MEIKO

Listen

Okay, here's your Viennese coffee refill.
2

KAITO

Listen

Thank you!
Mmm... This smells delicious!
You really do make the best coffee in the world, MEIKO!
3

MEIKO

Listen

I know what you're doing.
No amount of praise is getting you any ice cream today.
4

KAITO

Listen

What?!
H-Haha. I was just giving you my honest opinion...

Akito

Listen

Hey.
6

KAITO

Listen

Ah, Akito! Welcome!
7

MEIKO

Listen

Oh, are you by yourself today?
We figured that you'd all come over together since we heard that you'd be participating in an event today.
8

Akito

Listen

Yeah, about that...
I came to practice on my own after we split in the evening.
9

KAITO

Listen

Really?! You're going to practice?! Right after an event?! Your work ethic really is admirable, Akito.
10

KAITO

Listen

Between the walls in SEKAI coming down and the tree in the plaza growing bigger, quite a lot has been happening recently...
11

KAITO

Listen

These changes must be happening because of the passion you and the others possess! I'm really looking forward to seeing what happens next!
12

Akito

Listen

Passion...
13

MEIKO

Listen

Akito?
14

Akito

Listen

Oh, don't mind me...
15

KAITO

Listen

Did something happen...?
16

Akito

Listen

...
Nothing major happened. It's just...
17

KAITO

Listen

Why don't you tell me what's on your mind?!
18

Akito

Listen

No, again...
19

KAITO

Listen

You don't have to tell me if you're not comfortable, but it might feel good to get things off your chest. I mean, we've been through this before, haven't we?
20

KAITO

Listen

So, why don't you tell me all about what's bothering you?
21

Akito

Listen

Alright...
Then, if you don't mind listening for a second...
22

KAITO

Listen

Of course!
23

KAITO

Listen

I see...
You're not feeling as driven as before...

24

Akito

Listen

My brain knows that I need to keep doing what I can to reach our next goal.
25

Akito

Listen

But it's like my heart isn't keeping up with it...
26

MEIKO

Listen

Akito...
27

MEIKO

Listen

I don't think there's any reason for you to be feeling so anxious.
28

Akito

Listen

Huh?
29

MEIKO

Listen

You've been doing absolutely everything you can to make a very big dream come true, right?
30

MEIKO

Listen

Your heart may be telling you that it needs some time to recharge right now.
31

Akito

Listen

Yeah, that also crossed my mind...
32

MEIKO

Listen

Also, from where I'm standing, it seems only natural that you're not chasing this new dream with the same amount of fervor as before.
33

KAITO

Listen

Wait, why's that?
34

MEIKO

Listen

Because his dream of surpassing RAD WEEKEND was born out of actually witnessing that event. Seeing it is what inspired him, no?
35

MEIKO

Listen

But he and the others are now trying to “stand on top of the world”, and I'm not sure they quite know what that means yet.
36

MEIKO

Listen

This dream was born under far different circumstances. So, it seems only natural not to go after it in the same way as before.
37

Akito

Listen

...
38

Akito

Listen

(I get what MEIKO's saying...)
39

Akito

Listen

(But... That doesn't really explain why I haven't been able to perform at my best lately...)
40

KAITO

Listen

Hmm... Let's say MEIKO's right...
41

KAITO

Listen

If seeing RAD WEEKEND is what lit that fire inside of you all those years ago, then you may just need something to help rekindle that flame, Akito.
42

Akito

Listen

Something to rekindle the flame inside of me...?

Sound Effect: Play

43

Akito

Listen

(But what are the odds of me seeing another event or anything like that again...)
44

KAITO

Listen

It may actually be hiding right under your nose.
45

Akito

Listen

Huh?
46

KAITO

Listen

To be fair, I can't really say what that is yet...
47

KAITO

Listen

But you understand how big the world is, yes, Akito?

BGM: --:-- / --:-- Play

48

KAITO

Listen

You began dreaming of surpassing RAD WEEKEND after just happening to come across it.
49

KAITO

Listen

So, you might find something else that rekindles the flame inside of you.
50

KAITO

Listen

The world is a big place. It's full of things that we don't know about and opportunities we can't imagine.
51

KAITO

Listen

So, as long as you strive towards your goal of standing on top of the world, I'm sure you'll come across that special something eventually.
52

Akito

Listen

...
53

Akito

Listen

(The world is a big place, huh...?)
54

Akito

Listen

You might have a point there...
55

Akito

Listen

Which is rare of you, KAITO.
56

KAITO

Listen

What?! Rare?! You must be joking!
I'm always trying to give the best advice I can to all of you...
57

MEIKO

Listen

He's saying that because of how you act on a daily basis.
58

KAITO

Listen

No, MEIKO, not you too!
59

Akito

Listen

(I'll come across it eventually, huh...?)
60

Akito

Listen

(Obviously, believing that isn't going to get me out of my current situation. But...)
61

Akito

Listen

(It does beat feeling anxious and running around in circles.)
62

Akito

Listen

(In any case, I just gotta keep moving forward.)
63

Akito

Listen

(Like I've been doing until now.)
