Part 1

Vivid Street
1
Toya
(Tsukasa and Saki's party is happening this week.)
2
Toya
(Kamishiro even said that my cupcakes were good. All that's left is for me to bake more for the day of.)
3
Toya
(Practice ended early today, so I should take this opportunity to buy whatever ingredients I need.)
4
Customer
Thanks for the pancakes! They were delicious! I'll come back again real soon!
5
Owner
Yeah, we'll be waiting!
6
Toya
Oh, it's that cafe...
7
Toya
(Akito goes there from time to time.)
8
Akito
Hey, that cafe.
They added new pancakes to their menu again?
9
Toya
“We proudly present our latest and most odd pancakes”...?
10
Toya
Akito, what do you think they mean by “odd”?
11
Akito
Hm? Oh, I think they're referring to how delicate the batter is.
12
Akito
Each individual pancake ends up looking unique because they all rise differently.
13
Toya
Wait, doesn't that mean some will turn out well while others won't look as nice? That seems a bit unfair to the customers...
14
Akito
Nah, they're pros when it comes to that. Regardless of how they look, they all taste good.
15
Akito
However, there are people out there who only care about getting the best-looking one. Like Ena...
16
Toya
I see...
17
Akito
I don't really care how they look as long as they taste good. They're kind of like shows, you know?
18
Toya
Like shows?
19
Akito
Yeah, because they whip up the best pancakes they can for each individual customer at that point in time.
20
Akito
Apparently, how they turn out depends on what kind of condition the batter's ingredients are in that day, the temperature, level of humidity and all sorts of other things.
21
Akito
Doesn't that kinda sound like one of our events?
22
Toya
Like one of our events...?
23
Toya
So, the batter is the performer? And they're using the information they can only learn that day, like the temperature and humidity, to get the crowd going?
24
Akito
Exactly.
25
Akito
I remember how KAITO compared us to pancakes when we were getting ready for one of our events...
26
Akito
And in retrospect, he was right for a change.
27
Toya
For a change? That's not a very nice thing to say.
28
Akito
Hey, it's his fault for acting the way he usually does.
29
Akito
Anyway, that place's “odd” pancakes are made with each individual customer in mind.
30
Akito
Since we're here and done practicing for the day, wanna go get some? They even have some that aren't all that sweet.
31
Toya
Yes, we should invite the others as well.
32
Toya
(Odd creations that come from the heart...)
33
Rui
Why not try thinking about the happiest thing they ever did for you when you were little?
34
Little Tsukasa
Then, I'm going to turn Toya's frown upside down by doing a show for him!
35
Little Saki
His shows are really fun!
You'll be smiling from ear to ear after watching it!
36
Toya
(Back then, they made me smile so many times. Even now...)
37
Toya
(And now, it's my turn to...)
38
Toya
Miku, KAITO and Kamishiro... For the sake of all those who helped me, I need to do my absolute best.
39
Toya
Alright...
40
Toya
I'll grab whatever ingredients I need, go over the recipe again and review the entire process. After that...
