Akito

Listen

Alright, time for us to head to the station and... Hm?
4

Akito

Listen

What up, Toya? You seem anxious.
5

Toya

Listen

Oh, it's just...
I think I'm excited about us putting on an actual event. It'll probably be on my mind for a while after I get home too.
6

Akito

Listen

I get how you feel, but you gotta relax for now. We're gonna talk more about what to do for it tomorrow anyway.
7

Akito

Listen

From picking a venue to putting a set list together... And most importantly, figuring out who's gonna be performing with us.
8

Toya

Listen

Oh, that's right.
Hm?

It's him...

Kotaro

Listen

*Sigh*
I still can't hit that high note... Hm?
14

Kotaro

Listen

Hey, Akito, Toya.
You guys heading home?

15

Akito

Listen

Yeah. You still practicing?
We never see you out here this late.
16

Kotaro

Listen

That's right!
I've been super stoked lately!
17

Akito

Listen

You have? Are you gonna be in a big event or something?
18

Kotaro

Listen

Not exactly...
19

Kotaro

Listen

I mean, it's just...
You guys have been on fire...
20

Toya

Listen

What do you mean?
21

Kotaro

Listen

I mean... So...
22

Kotaro

Listen

Seeing you guys and Tono doing so well made me realize that I should probably try a little harder.
23

Kotaro

Listen

Surpassing RAD WEEKEND sounded totally impossible at first, but I'm starting to think that you guys might actually pull it off...
24

Kotaro

Listen

I'm not exactly the greatest musician out there, but everyone wants to do a huge event at least once in their lives, you know?
25

Kotaro

Listen

I get I'm not as good as you guys, but that's sort of been on my mind lately...!
26

Akito

Listen

Hm? You, huh...?
27

Kotaro

Listen

S-So what?! Is it weird for me to think that?!
28

Akito

Listen

No, not at all...
29

Akito

Listen

Alright, that makes you our rival, so you better be ready if we meet during a battle.
30

Toya

Listen

Yes, we'll be giving it everything we have.
31

Kotaro

Listen

O-Okay...!!
32

Akito

Listen

Anyway, I think we've kept you long enough. Good luck with practice.
33

Kotaro

Listen

Thanks!
You guys get home safe!
34

Akito

Listen

I never thought he'd become this motivated...
35

Toya

Listen

You seem happy, Akito.
36

Akito

Listen

Huh? I do?
37

Akito

Listen

I guess it's because I'm seeing more and more people make surpassing RAD WEEKEND their goal...
38

Toya

Listen

Outside of us, Tono was about the only one who had made it their goal.
39

Akito

Listen

Tono, huh...?
Rumor has it that he's been singing everywhere around here since losing to Taiga.
40

Akito

Listen

I wonder what he's up to now...

Arata...
If you're serious about surpassing RAD WEEKEND, keep this one thing in mind.

Huh...?

Arata

Listen

“Take a look at this city”...huh?
48

Arata

Listen

(I've been entering into as many Vivid Street events as I can and talked to almost every musician that I've seen. I've even all but memorized all the back alleys around here.)

Arata

Listen

(But I still don't understand what Taiga meant...)

Arata

Listen

A message...?
Who'd be contacting me at this hour...?
51

Arata

Listen

He's here...
Again...
52

Arata

Listen

(Then, I have even less time to think...)
53

Arata

Listen

(Especially since I still need to...)
54

Passerby A

And I heard over at An's place that Vivid BAD SQUAD's gonna be putting on their own event!
55

Passerby B

Whoa! I can't wait to see what that's like!
56

Passerby B

They've been getting better with each performance, so it's gonna be totally outta this world, right?
57

Passerby A

Yeah!
Who else do you think's gonna be there?
58

Passerby B

Hmm... It might be a short list since there aren't many teams around here that can sing like them...
59

Arata

Listen

Vivid BAD SQUAD's putting on an event...?
60

Arata

Listen

(Of course they are. They have to if they wish to get closer to surpassing RAD WEEKEND.)
61

Arata

Listen

(And someday, I'll...)
62

Arata

Listen

(Come to think of it, I've been participating in all these events up until now...)
63

Arata

Listen

(But I've never tried to put an event together with someone else who also wants to surpass RAD WEEKEND.)
64

Arata

Listen

This could be my chance to discover something new...
