Let's try to become idols who are worthy of performing at the Dome.
Minori (icon) Minori: Whoa...!
Airi (icon) Airi: However, that's easier said than done. We're still just getting started as an idol group and are gonna need to jump through a lot of hoops to get there.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Right. At the same time... It makes me want to work harder with all of you.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Me too. Not only that... I see no problem with us having a dream since it's an idol's duty to spread hope and inspire dreams.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: And I'm sure our fans will feel very inspired if we find a way to make our dream come true.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: So, let's do it...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Let's become top idols, spread hope to as many people as we can and inspire them to dream!
Minori (icon) Minori: Haruka...
Minori (icon) Minori: After reading about how everyone felt about our show and thinking that we could become the best, a part of me began to wonder if I was getting way too ahead of myself...
Minori (icon) Minori: But I really want to pursue that goal and I don't want to give up on it...
Minori (icon) Minori: Which is why I'm really glad that I worked up the courage to bring it up with all of you. And hearing that you're all in favor of it made me so happy!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Minori...
Minori (icon) Minori: Let's become top idols! Together!
Unknown (icon) Haruka, Shizuku & Airi: Yeah!

Background Miya Girls Academy Rooftop
Unit 1 Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy - Rooftop Unit 1
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Okay, now that we've decided to try to become top idols in order to be able to perform at the Dome...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: We'll need to start thinking about how we're actually going to accomplish that.
Minori (icon) Minori: Right! Performing at the Dome's way in the future...
Minori (icon) Minori: Until then, we should probably perform in shows at increasingly bigger venues. Those should work as stepping stones, right?
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh, about that...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: We were actually thinking that we may be able to put on a show at a slightly bigger venue.
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah. For example, Shibuya Hall.
Minori (icon) Minori: What? Shibuya Hall...? As in THE Shibuya Hall?
Minori (icon) Minori: That'd be amazing...! We'd be able to perform in front of so many people!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: At the same time, if we think we can fill 2,000 seats, we could start aiming a little higher.
Minori (icon) Minori: H-Higher...?
Airi (icon) Airi: We have a big dream now, so if we are aiming to have 10,000 guests... That's about how many the Ryogoku Sumo Arena or Nonogi Gymnasium seat.
Airi (icon) Airi: 15,000 would mean the Butokan.
Minori (icon) Minori: The Butokan...
Minori (icon) Minori: Someone said that they want to see us perform there, right...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Right...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Us performing there would mean making their dream come true.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: So, I want to aim for that. If we're going to perform at the Dome, we should try to perform at the Butokan first.
Airi (icon) Airi: 15,000 people... It's a huge number, but that's what we gotta go for if we want to be #1!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: But that means we'll need to figure out a way to increase our audience size from 700 to 15,000.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: How do we actually go about doing that...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Our fan base should grow as long as we keep doing streams... However, 15,000 is going to be difficult to reach based on our current rate.
Minori (icon) Minori: Does that mean we have to start rethinking how we do our streams? Especially since that one article gave us such a big boost!
Airi (icon) Airi: We have a few options to choose from now, including magazines, radio...
Minori (icon) Minori: *Gasp* That's right. We got some offers for work!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Yes, we did... Those may benefit us quite a bit!
Airi (icon) Airi: I agree for the most part... However, we should do some research on each company before we accept any offers.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Right. We received a lot of messages, but some seemed pretty sketchy.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Why don't we take this opportunity to go through them and get ourselves organized...?
Minori (icon) Minori: Okay...! This is so exciting! I can't wait to see who's been trying to reach us since I haven't had a chance to look through all of them...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I'll check the emails. Minori, can you take the DMs? Airi, if you could look through the comments for our streams...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: And Shizuku... Would you mind assisting Minori and Airi?
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh, I get to be their assistant? That sounds like fun!
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah... Alright, Shizuku, I'm gonna need all the help you can give me!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Then, let's get started.
Unknown (icon) Airi, Shizuku & Minori: Okay!


