**Background**
#### The Next Day
#### The Garage
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/) & [Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
...
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(The tension in the air is so heavy...)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(But I already made up my mind.)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
U-Um... I...!
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Houka. Can you say that again?
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Certainly♪
What would you all say to having Shiomi-san join the band?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Um... What do you mean...?
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Exactly as I said.
Shiomi-san would play piano for us as a support member.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Sorry... I'm not following.
What is her playing piano supposed to change?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Even if you add piano,
Mahoro's burden isn't going anywhere, is it?
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
It would give us a way to keep millsage from disbanding.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Don't toss that out like it's nothing.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Besides, you're the one who said it, Houka.
You said it would be better to end things as we are.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Until a few days ago, I believed that was our only choice as well.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
But... if there is even a chance we might not have to,
would it not be worth considering?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
That... is...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Houka-chan, so this chance you mentioned... the one that means we might not have to disband...
is Hotaru-chan?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Mahoro...!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
millsage... was the band Kanata started.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
If we disband, we won't gather here together anymore,
and we won't get to play our songs anymore...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
It's the last memory we have left of her...
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...!
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
But... think about it.
Piano was Kanata's part, you know? Are we really okay with that?
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Even professional bands, at times, undergo lineup changes
under deeply unfortunate circumstances.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Such decisions often divide opinion among fans...
but I believe the members who remain make that choice so they may carry the band onward.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
So long as the songs continue to be performed... so long as the band itself endures,
the original members' presence remains within it.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Perhaps it is a declaration of resolve, a way of saying, "We will not forget."
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Besides... Shiomi-san is Kanata-san's apprentice.
I cannot imagine she would ever dishonor what Kanata-san left behind.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
Y-yes! Of course I wouldn't...!
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
To begin with, this support arrangement
was proposed by Shiomi-san herself.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Huh...? Hotaru-chan did?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I was the one who brought it up...
I asked if there was anything at all I could do.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I'm sure all of you have talked this over again and again.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I know very well
that it isn't my place, as an outsider, to say anything...
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
But...! Kanata-san told me she wanted
all of you "to be happy."
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
If that was Kanata-san's wish...
then I want to make it come true!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I hope Kanata-san can smile... and that all of you can, too!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I think... there's no way Kanata-san would have wanted
an ending like the band disbanding...!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I...
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Hah... What a beautiful little fantasy.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Natsume-chan...!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(So this is Natsume-san...!)
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
I have been expecting you. Please, this way.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Don't give me that "expecting you" act...!
Why are you trying to decide the band's future without me?!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
What are you thinking, Houka?!
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
What else would I be thinking of? The survival of the band, naturally.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
The survival of the band?
Don't make me laugh!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Mahoro, Nagi, use your heads and think this through!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
The second that girl joins, it becomes something else.
It won't be the band you're trying so hard to keep from disbanding anymore.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
By that reasoning, millsage would already
no longer be millsage as things stand...
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Exactly! That's what I've been saying!
Without Kanata, it isn't millsage!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
There's no point playing in a band like that!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
...
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(I understand how Natsume-san feels. I really do.)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(But still...)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Natsume-san looks so sad, too. So...)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
U-um...!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
What...?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
N-nice to meet you. My name is Hotaru Shiomi!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Huh...?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I'm truly... truly sorry for bringing all this up
and confusing everyone.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
But, please... Could you at least consider
keeping the band going...?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I... I want everyone who loved Kanata-san
to be happy.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
And that includes you too, Natsume-san...!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
What...?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
You must have been hurt... and sad...
and it must have been so painful.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
But... if the band is gone,
I think you'll regret it someday...!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
What is with that girl...?
She doesn't know a thing, but she keeps talking like she understands...!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
"I want you to be happy?!"
Don't decide I'm unhappy for me.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
I decide what makes me happy.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
You're just playing savior to someone you decided was pitiful so you can feel good about yourself!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
...!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Natsume-chan, that is...
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
My, that was rather harsh.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(My legs are shaking. I can't even look up...)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Having anger thrown straight at me like this... really is scary.)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Natsume-san is right.)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Saying I want to make everyone happy... sounds so stupid.)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(But...!)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
It’s my... assignment.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
...?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
It’s something... I have to do.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
My promise to Kanata-san...!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
Please tell me, Natsume-san.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Huh...?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
What do I have to do for you to accept me?
What do I have to do to prove that I'm serious?!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
H-huh?! Like I said, that's just your own problem...
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Why not settle this with a battle?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
!?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
A battle...?
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Yes. Natsume-san will improvise on guitar,
and Shiomi-san will answer it with her own arrangement.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
In other words, you could call it... "Let's do a jam session!"♪
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
That's... what Natsume-senpai and Kanata used to do...!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Houka! You just had to stick your nose in again...!
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Because it would settle things much faster, wouldn’t it?
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Natsume-san has her reservations about Shiomi-san,
while Shiomi-san wishes to earn Natsume-san's respect.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
In that case, there is only one way to settle this: a battle of skill♪ Wouldn't you agree?
If you don't like having her here, then beat her with your own playing and send her back.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Hah.
Like that little runt could ever keep up with me.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Hmm, is that so...?
What do you say, Shiomi-san?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I... I'll do it. Please let me try!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
If that is what it takes for Natsume-san to accept me...!
If that is what it takes for all of you to accept me.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/) & [Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
Because... I am Kanata-san's apprentice.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Fine. Come at me, then.
I'll wipe the floor with you!
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Then let us begin at once♪
You two have no objections, I trust?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Yeah...
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
If Mahoro is okay with it...
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
As for the piano... Let us have you use Kanata-san's. This way.
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
I got it...
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(This is... the piano Kanata-san used to play.)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(It's covered in dust... It hasn't been used in so long...)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Please... Let me play on it.)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
...?
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Wait... Down by the pedals.
Something fell...)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(A Nikopan-chan... keychain...?)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Could this be... Kanata-san's...?)
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Come on, let's get started already!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
R-right! I'll get ready right away!
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
(Sorry. It might be a little cramped in there,
please stay in my pocket for now, okay?)
**[Hotaru](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/16/)**
Thank you for waiting. Please... let's begin!

