Ch. 35 Ep. 6: Take a Big Step Forward!

Though Aqours had some troubles on their first day as promotional ambassadors, they soon got used to their roles. One day into the second half of the month-long project, you hurry over to see how things are going at Mito Sea.

Player

Hey, Ruby!

Ruby

Oh! You came!

Player

Yep! I enjoyed a bunch of the stuff on offer first.

Player

I went on the fish-watching with Aqours tour and did the fish-feeding experience as well.

Player

And Ruby, your announcements were perfect!

Player

You wrote them with Hanamaru, right? You even touched on the history of Mito Sea. It was really something.

Ruby

Thank you. I'll tell Hanamaru you said that too.

Ruby

Oh! I need to go to the next spot soon!

Player

Wait! Um, there are some kids who want to meet you, so…

Ruby

Huh?

Player

The kids that I was feeding the fish with told me that they came from Nagoya just to see Aqours as the promotional ambassadors.

Ruby

They did?!

Player

Look, those kids over there. If you don't mind, would you go talk to them for just a minute?

Ruby

S-Sure…

[Fade in/out.]

Ruby

Th-That was sooo embarrassing!

Player

Ahaha! A lot of people sure did gather over there.

Ruby

Yeah. And they weren't just from Nagoya, they came from all over the place!

Player

It's all because of your help with the promotional ambassadorship!

Ruby

Yeah! I have to try even harder to make sure they can have as much fun as possible!

Chika

R-Rubyyy! We've got a big problem!

Ruby

Chika?!

[Fade in/out.]

Player

Mari's late?!

Chika

Yeah. I got the call just a second ago…

Kanan

She was trying really hard to make it in time for the dolphin show, but I guess her family business isn't finished yet.

Ruby

I see…

Dia

Riko, you're set to play piano for the dolphin show, but might it be possible for you to take Mari's place before the visitors?

Riko

I-I wonder if I can…

You

Ugh, but it won't be an Aqours dolphin show without Riko playing the piano.

Yoshiko

Exactly. Riko has to play the piano.

Hanamaru

Yoshiko and I have to go to the fish-feeding right after this, zura.

Chika

And I've got the fish tank tour, too.

Player

I see…

Ruby

…Just leave it to me!

Ruby

My task is to go around and make sure that everyone's jobs are going smoothly, so I have the time.

Ruby

Besides, I remember the whole program so I think I can do it.

Ruby

No, I know I can do it!

Ruby

So everyone, please. Let me handle it!

Kanan

We're the ones who should be saying “please,” Ruby.

Dia

Indeed. I expect great things from you, Ruby!

[Fade in/out.]

Player

Great work today, Ruby and Riko! The dolphin show was so much fun!

Riko

Thank you. It was a great success.

Ruby

I was sooo n-n-nervous!

Ruby

My hands are still shaking.

Player

Huh? Really?! I couldn't tell you were nervous at all from where we were sitting. You did it so confidently!

Ruby

I was nervous, but I managed to do my best because Riko was with me.

Riko

No, I was just keeping pace with you. You did everything perfectly, so we were able to succeed. Thank you, Ruby!

Ruby

Rikooo!

[Fade in/out.]

Ruby

Phew. It's somehow…over…

Player

You did a really great job, Ruby.

Player

You looked super cool volunteering to take Mari's place as the lead today. I never would have imagined the regular Ruby doing that.

Ruby

Th-That was just me copying my sister…

Ruby

Dia always tells people not to push themselves, but she works way too hard herself. That's just how she is.

Ruby

No matter what happens, she stands and faces it. So I thought I should too…

Ruby

Since I look up to her so much.

Player

I see. There are a lot of people who admire you as well though, Ruby.

Ruby

Huh?

Player

Everyone applauding at the dolphin show was looking at you with really radiant looks on their faces.

Player

Some kids were even saying that they wanted to be like you.

Ruby

Whaaat?! They were looking at me…?

Ruby

But if that's true, then I'm really happy.

Ruby

Okay, I've got to work even harder! I want to think of more plans until the end of the ambassadorship. Will you help me out?

Player

Of course! We're going to make sure that your Aqours Challenge is a huge success!
