Cheers to another successful live show!

Cheers!

I know it may be odd to mention this now, but I wonder if it's really okay for us to participate in the after-party.

Of course it is! Come on, eat up!

Hǎo hào chī! Delicious! What is this…?! I've never had sashimi this fresh in my life!

This was all fished here in Numazu this morning.

Wow! Now I love the fish here as much as I love meat!

Whoa, that's high praise coming from you!

Shioriko, where's Miss Kaoruko?

She said she was going to sleep in the car. She has to drive us all home, after all.

Oh, right. I feel bad for asking her to drive us around so much…

Not at all. That's just what she does. She has a license to drive large vehicles, so she would take any excuse to drive a minibus.

After she got her motorbike license, she insisted on taking me along for a ride… She told me she wanted to go see the vast…expanses…

Shioriko, are you okay?!

M-My apologies. I started feeling a bit faint. It is…a rather frightening memory for me…

Are you okay with fish, Mia?

Heck yeah, I love this one that's been cooked in sweet soy sauce… So good… *Munch* *Munch*

Ooh, you look like you're really enjoying that. Fish cooked in soy sauce is great, but so is fried fish! Eat up!

I just want to say again that today's live show was the best yet!

Tell me about it!

All of our hard work has paid off magnificently.

The performance you gave was unlike anything I've seen Aqours do before. It was fantastic. You've all come so far.

My excitement's still going through the roof!

I feel the same! It makes me feel like getting up onstage and doing a live show right now!

Me too! I can't get Aqours' live show out of my head!

Me three! I'm sure I'll be seeing that live show in my dreams tonight.

Don't hog all the dream stuff for yourself now! I want to dream about it too!

I'm going to see Aqours' show whenever I dream from now on… Zzz…

Honestly, Kanata. You'll catch a cold.

Hey, Emma. Kanata's—

Oh?

Shhh, Karin. Ruby's about to fall asleep.

Nnn…

Oh, she's leaning on you. I'm sorry about that, Emma.

I don't mind, honestly. She worked super hard today, after all

Yeah, she certainly did, zura. *Yawn*

*Giggle* Looks like someone else is sleepy too. Come lie down here, Hanamaru.

Mmm…

Surely having both of them on you has to be heavy, right?

It's fine, Dia. Emma's stronger than she looks, you know.

Yeah, you bet I am!

Say, about today's live show… Did you guys also make that exhibition space? I was so happy I got to see your costumes up close.

Well, of course! Both the exhibition and the pamphlets were part of today's live show experience!

I respect that attention to detail. The pamphlet was a very worthwhile read.

Yeah. The love for Numazu that I felt from it made me want to take a tour of the town.

It really does have that effect, doesn't it. It was the perfect masterpiece!

Still, those mic issues really had me worried for a second there.

Huh? It didn't really look that way to me.

Believe you me, my head was in full-on panic mode! I had no idea what we were gonna do, especially since it happened just as the excitement was reaching fever pitch.

That's why we were so relieved when your Prez started singing.

Everyone in the venue used her singing as their chance to join in. I'm going to remember the sight of it for the rest of my life!

Yes. I've never felt so emotionally uplifted as I did in that moment.

I can truly say that the whole venue came together as one.

Thank you. You came to our rescue yet again.

Oh, please, I didn't do anything…

Okay, I know you're all having a moment and all, but I just need to say that μ's accepts your challenge, Aqours! We're gonna show you how far we've come at our next live show!

Heeey! You can't just go saying bold stuff like that while ignoring us!

I agree with Kasumi! We're going to show just how far we've come too!

I'm gonna build a special Rina-chan training machine!

Ooh, when you do, let me have a go on it!

Oh, I see what you're up to, Rin. You clever little spy!

And now we see Nico's true colors!

W-W-Wait, forget I just said that! Okay?!

But I really just wanna play on Rina's training machine!

(Everyone's spontaneously finding stuff they want to do and moving forward.)

(Kaoruko told me there's no need to fret… That as long as I do my best and focus on the things I want to do right now, I'll be just fine. Still…)
