Taiga!

Taiga

Listen

Hey, Ken.
3

An's Father

Listen

A customer just told me what happened.
4

An's Father

Listen

You really went through with it?
5

Taiga

Listen

What did I say?
I didn't want to leave any loose ends.
6

An's Father

Listen

I see.
7

Taiga

Listen

I also told them about Nagi.
8

An's Father

Listen

...!
9

Taiga

Listen

They need to know if they're gonna “succeed” us.
10

Taiga

Listen

But I only told them a few things.
You'll have to tell them the rest... Right?
11

An's Father

Listen

Yeah, I know.

Tono, where are you going...?
16

Arata

Where...?
17

Arata

Listen

I'm going home.
There's nothing left for me here.

Akito

Listen

Wait, what do you mean by that...?
19

Arata

Listen

I mean, didn't you see just now?
20

Arata

Listen

There's no way we can do better than that.
21

Kohane

Listen

Oh...
22

Kotaro

Listen

T-Tono...
23

Akito

Listen

And you're okay with that...?
24

Akito

Listen

You aren't, are you...?
I thought you were willing to do whatever it took...!
25

Arata

Listen

I wasn't able to respond...
26

Arata

Listen

All I had to say was, “Taunt me all you want! I'll keep carrying his dreams!”
27

Akito

Listen

...!
28

Akito

Listen

But still...!
29

Akito

Listen

That's...
30

Arata

Listen

I had no idea what to say in that moment. I drew a complete blank...
31

Toya

Listen

...
32

Arata

Listen

Anyway, well...
33

Arata

Listen

This is it for me.
34

Akito

35

Arata

Listen

I'll see you all... No...
36

Arata

Listen

Goodbye.
This team was fun while it lasted...

Tatsuya

Listen

I'm not gonna lie. This feels like the end of the line...
41

Kotaro

Listen

What...?!
You're not also...?!
42

Tatsuya

Listen

I... We never had a problem with losing to anyone.
43

Tatsuya

Listen

Because we knew that we could fight again another day. At least, that's what we believed...
44

Tatsuya

Listen

But today, we saw reality...
45

Tatsuya

Listen

There are actually people out there who can't be beaten no matter how hard you try...
46

Kohane

Listen

Oh...

47

Kohane

This is terrifying...

Kohane

Tatsuya

Listen

Also, if...
Even if we manage to outdo Taiga someday...
50

Tatsuya

Listen

I'm having a hard time seeing us surpassing RAD WEEKEND...
51

Tatsuya

Listen

I just don't know how we can...
52

Toya

Listen

But...
53

Tatsuya

Listen

I honestly didn't want to see things end like this...
54

Tatsuya

Listen

But I think it's time that I grew up and gave up on this dream...
55

Tatsuya

Listen

So, bye...

Kotaro

Listen

Why's this happening...?
57

Kotaro

Listen

This...
This isn't fair! Not one bit...!
58

Kotaro

Listen

Why?! Just why...?!
This was the first real dream I've ever had... Why did it have to be impossibly hard...?!
59

Kotaro

Listen

Why...?! Why...?!
Why couldn't I sing when it really mattered...?
60

Kotaro

Listen

Why...?
Why am I such a stupid, spineless piece of garbage...?!

Akito

Mita...

Kotaro

Listen

What Taiga said...
65

Kotaro

Listen

Did he mean we shouldn't chase after dreams we can't possibly achieve...?
66

Kohane

Listen

...!
No, that's...!
67

Kotaro

Listen

I was holding you all back...
I knew this entire time...
68

Kotaro

Listen

But I clung to how you guys were all chasing after the same dream as me...
69

Kotaro

Listen

I didn't want to let go of that...
Which was probably really bad...
70

Toya

Listen

No, Mita, don't say that!
71

Kotaro

Listen

Sorry, you guys...
72

Kotaro

Listen

I'm really sorry...

