It's a little rough around the edges, but it's a great song! And it suits us so well as a group!

Wait, you two know who wrote this song?

Okay! I'll play that song!

What if other people all over Japan are already dancing to Hasegawa's song like this? This is so cool...!
Students
Haha. This song's pretty tricky!

Based on what I saw, this is turning into Yuporin's most or second most viral dance video!
Airi
The videos Hasegawa originally posted.
The Yuporin dance only uses a part of that song, right?

This video's getting a ton of views because all these people want to hear the entire song.
Haruka
Because it's an incredible song.
I guess this means her wish to “spread hope to her listeners” came true.

In any case... Everyone at our school's been playing your song nonstop, Hasegawa. It's an incredible sight!
Hasegawa
<It was only just recently that I gave permission to use this song, but I didn't expect it to blow up like this so fast... My brain still sort of hasn't caught up...>
Haruka
I'm sure you'll understand soon enough. Everyone in the comments section's remarking how cute and cheerful your song is.
Shizuku
Hehe. I believe it's only natural considering how wonderful your song is, Hasegawa.
Hasegawa
<Oh, I'm wrapping up the demo right now, so it should be ready sometime this week!>

<It's like this song's trying to shove “happiness” down your throat. Hearing this when I'm trying to focus on real problems is the worst.>

<I know, right?
I didn't want to hear it, but people started blasting it in class because it's popular or whatever. It's awful.>
