Same. Plus, we've put together a good crew. I'm sure things will turn out well for us.
Tatsuya
I agree.
However...

No matter how much we practiced, it never felt like we ever came close to RAD WEEKEND.
Kotaro
The event itself is probably gonna be good, but...
Arata

Akito
Don't give up before it's even started...
Kotaro
What...?
Akito
I believe that all of us here are serious about what we're doing.
Akito
No matter the cost, we all want to surpass RAD WEEKEND. Am I wrong in saying that we all feel that way?
Akito
If I'm right, we have to turn this event into a stepping stone towards achieving that goal.
Toya
Akito...
Akito
By struggling together, I'm sure we'll... No, I know we'll figure out something!
Akito
That atmosphere... The way it made everyone go totally nuts. We're gonna find a way to grab hold of it.
Arata
Shinonome's right...
Arata
We don't have time to worry about what we can or can't do right now. For the sake of our dream, let's go out there and put on the best event possible.
Akito
Yeah. We're gonna surpass that night!
An
Nice speech, you guys!!
Tatsuya
Griping won't get us anywhere...
So let's just go all out during the show.

Looks like we've gotten them good and excited. I'd say about as excited when the headliner for a normal event's about to take the stage...

Yeah...
But I think we're getting closer... Well, that's just my feeling...

You really need to ask?

Um... Can we try doing more events together as a group like this?
Akito
Huh?
Kohane
U-Um... Well...!
Kohane
We've sung alongside a bunch of other teams until now, but I've never felt this kind of excitement from start to finish during an event before...!
Kohane
It probably has to do with us taking our music seriously... And how we're all trying to surpass RAD WEEKEND.
Kohane
I have a feeling that if we get to know each other better and practice like we really mean it, we'll be able to put on an even more amazing event...!
An
Kohane...!
An
Yeah, I'm all for that!
Especially since we're so close to getting a hold of some kind of answer. It'd be a waste to just call it quits now.

So, Akito, I'll be looking forward to singing more with you...
Arata
Because I believe we'll find the quickest way there as long as we're together.
Akito
Ugh... Do you have to do that every single time?
Akito
Anyway, everyone, let's decide what we'll be doing for our next event!

That means you'll be making even more delicious pancakes for us.
