Ch. 27 Ep. 4: Ideal Sisterhood

Kaoruko crashes the School Idol Association's practice and joins in with Lanzhu to give nonstop advice to Shioriko, which sends her running to the Club. There she sees Kanata and Haruka, a very close pair of sisters.

Haruka

Hello, everyone. I'm Haruka Konoe. Thanks for letting me observe you today!

Player

Haruka said that she wanted to watch you guys practice.

Kanata

Haruka! Haruka! Make sure you watch your big sister, okay?

[Fade in/out.]

Player

All right! Now, let's take a short break.

Ayumu

*Phew* So how did you think our practice looked? Has anything changed since we tried out working in units?

Shizuku

Yeah, I want to hear what you think too! How was it?

Kasumi

Do you like us even more now? I'm sure you do, but I still have to ask!

Player

Of course I do! I like you all even more now!

Rina

That's great. I'm so glad that we formed a unit. It's been really helpful. Rina-chan Board says, “All smiles!”

Emma

You're right. We've discovered so many new things since forming our unit.

Setsuna

It really is an equation of friendship plus effort equals victory!

Haruka

Kanataaa!

Kanata

Whoa! What is it, Haruka? Do you want your big sister to give you a hug?

Haruka

Oh no, that's not it! I just got so fired up watching everyone performing!

Kanata

Ah, so you didn't need a hug then…

Shioriko

Um, hello…

Ayumu

Shioriko! What's the matter?

Kasumi

Are you off from Association practice today?

Shioriko

No, that's not it.

Kasumi

So did you just want to come and see my cute face, then?

Shioriko

Well, that is partially true.

Kasumi

What, only partially?!

Player

Did something happen at the Association?

Shioriko

No, not really…

Player

Oh well. Since you're here, let's get in some practice!

Shioriko

Thank you.

Kasumi

What? Are you sure it's okay to invite her?

Kasumi

She might be here to spy on us, you know. Maybe she's come to steal my ultra-cute performance!

Shioriko

It's not like I could steal your cute performance just by watching you, Kasumi. You're the only one who can pull it off.

Kasumi

Shioko gets it! You can't steal it, but feel free to come and watch me being super cute doing my thing!

Shioriko

Thank you.

Shizuku

Shioriko… You seem to be getting the hang of dealing with Kasumi! That's how you do it!

Shioriko

Watching how you interact with her has been really eye-opening, Shizuku.

Kasumi

Did you guys say something?

Rina

I didn't hear anything. Rina-chan Board says, “Flustered.”

Player

Oh, that's right. I've got someone that I'd like to introduce you to, Shioriko. This is Haruka Konoe. She's Kanata's little sister, and a school idol at Shinonome Academy.

Shioriko

Nice to meet you. My name is Shioriko Mifune.

Haruka

I know! I absolutely loved your encore performance at the School Idol Festival!

Shioriko

Oh, you saw that? I'm honored.

Haruka

And now you're a part of the School Idol Association, right? Everyone's talking about it at my school.

Haruka

Lanzhu Zhong, the perfect school idol who appeared out of nowhere, and her School Idol Association!

Haruka

Everyone's super motivated now. I thought I should study up too, so I'm here to watch Kanata's club today.

Shioriko

Kanata and the others are very good examples to learn from.

Kanata

*Giggle* Yay, a compliment from Shioriko. Hey Haruka, you don't have to just watch. Let's be school idols together! I'll really be able to give it my all then.

Haruka

No, I can't. I've decided to give it my best shot with the girls from my club.

Haruka

Plus, I want to get serious and win against you, Kanata.

Kanata

Oh my, you're in your rebellious phase. But I'm really happy that you're getting stronger, Haruka.

Shioriko

…The two of you seem so close.

Player

Looking at them makes you realize how amazing a sisterly bond is, huh?

Shioriko

I suppose.

Player

Shioriko, you look like you're feeling down. What's the matter?

Shioriko

Why did you have to notice that…

Shioriko

It's just… Ever since my big sister came back, I've been feeling kind of restless…and uncomfortable.

Kanata

Do you and your sister not get along?

Shioriko

That's not quite it. We're just not really on the same wavelength.

Kanata

I see… But all big sisters love their little sisters, you know. Why not try keeping that in mind?

Shioriko

I…do think that she likes me, but I also get the feeling that I'm being used as a plaything…

Kanata

Oh, hmm… Emma, what do you think?

Emma

I'm probably also guilty of fussing over and doting on my younger siblings until it got to be too much…

Haruka

I think my big sister can be a little like that as well.

Kanata

What?! Haruka?!
