Oh noooo!!

Huh?!

Minori? What's the matter?

Look! Over there!
That claw machine!

I thought so! It's usually six tries for 500 yen, but you get eight tries if you go now!

Oh, you're right! Why didn't the machine we used just earlier give us this kind of deal?

But I've got a good feeling about this one...!

Do you want to give it another try, Hanasato?

Yeah, I want another go at PenPyon!
Would that be alright?

I say why not?
I'm still a bit salty over our last attempt.

Sure, we can make a stop before we head out.

Thank you!!
Alright, we're definitely getting it this time!

Careful... Careful...

Okay, that looks like a good spot.

Alright, we should be able to make it stand up and roll over...!

Oh, it's pushing PenPyon up a bit.

Yeah! Now it just needs to roll over and...!

No, it's stuck standing!
It's not moving like we expected!

How are you doing, Ena...?

Oh wow!
She got the claw around the entire plushie!

Good! This should...

What? Why wasn't it able to get a hold of it?! There's totally something wrong with this machine!

I guess you're having trouble too.

Trouble? No, this machine's the problem! If that's how it's gonna play...!

Your phone...?
What do you plan on doing, Ena...?

One of my brother's friends is really good at winning stuff from claw machines, so I'm gonna ask about what we should do through him!

I'll send a pic over of your machine too, Minori!

Really?! Thanks!

Alright, for now, once more!

I'm gonna try my best too!

And we'll be here cheering you on.

Hehe. Okay.

No... I still can't get it!!

You're both so close too...

Oh, I got reply from my brother...!
There's a part about your machine too, Minori!

Really?!

Let's see... In your case, Minori...
You're supposed to grab it by the hat on its head and gradually move it towards the prize chute.

Its hat?! Yeah, it's true that PenPyon's wearing a little top hat...

What if you're supposed to do that because the hat's sturdier than the plushie itself? That way even if the arm is weak, you could still get it to move.

Oh, now I see!
I'm gonna give it a try, Ena!

Okay, I think I've got a good idea too, so I'm gonna get back to it.

Sorry, Ichika, but can you stand next to the machine to spot how my claw's lining up?

Yes, of course.

I'm not sure if I'll be of any help, but...
Would you like me to do the same...?

Really?! Yes, please!

Okay.

Alright, here goes nothing!
Aim for the hat... First, my horizontal position...

Next, Kanade, my vertical position!

Okay, I'll tell you when to stop.

...

Just a little bit more...

There...!

Okay!
H-How does it look...?!

Yes, it seems good.

Alright, now we just need to get the claw to hook onto the top hat...!

...!
It got the hat...

It's up...!
Even though it wouldn't budge at all when we tried to get it to roll over...

That was amazing! It's a lot closer to the chute now! Two more tries tops and I think we've got it!

Right. Let's keep this up.

Yeah!
