It's summer!
There's watermelons! Ice cream!
And barbecues!
Sounds like you just want to eat!
Well, duh!
Did you guys put on your sunscreen?
Yup!
Yes!
An idol's skin is their life!
I always immediately turn bright red.
This is so fun and exciting.
Even Rintaro looks like he's having fun.
Mm.
Also, Rintaro, your arms are huge!
Look at those muscles!
Ooh!
And actually, I've been working out, too.
Hey! That's public indecency!
Jeez, would you guys calm down? It's already hot as is!
You're all so full of energy.
And so, it's begun. Ready, and...
F/ACE's Super Exciting Summer Vacation!
Yay!
Wow, you're all so unique. Maybe you guys don't even need a script.
Thank you.
I can't believe you're actually directing one of F/ACE's shows, Arimoto-san.
Freelance Director
Yuu Arimoto
Arimoto-san.
Apparently, he's a famous director in the business.
Actually, I'm pretty interested in Tamon-kun.
When a guy like that messes up,
it makes for great TV.
There are a total of fifteen staff members.
The only ones who know about Tamon-kun's real nature
are Fujita-san and myself.
Depending on what's featured, the agency might have to reject some footage.
I'm just kidding. We'll do our jobs and get plenty of footage.
Tamon-kun...
I hope he can stay Hottiehara-kun for three days and two nights.
After I graduate high school, I'm gonna get my license,
and I'll be the one driving next year!
Well, I look forward to that.
Hey!! It's just like sweeet magic!! Aha!
Hi, it's me! The one with that killer smile!
Stealing your gaze with a shocking style!
Smooth as ever, I escort you
And this voice, seducing you
Ah, come on, let's dance; I'm aiming straight for your heart
I am your ace darlin'
Confidence? Yeah, I've got plenty
Please Please
Whisper just to me, call my name
You're too popular, it drives me crazy and I'm not okay
But I'm sorry, losing's not my thing
Hey, girl
Look this way!
I see your smile, smile, smile, I wanna make it all mine
Crash, crash, crash, our special connection shines
Dance, dance, our world is non-stop groovin'
I'll show you my perfect A-side, side, side
And my private B-side, side, side; I'll show you everything
So take my hand and let's roll
Sweet Sweet Sweet magic!!
Sweetie honey Sweetie honey
It's a spell that makes your heart race
We can't go back
You're falling in love with me, c'mon!
Sweetie honey
Sweet Sweet Sweet magic!!
First comes rock! Rock, paper, scissors!
Aw, I lost.
F/ACE and the Summer Vacation
Natsuki, you'll be the ref.
Okay!
Okay, let's split up into teams.
I mustn't look directly at heaven on earth.
Here I go!
Is this the Louvre for beautiful faces?!
The British Museum of fine bodies?!
That's one point.
The Shoso-in of bursting smiles?!
My very own personal World Expo has begun!
And cut!
Sorry about that!
Are you hurt at all?
Um... are you okay?

Here you go.
Thanks.
I have to do my best
to make sure Keito-kun doesn't decide that I'm a crazy fan.
Kinoshita-san, could you take this?
Right away!
That chick is only fawning over Tamon as usual...
I guess it's better than acting like that towards anyone.
We're going to start rolling again!
Okay!
I want someone like that... to have feelings for me!
Tamon!
It's all good!
Dang it!
Have feelings for me?
Great job, everyone.
We'll resume shooting at 6 PM,
so everyone take a break until then.
Okay!
We'll be heading back to our rooms now.
Great job, everyone!
You, too!
Great job!
Kinoshita-san.
Yes?
I'm sure the boys are all tired, so could you go check on them?
Yes, sir!
It's me, Kinoshita.
I've brought some snacks...
Balloon Flower
Did you come to sneak into our beds?
I'd be less obvious if I did.
Stop crying! God, you're annoying!
Hngh
I'm so sorry!
What happened?
My face just won't move anymore...
I was just yelling at them both because they didn't want to leave their room.
We're still on day one! What about the shoot after this?
Pull yourselves together!
Waaah! He yelled at me!
I said shut up, you dumbass!
Please stop!
It's not like his face muscles are going to recover just by you yelling at him!
Well, my face is exhausted from keeping a slight smile on my face the whole time,
so what am I supposed to do?!
Ta
A foldout fan?!
Tamon-kun Smile Please!!
Tamon
Tamon-kun, please smile!
Smile! Please!
Yes, oh, smile!
If it's for you, my priceless smile will cost you 0 yen.
Let's keep this up just a little longer!
Are you guys with me, my bros?
Of course.
You don't need to tell us twice.
Perfectly cooked.
This looks so good!
How many skewers do you want, Rintaro?
Okay!
Hey, can I roast some marshmallows?
That's a dessert, so not yet.
Let's roast some veggies that are great for your skin.
Boo, you meanie.
You're older than me, so please don't say such childish things.
All right, you two. Let's eat in peace, okay?
Okay.
Everyone's so professional.
