98... 99... 100.

Phew. That should do it for this morning's training.

(Today is the day MORE MORE JUMP! has its first-ever livestream...)

(I need to be focused...)

Okay! The phone should be good right here!
Everyone happy with their hair and makeup?

Yes. I'm ready.

I'm a bit nervous, but let's give it our best.

We've got a script, so we'll be fine as long as we do it the way we practiced! Well...

Urgh...

Looks like someone isn't quite ready.

Are you alright, Minori?

O-One sheep... Two sheep...

Minori, isn't counting sheep for when you're trying to fall asleep?

Hey, hold on...
I mean, to be fair, I'm nervous too and...

There might be a lot of fans upset with the way we're trying to return to being idols.

But this is what we decided, so we gotta see it through!

That's right. We need to do our best to explain our feelings on this stream!

Yes!

O-Okay! Let's do it!

Hello, everyone. Haruka Kiritani here...

And I'm Airi Momoi!
Thank you for joining us today!

<I really get to see Haruka again!>
<Interesting grouping. What are your plans?>
<I thought you retired!>

Whoa! So many comments already...!

This is amazing...

Hey, you two, hurry up and do your introductions...!

Oh, that's right...!

Shizuku Hinomori. I'm pleased to be here.

<It's Shizuku!>
<Shizuku... You're as beautiful as ever...!>

I-I-I'm Minori Hanasato!
Nice to meet you all!

<Who's that?>
<Never seen her before.>
<Put Haruka back on...!>

Urgh...

Don't worry, everyone's first time is always like this.

We're here to give everyone an important message.

<A message?>
<What could it be?>

We apologize for resigning as idols so suddenly before...

Our disappearance may have caused some of you to worry about us. That is why we'd like to start with an explanation.

<I've been wondering about that.>
<Why'd you quit?>

We each had our own reason for resigning when we did...

But the one thing we all had in common was the fact that we'd lost confidence in ourselves as idols...

However, thanks to one of our members, we all managed to regain our passion and decided to become idols once again.

<So you're coming back?!>
<Yay!>

<Are you all returning to your old groups?>

We're very sorry, but we decided that we won't be returning to our old groups...

We'll be starting a new group of our own with the four members you see here.

<What? Why?>
<I feel bad for the others that worked so hard...>
<You're bailing on your old groups?>

Those are great questions and we understand that many are going to feel like that...

We're all incredibly grateful to those who helped us get to where we are today, and hope to support them in any way we can.

However, we've decided to take different paths after talking things over with our old group members.

<But why?>
<Did you get into an argument and can't go back?>

...!

<There were some rumors going around about Shizuku.>
<Hey, knock it off with the rude comments, guys!>
<Is it true you left because you were being bullied?>

I...

Th-That's not it at all!

Haruka, Shizuku, and Airi were all worrying so much about whether or not they should keep being idols...!

But they decided they wanted to keep giving their fans hope, so we joined forces!

<And who are you? lol.>

Urgh...

Minori is an irreplaceable member of our group.

She may not have experience as an idol, but I believe she's going to shine brighter than any of us one day. Please give her your support.

Haruka...

<She's some kind of super idol in disguise?>
<She doesn't have that aura, you know...?>

<So where are you going from here?>

We've decided to start giving you a peek into our daily activities to tell you more about ourselves.

So leave a comment if there's anything you want to know! If it's something we can answer, we will!

<What agency are you with? MoriPro?>

We're not affiliated with any agency.
We plan on freelancing.

<What?! You're not joining an agency?!>
<You can be a freelance idol?>

Yes. And we fully understand that it won't be easy.

But with your support, we believe that we can accomplish anything.

This time around, the four of us are going to see things through.

We hope MORE MORE JUMP! can count on your support!

<As long as I get to see Haruka, I'm happy!>
<I'm behind you all the way, Shizuku!>
<Good luck, Airi...!>

Oh...!

That's great...!!

Well done, everyone.

We really went off-script there, didn't we...?

Yeah. And it makes sense that so many people would be surprised at us coming back so soon after quitting...

So we'll have to do our best to regain their trust.
We want them to be happy with supporting us.

Yeah! Let's do our best!

In that case, how about we all have our meeting in SEKAI tomorrow?

I want to come up with a solid plan for what sort of videos MORE MORE JUMP! is going to make.

I agree. I'd like to hear what Miku and the others have to say as well.

I'm all for it!
We need to do more, more, more!

Phew...

(I was really nervous, but I'm glad we were able to say everything we wanted to...)

(I feel like not being able to answer some of their questions might have worried a few fans.)

(But it's just like Haruka said... We have to do our best so our fans will want to support us.)

Gasp! Is that Shizuku Hinomori?
She's as gorgeous as ever...!

She always looks so perfect!
I bet she looks that good all the time.

Oh...

I say we go with this as your image. It'll be a great selling point...

...!

(Everyone is expecting me to be perfect...)

(Right. I have to make sure not to let them down...)
