Ichika

Listen

No, this doesn't feel right.
It needs to be more...
2

Ichika

Listen

(It has to remind them of all their happy memories even when they're apart from one another.)
3

Ichika

Listen

(I don't actually know much about them...)
4

Ichika

Listen

(But I have to think these memories exist.)
5

Ichika

Listen

(I mean, I'm here doing this because I had so much fun with the others...)

Little Ichika

Listen

What's the matter, Saki?
7

Little Saki

Listen

Hehehe... Just making a wish that we could stay like this forever!
8

Little Saki

Listen

Playing together, talking about stuff, watching shooting stars on our way home...
9

Little Saki

Listen

I wish we could keep doing all that together forever!
10

Little Ichika

Listen

I wish we could, too.
11

Little Honami

Listen

Me three!
12

Little Shiho

Listen

Same.

14

Ichika

Listen

(I know those two might not have a choice but to go their separate ways at this point. However...)
15

Ichika

Listen

(As long as they have these memories and look forward to the future, I'm sure they'll someday be able to look back and smile...)
16

Ichika

Listen

(This is what I want this song to be about...)

17

Ichika

Listen

Okay, here... “To you”...? No, “For you”... That sounds much better...
18

Ichika

Listen

(That's it for the first verse...
I'll take a quick break before starting the second.)
19

Ichika

Listen

(Oh, maybe I should look over the first verse again to make sure it doesn't sound weird.)
20

Ichika

Listen

“Add up all the joy you've felt since you met”...
21

Ichika

Listen

That reminds me...
22

Ichika

Listen

(Meeting everyone was the best thing that's ever happened to me.)
23

Ichika

Listen

(But this other discovery made me feel almost just as happy.)

Little Ichika's Voice

Listen

...! Wow! She's so amazing...!
30

Ichika

Listen

(I got so worked up that I couldn't fall asleep that night and almost ran late the next day...)
31

Ichika

Listen

(I hurried over to school to ask Saki and the others about playing this song together...)
32

Ichika

Listen

Hehe. That really takes me back...
33

Ichika

Listen

(I discovered Miku songs...
And I ended up meeting her in SEKAI...)
34

Ichika

Listen

(Without her, we probably wouldn't have been able to come back together like this...)
35

Ichika

Listen

(I can't even begin to describe how thankful I am for that...)
36

Ichika

Listen

(I know...
I should work these feelings into my lyrics.)
37

Ichika

Listen

(The joy of meeting someone...
And this desire to keep singing with them.)

Ichika

(Thank you so much for the advice you gave me, Luka...)
40

Ichika

Listen

(Uh oh...
I'm glad I'm done, but I feel so sleepy now...)
41

Ichika

Listen

(We're supposed to practice in SEKAI in the morning too... I should probably get in a quick nap...)
42

Ichika

Listen

(No, I should just head over...
We need to write the music for this and start practicing it.)
43

Ichika

Listen

(Also...
I really want to hear what everyone thinks.)
44

Ichika

Listen

(I hope this song's able to ease some of the pain those two are feeling right now...)

Ichika

Listen

Miku's sleeping while sitting...
48

Ichika

Listen

(Oh, the chalkboard behind her is covered in ideas for our song...)
49

Ichika

Listen

(Did she come up with these with everyone else after I left...?)

Thank you so much, Miku...

Oh, Ichi! Miku!

You know what time it is, right?

Wait, Ichika, you didn't stay up all night, did you? Are you sure you're up to this?
58

Ichika

Listen

Yes. I actually feel pretty good right now.

Hey, I thought I heard people!
You guys are already here!

