Suzuki

Since you've come here,
that means you'll be joining our idol group, right?

Miku

...Yes, I'm definitely considering it♪

Suzuki

That's great~~!
My promotion is no longer just a dream—

Suzuki

Oh—! *Ahem, ahem!*

Miku

(Seriously, why do I have to be pushed around by someone this incompetent?)

Miku

(No... no, calm down.
The reason I came here is...)

Miku

I'm so glad you scouted me, Suzuki-san~

Miku

Honestly, I was just caught up in the whole live house thing.
It's not like I chose to be.

Suzuki

I thought so~!
Miku-san, you've got both looks and brains!

Suzuki

There's absolutely no way tomorrow's live will sell out.
Switching to our side now is the smart move!

Miku

What's going to happen to that live house
after tomorrow's live ends?

Suzuki

Our specialized department is planning to begin formal negotiations!

Miku

Hehe... So that's how it was.

Miku

Raika-chan and the others seemed to be working really hard, though.

Suzuki

I feel terrible about it, but business is business!

Miku

(...See? Adults are all unfair.)

Miku

(But... that's exactly why.)

Raika

I'll carry all the time we spent working hard together
and see this through to the very end.

Raika

So everyone, don't worry, just relax
and leave it to me!

Chieri

Chieri's heading to the station to sell tickets right now!

Raika

I'll go with you!
Let's talk to every single person we pass!

Yomogi

I-I'll try posting more about it on
social media and our website...!

Shizuku

Yomogi, would you show me how as well?

Miku

...

Miku

Suzuki-san.

Miku

How about making a deal... with me?

Background

Miku

—Hello?
Sorry I couldn't pick up earlier.

Miku

Me?
I'm selling tickets near school right now.

Miku

(It's true...I really am touching my ear.)

Miku

Yeah... I see. Everyone's at the station.
Yomogi-san is... Yeah, that makes sense.

Miku

I'll probably... be a little late getting back.
Don't wait up. See you.

Miku

Yori

Geez, Raika and the other part-timers...
Looks like they're planning to come back right before we open the doors.

Yomogi

Ugh... *Sniff*...

Yori

If you're gonna mope around like that,
you should have gone to sell tickets too~

Yomogi

That's just impossible for me~~... I'm different from everyone else...

Yomogi

Scary things are just scary, and I can't change no matter how much I want to...
I'll probably stay weak and feeble for the rest of my life...

Yori

*Sigh*...

Raika

I'm back!!
Sorry I cut it so close!

Shizuku

Miku, Yomogi, sorry I'm late.

Chieri

Now, subordinates, get the equipment ready—

Yori

Miku's not here yet.
But the prep's all done~ Yomogi did it all while crying.

Raika

Huh!? Why are you crying!?

Yomogi

A good-for-nothing like me
can only do this much... I'm sooorry...

Raika

What are you talking about? You're amazing, Yomogi!
It must've been tough doing all that prep by yourself!

Chieri

You also did the online promotion!
You should be prouder of yourself!

Yomogi

But it only sold several tickets...
And the hand-selling at the station also...

Yomogi

We couldn't fill the place!
That is all my fault, isn't it...!

Yomogi

A weak bottom-tier human like me is dragging everyone down,
I'm so, so sorry...!!

Chieri

S-Still...
we can't put all the blame on you, Yomogi.

Chieri

Chieri is really more capable than this.
Chieri should have been able to do so much more...

Shizuku

I couldn't fill it either...
Even if we do the live today... will we really be able to protect our home...?

Raika

Everyone...

Raika

I didn't want to let you make that face...
I'm really sorry...!

Raika

This is all my fault...!
If only I hadn't said that to Suzuki-san...!

Miku

You're sounding pretty unsure of yourselves, huh?
I'm actually looking forward to it~

Raika

Miku! Where have you been!?

Miku

Same as you.
A last-ditch effort... I only managed to sell two more, though.

Miku

But everyone, you look like you've given up
even before the live show starts... That's disappointing~

Raika

It's not their fault!

Raika

It was me... I promised Suzuki-san
we'd fill the place today without asking...!

Chieri

Raika...!

Raika

Even though my family bond deepened so much
and everyone tried so hard, we still couldn't reach it.

Raika

I didn't realize there were things I just couldn't reach.
So... everyone, I'm really—

Miku

Before you apologize,
Raika-chan, did you think we couldn't fill this place from the beginning?

Raika

No, I didn't!
I really think we can!

Raika

It's just... I realized that trying to do it in
just one week was too reckless.

Raika

Time was... not enough.

Miku

That's right...
If we had three more months, we could definitely fill it, right?

Raika

Huh? Yeah, we can, but... why—

Miku

If that's the case, then there's only one thing to do now, right?

Miku

A lot of guests are gonna come see us,
way more than the last live show.

