Phew, that felt so good!

Yeah! Who would've thought that there'd be a hot spring open this early in the morning?

I'm wide awake and feeling refreshed, too!

*Yawn*

You look sleepy. Did you have trouble sleeping?

*Laugh* I guess it's hard adjusting to sleeping in an unfamiliar place.

See, you should've just used my lap as a pillow!

Your lap?! Prez! My lap is available too, you know! Remember to keep all your options in mind!

And don't forget about my lap!

Emma's lap comes with a good sleep guarantee!

I-I'm fine! S-Seriously!

All right, guys, calm down! Since you're all feeling refreshed, let's go grab a bite to eat. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, you know!

Okaaay!

[Fade in/out.]

That was delicious! I'm stuffed!

Oof, I think I ate a bit too much.

You'll need that energy today. If you think you ate too much, that's perfect!

Why is it that food tastes so much better when you're on a trip?

I suppose the elation of traveling and seeing new surroundings must add a little spice to everything.

And sharing a meal together with all of you makes it all the more delicious!

*Giggle* You've got that right.

Hey, this is Aqours' home turf, isn't it? I'd like to take a walk and check it out.

Me too. I'm very interested in the place that made Aqours who they are.

Oh, that's right. This is the first time you two have been to Numazu, right?

Yep! Show me around!

We've got some time before the live show starts, so let's take a walk.

[Fade in/out.]

The town seems livelier than usual, somehow. So many people are out and about so early in the morning.

No kidding.

Maybe the whole town is excited about Aqours' live show?

I'm sure they are! Word is that the people of Numazu heard the requests from people across the country who saw the promo video, and decided to make it a reality!

Then one day I'll get requests for live shows from people in Tokyo, too!

It's not a competition, you know.

That's such a Kasumi thing to say. Some things just never change.

Hey, it's the Nijigasaki girls!

Gosh, it's μ's! Heeey, Rin!

Wow, good morning! I can't believe we ran into each other here!

Did we take the same train?

Miss Kaoruko drove us here this time! She drove all through the night!

Whoa, that sounds fun. Almost like a school trip.

That's right. The service area had a totally different feel to it at night! I loved it!

Wow, that sounds great! Did you find something yummy to eat? Some special local bread or something?!

Geez, Honoka. Calm down, please.

You're one to talk, Nico.

I'm perfectly calm, aren't I?

Sure, if you say so.

Hey, c'mon! I really am!

Relax, you two. No fighting during the trip.

W-We weren't fighting…

Sheesh, calm down. You're making things awkward for the Nijigasaki girls.

I'm sorry we're being so boisterous this early in the morning.

Oh, don't worry. I was just thinking how nice it is, actually.

This is perfect. Let's head to the venue together. You're heading out early to meet Aqours before their live show, right?

Yes. Let's go give them some words of encouragement.

[Fade in/out.]

Incredible…

Wooow, look at the size of that crowd!

I can't believe there are this many people here so early! There's still plenty of time before the show starts.

Wow. I've gotta hand it to those Aqours girls.

This is gonna be awesome!

Chika said Aqours are gonna put on their best show ever, you know. We've gotta cheer them on with all our might!
