Shiho...
You'll have to spend even more time practicing, rehearsing and fine tuning your sound to actually make it.
Going shopping after school or visiting PXL together won't be possible anymore...
(Shiho must've said that because she knows that there's a ton of stuff that I want to do...)
(She's not wrong either. I missed out on so much while I was in the hospital...)
(But I still...)
Commitment...
(It's so hard to say what'll happen if we do decide to do this...)
(But Shiho's been thinking about this her entire life.)
(She's never wavered. She always has that look in her eye...)
I believe that deciding to do something means you're choosing to give up on something else at the same time.
So you have to be ready to accept that people will dislike you for your decisions. That's normal.
What I'm trying to say is... Just do what you think is right.
(What I think is right...?)
I think...
...
(Becoming a pro...)
(Can I really commit to that?)
(Is it okay for someone that's lived a completely ordinary life to just turn around and say that...?)
(But...)
So that my music can really get them going too...
But maybe it has something to do with constantly trying to understand what your music is about...?
Understanding our music...
All of the equipment looks good.
Thanks, everyone.
We're all set to put on an awesome show.
(All that's left is to wait for...)
Iori...
...
(If only she just took the plunge and...)
No, I promised myself that I'd stop thinking about that...
(Nothing good would probably have happened if I forced her back into playing for us...)
(We're not doing this for fun anymore. We have to always be at our best now as pros...)
Iori...
Oh... Hi, Hinomori...
Thanks for stopping by during your day off like this.
Would you mind playing for us again?
Isn't Mio supposed to be coming...?
She may still be a little lost, but she'll at the very least come tell you how she feels.
So let's wait just a little longer...
No, we don't have that kind of time. We need to keep moving forward...
And I don't want her to suffer any more than she has to...
But...
It'll make things easier for me if she doesn't show up...
...
Now, back our little discussion.
If you do decide that you want to join us, I'd like to introduce you to everyone as our new bassist at the end of the show.
How's that sound...?
...
I...
Wait...!
Huh...?
You guys...!
Hey, it's authorized personnel only here!
Um...
We're very sorry about barging in like this...
But please, give us a moment with her...
Please!
...
Fine. What is it?
Thank you...
There's something we need to tell Shiho.
Before you make your decision, please listen to what we have to say first...
