Part 1

1
Luka
We can all keep going, right?
2
Miku
*Nod*
Let's go all out!
3
MEIKO
Okay!
Between Worlds
4
Luka
They're practicing together again today.
5
Len
It's so cool how they're all in a band together!
6
Rin
I know, right?! They're all really good and work in perfect sync!
7
Luka
That must be the result of all their hard work.
8
Luka
After all, they needed to practice in order to help Ichika and the others after they set out to become professional musicians.
9
Luka
You're still practicing, Miku...?
10
MEIKO
You've been working so hard. I hope you've been taking breaks here and there.
11
Miku
I have.
I know what fatigue does to your concentration, so I'm being careful.
12
MEIKO
That's good to hear.
13
Luka
Still, you seem to be going about things somewhat differently compared to before.
14
Luka
Is it because the girls decided to go pro together?
15
Miku
Basically.
16
Miku
How they're going to pursue that goal is entirely up to them, but one simple fact is that they'll need to become better performers.
17
Miku
Which is why I want to do the same.
18
Luka
They're very lucky to have you as their senior.
19
MEIKO
And we'll need to follow suit since we're in the same shoes as you.
20
MEIKO
So, Miku, why don't the three of us have a quick session?
21
Miku
Yes, that'd be great!
22
Len
Oh, right! That SEKAI's me, Rin and KAITO hadn't arrived yet, huh?
23
Luka
Yes, that's right.
24
Luka
Rin was the final piece necessary to have their band mirror the girls'.
25
Luka
That SEKAI's Miku seemed so happy about having a fourth person join them.
26
Miku
Oh, why don't we play with the same instruments as the girls? It'd be great to play the songs they've been practicing too.
27
Rin
That does sound like fun♪
Nice idea, Miku-P!
28
Miku
Would that be alright, Luka, MEIKO?
29
Luka
Not a problem.
Count us in, MEIKO.
30
MEIKO
Okay, here we go.
31
MEIKO
One, two, three, four!
32
Rin
I love how Miku's nickname is Miku-P♪
33
Len
That reminds me of when you copied her for a little while, Rin.
34
Rin
Yeah, Miku got on board right away and even started calling me Rin-P.
35
Luka
Hehe. The way you two talked that time was so adorable.
36
Len
Haha. Totally!
37
Len
Anyway, after Rin, KAITO and I arrived.
38
Luka
With regards to that SEKAI, the fight Rin and Len had left a very big impression on me.
39
Len
Oh...
40
Rin
I remember that! He became worried that she was practicing way too hard, right?
41
Len
Yeah, and I think it was necessary for the two of them to hash things out.
42
Len
But I wasn't actually that worried.
After all, MEIKO stepped in to mediate.
43
Luka
Oh? I seem to recall a certain someone asking me to go see what was happening because he wanted to know but was too afraid to go himself.
44
Rin
Huh?
45
Len
*Grumble*
46
Len
Uhh... Isn't it great to be able to tell others how you really feel?!
47
Luka
Hehe. I agree with you there.
48
Rin
Oh, I think they're back to playing...
49
Len
Are they practicing their next song?
50
Luka
I think so.
51
Luka
All six of them have been working so hard as a band. I don't think there's been a day when no one played anything since they all came together...
52
Rin
Yeah, and I feel like singing back every time I hear them!
53
Luka
Me too.
54
Luka
I hope we get to have a little session with them someday.
