Episode 14 - Link! Like!
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…
“TetherLink! Live!”?
Exactly!
Earlier, thanks to Sayaka-chan sharing her data with me, I was able to connect to the Internet and use SIC!
So if we did that, only with a ton of people, then…!
But… doing that for thirty minutes…!?
It’s pretty simple math, so let’s see… if one person can provide ten seconds, we’d need… 18 people?
180 people.
That’s like, half of all the students here!
Yeah! It’ll be enough!
It sounds so unrealistic…
Would it even be possible in the first place? Tethering with 180 people, I mean.
I don’t really know how tethering works, but…
I think I remember hearing that you could collect a bunch of data in one place or something…?
…Supposing that we could manage the technical issues.
Would that many people be willing to assist the School Idol Club, though?
For that–
Shiina:
W-Whoa!
Ena:
Agh…
Biwako:
S-Sorry to interrupt this important discussion!
You guys!
Shiina:
I’m really sorry about what happened earlier, Kaho-chan…
Biwako:
Back to what you said earlier, we’d love to help you!
You three…
Ena:
I mean, not being able to use the Internet’s also super inconvenient for us! Right, everyone!?
Biwako:
Yeah!
This’ll go great! I’m sure it will!
Hmhm… I suppose so. Surely it will.
…Alright! If that’s what we’re going with, then I’m gonna go out and ask around for other girls who’d be down to do this!
That’s my Megu-chan! It’s like she always says, who you know is more important than what you know!
As long as we can stream…!
All that’s left is to win.
Had it been just me and Tsuzuri, I don’t think we would have made it this far… So this is the power of our links.
Yeah, the power of our links!
The power of links…?
Yes?
Captain.
President, actually. What is it?
I did some more calculations… If we’re trying to stream, we might need more data than our earlier estimates.
Huh!? So it’s a no-go!?
So how about this? We ask not just Hasunosora, but everyone around the world.
So… we ask everyone to contribute their data, Professor!?
Is that even possible!?
It’ll be just like asking the students here.
Tsuzuri looks so smart right now…!
Math and stats are what I’m good at.
Even though you got a 0 in Japanese!
Somehow, this is sounding more and more doable…
But if we do this, and one of the subunits manages to win the Hokuriku qualifier…!
Yeah. The School Idol Club’s future would be saved.
…But that would mean…
Of Cerise Bouquet, DOLLCHESTRA, and Mira-Cra Park!, two subunits would not advance past the Hokuriku qualifiers.
So blunt…! Are you okay with that, Sayaka-chan…?
…I think performing at the actual competition would be an excellent showcase of the results of our practice.
Personally, I want to try out what I’ve worked so hard to perfect as a subunit together with Tsuzuri-senpai.
I wanna perform with Saya. Right now, DOLLCHESTRA is the art I’ve made.
Megu-chan…
Don’t make that face at me, Ruri-chan! You know that’s my weakness…!
Besides, Ruri-chan. Didn’t you want to perform as Mira-Cra Park!?
I understand that you don’t like seeing anyone lose because you’re very nice, but…
Listen, I understand how you feel. I get it, but… I don’t want to give up this chance.
I love Mira-Cra Park! very much.
I love it just like everyone else loves their subunits.
I love it too! I love performing with you in this amazing toy chest, but…
…Let’s aim to win Love Live!
Ah, that’s it… The power of our links… Yeah, that’s what this is!
We’re gonna perform as our own subunits! But, that’s how we’re all gonna advance through the Hokuriku qualifier!
Through the power of our links!
K-Kaho-san…?
Huh? What is it, what is it?
We use the power of our links, along with the tethering…! And we use all that power to let our songs resound even further!
It’ll be alright! We can do this! We’ll satisfy everyone, and no one will need to be sad!
This’ll be the performance of our dreams!
Kaho-chan, you mean…!?
The performance of our dreams…?
Yeah! And I’ll call it…
You’ll call it…!?
The Hasunosora Girls’ High School Idol Club! Link! Like! Medley!
“Link! Like! Medley!”!?
This’ll do it! Everyone will blossom!