#### In Front of the Station
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
...Hotaru-san.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(I thought if I came to the nearest station, there might be a chance...)
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(But it seems she's not going to come out to see me after all.)
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(She didn't reply to the message I sent last night, either.)
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(This means... I guess she's grown to hate me.)
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
\*Sigh\*... I guess this is where it ends, then.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(Once again, I could not escape from this version of me.)

**Classmate A**
Houka-chan, you're amazing!
**Classmate B**
That's our Houka-chan!
**Teacher**
Thanks to Izumi-san, there's nothing to worry about!
**Houka**
Ehehe, not at all.
It's all thanks to everyone.

**Background**
—Back then, I was full of myself.
I was simply reasonably capable and good at getting along with others.
Just through that, and by pure luck, I happened to end up at the center of my social circle,
and I gradually began to wonder...
"What exactly is it about me that people value?"
I don't possess any exceptional talent,
nor have I put in any blood, sweat, and tears.
So why was someone like me "at the center of the circle?"
...After that, a classmate invited me to join a band,
but that question only grew louder with each passing day.

**Background**
It was as if the whole world was lying to me.
As if, even though I was right there, no one was actually looking at me.
That was when I met her.

**Kanata**
Nice to meet you! Uh, what was it again?
Oh, right, the band name!
**Kanata**
Ah, we are... Aqua Rapids!
**Kanata**
—♪
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
...♡
She was the real deal. I was certain of it.
If I stayed by her side, I could just be a background character.
The light she radiates could burn to ash this fabricated version of me that everyone has built...!

