They've almost finished today's fashion practice!
I wonder what the focus of their practice is!
Our final exam's coming up soon.
We've learned how to design...
Reina Mia
and balance costumes to match our personalities.
We've learned about TPO and shoes, too.
So what's left?
Karin
Probably...
Yeah?
What?
Sexy outfits!
I don't think so.
Sorry. I'm with Reina there, too.
Really? So what do you think we'll be learning?
Look! Akkina-san sent us an email.
What's it say?
Huh?
Today's Theme Don't forget about your hairstyle!
Today's theme: Don't forget about your hairstyle!
Oh, our hairstyle.
A well-balanced outfit must take the hair into account. This is an advanced technique! There are countless hairstyles you can make! Try experimenting with them!
A well-balanced outfit must take the hair into account. This is an advanced technique!
There are countless hairstyles you can make. Try experimenting with them!
That's it.
I get it!
What?
Well, I get a really good vibe from Karin today.
Me too!
It feels like your clothes and hairstyle really complement each other.
Yeah!
I get it.
Let's give it a try!
Pretty Remake!
This dress has a tube top, frilled skirt and pink boots.
For this lovely outfit...
Wavy ethnic hair makes the outfit look natural. It flows naturally when you dance.
Wavy Ethnic Hair
Cute dollish hair would look kinda like this. It's thick, and doesn't detract from the outfit itself.
Cute Dollish Hair
What about adding a brazen tiara to the outfit?
Add a Tiara for Balance
Pure Crystal Tiara
I bet every girl wants to be like that.
Well, I guess you'd want a pure white wedding dress to go with it.
Pure White Wedding Dress
I never knew you could change an outfit so much just by changing the hairstyle!
I'm getting even more excited about the final exam!
It's time for today's episode!
Pretty Rhythm Aurora Dream!
Happy-Lucky-Go!
It's finally time for the Tiara Cup!
Yeah.
Wow.
Look at all those Prism Stones.
Everyone wants to win.
I can't believe I'm standing here with them!
I'm gonna beat everyone here!
That includes you, Aira. I won't go easy on you just 'cause we're friends!
Rhythm-chan...
I see you as an equal.
It's like we're rivals, pushing each other to excel.
Win or lose, there'll be no hard feelings.
Let's give it our all!
Yeah!
First, we'll have to get through the prelims! C'mon, Aira!
Hey, wait up!
The Tiara Cup Begins!
"Round One: Fashion."
"Round Two: Prism Jump."
Winners will participate in the Prism Show, which will constitute the finals.
The theme for today's contest is "Wedding."
Remember everything you've learned, and create the ultimate wedding dress!
Sure. Just leave it to me!
It is every girl's dream to wear a wedding dress.
Water fowl yearn to fly, if only for an instant. Stars yearn to sparkle, if only for an instant.
So you must never lose that burning desire to win.
Right!
A wedding dress...
What's wrong?
Oh, nothing.
I'm gonna get some fresh air.
What's with Aira?
I'll go keep an eye on her.
Hey!
I'll look after her.
Aira.
President Asechi.
What's on your mind?
You don't seem nervous.
You know how talented you are when it comes to fashion, don't you?
Something feels different this time.
Different?
Yes. There's a wedding-oriented theme today, so I was planning to wear a white dress.
Do you think that's appropriate?
That's not something I can answer, but I do admire brides who wear white.
I'd like to wear one, but I wasn't fortunate enough to get the opportunity to do so.
I was engaged to be married once, but I was dumped at the altar.
Really?!
Didn't he like your personality?
Hey! What are you implying?!
I-I'm sorry, ma'am!
That's why I admire women who get married.
Well, I'm probably too old for that now.
You're not too old.
It doesn't matter how old you are.
A white dress...
A wedding dress is the symbol of a woman's success in life!
Aira...
I'm rooting for you!
I know you'll wear a wedding dress someday!
Rooting for you...
Yes. I want you to get married someday.
Where's Aira? It'll be her turn soon.
She'll be fine.
You can trust our President to take care of things.
All right.
Rhythm.
You came to watch us!
Sure we did!
Our two favorite idols are competing today.
You combined several different types of cloth in that outfit, didn't you?
Yeah. That's what I was going for.
Rhythm came up with this idea all on her own!
I wanted to stand out from the other girls. It's more fun that way.
