That was awesome, Nene☆

Your singing sounds more tra-la-la-la now☆
And it even feels sparkly too♪

O-Okay...

But I think I know a great way to make you sparkle even more☆

Huh?

Check. This. Out...

Ta-da☆ You just need a big smile!
Your voice will feel happier♪
And you'll sparkle even more☆

It'll give everyone watching a big smiley face too!

Really... Okay.
I'll try to keep that in mind.

Yeah☆ We can do it together too...!

Nene!
Tsukasa's asking everyone to gather for a rehearsal♪

Ah, okay...! I'll be right there!

"Come on, everyone!!
Let us sing and dance!!
All for this glorious day!!!!"

So loud...

Tsukasa sounds super psyched today!
Did something good happen to him?

Apparently, his sister and some of her friends will be visiting Phoenix Wonderland today.

So he's all fired up and even said,
"I'm going to put on the greatest show ever!"

Oh, I see...

Come to think of it, Tsukasa sometimes takes time off to look after his sister when she's sick and stuff...

He must really love her a lot!

Well, I guess everyone has one good quality about them.

Hehe.

Hahahaha!
I'm on the roll of all rolls today!

When Saki and her friends watch us perform, all their anxieties will melt away and refresh their spirits for band practice!

Wonderhoy☆
We're right behind you, Tsukasa!

Right, Nene?

I don't particularly care...
It's not like I don't ever try my hardest...

True. So let's give it our all and bring smile to everyone's faces today like we always do.

Hehe! You're all really raring to go☆

I wanna be in lots and lots more shows with everyone too♪

Oh, Rin! You're at the stage today!

Now that you mention it, Rin hasn't been coming to the stage very often, huh? Where were you all this time?

I've been all over the place, performing shows and giving everyone big smiley faces☆

Whoa, that sounds like fun!
I want to perform in different places too,
and make people smile everywhere I go...

Then let's go together next time☆

Together, we can make much, much, MUCH happier shows than ever before♪

Yeah, you've got yourself a deal!

Hmph! We can't lose the spotlight to them!
Let's do one more rehearsal just to be sure!

Just don't overdo it before the actual show.

Whoa...! It's really PXL!

It's been so long since we last came here together.

Wow... I was expecting a lot to have changed, but it's almost all the same.

Doesn't this bring back memories?

So, is Tsukasa waiting for us somewhere?

Yeah! He said he wants to introduce us to the rest of his troupe today!

That's nice. I'm looking forward to that.

Me too! I wonder what they're like♪

Oh, there he is!
Tsukasaaa!

Ah, Saki!

Huh?

Hello, Saki, and everyone from Leo/need!
Welcome to my Phoenix Wonderland!

Hey, Phoenix Wonderland isn't yours...

Ahem! Anyway...!
Allow me to introduce you to my troupe,
the amazing cast of Wonderlands×Showtime!

Oh...!

Huh?!

And everyone, this is our special guest...!
The one I invited here today. My sister...

Yay!! It's Saki!
Wonderhoy☆

What...?!

Emu! I didn't know you were performing in the same shows as my brother!

Huh? Otori...?

I knew she performed in PXL shows, but I had no idea she was in the same troupe as Tsukasa!

Wait... Isn't she in your class, Honami?

Wh-What's that...?!

It's a small world after all.

After getting so worked up about his grand introduction too...

(Oh! That girl... She was the one singing at the park the other day... She's also in Tsukasa's troupe...?)

(Maybe I can ask her for some tips about becoming a better singer...)

E-Excuse me...

Urgh!

Hm? Why are you hiding behind me?

N-No reason...

Um...

I'm sorry about this.
Nene's a little shy around strangers.

Don't worry, she'll be able to converse normally once she gets to know you better. Please give her some time.

...

Hey, since we're all here,
let's all visit some attractions together!

Huh?

I mean, it's not every day I get to meet my classmates at Phoenix Wonderland like this!

Our show starts in the evening anyway.
We have time, right?!

Let's get to know each other by having lots of fun together! That's what being wonderhoy is all about☆

I don't mind.
We already finished rehearsing this morning.

Yes, that's true. Then...
Why don't we show all of you around the park?

Y-Yes, please! I'd love to get to know everyone from Wonderlands×Showtime better too.

Me too!
What about you, Shiho?

What do you say, Shiho...?

Fine by me. I'm here for you today anyway, Saki.

Yaaay! Thank you!

Yeah! Follow us, then! Your epic adventure around Phoenix Wonderland is about to begin☆

Awesome♪

...

<Aww, Nene!
What's with the long face?>

<This is a great chance to make new friends, isn't it?
Bring your smiley face and have some fun☆>

What...?! Rin?!
You'll startle people if they see you like this.
You need to be a little more discreet.

<But, but, but...
I was just so worried about you, Nene!>

I appreciate that. I really do... But I just can't help but feel nervous around people I've never met before...

<Hmmm... Nervous, you say...>

<I know☆ I can be the small voice in your ear that eggs you on to smile and have fun with everyone♪>

Y-You don't have to. Imagine what would happen if someone saw you...

<Don't worry! I'll be super stealthy!
Sneaky sneak☆>

That's not really sneaky at all...

But thank you... I won't be able to open up to them right away, but I'll try to make it happen.
