(Even during today's event, I couldn't get a good response...)

Junior High School Akito

Junior High School Akito

Listen

(But I still haven't been able to reach anyone yet.)

(Seriously, who's singing...?)
15

Junior High School Akito

Listen

(I don't recognize him...
And he doesn't seem all that used to singing.)
16

Junior High School Akito

Listen

(He seems pretty affluent, but he's singing like there's no tomorrow...)

Singing together like this has made it all clear.)

Akito, about this part...
I feel like we should sing it together instead of you going solo.

Yeah, that might make it sound more powerful. Let's give it a try...
46

Junior High School Akito

Listen

Toya, that reminds me.
How about we try entering into an event?

Junior High School Akito

Listen

(I feel like I'm able to do so much better when I sing with him.)

Junior High School Akito

Listen

(His perfect pitch and ability to maintain a steady rhythm are important, but he understands what a song is about and uses his voice to hit you with it...)

Junior High School Akito

(My guess is he's doing that all subconsciously...)