**Background**
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(Just as I thought, my whole life...
will end without anything ever coming true.)
**???**
...Found you.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
! ...Oh my.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Why, if it isn't Natsume-san♪
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
...Even after everything that happened yesterday.
I can't believe you're acting so perfectly normal.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
I'm hurt you'd think that.
I'm waiting around here because I want to apologize to Hotaru-san, isn't that obvious?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
I honestly can never tell what you're thinking...
Whatever.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Just answer one question for me.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Do you have the will to keep going with millsage?
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
...Yes, of course.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Right. Then let's go, right away.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
? Go where?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
To go get her. Hotaru.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
...Uh, well—
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Hah, so even you make a face like that!
Now that's a rare sight.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
It's true you've pulled some absolutely insane stunts.
The kind where you couldn't even complain if the other members ended up hating you for it.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
But, well, I couldn't care less about any of that.
The only thing I have to protect is the music we made with Kanata.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
As long as that doesn't fade away and disappear,
I say go ahead and fight or deceive each other all you want.
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(I had thought she was someone who lived purely for the approval of others...)
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
(It seems she's surprisingly iron-nerved.)
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
...? You just said "Hotaru-san," but...
**[Houka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/20/)**
Don't we need to go get
Mahoro-san and Nagi-san, too?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Huh? Ah.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
As for them, I already sent someone to go get them ages ago.

! Mahoro...!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...Could it be you've been waiting here this whole time?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Yeah...
I figured just barging into your place was a bit too much.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Even though I'd been ignoring all your messages?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...But I figured you'd read them eventually, right?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...What's that supposed to mean?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...Mahoro, I'm sorry.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
I... I hurt you.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...I'm the worst, aren't I?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...You really are.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
But... I'm the worst, too.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Huh...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
About Houka-chan... surprisingly, I'm not all that angry at her.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I mean, sure, it was a shock... but it felt like, well, it makes sense that she'd think I was unreliable.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...That's not...!
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
The vocals, the bass, the lyrics...
I thought I could do them, too. That I should be able to.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I just got it into my head that I had to do them all, ignored what you were saying,
pushed myself too hard, and just spun my wheels...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
And the result was that I self-destructed on stage at the live...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
It's just... so uncool, isn't it?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...No, you were working really hard, Mahoro.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...That's not what I mean.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
You were trying to hold everyone together,
and you never gave up on the vocals or the lyrics—
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I said, that's not what I mean!!
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...!?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I already get it... that I don't have talent or charisma
or any of that! But...!

!?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I lost so completely to Hotaru-chan!
She's in middle school, and I'm in high school!!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Everyone picked Hotaru-chan over me!!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I'm frustrated that I lost,
and I'm frustrated that I was never recognized, but...!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Yesterday... when I heard Hotaru-chan sing, a part of me thought "It's okay now"
and just... gave up and felt so much lighter...!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
And the fact that I let myself accept defeat is what frustrates me more than anything!!
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...Mahoro...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Geez, why don't I have any talent!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Isn't it okay to admire someone!? Isn't it okay to dream!?
I want to believe I'm the protagonist, too!!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Someone who sparkles, who draws everyone in and never lets them go...
Something like that...! I, too...!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I, too... wanted to be just like Kanata...
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...Kanata was special. She was an invincible hero.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Then, why...?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
If she was invincible, if she was more of a protagonist than anyone else...
Why did she have to die...?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Why, tell me why!?
Why did Kanata have to die!?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**

There should have been so much more to come.

We still had the cultural festivals for our second and third years of high school,
and the school trip!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Deciding our paths, taking entrance exams!
All of us going to the same university and continuing the band!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
We were supposed to have that kind of future...!
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...Yeah.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
We really were.

...Geez, come on.