I can't believe they're the same people from earlier.
This one's ready.
How is it, Rintaro? Is it good?
Yeah. It's good.
And cut! That's a wrap on day one!
Thank you very much!
I'll go ahead and take these.
Oh, I'll help, too!
Hey, thanks!
Then could you put these away in the storage shed behind the gym?
Right!
Today's shoot was so much fun!
I'm looking forward to tomorrow, too!
I'm also...
That bath felt great.
Hello?
It's me.
Who...?
I said it's me, damn it! Figure it out!
You forgot your damn fan, so come to the room now to get it!
You've got ten seconds.
Th-That selfish gorilla...
It's me, Kinoshita.
Come in.
Wha—?!
Why are you dressed like that?!
Well, you said to come over now.
I'm sorry that I'm not exactly presentable right now.
I-I-I never said you were unpresentable!
Where's Gloomyhara-san?
Probably taking a bath. How would I know?!
Ta
Tamon
Come over here!
Hmph!
I'm sorry. I brought so many with me that I didn't notice I was missing one.
You brought more than one?!
Yes. I tried to account for every issue Gloomyhara-san could run into during camp
and prepared all the variations I could.
Don't Die
Don't Run Away
Cameras Aren't Scary
Gross! You're so, so creepily gross!
Because of these?
Damn it! She's so tenacious!
No one is this dedicated!
Hey!
Keito-kun?!
That woman didn't sneak in here, did she?
Balloon Flower
Get lost.
I guess I don't see her. But be careful.
Fans are the devil.
Seriously, what the hell happened?
Um...
I figured if he saw you, it'd cause you trouble.
Oh... Thank you very much...
Seriously...
Why's it gotta be him and not me?
By "him," do you mean Tamon-kun?
Huh?! U-Uh, I...
I'm not sure how to respond.
My feelings for Tamon-kun are just so great that it's hard to explain,
so can I just read these sutras I compiled over the last two years?
What the hell is that?!
I don't even want to hear a sentence of that!
If you're done here, then get the hell out!
You big dummy!
I can't believe he called me over just for this.
Kinoshita-san?!
Ta
Tamon
Huh? Gloomyhara-san?
Why do you have that on your face?
I dislike having to bathe with other people, so I'm exhausted...
Yet you can barely keep your clothes on when you're Hottiehara-kun.
Oh, sorry you have to see me like this.
I forgot my fan and Sakaguchi-san summoned me.
Ouri-kun did?
Is that Darkhara-san?!
I just went to get my fan!
Er, no, I mean...
Were you okay?
I'm sorry?
I asked if you'd come along...
Thinking back on it now, it was really annoying of me to ask.
I'm sorry that I was only thinking of myself.
What?
I know this work is new to you. Have you been doing okay?
Has Ouri-kun been impossible to deal with at all?
Has Keito-kun been mean again?
Oh, I'm totally fine!
You just need to worry about yourself, Gloomyhara-san!
That's why I came along as your housekeeper.
Farewell!
The most nutritious part of a fish is their bones.
Yup. Like calcium and iron.
Sardines and mackerel are actually quite delicious down to their bones.
I don't like bones, though.
Why couldn't they be born boneless?
I'll eat every bit of 'em!
That's just red snapper, so it's not going to work!
Wait, really?
And
Cut
And cut!
Fortune
Big Curse
Let's see some PDA!
This is the last scene for day two! We'll be shooting a test of courage!
Let's all give it our best!
Can someone who's free go check on the speakers in storage?
Yes! I can go check!
Could you split up into groups of two and three?
Is everything ready?
Yes, sir!
I can't seem to find them...
Did I check the wrong place?
Huh?
What's going on with the speakers?
I had the part-timer go check on them, but she's not back yet.
Don't have a part-timer do any final checks!
We're about to start shooting any minute!
I'll go check on her.
The speakers are in the storage shed behind the school building, right?
Yeah. There are two storage sheds, so go to the right one.
They're not in the one behind the gym!
Got it!
I'm so sorry about our staff.
What's up? Is there some kind of trouble?
I'll go look for her!
Huh?
Hey, Tamon! You better come right back!
Someone, please!
Why won't it open? At this rate, the shoot will be affected...
What should I do?
Kinoshita-san?
Gloomyhara-san?!
Thank goodness you're safe...
Gloomyhara-san.
I didn't know what I was going to do if I found you as a corpse.
Someone! Please!
Someone, please! We're in here!
What are we going to do?
What if this door never opens again
and both the shoot and show are ruined
and Kinoshita-san and I end up as mummies,
and we end up finished both socially and physically?!
It'd be fine if it were just me, but Kinoshita-san can't end up wrinkly!
I'm so sorry!
They say that I'm rejuvenating eye candy, but that doesn't actually exist!
This isn't good.
Even if the shoot resumed, he won't go back to Hottiehara-kun after this.
Please calm down. It'll be okay!
If you're missing, someone will notice immediately and come open the door.
But what if it doesn't open?
It will!
Do you see the part-timer girl?
