Whoa, this crowd's huge!

It really is!
All the guests must be gathered here.

Yeah.
I'm looking forward to the show. Kusanagi sounded pretty excited about it.

But...

I'm not seeing Minori anywhere.
The show's about to start. Do you think she's still streaming?

Yeah, I figured we'd find her right in the front row by the time the curtains went up.

<Thank you all for your patience.>

<“The Happy Wedding Show” will begin shortly!>

Oh no...
The show's about to start.

She might arrive right after it does.
For now, let's just watch while we wait.

Sounds good...

“A wedding, huh...?”

“I guess I'm sort of interested. But I dunno...”

“He didn't seem all that interested, either. Plus, if we do decide to hold one, it's going to be a lot of work and cost a lot of money...”

“So, I really don't think it's worth the trouble.”

“Oh...?
Are you sure about that?”

“Huh...?
Wh-Who are all of you...?”

“We're the wedding angels!
And we're here to tell you all about how great weddings are!”

“W-Wedding angels...? What are you talking about...?”

“Heh heh heh.
We'll keep showing you the true fun of weddings until you're begging us to stop!”

“Hey, wouldn't that ruin them for her?”

Wow...!
Their costumes are incredible!

I kinda like the idea of angels wearing dresses and tuxedos. It feels like a fresh take.

Yeah, it is a pretty good idea. It doubles as advertisement for the dresses...

Wait, over there! Isn't that...?!

“Deciding not to have a wedding before you even know anything about them would be such a big shame!”

H-Hanasato?!

Wh-What's going on?!
Is she a guest star or something?!

I dunno...
But something must've happened to have her up there.

“That's why we're gonna give you a tour of the wide world of weddings today!”

“Th-The wide world of weddings...?”

“Hehe. It'll be faster just to show you, so let's...!
Go!”

“A-Are we aboard a train...?”

“Our first stop is a train wedding, which involves renting out an actual train and holding a ceremony aboard it!”

“Take a look outside the window.
This special view's meant just for you!”

“Wow, it's so beautiful!
I feel like I'm on vacation...”

“Alright, it's my turn next!
Lemme show you a wedding in the great outdoors!”

Oh, okay...
This is how they're going to show off all these different types of weddings.

Wait, then... Does that mean Hanasato is going to do the same?

That still doesn't really explain why she's on stage, but I'm kinda looking forward to seeing her part now.

“Is this a campground?”

“Yup. You'd be having your wedding outdoors, so you can have a big barbeque while wearing your dress!”

“Really...?!
This is an actual option?!”

“Hey, don't forget about me!
I've got an awesome aquarium wedding coming up for you next!”

“The underwater tunnel acts as the aisle...!”

“It gets even better!
Imagine having the dolphins do tricks while you kiss after saying your vows!”

“Hehe...
I'd be like a movie princess.”

“Hehe. Sounds like you're getting interested.
Next, we have...”

(It's finally my turn next...!)

(I have my lines and dance routine memorized, but I'm still pretty nervous...)

(But I've gotta do this!
This show has to succeed, so that everyone goes home smiling!)

“Hehe. Sounds like you really liked what my wedding had to offer!”

“Yeah, I did!
Thank you!”

(Alright, here we go!)

“Last but not least, me!
I have a really special wedding in store for you!”

Oh...!
It's Minori's turn!

“I'll be showing you a live house wedding!”

“A live house wedding?”

“That's right! They're weddings that involve singing, dancing and having lots of fun with everyone!”

“Just like a...”

“L-Like a...”

...

Huh?
Minori?

Is something wrong? She stopped mid-sentence...

...
Wait, don't tell me Minori...?

(Wh-What do I do?)

(My next line was on the tip of my tongue, but I can't remember all of a sudden!)

(It's the cue for the music to start too.
If I don't do something...)

(I'll end up ruining the entire show!)

Huh?
She's gone all quiet.

Is this a part of the script?
Seems kinda long for a deliberate pause.

...

(Hanasato...)

“Having lots of fun with everyone, huh...”

“Maybe like an idol concert?”

“Huh?”

(Nene doesn't have any lines for this part...)

“The thing is, I met my fiancé for the first time at a live house.”

“We both happened to be fans of the same idol, so we hit it off right away. It's also why I'm really interested in having our wedding at a live house...”

“Granted, I'm not exactly the type to get up on stage while wearing a wedding dress...”

“But I think it'd make for some wonderful memories. Like when we saw that idol's concert...”

“What do you think, Miss Angel?
Do you think I can do what that idol did...?”

“I'm sure of it!”

“So, let me take this opportunity to show you an example of a fun live house wedding!”

“Huh?”

“Everyone!
It's time to start the Happy Wedding Concert!”

“That includes all of you in the audience! Clap with me! Let's all get into a happy mood together!”

“Hey! Hey!”

Hang on... This feels like a real concert.

Haha! This is a great idea!
Hey! Hey!

“Thanks for clapping along with me, you guys! Here we go!”

“♪ーーーー! ♪ーーーー!”

Why don't we clap too, Shiho?

Huh?
No, I don't feel comfortable...

Yeah, I know how you feel.
Normally, it's not really my thing either.

But...

“♪ーーーー! ♪ーーーー!”

I think I'm willing to make an exception today.

...
I guess you have a point.

“I'm just getting started, you guys!
Let's kick it up a notch!”

(Thank goodness...)

(She's doing even better than she did during our final practice run.)

(Also...)

(She's making eye contact with each member of the audience.)

(It's like she's saying, “I see you, and I want you to go home smiling,” to every one of them.)

(It's what makes her performance feel so magical.)

“♪ーーーー! ♪ーー...”

“Thank you guys so much!
This concert wouldn't have gone so well if it weren't for all of you!”

“What did you think?”

“That was really fun!”

“I remember that concert I saw with my fiancé like it happened just yesterday, now.”

“I remember us being so excited that day. We talked about how great the set list and choreography were until the next morning. And our feelings for each other slowly began to grow.”

“Really?
Hehe. That's so great to hear!”

“I've made my decision...
I want to hold a wedding.”

“I want to create more wonderful memories with the person I love!”

“We've been waiting for you to say that!”

“We can cast that spell now, you guys!
Three, two, one... Poof!”

“Wow...!”

“I-I'm in a dress now...!”

“That's right! You made your wish, and your wish took form!”

“My wish took form?”

“This dress is gorgeous...
I'd love to be wearing this when we get married.”

Did she just get changed?!
How?! In that instant?!

That was fast, but I'm sure there's some clever trick involved...

Still, that was incredible!
It really felt like magic.

“Hehe. All that's left is for you to take that big step! Are you ready?”

“Of course!”

“Then, let's go to where your beloved is!”

“And tell him that you want to have a wedding!”

“Okay!”
