With the Love Live! Hokuriku qualifier on the horizon, our six protagonists find themselves getting more motivated for the competition. However, when talks of an Internet ban within the school premises starting next year arise…
Sorry to keep you waiting, Kaho-san. It seems I’ll manage to obtain permission.
Are you really gonna be performing here…!? I have some real bad memories about this place…!
It’s only natural, considering this is where I fell from the stage while covering for you, hmhm.
But if we succeed on our second chance here, those memories would be supplanted by good ones, wouldn’t they?
That’s… right…!
Of course, as this is still just a preliminary examination, we can’t say anything for certain. Let’s look through as many potential venues as time permits.
With that being said, our next destination is–
Wow! Senpai, we’re at the Kanazawa Station plaza! It’s huuuge! So shiny! It’s like a big city!
Ah…! Kozue-senpai, there’s Wi-Fi here!? We can connect to the Internet! I can open SIC!
Oh, my… you’re right.
C-Couldn’t we do a reeeally short stream here!?
We stopped streaming all of a sudden, so people might be worried…
Hm… I’m sorry to disappoint, but I suggest we refrain for now.
Openly broadcasting our Internet usage in the midst of the Internet ban might just add fuel to the fire.
Oh, that’s true… Sorry…
It’s alright. Don’t stress yourself; everything should be back to normal very soon. Personally, not being able to livestream also has me feeling somewhat discouraged.
Huh, you too, Kozue-senpai!?
While I’m still not particularly good at it…
Having our fans on the other side of the screen gives me a sense of familiarity that motivates me to try harder at being a school idol.
I totally get what you mean! A lot!
–Gah! Kozue-senpai, hide your phone, quick!
Huh?
What’s the matter, Kaho-san?
N-Nothing… I just felt like some ominous presence was watching us just now… I-I hope it was just my imagination, though, ahaha….
Dorm Mother:
Ah, Hinoshita-san, Otomune-san. What a coincidence, meeting each other during our shopping trips.
Eek–
G-Good afternoon, Dorm Mother. Working on a holiday must certainly be difficult.
Dorm Mother:
Ah, no, it comes with this line of work. Now, as for you–
W-We have our excursion request right here! We got permission! 100% legal!
Dorm Mother:
Oh, I see. From what I’ve heard, it seems that excursion requests haven’t been frequently accepted as of late…
Eek… well, um… help me, Kozue-senpai…!
Kaho-san. Kaho-san, it’s alright. The dorm mother may enforce school regulations strictly, but she is a very kind person.
Dorm Mother:
No worries. Being feared is also part of the job. Also, I am intruding on your leisure time.
Dorm Mother:
I know that there are certainly some unreasonable circumstances going on at the moment, but…
Please, do your best, so that you two will have no regrets. For the School Idol Club.
Huh? Yes… Thank you very much.
Senpai, just now… Was she supporting us…?
I… believe so. Perhaps the dorm mother is… maybe she is actually one of the modernists.
Huh!? Wait, we’ve gotta go after her and thank her, right now–
No, Kaho-san. Supposing our theory is correct, that’s all the more reason to work to change the school.
She said so herself, didn’t she?
Do our best, so we will have no regrets…
Exactly. But I’m sure it’ll be okay. If there’s one thing that’s for certain, none of us will be performing alone.
After all, we have a lot of people supporting us, wouldn’t you agree?
A lot of people… Yeah!
So you asked around at the figure skating place, Sayaka-chan?
Yes. That place holds a lot of memories for DOLLCHESTRA.
They wouldn’t mind hosting a performance there, so we’ve secured permission to use it.
Whoa–! Nice, that’s great!
I’m still worried… I wish there was a place that Megu-chan would deem worthy…
It’s really amazing seeing how hard you two have been working. I’ve also… I’ve also gotta help everyone out even more!
Apologies for the wait, Kaho-san. You two as well.
Time for Stage Hunt, Season 2.
For the most part, we’ve gotten permission to use all the places we were interested in, so starting today, all the subunits will be working on developing our stage for our performance.
Yes. It doesn’t matter how many potential venues we have.
Because the future of the School Idol Club is counting on this!
No compromise!
Agreed. Now then, let’s go and look for some fire spots!
Fire…
D-Did I use that word incorrectly…?
You’re okay, it’s right. Alright, let’s aim to be fire champions, Saya!
O-Okay!
Hehehe, we’ve got the streaming queen and solo stroll lover!
When it comes to fire spots, there’s no way we lose!
Fire!
Argh! Everyone, just tell me if it doesn’t sound right!
Ahaha!
But you know, we’ve been managing pretty well.
Back when the Internet ban was first announced, I really had no idea what I was gonna do.
We really have. However, there’s still plenty of work to be done.
Deciding the venue, making our stage, putting our setlist together, perfecting our singing and dancing…
Ahhh! F-For now, let’s just focus on tackling what’s right in front of us one problem at a time!
Hmhm, right.
And, one of us will be advancing to the Love Live! Finals.
One of us…
…I…
Kaho-san?
N-Nothing… let’s give it our best shot…!
Our best shot… I… I’ve gotta do what I can…!