How can anyone have so much energy in the morning?
61

KAITO

Listen

I think that's actually a good thing...
62

MEIKO

Listen

Oh, KAITO, the hair on the back of your head needs some fixing.
63

KAITO

Listen

Huh...?
64

Luka

Listen

Also, how are your lyrics coming along...?
65

Ichika

Listen

Oh, they're done...!
66

Ichika

Listen

Which is why I want to hear what you all think.
67

Ichika

Listen

(Everyone's gone so quiet...
Should I say something...?)
68

Ichika

Huh?! Honami, what's wrong...?!
71

Honami

Listen

Huh...?! I'm sorry...
It's just... This reminded me of everything before we got our band back together...
72

Shiho

Listen

This reminded me of junior high too...
73

Saki

Listen

Yeah...
74

Saki

Listen

I was reminded of how I couldn't see any of you back then and the moment we got back together...
75

Saki

Listen

Thanks for writing such amazing lyrics, Ichi...
76

Ichika

Listen

*Gasp*
Thank goodness...!
77

Ichika

Listen

What do you and the others think, Miku?
78

Ichika

Listen

Oh...
79

Miku

Listen

They're wonderful lyrics, Ichika...
80

Ichika

Listen

Miku...
81

Rin

Listen

Oh no! Miku-P, are you okay?!
Len, get her a handkerchief!
82

Len

Listen

R-Rin, you don't have one?!
Oh, I think I left mine in the other classroom...
83

Luka

Listen

Hehe. Here, Miku.
You can use this.
84

Miku

Listen

Th-Thank you...
85

Luka

Listen

They really are wonderful lyrics, Ichika...
This song brings up some sad emotions, but gently wraps you in love and warmth...
86

Ichika

Listen

Thank you very much, Luka...!
87

Saki

Listen

Alright!
Let's get down to writing music for it!
88

Saki

Listen

The melody we came up with yesterday should go great with this... How does this sound?

Sound Effect: Play

89

Honami

Listen

That's astounding!
Oh, but... It might be good to slow it down a bit.
90

Shiho

Listen

I agree. A simpler sound and mellower pace would go better with these lyrics.
91

Ichika

Listen

Okay, how about something like this?

There...

Honami

Listen

It absolutely is...!
Not only does the music go perfectly with Ichika's lyrics, but the intro also really tugs at your heartstrings...!
95

Saki

Listen

Oh no... What if I start crying in the middle of playing it...?!
96

Shiho

Listen

Do your best to hold back those tears.
97

Ichika

Listen

Hehe.
I'm just glad we were able to come up with something that sounds right...

98

Ichika

Listen

Oh...
Haha... Sounds like I worked up an appetite...
99

Honami

Listen

We did sort of skip lunch to keep working on this.
100

Miku

Listen

Hehe. Nice work, girls!
101

Len

Listen

I can't believe you were able to come up with something this good in so little time. Your focus was incredible.
102

MEIKO

Listen

I agree. It's clear how seriously you all took this.
103

Ichika

Listen

Thank you all very much.
104

Ichika

Listen

The truth is, I kept thinking about all of you while writing these lyrics...
105

Miku

Listen

Wait, us?
106

Ichika

Listen

Yes. Meeting Saki and the others was definitely an incredibly happy moment for me...
107

Ichika

Listen

But meeting all of you means just as much to me.
108

Ichika

Listen

You guys opened my eyes by teaching me that music comes in all shapes and sizes.
109

Ichika

Listen

Now, we're back together as a band and trying to go pro.
110

Ichika

Listen

None of that would've been possible without any of you.
111

Ichika

Listen

So, Miku... Everyone...
Thank you very much.
I'm so grateful that we met.
112

Ichika

Listen

I'll probably never get a chance like this again... Not even if I was reborn and given another opportunity...
113

Miku

Listen

Ichika...
114

Miku

Listen

You say these really profound things from time to time...
115

Saki

Listen

I know, right?!
It's like she becomes a total sage sometimes!
116

Ichika

Listen

What?!
117

KAITO

I agree...
118

Luka

Listen

Hehe.

Luka

Listen

I hope this song has a positive effect on Hanano and her brother...

Me too!
