Okay, why don't we call things here for today?

Nice work, everyone!

Tomorrow's finally Shibuya Festa!

Right.

I'm a little nervous since we won't be playing in front of our usual kind of audience.

I understand how you feel. It probably is going to feel a bit different. This reminds me of the first time we performed with anemone...

Yeah, that was definitely a hard one to the gut.

Hehe. And yet, you were all ultimately able to get through to that audience with your song, yes?

So, I'm sure this performance will go just fine. As long as you give it your best, I'm sure people will be willing to listen.

Yes, I agree.

We don't know anything about the other bands or what the people you play for are actually like, but it's clear that your performances have improved significantly. You should feel confident in your abilities.

Miku, Luka...

Thank you...

You're both right. We promise to stand proud as we play.

Yeah! Let's really believe in ourselves and give it absolutely everything we've got!

But I'm still surprised by how you suggested that we play at Shibuya Festa, Honami.

I was under the impression that you weren't all that interested in these sorts of events.

Haha... Festivals in Shibuya do have a tendency to scare me away, and I definitely hesitated when I saw the poster for it...

But I realized that it would be a chance for us to have more people hear our songs.

The songs you write really are wonderful, Saki, while Ichika and Shiho just continue to become better performers...

So I think it's a shame that we've only been able to play at live houses. I want more people to hear our incredible music, which led me to suggest that we play at this event.

Hona...!

I agree. We've definitely been getting better as a band, so it is a good idea for us to try performing at various types of venues...

Thank you for suggesting this, Honami.

Yeah!

Let's do our best to really get our name out there!

Hehe. Yes, let's.

Oh, I almost forgot. The flyers advertising that we'll be playing at Shibuya Festa are done.

Flyers?

Yes, I saw that bands appearing at the festival are allowed to advertise themselves using their own flyers, so I decided to make one for us. How does it look...?

Whoa! This looks awesome!

A navy blue base with a star-studded background. I really like how it represents us so well.

Yeah, it does.

Your illustration's also pretty good, Saki.

Isn't it?

Hehe. C'mon, praise me some more.

Okay, calm down.

I know what happens when you get showered with praise.

But your art really packs a punch, Honami. You asking to draw things yourself probably surprised me the most.

Oh, um... So...

I'm still embarrassed by what I draw...

But Ena said that my art left a strong impression on her, so it seemed like a good way for others to see who we really are.

And I'm sure others are gonna remember! I mean, your art has such a unique flavor to it!

Yes, it does.

Like this cute, little dandelion.

Huh? Miku, I thought that was a hedgehog...

Um... It's a lion...

It's supposed to be the Leo from Leo/need...

What?!

I-I'm so sorry!

It looked like it was covered in spikes to me...!

Hehe. That's okay, you two.

We can start handing these flyers out tomorrow, get our name out there and present everybody with the best show we can!

Yeah!

♪————!

Okay...

How was that?

Really amazing!

You were in more sync than usual for the dance routine too! I sort of just ended up staring the whole time!

Me too!

And you've all improved so much. That training camp you girls did must be paying off.

You in particular, Minori.

You've become such a better performer!

I have?!

Oh, thank goodness...

Hehe. Way to go, Minori!

And it's not just you.

We still have some small adjustments to make, but we're definitely all running on all cylinders now!

I agree. If we keep this up, I'm sure everyone at both Shibuya Festa and our solo show will really enjoy our performances.

Yeah!

And tomorrow's the big day.

As the morning's opening act too...

I'm so glad we got this opportunity.

Yeah, how do we ever thank Nanamin for this? I never thought that we'd get to perform at a big, outdoor venue right before our solo show!

Hehe. Me neither.

So, let's do our best tomorrow to spread and inspire hope in everyone across Shibuya from that stage tomorrow!

Yeah!

That's the spirit!

Actually, maybe a little too much spirit...

Hehe. I understand the feeling.

It'll be my first performance in quite a while at an outdoor venue. A big one at that.

R-Right...!

I'm so excited!

Oh, that reminds me!

Please wait here just one second!

Shizuku?

Thank you for waiting!

How about we all have some of these together?

Are these manjus...?

Yes! I bought them yesterday thinking that we must all be tired after working so hard during practices.

Oh, that's right... MEIKO and KAITO did say that sweets can help one relax.

See? We really have been working hard these past few days, so wouldn't it be nice to relax while having some nice sweets?

Yes, that does sound nice...

And we won't be able to perform well if we're too tired.

Then, let's get ready for tomorrow by having some of Shizuku's manjus!

