Preeez!

Hey, Kasumi. Did you get to speak with the other Hometown Idols?

Yeah. I got to meet some of the people who work behind the scenes in this area too.

They said they'd love to get me to work on the events they host here, and a bunch of other stuff too.

Wow, that's pretty exciting.

Hehehe, I just can't wait!

Oh, actually, there's going to be an event at the children's center to teach kids traffic rules, and they want me to take part in it!

That sounds right up your alley.

Exactly!

…Well, not really. I only know what to do because of Shioko. I'll have to thank her later.

She'd be delighted to hear it. Anyway, it sounds like you're going to get pretty busy, huh.

Yep. But no matter what comes my way, I'm going to bring my A-game to all of them!

[Fade in/out.]

I really do love this town. I've lived here my entire life.

It's not some big city, sure, but the folks in the neighborhood are so kind. It has the sort of vibe that just puts you at ease.

[Fade in/out.]

I know what you mean. When we went to Numazu and saw the locals coming up to talk to Ruby, you said you had to study how she does it.

But you had all sorts of people coming to talk to you today, Kasumi. I think you're plenty popular now, yourself.

Huh?!

No, no, those were just…my neighbors, that's all.

But they're super nice! They always share their pears and peaches with us.

Oh, I know!

This'll be my very first assignment as Kasumin the Hometown Idol…

What is it?

I'll show my beloved Prez all the charm my lovely town has to offer!

Speaking of which, our festival is packed with food stalls. You've gotta try the giant candy apples and the rainbow cotton candy.

There's huge chunks of octopus in the takoyaki, and you can have as much butter as you want on the buttered potatoes!

I really hope you'll come to love this town as much as I do. I'd be so happy!
