Ch. 52 Ep. 7: A Place of Rest
Finally, A-ZU-NA explore Ariake Garden. What do they find is the appeal of the combined commercial and residential area?
Ayumu
Welcome back.
Player
Huh? Ayumu? Fancy running into you here. Did you go to the convenience store or something?
Ayumu
Nuh-uh. I was watching the moon out on the veranda, and I heard you come in.
Ayumu
Sounds like R3BIRTH have decided on their festival's theme, huh? Hehe.
Player
It's not like you to be keeping tabs on the enemy, Ayumu.
Ayumu
You think so? I mean, I'm in league with the other A·ZU·NA girls.
Ayumu
I want to win and make Setsuna and Shizuku happy.
Player
It's nice seeing you so fired up.
Ayumu
*Giggle* I guess Setsuna is rubbing off on me!
Ayumu
So have they decided?
Player
Yeah! They want to hold a festival celebrating street food from around the world at Aqua City.
Ayumu
Food from around the world, huh? That sounds fun.
Player
Yeah! There'll be foods you've never seen before!
Ayumu
Each sub-unit is thinking up a festival that's perfect for them, aren't they?
Ayumu
Karin and Ai's cyber Bon dance, QU4RTZ's paper lanterns to celebrate chance encounters…
Ayumu
R3BIRTH's street food festival bursting with international flavor…
Ayumu
There's no festival ideas left, are there?! What kind of festival should A·ZU·NA do?!
Player
Don't worry, Ayumu. Let's think about it while we explore Ariake Garden tomorrow!
Ayumu
…Yeah! Let's hope a great idea comes to mind.
[Fade in/out.]
Player
So this is Ariake Garden.
Setsuna
This is a place where the commercial district and the living environment become one.
Shizuku
That's right. When I came here to perform with the Theater Club, I was surprised by how big it was.
Shizuku
Have you ever come here before, Ayumu?
Ayumu
No… I don't think I ever have.
Ayumu
So you'll have to show me how to enjoy myself here.
Setsuna
This is a place where everyone from children to adults can enjoy themselves from morning until night! Now let's go!
[Fade in/out.]
Setsuna
Phew, this drink is tasty!
Setsuna
What did you think, everyone?
Shizuku
This really is like its own little town, isn't it? I'd never seen much of it outside of the theater before.
Ayumu
I thought the same thing. There's not just apartments, there's even a hospital and a child center.
Shizuku
I guess that explains why wherever you go, you see entire families walking around.
Ayumu
Especially here. You won't get hurt falling over on this lawn, so it's safe for little kids to play here.
Setsuna
That's right. When I see them walking as hard as they can, it kinda…makes me want to cheer them on.
Ayumu
I think I'd like to live in a place like this once I get married…
Setsuna
Hm? Sorry, I didn't catch that.
Ayumu
N-Nothing! Never mind! I just said it's a nice place!
Ayumu
Um, for our festival, how about something that children can enjoy?
Ayumu
Something that will make the kids that come to play here think that Odaiba is a fun place to be…
Ayumu
I hope we can put on a festival that they'll remember forever.
Shizuku
I like it. That sounds perfect for this place.
Setsuna
It would be great to put on a festival to give to all the kids that come to play here!
Ayumu
So what should we do, exactly? Ring toss? Bouncy ball scooping? Candy diecutting would be nice too.
Shizuku
Storytelling and an outdoor movie showing would be nice too.
Setsuna
With all this space, why don't we try making some kind of obstacle course?
Shizuku, Ayumu, Setsuna
…………
Player
Those are all good ideas. Let's figure out where to put each thing.
Shizuku
Huh?
Setsuna
We're still not done coming up with things, though…
Ayumu
I guess that's typical of A·ZU·NA too…
Ayumu
Like she said, let's do everything! A·ZU·NA is all about doing everything you want to do!
Ayumu
Look at all this space! Let's make A·ZU·NA Land a place that has everything we want to do!
Shizuku
That's the spirit. Let's do it!
Setsuna
Let's make A·ZU·NA Land!
