(Whoa, this stage is huge.)

(And all the seats up to the third deck are filled. This is pretty overwhelming...)

(They seem so far away...)

(And I don't just mean the physical distance between us...)

Hey, some people are walking on stage.

Oh, the opening act, right?
Some no-names.

(The emotional distance too. It's like there's a wall set up between the stage and the stands...)

(But...)

(We're going to tear down that wall and suck them into our world!)

(Ready, everyone?)

(Then, let's go!)

...!
Wait, the drummer's kicking things off?

They've started?

(First, I have to get everybody's interest.)

(Then, we'll grab their hearts together!)

Oh, it's the opening act.

What's this band called again?

We're Leo/need! Thank you all for having us!

(Alright, we're off to a great start.
And the timing on the lights worked like a charm.)

(But...)

(We can still do better. A lot better!)

(We gotta create a huge wave of fun and excitement with our music!)

(More...!)

♪——! ♪————~~~~~!

(Wow, everyone's producing much more energy than normal...!)

(That means I have to take our sound, wrap it all together, and send it to everyone in this arena...!)

(After this chorus, Ichika and Shiho have their solos.)

(They both practiced so hard to blow this audience away.)

(Show them what you've got, Ichika!)

Whoa, listen to that palm-muting!
So crunchy!

(More energy...
We need to get the whole crowd involved!)

(Shiho!)

Look how fast she's slapping!

Who is this bassist...?!

(We can still do better...!)

(We need to put our hearts and souls into our sound, into our performance!)

♪————!

(Ichi and Shiho are totally off the hook...!)

(We gotta ride this wave together!
The four of us can make these next notes explode!)

♪——! ——! ——! ——!

♪————~~~!!

<They nailed it!>

<Keep going, girls!!!>

(...!
More and more people are clapping along now...!)

(We gotta keep sprinting all the way to the finish line!)

(And keep on enjoying...!)

(This moment with you!)

♪————!

♪————

<That was a seamless transition. And Ichika's singing sounds spectacular.>

<Yes, she's maintained the momentum they built with their first song.>

(We need to keep drawing in the audience...)

(And make our performance reverberate deeper and stronger!)

I kinda like them...

Me too...!
Their music really clicks with me for some reason.

(The beginning involves understanding the pain of others and empathizing with them.)

(That feeling of not having your voice heard. That sense of feeling stuck. Like no one is listening. Like you don't matter...)

(The dreadful thought of things going on like this forever.)

(But we're not just here to show empathy.)

(We need to keep the energy going. Like a warm hand reaching out, we'll show them that everything will be alright.)

(Then, we're gonna take them to a place that's filled with light and hope!)

(Wow...)

(It's like the lights, their instruments and singing have all become one, carrying their feelings all together.)

(It's time to make our sound and thoughts ring out! With everything we have!)

Let's go! Together!

♪————!

(Sing harder! Ring it out louder!)

(Fill this entire space with our music. Put our all into this sound!)

(Please...! Reach them...!)

(Forget about everything else, you guys...
Let's enjoy this dreamlike moment together!)

(We're gonna use everything we have into this sound so that you're all able to stand up and move forward tomorrow...!)

(My body feels so hot...)

(Our sound and their cheering are melding together. It's making my entire body shake, like a physical wave of heat coming at us.)

(We need to take this energy and throw it right back at them.)

(I know we still have a lot more to give!)

...!

(I can feel it...)

(I can tell that our music is reaching the entire crowd. And they're responding with everything they have.)

(They're all moving as one. It's like the arena itself is alive.)

(She was right...)

(This energy. The way it's making my heart dance. This is so much fun...!)

(I wanna connect with them more. I want to really move their hearts.)

(I want to show them what Leo/need's music is all about!)

(Their feelings are all so clear to me.)

(This is the strongest they've ever been.)

(My heart is completely theirs.
They've pulled me into their world and shaken me to my core...)

This is what Leo/need can do on stage...

♪————!

People hardly ever cheer for an opening act like this...

Bravo, Mr. Shindo. These girls are a real gem.
