Shoujo☆Kageki Revue Starlight Movie

Why?

We cannot be together.

This stage is for goodbye.

Good heavens. I... I...

I'm going to miss it!

But we just finally performed Starlight together.

Then what comes next?

What are our next lines?

When do you go back on stage?

Which act?

Has it already ended?

Have I missed it?

No, I haven't.

It's starting.

Just now!

Now is the time to descend from the tower.

I don't understand.

Hikari!

Pierce through me.

ME,

REBORN

With your brilliance.

Starlight, a tragedy of inevitable goodbye.

Position Zero.

I understand.

With light reborn kindling my heart, life demands fresh flesh and blood.

Sing, dance, seize,

if that be my feral instinct.

99th graduating class, Hikari Kagura.

Destiny will change.

As will the stage.

Farewell...

Claudine Saijo

Theatre du Flamme.

The famous French group recruited you.

The organizers saw me perform at the Seisho Festival,

and offered me a position.

What an honor that is.

Yes. Everyone has equal chances.

But, it's up to you to grab it.

I will let my passion lead me.

It's telling me to take this challenge.

Mahiru Tsuyuzaki

New National Opera Company

You're auditioning for a company, too.

Yes. I learned so much at this school.

Singing, acting... the meaning of a life on stage.

Okay, keep going straight!

We'll take a ten minute break,

It's my foundation.

and let's try to focus on speed while changing.

With it, I will stand on stage with the great New National Opera Company.

Everyone got that?

And bring smiles to people's faces.

Like a true star.

You're going back to Kyoto?

I've learned all there is to learn here.

Kaoruko Hanayagi

Senka Style 12th Head, Suisen Hanayagi

It's time I succeed the name.

I see.

Now then, let's have a dance.

Many times, I'd wanted to run away.

But there were so many things I only could've learned here.

So I'm not going back home. I'm starting afresh.

Oh, goodness! Bad, awful, terrible!

It must be executed perfectly!

Student number 22. Kaoruko Hanayagi.

New National Opera Company

I know I'm not good enough to join a company.

People from around the world are auditioning.

Only one in fifty get in.

But I have to start somewhere.

Yeah, I was so nervous! Tomorrow-

You're right.

Yes.

Watching everyone made me realize.

If I want to aim for the top...

Not like that.

You shouldn't make contact, but you have to act like you're going to.

Every step I take has to be the biggest I can take.

So I'm going to audition for the New National Opera Company.

Student number 15, Nana Daiba.

Nana Daiba

New National Opera Company

To stand on stage or to build it.

I didn't know about it until I came to Seisho.

The glory of being on stage together. The joy of building a stage together.

Thanks, Daiba!

I know I have to make a decision; that it'll all be over someday.

Amemiya's really in the zone, huh?

She is!

Shion has until tomorrow's kick-off party to get the first draft-

But both being on stage and building it are important to me.

I WILL finish the first draft by tomorrow!

I love them equally.

So you can't decide yet, huh?

Yes, we finished moving in yesterday.

Pleasure to be your neighbor.

Great to have you.

Hikari?

This is Karen. She's going to go to kindergarten with you.

I'm Hikari Kagura. A pleasure to meet you.

She just got a part in a play as the mean-spirited Lavinia.

She's been like this since.

A play? Wow.

Come on, say hi, Karen.

Oh, Karen.

I'm sorry.

Five years old and already acting. How impressive.

Is it?

Do you think you can become friends with her?

Scan a card!

I dunno.

How do you do?

Um, good morning.

I'm going to catch you!

Hey, wait up!

Let's play, Karen.

Karen Aijo Hikari Kagura

Hikari, you're going to trip. Be careful.

I know!

If you want the Sparkle-Bright look, a pleated skirt is nice.

I have two, so you can have one.

Wow, thanks.
