...

Alright, let's summarize what we've come up with so far.

First, we've got spreading hope to others and increasing our media exposure.

We also have, umm...

Whether or not we can appear as a group! That's really important!

Right. A lot of people will be hearing about MORE MORE JUMP! for the very first time, so we'll want their first impression of us to be that we're a proper idol group.

Then there was the matter of leaving enough time for us to keep doing streams.

We've already had to reduce the number we do, so I fear that our fans are going to feel just that much more disappointed if we go any further...

I mean, spreading hope to others through our streams has always been a big deal to us, so we should keep trying to do as many as we can.

What else is there...?

(I think we've covered just about everything...)

(But...)

But are there any offers that actually cover all those points?

I doubt there are going to be any that cover all of them, so we might want to order them by importance.

With spreading hope to others for sure taking the top spot...

Followed by increasing our media exposure. Doing those two things will be the quickest way for us to realize our dream.

Yes, I agree with that order.

Understood.

Then, I'll place those two things at the forefront, while also taking the other criteria we've come up with into consideration...

...

Is something wrong, Haruka?

Sorry, but...

Would it be alright if I gave this some more thought?

Huh...?

I agree with what you said in terms of those two things taking top priority, Airi. I don't see anything wrong with that ordering.

But...

I feel like we're still missing something.

We are?

Yeah...

I'm not sure how to put it into words...

But when I ask myself if choosing work like this will really lead to us making our dream come true, I feel like we're still missing some key piece...

A key piece...

Sorry. I know what I'm saying is really vague...

And I know I have a habit of overthinking things in these sorts of situations.

What are you talking about?

Your attentiveness has saved our skins a bunch of times already!

She's right. If there's something on your mind, Haruka, then I'd also like to think about it with you.

So, let's take our time and try to come up with a solution that we can all agree on.

Yeah, I'm sure we'll be able to figure out what we're missing if we all put our heads together!

Thank you all...

That being said, we shouldn't keep these people waiting too long. We'll need to set ourselves a deadline, and then decide which offers to accept...

So, let's give ourselves until tomorrow.

I promise to have my answer by then.

Sounds good.

We'll also take another hard look at things!

For now, let's adjourn this meeting...

You all have that magazine interview scheduled, so let's start getting ready to head over!

What?! It's already that late?!

L-Lemme go get my notebook! It has all my answers to their questions in it!

Oh, didn't you just put it back in your bag?

*Gasp*

Y-You're right...!

Geez, relax, will you?

I still can't figure it out...

(I still don't think what Airi said is wrong.)

(But...)

(Is it really okay for us to make decisions based on just these criteria?)

(Will we be able to stand there? Will our fans be able to come see us...?)

(On that stage...)

Oh...

(Come to think of it, what criteria did we use as ASRUN when it came to work?)

(Mr. Hiiragi always...)
