<We get to watch MMJ for an entire day?! You girls are the best!>
<Is this an overnighter? The beach looks like so much fun!>
<What are you gonna do there?>
5
Haruka
Thank you all for tuning in.
Our hope is that you'll get to see many different sides of us today, so please enjoy.
6
Minori
But we don't even know what we're actually doing yet...

Comments
<Wait, what do you mean?>
<Improvised training camp...?>
<Shouldn't you come up with a plan?>
8
Airi
Hehehe...
9
Comments
<What's Airi up to?>
<One of these girls knows more than the others.>
10
Haruka
Hehe. I see that some of you have already figured out what's going on.
11
Shizuku
We actually had Airi come up with our entire plan for this training camp, including where we'd be going and what we'll be doing.
12
Comments
<I knew it!>
<She is pretty good at planning and stuff.>
<Does this mean Airi came up with a crazy list of activities?>
13
Airi
Hehe. You got it. On top of some pretty tough stuff, I've come up with a list of activities that I think you, the viewers, will really enjoy!
14
Comments
<Way to go, Airi!>
<Can't wait lol>
<I'll get my fingers ready for some nonstop screenshotting!>
15
Airi
Then, let's jump right in!
There's no time to waste at this training camp!
16
Shizuku
Right.
I can't say for sure if we'll make it through the end, but we promise to do our best and grow as much as we can!
17
Minori
But we still don't actually know how we're gonna train.
18
Haruka
I'm sure Airi won't disappoint.
I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of plan she's come up with for us.
19
Airi
Hehe. That raises the bar a bit... But to start things off, I'd like to see what you're all capable of!
20
Minori
Wh-What we're capable of?!
21
Airi
Hehe. So, here's the big reveal. First, I'd like to have you all ride on...
22
Airi
This banana boat!
23
Minori
A banana boat...?
24
Comments
<Banana boat training...?>
<Idols on a banana boat? Sign me up!>
<What's a banana boat? How's it different from a regular boat?>
25
Haruka
This is the type that gets towed by a motorboat, right? I see these at tourist destinations a lot...
26
Airi
Yeah, that's exactly right.
I rented it for us just for today.
27
Shizuku
Oh, I see.
But... What sort of training are we doing with it?
28
Minori
I'm puzzled too!
Riding it sounds more like a fun activity than training or exercise.
29
Airi
Heh heh heh,
Riding it is only half of the story. This is where we have... A MORE MORE MISSION!
30
Comments
<Woohoo!>
<I knew it wasn't that simple lol>
<Do you have to do something once you've gotten on?>
31
Airi
Alright, allow me to explain as both the producer and presenter!
32
Airi
For this training activity, you'll be riding the banana boat one at a time. Then, while you're out on the water, I'll give the signal...
33
Shizuku
Give the signal...?
34
Airi
I'll give the signal for you to face the camera and hit everyone with a dazzling, idol-like smile!
35
Minori
Huh...?
36
Haruka
That's it?
37
Airi
Yup, that's it.
38
Minori
Hmm... This still seems kinda too fun to be true...
39
Shizuku
Could it be that there's a surprise involving the boat?
40
Haruka
Maybe we're going to get towed so fast that we'll have trouble hanging onto it?
41
Airi
This isn't a variety show, so I won't have you do anything like that. If anything, I want this to be as safe as possible, so it won't be going that fast.
42
Haruka
She did say that it's meant to be a test to see what we're capable of. It shouldn't be that difficult, right...?
43
Airi
Hehe. We'll see.
So, without further ado, Shizuku, you're leading us off...!
44
Shizuku
M-Me?
45
Minori
Oh! Batting first... It's Shizuku!
46
Shizuku
I can't really guarantee any good results, but I promise to try my best...!
47
Shizuku
I'm ready!
48
Airi
Okay, you seem set.
I'll give them the signal to cast off!
49
Minori
Please be careful, Shizuku!
A whale might pop out from below to use its blowhole! You never know!
50
Haruka
I'm not sure that's going to happen...
51
Shizuku
I-I'll do what I can to keep my composure if a whale does decide to pay us a visit...!
52
Airi
Alright, settle down. I'm gonna start counting down now. Three...
