Year of the Ox-ercise Ep. 6
Karin
Here's your last serve, Honoka. Hit this back and you're done!
Honoka
Yaaah!
[Fade in/out.]
Rina
Good, Honoka!
Honoka
*Pant* *Pant* I-I hit it!
Karin
Great job. You worked really hard.
Honoka
I'm…exhausted…
Chika
Me too. I feel like a withered husk…
Honoka
Do you think we'll be able to fit into our outfits now?
Chika
I'm sure of it! Look at all the work we put in!
Honoka
Hey, yeah! Now that you mention it, we did!
Chika
Exactly. We're bound to get good results from all that!
Honoka
Yeah!
Karin
Um, sorry to rain on your parade… But we're not done yet.
Honoka, Chika
What?
Karin
In fact, we're only just getting started. That was our nice, gentle warm-up.
Honoka, Chika
Seriously?!
Karin
Our aim isn't just to have you fit into your stage outfits. We want to give you figures to die for!
Karin
That's why it's absolutely vital to build an adequate amount of muscle on your bodies. So now, it's time for some weight training!
Honoka
W-We're gonna do…
Chika
Weight training? Now?!
Honoka
*Whimper*
Chika
H-Honoka!
Honoka
Weight training after all that? There's no way I can do it!
Karin
I understand. It's hard to imagine before you try. I used to be the same way.
Karin
But, if you don't take the risk, you won't reap the rewards. Your muscles will respond to the effort you put into them. Muscles are assets that last your whole lifetime.
Honoka
Our muscles…
Chika
…Are lifelong assets?
Kanan
Nicely said. I love that way of thinking!
Rina
They only respond to the effort you put in? The human body sure is straightforward and sincere.
Karin
That's right, Rina. That's why it's so important to listen to your own body's needs when working on your figure.
Chika
Excuse me, ma'am! My body is yelling that it's had enough!
Honoka
Mine too! It's at its limit!
Umi
What are you both whining about? You can't have exhausted yourselves yet. Get up, now. You can keep going a little longer!
Chika
*Sob* You can be so cruel, Umi!
Honoka
Okay, I get it. I'll do it. I'll give it my best!
Karin
That's the spirit. Why don't we start with squats? Say, a hundred?
Chika
A h-hundred?!
Honoka
Karin's just as cruel underneath that kind smile of hers!
Karin
*Giggle* No pain, no gain. I know you girls can do it! Let's all do our best together!
