Ch. 41 Ep. 9: Dazzling Service Area

Your minibus ride is going smoothly, with Tokyo just right around the corner. Before you get there, however, you all make a stop at a service area for one last break. Enjoy it and relax to the max!

Ai

Whoa, look at you go. It's coming along really well.

Setsuna

This is going to be a hit, I can just feel it!

Shizuku

It's thanks to everyone's input that we could come up with something so good.

Kasumi

I'm not just the cutest school idol in Japan, I might also be its cutest songwriter now!

Mia

You're the most happy-go-lucky idol in Japan, Little Puppy.

Kasumi

I am not a puppy!

Shioriko

It is truly astonishing how you've been able to put together a wonderful song like this so quickly.

Lanzhu

Masterpieces don't necessarily get better the more time you spend on them, you know, Shioriko.

Karin

This could make for a lovely song. It just gently soothes its way into your heart.

Rina

I really love this song.

Kanata

I'd love to sing this.

Player

Thank you. Now if only I could just come up with the hook…

Player

Something more…

Kaoruko

We're at the service area. Songwriting's all well and good, but you've also got to take breathers.

Kaoruko

Right, let's reconvene in an hour!

Everyone

Okaaay!

[Fade in/out.]

Player

It's daybreak. Mmm, the air's so nice!

Emma

*Sniff* *Sniff* I smell butter!

Shizuku

Emma, I don't think that's what she meant…

Emma

*Giggle* Sorry. I just get easily carried away by nice aromas!

Karin

This aroma certainly does carry you away.

Kasumi

It's not every day I hear you say something like that, Karin.

Karin

Come on, even I want to enjoy this moment to the max.

Karin

And enjoy it even more than you, Prez.

Player

Huh? More than me?!

Karin

Yeah. There's no way I'm losing to you.

Karin

Let's race to find where that aroma's coming from!

Player

W-Wait!

Emma

Come on, you get a move on, too!

Ai

Otherwise you'll get left behind!

[Fade in/out.]

Ayumu

Mmm, delicious!

Rina

I just love freshly baked, flaky apple pies! *Nom* *Nom*

Player

Ooh, it's so warm. I love it.

Shioriko

Oh, you've got a little bit of pie on your lip. Stay still, please… There, all gone.

Player

Thank you.

Ayumu

*Giggle* You've always been like this. The moment you start chowing down on something tasty, it's like you lose all self-awareness.

Player

Sorry. It's just that this pie is so delicious.

Kanata

I'd love to try making an apple pie like this!

Mia

I can't wait. Your cooking's so yummy, Kanata.

Kanata

*Giggle* Thanks. But I can't guarantee that I can make it this good.

Kasumi

Kanata can make absolutely anything, Miako! Those cream puffs she made before were the best.

Mia

You know, I'd love to eat some cookies like the ones I used to eat back in the States.

Player

Ah, you mean the ones that barely fit in your hand, right? I ate so many of those when I was on my short study trip abroad!

Kanata

Okay, then I'll challenge myself to make both an apple pie and cookies like the ones Mia ate.

Lanzhu

G-Guys! You're not gonna believe this! I found something amazing!

Ai

Look at this, look!

Karin

A meat bun?

Ai

You'd think, right? But split it open, and…

Ai

Ta-daaaaaa! It's filled with soft and juicy shrimp!

Player

Whoa! That looks so yummy!

Lanzhu

I've never seen anything like it! It's gotta be delicious!

Setsuna

Let's share it!

Emma

Here goes nothing. *Chomp* Mmm, buono!

Lanzhu

My turn now! *Munch* *Nom* *Nom*

Lanzhu

Hǎo hào chī! This is delicious!

Kasumi

I quite like doing this sort of thing. I know it's actually not good to just eat whatever you want, but it sure is fun!

Ai

We should all go camping sometime soon! You haven't lived until you've had some hot milk at a camp while gazing at the rising morning sun!

Rina

I wanna go! Rina-chan Board says, “Sparkle.”

Lanzhu

We can make a campfire too! I had so much fun with Ai and the others doing that last time.

Setsuna

Then, how about a training camp? We'll practice during the day, then build a campfire at night!

Ayumu

*Giggle* Everyone has so much they want to do.

Player

Ah!

Ayumu

Hm? What is it?

Player

It came to me! I found my hook! This is it!

[Fade in/out.]

Player

Do you…like it?

Emma

I think that's a great hook!

Kanata

Yeah, yeah. It fits the lyrics perfectly!

Ai

Are you feeling less gloomy now?

Player

Yeah, I feel all nice and refreshed. Thank you, everyone!

Lanzhu

You can rely on me whenever and for whatever! I'm the supreme club president, after all!

Kasumi

You're still calling yourself that…

Setsuna

Why don't we try singing this song all together, right here, right now?

Shizuku

I'm all for it! I've been itching to sing it!

Shioriko

Okay, then let's sing it! All 13 of us, together!

Ayumu

I wanna help spread the word about your song!

Player

Yeah!
