Crane Game!
Aww, you're so silly, boss!
Hey, I'm tired! Let's go home!
Unforunately, it's not a joke.
But how...
The key to that secret is this:
The Idol Training Crane Game!
This crane game is the secret?
That's right.
Each time you three learn a new skill,
the authorities have confirmed that several asteroids change course.
I don't get it at all!
Who are "the authorities"?
W.S.A. The World Space Agency.
Take another look at this.
Massive Asteroid Group Heading For Earth?!
This footage depicts a 400 km meteor
striking the Earth in a computer simulation.
The W.S.A, World Space Agency,
has confirmed that multiple asteroids are headed for Earth.
Tokiko, you've really advanced in your career.
This newscaster's cute!
Not as cute as me!
You three! Were you listening?
But we just wanted to be idols...
It's the size of that desire that's important.
Then couldn't you find somebody else who's more...
We know from our investigation that it has to be you!
My true identity
is an agent sent from the W.S.A.
My task
is to gather people who give off special waves that link with space,
and train them to save the Earth.
The size of your desire to become idols,
and the purity of your hearts...
You have both of those things together,
which is why you can save the Earth.
Then that was your goal from the start?
Yes.
Then I can't be an idol?
If the Earth's destroyed, you can't become anything, can you?
It has to be us three?
Yes. And we came up with a way to bring out your powers to the maximum
and gather them together:
The Idol Training Crane Game.
We...
...have to save...
...the Earth?
Are you three practicing?
I don't feel like it.
You heard the boss tell you what your job is, right?
I did.
Then work harder!
You heard about what your job is this time, right?
You can't win this prize just by pushing it.
So...
I can't!
Mirai?
I can't! I can't do it! I can't do it, not a chance!
What are you talking about? Unless the three of you work hard, the Earth will be destroyed.
I don't get it at all! I just want to be an idol!
I'm going home!
Mirai!
Kyouko...
If the Earth's going to be destroyed, I want to be with my family.
Kyouko...
What are you going to do now?
Oh no! The Earth...!
Asuka, you're not leaving too, are you?
This prize...
You just want to push it off, don't you?
That's the trick.
But you can't get it that way.
Yeah, I thought so.
But that's what you did to us, Gorilla.
Asuka...
I'll talk to them again!
Asuka!
Just you wait!
XX Days until the Earth is Destroyed!!
