Hanayo Ep. 22: The Hurdle of Ticketing
Shioriko has come to Hanayo for advice. Hanayo decides to recommend her a school idol group to show her more about what makes school idols so great. However, an unexpected wrench is thrown into the works.
Player
Hanayo? Shioriko? Are you two studying school idols again today?
Hanayo
Yup. We were just in the middle of reading magazines, watching videos, and chatting. Right, Shioriko?
Shioriko
Yes! I was sure of it before, but school idols truly are highly fascinating.
Player
Well, it looks like your studies are going well then!
Hanayo
Oh, I almost forgot! It should be here any moment…
Player
What's up, Hanayo?
Hanayo
I'm just checking to see if I got a message. Someone's supposed to contact me anytime now…
Player
Oh?
Player
Has it got anything to do with you taking Shioriko to the live show of a school idol group you like?
Hanayo
Gahhh!
Shioriko
Wh-What's the matter?!
Hanayo
*Wail* I missed out!
Player
As in, you missed out on the live show you wanted to take Shioriko to?
Hanayo
Yeah… They're holding it in the school auditorium, and only people chosen in the lottery get to go inside.
Hanayo
I always email the School Idol Club of that school to join the drawing for tickets, but I never get chosen.
Hanayo
And this was such a perfect opportunity to get Shioriko to fall even further in love with school idols…
Shioriko
Is that so? Thank you so much for going to such lengths for me, Hanayo.
Hanayo
Yet I didn't get the most important thing—the tickets!
Player
Hmm…
| Option 1: “You don't need a live show to learn about how great school idols are.” |
|---|
| Player I don't think you need to go to a live show to learn about how great school idols are. Hanayo Yeah… But I still want her to see a live show in person. |
| Option 2: “How about going to see another school idol?” |
| Player How about going to see another school idol or something? Hanayo But this is a group that I really want Shioriko to see. It was the perfect opportunity… |
Shioriko
Please don't worry about it, Hanayo. I'm grateful simply hearing about all of this.
Hanayo
Huh? What do you mean by that?
Shioriko
We're school idols ourselves, so we're also the ones who perform live shows.
Shioriko
Just thinking about how to increase the chance of people gaining an interest in us and how to avoid losing such opportunities is very insightful.
Player
That's a good point. It's important to have that perspective.
Shioriko
While it's true that I would've loved to see that live show in person, I'm still happy to have learned what I have today.
Hanayo
I… I also wanted you to see the live show too!
Player
But you can't get a hold of any tickets, so what are you going to do?
Hanayo
*Grumble* Now that it's come to this, I'll just have to make a change!
Player
Change…what?
