Oh, it was the first movie club meeting we've had in a while, but it lasted longer than I expected...

I'm guessing the others have started practicing for... Hm?

W-Wahhh!!
Too high! Too high!

Wow! That's so awesome!
That suit lets you jump super high!

Hehehe. I've made several improvements to the Star Training Suit so that you'll now be able to leap up to the stage with little to no effort.

I don't care! How do I stop this thing?! Rui, let me down!!

*Sigh*
They're at it again.

Hey, guys. Sorry for being late...

Hi, Nene!

Oh, you got here sooner than I expected. Did your club meeting end already?

Yeah. All we did was write up some activity reports. More importantly, he...

Tell me how to stop this thing right now!!

Could you please stop that thing so that he'll shut up...?

Ugh... My head's still bouncing up and down...

Anyway, Tsukasa's finally back, so can we get started with practice?

Hey, don't you know what I went through just now?!

Will you shut... Well, you seem okay now, so let's get started...

Oh, Nene!
There's something we need to talk about before we start!

There is?

Yes, indeed.
It's actually just about time for...

Ah, there they are.

Huh? They...?

Hang on, they're Emu's...!

Big bros!
Welcome♪

Guh!
What did I tell you about tackling people?!

Ah, I know that feeling all too well...

Them being here means...
Is this about us becoming ambassadors?

Yes, you are correct.

Allow me to explain once more.
Phoenix Wonderland would like you to become its ambassadors and travel outside of the park to promote it.

Yes, and you can both rest easy because your park is in good hands! We promise not to disappoint!

But there is one question I'd like to ask before we proceed. Promoting the park does seem necessary, but why make us ambassadors?

Initially, we were going to use social media as a promotional platform, but now you wish to have us travel outside of the park to promote it. Why is that?

Ah, that's because we've changed our target demographic.

You have...?

Fortunately, your little stunt helped attract the younger generation of guests we were after.

Which is why we've decided to set our sights on those living in other parts of the country.

This park is at the heart of Shibuya, so it is able to attract many guests from within the city. However, we rarely ever see guests traveling great distances to visit.

Compared with other parks, our IP share is on the low side. As a result, we don't have a reliable way of attracting guests from other parts of the country.

Partnering with Riley Entertainment remedies some of these issues, but we've decided not to rely so much on existing IPs.

I see...
And you wish to make us the faces of the park because of the success we found through social media.

Indeed. Rumors of how you're all high school students have even begun spreading, which has only added to your fame.

Today, we'd like to relay the details of yesterday's meeting, as well as where your first stop will be.

Fantastic! So the first stop on my road to stardom has already been decided!

Yay!!
And?! Where do we get to go?!

Yes, your first destination will be Phoenix Ocean Resort.

What?! Phoenix Ocean Resort?! The five-star hotel...?!

I see. Phoenix Hotel & Resort being an Otori Group subsidiary would make things quite a bit easier for us as well.

Wh-Why do you know all that, Rui?

Hehe. I decided to look up what I could about the Otori Group while I was coming up with ideas for our last show.

A five-star resort would be the perfect stage for a star such as myself!

But I feel like people who go to fancy resorts aren't really the same as the people who like going to amusement parks...

That shouldn't be an issue.
We're interested in not the hotel-goers but those coming to visit the beach.

Huh? What do you mean?

Phoenix Ocean Resort has an open-air Beach Stage that already attracts a lot of visitors due to it being a sort of public amphitheater.

We would like you to put on a show that is not only family friendly, like the ones you are already doing, but also appeals to a wider audience.

I see.
I can't wait to see the Beach Stage...!

I came across some information regarding this stage. Apparently, it's literally built where the sea meets the sand.

Hehehe... We should be able to include some effects that we normally don't get to...

Yeah! A show by the sea!
Yay!! Cannonball!!

Hey, will all of you settle down a little? Try not to forget that you're ambassadors for this park.

We know!
We promise to give you the best show possible!

You're scheduled to perform for three days. One performance in the morning and one in the evening each day for a total of six times.

Next, regarding what facilities will be available to you...

...

(I can't believe we're staying at the hotel and performing there for three days...)

(I thought they were just gonna have us appear as guests for small events or local festivals and stuff.)

(Can we really help promote the park...? Doing shows outside of the park is probably gonna feel really different compared to normal...)

Hm? Is something bothering you, Nene? You seem concerned...

N-No, it's nothing...

I'm not sure what's on your mind, but I'm certain that it's nothing you need to be afraid of...

We've already succeeded in putting on a show that hundreds of guests got to see and helped change the course of Phoenix Wonderland's future.

Traveling about to perform shows should feel like nothing at all to you at this point, no?

...!

Yeah, I guess you're right...

(We managed to pull off something that crazy, so we should be fine even if we're somewhere that's completely new to us.)

Again, your audience will include both children and adults, so in terms of what to perform, we'd like you to do something light and cheerful.

As long as you meet those prerequisites, the rest will be up to you.

But no funny business, got it?
We can't have you pulling another one of your stunts...

Funny business...?
I believe that depends on your definition of the word funny...

You're already planning something, aren't you...?

No matter. It is settled! We will perform a light and cheerful show that visitors of all ages can enjoy while promoting Phoenix Wonderland!

And we'll show everyone just how great Wonderlands×Showtime is at the same time!

Yeah! We promise to make everything super fun and bring back as many guests as we can!

Good. We'll be counting on you, Emu...

So why don't we get started by coming up with some show ideas? Any thoughts?

Oh, I know! We get to go to the beach this time, so why don't we do a show about us being fish on an undersea adventure?!

The sea, huh? What about pirates?
We could bury some treasure on the beach and dig it up during our performance!

Yes, everything we need for a pirate show does seem to be in place.

Is there anything you'd like to do, Nene?

The sea...
Well...

It's a tad old-fashioned, but the Little Mermaid might be nice...

The Little Mermaid? That's also a good idea.

Do you like the Little Mermaid, Nene?

Yeah. I saw a rendition of it when I was little, and I can still remember how amazing the lead actress was at singing... I doubt I'll ever forget it...

She's the reason I decided to start performing in shows and stuff.

(That was such a long time ago. Back then, I...)
