Part 1
Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy - Class 1-A
Minori
Hm? You still have half a Salisbury steak left, Shiho. Are you saving the best for last?
Shiho
Yeah. Do you two prefer otherwise?
Kohane
I might be on your side. There's always a part of me that tells me to hold off eating what I like or what's good since it'll be gone before I know it.
Minori
Oh, I know exactly how you feel!
Minori
But... I can't help but eat them first because they're so yummy!
Minori
It's almost like I become totally powerless whenever I'm faced with my favorite things.
Minori
Even when I'm watching idol concerts, I try to sit quietly and absorb what I'm seeing, but I usually end up singing and cheering out loud without realizing it...!
Shiho
Okay, I sort of get the first part, but your landing was a little funny.
Kohane
Hehe. I think I understand what she's trying to say.
Kohane
(There's so much you can learn or gain by actually going to shows and events.)
Kohane
(But...)
Minori
Oh, that reminds me.
You guys are trying to surpass that one event... RAD WEEKEND, right?
You guys are trying to surpass that one event... RAD WEEKEND, right?
Minori
Does that mean you watch videos of that event as a team?
An
Yeah...
There aren't any as far as I know.
There aren't any as far as I know.
Akito
Yeah.
No cameras were allowed during RAD WEEKEND.

Kohane
(It's so sad that there aren't any videos of RAD WEEKEND out there...)
Kohane
(As a result, I've had to ask An and everyone else about what they witnessed...)
An
Yeah. This area has always had a lot of artists, and they put on events all the time.
An
But my dad and his team organized this event called RAD WEEKEND and gathered a bunch of the best ones who really knew how to get a crowd going.
An
It was a mix of all sorts of genres, but everyone shared an absolute love of music.
An
It was the coolest event ever! It was so exciting I could barely breathe. I thought my heart was going to explode!
An
It was sort of like... When the four of us battled against Arata during that event, I guess?
An
As the night went on, one performer after another got up on stage and kept getting the crowd more and more pumped!
An
Everybody wanted to sing! Everybody wanted to hear more! The sky was the limit that night!
An
Everyone there was so excited and couldn't wait to see what would happen next.
An
It's something you can't really achieve by any normal means. That might be the best way to describe RAD WEEKEND... How's that?
Kohane
(An's even told me about everyone who participated in that event along with their set lists so that I have some sort of baseline reference.)
Kohane
(But I still have to rely on my imagination...)
Kohane
(It just isn't the same...
I wasn't there to see RAD WEEKEND happen.)
I wasn't there to see RAD WEEKEND happen.)
Shiho
Kohane...?
Is something bothering you?
Is something bothering you?
Minori
You seem really concerned...
Kohane
I-It's nothing! Really!
Shiho
Well, if you say so...
Minori
Oh, Kohane, I happen to have three jellies on me right now. Want one?
Kohane
A-Are you sure, Minori?
I wouldn't want to take away from your lunch.
I wouldn't want to take away from your lunch.
Minori
Yes, I'm sure! After all, this is a special lunch!
Minori
Your choices are strawberry, orange and melon. Which would you like?
Kohane
I really appreciate it, but you should choose first since it's your lunch.
Minori
Alright, in that case...
I've made my choice!
I've made my choice!
Shiho
My bet's on the melon one.
Kohane
Oh, I thought the same thing.
Minori seems like a melon person.

Minori
C-Correct! How did you two know?
Kohane
Hehe. I had a feeling.
Shiho
Same.
