Dream Festival! R

DearDream claimed victory at Dream Festival and won their debut. Their activities were going smoothly when the legendary idol Haruto Mikami told them, "Just because you made your debut as idols doesn`t make you idols." Later, while working at the same location as the older rival unit ACE, they have an experience that makes those words echo in their hearts. The door is about to open for them to become "true idols"!

KUROFUNE made their CD debut through a special exception, but Keigo can`t deny his anxiety and struggles to take hold of something that will establish them as idols. In the midst of all this, he overhears Yuto singing a song to himself and decides that that`s the ticket to their future, but for some reason Yuto isn`t on board...

Very little time remains before their concert that`ll be streamed around the world, but Keigo and Yuto are still at odds. Shin is worried about them and takes action. At last, Yuto`s past is revealed... but who is this man that he wants to send out his song to?

The members of DearDream and KUROFUNE are assigned to a special project in which they capture full coverage of Sankishi. While some of the seven members are awed by the talents and lifestyles of Susa and Saotome, the ones following Mikami witness an unbelievable secret. To protect his secret, Junya leads the others in making a certain promise...

Shin has been gearing up for his first starring role in a drama in five years, but the filming overlaps with his idol work, leaving him unable to concentrate on acting. Even the lead, a child actor named Sota, goes out of his way to encourage him. Then Shin receives some advice from Chikage...

Itsuki and Chizuru have formed a new unit of their own. Chizuru is certain it`ll work out well since they`re such good friends, but Yuzuru warns him that he may soon start to think of Itsuki as an enemy. Meanwhile, Itsuki becomes busy with his new work on the side...

As the other members of DearDream become busy with individual projects, Kanade is still searching for something he can do. He talks to the members of their senpai unit ACE about his concerns, and they tell him about a secret reference room hidden in the D-Four office building...

The five members of DearDream prepare for their first job together in a long time, and it happens to be a fan meeting! They`re all excited to utilize their newfound individual talents to show the fans a good time, but they have unexpected trouble working in harmony. So their leader, Junya, makes a suggestion...

Ryo, the one who taught music to Yuto and then disappeared, suddenly appears in Yuto`s life again. Ryo greets him casually, but Yuto gets angry and leaves. Thinking of Yuto`s feelings, Keigo meets with Ryo...

"Sankishi is breaking up?!" As the shocking news rattles the Wide Show, Sankishi announces that they will withdraw their participation in Dream Fes. DearDream and KUROFUNE are determined not to lose out to their senior artists in the battle to take Sankishi`s place as the final act at the festival, but their feelings are complicated...

DearDream began working even harder after being entrusted with the final position in the Dream Fes lineup, but then Kanade was injured in an accident the day before the event. What method DearDream choose to go beyond the ultimate while making up for the loss of Kanade?! Everything is for the fans` smiles...!

The members of DearDream and KUROFUNE look back on all the best moments on their path from forming their units to becoming true idols in this live special!
