Taki
Umiri.
Are you free today?
Umiri
This is unusual.
I have plans.
Taki
I see.
Then it's fine.
Umiri
Once they're done, I'll be free, though.
What's your business?

Anon
What? Why?
What do you mean by new member?
Taki
Like I said, we're bringing in a new bassist.
I've already found one.
Anon
Wait, what about Soyo-san?
Taki
She's no good.
Anon
"No good"...? I don't understand what you mean!
I mean, yeah, she doesn't come to practice...
Tomori
Why?
Why is she no good...?
Taki
I talked with her.
Anon
What? You met with Soyo-san?
You should have brought us in!
Tomori
What did Soyo-chan say...?
Umiri
Sorry to keep you waiting.
If you're busy, should I come back another time?
Taki
No need. The conversation is over.
Anon
Wait a sec...!
Umiri
We haven't introduced ourselves yet, have we? I'm Umiri Yahata.
I'm currently in roughly thirty bands. If you don't mind that, then I'm happy to be here.
Umiri
Only about ten of them are active in a practical sense, though.
If you contact me a week in advance, I'll participate to the best of my ability.
Anon
Um... I'm Anon Chihaya.
This is Tomori-chan...
Umiri
Thank you for having me.
Taki
Then, let's get started.
Both of you, get ready.
Taki
Tomori? Get the mic ready.
Umiri
Hmm... I roughly understand the situation.
Taki
Hey, Umiri.
Why are you leaving without asking?
Umiri
It seems you can't yet forget my predecessor.
Umiri
Once you've reached a conclusion, please come and speak with me again.
Umiri
I'm rooting for you.
Tomori
Why did you bring the bassist...?
Taki
The band can't continue without a bass.
Tomori
What about Soyo-chan?
Taki
She isn't coming back.
Tomori
...! She promised she'd do it her whole life!
Taki
That promise was a lie!!
Anon
Explain everything properly.
What do you mean it was a lie? Did Soyo-san say she's quitting the band?
Taki
She didn't say she's quitting.
Anon
What? So, you just brought in a new person without asking anyone, Rikki?
That's crazy, isn't it? We have to make sure that Soyo-san—
Taki
She never intended to be part of a new band!
Taki
Everything she did was to try to bring CRYCHIC back!
Taki
She said that she doesn't need you or Rāna...
She just used you to tie Tomori and me together!

Soyo
Tomori...? Do you mean Tomori Takamatsu-chan ?
Soyo
She's my friend.
Soyo
Anon-chan and I are forming a band.
Do you want to be in it with us, Taki-chan?

Soyo
Anon-chan, because of you,
I was able to speak with Tomori-chan for the first time in a long time.

Soyo
Hey,
you think we can start over again?
Soyo
With the band.
Me and Tomori-chan and Taki-chan.
Background

Tomori
That's not right! Soyo-chan said we'd keep playing in the band...
Even after the live was over... So...!
Taki
What's not right?
Tomori... would you rather be part of CRYCHIC?
Taki
Is that what you mean?
If you want to play with Soyo, then that means you don't need this girl, right?
Tomori
No, everyone together...
Taki
That's impossible.
Taki
Do you want Soyo!?
Or do you want these guys!? Which is it!?
Anon
I'm going home.
Taki
Huh? What are you saying?
Anon
You don't need me, right?
Anon
Tomori-chan, you should play in CRYCHIC with Soyo-san.

Morning's greetings~
Mutsumi
Morning's greetings.
Ah...
Soyo
It's already almost summer vacation.
Oh, we have finals before that, though.
Tsukinomori Student B
I bet they'll be easy for you, Soyo-chan.
Soyo
That's not true~
Tsukinomori Student C
Will you teach me?
Soyo
I don't know. Should I?

Oh, Tomori-chan.
Morning~

Tomori
"The tears won't come...
The edges of my eyes sting
and hurt."
Tomori
"What should I do?
I don't know how to
express these things..."
Background
Background
Background
Tomori
"But I wanted to really talk about everything.
I wanted them to really hear me.
If I'd really been able to say everything."
Background

Background
Tomori
"My ears are plugged up with so many words."
Tomori
"No.
The wailing clamor
comes and goes..."
Background

Tomori
"I just know I must have made a mistake somewhere."
Background

Tomori
"That's how it always is."
Tomori
"Even though it's there, I can't touch it anymore.
Even though I could see it, it disappears."
Background

Tomori
"Everything is gone.
Every last thing."
Tomori
"Because I couldn't say anything."

Tomori
"Once again... I couldn't become human."
Tomori
"I wish I could go away,
but I'm always doing the wrong thing."
Tomori
"My mouth grows empty.
I thirst for words."

"What should I do...?"

???
That's dangerous!

There're stairs ahead.
If you space out, you might miss a step.
???
Are you all right?
???
It looked to me like you were about to cry.
???
Even in the city, you can see the North Star.
???
I thought I wouldn't be able to see the stars in Tokyo,
so I was surprised the first time I spotted it.
Background

Tomori
That's the Ursa Major.
Tomori
The North Star is in Ursa Minor... It's there.

You found it quickly.

Tomori
Oh, I have a constellation book with me now.
???
Will you show me?
???
? Something fell out of your bag.
???
This is a notebook...?
???
Sorry.
I accidentally saw a bit of your notebook.
???
"Because I couldn't say anything.
Once again... I couldn't become human."
???
This is like a song.
???
When you sing, it feels like it reaches people, right?
Even things you have a hard time saying... more than words, the feeling gets through.

What!? Perform live?
Tomori-chan's solo?

Ahaha, this is super sudden~

Ah~ We might be able to do it at the beginning of this live.
Is it okay if it's a short slot?

Taki-chan, she didn't tell you?

I don't know what happened, and I'm not going to pry, but I'm worried about you~

Audience A
Takamatsu? I wonder who that is...?
Audience B
Akari? How do you read that name?
Tomori
(I wonder if I can do it well.)
Tomori
(Standing here alone,
makes me feel much lonelier than usual...)
Tomori
(Maybe something is going wrong again.
Maybe everything is going wrong again.)
Tomori
(But... I want to move forward.)
Tomori
Everyone is gone and I don't have music,
but this is a song.

Tomori
"I got lost,"
"I took detours."

Tomori
"I let go of their hands."
Tomori
"I didn't want to forget."
"I didn't want to lose anything."
"I gathered up the fragments still left inside me."
Tomori
"They became a song."
"That's right. This is a song."