She's not here.
Damn it, where'd they go?
Now the shoot's gonna have to pause... Oh.
I-It'll be okay! It'll be okay!
I'm sure everything will work out!
If Tamon-kun's shoot gets ruined...
You're not okay, are you, Kinoshita-san?
Huh? Th-That's not...
What?!
You must be tired, Kinoshita-san.
I'm not, though.
You are!
There's no way you could make those fans instantly either.
I figured you made them
after finding out about the training camp...
N-Now that you mention it, I might be a little tired... maybe?
I've been watching you more than you realize, Kinoshita-san...
Hey! Is someone in here?
If you're in there, say something!
Let's open the door.
We're here! We're in here!
I'm so sorry! I should've been more careful.
No! The door was broken and shut on its own!
Hey, Tamon! Are you okay?
That woman didn't try to do anything to you, did she?
What do you even mean by that?
Er, everyone... I'm sorry!
This is actually all my fault.
The storage shed behind the gym wouldn't open from the inside, right?
I actually rigged it so that it'd only open from the outside.
I wanted to get some footage of Tamon-kun genuinely being surprised.
Tee-hee!
Whut?!
You don't need to do anything like that.
We'd still make sure the show was plenty entertaining!
We'll do our very best!
I am really scared, though.
F/ACE has the absolute best members.
You can count on us.
Okay, let's do this.
Sorry to keep everyone waiting! We'll now start the test of courage shoot!
Thank you very much!
They're finally starting their final shoot.
Everything went by so fast.
There we go.
They're making you do stuff like this, too?
Tachibana-san.
Tamon doesn't like carrots, so remove those.
We don't want his real self peeking out.
Make sure the knives cut well, too.
He's insanely clumsy, so he'll get hurt otherwise.
Understood.
Ugh, he's such a handful.
You must actually really love Tamon-kun, Tachibana-san.
What?
When you compliment Tamon-kun while you're all together as F/ACE,
that's genuine, isn't it?
Why do you think that?
Because I don't think it's possible to move people's hearts with insincere words.
You have a lot of fans, Keito-kun.
Of course, you also have the most fans that are so passionate
that they're a bit insane.
Tamon-kun and Ouri-kun aren't lying
when it comes to what's the most important.
So I figured that you were probably the same way.
I...
When you're a fan, both time and money melt away instantly.
There's no time to spend anything on anyone shallow.
I'm just doing this for the money.
You sure are tall, Rintaro!
I'm super jealous. Gimme some of your height.
Everyone, please get into your outfits!
We'll be right there! Let's do our best on this last shoot, guys!
Yeah!
Watching him pisses me off.
He's more awesome than anyone when he's got his shit together.
Well, maybe you could try being a little nicer to him?
I don't need any advice from you.
I'm the leader of F/ACE, after all.
You are.
I'm gonna go finish getting changed.
Right!
Ooh!
You're so good at cooking, Keito.
I used to help out in the kitchen when I worked at a café.
Not to mention, I have five little brothers,
so I'd be in a kitchen a lot since my parents were always working.
Wait! You have five brothers?!
I've never heard that before!
What? I never told you guys?
No?!
Oh, I see.
And that's a wrap!
I didn't know what to expect when I was told
I'd be going to this training camp, but...
I think things worked out surprisingly fine
because Tamon-kun was pretty reliable.
Gloomyhara-san!
Kinoshita-san! Are you on a break?
Yes. What are you doing?
Well...
I know we're here for work, but we came all the way to the ocean,
and I was worried that you might not have gotten to do anything summery...
so I was taking pictures of the ocean.
What?
I was going to show you later...
but look.
A hermit crab...?
I'm so sorry I suck at taking pictures.
I do suck, don't I?!
You don't.
I just thought this was very much like you, Gloomyhara-san.
Th-Thank you very much.
Today, I found out why Keito-kun became an idol for the first time.
Tachibana-san?
He always mentioned that it was for money, but it's actually...
My brothers have middle school, high school,
and uni entrance exams coming up.
And um... I wanted to help out my parents a bit.
It was so his family could smile.
I want to do my best with Keito-kun as the center of F/ACE.
I'll do everything I can to support the brand new F/ACE, too!
Kinoshita-san!
So cold!
Are you okay? You should probably change before you catch a cold.
I wouldn't catch a cold from this!
I slept like a rock last night, so I'm fine!
Oh...
You're right.
Your complexion looks much better today.
Uh huh...
Na na na...
Uh huh...
I wonder what the world would look like without you
When I look back, you've always been by my side
Teaching me what "warmth" and "happiness" feel like
A speedboat sails across the endless skies
An unwavering course, a straight shot down the middle
An unbreakable red balloon found nowhere else
Is this "fate"? Or just a "coincidence"?
Like a wilted flower coming back to life
A light that shines
Through the impossibly dark night
(Light of your soul)
I wanted to grasp it
(I love you so)
So I strived for it
Wanna keep going, wanna keep growing
Bringing our flowers and dreams into full bloom