Unit 1 Several dozen minutes later Unit 1
Minori (icon) Minori: Alright, the next DM says...
Minori (icon) Minori: <Dear MORE MORE JUMP! I'd like to congratulate you all for successfully putting on your first solo show! I was very impressed that you had put on the event all on your own!>
Minori (icon) Minori: <As it so happens, my company produces a diet supplement called "Super Weight Loss Beauty DX" which allows you to lose 30 kg by taking it each day, and we'd like for you to all advertise it...>
Minori (icon) Minori: L-Lose 30 kg?!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Won't you vanish into thin air if you take enough of those...?!
Airi (icon) Airi: You know it's a straight-up scam, right?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: If you wanna lose weight, you gotta eat right and get plenty of exercise. There's no such thing as magic diet pills.
Minori (icon) Minori: R-Right... For a second there, I was amazed by how a product like that might be out there.
Airi (icon) Airi: Unfortunately, from what I've seen, a lot of the messages we got are pretty shady...
Airi (icon) Airi: Again, before we accept any offers, we need to know who's sending us these offers. If we're not careful, things could get ugly fast.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Us falling victim is one thing, but if we ended up advertising such unwholesome products... I'd really rather not bring harm to anyone.
Airi (icon) Airi: Me neither.
Airi (icon) Airi: *Sigh* Going through all these messages is hard enough. Weeding out the bad ones is just extra work on top of that.
Airi (icon) Airi: Doing this makes me realize just how important managers are.
Minori (icon) Minori: But it's not all bad! We've gotten some good ones, so let's try to be optimistic!
Minori (icon) Minori: The next one says...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh, mind if I also have a look? Let's see...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: <I apologize for contacting you so suddenly like this. I work as the producer for "idol Hazard" which is currently airing on Tokyo NX.>
Minori (icon) Minori: Whaaat?!?! The producer for iHaz?!?!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh, you scared me there...
Minori (icon) Minori: S-Sorry, Shizuku! I was so startled that...!
Airi (icon) Airi: Huh? "iHaz"...?
Minori (icon) Minori: Have you heard of it, Airi?! Like this person said, it's a show that airs on Tokyo NX late at night!
Minori (icon) Minori: Its full title is "idol Hazard", but everyone calls it "iHaz"! The MC changes each time since they ask various idols from all these different groups to lead the show...
Minori (icon) Minori: It only started airing recently, but a lot of people have been praising it because you get to see all these guest groups interacting with everyone!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: So, the producer for this show contacting us must mean...
Minori (icon) Minori: Y-Yeah...! What if...? Just what if...?!
Minori (icon) Minori: Sh-Shizuku! Please, keep reading!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: O-Okay, umm...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: <I've actually been watching some of your streams, and my interest in your group has only grown since hearing how you successfully put on your very first solo show.>
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: <Since then, I've been watching the archive footage of your streams. The fun energy you all exude has become a great source of encouragement for me.>
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: <I'd really like it if you could share some of that energy with our viewers by appearing on our program.>
Minori (icon) Minori: No way! It's a real offer to really appear on TV...!
Airi (icon) Airi: Mind if I take a look at that...?
Airi (icon) Airi: I see... In short, they want us to appear for their five-minute segment where they feature idols who are currently trending.
Minori (icon) Minori: Th-Th-This is so cool...! We might get to be on TV...!
Minori (icon) Minori: More importantly, this is an amazing opportunity to get our name out there and have more people learn about us!
Airi (icon) Airi: I agree. I know it's just a five-minute appearance, but talk about hitting the jackpot.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: I'd like to accept as well!
Minori (icon) Minori: How about you, Haruka?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Well...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (This producer's pretty famous and sounds very sincere, so I think it's safe to say that it's a real offer.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Not only that, this is a huge chance for us. I was expecting to start with much smaller offers before tackling something so big...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (But a huge opportunity like this is...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I'd like some time to think about it...
Airi (icon) Airi: Care to explain why?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I'm not sure if appearing on TV is what we should be doing right now...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yes, a TV appearance may expand our fan base. We've gained a nice following online through our streams, but TV is on a completely different level.
Minori (icon) Minori: Then...!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But that has its drawbacks.
Minori (icon) Minori: Drawbacks...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: What I'm trying to say is that there may be unexpected consequences.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: What if something one of us says is taken out of context for the purposes of entertainment? Sure, the show may benefit from that...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But we'd end up hurting our fans as a result.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Of course, I understand that not all TV programs are produced in such a way. There are many good things to be had...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But appearing on TV means being prepared for such things. That's why I'm having a hard time immediately accepting this offer...
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah, there's definitely a certain amount of risk involved...
Airi (icon) Airi: Now that you mention it... I remember this one time when they took one of my quips and edited it to make it look like I was bad-mouthing this actor that appeared with us.
Minori (icon) Minori: What?! No way! Was everything okay after that?
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah, things got pretty hectic after it aired. Some of that actor's fans still bring it up from time to time...
Airi (icon) Airi: But my fans claimed, "Airi would never say stuff like that," which helped keep things from really getting out of hand.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Thank goodness...
Airi (icon) Airi: Still, despite what happened...
Airi (icon) Airi: I think the benefits of us appearing on TV outweigh the costs, so I'm in favor of accepting this offer.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Right... Despite having a really bad experience, Airi's still in favor...)
Minori (icon) Minori: Oh no! The bell rang!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Our lunch break's already over... The time just flew by during this discussion.
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah, and we still haven't reached a consensus...
Airi (icon) Airi: So, let's all sleep on this and continue another time.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Sorry... I didn't mean to rain on your parade. I know you're all excited about this opportunity.
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: No, don't say that. Your opinions are just as valid as ours, so thank you for sharing with us.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Shizuku...
Minori (icon) Minori: She's right! For stuff like this, we should all be in agreement before we accept or reject...
Minori (icon) Minori: Because it's all for one and one for all with MORE MORE JUMP!
Airi (icon) Airi: Precisely... So, Haruka, feel free to speak your mind. You don't have to hold anything back from us.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: All of you...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Thank you... I'll give what we discussed some more thought.

