Wow, that's pretty...

Hehe. Yes, it is.

This is my first time hearing about planetarium weddings, but it's incredible how they can project the night sky onto the walls and ceiling like this...

Yeah, I could look at this all day.

Actually, we've been here for a while now. Wanna head out?

Okay!

Whoa, my eyes...
It's so bright out here...

M-My eyes are also still trying to adjust...
Why don't we sit on that bench for now?

Thank you for coming here with me today, Shiho. I had so much fun last time, I just had to come back...

It's all good.
I managed to buy everything I needed for practice, and I didn't have anything planned afterwards.

Plus, it was worth the trip.
I didn't realize that you could hold weddings at live houses.

Hehe. I wasn't expecting to have the option to play actual instruments on stage.

Me neither.
It's pretty common for bands to come play at a wedding, but...

Huh?

Wait a second... Honami? Shiho?

Huh?

E-Ena...?!

I had a feeling it was you two.
Did you come together?

Yes, we did.
What brings you here, Ena?

I came to see the dresses they have on exhibit.

I was thinking about doing an oil painting of one for my art class. It's hard to capture those ruffles just right.

Have you two been to the dress area yet? It's just over there, and you can apparently try them on.

Oh, I got to try one on last time, so I might...

Aha!
There's the fitting area!

Huh?
That sounded like...

Minori...?!

So, in the fitting area, you can try on all these different dresses!

Wait, hang on...
You can try on literally all of them?!
That's amazing!

<That red one in frame's gorgeous.>
<Oh, the one with the mini skirt's really cute.>

They even have professionals on site to do your hair and makeup, so you can just come as you are and become a beautiful bride. Plus, I'm sure you'll find a dress you like.

<Whoa, they've really got everything!>
<I'd need at least an hour to choose a dress.>

Hehe. This fitting area is the Bridal Fair's main attraction! I hope you all get a chance to try some of these on when you visit!

But since we're here...

I'm gonna take this opportunity to try one on!

<Woohoo!>
<I can't wait to see you in a wedding dress, Minori!>
<Try the pink dress! Or that white and blue one!>

Hehe. You'll just have to wait and see♪

Anyway, I'm gonna go get cha—

Oh... W-Wait, Hanasato...!

Huh?

What do we do about your stream while you're getting changed? You're also getting your hair done, so it's gonna take thirty minutes at the very least...

O-Oh, that's right...!
I thought I'd just get changed in a flash... I didn't think it through at all!

<Thirty minutes? What do I do until then?>
<Things won't be the same without you, Minori.>

Oh...

R-Right...
A stream with no one talking does sound bad...

<Oh, does that mean this is gonna be the Nene Show for the next thirty minutes?>

Huh?

<Hey, good idea!>
<I wanna hear more about you, Nene!>

M-Me...?!

Slow down, you guys!
Nene isn't a streamer, so asking her to take over all of a sudden is too much...

<Aww!>
<All she'd have to do is talk like she would normally.>
<Still, we shouldn't force her.>

Uhh...

I-If it's just for a little bit, then...

What?!

I mean, I'm trying to become a professional actress, so I do sorta need to be able to improvise if there are people who want me to...

B-But are you sure...?!
You don't look so good right now...!!!

<So, the Nene Show's happening?!>
<Can you talk about PXL?>
<Awesome!>

<She's gonna take over?>
<What are you gonna talk about?>

S-So many comments are coming in...!

Th-They want me to talk that much...?

I-If that's the case, Hanasato, I'll take over for now...! Feel free to go get changed...!

O-Okay...

(I-Is she really gonna be okay...?
She looked like she was preparing to go into battle just now...)

Alright, what should I talk about...?

<How did you and Minori first meet?>
<What's Minori like in real life?>
<What's your personal impression of Minori?>

Oh, interesting...
Most of you seem to want me to talk about Hanasato...

Th-Then, let's get started...
We can call this segment...
“Ask Me Whatever You Like About Hanasato”...

O-Or something...

<Yay! A surprise segment!>
<Instant classic!>
<This one needs to be archived forever.>

Hahaha...

So...
I guess I should start by talking about how we first met, huh?

But that means talking about Hoshi...
I'd have to talk about another one of my friends, and how we attend different schools...

W-Wait...
I'm not supposed to talk too much about my private life, am I...?

(Th-There's smoke coming out of Nene's head!)

(What do I do...?! Everyone was looking forward to hearing her talk, but she's totally starting to panic...!)

(Is it really okay for me to go get changed right now?!)

