Thank you...!!
How was that?!
It's the perfect finale, no?!
Yes, that was a wonderful scene.
I can tell that you've all given this show everything you have. I'm sure it'll go great tomorrow.
KAITO...
I was really, really, really, super duper touched by it too!!!!
Hehe♪
Thanks, Miku☆
But I'm a little bummed out about not being able to be in it when it really happens!! It's gonna be sooo good!!
Yeah, me too♪
Oh, that reminds me☆ Tsukasa, would it be okay if we helped you out tomorrow?
Help us out? Sure, but how?
Hehe. Well, we can actually...☆
What?! Y-You can do that...?!
But this will mean that...
Yes, I see. If we time it properly, we just might be able to pull it off. It may be worth trying just for its sheer impact.
Yay☆ Then just leave everything to us tomorrow♪
Tomorrow's finally the big day.
All of you, make sure to take breaks when you can!
I agree. We need to go into tomorrow in the best shape possible.
Yeah, we'll be ready for it.
You guys... Thank you so much!
This isn't just for you, Emu...
Huh?
Yes, this all began with lending you a hand when you needed our help...
But it became much clearer after I saw how Seiryuin, the other troupes and all the staff felt.
This park is “a place that makes everyone smile.” None of us want that to change. Not ever...
I want this park to be that kind of place too.
She's right.
This park made each of us all smile...
I agree with Nene. I want this park to be a place that's full of smiles and laughter.
Nene... Rui...!
And... Um... I'm so sorry, Tsukasa!
Huh? Why are you apologizing?
I know that you wanted to win the Show Contest really bad and I ended up ruining that for you...
Oh, is that all?
Like I said before, it's okay!
Well, I do feel a little sad...!
*Sob*... I know...!!
I'm really, really, really sorry!!
How many times are they gonna go through this...?
It's good that they're being honest with each other.
But hold on there, Emu!
I am sad, but that doesn't matter!
The fact that I've taken a big step towards true stardom hasn't changed at all!
Huh?
Yes, winning the contest and appearing in a commercial as its star would've made my fame skyrocket...!
But being a star also means knowing that making everybody smile and laugh takes top priority!
As long as I do that, I will become a star! So I'll say it again, it's completely okay!
Tsukasa...
Hehe. Such is our troupe leader...
He knew exactly what needed to be said.
Alright, we've had a long day of practicing and rehearsing. Shall we head home and rest up for tomorrow?
Yeah, let's go.
We're going to make this show the greatest thing ever tomorrow!
Yeah!
Okay, see you all then!
Mr. Riley, we appreciate you coming all this way today.
Yes, I've been looking forward to today.
I simply cannot wait to see this park of yours.
Thank you very much.
Also, we were aware that you spoke Japanese, but not quite to this degree.
I've been coming to Japan for quite a while now for both business and pleasure. Your grandfather, Rakunosuke, was also a very kind host.
I see.
I never knew that you and our family have been connected for so long.
Now, we'd like to introduce you to the chairman of the Otori Group, Konosuke Otori.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
I am Konosuke Otori.
It's you...! Your father told me so much about you! It's an honor to finally meet someone like you who's found success in so many different fields!
I am honored to meet you as well.
I'm hoping that we'll be able to have a leisurely stroll around our park today.
If you will, Mr. Riley...
We'd like to begin here. After you, sir...!
And this section will be at the center of the renovations. This monument isn't scheduled to be completed for another two years, but the rest will be ready in time...
Yes, everything seems to be in order.
Next, we'd like for you to see the show stages. Today also happens to be the final day of the Show Contest, so each troupe will be giving their best possible performances.
The Phoenix Stage in particular is one we are very proud of! I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Wonderful!
There was even a time when I hoped to become an actor, so I absolutely love these kinds of shows!
That dream didn't quite pan out, but that experience has stayed with me since...
Hm?
What's with this music...?!
“Hello, everyone...!!”
“Thank you for coming to Phoenix Wonderland today!!”
“As a little surprise, we'll be putting on a special show that you'll only be able to see today!”
Hah! I must say, well played!
Having me see a show just before we get to one of the stages is quite impressive!
Huh? Y-Yes!
Of course...
What special show?
Was that on the schedule?
No, this is news to me too...
Contact whoever's in charge.
And find the person making these announcements. They're using the PA system, so they must be in the control room.
What's going on?
Is something about to start?
I wonder what they meant by their “special show”? They didn't even say where we could see it...
“Our special show's about to start and we'll be using this entire park as the stage!!”
“We ask that you please gather outside the Neo Phoenix Castle!”
What is the meaning of this show...?
