Emu

Listen

Rise and shine!
It's another fun and exciting morni-morni-morning!
2

Emu

Listen

I wonder what's for breakfast♪
3

Shosuke

Listen

Ah, Emu, you're awake.
4

Keisuke

Listen

You're up earlier than usual today.
5

Emu

Listen

Yup!
We've got practice this morning, so I wanna head out as soon as... Huh?
6

Emu

Listen

What are you guys doing?
The table's all covered in papers...
7

Keisuke

Listen

Ah, these are the attendance figures for last month, as well as the results of our customer satisfaction survey.
8

Shosuke

Listen

They just came in yesterday, so we've been going over them.
9

Emu

Listen

Attendance figures, and a survey...?
10

Emu

Listen

Can I look too?!
11

Emu

Listen

I wanna know how many visitors the park got, and how happy it made them... Can I see?!
12

Keisuke

Listen

Then, why don't you start with these figures...

Sound Effect: Play

13

Emu

Listen

Hmm...?
So many numbers...
14

Shosuke

Listen

To be fair, it's hard to figure anything out just at a glance.
15

Shosuke

Listen

These are last month's attendance figures. This section separates our guests by age and gender. And if you compare these numbers to the previous month...
16

Emu

Listen

...!
Wow! They went up a whole lot!
17

Keisuke

Listen

Yes.
It's clear that the 30th Anniversary Show ended up becoming a big hit.
18

Keisuke

Listen

It was also good how we advertised that the ever-popular Phoenix Stage would be doing a show with Wonderlands×Showtime...
19

Shosuke

Listen

And you all did an astounding job.
As a result, the Phoenix Stage has seen a new influx of fans.
20

Emu

Listen

Really?! Woohoo!
21

Shosuke

Listen

Speaking of which, we also got the survey results for the 30th Anniversary Show.
We were planning to send them over to everyone involved later, but... Would you rather look now?
22

Emu

Listen

Yeah, I wanna see!
23

Shosuke

Listen

(The Phoenix Stage is our chief moneymaker, but the Wonder Stage just keeps getting more and more popular...)
24

Shosuke

Listen

(Truth be told, Emu and the rest of Wonderlands×Showtime really delivered for us again.)
25

Keisuke

Listen

(As the operators of this park, we need them to stay as long as possible.)
26

Keisuke

Listen

(But...)
27

Emu

Listen

Let's see...
“'The Happy Phoenix' was great!
I hope we get to see another showing of it someday!”
28

Emu

Listen

Yeah, I wanna do it again too!
29

Emu

Listen

Now, what did this next person say...?

Sound Effect: Play

30

Emu

Listen

“My heart ached so much when I saw how conflicted Rio was between wanting to save his mother and not wanting to sacrifice his friend, the phoenix!”
31

Emu

Listen

“It was amazing how the Cowardly Canary sang with everything she had despite being so scared. She inspired me to also do my best even when I'm afraid.”
32

Emu

Listen

Hehe...! That's so great...!
33

Emu

Listen

(Tsukasa and Nene both worked really, really hard on their roles.)
34

Emu

Listen

(I'm really glad to see that their performances made everyone smile!)
35

Emu

Listen

(They're both much sparklier compared to before. I bet they're going to keep sparkling more and more.)
36

Emu

Listen

(And go out into the world...)
37

Emu

Listen

(I might have to say goodbye to them soon...)

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

38

Emu

Listen

(That really does make me sad...)

Sound Effect: Play

39

Len

Listen

Um, Emu... You don't have to make yourself smile if something is making you feel sad!
40

Emu

Listen

(What Len said was so thoughtful...)
41

Emu

Listen

(But...)

Sound Effect: Play

42

Nene

Listen

Y-Yes, we probably will have to go our separate ways in order to pursue our dreams...
43

Nene

Listen

The thought of that happening is really sad and makes my heart sink...
44

Nene

Listen

But when that happens...
I have a feeling that it'll be the moment when we take a big step towards achieving our goals...
45

Emu

Listen

Nene...
46

Nene

Listen

So... So...!
47

Nene

Listen

So, when that happens... I'd like it if we could all smile and laugh in support of one another...!
48

Emu

Listen

(I want to give them a proper goodbye with a smile...)
49

Emu

Listen

(I want to be able to say, “I'm really happy for you guys! Good luck!”)
50

Emu

Listen

(So...)

