I'm gonna turn off the AC.

I'm ready now.

Okay.

Here we go.

What now?!

When you use Vocaloids, the melody always ends up so difficult to sing.

But I think the melodies you write are what you really excel at.

Maybe we should find a vocalist who can handle them.

I told you I don't want that.

I see.

That only leaves one choice, then.

We give up on that,

and continue writing songs together like this.

I'm gonna go take out the trash.

Rupa.

Yes?

Do you want to try it?

Take a look at this.

If we're really trying to make it...

How's your throat?

Much better, thanks.

You still sound like this...

Subaru!

Nina, you too. Come to the sauna. It's good for your throat.

I swear, if you're gonna end up like this after every concert, you won't last long.

Good point.

Do your legs hurt?

It's not really a concert until you play enough to get comfortable with the pain.

Eugh.

I have to say though, the concert really got out of control.

I enjoyed it.

Nina really went totally wild.

You weren't any better, yourself.

On the drums, Pleia!

Pleia here!

You know I can't reveal my real name.

Characterization is important. I'm the high school girl! Cute little Pleia!

Sorry, but I'm leaving.

She sure is super into it.

You mean Nina?

Yeah.

Is that bad?

Not exactly, no.

Momoka!

What?

These are comments we got after the concert.

"Momoka was what made Diamond Dust."

"They're rocking harder than the current Diamond Dust for sure."

Oh?

Look, Nina, they're also saying you're cute.

Thank you, I guess.

Anyway, point is, everyone prefers the old Diamond Dust!

And?

What?

Are you gonna post that online?

"The current Diamond Dust is fake."

"We're the real ones, so support us instead, please!"

Should I not?

You'd actually post that?

Do you know how many followers they have?

Go check.

Twenty thousand.

And growing.

And how many do we have?

Five hundred.

That's how it is.

Then what are we supposed to do?

Nothing.

Continue as we have. Meet up sometimes, practice,

write songs, perform in concerts...

And then what?

What's our band's goal?

Weren't you focusing on college?

I'm asking about your goal, Momoka!

You're still a pain, huh.

I was feeling so refreshed after the bath.

Don't ruin it right after.

Hey, I'm curious about it, too.

About what?

You technically used to be a pro.

So I find it strange.

Why would someone like you form a band with amateurs like us?

I was wondering if you had something in mind.

Not really. Sorry to disappoint.

No goal either, then?

Nope. Nothing.

She pisses me off.

I hate it, I hate it, I hate it!

You're spilling rice.

What's her deal?!

I try to engage her seriously, but she always side-steps the point!

Because you rush into everything.

You're like a bull in a ring.

Bull, you say?

She can't speak her mind when you're like this.

Then what am I supposed to do?!

Well, first, you approach her in a way that lets her open up to you.

Slowly and gently.

