After the Live

Sorry, I stepped outside for a bit.
It was hot in here.

Th-That's good... I thought you went home...!

Honestly, skipping the "Praise Chieri Time"
without permission? You're a troublesome subordinate!

Cherie was the first to realize that Miku was missing.
Hehe, of course!
I always keep an eye on my subordinates!

Cherie, you wanted Miku to praise you too, right~?
Suzuki
Raika-san and everyone.
Great job with the live.
Great job with the live.
Oh... Suzuki-san.
Good work.
Good work.
Watching our live changed your mind, right?
Suzuki
Honestly, that live was better than I imagined.
Hehe, of course!
Suzuki
But the problem hasn't been solved.
That's a separate issue.
That's a separate issue.
Suzuki
Attendance today was terrible.
If you keep going like this, nothing is going to change.

Things will change!
Our family, our live—everything will!

If the family changes, the home will evolve too!
Suzuki
There you go with that idealistic talk again...!
I'd like some tangible proof, you know~?

Suzuki
Honestly, kids just don't understand business, and it's a real pain.
What...!! Then if this place is filled with guests,
you will give up on that idea~?

Suzuki
Well, if you can show me you can draw a crowd,
I might consider it... But that's impossible, isn't it?
I might consider it... But that's impossible, isn't it?
Don't underestimate us, Suzuki-san~
Suzuki
What...!?
The way we are now, we could pack this place
for next weekend's live, you know~?

Raika-chan...!
Suzuki
You said it!?
Then by all means, please try it! Because that's absolutely impossible!
Then by all means, please try it! Because that's absolutely impossible!
In my family, there's no such thing as "absolutely" or "impossible~!"

If the tickets are not sold out,
I'm taking this live house for real this time!

Oh...!
You are the one I scouted before, aren't you?

Suzuki-san, please stay away from our family~!
Just go!

Suzuki

Well then, I'm looking forward to next week!

Suzuki
But... this could be useful...♪
Huh!? W-Wait!?
Did we just agree to perform again next week!?
Did we just agree to perform again next week!?
Yes... Raika-chan decided it again~
You decided it without Chieri's permission again~!
But after today's live, you thought so too, right?
That we can do this!
That we can do this!
That's not what I'm saying...!!
That's not what Chieri is saying...!!
That's not what Chieri is saying...!!
Ugh... Why are you doing this to me~!
Shizuku~ You want to perform again next week, right~?
You're looking forward to it, right?
You're looking forward to it, right?
? If it's decided, I'll do it.
See~ Don't you think Shizuku is right?
Listen to me...!!

Hey, get this cleaned up already~
The live is not over till everything's tidied up~

That Night
Everyone~ I brought snacks~!
To celebrate the success of our best family live ever,
I've got chips, chocolate, and... rice crackers too!

Th-That's a great amount of snacks...!
Hmm... there are a lot of unfamiliar snacks here.
I wonder how they taste.
I wonder how they taste.
This is no time for a casual snack party!!
Huh?
The problem with Suzuki-san just got even more complicated!
Chieri-chan is right~
If we can't sell out the tickets, this live house
might be taken away for real.
might be taken away for real.
That's true. Sorry.
I got completely distracted by the unfamiliar snacks.

I believe we were supposed to prove our drawing power...
Raika, do you have any plans?
Raika, do you have any plans?
No!!
Everyone

Ahaha, it's fine!
If family evolves, home will evolve too!

Around this time next week, we'll be having an even bigger celebration!
It's absolutely happening!

You're the one who told Suzuki-san there's no such thing as "absolutely"...!!
That's one thing, and this is another!
(That girl's hopeless.)
Raika-chan... In the first place,
isn't this the kind of problem adults should be handling?
isn't this the kind of problem adults should be handling?
Huh?
This live house is your grandma's, right?
Saying "I would go along with whatever you decide," it sounds nice,
but it kind of feels like she's just pushing responsibility onto a child.

Granny is not that kind of person!
Because she left "Nest" for me!

Left for you?
Yeah. Before Granny and others left on their trip,
"Nest" was scheduled to close.

But I begged Granny, and she managed to leave it for me.
She even went around bowing her head to many people.

"Keep going until you're satisfied, Raika! We are on your side."
That's what Granny and others said to me.

(So that means... we're being involved
because of your selfishness...!)

So, Raika's grandmother respected
what Raika wanted to do.

Yes! And Granny said, that's family...

What's wrong? You suddenly went quiet.
It's just... Granny and others said that,
but I don't know your feelings.

We're going to become a family from here on out, right?
Then I need to hear what everyone thinks about it!

Yomogi, what do you think about today's live?
After you tried it, did something change?

