Arale(Miyako-san might be like the old me.)

Arale(I met Viola, and I felt like things were going well... And then suddenly I was treated like the bad guy.)

Arale(Everything stopped making sense.)

Arale(So, probably...)

MiyakoShe truly understands me, she's the best fan ever!

AraleThe best fan...

AraleThe best fan, huh~~~~~~~?

AraleI'm a tiny~~~~~ bit shocked, but...

AraleNo point dwelling on that now!

AraleThis time! I absolutely won't lose!

AraleWe can sing, we can talk, and we're not alone! I won't let MewType be destroyed!

AraleReliable Ricchan!

AraleNono-chan-san, with unmatched medical care skill!

AraleYuno-san-chan, the amazing AI!

AraleAnd Miyako-san the God!

AraleUmm... We're the best!

NonokaNice~~!

NonokaArale-chan's lyrics are great too~

AraleHehehe, thanks.

AraleBut personally, I feel like I'd like to stabilize the last part a little more, you know!

NonokaMm-hmm.

AraleI barely made it through this time, but if I'm not careful, I'll miss the notes~ I'll reflect on that!

AraleOh, right! Miyako-san~!

Miyako!

AraleAt the last chorus where the chord changes, I want a little pitch cue there~

Miyako...

AraleYes! That's it!

AraleHehe, thank you!

Arale...♪ It's not just about the pitch. It still feels like something's missing...

AraleA super long tone? Or maybe add another cycle to it?

Miyako...

YunoCan I have a moment?

Miyako!! Wh-What is it...?

YunoI think we could add a little more to the interlude. Now that we have two guitarists, it'll get buried in the mix if we leave it as is.

MiyakoOh, that's what you meant...

Yuno?

MiyakoNo, never mind. I'll think about it.

YunoMm, thanks.

NonokaYuuuuuuuunoooooooooo chaaaaaan!!!

YunoWa!

NonokaWhat about Nono-chan~?

YunoAhh... Even for a lead part, it was way too wild.

NonokaHehe. My inner animal came out.

YunoListen more to the rhythm guitarist.

NonokaHmm, that's tough. 'Cause Nono-chan's been playing it solo up till now~

RitsuIf you ask, I'll practice with you anytime.

NonokaRicchaaaaaaaaaaaan!!

RitsuUgh!

YunoThat sounds good.

YunoThe way everything gradually locks into place is the real thrill of being in a band.

Nonoka...

YunoWhat?

NonokaNothing. I'm glad you looked like you were having fun, Yuno-chan!

Yuno!

YunoIt's not like that...

YunoAs the number of instruments increased, the musical possibilities expanded. I simply found it interesting from an arrangement perspective.

YunoThere is no other meaning to it.

NonokaMm-hmm.

RitsuPractice time is almost over. What do we do?

AraleHuh, already?

NonokaTime flies when you're having fun~

MiyakoI'll be leaving now!

AraleOh, good work!

RitsuGood work.

NonokaHmmm...

MiyakoI wonder why no one blames me...

MiyakoIf I hadn't suggested we do a live show... We wouldn't have gotten flamed...

MiyakoNo... Dwelling on "what ifs" is just making excuses. That was my own decision. So...

MiyakoThey're just playing nice without getting to the core! They should just say, "It's all Miyako Fuji's fault!"

MiyakoAnd Arale-san is totally different in person compared to her videos...

MiyakoViola-san...

Miyako*Sigh*...

Miyako!!

MiyakoOh... It's my editor...

MiyakoHello...

Editor"Oh, Fujimi-sensei. I hope you are doing well."

Editor"The editorial department has approved the roughs you submitted, so please proceed."

MiyakoYes...

Editor"And about the submission date for the first draft, is it okay to do it as usual?"

Miyako? It's okay.

Editor"Oh, I mean, Fujimi-sensei, you seem to be busy right now..."

MiyakoOh...

Editor"It's not related to our company, so there's not much we can do. But if the schedule is really tight..."

Editor"We could manage to take about a week off from publication."

MiyakoHuh?

Miyako(I... can't even shine in manga...?)

Editor"The story has good momentum right now, so I'd love to keep it going as is, but Sensei's health comes first!"

Editor"...Sensei? Hello! Sensei!"

MiyakoI...

MiyakoI...

NonokaI sense an emergency from Miyako-chan.

NonokaI have to heal her!

Miyako...

MiyakoUm...

MiyakoDo you need something...?

NonokaTime for your checkup~

NonokaMiyako-chan, you had your "painful" face on!

MiyakoIsn't that just your imagination?

NonokaNo way, you can't fool these eyes of the renowned Dr. Nono-chan!

Miyako...

