Saki

Listen

We're here! Let's train as hard as we can again today♪
2

Ichika

Listen

Oh, Honami, you're here too.
Hm...? Where's Shiho?
3

Honami

Listen

She sent us a message saying she's going to be running a little late because homeroom is taking longer than expected.

4

Saki

Listen

Oh, you're right...!
We should probably wait since Miku and the others aren't here yet either.
5

Ichika

Listen

Okay.
6

Ichika

Listen

But I still sort of can't believe that they agreed to watch us practice every day like this.
7

Saki

Listen

Yeah♪ And we get a different teacher for each session, which makes it just that much more fun!
8

Honami

Listen

I really hope we're able to play at Shiho's level after working on playing our instruments for two weeks.
9

Honami

Listen

Especially after it became clear the other day just how wide a skill gap there is between her and us...

10

Ichika

Listen

If Shiho plays at 100%, our performance begins to fall apart...

11

Ichika

Listen

And she tries to prevent that from happening by playing at our level.
12

Saki

Listen

Yeah...
13

Saki

Listen

And she probably played like she really meant it when she was with STANDOUT.

Sound Effect: Play

14

Honami

Listen

The way Shiho played then was so cool...
15

Saki

Listen

I know, right?! I really want her to play like that when she's performing with us.
16

Ichika

Listen

...
17

Ichika

Listen

(Shiho hasn't put her bass down ever since she was little...ever since she asked if we wanted to form a band... She just kept playing...)
18

Ichika

Listen

(She practiced so much...
Catching up to her won't be easy.)
19

Ichika

Listen

(But...)

20

Shiho

Listen

Yes, we want to go pro, but that doesn't mean we'll take whatever we're given...!
21

Shiho

Listen

I... We want to do that by getting recognized for our own music. We're no different from you guys!
22

Shiho

Listen

We'll be performing here again in a month.
23

Shiho

Listen

If you think that little of our music, we'll just have to let it do the talking for us.
24

Shiho

Listen

We'll prove you wrong and make you eat those words.
25

Ichika

Listen

(Shiho said “we” that time.)
26

Ichika

Listen

(She said that she wants “our music” to do the talking.)
27

Ichika

Listen

Saki, Honami...
28

Ichika

Listen

Shiho honestly believes that we possess the ability to prove Saku wrong and get our music to resonate with everyone at that live house.

Ichika

Listen

So, let's do our best... Let's give it everything we have.
30

Honami

Listen

Ichika...
31

Ichika

Listen

I know that we've all been doing our best until now to put on good performances...
32

Ichika

Listen

But we're going to have to do even more this time.
33

Ichika

Listen

We'll need to do absolutely everything in our power so that Shiho will be able to play without holding back!
34

Saki

Listen

...!
35

Saki

Listen

Y-Yeah...
I want that to happen too...
36

Ichika

Listen

I get that it's not going to be easy...
However...
37

Ichika

Listen

That's the only way we'll be able to make Shiho happy.
38

Honami

Listen

Ichika...
39

Saki

Listen

You're right, Ichi!
40

Saki

Listen

We can't wait for “someday” to roll around. We have to get good right now!
41

Honami

Listen

Right!
Let's do it, Ichika!
42

Ichika

Listen

Thank you so much, Saki, Honami...!
43

Saki

Listen

Alright, you two! Let's huddle up to get ourselves good and pumped!
44

Saki

Listen

Let's do absolutely everything we possibly can during these next two weeks to give Shiho a chance to play at her very best!!
45

Saki

Listen

Leo/need! Here we...!
46

Ichika, Honami & Saki

Listen

Go!!