Haruka (icon) Haruka: Wow... Today's bath salts smell so nice.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Still, us appearing on TV...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (I gave it a lot of thought while taking my bath, but I still couldn't reach a decision.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (The others said that they "understand" how I feel... And yet, they're all for it.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But...
Airi (icon) Airi: Now that you mention it... I remember this one time when they took one of my quips and edited it to make it look like I was bad-mouthing this actor that appeared with us.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Those things do actually happen...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Performing at the Dome means filling an enormous number of seats. And I believe appearing on TV will ultimately help us do that...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (However, there's a possibility that who we are or what we believe will become warped. Not only that...)
Airi (icon) Airi: That definitely makes for a good headline, but the article itself was a bit fluffed up...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Despite being a short article, it had some inconsistencies.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (We're not going to be able to avoid things like that if we want to keep doing more as idols...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Especially since the three of us were once a part of bigger groups, some are likely going to make fun of us for trying to do things on our own.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: By appearing on TV, there's also a chance that we'll end up disappointing all those who've been supporting us up until now.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (On the other hand, some people may become our fans after seeing us on TV...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But given the risk of possibly having our image twisted and disappointing our fans... Is it really worth it?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Still...
Minori (icon) Minori: Th-Th-This is so cool...! We might get to be on TV...!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: I'd like to accept as well!
Airi (icon) Airi: I think the benefits of us appearing on TV outweigh the costs, so I'm in favor of accepting this offer.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Am I overthinking this...? I did plenty of TV appearances when I was still with ASRUN, and I usually had a lot of fun...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (The others are incredibly optimistic about this, so maybe if we gave one appearance a try...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: No, that's not good enough. Regardless of whether or not we make a successful appearance, I won't feel satisfied.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (The others even said that there's no point in proceeding with this unless I agree... So, I want to first flesh out how I really feel about this offer.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (But that may be a little hard on my own. I'd really like to get an objective second opinion right about now...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Wait, that's it...!

Haruka (icon) Haruka: Can I ask you all for a bit of your time?
Miku mmj (icon) Miku: Hm? Haruka? What are you doing here at this time?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I've been having trouble coming up with an answer to something on my own. So, I'd like to ask all of you for your opinions...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: The thing is...


