As an aside, it looks like Crunchyroll went full retard with the songs in their translation of episode 1 of Next Stage. Complete official lyrics for three of the four songs in that episode can be found in two seconds through Google... so why did the translator decide to do them by ear?

I only checked Pioneer, but there were laughable mistakes such as mishearing 都会 as 世界 or mistaking 初のトライ for 明日のトライ. They must have secured the rights to the songs, so why didn't someone think to use the official lyrics?


Concerning the Kiraras, I believe Kakazu Yumi (the voice of Tsubasa and the Kirara) confirmed at one point that the Kiraras say the name of their associated member. You can pretty clearly hear Mimori's going "mimori mi~" this episode; same with Chieri's. Pay attention to the scene where she goes onstage to do impressions. "Chieri ri~"
