Hanayo Ep. 19: Precious Merchandise

Dia and Setsuna reassured Hanayo that it's natural to have high ambitions. This helps Hanayo to realize that she wants to perform in the spotlight for herself. However…

Hanayo

I really do want to do my best to shine in the spotlight.

Hanayo

Because I want to step forward and give everybody strength!

Honoka

Wow, that's wonderful! I just know you can do it, Hanayo! Right, Kotori?

Kotori

Definitely! And in that case, I think that you should make yourself the star of the booklet that you're making as well.

Hanayo

Honoka, Kotori… Thank you! I'll work hard on the booklet too!

[Fade in/out.]

Player

Hey, Hanayo. I printed a copy of the booklet that you've been working on. Is there anything you want to change?

Hanayo

Um… I'd really like to include a photo showing all three of us practicing, even if it's just a little one.

Player

Oh, of course! I know—I'll cut out this photograph here to use.

Player

That reminds me. Is it okay to use the interview you did without changing anything?

Hanayo

Dia and Setsuna told me that it was all right for me to have lofty ambitions…

Hanayo

But if I never achieve those goals, this interview might be really embarrassing to look back on in the future.

Player

It sounds like you're still anxious about it. But…

Option 1: “I know that you, of all people, will reach your goals.”

Player

I know that you, of all people, will reach your goals. You're already making steady progress, one step at a time.

Hanayo

Do you think so? Maybe I don't need to panic about it then.

Option 2: “The booklet is really looking amazing.”

Player

The booklet has all of Printemps' thoughts and feelings in it. I think it's really looking amazing.

Hanayo

Do you really? If you think so, maybe it is!

Player

And besides, I think that putting your honest feelings into a physical form to keep for later is really wonderful.

Player

It'll be a very valuable piece of fan merchandise to Hanayo fans like me.

Hanayo

Whaaat?! Th-This counts as my merchandise?

Player

Yeah! Don't you clip out other school idols' interviews and magazine articles and keep them somewhere safe?

Hanayo

Yeah, I save lots of interviews like that! It's because I want to know how those girls really feel…

Hanayo

Oh!

Hanayo

I see… So it's the same with me.

Hanayo

I've only been thinking about myself all this time. I didn't spare a thought for the people who'd be reading about me…

Player

See? So let's include your feelings in the booklet, for the sake of all the people reading out there.

Hanayo

Yes. I'll do just that!

Hanayo

This booklet is going to become a piece of merchandise that everyone will read!

Hanayo

And it'll count as merchandise for Honoka and Kotori, and also Printemps as a whole!

Hanayo

Looking at it that way, I think the booklet is a lot more important than I had imagined.

Hanayo

I won't be ashamed anymore. I'll publish my true feelings for all to read!
