Wah! Waaahh…

I thought this might be the case, but there sure are a lot of people. Are you doing okay, Rina?

Yeah. There are too many people here for me to change the face on my board, though.

Ahaha, it's been the same face since we got here.

What's about to begin here? What are we watching?

You'll see soon enough.

Someone came out on stage.

Welcome, everyone! Today, we have some wonderful school idols for you! Please, enjoy the show!

School idols? Wait, is this a school idol concert?! There are this many people here for it?!

Yeah. Neighborhood folks, out-of-towners, even people from overseas. They're all here.

They're all here to connect with school idols.

To connect with school idols…

Now, time to give a warm welcome for our first performer!

Hello everyone!

I know that voice!

Thank you for coming today! I'm so happy to see so many people here!

I want your feelings and mine to become one so we can have a great time! I hope you're excited for some music!

Setsuna…! Setsuna is performing!

Everyone's getting so excited! Live shows really get the blood pumping, huh?

But still, Setsuna is incredible. Even being the first act, she's so confident! Right, Rina? Rina…?

Wow. Everyone is connected! There's so much passion that it's like… No, it's more than what a conversation can give.

Why? Why do we feel like this?

That's just the power of school idols.

The power of school idols?

I think school idol songs are total honesty. They have so much purity. That's why people get so passionate and excited when they hear them.

The people listening take that excitement and give it back in the form of their cheers. Even if they're not face-to-face, they can still share their feelings that way!

Through songs and cheers. This is so wonderful! I want to connect with people like this, too!

You can, Rina.

Can I? Can I really?

Of course. Have you forgotten that you're a school idol, too?
