I hope someone's here...

ーーーー♪

Oh...

One, two, three... And pose!

Hehe. How was that? Good?

Yeah, that felt pretty solid.

Thank goodness!
Then, let's do it just like that for the show...

KAITO, Len.

Huh? Haruka?!

Good evening. Sorry to catch you two so late.

I wasn't expecting to see you two practicing at this time. And your hard work seems to be paying off.

Thanks, Haruka.

I'm so excited about my next show that I've been having Len help me like this as I practice.

Is it going to be special in some way?

Hehe. Yeah, to KAITO.

You know how he's been helping us come up with ideas for our shows and taking care of everything behind the scenes?

Well, as a small token of our appreciation, we're handling everything for his next show as the producers.

I see...

It certainly sounds like it's going to be a very special occasion for you, KAITO.

It is. Also, since Len and the others are going to all this trouble for me, I need to do my best too.

Still, I do those things because I want to. It feels kind of strange to be thanked for that.

They're my friends, but I'm also their fan.
So, if anything, I should be the one thanking them for giving me the opportunity to help them show the audience just how wonderful they are.

Um, KAITO?
Like we're always saying, we feel the same way for you...

Y-Yes, I know!
Which is why...

I'm going to take all your kindness and put on the best show that I possibly can!

Hehe. Break a leg.

So, Haruka, what brings you here this late?

Oh, the thing is, there's something I was hoping to ask you two.

What is it that makes MORE MORE JUMP! special...?

Yes, that's right. I remembered something that the producer for ASRUN said when I was still with them...

I realized that showing everybody what makes us special should play a key role in terms of which offers for work we accept.

But I'm having trouble finding the right words to describe what actually makes us special. I came here to get your objective opinions...

Hmm... Well...

You girls are all wonderful, and you have many special things to offer...

But I think MORE MORE JUMP! is so appealing because you're all able to just be yourselves in front of your fans.

Be ourselves...

Yes. People tend to be drawn to idols because they have such a dazzling charm to them.

But there's more than just that to you and the others, Haruka.

You're all doing your absolute best to spread hope to others.

And when you were faced with a seemingly insurmountable challenge, you found a way to overcome it with the help of your fans.

You showed your fans things that you normally wouldn't.

Right.
That wasn't exactly our finest moment, but...

But I believe that's what makes you girls special.

That's what makes MORE MORE JUMP! so appealing to your fans. They get to see you as you all are, and feel close to you...

I have to think that seeing you all try your best inspires them to do the same.

To do the same...

Now that you mention it, some of our viewers posted similar comments during our stream.

Really?

Yeah. One person said, “I feel so at home with you girls.” A couple even said, “I feel a lot more motivated seeing you do your best,” and, “Working with you four makes me feel like I can actually do it”...

(So... Just being ourselves, and having all these close interactions with everyone...)

(Those are the reasons why we're able to spread hope to others as idols.)

(That's what makes MORE MORE JUMP! special.)

Thank you both very much, Len, KAITO...

You two helped me find my answer.

We did?!
I'm glad we were able to help.

And we'll be looking forward to seeing where you go for work next.

Thanks, we promise to bring back some good news.
