Shiho

Listen

I figured that there'd be a lot of people here for New Year's...
2

Ichika

Listen

But this crowd's huge.
Even if we line up now, it might be a long time before we get to make our wishes at the shrine.
3

Honami

Listen

However, the lines for charms and fortunes don't seem very long. Why don't we make a quick stop there first?
4

Shiho

Listen

Yeah, that might be a good idea.
5

Saki

Listen

Uh oh! Wait a second!
What if the deities get overloaded with wishes?! Are they still gonna have enough power left for us...?!
6

Shiho

Listen

I doubt that's gonna happen.
7

Honami

Listen

I'm sure they'll be fine since they're probably used to hearing everyone's wishes each year.
8

Saki

Listen

Hmm... Yeah, I guess so.
9

Shiho

Listen

(Still, what should I wish for...?)
10

???

Listen

Huh? Shiho?

Minori? Kiritani...?

Saki

Listen

Wait, I didn't know you two would be here! Happy New Year!

Minori

Listen

Happy New Year!
14

Shiho

Listen

The clothes you're wearing... Did you both run here?
15

Minori

Listen

Yup! Haruka said she wanted to get in some exercise by jogging to the shrine, so I decided to join her!
16

Haruka

Listen

But we saw more people than we expected when we went to make our wishes... Which is why we decided to line up for fortunes instead.
17

Saki

Listen

Oh, then, wanna join us?
We were just thinking the same thing!
18

Minori

Listen

Really?!
Then, let's go together!
19

Saki

Listen

Yay! Alright everyone, let's go♪
20

Honami

Listen

Okay, I'm opening it...
21

Haruka

Listen

You look determined, Mochizuki.
22

Shiho

Listen

Oh, so...
There's a reason for that...

Honami

...!
24

Honami

Listen

I-It's...
25

Honami

Listen

A great blessing!!! I got a great blessing, everyone!

Minori

Listen

Whoa, you're right! Congratulations, Honami, that's amazing!!!
27

Minori

Listen

You tried really hard that time when we worked as shrine maidens. The deities probably noticed and decided to reward you!
28

Honami

Listen

*Sob*
Thank you so much, Hanasato...!
29

Minori

Listen

Mmm! This red bean dango soup's so good!
30

Ichika

Listen

They usually serve amazake. I've never seen them serve anything like this...
31

Honami

Listen

Me neither.
And this sign says, “Happy Birdie Red Bean Soup”... What do you think that means?
32

Shiho

Listen

...! This...
33

Shiho

Listen

This dango's shaped like a bird's face...!
34

Haruka

Listen

Oh, look at that...
I have one shaped like a bird's face too...!
35

Saki

Listen

There's an explanation written over there! Let's see... “If you find a birdie dango in your soup, then it's your lucky day! Eat it and your luck for the year is guaranteed to be great!”
36

Minori

Listen

Wow!
That explains why it's called “Happy Birdie Red Bean Soup”!
37

Saki

Listen

Oh, Shiho, Haruka, that means your luck for this year's gonna be amazing if you eat it.
38

Shiho

Listen

It...
39

Shiho & Haruka

Listen

It's too cute to eat...!

Minori

Listen

Alright, let's go make our wishes!
We shouldn't have to wait as long now since the line seems to have thinned out!

41

Saki

Listen

Hehe. I'm ready to make lots and lots of wishes♪
42

Shiho

Listen

...
43

Haruka

Listen

Do you already know what you're going to wish for, Hinomori?
44

Shiho

Listen

Oh...
45

Shiho

Listen

Actually, no...
46

Minori

Listen

Really?
Are you having trouble choosing just one?
47

Shiho

Listen

No, it's not that...
48

Shiho

Listen

I just feel that I should be trying to make my own wishes come true instead of asking any deities for their help.
49

Shiho

Listen

So, I'm not really sure what to say...
50

Minori

Listen

I see...
51

Haruka

Listen

Then, why don't you make a declaration instead?
52

Shiho

Listen

Huh?
53

Haruka

Listen

Apparently, you don't necessarily have to make a wish. You can also tell the deities that you're going to try to accomplish something.
54

Haruka

Listen

So, I think it's a nice opportunity to tell them about your plans for the future.
55

Shiho

Listen

Tell them...?
56

Minori

Listen

I didn't know that...!
I always just end up wishing for a lot of different stuff!
57

Haruka

Listen

Hehe. There's nothing wrong with that...
58

Haruka

Listen

But I have a feeling that stating your plans for the future suits you a little better, Hinomori.
59

Shiho

Listen

My plans for the future...
60

Shiho

Listen

Yeah, I might feel a little more comfortable doing that.
61

Shiho

Listen

Thanks, Kiritani...
I think I can figure out what I wanna say now.
62

Haruka

Listen

You do...? Great.
63

Minori

Listen

Okay, I'm ringing the bell!

Shiho

Listen

(I'm going to make the music that I want to as a pro.)
66

Shiho

Listen

(Our music's gonna move people's hearts. It's gonna give people the power to keep moving forward...)
67

Shiho

Listen

(And we're gonna do it together.)

Shiho

(So, I hope you're all watching...)
