Classmates

That was quick.
We have a little time before the ceremony begins.

Classmates

Then, let's go see what the other classes are up to! I wanna introduce you to some of my other friends!

Classmates

Yeah, let's go!

Honami

Listen

*Sigh*
New classrooms always make me feel a little anxious...

Ichika

Listen

I kind of know what you mean.
The view outside looks completely different.

Ichika

Listen

Oh, come to think of it...
Aside from us, our class also includes...

Kohane

Listen

Ichika! Honami!

Honami

Listen

Oh, Kohane...!
Does this mean we're in the same class this year?

Kohane

Listen

Yeah, and I couldn't be happier.
I'm really looking forward to this upcoming year.

Ichika

Listen

I think we are as well.

Honami

Listen

Wait, Kohane...
Have you been a bit short on sleep lately?

Ichika

Listen

Huh?

Kohane

Listen

Oh...

Kohane

Listen

Our team has been practicing a lot recently. We stayed out pretty late last night too. That might be why...

Honami

Listen

I see...

Ichika

Listen

Your team's practices have always seemed really tough, but does this mean you're practicing even harder now?

Kohane

Listen

We are. The practice regimens An's dad put together for us are so tough, but we've been managing...

Honami

Listen

That sounds really difficult...

Kohane

Listen

It is, and I feel exhausted at the end of each day.
But...

Kohane

Listen

I feel motivated to keep trying no matter what.

Kohane

Listen

What we're after...
We know surpassing it won't be easy...

Kohane

Listen

But I don't care how hard the road up ahead is. I'm going to do my absolute best and leave no regrets.

Ichika

Listen

That's really cool, Kohane...

Kohane

Listen

Huh?

Ichika

Listen

How do I put it...?
You've always been hardworking, but you sound really strong now...

Honami

Listen

I agree.
Your resolve to keep persevering sounded ironclad.

Kohane

Listen

Really...?
Hehe. Now I feel a little embarrassed.

Honami

Listen

So, Kohane, good luck.
We'll be rooting for you!

Kohane

Listen

*Nod*
Thanks!

Kohane

Listen

Oh, before I forget to ask...
Which classes are Shiho and Saki in?

Honami

Listen

They're both in Class B.

Honami

Listen

I know. We have a little time on our hands before the opening ceremony starts, so why don't we go see them?

Ichika

Listen

Good call.
Everyone else seems to be doing the same thing...

Kohane

Listen

Oh, sorry...
The teacher actually just asked me to help with something. I need to head over to the office soon.

Honami

Listen

Oh, I see.
Well, we can always go see them some other time.

Kohane

Listen

Yeah, let's!

Hehe. I'm suuuper duper happy about us becoming classmates!

Emu

Listen

We're gonna have so much fun together!

Saki

Listen

Yeah!
Oh, I know! We should make Print Stickers together sometime!

Emu

Listen

Great idea! It's always so much fun to doodle on them and stuff♪ Oh, and I wanna play some games together after!

Saki

Listen

Yeah, I like it!
We could even follow up with a karaoke place, then have parfaits and...

Shiho

Listen

Wait, all in one day?

Shiho

Listen

Besides, we work and have band practice. We don't have much time to be playing around.

Saki

Listen

O-Oh, right...!

Saki

Listen

Oh, Emu, that reminds me...
You guys are gonna start visiting a bunch of different venues and troupes, right?

Emu

Listen

Yup!
We had a long discussion about it, and decided we're gonna go to as many places as we can!

Emu

Listen

We're uhh...! Training together to make our dreams come true!

Shiho

Listen

Training...?

Emu

Listen

Yeah, so I might not have as much time to hang out moving forward...

Emu

Listen

But we're in the same class now, so I wanna spend at least a little time together!

Saki

Listen

Just a little bit!
Pleeease, Shiho!

Shiho

Listen

Whoa...

Shiho

Listen

Fine, just a little...

Emu & Saki

Listen

Woohoo!!!

Miku

Listen

<It's kind of funny how powerless Shiho is when it comes to those two.>

Honami

Listen

Hehe. Yes, it is.

Saki

Listen

Oh, Ichi, Hona!

Shiho

Listen

Are you here to see us?

Emu

Listen

Hi, everyone!
Come on in!!!

Honami

Listen

Hehe. I didn't know that you were also in Class B, Emu.

Emu

Listen

Yup!
I'm a little sad we're not together again...

Emu

Listen

But let's keep hanging out like we always have!

Honami

Listen

Of course. We can even draw with Ena or spend more time with Mizuki and Ms. Yoisaki.

???

Listen

Oh!
Hi, everyone!!!

Ichika

Listen

Wait, that voice...!