Okay!

Feel free to have as many as you like. That includes you two as well, Miku, Rin.

Wow, thanks!

Then without further ado♪

Yeah, this is pretty relaxing...

Thank you, Shizuku.

Hehe. I'm glad you're all enjoying them so much. I hope we can go into tomorrow feeling relaxed and refreshed.

Oh, I know...!

What if we had some manjus before our show tomorrow?

Th-They might suck out all the water from our mouths...

Oh, that's right...

Then, what if I brought over some tea and lay down a tarp for us to...

We won't have time for a picnic before we take the stage!

Alright...

Let's start our final meeting.

Movement is gonna be the most important part of this performance, so keep that in mind.

Yes, that's right. The venue for tomorrow's event, Shibuya Festa, has a very large stage... Our usual performance is going to feel fairly small by comparison.

Which means we're gonna need to make use of the entire stage somehow!

Yeah!

It's not my strongest suit, but I promise to do my best...!

To be fair, I don't think we have much to worry about. We've been practicing pretty hard, so it's not like the quality of our performance is gonna drop all of a sudden just because we're playing somewhere new.

Look at you with the big talk.

But I'm in complete agreement!

Me too...!

We should be able to give it everything we have like we normally do!

Exactly.

So, once we've returned, let's... Hm?

Sorry to interrupt your meeting.

Here's your iced coffee and iced tea.

Much appreciated, MEIKO.

If anything, we should be thanking you more for allowing us to hold our meetings here.

Hehe. You don't need to thank me.

Especially if it means getting to make drinks for all of you like this...

Also, I really enjoy seeing all of you during these sorts of serious discussions.

They're fun to watch since these meetings lead to better performances.

Yeah!

If anything, you guys should drop by more often!

Hehe. Thank you all so much.

Oh, speaking of which...

Akito, your friend... Uh, Shota? He invited you to perform during tomorrow's event, right?

It's so cool how you guys were invited to perform again after the show you put on during the Summer Festival!

Yes, it is.

And you'll be headlining again, correct?

Yes.

But we're just the last of the amateurs that are going to be performing.

Regardless, we're going to be the ones that really get the crowd going tomorrow.

Hehe. You all certainly sound motivated.

Hehe. Especially Akito.

Is it because certain seniors of ours are performing right after us?

Oh, that's right. Wonderlands×Showtime is performing directly after us...!

Yeah, I'd be lying if I said otherwise...

I can all but guarantee that they're going to put on a show like no other, so we've gotta do everything we can to compete...

Yes, I agree.

Let's borrow some of their energy to do our possible best.

Yeah.

So, all of you, get ready to give it everything you've got tomorrow!

Yeah!

Yes!

At last?!

At long last!!

Tomorrow's the big day!!

Hehe. All of you seem much more excited than usual.

That's because we finally get to do our show tomorrow! I can't wait to show everyone my acting prowess!

A-Also, Emu's probably excited because Rui's going to unveil his newest device here.

New device?

The thing that sent Tsukasa flying just now!

Oh, is that what caused Tsukasa to soar so high through the sky?! It was that device?!

Yeah, and it's pretty impressive.

Yes, it's become even easier and safer to fly! Well done, Rui!

Hehe. I feel honored.

But a device can only shine as brightly as its user.

I am able to keep making these devices because you're willing to place your faith in me, Tsukasa.

Rui...

So, I'll be looking forward to seeing good results tomorrow.

Of course!

I, Tsukasa Tenma, future star, shall show you tomorrow just how great...!

Just let me know if you ever feel like flying even a little bit higher.

Hey...!

I wasn't finished with my line!

Why did you interrupt me with something so disturbing?!

Oh, I have a suggestion!

Wanna prepare for our show tomorrow by imagining how well it's gonna go?! We can close our eyes and rehearse it in our heads!

A rehearsal in our heads? Where's this coming from?

Minori told me the other day that it helps her a lot!

Minori...? Oh, you mean Hanasato?

I suppose so. I've also heard that believing that you'll succeed leads to actual success.

Yeah, it sounds interesting. Let's give it a try.

Woohoo! Alright, close your eyes and...

Start!

Hehehe...

Hm? Emu, why are you giggling...?

I don't remember your character laughing during the opening scene...

The way Tsukasa soared through the sky just now was so wonderhoy☆

Wait, what are you imagining?! What about your own character?! You're just reminiscing at this point!

Oh, you two...

Hehe...

(They all seem very motivated. I believe we can look forward to another good show.)
