In #4, streamed last week, the individual rankings of the "on-site voting" for the group battle, where survival was at stake, were revealed.

In #5, to be streamed tonight, the first ranking announcement ceremony will finally take place. Only the top 50 out of 101 trainees will advance to the next stage.

Who will survive among the 50, and who will shine as the glorious No. 1? That cruel and dramatic moment of fate will be captured.
In addition, special projects showcasing the trainees' individuality will be streamed during the ranking announcement. In the traditional "Dance Battle" of the series, INI's Masaya Kimura will appear as a special MC.

Furthermore, the "Visual No.1" chosen by 101 trainees will also be announced. Trainees who voted will reveal their usual feelings, such as "I fell in love at first sight," and the scene where the selected trainee performs a heartfelt 'kyun' line is a must-see.

Viewers can get a glimpse into the daily lives of the trainees, different from their training, such as their night routines and friendly chats in their rooms.
