And now for the weather. The large scale typhoon is expected to pass through the Kanto region between today and tomorrow…

…

(The wind outside is crazy. The sky is so dark, too. What's going to happen to the festival today?)

Oh, you're awake!

Hey Chika. What's going on today?

I just heard from Mari that the Festival Committee contacted her. They said…

[Fade in/out.]

Good morning everyone!

Morning.

Good morning! Were you okay getting here? The crazy wind didn't blow you away, did it?

They wouldn't be here if it did.

Yeah, exactly.

Kanan and Mari, you guys came on the boat from Awashima, right? Was everything okay?

Yeah, we made it. The boat is only running this morning though. Can't blame them, considering the weather.

…

I can't believe the Summer Festival got canceled.

I had a bad feeling when they announced the expected path of the typhoon had changed.

It can't be helped when you're up against nature. It's frustrating though.

Oh, heavenly father… For making not only Yohane, but all the little demons suffer, I shall never forgive you!

It's not completely canceled though.

Chika…

It's a shame the festival was canceled today, but there's still tomorrow!

There is another day, but the weather report said it would be bad tomorrow, too.

What if the typhoon changes its mind and runs away in the middle of the night?

The typhoon is approaching faster than projected, and they said this morning they haven't decided what to do about tomorrow yet.

It's a small chance, but Chika might be right. Not all hope is lost yet.

Yeah. Worrying won't help us. We've said that before!

That's right. Positive thinking brings about miracles no matter what the situation.

If you think of today as an extra day to prep or practice, it's not even that bad.

Then I'd like to practice my lines some more! I've practiced my butt off, but I'm still worried about it.

Then let's practice, zura! My festival won't be over until I hear Ruby do the tourist info piece, zura.

We should go over the performance once more, just in case. We might find some improvements to make.

We won't be able to do anything that changes the structure of it all, though.

Will the ingredients for the food be okay? There's stuff that needs to be refrigerated, right?

It'll be fine. We're not using any raw meat or fish, and the refrigerated stuff should be fine for a day.

Hmmm, it's time for Yohane to get serious! I shall call upon the spirits of the sun and dismantle the rain clouds drop by drop!

And you're going to look up how to do it on your phone?

(The typhoon is almost here. Tomorrow might be canceled. Yet everyone's eyes are still gleaming with hope. No one has given up yet.)

Even if there's only a small chance, we still have to do everything we can.

I don't want to regret not doing anything, so we can't lose hope until the very end!

…!

(That's right. It's not over yet. I have to believe in tomorrow and do everything I can for Aqours until the very end.)

[Fade in/out.]

Chika, are you sure we can stay at your place?

No problem! I even got the okay from my sisters!

The Japanese futon provides a mysterious comfort so different from a bed. It fulfills my Japanese mind!

This is so fun, zura! It's like that school field trip, staying in a ryokan together like this.

The school trip… You all slept together like this on your trip? It must have been fun.

Oh yeah, didn't you get a cold and have to stay home when you had your middle school field trip? Don't worry, you'll be able to go on the next one.

It's raining outside. It sounds pretty bad.

The wind might be peaking right now. I hope it passes overnight.

Um, Chika? Can I hang this up outside the front door?

Is that…a teru teru bozu doll? There's one, two, three…nine?! Did you make them all?

Yeah. I made them all in the image of you all. I'm not sure if they'll bring fair weather, but I wanted to do something to ensure tomorrow happens.

Hm, this might not be enough.

[Fade in/out.]

Right. Let's take some tissues, wrap them all around, and here! Mari's special teru teru bozu doll! Let's hang this one up, too.

O-Okay. But why an extra?

There are more than just nine people hoping for fair weather tomorrow, right?

If we don't pray with everyone's power, the true strength of the teru teru bozu dolls might not show!

Let's all pray for sun tomorrow.

Right!

Let's hang them up! Please let everyone have a wonderful time tomorrow!
