Teacher
Thank you for helping me carry all this, Asahina. I should be able to take it from here. I know you're very busy.
Mafuyu
You're welcome.
Please feel free to ask again if you ever need help with anything else.

Ichika
It's okay. That actually gave me some time to get my papers in order. Anyway, shall we begin?
Mafuyu
If I recall... Oh, we were tallying up survey responses from every school event that's been held thus far.
Ichika
Yes, and many students have been saying, “The event was fun.” Getting ready for the Sports Festival and choir recital in quick succession wasn't easy, but it seems like they all enjoyed working together.
Mafuyu
That's good to hear.
It's a nice change from how a large plurality of the student body voiced a dissenting opinion last year.

Mafuyu
Quite a few second and third years seemed to enjoy things but felt conflicted about not using that time to study for entrance exams...
Mafuyu
It is. And when you become a second year, everyone begins pressuring you about what you'll be doing in the future.
Mafuyu
At the same time, it'd be nice to keep organizing events that are both fun and accommodating in terms of the needs of others.
Ichika
I agree.
These are special events, so they should have a special place in everyone's hearts.

Anyway, shall we review proposals for the next event while going through these survey responses?
Mafuyu
But we'll need to edit this more before passing it on to the rest of the student council or the teachers... That may take a while.
Ichika
I'm so sorry...
It's not that urgent or anything, but the new CD for this artist I like goes on sale today...

Ichika
Yes. They retired from producing VIRTUAL SINGER music for a little while, but decided to return recently.
Ichika
They're not all that famous, but have a fairly strong following... And they even played some of their music at the Fan Festival this year.

Kanade
This artist who went into retirement for a while is going to be there, so I'd like to hear their music.
Mafuyu
Oh, could it be...? Was this artist's music difficult to come by before they retired?
Mafuyu
No, a friend actually told me about them. I remember because they seemed to really like this artist as well.
Ichika
Y-Yes... But this is also a limited version that you can't buy online, so I may never be able to get this CD if I miss this opportunity.
Ichika
There was no way to make any reservations either, so I've been worried about it selling out... I'm sorry. I didn't mean for it to get in the way of what we're doing now.
Mafuyu
Yes. I suspect that your mind will be elsewhere even if we were to continue, but we nearly have everything ready so we can leave the rest until tomorrow.

<Hey, weren't you saying that you're getting that new CD today? Did the shop run out or something?>
Kanade
<No, it's not available online and it's only being carried by a few shops. There aren't many that do around here, so I may've missed my chance for good...>
Kanade
<It's supposed to include songs with scores written by the artist, so I was really hoping to use it for reference later...>
Kanade
<The person who ended up buying that copy seemed like they were really looking forward to getting it.>
Kanade
<Right. It was nice to meet another fan and I'm happy as long as they get to enjoy it...>
Ena
<But you wanted to listen to it too, right, K? I mean, you never know. They might do a re-release, so I'll check online for any info.>
