SETSUNA: "I can't stay sad about this forever. The best thing for me to do is use the next live shoe to erase my past performance failures!"
AKI: "Yeah, now that's the morning spirit! Now you're back to your usual self!"
SETSUNA: "I am! Let's make this a live show I can proudly show Shioriko! I can't let myself get down over this!
And more than anything, I want to sing a song to everyone who supports me that's packed 100% full of my feelings.
So...I am once again asking you for your moral support to help me accomplish that."
AKI: "I also take responsibility for not noticing the problems myself, so let's give this a shot, together."
SETSUNA: "Absolutely. I'll be sure to examine my own feelings closely so there's no mistakes this time!"
...
SETSUNA: "Now, that being said! I'd like to get everyone's help on coming up with a song for my next live show!"
AI: "So you say, but you look like you've already got an idea of what you're gonna do."
SETSUNA: *Giggle* "Ai, you're so sharp! So take this!"
AI: "Whoa! What's with the hugging? I mean thanks and all, but what's going on, Setsu?"
SETSUNA: "And one for all of you! A hug here, a hug there, a hug for you and you and you!"
SHIORIKO: "Eek!"
AYUMU: "Whoa!"
KASUMI: "Gah!"
RINA: "Wah!"
AKI: "..."
SETSUNA: "I almost forgot! A hug for you, Chief!"
AKI: "Hm? Oh, thanks Setsuna."
KARIN: "Wh-What's gotten into you?"
AKI: "This happens to be a hint about Setsuna's new song."
SHIZUKU: "A hint about her new song? What does it mean?"
SETSUNA: "I've gotta pour all my love into it, so I'm just reaffirming my love!"
KANATA: "Hmm? I don't really get it."
EMMA: *Giggle* "I think she means her love for all of us."
SETSUNA: "Exactly!"
KASUMI: "What?! But I thought Setsuna's new song would be inspired by her love for her favorite anime and stuff, like usual."
SETSUNA: "Well, I realized something important talking to Shioriko. When I looked into my heart and thought about what I really love... It wasn't my favorite anime, characters, ships, etc. It was you all."
SHIORIKO: "Setsuna..."
SETSUNA: "Shioriko, thank you so much! It was thanks to you that I realized what I needed to focus on.
And thank yoy for validating me. Our viewpoints may be different, but you didn't reject me. You accepted me... So I feel confident in being who I am.
And that's why at my next live show, I'm going to sing a song that's full of all my feelings of love!
Of course, thinking about what other people love is wonderful in its own right. But it's hard for me to love those things in the same way they do.
You don't love something because you decide to love it. You just realize that you already do."
AYUMU: "..."
SETSUNA: "So I'm not going to sing a song that tries to speak on behalf of others or do what they want of me. I'm going to sing from the heart about what I'm feeling!
Some of my fans might notice that how I feel is a bit different from how they feel as a result. But I can't help that.
A world where everyone can freely say what they love isn't one where people push what they love on others. It's on where no one denies or rejects others for what they love!"
AKI: "A world where no one rejects what other people love, huh?"
I wish that certain people in my life could see the value in that...
AKI: "Yeah, that's exactly it. Let's get everyone to see what it is that you love, Setsuna!"
SETSUNA: "Yes! This time I'll definitely set their hearts and the building on fire!"
AKI: "U-Um, maybe their hearts, but we still need a school to go to..."
SETSUNA: "So ladies and Chief, I want an even bigger hug-fest!"
AI: "All right, come at me with everything you've got!"
SETSUNA: "Sure, unless... Surprise attack on Kasumi!"
KASUMI: "Wh-Wha?! Not so tight, I won't make it to my show later!"
EVERYONE: "Ahahahaha!"
