I'm excited to see how the decorations turn out for the party venue.

Me too. I knew that Ichika and the others were making flower and star decorations and finding many old photos of us.

But to think that was all for the party decorations? I was so surprised.

I wonder what it will look like...

My heart's racing.

With those three, you can be sure they'll pull off just the sort of thing you hoped for.

You're right! Hehe, I'm so excited.

By the way, how are you, Honami? Have you had a good year?

I have. Every day felt so fulfilling, and yet so much went by in the blink of an eye.

We started performing at shows, spending more time practicing, trying our hand at writing our own songs and working hard on selling tickets.

It was a year of putting everything into whatever task was put in front of me.

Sounds about right. Just recently, you had some intense training to prove that Saku person wrong.

Hehe. Yes, that was a very intense month.

Shiho was so serious about performing then. I wanted so badly to keep up with her that I practiced really intensely...

And you got really buff and cracked your drumsticks.

Hah! You're starting to sound like Saki, Miku.

"Hehe."

"Hehe."

I think you've grown a lot, Honami. Not just as a performer, but as a person too.

Oh, really?

Yeah. Like you just said, a bunch of stuff happened between you and Shiho over ticket quotas right?

I don't know if that's what started it, but you seem less constrained somehow.

Don't you feel like you've changed a little?

I...

I think I'm braver than before. I can express my thoughts and feelings better now.

I'm happy that you can recognize it for yourself, Honami.

Oh... Look, Honami. All these people are here to celebrate you.

Huh...

Woah! Y-You're right!

Um... Hello!

So many people have shown up...!

I'm so happy! Thank you...!

I wonder how can I show you my gratitude...

Hona, we're ready now! We've been making a Special Birthday Version of the classroom for you!

Oh, what good timing!

Would you guys mind if we did a small performance?

Huh, a performance?

We were just saying hello to all these people who've shown up for Honami's birthday.

And I was thinking we could perform for them. What do you think?

Cool idea! Let's do it!

Yeah. I'd also like to say thank you to everyone who's come here for Honami.

I'm in too. Everyone's here after all.

Thank you, everyone!

We've actually been working on a song, so I'd like you all to be the first to hear it.

Let's go!

Lost and Found!
