H-Huh?
I'm in a different place now...?
But I was watching RAD WEEKEND just a second ago...
Where am I...?
Oh...!
(Even during today's event, I couldn't get a good response...)
(I've been practicing and running every day. I'm even projecting my voice better, so I feel like my singing skills have improved...)
(But I still haven't been able to reach anyone yet.)
(Wait, is this Akito from when he was in...?)
(How do I become a better singer?)
At this rate, I'm never going to surpass RAD WEEKEND...
♪ーー! ♪ーー!!
Huh...?
(Whoever's performing is maintaining a perfect pitch like a machine, but hardly singing by the book... If anything, it sounds pretty rough. Almost like...)
(Seriously, who's singing...?)
(I don't recognize him...
And he doesn't seem all that used to singing.)
(He seems pretty affluent, but he's singing like there's no tomorrow...)
ーー♪ ーー~~~!
(I can't look away for some reason...)
This is how those two first met.
(I didn't know Akito went over to watch Toya sing every day like this.)
(Oh...!)
Now I'm really interested.
Hey, how would you like to try singing together?
With you...?
♪ーーーー! ♪ーーーー!!
(...!)
(This sensation...)
(My body feels like it's on fire now for some reason...)
(What's going on...?)
(I knew it...
Singing together like this has made it all clear.)
(He's a good singer, but that's not all...)
♪ーー!! ♪ーーーー~~~!!
(With him, just maybe...)
That's so awesome...!
They've got these serious looks on their faces, but they seem to be having a lot of fun together...!
♪ーー...!
...
Hey, promise to come back soon.
I'll be waiting for you right here.
♪ーー! ♪ーーーー!
♪ーー...
Hey, there you are...
You wanted to sing, right...?
♪ーー! ♪ーーーー!
Akito, about this part...
I feel like we should sing it together instead of you going solo.
Yeah, that might make it sound more powerful. Let's give it a try...
Toya, that reminds me.
How about we try entering into an event?
♪ーー! ♪ーーーー~~~!!
(This really is hard to believe...)
(I feel like I'm able to do so much better when I sing with him.)
(His perfect pitch and ability to maintain a steady rhythm are important, but he understands what a song is about and uses his voice to hit you with it...)
(My guess is he's doing that all subconsciously...)
(It might not be just a dream anymore...)
(With him, just maybe. We could surpass RAD WEEKEND...)
Hey, wanna try surpassing RAD WEEKEND with me...?
Huh...?
RAD WEEKEND...?
Yeah, RAD WEEKEND was...
(So this is how Akito and Toya started pursuing this dream...)
(Singing both brought them together and helped them become good friends...)
(They really seem like the best partners for one another, but I guess they saw something in each other right off the bat.)
Whoa?! It's happening again...!
