That was great, Minori!

I really liked your singing and dancing.

Th-Thanks!

Hehe. I wasn't sure what would happen after I made so many mistakes early on...

I'm just wondering if I was able to spread any hope to anyone watching...

Yeah, I'm sure you did...

You had this idol aura about you too! I really think you've taken a big step towards catching up with the other girls in your group!

R-Really?!

Hehe. I sure hope so...!

Good for you, Minori...

I'm glad I got to perform here today too. I feel like I was able to show just how appreciative I am...

Yeah, me too.

I doubt I'll ever forget what I experienced today.

I think we all feel the same way about today...!

Yeah...!

Thank you so much, everyone!

Azusawa's performance was really something else.

Yeah, the others were pretty good too. They all found a way to get this crowd going.

Yeah, I should've signed up for this too!

Oh, there you all are...!

Kohane...!

You were off the hook today!

I agree. Well done, Azusawa.

Don't you have anything to say, Akito?

I mean, she did what she usually does. Just stay focused for the next event, okay?

Oh, is that how it's gonna be...?

Who was the showering with praise just a second ago?

You tell me.

Hehe...

Quit laughing, Toya!

Hehe. Thank you, all of you!

I'll promise to do my best during our next event too!

Ichi, that was awesome!

Like, really super awesome!

Thanks...!

I don't know what to say.

I was a little nervous but it ended up being a worthwhile experience.

S-So... How did I do...?

Really really really really super wonderhoy! I got goosebumps everywhere!

She's right! And we should expect no less from our songstress! Everyone was absolutely blown away by your performance!

Th-Thanks...

(But I still have a lot left to work on, including some things I discovered today.)

(Still, I sang up there all by myself, so I feel like I took a big step towards becoming a musical actress...)

...

(My heart won't stop. It almost feels like I'm dreaming too.)

(I actually did a performance all on my own...)

Hey, found her! Minori!

We've been looking all over for you!

Oh, hi...!

Sorry, my mind's still trying to process what just happened...

We all understand exactly how you feel. After all, this was your very first solo performance.

Y-You do...?

Yes, and you did great...!

Like a true idol.

H-Haruka...!

But there's still a lot we need to work on. We'll get started on that when we get back!

Eep...

Hehe. It was still a wonderful performance. Your smile and optimism likely helped inspire hope in everyone that came to watch today.

Yeah, true.

I can't give it a 100, but it warrants at least an 80.

Really...?!

I know I'm still nowhere near you guys yet, but I feel like I took a big step forward today...!

And I hope we can keep moving forward as a group!

I'm sure we will.

We wouldn't be “MORE MORE JUMP!” without you here, Minori.

Hey, Airi!

Oh, Ena, perfect timing!

You should meet Minori.

Oh, that's right!

Wait, huh?

Everyone, allow me to introduce you all to our star idol, Minori Hanasato!

H-Hello!

My name is Minori Hanasato!

It's nice to meet you all!

Nice to meet you too! I'm Ena Shinonome. Airi's told me all about you.

Oh, me next!

I'm Mizuki Akiyama!

Nice to meet you, Minori!

We saw your performance too!

It was so awesome! You really shined up there! Starting today, I'm officially your fan!

Th-Thank you so much!

W-Wait, my fan...?!

Of course! How can I not become your fan after seeing you sing?!

I'll make sure to check out your old streams too! And when you make it big, I can say that it was all thanks to me!

Wait, that's your angle...?

Oh, Minori, I almost forgot.

Meet Kanade and Mafuyu. They're also a part of our little music group.

Nice to meet you. My name is Mafuyu Asahina. Your performance today was incredible, Hanasato. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your stream from now on.

Oh, um... I'm Kanade Yoisaki...

I really liked your performance too.

It was so... Bright...

*Gasp*

Thank you very much...!

(My dance didn't go as planned, and I'm still nowhere near everyone else's level yet...)

(But I performed in front of a lot of people and even got praised for my performance... As an idol...!)

(I want to keep practicing and keep spreading hope with Haruka and the others to all our fans.)

Alright!

I'm gonna keep trying more and more and more!
