Ch. 51 Ep. 10: The Town We All Love
Once again, it's become clear to you that Odaiba is where you belong, mind, body and soul. What fresh new discoveries await you after spending the day exploring and enjoying the sights?
Ai
Whew, that was fun, wasn't it? But wow, I'm glad we were able to show you and the others to that secret pathway we recently discovered, Ayumu.
Ayumu
Fishpuff's secret pathway was intense!
Mia
I'm never going there again!
Kasumi
That's what I said last time, but this was my second trip through!
Rina
Everyone has burrs stuck to their uniforms.
Emma
Don't worry. I'll pick them all up and clean this place up for you.
Karin
That was quite an adventure, huh?
Player
But experiences like this are fun, too. You make all kinds of new discoveries.
Kanata
Totally. I wanna find out everything there is to learn about the town I love.
Kanata
Still, when you stop and think about it, this is kind of a strange town, right? You've got these vacant lots and old apartments right next to shiny new buildings!
Shizuku
I know what you mean. That was my first impression of Odaiba as well.
Shizuku
My hometown is very old, so I got really excited when I learned I'd be attending school here.
Shizuku
There are state-of-the-art buildings everywhere you look, so it almost feels like a theme park. The fact that there's even a school here was shocking to me.
Kanata
Until I decided to come to school here, I only ever thought of Odaiba as a tourist spot.
Kasumi
I was chomping at the bit to go to school in a place like this!
Kasumi
I had a feeling that since I was entering high school and getting more grown-up, Odaiba was a perfect fit for me!
Kasumi
Well, to be honest, I'd say I was half excited and half freaking out.
Ayumu
I guess everyone feels that way at first. Glad it all worked out.
Ayumu
The way I look at the town has changed since I came to Nijigasaki, made friends, joined the School Idol Club and met the other School Idols, and spent more time in Odaiba.
Ayumu
Now it feels perfectly natural to be here.
Karin
I know what you mean. For me, most of my memories of being in high school revolve around this place.
Emma
I think of Odaiba as my second hometown.
Shioriko
The time we've collectively spent here is something we've all made together.
Lanzhu
I haven't been here as long as you all, so I haven't made quite as many memories.
Lanzhu
But it's thanks to this town that Nijigasaki's been able to have its own school idols.
Lanzhu
We all got together and formed the School Idol Club, which taught me the wonder and magic of being a school idol!
Lanzhu
And now, I'm a full-fledged member…
Lanzhu
When I think about it that way, Odaiba truly feels like the place where I belong.
Mia
That's going a little overboard, Lanzhu…
Mia
But I'll admit that half of me agrees with you.
Mia
If you hadn't decided to come to Nijigasaki, then I wouldn't be here either.
Rina
And if it weren't for Odaiba, then we wouldn't be friends, Mia. Odaiba really is a special place.
high school girl A
U-Umm, excuse me… You wouldn't happen to be members of the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club, would you?
Setsuna
Huh? Yes, we are…
high school girl B
*Squeal* It's really you! Sorry, we just had to come and say hi! We're huge fans!
[Fade in/out.]
Setsuna
That was unexpected.
Ai
Wow, we got recognized on the street by local fans.
Player
Yup, and you know what that means. Not only are your stars on the rise at school, but you're making a name for yourselves around town as well!
Rina
Guess all our hard work is paying off.
Kanata
Hey, considering what those girls said… Do you think this means people are paying more attention to Odaiba because of what we've been doing?
Shizuku
It hardly feels real to me. After all, we've not changed what we do very much.
Kasumi
I dunno, it feels pretty real to me!
Shizuku
How so?
Kasumi
I've got a few more members in my fan club than I did before!
Rina
More people are watching our game livestreams too…
Lanzhu
Which means it's safe to say that Odaiba's profile is rising along with ours.
Emma
So…is it okay for me to feel like we're contributing to Odaiba?
Karin
I'd be overjoyed if that's the case.
Setsuna
This is the town we love, after all.
Player
Hey, everyone. Let me ask you something. I just came up with an idea…
Player
Since there isn't one already, why don't we make our own?
Shioriko
Make our own what?
Shioriko
Oh… No, surely you're not suggesting…
Mia
Pretty sure it's exactly what you think it is.
Ayumu
I am totally in. One hundred percent!
Player
I haven't even told you my idea yet.
Ayumu
No, but we all know.
Ayumu
Since there isn't one already, we should make… Our own festival for Odaiba!
Ayumu
A festival that all of Odaiba will contribute to, promote, and enjoy together!