NonokaYou don't have to worry about it, okay?

Miyako!

NonokaMiyako-chan, you've been working very hard. You draw manga and play the keyboard...

NonokaNono-chan thinks you're really admirable. So don't feel down!

NonokaNono-chan will give you lots and lots of cuddles and pats!

MiyakoIt's only natural to work hard.

MiyakoAnyone could do that.

NonokaThat's not true! It's amazing that you can work hard!

MiyakoThen...

MiyakoWhy I am...!!

Nonoka? You okay?

Miyako... Never mind... I'm fine.

NonokaHmm... Miyako-chan seems to be in deep sorrow.

NonokaI shall give you a special medicine!

NonokaMmm... Smooch♡

NonokaHuh...? Miyako-chan~?

MiyakoUm...

Nonoka...

MiyakoYour position is not there, you know.

NonokaI am a guitarist.

NonokaSo...

NonokaI will express it through sounds!

AraleSu... Su-su-su-su-su...!

AraleSuper Recovery...!

NonokaHow's it...?

AraleEven if you ask me...

NonokaI name it... "The Song of Giving Hanamaru"!

NonokaIt's a song that goes, "Nobody is wrong, and everyone is already amazing just for being alive!"

NonokaSo, Miyako-chan, don't worry about the bad stuff. Let's have fun playing in the band!

Ritsu、Arale、Nonoka...

MiyakoAre you serious...?

NonokaHuh?

MiyakoSo I'm not wrong, even though I'm the one who caused all this online backlash and is currently causing everyone so much trouble?

MiyakoHeh... Heheh... Heheh... Heheheheh...

Miyako*Sigh*...

MiyakoCould you please spare me the platitudes?

MiyakoLet me tell you, the world isn't that kind. It's far more complicated.

MiyakoAnd yet you're just splashing around in the shallow end...

MiyakoIt must feel so good to force your flower-field fantasies onto others!

NonokaFlower-field...

MiyakoAm I the bad guy just because I won't go along with your cheerfulness!?

MiyakoIn reality, there are people who can't be saved by light!!

Nonoka!

MiyakoYou say all the right things, but I hate myself for not being that kind of decent person, so much that I can't help but take it out on others...

MiyakoSomeone like me...

NonokaMiyako-cha...

MiyakoI know!! I know you didn't mean any harm! And I'm the one who's wrong!

MiyakoSo please, never speak to me again...!

MiyakoI! I really hate you!!

Ritsu、Arale...

AraleAh, Yuno-san-chan—

YunoI'm quitting the band.

Ritsu、AraleHuh?

RitsuYuno-sa...

AraleHuh...

AraleHuh~~~~~~~~!!!?????

Nonoka...?

AraleD-D-Didn't Yuno-san-chan say she's quitting the band!??

RitsuY-Yeah...!

AraleThe Band!? Huh!? MewType!? Yuno-san-chan is quitting MewType!? Why!??

RitsuI don't know!

AraleAh! I'll try calling Yuno-san-chan!

RitsuThen, I'll call Ms. Manager...

AraleUmm... Waaah! Please answer the phone~!!

Ritsu...

AraleYuno-san-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!

AraleYou said you're quitting the band. Did you mean MewType!?

Arale Nakamachi

Yuno...

Yuno*Sigh*...

Yuno...

YunoWhy...

The Next Day

AraleYuno-san-chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!

AraleWhere did you go~!?

RitsuI can't contact her since yesterday...

NonokaUmm. What's going on...?

Miyako...

ManagerSorry to keep you waiting! Is everyone here?

AraleMs. Manager! Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-Yuno-chan-chan-san...! She's q-q-q-quitting MewType...!

ManagerI've heard what happened. It's about Sengoku-san, right?

AraleMmh, mmh, mmh!

ManagerUmm, but she'll probably come back in a couple of days.

Ritsu、AraleWhat? Huh?

ManagerSengoku-san has always been like that.

ManagerRather than provoking her unnecessarily right now, I think it's better to just stay calm and wait.

RitsuIs that so...

AraleI-I'll stay too, no rush...

ManagerSo that's how it is! So everyone, let's change our mindset...

Arale...

ManagerI know it's not that simple... But there is some good news, too.

ManagerGuess what!

ManagerMewType's very first tie-up has been confirmed!

ManagerIt's the ending theme song for the currently streaming program "Sakidori Culture!" for June!

AraleEnding...

ManagerWe've only done one live show, but thanks to the online backlash, we've got a ton of followers.

ManagerThat's real buzzworthiness!

ManagerLet's turn them into real fans! That's the spirit we need!

Ritsu、Arale、Nonoka...

ManagerLet's do this!

