YU: "Going somewhere?"
AKI: "Backstage. It's my job to cheer for my idols after all."
YU: "I'll be watching, I just know that you can turn this all around!"
AKI: "Heh, thanks. Since you're a new student I was able to reserve a front row seat for you, courtesy of Shioriko."
YU: "Really? I'm going to be that close?! Wow, I'm getting excited just thinking about it! This will be my first live show!"
AKI: *Laugh* "Believe me, Yu. You never forget your first."
Hmm, I thought Ai would show up out of nowhere after that unintentional pun.
Enough talk, Ayu is counting on me to support her and I gotta make sure the clubs are organized to go on stage.
My time as a temporary Student Council member isn't over yet, after all.
...
AYUMU: "Hello to all of you prospective students and your parents and guardians! We are the School Idol Club.
School idols carry out their activities at their respective schools. We at Nijigasaki High School do so as part of the School Idol Club here.
While we have not been active for very long, we work just as hard as any other club, and all of us love school idols.
Daily practice can be tough at times, but gradually seeing the results of your hard work makes it very satisfying.
Working towards a common goal with your fellow members who possess the same dream as you is an emotional experience that cannot be had through study alone.
I am truly glad I joined this club.
There are tryouts for the club, but only to give us an idea of your skills. We respect everyone's desires and warmly welcome all applicants.
Nijigasaki is a great school. Come enrol in this school, join our club, and create wonderful memories together with us!"
AI: "Isn't the speech I helped her write awesome?"
SETSUNA: "Yes, and Ayumu was very charismatic giving her speech as well!"
RINA: "All that's left is for her live show to be a success."
EMMA: "I don't know why, but I'm starting to get nervous myself."
AKI: "It's fine, everyone. I know Ayu won't let us down!"
AYUMU: "I would like to take this opportunity on stage today to perform a song. Please listen to my song, 'Yume e no Ippo'."
YU: *GASP*
AI: "Whooooa! Don't Ayumu's dance moves seen more elegant than usual to you?!"
SHIZUKU: "Yes! This is an excellent start!"
KARIN: "She's performing better than she ever has before."
KANATA: "It must be nice to sing so effortlessly like that!"
AI: "We'll sing our hearts out at the School Idol Festival to make up for not being able to sing today!"
SETSUNA: "Indeed! Until then, we must practice as hard as we can so we don't lose to Ayumu!"
KASUMI: "I can't sit still! I just want the School Idol Festival to happen already so I can sing!"
SHIORIKO: "Uehara..."
AKI: "The audience will see you if you lean any further forward, Shioriko."
SHIORIKO: "Oh! Sorry."
AKI: *Laugh* "Looks like someone was pretty focused on watching the performance, huh?"
SHIORIKO: "I-I would not say that at all."
AI: "Oh reeeeeeally, Shio-ti? It sure looked like you had your eyes glued to Ayumu!"
SHIZUKU: "You can get a better view over here, Shioriko! Come!"
SHIORIKO: "While it does not really matter to me... Thank you very much, Osaka."