\*Sniffle\*... Ahh~
It's been so long since I cried this much.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...Now that you mention it. It's been a while since I've seen you make such a fuss, Mahoro.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Hey, saying I'm "making a fuss" is kind of mean, isn't it...?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Well, I mean. When we were kids,
you and Kanata used to argue a lot and both end up crying, didn't you?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
But after we started the band, even when we fought,
it was like we'd become somewhat more like adults.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Well... we can't be kids forever, you know.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Yeah... and that's why...
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
It gets harder to say what you really feel, I guess.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Even Natsume-senpai and Houka.
We've been together a long time, but we might have never really talked honestly with each other.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...Maybe.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...Mahoro. You haven't cried at all
since Kanata passed away.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Not even at the funeral.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...!
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
If you're carrying something, I want you to tell me.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
I don't want you to have to shoulder it alone anymore.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
You know... I got in the way of Kanata's dream.

Comet Rising. The Koshien of bands, only for teenagers.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
At the afterparty, she told me she wanted to enter it.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
But I... I'd never thought about that kind of future, you know.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I was having too much fun... and I was scared of things changing.
So I ended up saying... let's do it later, not right now.

**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
To Kanata, who knew better than anyone that she didn't have time.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I keep thinking... if I hadn't said that,
maybe we could have entered before Kanata died.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Or even if not...
if I'd just given her a proper answer back then, and said "Let's do it..."
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Then maybe Kanata's feelings could have been saved, even just a little...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
When I thought that... I felt I had to make it come true for her.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...So that's why you were pushing yourself so recklessly?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Yeah... But in the end,
I guess I could never be Kanata after all.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Yesterday's live made me realize that, as much as I hated it.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I'm a terrible person, aren't I?
Dragging everyone down with my own guilt.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...I wonder.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
What Kanata really thought... only Kanata knows that.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...That's true.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Ah, geez... What am I supposed to do now?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Having it shoved in my face that I have no talent...
and not even being able to atone properly...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...What can I even do?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
...You know. Wouldn't it be okay... if you just quit the band?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...Huh?
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
I've said it before.
I don't want to see you in pain, Mahoro.
...I think choosing that path is okay, too.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...I see.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...Yeah... I guess so...
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Yeah... we did once end up talking about doing that.
...And, you know, your feelings about Kanata...

But I hate it.

Not my feelings for Kanata... and not my story, either.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I can't take Kanata's place. I don't have talent like Hotaru-chan.
I'll never be chosen as the protagonist.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I have nothing. I'm just an empty shell.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I get it now. It's so painfully clear.
But if I step down now, it's over.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Even if it hurts, I can't step down.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
I don't want to use having nothing as an excuse to end it...!

Nagi-chan...

Well, I don't really know, though.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
I mean, with the band in this state...
who knows if we can even do it again.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
True...
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Cold.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
The sea breeze is way too cold.
**[Nagi](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/18/)**
Right. It stings.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Let's go.

Ah...

Have you found any band members?

Ah... yes.
Nagasaki... Nagasaki Soyo-chan.

Tomori-chan, about yesterday...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
!?
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
H-Hey.
There's no need to be so surprised...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
No, it's nothing... Ah!
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
You dropped your notebook...

If there's something you're thinking about, saying it out loud is the best thing to do.

Another girl from Tsukinomori.
Didn't someone from there come here the other day, too?
**[Sakiko](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/10/)**
...!
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
It's been a while.
**[Sakiko](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/10/)**
...
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Wait...!
Please, I want to talk!
**[Sakiko](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/10/)**
I have no business with you.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
I've been looking for you all this time!
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Why... did you change schools?
**[Sakiko](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/10/)**
...!
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Was it because of CRYCHIC?
**[Sakiko](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/10/)**
It had nothing to do with that.
Now, please don't involve yourself with me any further!
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Saki-chan...!

