<Whoa...! Look at all the cherry blossoms!>
<Yes, they're lovely!
In full bloom no less.>
What do you think, Len?
Does this place work?
<Yeah! There's cherry blossoms left and right! Miku and the others are gonna love this!>
<I really appreciate it, Akito!
I can't thank you enough for showing us this!>
No problem. Anyway, when do you want to have this picnic?
<Well, we managed to find a nice spot, so ideally before these cherry blossoms fall off their branches!>
Got it. I'll let An know that.
I'm sure she's been trying to come up with some ideas for this too.
<Alright, why don't we start getting everything together for it while we wait?>
<Yeah!>
This is great, Len.
I'm glad we managed to find a nice spot for our picnic.
Me too! Thanks for tagging along, KAITO!
You're welcome. I'm also glad that I was able to see some cherry blossoms for myself. I can't wait until our actual picnic.
But we've got a lot of work to do if we're all gonna have fun!
I'll see if MEIKO's okay with making some food for our picnic!
KAITO, can you go find Rin and everyone else to tell them about what we'll be doing?
Huh? If you're going to MEIKO's place, then I...
I'm counting on you!
Haha. Someone's certainly excited.
Alright, looks like I have no choice but to look for everyone.
Okay, the tarp's all laid out, we took all the paper plates and chopsticks to the terrace, so that leaves...
Len, the sandwiches are ready.
Mind taking them to the terrace?
Okay...! Hey, these look great!
Hehe. You've been hard at work getting everything ready, so you're more than welcome to sneak in a bite if you like.
R-Really?!
No, I won't... I should wait until we're all together and ready to say, “Cheers!”
Hehe. You're such a wonderful host, Len.
MEIKO, Len.
I rounded up the others.
Hello! Thank you for inviting me today♪
Wow! The terrace looks so amazing!
The tables and chairs are all gone.
There's just a piece of tarp on the ground.
Yup! KAITO said this would feel more like a real picnic under some cherry blossom trees.
So have a seat, you guys!
I'll go see how Akito and the others are doing!
Len seems awfully excited about this.
I know. He even went out of his way to have Akito and the others bring over paper plates and such to give our picnic a more “authentic” feel.
Wait, he did that all on his own?
I prepared the food, but Len essentially handled everything else.
I see.
We'll have to thank him later.
Yes, we should!
I'm back!
They said they're all set!
Thank you, Len.
Alright, shall we?
Okay♪
Welcome, everyone!
<Thank you for having us.>
<Whoa...!
Look at all the cherry blossom trees!>
<I know! They're so beautiful!>
<I love how the petals are dancing in the air. Len found this place, right?>
<Yes, that's right.
Thank you for finding us such a lovely spot, Len.>
<Hehe. We only found this place because Akito was nice enough to show us around.>
<So thanks a bunch, Akito!>
You're welcome.
Anyway, wanna get started?
Everyone, grab your drinks!
<We're all set here, An.>
So are we.
Alright, Len!
Do the honors!
<Me? Are you sure? Um...>
<Here's to all these cherry blossoms blooming on this warm spring day! Cheers!>
Cheers!
I'll get the food out.
<Oh, those rice balls are so colorful.>
Yeah, some are seasoned with green herbs, some with eggs and some with pink starch!
<Cool! But why do they all look slightly different?>
They turned out differently based on who made them.
The four of us borrowed the kitchen at Weekend Garage this morning to make these.
<You did?! Oh, now I get it. Was this your first time making rice balls, Toya?>
Yes, I enjoyed it very much.
Oh, MEIKO, you have a lot too.
Braised foods, fried foods and even inari sushi.
<Hehe. I made some in advance just for today. However, my piece de resistance has to be my omelets.>
<I went through quite a few iterations to get the flavor just right.>
<Nom... Oh, yes.
These omelets are superb. Nom nom...>
<KAITO! How many did you just take?!>
<Quit hogging them! No more for you.>
<W-Wait!>
<I'm guessing KAITO can't get enough of them...>
<Look who's talking. How much fried chicken have you eaten, Luka? Here, have some inari sushi instead.>
<No, my delicious chicken!>
Hehe.
Haha.
<Haha!>
(Looks like they're all having fun, and we got to see some cherry blossoms together. I'm so glad we decided to do this!)
<Len, what would you like to eat?
I'll get you anything from this box.>
<You will? Alright, I'll have some Salisbury steaks!>
