Ch. 33 Ep. 7: From the Past to the Present
The ÎĽ's girls finally find their answer to the email and decide on a song. Now they commit to making their promo video and transforming one of their old favorites into an even more precious and one-of-a-kind song!
Player
“START: DASH!!” for the μ's promo video, huh?
Player
That's the song that kicked off ÎĽ's. It was sung by the three of you at the beginning, wasn't it?
Umi
Yes, you are correct. Honoka, Kotori, and I performed it.
Kotori
I was so nervous during our debut!
Honoka
I remember Umi was too embarrassed by her costume and freaked out right before we had to perform.
Maki
She did?!
Umi
W-Well, can you blame me? It was all new to me!
Player
Um, is it true that no one came to see your first live show? I find that hard to wrap my head around…
Honoka
It's true! But I mean, no way things would be that easy, right?
Kotori
Still, we were able to get up there and sing anyway because the three of us were together.
Umi
Yes, that's right. Besides, our classmates did everything they could to assist us.
Honoka
Hanayo also came to see us.
Hanayo
I was so scared I wasn't going to make it on time!
Rin
I went because I was chasing Kayo-chin, but I ended up getting drawn into the show anyway!
Kotori
*Giggle* We should thank you for that!
Umi
It's only dawning on me now that what we did was extremely brave.
Umi
I am exceptionally glad that I put my faith in Honoka's motivation and took on the challenge.
Player
Wow… That song would also go perfectly with the reply to the girl who wrote the email. You μ's girls really are amazing.
Player
The more I listen to your stories, the more I think that this song is the way to go.
Player
I'm going to do my best writing the fansite article! I'll make sure to fill it with all of the feelings and sentiments you've shared!
Maki
Thank you so much for that. But there's something else that we want your help with today.
Nico
Yep, yep! You'll help us film our promo video, right?
Player
Of course! I'll do my best with that too!
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Cut! Guys, you were awesome!
Nico
Of course we were! We're ÎĽ's! I feel like we could be even better, though.
Eli
Me too. Shall we do a retake of the part we just did?
Hanayo
I think I slipped up at one point so I'd love to give it another shot!
Maki
Hanayo, we've still got a lot left to do so don't use all your stamina up at once.
Rin
Kayo-chin's been doing a lot of jogging and stamina training just for today so she'll be fine!
Hanayo
I don't have as much stamina as you do, but I can still keep going for a while!
Umi
Honoka, should we do another take? Or would you like to start on the next part for now?
Umi
Honoka?
Honoka
Oh, sorry! What is it?
Kotori
What's wrong, Honoka? Are you tired?
Honoka
Oh, no! I'm totally fine!
Honoka
I'm not tired at all. It's just that…
Honoka
I started remembering a bunch of things while I was singing.
Honoka
Like when Maki said no to writing our song and stuff. But then she went and wrote that amazing song right away anyway.
Maki
Oh, stop it!
Honoka
Hee hee hee. Hey guys, thank you all for joining ÎĽ's! Thank you for creating this wonderful group with me!
Hanayo
I should be thanking you! Thank you for letting me join ÎĽ's!
Nico
Oh, quit it… What is this, a teen flick?
Nozomi
*Giggle* I bet you wanted to say thank you first though.
Nico
H-Hey! Nozomi!
Nozomi
Maybe Eli-chi wanted to say it first too?
Eli
Nozomi!
Rin
I wanna say it too! Thanks for inviting Maki and me to join!
Rin
C'mon, Maki, you say it too! It's nothing to be embarrassed about!
Maki
Geez… I don't want to… It's so embarrassing!
Honoka
Ahahaha! I really do have so much fun when I'm with you all! You guys really are the best!