Tomori-chan.
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Come on, hurry up!
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
Hey!? I'm working right now...
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
But if we don't work this out,
Tomori-chan won't ever be able to be in a band!
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
Huh? Tomori?
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
Ah...
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Okay, talk it out!
Hey, Soyo-san, you sit down, too.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/) & [Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
What?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Hold on a minute...
Anon-chan, did you bring Tomori-chan here for us?
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Yeah, you should really talk it through.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
I see.
Thank you, Anon-chan.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
And Tomori-chan, thank you for coming too.
I also wanted to continue yesterday's conversation.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
You asked why CRYCHIC broke up, didn't you?
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
...
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
After that day, you stopped coming to rehearsals, too.
And, little by little, we stopped being able to get everyone together.
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
It's Sakiko's fault.
She's the one who said she was quitting out of nowhere.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
I think... she had her reasons for that.
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
What reasons?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
I don't know, but...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
It's because...
I couldn't sing well at our live show...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
That's why Saki-chan stopped coming.
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Why would you think that?
That song, "Haruhikage," is super good.
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
Outsiders can keep their mouths shut.
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
Yes, we all know that already.
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
What...?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Tomori-chan, so that's what you've been thinking.
Thank you for telling us.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
But you know, I don't want you to blame yourself any more...
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
After all, it wasn't anyone's fault.
I don't want you to start hating bands!
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Taki-chan, you feel the same, don't you?
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
Huh...?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Taki-chan was
waiting for you to come to rehearsals, Tomori-chan.
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
You aren't angry at me?
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
I could never be angry with you!
For me... it wasn't the fight,
it was the fact that you stopped coming that hit hardest...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
I knew it. It's my fault...
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
!? Wha...!?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
No, it isn't.
After all, Taki-chan really loves you, Tomori-chan.
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
...
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Hey,
you think we can start over again?
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/) & [Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
What...?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
With the band.
Me and Tomori-chan and Taki-chan.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
We misunderstood each other and missed our chance to connect. But now, we finally understand.
And yet, it's just too sad if we end up going our separate ways like this...
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Let's try it again, together!
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
Together?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
That's right...!
And this time, we'll be sure to talk things out!
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
If we do that, I'm sure we'll be all right...
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
Tomori...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**

**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Um... What about me?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/) & [Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
What?
Huh?
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
Yeah.
You too, Anon-chan. Let's do it...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
Our whole lives.
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
What...?
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
Our whole lives...?
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
Yeah... I just don't want to go through that again...
Losing the band...
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/) & [Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
......
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
I swear. If it's with you, Tomori-chan, I wouldn't mind doing it all my life.
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
I swear, too.
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
Yeah.
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
H-H-Hang on!
Our whole lives!? She's talking about our whole lives!
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
So?
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Do you know the average lifespan?
They say that when we're old ladies,
we'll probably be living into our nineties, you know?
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
And you never know what's going to happen in life...
Are you going to play drums even when you're a grandma?
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
I am.
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Huh... Ah, um...
My whole life... A lifetime, huh...?
**???**
...!
**[Soyo](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/4/)**
It's all right. You don't have to force yourself...
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
......
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
O-Okay, I get it, I get it!
We'll start with short-term goals... Why don't we start with a week?
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Then, a month!
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
Then, what about until we do a live performance?
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
I don't know about spending a lifetime on this,
but to start with, let's try to do a live performance!
All of us together! Okay?
**[Tomori](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/1/)**
Then, staying until our first live performance is non-negotiable.
**[Anon](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/2/)**
\*Sigh\*... You really are super serious about every little thing...
Oh, I'm just kidding! I'll work really hard!
**[Taki](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/5/)**
A lifetime is a lifetime, you know?
You sure you want that girl in the band?
**???**
Lifetime...
**???**
What an interesting woman.

Taki-san, will you be working?

