Toya

Let's hurry, Akito.
We have to be there to meet the others in five minutes.

2

Akito

Yeah, I definitely miscalculated...
That place isn't always so busy.

3

Toya

It was still very good.
Thank you for introducing it to me.

4

Akito

Sure thing. On top of all their different pancakes, their menu's got a big selection of other food you can get.

5

Akito

The rice omelet you got looked pretty good, so I might have to order one next time.

6

Toya

It was.
And I'm sure you'll also enjoy it.

Locals

Hey, look...!

8

Locals

Yeah, wait...! Aren't they...?

9

Akito

(Again...?)

10

Akito

This has been happening a lot lately.
Everyone keeps staring at us.

11

Toya

Yes, I've been getting that feeling as well.

12

Toya

But there's nothing we can do.

13

Toya

Your performance and Shiraishi's battle against Azusawa have made us the center of attention.

14

Akito

Right...
But I still don't feel all that comfortable...

15

Akito

Still, I like the tension I'm feeling in the air.

16

Toya

Me too. I feel even more motivated to exceed their expectations.

17

Akito

(Also, this feeling...)

18

Akito

(It's similar to back when...)

Junior High School Akito

(This place...)

20

Junior High School Akito

(It's wall-to-wall with locals and regulars.
She doesn't have home-field advantage here...)

21

Toya

Akito?
You went quiet all of a sudden. Is something wrong?

22

Akito

No... Nothing's wrong.

23

Akito

I was just thinking that this is how things felt when I saw RAD WEEKEND.

24

Akito

This buzz I'm sensing now...
It's sort of warping the air, you know?

25

Toya

Yes, I've also felt this before.

26

Toya

Though not at RAD WEEKEND, of course.

27

Akito

Then, where'd you feel it?

28

Toya

When I went to see a concert by this one world-class orchestra. The hall buzzed with a similar sort of excitement.

29

Toya

As the starting time slowly approached, everything became quieter and quieter. I could almost hear the breathing of each musician change as the anticipation grew.

30

Akito

I see...

31

Akito

What we're feeling in the air right now may be because of that kind of anticipation. Everyone around here is looking forward to what's coming.

32

Akito

(Then...)

33

Akito

(That means we gotta give them what they want.)

34

Akito

(The fire I ignited in everyone is still burning strong.)

35

Akito

(And now, we need to fan those flames into an inferno.)

36

Akito

Toya.
Let's hurry back over to Ken's place.

37

Toya

Okay.

38

Akito

I feel like it doesn't matter who we're battling against today. I think we can beat anyone right now.

39

Akito

We're gonna win no matter what!
