Ch. 35 Ep. 5: Promotional Leader Ruby!
Aqours are appointed as the promotional ambassadors for Izu Mito Sea Paradise. Ruby becomes the leader and works hard to prepare for the event. Then her first day of helping as an ambassador arrives!
Ruby
Oooh, I was so nervous!
Yoshiko
I knew it. We should have come along too, huh?
Ruby
Thanks, but meeting with the people at Mito Sea is all part of the leader's job.
Hanamaru
So, how'd that chat go?
Ruby
When I talked about the ideas everyone had, they said they definitely want to do them.
You
Really?!
Ruby
Yeah! And they want us to put on a mini live show!
Mari
Wow! That's amazing! I'd love to play a show at the aquarium.
Ruby
But there's so much that I want to do that coming up with a schedule might be tricky.
Ruby
Still, I'm looking forward to everything so I'll do my Rubesty!
[Fade in/out.]
Ruby
Hmm…
Dia
Ruby, may I speak to you for a moment?
Ruby
Sure, what is it?
Dia
…Isn't this promotional ambassador leader business wearing on you?
Ruby
Well… I think it's a handful, but I wouldn't go that far.
Ruby
Anyway, thinking about what I want to do for all the time slots might be difficult, but it's fun.
Dia
That's all well and good, but…
Dia
Are you certain that there isn't anything I can assist you with?
Ruby
Thanks, Dia. But this also counts as my Aqours Challenge, so I'm going to do it all on my own!
Dia
…Understood. Then I trust you to take care of this, Ruby. However, should you run into any trouble, please do feel free to tell me at any time.
Ruby
Okay!
Ruby
She really is worried about me being the leader.
Ruby
I can't make her worry forever. I have to show her that she can rely on me too!
Ruby
Just watch my Aqours Challenge, Dia!
[Fade in/out.]
Ruby
Okay everyone, I'm counting on you today!
Everyone
Understood!
Riko
Ruby, this schedule is amazing!
Kanan
We had so many plans, but they all made it in.
Ruby
*Giggle* I wanted to do everything we came up with!
Chika
Let's show all the visitors who came to Mito Sea a good time! We've got this!
[Fade in/out.]
Ruby
Welcome to Izu Mito Sea Paradise! Today at Mito Sea…
Mari
Hey, Ruby's aquarium announcement is starting!
Kanan
Ohhh, she must be nervous.
Mari
Ruby, you can do it!
Kanan
It's all right, you've got this. Stay calm…
Mari
Phew, she made it through somehow.
Kanan
Well, it's her first day. She'll get more used to it each time. Besides, Dia is way more worried than we are.
Mari
She'll probably worry over it 'til she's blue in the face. Why don't we go see her for a sec before the dolphin show?
[Fade in/out.]
Ruby
*Whine* I totally botched that announcement!
Riko
It's fine, you did great.
Ruby
Urgh, I'll do better on the next one!
Ruby
Anyway, I need to set up a mic so that visitors can hear the piano, but I'm not sure where I should put it.
Riko
Hmmm… Possibly around this area?
Ruby
Got it!
Riko
Ah, Ruby! The mic cable!
Ruby
Eeek!
Ruby
Ow… Owww!
Riko
A-Are you okay?!
Ruby
Urk… I'm fine! The mic goes here, right? …Okay, the setup's all done! Good luck with the piano and dolphin show collab!
Riko
Thank you!
[Fade in/out. On the phone.]
Player
Great job on your first day as the Mito Sea promotional ambassador, Ruby! How was it today?
Ruby
*Sniffle* I messed up a lot…
Ruby
I choked during my announcement and then I got tangled in a mic cable and tripped. And there was a whole bunch of other stuff that went wrong too! Waaah!
Player
Huh? But there's nothing like that online.
Player
Ruby, have you looked online? The people who went to Mito Sea today are writing a lot about how they felt.
Ruby
Eeek! Th-They…are?
Player
Yes. It seems like everyone had a really good time. They're all saying they want to go again.
Ruby
Th-That's great! Okay, I need to work harder than ever! And you've got to visit too!
