Miku

Listen

They're having another serious talk today...
2

Luka

Listen

Yes, they've been having brainstorming sessions each day before they start practicing.
3

MEIKO

Listen

They're so motivated.
Now I'm really looking forward to seeing their performance.
4

Rin

Listen

Hey, isn't there anything we can do to help them? What if we brought them snacks and stuff like that other time?
5

Miku

Hmm... Unfortunately, we've already gone through everything we had.
6

Rin

Oh, I know! What if we played them some songs of encouragement while they're on break?!
7

Luka

That's a wonderful idea. I'm sure they'll enjoy listening to some relaxing music when they're feeling tired.
8

MEIKO

Speaking of relaxing, brewing some of that herbal tea they brought over the other day should also work, no?
9

MEIKO

Listen

You work like you mean it and rest like you mean it. Switching gears properly should help them concentrate better.
10

Luka

Listen

Right. Let's see if we have anything else aside from the tea too.
11

Rin

Listen

Alright! In the meantime, I'm gonna come up with some good songs to play!
12

Miku

Listen

(They're all trying to come up with good ideas for Ichika and the girls...)
13

Miku

(Is there anything I can do for them right now...?)

Miku

Oh...
15

MEIKO

Hm? Was that a light bulb, Miku?
16

Miku

Listen

Well, I don't know if this counts...
17

Miku

But when we told them that we're excited for their show, they looked really motivated.
18

Rin

Yeah! They all had this shine in their eyes☆
19

Luka

It is easier to work hard when you know that others are looking forward to seeing you succeed.
20

MEIKO

Listen

Right. It's important to sit back and believe in them, but we can give them words of encouragement too.
21

Rin

Listen

Then, let's also do that!
For example, we could...
A few days later

Shiho

Listen

Are we all ready now?
23

Ichika

Listen

Wait, I need a little more time.
I'm still not fully tuned.
24

Saki

Listen

Okay!
25

Saki

Listen

In that case, I'm gonna have some of that tea MEIKO brought over for us.
26

Saki

Listen

It's got a nice cool flavor to it. Feels like it helps me focus!
27

Honami

Listen

That would be the peppermint tea, I think. I have to think she put quite a lot of thought into her choice.
28

Shiho

Listen

Now that you mention it, they've all been supporting us in a lot of different ways. They've even been playing smooth jazz and stuff for us during our breaks...
29

Shiho

Listen

We need to make sure we pay back their generosity.
30

Ichika

Listen

Sorry, thanks for waiting! Let's get started...

Rin

Listen

Oh, Ichi and the others are all here!
33

Miku

Listen

Yes, and they're hard at work again today.
34

Rin

Wait, Miku-P, isn't now our chance?
35

Miku

Huh?
36

Rin

Listen

Remember what we talked about the other day?! We're gonna support them from afar, right?!
37

Rin

Now's definitely our chance!
Here, stand next to the door!

Miku

Listen

A-Alright, don't push.
39

Miku

(I couldn't really say no...
But we're really going to do that now?)
40

Miku

(I don't really have a choice, huh...)
41

Miku

Listen

(Then...!)
42

Miku

(A gentle smile that conveys my faith in them, while also sending vibes of encouragement and expectation...!)
43

Rin

Listen

(Wow, Miku-P, that's perfect!
Keep going! Just like that!)

Ichika

Listen

How do you feel about that last run...? Wait, huh?

Ichika

Listen

Miku's looking our way...
46

Honami

Listen

Oh, you're right. What do you think she's doing?
47

Shiho

Listen

Does she want to talk to us? No, maybe not.
48

Saki

Listen

What if she's trying to say, “Hey, you girls better be working in there”, like a teacher checking up on their club!
49

Shiho

Listen

I seriously doubt that.
50

Ichika

Listen

But seeing her watching us does make me want to keep trying my best for some reason...
51

Saki

Listen

Me too! So, let's show her that we're working really hard!
52

Shiho

Listen

Alright, let's go over what we just did.
For the first part leading up to the chorus...
53

Miku

Listen

(Umm... I don't know what they're saying, but they do seem a little more motivated now...)
54

Rin

Listen

(Way to go, Miku-P☆)
55

Miku

(They're working hard on their music like we expected.)
56

Miku

Listen

Hehe. I can't wait to see your performance, girls.
