Yua of the Idol Group SDR5 learns that it'll be disbanded. Driving down the highway in the back of Geek's pickup truck, Takuya contacts Yumiko, but their call cuts out midway. Yuki then awakens from a bad dream and the group notice that they're not only going in circles, but are really sent back in time. At that moment, the group witness Yua be confronted by her idol mates about the disbandment of their group. Geek being a fan of the group wants to intervene, however, he's stopped by Takuya as the situation they're in is direr. Yumiko finds the pool of blood left by Kouta and one of his shoes, but he's nowhere to be found. Distraught by the revelation, she tries to contact Takuya, but is unable to get through to him. Takuya and the others try to escape the loop their in, but they fail. Once Yua separates from her group Geek follows her and when he finds her, approaches her sitting on a bench by a boatyard. He tries to talk with Yua who immediately walks away after her identity is exposed. It's noted that the concert that she was supposed to perform in was canceled due to her being "sick", which became controversial with her fans as they didn't buy it. To Geek's deduction, they've somehow landed in a time-rift of the sort and resolves himself to help Yua. On the other hand, Takuya decides that Yuki and he should try to escape the time rift. Meanwhile, the SDR5 members distraught over the missing Yua wonder what they'll do now that the concert doors are open and the fans want a performance. They then learn from someone named Atsuko, that their manager Seiji notified her to tell the group that the show will be canceled due to Yua being sick. Yua sitting by the boatyard is confronted by Geek who tries to convince her to cancel an event occurring three months in the future. This is in order to create a paradox to prevent her idol group from being caught in the "Lost" incident. Elsewhere, Takuya and Yuki riding on his motorbike talk about the time rift they're in was caused by Tama-Shi. Immediately they find out they're unable to escape the time loop, as they end up back where they started. Back to Geek and Yua, the two of them talk, and in the end, Yua discloses that it was her producer's plan for the group to disappear. Geek regroups with Takuya and Yumiko to disclose this news to him and he believes it's connected to the "Lost" incident. Learning this, Takuya goes to seek out the producer named Seiji, and Yuki lead by Geek confronts Yua and takes her to the concert area. While doing this, Yuki convinces Yua to have faith in herself and which gives Yua the self-confidence to perform at the concert. Finally returned to their own time, they learn that they weren't able to change the past. This leaves Geek depressed and wishes to be left alone, so Takuya and Yuki go on ahead and Yuki laments over the losses due to the "Lost" incident. Eventually, they're confronted by Souma who knocks the two off the motorbike. After a brief talk between Yuki and Souma, the confronter tries to kill Takuya by twisting his arm with his Tama-shi. In retaliation, Yuki creates a massive supernova with her powers creating a massive crater in its wake. (Source: Wikipedia)