#### Minase Girls' Academy - Roof
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
(Five minutes left of break...)
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
(This feels like a good stopping point. I could head back early, but...
I may as well practice until the last minute.)
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Ah! I knew I'd find you here!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
What do you want...?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Don't "what do you want" me~
Natsume-chan, you still haven't turned in the assignment due today, have you?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Huh? You're in the class next door.
Why do you even know that?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
You know the class rep in your class?
She's in the Home Economics Club with me.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
We were having lunch together today,
and your name came up. She was worried about the deadline.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Then she should've come to get it herself.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Uh... Well...
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Then spit it out.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Uh, y-yeah... You're right!
It's just... she says you're kind of hard to approach, Natsume-chan.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Hmph. So you came in her place?
Well, I can see why she'd be intimidated by my aura.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
"Aura" isn't quite the word... You're always so on edge.
And the way you glare... I think people find you scary.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Oh, give it a rest. That's part of my aura too.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
A-Anyway!
She seems really worried, so just hand it in. Okay?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
All right, already...
What was the assignment again?
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
She said it was math.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
I'll hand it in tomorrow...
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Did you forget it...?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Right. I forgot. To bring it. To school.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Honestly... Then make absolutely sure you bring it tomorrow, okay?
I'll let the class rep know you said so.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Yeah, yeah... Still, you really are too nice for your own good.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Huh? Me?

It's not that I was holding back...
But maybe I'd gotten used to standing a step behind her.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
That's not exactly cool of me, huh?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
Even so... you kept the band going.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Huh?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
You were too softhearted and too nice to leave it alone.
You figured you had to be the one to keep millsage together this time, right?
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
That's why you kept working on Nagi and Houka,
and kept the band going even with just the three of you.
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
I think that's more than enough to be proud of.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
...!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
millsage is what it is today because you didn't give up.
Don't you forget that.
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
N-Natsume-chaaaan...!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
But! From now on, no more smiling and going along with everything!
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
If you're aiming to win Comet Rising,
then you need to carry yourself like it!
**[Mahoro](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/19/)**
Hehe... Honestly, I can't tell
whether you're praising me or scolding me~
**[Natsume](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/17/)**
That's why—

**Background**
**Manager**
I messaged you. You're never late.
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I'm so sorry I'm late!
**Manager**
Hm?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
A bunch of stuff came up,
and I kinda lost track of time dealing with it all~
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Huh?
Arale-chan, what's wrong?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
My throat's just a little off today.
Hehe...
**Manager**
I see.
I've got some throat lozenges I swear by. I'll tell you about them later.
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Oh... Thank you.
**Manager**
All right, now that everyone's here, let's get our regular meeting started.
**Everyone**
Okaaay!
**Manager**
As I said earlier, Fuji-san has to get back
to work after this, so let's cover the online live show first.
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Yaaay!
**[Yuno](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/15/)**
Nakamachi-san... I thought you didn't want to do a live show.
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Huh?
**Manager**
I think it's time we started nailing down the details.
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Nono-chan's gonna practice her heart out!
**Manager**
That's the spirit!
Fuji-san, how are your deadlines looking?
**[Miyako](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/14/)**
I'll... manage.
**Manager**
Good.
Let's go over your schedule together later, just to be safe.
**[Miyako](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/14/)**
Okay.
**[Yuno](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/15/)**
...
**[Yuno](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/15/)**
I'll handle the music, but who's writing the lyrics?
**Manager**
Nakamachi-san, think you can write the lyrics?
**Manager**
No go, huh?
That's a shame. I really like your lyrics, Nakamachi-san.
**Manager**
Well, I'll see if one of our in-house creators can take this one.
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I'm sorry,
but I need to take a break from practice for a while!
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Huh?!
**Manager**
She's clearly not okay...
**Manager**
Does anyone know what's going on?
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Mm-mm...
**[Miyako](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/14/)**
I haven't heard anything...
**Manager**
Hmm...
**[Yuno](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/15/)**
(Did all that baggage finally catch up with her?)
**[Yuno](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/15/)**

What's up?

