Ichika

Listen

Yeah, I should use this sound here.
There isn't a huge difference, but I feel like it's more reflective of the kindness I'm trying to capture.
2

Ichika

Listen

That just leaves the key change between the bridge and the last chorus...

Ichika

Listen

Okay, the bridge should be all set now.
4

Ichika

Listen

Come to think of it...
I had to think a lot about what sorts of phrases I wanted to use for the bridge.
5

Ichika

Listen

But I'm glad that I did.
You only get to hear the bridge once, so it has a fairly different kind of presence compared to the chorus, which is played several times.
6

Ichika

Listen

I wrote it with everyone smiling in mind. As brief as this phrase is, I wanted it to become this unforgettable glimmer.
7

Ichika

Listen

That's why I won't use any effects.
I want to use just raw sound. Next is...

This song... It's even better than I...!

B-But I shouldn't be patting myself on the back just yet. I need to hear how it sounds when Miku sings it...

Miku, are you there?!
22

Miku

Listen

W-Wah! You scared me...!
23

Miku

Listen

What's wrong? You seem really flustered... You also seem really happy, though...
24

Ichika

Listen

That's because I am...
The truth is, I've been working on my own song...
25

Miku

Listen

Your own song?
26

Ichika

Listen

Yeah, I worked really hard on it...
And finally, today... I'm finally finished writing it. Which is why...
27

Ichika

Listen

Please, Miku...
I want you to listen to it....!
28

Miku

Listen

Of course.
I'd love to hear your song, Ichika.
29

Ichika

Listen

H-How was it...?
30

Miku

Listen

Amazing...
31

Miku

Listen

You've created a wonderful song.
It's clear that you put an incredible amount of thought into it...

32

Ichika

Listen

You can tell...?!
33

Miku

Listen

Yes. Each note gently showed me just how much you care about the others, how you want to be there for them and cherish their brilliant smiles.
34

Miku

Listen

Not only that, you chose the instruments that Leo/need uses. You must have had the others in mind while writing it.
35

Ichika

Listen

Oh...
36

Ichika

Listen

That's right...
I wrote this hoping that we'd play it as a band.
37

Ichika

Listen

At the moment, only Honami knows that I'm writing a song...
38

Ichika

Listen

But now that you've given me your seal of approval, Miku, I think I can present it to the others as our newest song.
39

Miku

Listen

I see. That means...
40

Miku

Listen

This song is going to let me sing with all of you in your world.
41

Ichika

Listen

Miku...
42

Miku

Listen

Obviously, I'm not the same Miku that's in your world...
However, while listening to this song, I got the feeling that it connects me to all of you girls.
43

Ichika

Listen

(Oh...)
44

Ichika

Listen

I felt that too...

Sound Effect: Play

45

Ichika

Listen

I thought really hard, trying a lot of different melodies and having you sing them...
46

Ichika

Listen

At first, I felt so happy just to hear you sing phrases that I'd come up with, Miku...
47

Ichika

Listen

But after a while, I began to feel bad about having you sing all these incomplete melodies.
48

Miku

Listen

Ichika...
49

Ichika

Listen

But I was able to approach the sound I was going for with the help of a certain someone. I was able to produce a melody that I feel satisfied with because of them.
50

Ichika

Listen

And...
Miku, when I heard you sing that melody for the first time, I...
51

Ichika

Listen

I thought our hearts were in perfect sync.
52

Ichika

Listen

The way I wanted to show how much I want to be there for everyone and how brilliant their smiles are... Miku, through your singing voice, you said that you understand.
53

Ichika

Listen

That made me so happy.
Which is why when I finished writing my song earlier...
54

Ichika

Listen

It felt like we made it together...
I didn't create it alone. This song felt like our song.
55

Miku

Listen

Yes...
I have to think that my counterpart also feels the same way.
56

Miku

Listen

I mean, she sounded like she was having so much fun while singing your song, Ichika.
57

Ichika

Listen

Miku...
58

Miku

Listen

I also want lots and lots of people in your world to hear the song you and her created, Ichika...
59

Miku

Listen

This song, your thoughts, your feelings, this melody... The people who need it most are going to be so touched by them all.
60

Ichika

Listen

Yeah...
I hope so too.
61

Miku

Listen

Um, Ichika...?
Would you mind if I tried singing it?
62

Ichika

Listen

Huh...?
63

Miku

Listen

I want to sing your song, too.
64

Ichika

Listen

*Gasp*
65

Ichika

Listen

Then, can I... Can I sing with you?
66

Miku

Listen

Did you think I was going to say no?
67

Miku

Listen

Let's sing!