Miku

Don't you want to show the true strength of our family?

Everyone

...!!

Raika

Miku...!
That's right!

Raika

We're still a family finding our feet,
but we've got a whole lot of love!

Raika

Let's make it the best live ever, and get the biggest cheers...!

Raika

And whatever's still missing, we'll blow it away
with our family love!!

Chieri

Seriously...
Miku and Raika, you're saying whatever you want.

Chieri

You have Chieri on your side!!
With Chieri's drums, we don't lack anything!

Shizuku

I'll contribute through my performance too.
That much, at least, I am confident in.

Yomogi

Ugh~~ Everyone's making up their minds too fast, and it's scary...!!

Yomogi

It's scary, but, but...!!
I'm gonna give it my all~~~!! Waaaah!!

Miku

Hehe... Being able to say that much is enough.

Raika

Everyone... thanks!

Raika

Alright, we're fired up!!
Now, let's get ready!

Raika

Let's give it everything we've got, my family!!

Everyone

Yes!!
Okay!
Yeah.

Raika

...

Suzuki

(Huh... The cheers are reaching all the way outside...?
In just one week, that can't be...)

Raika

We're just getting started!!
Cherie!!

Chieri

(How's that!!
Chieri's drum solo is incredible, right!!)

Chieri

Go ahead and let out a huge cheer!!

Raika

Shizuku, Yomogi!
Show them what you've got!!

Shizuku

(Well then... let's go, Yomogi.)

Background

Yomogi

(Ugh~~ I am so sorry for the trouble~~~~!!)

Background

Suzuki

Wh-What even is this...!?
This is less of a live and more of an improv battle...!?

Raika

Come on, Miku, let's unleash it together!
A twin guitar assault that burns the soul!!

Miku

(What a lame move...!!
This is so embarrassing!)

Raika

Let's keep this energy going all the way to the last song~~~!!

The Audience

Waaaaah!!

Raika

—♪

Raika

(Ah, this is the sight I've dreamed of so many times...)

Raika

(The shining faces of my family,
the crowd of guests, and our sounds.)

Background

Raika

(I didn't notice it the first time I stood here...!
Every time our sounds collide, the heat rises...!)

Background

Raika

(This place is way more intense than I imagined... hundreds of times more...!)

Raika

(So this is what it feels like to perform a live at our "home"...!!)

Miku

...

Raika

(This heat will never cool down!
I won't let it!)

Raika

(I was born to protect this!!
So, no matter what it takes, I will...!!)

Raika

*Pant*... *Pant*... Thank you very much!

The Audience

Waaaaah!!

Suzuki

Raika-san, and everyone.
Good work at the live show.

Raika

Suzuki-san, good work.

Miku

...

Yomogi

G-G-Good work...!

Raika

...Thank you all for coming to our live today.

Raika

Please, let me say something.

Suzuki

Well, I suppose so.
I'll listen properly.

Raika

Suzuki-san, I'm really sorry for everything until now...!

Everyone

...!?

Suzuki

You bowed your head...!

Raika

Suzuki-san, I was rude to you,
and I broke my promise to fill the place. I'm sorry.

Raika

I understand now. It turned out this way
because I didn't think things through properly.

Raika

About that, you were right, Suzuki-san.

Raika

But our family is evolving.
And our home is still evolving too!

Raika

If I had just a little more time, I'm sure I could fill it!
I know it's a lot to ask, but...

Raika

Please give me time until summer!
Could you give me one more chance!?

Raika

Please!!

Suzuki

...

Chieri

Chieri won't let Raika be the only one to bow!

Chieri

Chieri too... Hmph!!
Chieri bows too!!

Shizuku

From me as well... Please.

Yomogi

With my cheap head, I'll bow as many times as it takes, so please...!!

Miku

...

Miku

Suzuki-san... I'm asking you too. Please.

Raika

Everyone...

Raika

Suzuki-san, please...!!

Suzuki

...You've changed remarkably since last week.
Both in your ability to draw a crowd and in how much you've grown.

Raika

!

Suzuki

I'll hold off on negotiations for this property until summer.
I've seen enough to know there's still room for consideration.

Raika

Th-thank you so much!!

Chieri

Yes~~~!!!

Yomogi

We got another chance...
Thank goodness... I'm so, so relieved...!

Shizuku

Raika. So we can hold lives here again, right?

Raika

Yeah! Let's work hard, so this place can stay
our "home" through this summer, and beyond!!

Miku

Suzuki-san...

Suzuki

I understand.
And you, Miku-san, do you understand?

Miku

Yes. Don't worry.

Raika

Miku~~! Come over here!
Cherie says she came up with a plan to fill the place by summer!

Chieri

You're definitely gonna be amazed by how much of a genius Chieri is!

Miku

Yeah, I'm coming~