Minori!

Huh...?

Shiho? Honami? Ena?
You guys were all here?!

Yeah, we just happened to run into each other a second ago. Wait...

Sorry, were you in the middle of doing a stream? It looked like you were talking towards your phone just now...

Y-Yeah, the thing is...!
I'm having a friend temporarily take over for me, but...

We really didn't know. Sorry for interrupting.

We'll move to a different area, so please feel free to continue streaming.

Th-Thanks, I really appreciate it!

Let's all talk the next chance we...

Wait a second...
All of us... Talking...

S-Sorry, but I need to ask you all for a really big favor!

Whoa, you scared me.

How can we help, Hanasato?

S-So...!
If possible...!

Would you be willing to help my friend answer questions about me during her segment?

Answer questions about you...?

Now I see...
So Kusanagi's over there doing what she can.

Y-Yeah...
But...

It looks like she's really at her limit, so I can't just leave her!

Right...

Then, okay...
I can help as long as I don't have to show my face in front of the camera.

R-Really?!

I mean, we can't really leave Kusanagi to fend for herself like this.

I don't know how much I'll be able to contribute, but I promise to do my best...

*Sigh*
I figure you two would be able to cover things...

But I guess we're all in this together.

Honami! Ena!
Thank you both so much...!

Then, please help her! I'm gonna go get changed as fast as I can!

Okay, have fun.

Let's go help Kusanagi, shall we?

Alright, so now...!

Three of Hanasato's friends will be joining me as I keep answering questions about her...!

Nice to meet you all.

<Cool!>
<An all-star lineup of Minori's friends?!>
<I can't believe so many have gathered here!>

(Their offer sort of took me by surprise...)

(But I really appreciate the help.
Acting is one thing, but being an MC's a whole different story.)

(Still, how to move this conversation along...?)

(I've talked to Mochizuki and Hinomori before, but really haven't with Shinonome...)

Can you tell us what you've been talking about up to this point, Kusanagi?

Oh, so... I've been answering questions that Hanasato's viewers have about her.

About her?

Yes.
What my friendship with her has been like, what we've done together...

Your friendship, huh...?

In my case, we just started out as classmates. We were in the same class together during our first year.

Oh, really?

So... What was your first impression of her?

My first impression...? Well...

Mostly that she kept coming over to talk to me...

It doesn't sound like you were a fan.

It's not like that.
Back then, I sort of just preferred to be by myself.

But as time went on, we gradually got to know each other better. We started having lunch together, she showed me the ropes of the animal caretaker committee...

And we even went to the zoo together to tend to real animals.

<Oh, she talked the other day about how she went to the zoo with a friend!>
<That was you?!>

Taking care of real animals at a real zoo...? That sounds like a lot of fun.

So, since we're on the subject, can you tell us more about what you guys did?

We mostly just cleaned their pens and fed them.

Actually, when Minori tried to feed the shoebill they had there, he ended up completely ignoring her... I know I shouldn't have laughed, but I couldn't help myself then...

<I can totally see that happening.>
<As bad as I feel for her, that's a really cute story.>

But they did become closer at the end.
Best friends, in her words.

Hehe. She's best friends with a shoebill?

But I can sort of picture it.
Minori's silly and clumsy, but in such a cute way.

I got to know her when we went to SpoJoy Park together. When we went rollerblading, she ended up going for a tumble while trying to help this other friend of mine.

What?
W-Was she okay?

Yeah, she didn't get hurt.
If anything, she was more worried about my friend.

Hehe. That definitely sounds like her.
She's always doing her best for the sake of others, but in a slightly funny way...

Actually, something similar happened just the other day.

This dog and his owner were preparing to compete in a disc dog competition, but the owner ended up getting injured. To my surprise, Minori volunteered to take his place.

Huh?! How does that happen?!

(Thank goodness...
I wasn't sure how this was gonna go at first, but we've managed to get a good conversation going.)

<I'm hearing about so many of these things for the first time!>
<It's fun to hear all these stories about Minori.>

(And I'm really glad that Hanasato's fans seem to be enjoying themselves.)

(But also...)

(I had no idea that she was friends with so many different people.)

(Thirty minutes won't be enough at the rate we're going. We could easily do this for a whole hour.)

Oh, Kusanagi, I'd like to hear about any stories that you have.

Huh? A-Any that I have?

I wanna hear too.
Tell us about what you and Minori have done together.

O-Okay...
I don't know if I'll be able to tell this story right...

But I got my biggest impression of her when...
