Yakuza 5/Part 3 Chapter 1

Backstage Dreams (, Yume no Butaiura, Lit. "Behind-the-Scenes of Dreams") is the first chapter of Part 3 of Yakuza 5, and the ninth chapter overall.
==Plot==
In 2011, Haruka Sawamura overhears Mirei Park convince her adoptive father Kiryu to cut ties with his adoptive children and let her make Haruka an idol in exchange for funding Morning Glory Orphanage.
In Sotenbori, Osaka, Haruka is working in the city's pop idol circuit in 2012, regularly performing shows, appearing on TV and practicing for the upcoming finals of the Princess League talent contest, which will earn her a major label record deal if she wins. Helping her are her manager Park, her vocal coach Misa Yamaura, her publicist Hiroshi Horie, and her dance instructor Kan Ogita.
Haruka participates in the first round of the Princess League finals against T-Set, a pop duo made up by Mai Sanada and Azusa Osawa, who are signed onto the rival Osaka Talents Agency. Despite having less experience than T-Set, she narrowly manages to beat them on the first round.
A few days later, Ogita is fired as Haruka's dance instructor after repeatedly complaining to Park that he doesn't have enough time to properly train her for the dance-heavy second round of the finals. Needing a quick replacement, Park sends Haruka and Horie to seek out Christina, a famous dance instructor who'd recently arrived in Osaka and who only trains pupils he thinks have potential. The two locate Christina and, after Haruka auditions for him, they convince him to join the company as her new teacher.