That friend of yours we met the other day...
She's in a group too, huh?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Oh...
Really?
**Bota**
It popped up in my recommendations.
**Raki**
Here, this one!
**Bota**
It says they're having an event this weekend.
**Raki**
Looks like it's at Suzunare.
Are you going, Arale-chan?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Th-This weekend? There's a Magilulu marathon on, so~
**Bota**
Oh, right! Did you see the new character for this summer's movie?!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I did!
**Bota**
I can't wait for it to come out~
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I've gotta rewatch the whole series first!
**Raki**
Good point!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Ahaha... Well, see you~
**Raki & Bota**
Bye-bye~
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Arale-chaaaaaaaaaan!

Gah!
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Found youuuuu!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Nono-chan-san...?!
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Nono-chan came to chat with you, Arale-chan!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
...!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
You're here because I asked to take a break from practice, right?!
I knew you'd be worried. I'm sorry!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
It's nothing serious!
I just feel bad showing up only to sit there while everyone else practices.
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
And I've let my homework pile up!
School comes first for a student, right?!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
So I thought I'd get caught up on all that first...
Hehe...
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
Arale-chan!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Y-Yes?!
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**
A cuddle or a kiss! Pick one!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
...
**Raki**
A kiss...
**Bota**
Cattle? Like cows?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
U-Um... I have a train to catch!
Excuse me!
**[Nonoka](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/12/)**

Elea?!
**Viola**
It's been sooo long! I never thought you'd actually come.
I'm so happy...
**Viola**
Oh!
Since you're here, come on up!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**

**Viola**
There's something I've regretted for a long time.
**Popo**
Over here.
**Bell**
Hurry uuuup!
**Viola**
Elea-chan and...
Oh, right. You're Arale-chan now.
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Viola!
**Viola**
Clematis... I know how you really feel.
You want to make up with Arale-chan too, don't you?
**Viola**
Watching your stream yesterday confirmed it.
So...
**Viola**
I want you and Arale-chan to make up, Clematis!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/) & [Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
...!
**Viola**
Come on, sing yesterday's song together
and make up right here!
**Popo**
What an honor to witness such a historic moment~
**Bell**
The two of them... They used to be friends,
but they had a big falling-out!
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Viola, what are you doing...?
**Viola**
I'll go grab the guitar. Wait right here!
**Bell**
Ooh, a surprise performance!

Haa... Haa...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
\*Sigh\*...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
What am I doing?!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I just dragged Ricchan away from their event!!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Poaching?! Kidnapping?! Theft?!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I'm a thieee
eeef?!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
What do I do?! They might sue me!
How did this even happen?! I really messed up!
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I'm scared... I don't know what to do.
Why... Why does everything always end up like this...?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
What do I do...?!
Ricchan, I... I never meant for this...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Huh...?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Oh!
Ricchan, you can still go back...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
No...!
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Thank you...
for getting me out of there.
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Hey, Arale-chan... You used "boku" just now...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Huh?! Boku... I mean, watashi... boku...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Did I say "boku"?
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Yeah.
When you call yourself "watashi," it feels like you're someone else...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Because!
I thought I had to change, so I made myself say "watashi"!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I'm sorry...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Huh?
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I kept telling myself you were happy now...
and tried not to think about it too much...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Honestly... I'm still scared.
Scared of having anything to do with V-Viola...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
And sometimes... I'm still scared of people looking at me...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
But that's exactly why I wanted to help you, Ricchan...!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
But I didn't know how,
and I never meant for any of this to happen... I don't even know what we should do next...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
Then let's figure it out together!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Ricchan...
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Yeah...!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I get things wrong all the time...
and I'm getting this wrong too...
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
So do I!
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Huh...?
**[Ritsu](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/13/)**
But even if this is a mistake... I don't care anymore.
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
Somehow... if I'm making a mistake with you, Ricchan, it doesn't feel quite so scary.
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
I'm a mess of mistakes... but I'm still me.
**[Arale](https://haneoka.org/intl/en/characters/11/)**
So I'm gonna do what I want to do!
