Souma: He~y, “Ra*bits” members ♪


Kuro: Haha, sorry for intruding on your friendly chatter. You’re talking about what to do for the [Moon-Viewing Live], right? Let us join.


Mitsuru: Woah? The nii-chans of “Akatsuki”! Why are you here? What’s going on?


Hajime: Fufu, we said the [Moon-Viewing Live] was going to be a joint live with “Akatsuki,” remember?

Mitsuru-kun, you really haven’t been listening, have you...?

We’re doing this as a group, so it’s “boo” if you don’t follow through, okay?


Mitsuru: Ye~s. But track is an individual sport, so it looks like I haven’t gotten rid of my old habits.


Nazuna: Well, you can learn bit by bit. ...And hey, “Akatsuki,” weren’t you guys going to join us mid-way?

Didn’t you say something like, it’s the same day Kuro-chin has a solo job that he took on earlier, and Keito-chin is busy with Student Council work~?


Kuro: Yup. That’s why Kanzaki was supposed to meet you guys first, and we third years would head over once we finished what we had to do~... that was the plan, but.

Things changed. I can join from the start now.

I asked Mikejima to take my place for the solo job I’d taken.

Actually. It was more like, since we’re doing the [Moon-Viewing Live]—a job he brought along—he stole my job as collateral.

But I don’t know about Hasumi. He said he wanted to join in as soon as possible, but nothing’s certain.

He headed off to the Student Council and hasn’t shown himself since.

Dammit. Maybe it’s because he learned that we’d have his back no matter what during the [Quarrel Festival], but....

It feels like he’s being spoiled—like he thinks he can just leave us alone, you know?


Souma: You can also call it trust, but. When treated too coldly, even love kept over a hundred years shall wane away; we must give warning to Hasumi-dono at some point.

No. We must once more engrave in his heart and bone how important we are.


Kuro: Haha. So even you’re at the end of your wits, Kanzaki—he’s a heartbreaker.

...Well, I bet he really understands that we’re his precious comrades. Thanks to [Quarrel Festival], you know.

But that wasn’t an official DreamFes, so it doesn’t count towards our accomplishments.

We need to show results as “Akatsuki,” or else everyone else is gonna leave us in the dust.

Anyway. Sorry for rolling back what I said earlier, but... We wanna join in from the discussion stage of things. Is that all right?


Nazuna: Oh, yeah. You’re totally welcome. We were just about to get down to business with the conversation, so your timing is actually perfect~ ♪


Hajime: I’ll go prepare some tea.... ♪


Souma: Ah, I appreciate it. Let me help, Shino. I too have experience serving tea.


Hajime: Yeep? Uh, no, I’m all right, I couldn’t possibly make our guests do such a thing?


Souma: ...? I am not a guest. We are comrades who will stand on stage together.

You do seem quite scared. Do you fear me? Is my sword the problem...?


Hajime: N-no, I’m fine! I’ll pretend it’s a big knife!

I learned that the members of “Akatsuki” are kinder than I thought thanks to [Tanabata Festival], and?


Kuro: Haha. Now that you mention it, the last time we stood on the same stage was [Tanabata Festival], huh.

But even that was an event where all sorts of “units” mixed and mingled, so.... Isn’t this the first time we’ve joined up, one-on-one, to stand on stage together?


Tomoya: That’s right. I felt like we met oddly frequently, but....

It was more like each memory left a big impression; now that you mention it, we don’t really interact much.

Because you’re the the school’s No. 2, “Akatsuki,” and we’re a weak “unit,” “Ra*bits”....

Rather, we should be in awe that we can stand on stage with you—we should see it as an honor.


Mitsuru: Muh... Tomo-chin, you’re being too self-deprecating. “Akatsuki” is amazing, but we’re growing every day, too~?

How different do you think we and “Akatsuki” are?


Kuro: Oh? You’re cheeky.... You talk big. I don’t dislike that kinda attitude.

Our match in [Tanabata Festival] ended pretty fast. We haven’t really gotten a taste of your skill....

Show us how much you’ve grown since spring during this [Moon-Viewing Live].

I’m getting excited—seriously. It’s gotten pretty rare for all three of us to stand on stage as idols during an official DreamFes, so.

I’m pretty hyped. Don’t drag us down, you rabbits.... Let’s be fully prepared and make this a great, high-class stage that’ll stick in everyone’s memories.

Let’s entertain our guests together as equal idols.

I’ve got pretty high expectations for you, so don’t let me down... “Ra*bits” ♪


Mitsuru: Hmph, that’s my line! We’re gonna shock you big time, like, “I didn’t know these guys were this amazing,” “Akatsuki” ♪


Tomoya: (Wow, Mitsuru is amazing.... If Kiryu-senpai intimidated me like that, I’d be too overwhelmed to say anything.)


Mitsuru: ? What’s wrong, Tomo-chan? Don’t stay silent, say something! Whoever flinches loses in a verbal argument!


Tomoya: No, no arguing. Let’s get along, really.

This [Moon-Viewing Live] is an opportunity for us to make another leap forward. Let’s work seriously, normally, and flawlessly.
