Ohhh, now I'm the one who's nervous and shaking with excitement.

*Giggle* How about I hold your hand to calm you down, then?

Hey, that's not fair, Ayumu! I'll hold her hand too!

Shhh, Kasumi.

I really liked what Chika-chi had to say earlier.

Yeah. It really is nice to know that they think so highly of us.

Chika said she saw us as role models and an example of what to strive for, but I don't see us like that.

I think I know what you mean. Aqours is the group pushing school idols forward!

Oh, it's starting!

[Fade in/out.]

Now that you've listened to three of our songs in a row…

Are you all fired up now, everybody?!

That's great! Once again, we are the Uranohoshi Girls' High school idol group…

…Aqours!

Thank you so much for coming to our live show today!

Mwahaha! It's so nice to see all of my little demons from all over the country here today! Thank you for being so patient!

So, how many of you have come here to see us for the first time today?!

Eeek! Wow, that many?! It's so nice to meet you all!

If there are this many of them, that probably means some of them came from pretty far away.

I came from Kyushu!

Hokkaido!

L.A.!

Wait! You flew all the way here?!

Thanks for traveling so far to see us! I hope you've enjoyed Numazu.

Once you come here, you'll never want to leave!

It's such a lovely place, isn't it? We're very proud of our beaches, mountains, and warm hospitality!

The people of Numazu have been supporting us for a really long time now!

Did you all get a chance to watch the School Idol Exhibition promo video?

It's packed with the great memories that we have of our time in Numazu.

Yeah. All of the videos from the School Idol Exhibition were great. They kept me glued to the screen.

I found myself really enchanted by Saint Snow's Sarah and Leah.

A-RISE's quality was incredible, as usual.

When I watched μ's' promo video, I was trembling with excitement throughout.

Me too. Rin was so cute, zura!

And of course, Nijigasaki's was very unique. It's incredible to think that all of the Nijigasaki girls in that video are school idols!

It took me by surprise, but I was totally convinced after watching it.

It was really charming to see them all giving it their all.

At first, I thought that the School Idol Exhibition was just a fun little project, but it ended up changing our world.

And it was you, Numazu, who helped us do that!

Thank you all so much! We're so unbelievably happy that we get to put on a live show in such a lovely place!

Thanks to you, we now know you don't have to be in a big city to be a school idol. You can be one anywhere!

It's okay to want to be the best at what you love, wherever you are.

It's okay to have someone you admire and aim to be like them, and to want to stand together on the same stage as them someday.

It's those feelings that empower us to do amazing things!

So, as thanks for supporting us, we want to give some of that power back to you all!

With that said, it's time for our next song. Please accept our power!

All right, give this a listen…

[Fade in/out.]

Oh, wow… Aqours are on fire!

No kidding. I think I felt actual shivers go down my spine. I didn't think that was a real thing that happened.

Now we really can't afford to get left behind!

But anyway, for now, we're here to cheer them on! Gooo Aqours!