Huh!? Me? All of a sudden!?
Look, you said you and I are complete opposites, right?
So I want to know how you feel now, Yomogi.
So I want to know how you feel now, Yomogi.
Ugh... D-Don't stare at me like that...
I can't say anything that you would expect, Raika-san...!
I can't say anything that you would expect, Raika-san...!
I would expect?
Your eyes look like you hope that I will say,
"Performing a live was so much fun! I was so happy! I want to do it here again!"
"Performing a live was so much fun! I was so happy! I want to do it here again!"
Huh!? Look closely!
I don't have that look in my eyes!
I don't have that look in my eyes!
Gyaaah, you're too close!!
Come on, Yomogi!
At least speak your own mind with confidence!
At least speak your own mind with confidence!
You won't know what Raika thinks until you say it!
Ugh... You might be right, but...
P-Please don't laugh at me...
Yes, I promise.
Today's live...
It... It was scary the whole time!!
It... It was scary the whole time!!
For someone like me, making that much noise,
even just standing in the wing... was really, really scary... But!
even just standing in the wing... was really, really scary... But!
It was you all, standing in the spotlight confidently and playing strongly!
That was what scared me!!

I could never do something like that...!
I kept wondering why I'm so different from everyone else...

The distance between the wing and the stage,
it felt like it was as far as Japan to Brazil...

Yomogi, you wanted to be like Chieri, don't you!!
Huh!?
Chieri is always playing those huge instruments confidently!
That's what you admired, isn't it!

So that's what it was about!?
No, no, not at all~~!!
I was saying that I was scared of it...!

Yomogi's feelings...
might be close to something like "awe"...?
might be close to something like "awe"...?
Aww!?
When you deeply respect someone, it can also bring fear.
Listening to your conversation, that word just came to mind.
Listening to your conversation, that word just came to mind.
A-Amazing~~!!
Shizuku, you're so knowledgeable!
Shizuku, you're so knowledgeable!
Shizuku-chan, you know that kind of stuff.
My mother told me that a musician needs a broad education,
so she gave me a lot of books.
so she gave me a lot of books.
(So this girl went all-in on music and education...)
I respect, so I'm scared...
Is that so...

If that's true, then I was just faced
with the fact that I'm useless and weak, unlike all of you...

I see... But to me, it actually sounded
like Yomogi is moving forward.

Huh?
Yomogi, you never used to look around during a live, remember?
You said playing your own instrument was all you could manage.
You said playing your own instrument was all you could manage.
But today, you were able to watch everyone!
And you were able to think about everyone and yourself!
And you were able to think about everyone and yourself!
I think that's proof that you're moving forward, Yomogi!
Ah...
Maybe at the next live, the distance between the wings and the stage
will shrink to about the distance between Japan and America!
will shrink to about the distance between Japan and America!
Raika-san...
Ah!! Are you trying to get me to perform again!?
Huh? Yeah, maybe you're right!
It's unfair how you unconsciously try to get people to do things for you~~!
Unfair!? This is unfair...!?
Umm... To know someone's feelings is so hard...!
(I guess so.
People don't change that easily.)

(But...)
Using my brain makes me want something sweet...
Alright, let's open the snacks!
Alright, let's open the snacks!
Hey, we're not done talking yet!
Chieri hasn't approved another live!

Oh, Cherie, you don't want to perform again~?
Even though you'd get to play drums in front of a packed crowd~?

What...!!
Then, I guess I'll just take the cheers meant for you, Cherie~
I won't let you!!
The one getting the biggest cheers is Chieri!

Oh, if that's your stance...
Yes, it's a showdown!!
Let's start the Chieri Union meeting now!

This showdown means nothing if the floor's empty.
Let's think of a way to pack it full!

Okay. I'll think too.
Somehow we've ended up doing another live after all...!
And with everyone acting like this, I can't exactly say no~...
And with everyone acting like this, I can't exactly say no~...
Miku~ Do you have any good ideas?
Raika-chan... I said I would only join today's live, didn't I?
Oh, come on, Miku~
You actually want to do a little more, don't you~?
You actually want to do a little more, don't you~?

I also want to play guitar with you more, Miku~
So, please!
So, please!
Okay... I'll do it until next week.
Miku, thanks~~!
I love you!!
I love you!!
Whoa!?
Hey, leave me alone...!

(She's waving from down there... No, I'll just pretend I didn't see that.)
Suzuki
Hey, wait! Could you come out?
If you stay here, Raika-chan will get mad at you again~
Suzuki
Oh no, it won't take long at all!
This is something I'm only sharing with you, Miku-san.

Today, I came here to give this to you!
This is... a business card, and materials for an idol project?
You have asked me before,
but I'm not interested in idols...

And if I'm the one who found a gem like you, my reputation will skyrocket too... hehehe.

Please take your time and think it over!

No, hey...!
Sigh... Does she really think she's doing a good job like that...?
Hm? "A studio exclusively for idols, with fully equipped dormitories"...
(If I take this offer, I can leave the dorm.
And of course, I won't have to go back home either.)
