Crane Game!
Someone hit on you when you were working?
When? Where? By whom?
Um... It was when I was playing a crane game.
"Hey, sorry this is so sudden, but you're cute."
It really was sudden!
Yes, I am cute!
You didn't tell him he was wrong!
Mirai-chan, did he seem like a good guy? He wasn't a loser?
Kyouko's totally acting like a mom, too!
Kyouko-chan, there's no need to worry!
Mirai won't date cheap men!
Glad to hear it.
Boss!
An idol is absolutely not allowed to fall in love!
FALLING

NO GOOD
It's their job to save the Earth.
I need to come down hard on them here...
Well, I guess that's okay.
Yeah! I know Daddy's gonna find me a wonderful prince!
I want to see the rest of my siblings happily married first.
Right?
Th-That's right!
Now's not the time to be thinking about boys.
Boys... boys...
Boys are all jerkfaces!
She's really upset.
I'm sure there's something complicated that only adults can understand going on.
I'm going to have a happy marriage and not end up like that!
Anyway, look at the prize for this time.
Did you notice? The trick... is the string.
Don't give up just because there doesn't seem to be an easy place to grab.
There's that nice string right there!
Do you think she has something against strings?
Yeah.
The prize this time is too hard!
You can't use the slide to get it.
The boss said to go for the string, but it's too small!
Don't give up, everyone!
Kyouko's right!
Remember exactly what the boss showed you.
Gorilla-san, I'm tired!
I've been doing nothing but playing crane games!
It feels like I'm further and further from becoming an idol.
I want to practice singing and dancing.
I was saying that from the start.
That's, well... You'll do it someday!
When?
Well...
Fine!
If you can get the prize this time, I'll tell you the truth!
Glad to hear it!
If we can get this...
...you have to tell us...
...the truth!
Fine. I promise.
We have to be extra-precise this time!
We practiced super-hard after that!
That's right! When the crane claw opens,
it's important to see how much it opens!
You match the edge of the claw with the ring!
And then... see?
Yes!
I promised.
I'll tell you the truth.
First, look at this!
Massive Asteroids Heading for Earth?
And now an update on the massive asteroids that are heading for Earth.
Oh, I saw this on the news.
The Earth is on the brink of untold disaster. And...
And...?
The only ones who can save the Earth... are you!
What?
Guys who string you along are no good!
But the Earth being destroyed is even worse!