Wow.
That's a good way of looking at things.
Not really...
The old me wouldn't have been able to think of something like this.
I've changed since I met all of you and started performing in Prism Shows with Aira.
I couldn't have done this alone.
It's all because I've had fun with everyone, training every day.
I'm touched! So that's how you came up with the idea for that outfit!
H-Hey, Teddie!
Please, don't cry.
Rhythm.
You look beautiful in that outfit.
I've never seen you look better.
Hey, what'd you do to her?
I cast a magic spell to calm her down.
Right?
R-Right...
Amamiya Rhythm, please come to the stage.
It's your turn!
Knock 'em dead!
R-Right.
Give it your best!
Wow...
I've never seen anything quite like this before.
I was getting bored with seeing the same thing over and over.
The judges seem to like it, too!
The judges wanted to see something unique!
That was close!
Good work!
Where's Aira?
She's on next!
Aira!
Whoa! She's wearing a blue dress!
Harune Aira, please come to the stage.
See you later!
What on Earth?
Virginal blue.
She's adopted the traditional "something blue" for her costume.
According to tradition, there are four things that a bride must wear to bring happiness to herself and others.
"Something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue."
I see. She chose this outfit to help the audience feel happy.
It's her wedding, but she's not standing out as the main character.
This costume makes her part of the supporting cast.
An intriguing candidate.
Hmmm...
Not bad for a small fry!
W-W-What was that all about, Aira? Why'd you wear a blue dress?
Well, I...
You put a lot of thought into it, didn't you?
I want all girls wearing their wedding dress to be happy from now on.
That's what made my costume stand out from the rest!
That's so you, Aira. Well done.
Well, there you have it.
You can't give up yet, Boss. There are many fishes in the sea.
Oh, shut up!
Ouch!
Anyway, it looks like they're about to announce the scores.
We will now announce the top thirty contestants for the fashion component of our show.
Ninth, Amamiya Rhythm with 724 carats.
Yes!
I made it!
You were awesome out there, Rhythm-chan!
724 carats.
To be honest, I expected more from you.
I lost quite a few points when I tripped.
In first place, Harune Aira, with one thousand and fifty carats!
No way!
Wow!
You earned more than a thousand carats!
You're incredible.
You really are amazing, Aira!
You look feverish, Rhythm-chan.
Huh? Really?
Your face is beet red.
Are you okay?
I'm fine.
We'll knock 'em dead in round two!
Rhythm-chan! You've got a high fever!
Huh? Really?
I guess Hibiki's lucky charm worked a little too well.
Rhythm-chan!
Rhythm-chan! Rhythm-chan!
Are you all right, Rhythm-chan?
I don't think she's down with a cold, but she should let a doctor take a look at her.
No. I want to win this tournament, no matter what!
That's out of the question!
You've got a fever! If you jump now, you'll get injured!
I don't care! I want to perform!
You need your rest!
I hope you remembered to take a day off yesterday.
Well, actually, I...
Actually...
Hooray! The Tiara Cup's tomorrow!
It's late, Rhythm. You should get some sleep.
I'm too excited to sleep!
I wanna get some more practice done!
Go to bed! Now!
She didn't sleep a wink!
I'll be fine.
I drank ten energy drinks, so I'm not sleepy at all.
Please, let me go on stage!
Fine.
But until your name is called, you are to stay here and rest!
Yes, ma'am!
Jun! Make sure she gets her rest.
Yes, ma'am.
You mustn't push yourself too hard, Rhythm-chan.
I'll be fine.
I'm so sleepy...
Just let her sleep.
There's no need to push her any harder.
Yes, ma'am.
Come with me, Aira.
Y-Yes, ma'am.
Heartful Splash!
Bronze Spiral!
Miss Fairy Girl!
They're all beginners.
I hope we'll see something better this year.
You can say that again.
They're no match for Aira.
C'mon! You're up.
Just show 'em what you always do!
You'll be fine!
Mom...
Harune Aira, please come to the stage.
Rhythm-chan...
She doesn't have what it takes to be a star.
I Change For Me jibun to
I change for me, for myself
Itsudemo mukiai
We're always facing each other
She...
I Don't Give It Up jibun ni
I don't give it up, not for myself
What are you doing, Aira?
I have to play for time until Rhythm-chan wakes up.
