Alright, that should be good for today.

Ichika

Okay. But sorry about this, everyone.

I appreciate you all sticking around for this.

Character icon
Honami

Don't worry about it! I wanted to work on my part some more as well, so it wasn't all just you!

4
Character icon
Saki

Yeah, same here! And I also like seeing how gung-ho you've been for band stuff lately, Ichi!

5
Character icon
Ichika

Really? I guess I wanted to put Nene's singing tips into practice more than I realized.

6
Character icon
Ichika

Thanks to her, I feel like I'm getting closer to singing the way I've been imagining that I could.

7
Character icon
Saki

Totally! I mean today...

You were GLORIOUS! Right, Shiho?

8
Character icon
Shiho

Yeah...

The next day
Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy - Class 1-A

Character icon
Shiho

Morning...

10
Character icon
Minori

Oh, Shiho! Good morning!

11
Character icon
Kohane

Hi, Shiho! We were just talking about MORE MORE JUMP!'s stream from yesterday.

12
Character icon
Shiho

Ah, that.

13
Character icon
Minori

Wait... Did you watch it too, Shiho?!

Please tell me what you thought! Pretty please!

14
Character icon
Kohane

Sure! Where to start...

15
Character icon
Shiho

(Minori looks like she's been having a lot of fun lately. Almost as much as Saki when she's really riding high.)

16
Character icon
Shiho

(And she's freelancing as an idol on top of that. I don't know anything about idols but that has to be hard work.)

17
Character icon
Minori

Thanks, Kohane!

I really appreciate your feedback!

18
Character icon
Minori

Oh, right! Do you have any suggestions or requests for our next video?

19
Character icon
Kohane

If you're taking requests, I'd love to see a video where you share tips for getting better at singing, or talk about what you do for vocal training!

20
Character icon
Shiho

(Kohane's changed too...

And I don't just mean her hairstyle either...)

21
Character icon
Shiho

(She said that she and her friends are working towards the same goal now...)

22
Character icon
Shiho

You formed a group with some students from Kamiyama, right?

23
Character icon
Kohane

That's right! They're amazing singers and have way more experience than me. That's why I have to work twice as hard to catch up to them!

24
Character icon
Shiho

I see...

25
Character icon
Shiho

(But she seems like she's enjoying it...)

26
Character icon
Shiho

(If you really set your mind on something,

I guess it can be fun, even if it's difficult.)

27
Character icon
Shiho

(It's like Ichika and these two have this sparkle to them...)

28
Character icon
Shiho

(And what am I doing with my life...? I'm at a crossroads and don't know which way to go...)

29
Character icon
Shiho

(I didn't use to be like that...

Before Saki returned from the hospital,

these choices came easily to me...)

30
Character icon
???

—! Shiho...!

31
Character icon
Shiho

Huh? Saki...?!

32
Character icon
Saki

Are you okay?

You look like a deflated balloon...

33
Character icon
Shiho

No, I'm okay. I was just thinking about...

Wait, what are you doing here?

34
Character icon
Saki

I, um... I've got math next...

But I think I left my textbook at home...

35
Character icon
Saki

I beg you, Shiho!

Please let me borrow yours!

36
Character icon
Shiho

That's it?

Um, here...

37
Character icon
Saki

Thaaanks!

You're my savior!

38
Character icon
Shiho

Okay, okay! And quit it with the hugs!

The bell's ringing, so get back to class!

39
Character icon
Saki

Oh, right! I'll bring it straight back after I'm done!

40
Character icon
Teacher

Next problem... Minori, can you solve this one?

41
Character icon
Minori

Y-Yes! Let's see...

42
Character icon
Shiho

...

43
Character icon
Shiho

(Of course I want to go pro...

But...)

44
Character icon
Shiho

(I can't focus on this class at all...)

45
Character icon
Saki

Shiho! Thanks for lending me your textbook!

46
Character icon
Shiho

No problem.

Make sure to bring your own next time.

47
Character icon
Saki

I will! I've gotta go to P.E. now.

See you after school, Shiho!

48
Character icon
Shiho

Yeah, later.

She's always in a hurry... Hm, what's this?

49
Character icon
Shiho

There's something stuck between the pages.

I hope it's not a worksheet she forgot...

50
Character icon
Shiho

No, wait. It's a page from her notebook.

Probably just doodles... Huh?

51
Character icon
Saki

To Shiho,

Going to PXL together was loads of fun♪

52
Character icon
Saki

I drew a picture so that you can remember how great it was♪

53
Character icon
Shiho

She drew a scene from Phoenix Wonderland...

Is that Tsukasa on stage?

54
Character icon
Shiho

Saki...

She spent the lesson doodling instead of learning...

55
Character icon
Shiho

(Well, she made it for me so...

I guess I should keep it.)