Ken...?! What are you doing here...?
79

An's Father

Listen

I heard from one of my customers...and Taiga.
80

An's Father

Listen

He told you didn't he...?
About Nagi?
81

Kohane

Listen

...!
82
...
Yeah, he did.
83
So, you also knew...?
84
You knew this whole time and didn't tell me...?
85

An's Father

Listen

An...
86
...
Why?

87
Why?! Why?!

Sound Effect: Play

88
Why was I the only one who didn't know something this important?!
89
None of this makes any sense!
I thought everybody was on my side! We were all like family!
90
Seriously, why?! I don't get it! Why only me...?!
91

An's Father

Listen

Because that's what Nagi wanted.
92
Ugh! I don't care!
93
That doesn't explain anything at all!!!
94

An's Father

Listen

...
I'm sorry, An.
95

An's Father

Listen

Let's talk about this more at our place.
96

An's Father

Listen

Including you, Akito, Toya, Kohane...
We'll need you all to join us.
97

An's Father

Listen

Today, I'll tell you everything.
About how and why RAD WEEKEND happened...

98

An's Father

Listen

I flipped the sign to say closed, so no one else should be bothering us.
99

An's Father

Listen

This is going to take some time, so please sit down and make yourselves comfortable.
100

Kohane

Listen

Okay...
101

An's Father

Listen

Where do I begin?
I don't actually know exactly what Taiga told you all...
102

An's Father

Listen

But Nagi is gone, and that's the truth.
103
...
104

An's Father

Listen

I'm sure you all have a long list of questions you'd like to ask.
105

An's Father

Listen

So, please allow me to tell you everything, from the beginning to the end. Who Nagi was and how RAD WEEKEND came to be.
106

An's Father

Listen

And first...
Well, you need to know more about Nagi. About us, RADder.
107

An's Father

Listen

We first decided to form a team together when were in junior high.

108

An's Father

Listen

Taiga and I went to the same school, but we didn't really get along at first. Him singing was the reason I actually began hanging out around here...
109

Akito

Listen

(Oh...)

110

Taiga

Listen

One day, Ken walked by while I was doing a street performance... He gave me this look of boredom which really bothered me.
111

Taiga

Listen

I thought, “Hey, don't ignore me! You know I'm here! Isn't there anything you feel passionate about?!”
112

Taiga

Listen

So, I began singing like there was no tomorrow.
113

Taiga

Listen

My performance definitely sparked something inside him. It was pretty obvious.
114

Akito

Listen

(He's probably talking about that...)
115

An's Father

Listen

We fought, sang, fought, sang...
Then, one day, this girl suddenly appeared, clinging to Taiga. That was when I met Nagi for the first time.
116

An's Father

Listen

She said, “You're the weirdo who's been hanging out with Taiga? Why don't you sing with me too?”
117

An's Father

Listen

She sounded like a piece of work at first... But my impression of her completely changed after I heard her sing.
118

An's Father

Listen

I'd heard rumors that Taiga's little sister was an unbelievable singer... But I was still blown away.
119

Kohane

Listen

You were...?
120

An's Father

Listen

Yes. Despite her small stature, she had this mature singing voice and an uncanny ability to captivate her listeners...
121

An's Father

Listen

I'll never forget that voice...
122
...
123

An's Father

Listen

And before we knew it, the three of us began hanging out together.
124

An's Father

Listen

Then, one day, Nagi said, “We should form a team. We could rule the world.”
125

An's Father

Listen

As crazy as that sounded at the time...
Chasing after the same dream as the two of them sounded pretty nice.
126

An's Father

Listen

A part of me thought that we really could become the best musicians in the world someday.
127

An's Father

Listen

We went over to Crawl Green, the owner gave us his blessing to debut there, and we were given permission to put on an event.
128

An's Father

Listen

After that, scouts from the big labels began following us, and we ended up signing with an agency.
129

An's Father

Listen

We'd finally become professional musicians, but that was only the beginning of our troubles...