Ritsu、Arale、NonokaOh...

ManagerLet's do this!!!!!!!

Ritsu、Arale、NonokaOh, yeah!

Nonoka...

MiyakoUh, um...

Nonoka!

MiyakoI have a deadline, so I should go...

ManagerOh, good work.

RitsuGood work.

AraleGood... work...

AraleNngh... Stay... No rush here either, stay...

ManagerWell then, let's call it a day. I'll send you the tie-up details later, so make sure to check them, okay?

Nonoka...

NonokaIs Nono-chan shiny? Or smooth...?

NonokaI wonder what kind of flowers are blooming in the flower field...?

NonokaIs Nono-chan shiny?

NonokaOr smooth...?

NonokaI wonder what kind of flowers are blooming in the flower field...?

Yuno-chan

Nonoka...

MiyakoSo please, never speak to me again...!

MiyakoI! I really hate you!!

Yuno-chan

NonokaIs hate the farthest thing from love...?

NonokaYuno-chan...

Nonoka!

NonokaThe tie-up details from Ms. Manager...

NonokaMm! Lyrics: koharu...

NonokaThe former bandmate of Yuno-chan...?

NonokaI wonder why Yuno-chan quit the band...

Manager

ManagerIf the band activities are really tough for you, from the company's side, we're fine with you focusing on providing songs.

ManagerJust rest your mind for now. I've sent you the lyrics data.

Yuno(I won't be in a band anymore. So I must write songs as my job...)

Yuno(Lyrics...)

Yuno(Dreams...)

Yuno...

YunoIt's impossible...

RitsuI've brought Miyako-san here.

Miyako...

AraleOh... Ricchan, thanks~

RitsuNow, about Yuno-san...

NonokaYuno-chan turned into a little mole.

AraleA little mole?

NonokaUmm... Here~

AraleThis is...?

NonokaAs you all know, this is Yuno-chan's alt account.

AraleHuh!??

Arale"Rough," "This is rough," "This is way too rough"!??

AraleThat's a three-step conjugation of "Rough"!! I-I-Isn't this a serious matter!??

NonokaYuno-chan's mental state is as fragile as tofu~

AraleHuh?

RitsuAnd it's the silken kind.

Arale????

AraleCould this be one of those rare things that often happen?

NonokaOnce every few years, she turns into Mole Yuno-chan~

RitsuI heard about the depressive post from Nono-chan. I got worried and asked Ms. Manager about it.

RitsuThen I heard that Yuno-san had left home.

AraleLeft home!????? You mean, she has left her family!?????

NonokaHer family seem to know that~

AraleYuno-san-chan...

AraleDoes she really want to quit MewType...

Ritsu...

AraleWait, this! We're getting flamed again!? Look, "MewType Feud Rumors"...

RitsuIt's true.

AraleWhy did this happen!?

RitsuIt's the people who saw Yuno-san's post.

AraleI object! We're absolutely not in a feud...

AraleNot at all...

Miyako...

AraleNot a bit... Ugh...

MiyakoIt's my fault.

AraleHuh!??

MiyakoIn this situation, anything could become fuel for the backlash.

MiyakoIf I hadn't suggested the live show, MewType wouldn't have gotten flamed, and the feud rumors—

AraleNo! The backlash isn't your fault, Miyako-san! For me, it's absolutely not your fault at all!

Miyako!

AraleAnd I'd say it's the worst, too.

AraleMiyako-san, even if you hadn't said anything, I would've suggested the live show anyway!

AraleWhy don't you get it?

AraleSo Miyako-san, you don't need to think it's your fault at all...

AraleRicchan, you think so too, don't you?

AraleYou think so too, right?

Miyako...

RitsuArale-chan is right, Miyako-san, it's not your fault—

MiyakoPlease stop!

Ritsu!

MiyakoP-Please don't try to force everything through to suit your own convenience!

MiyakoAnd yet you completely avoid the important issue, just glossing over it to keep the peace! It's lukewarm and incredibly uncomfortable!

AraleMi, Miyako-san...

MiyakoIt just doesn't make any sense!

MiyakoI said such awful things to Miyanaga-san, and yet no one says anything! No one blames me at all!

MiyakoThen... What should I do...?

Ritsu...

Miyako...

AraleMiyako-san...!

Nonoka...

RitsuNono-chan, are you okay?

Nonoka?

RitsuUm...

NonokaNono-chan is okay, you know?

Miyako...!?

MiyakoAww... Ugh...

Miyako(I don't know what's right anymore...)

Miyako(I just hate myself more and more...)

MiyakoOh... I dropped my smartphone...

Miyako...

MiyakoViola-san...

MiyakoI miss you...
