Morning, Akito!
3

Akito

Listen

Why'd you come over...?
4
Hehe. You guys have begun training for Shinobi Battle, right? I was wondering how you were doing.
5

Akito

Listen

Oh, that.
6

Akito

Listen

Your best friend's nuts.

Tsukasa

Listen

You have everything scheduled down to the minute. Not only that, it says to do “at least” a hundred reps for each of these drills and exercises!

BGM: --:-- / --:-- Play

8

Haruka

Listen

I tried to come up with drills and exercises that you both could do whenever you had a minute, since I know that you're both very busy with rehearsals and singing practice.
9

Haruka

Listen

Oh, I almost forgot to give you these weights. Please put them on whenever you exercise, to maximize your gains.
10

Akito

Listen

Weights?!
11

Haruka

Listen

I also came up with diets for each of you to follow until the day of the event. I wrote down the recipes for everything that you'll be having, along with why I chose them.
12

Tsukasa

Listen

You went that far?!
13

Akito

Listen

She's even having us wear vests and stuff that weigh like ten kilograms apiece.

BGM: --:-- / --:-- Play

14
She got her hands on them?! She just told me about them the other day!
15

Akito

Listen

The other day...?
16

Akito

Listen

Wait, you already knew that she was putting together some really crazy training schedules?
17
Knew? She came to ask for my advice!
18
Even though your goal as a team is to give it everything you have and win, she wasn't sure how hard she'd be allowed to push you and Tenma.
19

Akito

Listen

Seriously, when did this discussion happen?
20
Haruka's really kind, and she likes to look out for others.
21
She's really only just met you guys, so she was worried that she'd take things too far.
22
But I said it'd be worse for her to hold back, since you guys all agreed to form a team together. I figured she should just push it to the limit.
23

Akito

Listen

Push it to the limit, huh...
24
Anyway, she was worried about asking too much of you guys, so I told her...!
25
“I wouldn't underestimate them, Haruka. You really don't need to hold back for those two!”
26
I gave her plenty of encouragement♪
27

Akito

Listen

(What...?!
Just because she isn't the one who has to do all this...!)

Nene

Listen

Morning...
29
Oh, Kusanagi!
Morning!
30

Akito

Listen

Hey.
31

Akito

Listen

Oh, do you guys already know? Tsukasa's going to be in Shinobi Battle with me and this other girl.
32

Nene

Listen

Yeah, he told us.
He even mentioned something about having to follow a really tough training schedule.
33

Nene

Listen

Oh, but he didn't really give any details as to what he'd be doing.
34
You're not gonna believe it.
35
Right, Akito?
Why don't you show her yours?
36

Akito

Listen

Take a look.

37

Nene

Listen

Thanks. Let's see...
38

Nene

Listen

Wait, what? You're doing something every minute...
39

Nene

Listen

Run five kilometers in the morning.
Do three sets of a hundred squats and planks?!
And you have to run again at school?!
40
See? Pretty amazing, right?
41
And it's not just exercises.
It's even got meals and sleep time included, too!
42

Akito

Listen

Why do you sound so proud?
Kiritani's the one who came up with this.
43

Nene

Listen

Umm... A-Are you sure you can handle all this, Shinonome?
44

Akito

Listen

Probably.
45

Nene

Listen

W-Wow...
I'd probably be on the floor after just these morning exercises.
46
That's okay, Kusanagi.
I doubt I'd last more than half a day either!
47

Akito

Listen

Hey.
Pipe down or else.
48
Haha. Okay, I'm sorry!
49
But I know Haruka's taking this really seriously, and you always do your best to stay super fit too, Akito.
50
You both have the drive to do your best, so I have a feeling that you'll be able to come to a good understanding!

51

Haruka

Listen

I designed them with winning in mind, so I hope you'll give them a try.
52

Akito

Listen

(The drive to do our best, huh...)
53

Akito

Listen

(Come to think of it, Kiritani has to work and practice as an idol. And she goes to Miya Girls, which is a lot more demanding academically.)
54

Akito

Listen

(But she still took the time to come up with personalized training schedules for us.)
55

Akito

Listen

(She even asked An for advice...)
56

Akito

Listen

Yeah, I know that Kiritani's serious about this.
57

Akito

Listen

Which means I need to work just as hard, and give her the respect she deserves.
58
That's what I like to hear!
I know you can do it, Akito!
59

Nene

Listen

G-Good luck!
60

Akito

Listen

Yeah.
