(Wow, Azusawa's beyond legit...

Now I feel embarrassed about saying that she might repeat what she did during STAY GOLDEN.)

(Still, what an atmosphere...!

We can't let what she created go to waste!)

We're not letting her hog all the glory!

Let's hear it, you guys! Show us what you got!

Huff... Huff... Huff...

Kohane...!

That was an insane performance.

You should rest until it's our turn, so try to get your voice back by then!

*Gasp*

Okay...! Thanks, Shinonome.

The way you sang gave the rest of us so much energy! It's totally fine if you lie down, so try to recover some strength before it's you guys' turn!

No, I'm okay...!

I kind of want to watch everyone from backstage.

...

Kohane! That was awesome...!

Here, take this! You need to stay hydrated!

Oh, thanks. I really appreciate it...

Next is...this guy!

(...?!

Whoa, this place...! It's totally on fire!)

(Azusawa created this absolutely electric atmosphere for us, and EVER sent everyone flying sky high.)

(Now it's my turn, and...

I'm gonna do things my way!)

I know you guys can do better than that! Let's have some fun! It's time to get in the groove and dance to the rhythm!

♪——————! ————!!

When did Kotaro get this good?!

I really love the way he sings! It's so easy to dance to!

(I'm projecting my voice way better than usual! The crowd's totally into it and I'm nailing every word of the lyrics! This is amazing!)

Tono! Take it away!

(Haha. What a show. I've never experienced this kind of atmosphere before. It's so hot that just breathing is making my throat dry out.)

(Still, I can't get what Kohane did out of my mind. I've been desperately wanting to sing after witnessing that...)

(I may be at my limit already...)

You can all still keep going, right?

Let's keep this energy up!

♪————!! ————!! ————!!

Whoa! Tono's gotten better too!

Wait, has he always been this aggressive? His presence is almost overwhelming...!

Azusawa, we're up soon. How do you feel?

I'm all warmed up and ready to sing whenever!

...

Hey, An...

Hm? What's up...?

You're ready too, right?

Yeah. Thanks, Akito...

I'm all set to go, so you can count on me!

I mean, don't forget what we promised. We're gonna totally blow the roof off this place, right?!

Oh, you remembered...

Next is our headliners...!

Take it away, Vivid BAD SQUAD!

Alright, here we go...!

We're gonna make it so everyone here goes home saying this was the best event ever! Including the owner!

Give it everything you've got!

Akito! You gotta do better than that time you were here with Shepard!

You know I will!

(This atmosphere... It's almost unprecedented... I couldn't tell at all from backstage.)

(This pressure... What an incredible feeling...!)

(I've never felt this much energy before...)

(Man! All I wanna do right now is sing my lungs out!)

(I don't understand...

It's like I can see the faces of everyone in the audience even better now.)

(They're all sweaty and exhausted... But I also get the sense that they want us to sing and energize this place even more!)

Here we go! Try to keep up, you guys!

♪————! ————!!

(I'm okay. Because there's only one thing that I need to do here...!)

(Don't think about anything else besides singing...!)

♪————————!!

(It's so nice to have An here next to me. I feel like we can reach all the people I couldn't when I was by myself...)

(Right now... We can do anything...!)

(Kohane's so good right now... Scary good...)

(But for some reason...

Singing together like this... I feel like we can do anything.)

♪————!! ————!!

(The way Azusawa's singing...

It's like she's trying to push us forward.)

(Are we all managing to hang on?

I'm not sure, but this energy... It's so compelling, yet comfortable.)

(I've always wondered how far Kohane could go, but I didn't realize she could be this good a singer...)

(And the way she's singing... She's trying to push us higher.)

(Which means there's only one thing we need to do. We need to use this energy to fly even higher!)

♪——————!

(Shinonome's jumped out in front...

The way he's singing... It has such a powerful allure...!)

(And I've never seen such an excited audience. More excited than when I sang by myself.)

(I thought I'd used up all of my energy, but I'm still going. And I'm feeling hotter and hotter.)

(I want to go as high as I can!

And I want to keep going even higher!)

♪———————!!

This event's totally off the hook...!

Yeah! Everyone has been so good!

(This event...

It might actually be able to match RADder's...!)

(Also, that kid...

He's come a long way to be able to put on something like this.)

I think you were right, Ken...

...

(We're seeing their true capabilities here.)

(A part of me has been wondering this whole time...)

If anyone's going to surpass what happened that night, I'd have to say...

...

(I met that girl for the first time after she performed at STAY GOLDEN. I saw a tiny part of Nagi in her, but it was fragmented and incomplete...)

(Which caught my attention.

This all began with me being curious.)

The next generation, huh...?

(Hah...

I guess a part of me felt the same way as Nagi...)

(But...)

(Not all of me...)

(That night... I decided to take our music and carry it even further...)

Taiga...?

*Sigh*

I guess it's my own fault for half-heartedly getting mixed up in other people's business.

I'm going, Ken.

Are you sure...?

You know this all too well...

I don't like getting involved while not being able to fully commit myself. And there's one last thing that I need to do now.

So, I'm going to get that out of the way and return to what I was doing.

I see.

Huff... Huff...

Wow, I'm parched...!

I don't think I can even walk!

Yeah, I'm exhausted too...

Actually, I think we're all totally spent.

Yes, we'll need to keep working on our stamina.

I agree... Still, I believe we put on our best performance to date during this event.

And we definitely have Azusawa to thank for that...

Huff... Huff... Huff...

She seems the most exhausted out of all of us. But I guess she should be since she sang the most.

You did so awesome, Kohane...!

Oh. Hehe. An...

I did it...

And it's because you guys all said that you believed in me.

Also, An, you telling me that you wanted to hear me at my best especially helped...

I was pretty afraid of singing all by myself, but I'm so glad that I did... Thanks for believing in me, An!

...

An? Is something wrong...?

Oh...

No, I'm just really tired!

I'm gonna go outside to get some fresh air...

Oh, okay... See you in a bit.

How awesome was that event?!

And that girl in the beginning! She was so good!

Yeah, but so was everyone else!

And the atmosphere they created... They're really trying to surpass RAD WEEKEND, right?

At this rate, they might actually succeed!

*Gasp*

Hey, did you guys just...?

It sounds like we may actually succeed...

Yeah, we've definitely made some progress, but we can't let up here...

But that's really nice to hear...

I hope we can keep up this momentum.

(Oh, also...

I hope Taiga and An's dad enjoyed the show.)

(I can't say if we were able to surpass the first event Taiga and his team put on...)

(But for now, as long as everyone enjoyed our event...)

I only have a few days left before I leave.

Before that...

That girl needs to know. What was “most important” to us was nothing so cute.