53
Airi's Voice
Two...
54
Airi's Voice
One...
55
Airi
Go!
56
Shizuku
Eep...!
57
Minori
Whoa!
They're already way over there!
58
Shizuku
Hehe. This banana boat's so incredible. I feel like I'm flying across the water.
59
Haruka
The wind must feel so nice.
At the same time, all seems rather normal...
60
Minori
Yeah...
Oh, maybe Shizuku's noticed something!
61
Minori
Hey, Shizuku!
Is everything okay?!
62
Shizuku's Voice
Yes!
I just saw some fish jumping out of the water! I wish you were there to see them!
63
Minori
What?! That sounds amazing! I really wanna go on it now!
64
Haruka
Hehe. It does look like fun...
But it looks like we don't have to worry about any extra surprises. Which means, this training is about...
65
Airi
Hehe. Way to go, Shizuku...
66
Haruka
Huh?
What's that supposed to...?
67
Airi
She seems to be cruising along nicely, so I think it's time we moved on to the mission.
68
Airi
Shizuku...!
Get ready to turn this way and hit us with an idol smile!
69
Shizuku
An idol smile...?
Like this?
70
Comments
<Whoa... Talk about a killer smile!>
<I couldn't help but bow to her.>
<I don't know what's brighter! The sun or Shizuku's smile!>
71
Haruka
S-So many comments...
72
Airi
I can see why too.
Her smile goes so perfectly with this seascape that she's overwhelming... No, blinding us with her aura.
73
Airi
What do you think, Minori?
74
Minori
Well...
As a huge fan of idols...
75
Minori
The way she's gracefully gliding across the water is only adding to her beauty, like she's a water nymph! It's so fitting since “Shizuku” also means droplet!
76
Comments
<Minori gets it.>
<Can't argue against Minori's stamp of approval.>
77
Haruka
And it looks like they all agree with you, Minori.
78
Airi
So, Minori, I take it that Shizuku gets a perfect 100 for her dazzling smile...?
79
Minori
Yeah!
I'd give her 10 billion points if I could!
80
Airi
I get how you feel, but I'm not sure we can handle a score of that magnitude. So, let's stick with 100...
81
Airi
Anyway, Shizuku, come on back to shore!
82
Shizuku
Okay!
Mr. Driver, if you will.
83
Shizuku
Wow... That felt incredible.
Riding on a boat was so much fun.
84
Haruka
Welcome back, Shizuku.
85
Minori
Shizuku, your smile was unbelievable! It was like you'd somehow grabbed ahold of my heart and wouldn't let go!
86
Minori
Wait, we all get to see each other's smiles... Is this a test of how much idol power our hearts can handle...?!
87
Airi
What are you talking about?
88
Shizuku
I'm still a bit puzzled as to what this activity was about as well. I sort of just ended up enjoying myself.
89
Haruka
I think I'm starting to understand what Airi meant by “what we're capable of” if this really is just about our individual idol smiles...
90
Comments
<But why the banana boat? Is it really necessary?>
<Airi?! Coming up with a botched plan?!>
<^^^ There's no way!>
91
Airi
Hehe. That's what I like to see. Nice reactions, everyone.
92
Airi
But there's nothing to worry about.
For now, please sit back and enjoy as we all take our turns. Sound good?
93
Airi
So, Haruka, you're up next.
94
Minori
*Gasp*
I get to see Haruka smiling as she glides across the water...!
95
Haruka
I'm not sure that I can match Shizuku's brilliance, but I'll try my best...
96
Airi
Okay, here we go.
Viewers, let's count down together!
97
Airi
Three...!
98
Haruka
(Well, I'm aboard...
Nothing seems particularly out of the ordinary.)
99
Haruka
(But there's no way Airi would ever have us do a meaningless activity. There must be something that I'm still missing, so I'll need to keep my eyes peeled...)
100
Shizuku
Two...
101
Minori
One!
102
Airi
Go!
103
Haruka
Whoa!
104
Haruka
So much force...!
105
Minori
Bye, Haruka!
Have fun!
106
Haruka
(Now I understand...)
107
Haruka
(Well done, Airi. What a great idea.)
