Part 1

Stage SEKAI
1
Airi
*Exhale*
How was my dancing just now?
2
Miku
You were really solid up until that turn!
3
Luka
I agree. The way you moved your arms was so dynamic I couldn't look away♪
4
Airi
Really? Thanks!
That means all that training with Haruka and Shizuku is paying off.
5
Airi
But I know I can still do better...
Mind watching again from the top?
6
Luka
Yes, of course.
7
Rin
Hehe!
Airi sure is motivated today!
8
Len
Yeah. She's always doing her best, but things are different this time around...
9
MEIKO
She said that she got Haruka and Shizuku to teach her stuff, and now they're all training together.
10
MEIKO
But she's even practicing here...
Which is astounding to me.
11
KAITO
I think seeing her work like this makes us all want to do better.
12
Rin
Yeah...
13
Rin
I think I'll start training too...!
14
Len
Huh?
15
Rin
No! I don't think... I'm going to!
16
Rin
I also want to spread cheer and hope to more people as an idol... I know there's lots more I can do!
17
Len
Rin...
18
MEIKO
Hehe. I like your spirit!
I'll join you!
19
KAITO
Do you have a training regimen in mind already?
20
Rin
Huh?
Uh... I actually haven't thought of anything yet...
21
KAITO
Then, we'll help you come up with one!
22
Len
Yeah.
We do want you to become the most wonderful idol you can.
23
Rin
Th-Thanks, you guys!
24
Rin
Then, let's brainstorm!
25
KAITO
Your strengths involve always being cheerful and full of energy, Rin!
26
KAITO
You're an expert at getting the audience going with big movements and gestures. So, let's try maximizing your potential there!
27
Rin
Maximize my potential? How do we do that?
28
KAITO
There are multiple ways to approach this, but let's try working on your sense of rhythm in singing and dancing.
29
KAITO
Learning how to maintain a steady rhythm should allow you to sing better and create a nice flow!
30
Rin
Okay! Let's try that!
31
Len
I know this isn't easy, but try to maintain this posture.
32
Rin
Hnnng! Th-This is so hard...!
33
Len
Your face looks scary, Rin.
Don't forget that you're an idol. You gotta smile.
34
Rin
Hnng... Smile... Smile... Hnng...
35
Rin
M-My body keeps shaking!!
36
MEIKO
Alright, let's cap things off today with the most intense strength training ever!!!
37
MEIKO
Starting with some squats!
You'll be doing... As many as you can until I say, “Stop!”
38
Rin
What?!
39
Rin
(Until she says, “Stop!”...?!
She's gonna make me do so many...!)
40
Rin
(But...!)
41
Rin
(Airi's doing her absolute best...!)
42
Rin
O-Okay, I'll try...!!!
43
Rin
Huff... Huff...
44
MEIKO
Nice work, Rin.
Congratulations on making it all the way through!
45
MEIKO
That means we can go even harder tomorrow!
46
Rin
E-Even harder...?!
47
Rin
I don't know if I'll be able to handle that...
48
Rin
B-But I'll do my best!
Like Airi's been doing!
49
MEIKO
Hehe. That's the spirit, Rin!
50
Miku
Nice work, Rin.
51
Rin
Oh, Miku, Luka!
Is Airi done practicing?
52
Luka
Yes, she finished just a second ago and went home.
53
Rin
Really?
I had no idea...
54
KAITO
It's proof that you were focusing on your own training.
55
Miku
Still, why did you decide to start training all of a sudden?
56
Rin
So, seeing Airi practice super duper hard also made me want to do the same...!
57
Miku
Hehe. Then, I hope you're able to make Airi feel the same way someday!
58
Rin
Huh? The same way?
59
Miku
Just as Airi made you want to do your best, Rin...
60
Miku
She might see you practicing really hard and feel that she needs to also keep trying. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
61
Rin
Airi? After seeing me...?
62
Rin
Yeah, that would be wonderful!
I wanna help Airi as much as I can!
63
Rin
Alright!
64
Rin
In order to help everyone, I'm gonna keep doing my best again tomorrow!
