Ch. 26 Ep. 6: Combining Our Voices

It's the first night of the joint training camp on a deserted island. Everyone was blown away by Ai and Karin's impressive performance earlier, and they are now deciding whether to go solo or try something new themselves. What did Emma decide?

Kasumi

Hi, Emma! You wanted to see me? Oh?

Emma

There she is! Now we're all here.

Rina

We're all here? This is kind of an unexpected group. Rina-chan Board says, “Question mark?”

Kanata

Emma, what did you want to talk about?

Emma

Continuing the conversation from earlier… I'd like to form a unit with the four of us.

Rina

With the four of us?

Emma

Yeah.

Kasumi

Why the four of us? We all have different ambitions as school idols and our strengths are all so diverse.

Kanata

I agree. I don't think I could give a super-energetic performance the way Kasumi does.

Kasumi

*Chuckle* That's because I'm the only one who can give a true Kasumin performance. But the same goes for you, Kanata.

Rina

What do you think the four of us will be able to do, Emma?

Emma

I think we'll be able to show off all of the wonderful things about being school idols.

Emma

If you're wondering why I think that, it's because the four of us have something in common.

Rina

Something in common? What is it?

Emma

It's that we're all big fans of school idols. We love being school idols ourselves, of course, but I think we're just as passionate about being fans of them. What do you say?

Kasumi

Hmm, that's true. Now that you mention it, I am a big fan of my school idol self.

Rina

I'm everybody's fan. I love watching everyone's performances. I feel like we have a connection.

Kanata

I'm a huge fan of Haruka's!

Emma

Right? I get that we all want to win, and that winning is important, but there's something else I want to cherish even more than that.

Emma

I believe that a school idol's most compelling charms can't be decided by things like competitions.

Emma

That's what I want to express. If we're only focused on winning or losing, and keep clashing with one another, we won't be able to show people how amazing school idols are.

Rina

What you're saying sounds a bit complicated, but I think I understand.

Kasumi

Really? I don't quite get what you're saying… But you've piqued my curiosity.

Kanata

Hmm… If we do decide to team up, what are you thinking we'll do, Emma?

Emma

If the four of us team up, I wanna do the exact opposite of what Karin and Ai are doing. I want us to complement each other… Show a united front, you know?

Emma

I want it to feel like the four of us are joining hands, and sharing the warmth of our friendship.

Emma

I thought if we shared that heat, we would all end up feeling the same warmth in the end.

Kasumi

I still don't get what you're saying, but it sounds really nice.

Kanata

Yeah. I can picture that.

Rina

I want to give it a try.

Kasumi

Even if we're supposed to complement each other, don't blame me if I still stand out because of my cuteness. Let's do it!

[Fade in/out.]

Kanata

Moving on. I think this is the most important question. How can we actually convey that we're united through our performance?

Rina

Through our dancing?

Emma

What about singing so that our voices are layered? I really love all three of your voices.

Kanata

Harmonizing, huh? That sounds fun. I'm in.

Kasumi

That's a great idea! Let's use it!

Rina

I wanna wear matching costumes.

Kasumi

I want a fluffy-looking one.

Emma

*Giggle* It's gonna be fun coming up with matching designs.

Kanata

We'll ask the Prez to write our song… Was there anything else to decide?

Kasumi

There is! It's something really important!

Rina

What is it?

Kasumi

It's our unit name!

Kasumi

If we're teaming up, we should give ourselves a name like ÎĽ's or Aqours!

Kanata

Right! I want one!

Emma

What would be a good name?

Kasumi

Heh heh heh… How about the Fluffy Kasumin Club?

Kasumi

It could also be the Kasumin Cuties, or maybe the Cutie Kasumies.

Rina

Those aren't fair. That's not being united. Just no.

Kasumi

Oh, right…

Emma

I'd like a cute unit name. But I can't think of one right this very moment.

Kasumi

Any ideas, Kanata?

Kanata

I think a unit name is really important. Why don't we think of ideas from that “united front” that Emma mentioned, or from our harmonized voices?
