Wow, look at this.

W-Wait, what's up with this?

I wanted everyone to get a little closer, so we planned a party! Let's put all the small stuff aside and enjoy ourselves today!

A surprise party? Exactly as I expected.

You'd picked up on it?

It's an easy guess to make, looking at how you've been acting over the past few days.

Was I that obvious?!

Still, it's not every day you get to have a party, so I'll be enjoying myself.

The decorations are so sparkly and pretty. I love them.

Thanks, I'm flattered to hear you say that.

You made these, Ayumu? They're beautiful.

It wasn't just me–we all pulled together and worked hard, so I'm delighted you like them. Let's have lots of fun today.

All right, everyone! I made lots of food, so dig in!

What's that, a soba omelet?

They're Niceoodles. Try them; you'll be jonesing for more.

Well, someone's awfully confident. I'll give them a try, then. And I'll say now that you're not satisfying me with second-rate noodles.

Well, have a taste first.

Fine, here goes. Om…mmm?!

How is it?

W-Well, not bad, I'd say. Better than I thought, even.

Nico, you can't even stop yourself from eating more.

There are sweets, too, everyone, so eat up!

Sweets! There are so many cute ones.

There's plenty, so have as many as you like.

I don't know which one to start with.

The mikan hotpot is great, too, so eat up plenty!

I'll pass.

Huh? Wh-Why?!

It's fine, really.

Whuh?! Hey, don't knock it before you try it!

Ahaha, well, let's have a ton of fun today and recharge our energy! Then, let's make the School Idol Festival a success!

Yeah!