Miku mmj (icon) Miku: Oh, that's wonderful...! You girls have set your sights on performing at the Dome!
KAITO mmj (icon) KAITO: It is a wonderful dream. That only makes me more excited about your future.
KAITO mmj (icon) KAITO: But we'll need to find an answer to your question before you can feel happy about that, yes...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yes.
Len mmj (icon) Len: About you girls making that TV appearance, right?
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: So, Haruka, you're worried that MMJ's image and message might not come across the way you want it to and possibly upset your fans if you appear on TV...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yes... I know that shows are edited in a way to be entertaining, which is fine since I also like programs that are fun to watch...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But I'm worried that what we want to convey is going to fall victim to that process. I'm concerned that we'll appear vain or conceited, which will disappoint all of our fans...
Miku mmj (icon) Miku: Haruka...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But that's not destined to happen just because I think it might, right...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: So, I'm starting to wonder why I'm considering not making this appearance.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I suppose I'm just worried about us not having the backup and protection of an agency. Is that why I'm not prepared to go on TV yet?
Luka mmj (icon) Luka: I don't think so...
KAITO mmj (icon) KAITO: Me neither. Especially considering how much you care about your fans, Haruka...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Right...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: We're always doing everything we can to spread hope to our fans... But they've also given us so much.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: MORE MORE JUMP! fans must be so happy knowing that they get to be there for such thoughtful idols.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Oh...
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Hehe. There's no need to be embarrassed by that. Personally, as your fan, I can't help but fall further in love with you, Haruka♪
Haruka (icon) Haruka: H-Hey, quit teasing me.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Hehehe. That's what makes you so great, Haruka.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: As your fan, I want to say, "Don't worry."
Haruka (icon) Haruka: What do you mean...?
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: I've become very familiar with you girls.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Including the hope and warmth you wish to spread to others.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: And those things mean quite a lot to me...
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: So, a TV appearance isn't going to easily change how I feel about all of you.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: We'll never stop being your fans because we know what MORE MORE JUMP! is really about.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Oh...
Airi (icon) Airi: Now that you mention it... I remember this one time when they took one of my quips and edited it to make it look like I was bad-mouthing this actor that appeared with us.
Minori (icon) Minori: What?! No way! Was everything okay after that?
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah, things got pretty hectic after it aired. Some of that actor's fans still bring it up from time to time...
Airi (icon) Airi: But my fans claimed, "Airi would never say stuff like that," which helped keep things from really getting out of hand.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: So, don't worry. I'm sure everything will be fine. Regardless of the kind of television program you girls appear on, we won't get disappointed or stop being your fans.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Also...
As A Fan
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: I want more and more people to learn about the group we all love! I want more and more people to fall in love with MORE MORE JUMP!
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: I want you girls to spread more hope and warmth to others.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Which I believe you'll have no problem doing when you're in front of those cameras.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Right♪
Haruka (icon) Haruka: MEIKO...
Miku mmj (icon) Miku: I agree... You girls are who you are. Nothing is going to change that.
Rin mmj (icon) Rin: Yeah! As long as your intentions don't change, everyone will get your message!
Luka mmj (icon) Luka: Yes... Not only that, I'm sure that your fans are also looking forward to having your TV appearance lead to more people learning about you girls.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: True... The ones who sent us those letters will probably be very happy.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Thank you all very much. You've given me quite a bit of encouragement.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: However, Haruka, the final decision rests with you and your group, so it's okay for you to take your time with this.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: While you do, it may be good to take a hard look at what you're feeling...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: At what I'm feeling?
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Yes. You girls put on a successful solo show and have put forth a fantastic goal for yourselves. As a result, you're at a crossroads so to speak.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: It's not uncommon to lose sight of what means most to you... Why you decided to become an idol in the first place or how you felt back then...
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: So, now might not be a bad time to look back on all that.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Oh...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: You might be right... Thank you. I think I'll do just that.
MEIKO mmj (icon) MEIKO: Hehe...
Luka mmj (icon) Luka: We'll be looking forward to seeing what MORE MORE JUMP! has in store for us.

Haruka (icon) Haruka: MEIKO's right...

Haruka (icon) Haruka: (We as a group want to do that for everyone we've met, and everyone we're going to meet in the future...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: So, why did I want to become an idol in the first place? What kind of idol do I want to become? I really need to think about those things...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I... I wanted to become an idol because...


Unit 1 A few years ago Unit 1
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: "And so, the Princess was able to use her beautiful smile to spread love and courage to people all over."
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: (This book seemed like it was meant for little kids, but it ended up being pretty fun. The Princess was so cheerful and helped solve so many different problems...)
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: (I should thank the teacher tomorrow for letting me borrow this...)
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Haruka, do you have a minute?
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: Sure, is something the matter?
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Actually, here...! Grandma just sent you a present.
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: It's your reward for getting 100 on that test you took the other day. You've been wanting this Yudetama pencil case, right?
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: Oh... Thanks...
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Hehe... If only it were easier to make you smile, Haruka.
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: No, um... I'm really happy, but...
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: No, that's okay! Really! I know that you couldn't be happier.
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: I'll make sure to tell Grandma that you love her gift.
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: Thanks, Mommy...
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Oh, also. Yudetama's going to be doing a show at a mall a little away from us this weekend.
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Would you like to go? You might even get to shake hands!
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: Really? Yeah, that'd be nice.
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: We can also invite your father! Anyway, I'll let you know when dinner's ready.
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: Okay, thanks.
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: (... I made Mommy frown again.)
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: (But I really am happy about the pencil case Grandma sent, and how I get to see Yudetama's show...)

Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: Yeah, he was really cute, and I had a lot of fun.
Haruka (icon) Little Haruka: But I also feel kind of tired. There were so many people...
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Hehe. Very true. It is already lunch time, so how about we take a break?
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Father: In that case, I'll go buy us something. I saw a nice shop just over there.

Background Haruka's Room (Night)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: That really takes me back. I can still recall exactly what happened that day.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Her frilly outfit was so cute, and it fluttered every time she moved...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Her smile glimmered as she sang and danced too. It's like she was lighting a fire inside my heart as she did...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I didn't realize it until then, but that was me being filled with "hope".
Haruka (icon) Haruka: What I want to spread to everyone is the hope I felt that day. The belief that tomorrow will be a better day.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: That's not going to change. Not now. Not ever...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Mom...?
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Are you still up? There's something I'd like to show you.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Huh? What do you want to show me...?
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Hehe. This. Your father just happened to spot it in the evening paper.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (The evening paper? Oh, did they write an article about our solo show...?)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (No, a paper with nationwide reach couldn't have...)
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Here, look. It's a very brief article...
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: But isn't this that lady you like so much, Haruka...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Huh...?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: L-Lemme see that...!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: It's her...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Her clothes and hair are different now, but that smile... It has to be...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: "Although she's retired from being an idol and stepped away from the spotlight, she continues to spread hope to others..."
Haruka (icon) Haruka: "Now, following her retirement, she's become a radio personality for a station in another part of the country. However, her activities are not confined to a cramped studio."
Haruka (icon) Haruka: "Between retirement homes, kindergartens, hot springs and such, she uses her past experience as a star to stand on stages all over her region..."
Haruka (icon) Haruka: "And so, she continues to spread hope and inspire courage in others with her dazzling smile and beautiful voice."
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I wasn't sure what happened to her after she retired from being an idol...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But that's so great... She hasn't changed... She's still spreading hope to lots and lots of people.
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Oh, look at this photo... She's smiling alongside all these children. She hasn't changed one bit.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yeah... She really hasn't.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Thanks for showing me this, Mom.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I was able to receive more hope from her because of this article...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: This article...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Right... Because of this article... Now, I...
Unknown (icon) Haruka's Mother: Haruka? Is something the matter?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: No, I finally found the answer I was looking for. I need to tell the others about this tomorrow.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: She gave me another push...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Even now... You're still my hero.

Background Miya Girls Academy Rooftop
Unit 1 The next day Unit 1
Unit 1 Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy - Rooftop Unit 1
Airi (icon) Airi: Alright... Now that we've had a night to sleep on it...
Airi (icon) Airi: Let's return to discussing how we all feel about appearing on TV.
Minori (icon) Minori: O-Okay. So... Who should start?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Mind if I?
Airi (icon) Airi: Sure... You have the floor.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Then, I'll get straight to the point... I...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I'm in favor of us appearing on TV.
Minori (icon) Minori: What...?!
Airi (icon) Airi: I honestly wasn't expecting you to say that, Haruka... What made you change your mind?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: So, the thing is...


Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: That's so wonderful...! Your hero was really in the newspaper...?!
Haruka (icon) Haruka: She was. I had no idea what had happened to her after she retired from being an idol.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But that article showed me that she's still spreading hope to many people, even though she's not an idol anymore...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: And I found that incredibly encouraging...
Minori (icon) Minori: Haruka...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Which made me think... Yes, I am afraid that the media can take things out of context and skew our image...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: However, that also means it has the power to allow us to spread hope to more and more people, including those we have yet to encounter.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: This article showed me just that...
Airi (icon) Airi: You're right... I was actually gonna say something similar today.
Airi (icon) Airi: For example, they may not realize it yet, but there may be people out there who really need some hope...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Those who need hope but don't realize it...?
Airi (icon) Airi: Yeah. I mean, the ones who really have it rough only have time to worry about themselves. They wouldn't be running around seeing their favorite idols perform, right?
Airi (icon) Airi: But I think TV has the power to bring us together.
Airi (icon) Airi: Newspapers are no different. Haruka, you just happened to come across an article about your hero and felt encouraged, right?
Airi (icon) Airi: Imagine if we're able to give someone hope after they just happen to see us on TV? How awesome would that be?
Minori (icon) Minori: Yeah, that'd be amazing! And so wonderful...!
Airi (icon) Airi: Hehe. Right?
Airi (icon) Airi: Not only that, our fans are gonna be ecstatic when they see us being exposed to a broader audience on TV.
Airi (icon) Airi: Which is why I'm for us making this TV appearance...
Airi (icon) Airi: But I'd like to hear what you all have to say.
Minori (icon) Minori: After hearing what you two had to say, Haruka, Airi, I realized that I hadn't given this enough thought, but...
Minori (icon) Minori: I also want us to make this appearance. Until now, we've mainly been doing streams online and...
Minori (icon) Minori: I'm worried that we're limited to reaching only those who choose to come to watch us...
Minori (icon) Minori: It takes me back to how Haruka gave me so much hope when I saw her on TV.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Minori...
Airi (icon) Airi: Hehe. Alright, Minori's on board... Last but not least, Shizuku, how do you feel?
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: I...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: I actually wasn't sure what to say until just a moment ago...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: As much as I want us to appear on TV, I found myself sympathizing with what Haruka said yesterday. I'd really rather not see our image get warped by others...
Airi (icon) Airi: Shizuku...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: But after hearing your stories, I'm sure now that we'll be just fine.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: What...?
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Because we're all doing everything we can to spread hope to as many people as possible, yes?
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: I believe that won't ever change. So, even if what we say didn't quite come out the way we wanted it to...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: We can just keep trying over and over. It may take some time, but everyone will eventually understand.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Oh...