Tsukasa

Listen

Ah...! “My eyes began welling up during that scene when Rio cried.”
52

Tsukasa

Listen

*Nod*
They empathized with Rio just that much! I couldn't be happier!
53

Nene

Listen

“The Cowardly Canary put on such a wonderful performance. I started to think that she was a real bird partway through. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.”
54

Rui

Listen

It really is nice to hear back from the audience like this.
55

Nene

Listen

Yeah.
This show was really worth the effort.
56

Tsukasa

Listen

Yes, and I believe that's the last of the surveys!
57

Tsukasa

Listen

Thank you for bringing these with you, Emu! The motivation we gained today will serve us well tomorrow!
58

Emu

Listen

Hehe! I know, right?!
I'm really glad they let me borrow these!
59

Tsukasa

Listen

Still, the 30th Anniversary Show truly proved a great experience.
60

Nene

Listen

Yeah...
I feel the same way.
61

Nene

Listen

To be perfectly honest, if we hadn't done this show, I probably never would've realized that my singing was missing something.

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

62

Nene

Listen

I understand now that I need to keep learning and experiencing new things if I want to improve as an actress...
63

Rui

Listen

Hehe. I agree.
You both grew quite a bit through this show.
64

Emu

Listen

Yeah!
You two sparkled like crazy before, but you were really dazzling this time around!
65

Emu

Listen

Like a super duper sparkle nova!
66

Nene

Listen

That sounds like a character's finishing move...
67

Tsukasa

Listen

Still, what you said about experiencing new things... That's a tricky one...
68

Tsukasa

Listen

Emu's brothers kindly extended us an opportunity this time, but we probably won't be receiving them frequently...
69

Emu

Listen

Wait, they did this for us?
70

Tsukasa

Listen

Ah, that's right...!
We were so busy that I didn't get a chance to tell you.
71

Tsukasa

Listen

After our last ambassadorial performance, I actually went to ask them if we could somehow keep putting on more.
72

Nene

Listen

What?! You did?
73

Tsukasa

Listen

Yes. Unfortunately, they said it wouldn't be possible...
74

Tsukasa

Listen

But I think they asked us to be in the 30th Anniversary Show because of what I said.
I'll need to thank them again the next time I get a chance.
75

Emu

Listen

(I didn't know he went to talk to them...)
76

Emu

Listen

(That must be just how much he wants to keep learning and performing in different places...)
77

Nene

Listen

Yeah, you have a point...
I doubt they can keep serving up stuff for us on silver platters.
78

Nene

Listen

Which means we have to start thinking about what we can do ourselves...
79

Tsukasa

Listen

Right.
We can start by seeing if we can do more with our shows at the Wonder Stage.
80

Tsukasa

Listen

What else is there...?
We could each start attending short workshops on our own time...
81

Tsukasa

Listen

But long-term workshops and collaborations with other troupes will prove a challenge. They'll likely conflict with our own shows...
82

Tsukasa

Listen

However...

83

Tsukasa

Listen

If only we could...
84

Emu

Listen

...
85

Emu

Listen

Then, let's try putting our heads together! We might figure something out that way!
86

Emu

Listen

You said it before yourself, Tsukasa.
“We can overcome anything as long as we work together! That's what Wonderlands×Showtime is all about!”
87

Tsukasa

Listen

Yes, you're right...
88

Nene

Listen

Hehe. Thanks for that, Emu.
89

Nene

Listen

I was thinking we could discuss that now, but...
We need to start on our basic training for the day.
90

Tsukasa

Listen

Agreed. We mustn't deviate from our daily regimen! We can discuss this matter another day!
91

Emu

Listen

Yeah!
92

Rui

93

Rui

Listen

When the time comes for them to say that they wish to leave the Wonder Stage, will you try to follow in their footsteps?
94

Emu

Listen

Nope.
95

Emu

Listen

Because my dream is to protect Grandpa's amusement park and keep it the way it is.
96

Emu

Listen

And make a place where everyone smiles!
97

Rui

Listen

(Emu's mind is already made up...)
98

Rui

Listen

(While...)

99

Rui

Listen

I'm having trouble letting go.
100

Rui

Listen

Sorry, everyone...
Would you mind if I said something?
101

Tsukasa

Listen

Hm? Is something wrong, Rui?
102

Rui

Listen

Apologies, but I'll have to leave practice early today. I have an appointment after this.
103

Nene

Listen

You do? That's fine, but... You made an appointment?
104

Rui

Listen

Yes.
105

Rui

Listen

A very important appointment.
