Akito, let's go grab some food!

Classmate B

Won't he be having lunch with his partner like usual? Or who knows, he could even have an appointment with Tenma?!

Akito

Listen

That's zero for two.
Anyway, I'm gonna go get some air...

As you all are now, even if you spend your whole lives trying, you'll never surpass RAD WEEKEND.
9

Taiga

Listen

I don't doubt that you'll keep getting better. Even if there's a massive skill gap between me and the rest of you, your chances of reaching my level won't be zero.
10

Taiga

Listen

But I'm talking about what's in here. Your heart.
11

Taiga

Listen

RAD WEEKEND was Nagi Kotaki's final event. It was meant to be my little sister's swan song.
12

Taiga

Listen

She found out she was sick and had just months to live, and she decided to use what little time she had left to put on one last event in this neighborhood.
13

Taiga

Listen

That was RAD WEEKEND.
14

Akito

Listen

That night was her last event...

Akito

(I still remember it like it happened yesterday. The way she sang lit this giant bonfire inside of me.)

Akito

Listen

(But...)
19

Akito

Listen

(I... We had no idea why everyone was able to sing with so much energy and passion that night.)
20

Akito

Listen

How were we supposed to know...?
21

Akito

Listen

The truth about RAD WEEKEND... That it was meant for Nagi... The commitment they all made to her...
22

Akito

Listen

And the whole town was in on it...
23

Akito

Listen

...
24

Akito

Listen

(I guess it just means she really was loved by everyone on Vivid Street, and she loved them...)
25

Akito

Listen

(And she literally put her life on the line to perform one last time. It has all the makings of a legendary event...)

Taiga

Listen

Come to think of it, your eyes... Ken always had that same look. Actually, you really reminded me of him during your show today.
28

Taiga

Listen

You might actually have what it takes to become just like him. But it's gonna be tough... Really tough.

Credit where credit's due...
That wasn't bad.

Taiga

Honestly, you probably sounded better than I did that night.
32

Akito

Listen

...!
33

Taiga

Listen

Which is why it's time for you all to see.
34

Taiga

Listen

I'm going to show you how RADder and our dreams ended that night.

There you are, Akito.

Toya? What's up...?

44

Toya

Listen

I should be asking you that question.
I didn't see you in class, so I've been searching all over for you.
45

Akito

Listen

I mean, we didn't have plans to have lunch together or anything, right?
46

Toya

Listen

I was hoping that we could.

47

Toya

Listen

I bought some rice balls.
Would you like one?
48

Akito

Listen

Okay then.
49

Toya

Listen

You have a few options to choose from.
Tuna salad, plum, bonito, salmon...
50

Akito

Listen

I don't really care.

51

Toya

Listen

So, is there something on your mind?
52

Akito

Listen

Kinda. I was just thinking about RAD WEEKEND, what Taiga said to us and all that other stuff... I can't get it out of my head...
53

Toya

Listen

Me neither...
I keep finding myself going over what happened then.
54

Toya

Listen

However... In the end, I always remember what Shiraishi said.
55

Akito

Listen

About Nagi believing...?

Sound Effect: Play

56
She said she believes that we can carry her dream forward...!
57
Then, I'm gonna do it!
58
We're going to surpass RAD WEEKEND and show you guys what things look like from on top of the world!
59

Toya

Listen

Interesting...
How did you know?
60

Akito

Listen

Because I felt the same way.
61

Akito

Listen

Toya...
62

Akito

Listen

Coming up against walls and overcoming them has become pretty normal for us as a team.
63

Toya

Listen

Yes, it has. And no matter how high any future walls are, we'll figure out a way to climb them. Together. I'm sure of it.
64

Akito

Listen

Same.
And I'll be counting on my partner while we do it.
65

Toya

Listen

Of course.