Background Stage SEKAI
Haruka (icon) Haruka: MEIKO said something similar...
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Oh, she did...?! That makes me so happy.
Minori (icon) Minori: Hang on, Haruka... Does that mean you went over to SEKAI?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Oh...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: I was actually quite unsure of myself, so I ended up going over to ask for some advice...
Airi (icon) Airi: Oh, Haruka...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: This is a big decision after all...
Haruka (icon) Haruka: But I'm glad that I gave it so much thought. I was able to reach the same conclusion as all of you, which means we can start preparing for our TV appearance...
Minori (icon) Minori: Yeah, wow... We're really gonna appear on TV...
Minori (icon) Minori: Oh no...! I'm starting to get really nervous! Am I gonna be okay?! What if I stammer while on camera?!
Airi (icon) Airi: Slow down. You're getting way too ahead of yourself. We haven't even accepted that person's offer yet.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Oh, about that. I was thinking about replying to them today.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Yes, we've all decided that we want to make this appearance, but I kept us from reaching a consensus.
Airi (icon) Airi: Again, don't worry about that. This was an important discussion, so it was only right to spend a lot of time on it.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Right...
Airi (icon) Airi: However, if you're volunteering to reply, we're not gonna stop you. Also, I'm sure you'll know exactly what to say.
Minori (icon) Minori: Yeah! I'm really bad at writing businessy letters and stuff... So, Haruka, if you will!
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: I can't say that I'm very good at that either... I'd like to ask you to do this for us as well, Haruka.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Okay, no problem.
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (Our response to this message is likely going to greatly affect the future of MORE MORE JUMP!)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (But we'll be fine. Because...)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (We want to become idols who are able to spread hope to not just the people we meet, but also those we yet haven't.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: (And this is our first step towards achieving that goal.)
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Everyone...
Minori (icon) Minori: Haruka?
Shizuku (icon) Shizuku: Yes?
Haruka (icon) Haruka: Let's keep doing our best. For as long as we can.
Unknown (icon) Shizuku, Airi & Minori: Yeah!

Unknown (icon) Producer: Ah, hello. Nice work today.
Unknown (icon) Producer: Anyway, that's it for today's shoot. Tomorrow, we'll be meeting with everyone from U-Symphonium since they'll be the MCs of iHaz next week.
Unknown (icon) Producer: And I'm so glad that MORE MORE JUMP! decided to appear. They're all the rage right now, so it should be a good show...
Unknown (icon) Producer: Hm? Who's calling me at this hour?
Unknown (icon) Producer: Hello...? Ah, perfect. I was just hoping to speak with the hard-working manager of U-Symphonium... Wait, huh?
Unknown (icon) Producer: Your lead's in the hospital?! Th-That's very concerning... Our shoot's just around the corner. Oh, you have a backup group ready?
Unknown (icon) Producer: Wonderful. So, which group did you have in mind...?
Unknown (icon) Producer: Cheerful * Days...
Unknown (icon) Producer: No, um...! This program airs late at night, so we'll always welcome having such a popular group on. Thank you very much.
Unknown (icon) Producer: Anyway, we can discuss this further tomorrow during our meeting.