Yume to mirai katarikakeru
I'll address my dreams and future
I Change For You anata to
I change for you, for you
Don't tell me...
Omoi wo wakeai
We'll share our thoughts
She's buying time until Rhythm wakes up?!
You Don't Give It Up anata mo
You don't give it up, not for you either
Yuuki tsunagu shimei aru hazu
Our duty connects our bravery together
Just a little more...
I have to keep stalling.
Mita koto nai kiseki okoshi kokoro no kabe koeyou
The things I don't see is the source of miracles beyond the walls of my heart
But...
She'll be disqualified if she goes over the time limit.
Aira...
Imasugu issho ni
Let's be together now
I Can Get Up! Ippozutsu Get Down!
I can get up! One step at a time! Get down!
What's she doing?
Akiranai jibun ni Jump!
I'm not going to give up! Jump!
What is she thinking?
Rhythm-chan...
We Can Stand Up! Massugu ni Step Up!
We can stand up! Straight ahead! Step up!
There's something odd about Ms. Harune! She hasn't performed her Prism Jump yet!
Kokoro, odoridasu!
Heart, jump out!
Aurora Rising!
Where am I?
Is she in trouble?
We Can Stand Up! Nandemo Step up!
We can stand up! By all means step up!
She's taken much longer than expected!
Kokoro wa Dream goes on!
The heart's dream goes on!
If she doesn't do her jump soon, she will be disqualified!
Aira!
Hurry, Rhythm!
Tell her you're all right!
Huh? Oh, right!
I sing for you eien no
I sing for you forever
Kizuna wo musunde
A bond binds us together
Good grief. I can't believe she's doing this.
You Dance With Me futari de
You dance with me, the two of us
Aira!
Yume no tobira akete susumou
Let's open and go into the door of dreams
Rhythm-chan!
Lovely Rainbow!
I must say, that was quite a jump!
Such height.
Still...
This may not go well as expected.
Rhythm-chan! Are you feeling better?
Aira... You...
Give it your best, Rhythm-chan!
Amamiya Rhythm, please come to the stage.
I have to jump high. It's the least I can do to repay her!
Stardust Shower!
Such height.
Yeah.
And beautiful, too.
That was an incredible jump, Rhythm-chan!
Aira...
May I have your attention, please.
The judges are discussing some pressing matters.
The issue at hand is whether or not to extend Harune Aira's allotted time.
Please forgive the delay.
Huh?!
It's to be expected.
She will be penalized, or worse, disqualified.
That's not fair!
She will probably be disqualified for breaking the rules.
For real?
Her jump was awesome! Right?
Yeah!
Grade her fairly!
W-What's going on?
Everyone wants to defend Aira!
They're defending me?
Quiet, please.
Quiet please, everyone.
The judges have finished their deliberations.
Under normal circumstances, Harune Aira would have been disqualified for her transgressions,
but due to the Tiara Cup's belief that it serves as a guide for future Prism Queens, they have decided to show leniency.
Instead, they will subtract two hundred carats from her final score.
We really caught a break there!
We will now announce the cumulative scores for our first two events.
In first place, we have Amamiya Rhythm with 2670 carats.
Tied for first place, we have Harune Aira with 2670 carats.
We did it!
We're in the finals!
The top twenty contestants will advance to the finals.
This tournament is too low-leveled!
Mia Reina Karin
Aira-chan and Rhythm-chan both made it to the finals!
Yeah.
Who do you think's gonna win?
I think Rhythm-chan's going to win.
Yeah.
Her sense for fashion has improved immeasurably since she started!
We've got a long road ahead of us! Let's try some more hairstyles!
Pretty Remake!
I changed the bunny ears to a more grown-up ribbon style.
I added a ribbon with sparkles. I think it helps me look more feminine.
I used a decorative hairband. I think it makes me look more energetic and appealing.
Today's outfits are perfect!
Today's Lesson Don't forget about your Hairstyle!
You can change the impression your outfit makes...
just by changing your hairstyle!
I hope we've leveled up today.
Memory Pass
Aim to be a Prism Queen!!
Yes! We've leveled up!
We did it!
They'll be practicing you-know-what next week!
You-know-what?
You'll have to wait and see!
To become the girl you want to be...
...you'll need a Prism Jump...
...and Pretty Rhythm...
...Aurora Dream!
See you next week!
