Mizuki
Man, the Fan Festival was so much fun♪
2
Ena
You were probably the most excited person there, Mizuki.
3
Mizuki
I mean, it was kinda hard to believe how good everyone was!
4
Mizuki
And the amateur division was just one surprise after another! Not only that, all these friends of friends ended up performing too!
5
Mafuyu
Were you ever not surprised today...?
6
Kanade
Hehe. But I think I understand what Mizuki's trying to say.
7
Kanade
That one girl's performance almost sounded professional. When she sang that song from that one musical, you know?
8
Mizuki
Yeah, totally! She stayed in character the entire time too...!
9
Mizuki
I mean, seriously, I had a hard time believing what I was seeing.
10
Ena
Yeah, she was pretty good.
11
Ena
I didn't realize that the song she sang was a Miku song either until today.
12
Mizuki
She's gotta be in a theatre company or troupe, right? She seemed completely used to performing on stage.
13
Mizuki
“Amateur” officially, but basically pro quality, you know?
14
Ena
Yeah, exactly. Also, remember that really cute girl who sang that super cool song?
15
Ena
The second she started singing, she kinda just had the audience completely stunned...!
16
Kanade
Oh, I remember. Her ability alone seemed to turn the entire venue on its head.
17
Kanade
I can only remember what she sounded like, but she sounded like a seasoned veteran too.
18
Ena
Wow! I'm not really an expert when it comes to music, but that's pretty big coming from you, Kanade!
19
Mizuki
Was there anyone you liked, Kanade?
20
Kanade
Me? Well, the people you just mentioned, Hanasato and...
21
Kanade
Oh, right...
22
Kanade
I sort of remember one performer who didn't sound too used to performing on stage, but knew how to show what they were feeling.
23
Mizuki
Really? Hehe. That must mean you really enjoyed yourself today♪
24
Kanade
I did.
25
Mizuki
Minori really shined today too.
She seemed so pure and delicate, but really powerful at the same time!
26
Ena
Yeah. It's hard not to root for her, you know?
27
Mizuki
Oh, what if we made a song like that next?
28
Ena
Huh? It wouldn't sound anything like our other songs.
29
Mizuki
But you never know! It could help save someone somewhere out there!
30
Kanade
An idol song...?
31
Mafuyu
Are you going to...?
32
Kanade
That may be up to you, Mafuyu...
33
Kanade
Which song or performance left the biggest impression on you today?
34
Mafuyu
None in particular...
35
Kanade
I see...
36
Kanade
For now, I'll keep that genre in the back of my mind.
37
Mizuki
Yeah, okay.
I guess it is still your goal to compose a song that can save Mafuyu.
38
Kanade
I did.
39
Kanade
(But...)
40
Kanade
(I'm sure there are some people out there who can be saved by happy and upbeat music like that.)
41
Kanade
(Even I felt a little excited after that performance...)
42
Kanade
(I'll need to make some adjustments to that song when I get home.)
43
Kanade
(I should be able to improve on it quite a bit after today.)