Saved diffs

Liar.
No lying required!
But I really do want to know how she feels.
Actually, setting that aside, what do you want for the band, Nina?
Of course I...
Want to beat Diamond Dust?
Yeah.
That's not gonna be easy.
They're pros with a label backing them.
So?
Finally home...
Band... goals...
Band... pro... how to?
How to go pro?
Yeah.
What, aiming high now?
No, that's not exactly why I'm asking.
Just got a bit curious.
Well, back in the day you'd have label reps come by clubs like this,
scout some bands, then have them send recordings and come to auditions.
But nowadays, they just reach out to people who are clearly popular online.
Is it that important to sign with a label?
I'd say so.
For announcing new songs, posting online can be enough,
but once you're dealing with collaborations and promotions...
Well, first you need to get as popular as Diamond Dust when they were indie.
Even before they moved here, they had close to ten thousand followers.
That's how they got a label's attention.
So it all comes down to numbers.
Of course it does.
Followers, concert ticket sales...
If they're decent, someone will reach out to you.
It's going down?
It's fine if you don't want to risk failure.
It's fine if you don't want to get hurt.
I think that's a perfectly reasonable reaction.
But if that's the case, you need to tear that thing down.
It's a farce.
Do you think it would work?
There's no way to tell.
Even the best of friends can have a falling out.
And even worst enemies can stick together.
From what I can tell, though, those three would be a good match for you.
How so?
Intuition.
Wanna do anything else?
Since we have to clean up, let's end here.
Oh, good point.
You good with that, Nina?
Huh? Nina?
Say...
For our next concert, could we maybe think about our outfits and such?
I don't mind, but...
Actually, you already picked some last time.
I know.
Still...
I figured maybe we could try something cuter next time.
Cuter?
Also, can I post these pictures I took of you, Subaru?
Looking great!
Truly sparkling!
We'd gain tons of followers immed—
Of course you can't!
But you enjoyed taking them, I thought...
If you need pictures, post your own!
I'm sorry. I just thought our fans would love that.
And what if my grandma saw them?!
You want more followers that badly?
We need to build an audience!
Should all three of us wear high school uniforms to performances, then?
"We're Shin-Kawasaki Girls' Academy!"
"We're Shin-Kawasaki Girls' Academy!"
"We're Shin-Kawasaki Girls' Academy!"
"We're Shin-Kawasaki Girls' Academy!"
It would be an outright scam if you wore one.
Have some mercy.
I'll kick your ass.
But if that's what it takes to gain followers...
Seriously? You're this desperate?
Come on, Nina.
Wouldn't that be doing the same as the current Diamond Dust?
I know.
But becoming as successful as they are would be really hard without going pro.
And to go pro, we need to have a lot of fans.
Since when is that our goal?
I mean, it's the bare minimum if we want to beat Diamond Dust!
Yeah, and since when are we trying to beat them?
I told you, didn't I?
I have no grudge against them.
It's not about you. I don't want to lose.
And who cares?
Stop forcing your own personal goals and feelings onto others all the time!
I know I shouldn't.
Still, I don't want to be worse than them!
Look, I get how you feel, Nina.
Good evening!
But all this pro talk is pretty sudden.
I realize that going pro doesn't mean instant success.
That alone wouldn't be enough to beat Diamond Dust.
But I don't want to give up before we even try.
We're not the ones in the wrong.
Medium. Without onion, as always.
Medium, please.
Alright. Two mediu—
Huh?
Uh?
What?
Nice to meet you.
Girls Band Cry.
Huh, so you make music too?
Let's introduce ourselves.
Right...
I'm Rupa.
And this is Ebizuka Tomo.
We've been making music for a while now.
I've heard of this before!
It was pretty popular at some point.
You've never shown your faces, right?
It's crazy to meet the artists in person.
Adorable...
Thank you.
So could this be about...
A battle of the bands?
Not at all.
A warning?
Not at all.
I know! We were the millionth custo—
Not that, either.
You're kind of slow, aren't you?
We're scouting you! Scouting!
As in, measuring power leve—
Wrong again.
We're scouting you!
We're scouting you!
We're scouting you!
We're scouting you!
Scouting?
Who is?
Whom?
Stealing our members?!
Wrong!
I'm asking if your band would be interested in joining up with us!
No way.
It's true.
We went to see your last concert.
No way.
We discussed it afterwards, and here we are.
We'd really like to work with you.
No way!
That all you can say?
But we don't draw a big audience right now,
and our follower count is poor.
The same goes for us.
A common struggle, huh?
Still, we've been approached by a couple labels.
Wow.
Indeed.
But once we started talks,
we realized the labels would've taken us in a different direction than we wanted to go.
I swear, they're too cowardly to branch out from what's guaranteed to sell!
That's maybe taking it too far.
But it's true that Tomo couldn't see eye to eye with them.
And that's why you approached us?
Yes. I listened to your songs, and it struck me.
You really only play music you want to.
You seem like someone we could lock horns with.
Really?
Was I wrong?
No, I do put my heart into singing.
You're the queen of butting heads, after all.
Here, come in.
Thanks for having us.
Give me a moment, I'll get the lights.
Sure!
This way, I guess?
Ow!
Can't you just stand still?
I'll just move out of the way...
Huh? What's this?
A lizard?
A gecko!
I see. So your goal's the Budokan, huh?
Budokan?
S-So what? Got a problem with that?
Not at all, no.
If anything, I think it's impressive.
I've never even considered a goal like that.
It is pretty lofty.
So, the Budokan is pretty big?
You don't know?
Well, I've heard of it, and I've definitely seen it on TV.
Bumpkin.
You say that, but you're from Sendai yourself.
Huh?
Sendai?
I'm from Kumamoto!
What? No, the Sendai in Miyagi!
Oh.
Why don't we just go check it out?
Let's go.
What?
God, why are we running around at this hour?
Well, I'd say it's important for us to bond a little bit.
If I sang here...
If I sang here, I'd definitely have shown them, right?
I'd be able to say I'm just as good as Diamond Dust!
I'm sure of it.
Let's aim for the Budokan!
So? What now?
I'll message Momoka!
How are you such an idiot?!
What now?!
She did say she wanted a bassist and a keyboard player!
But they're aiming for the Budokan.
Which means they want to go pro.
You think Momoka would agree to that?
Then what are we supposed to do?
Good question.
I'm gonna try talking to her.
You're wide open.
Miss Sound Argument needs actual sound arguments.
But I don't see any other way.
Hm.
What?
You do?
Promise you won't call me a liar?
Huh?
I'll tell you, but no calling me a liar!
They are pretty good.
The mixing is pretty much professional work,
and so is the rhythm.
Right?
And they primarily play bass and keyboard!
I thought it'd be great to try at least one song together.
What do you think?
What did they say?
They'd love to!
Actually, they even asked—
For starters, they'd like to try playing together next Sunday.
You free?
Probably.
I'll share the details when we get them!
Liar!
It's called strategy!
So?
Well, you could say she's in.
You could say she's out.
What's that even mean?!
This is only what I think based on what I've seen.
But I'd say Momoka has two sides to her.
Whenever she plays music, she gets serious and gives it her all.
She wants to create something great.
She enjoys trying to make something that'll leave an impact.
But...
When she's not making music, she remembers.
That she quit her band, gave up on trying.
So why continue?
That's probably what's going through her head.
I see.
I don't care in the slightest.
So? Can we do it or not?
I don't know.
But if we play together and it sounds good,
she won't be able to refuse.
Music is her everything, after all.
I see.
Then the next step is clear.
We're getting ready now? What a pain.
What do you mean?
Just follow my lead, Nina.
Ready?
Yeah.
Isn't it nicer in a studio?
Hey, there's something wrong with this cable—
Huh?
It's the Grandma.
Wait a sec. Where's this from?!
Is this picture real?
How did you get it?
Wait, are you...
Yup!
Tomo's such a huge fan that she re-watches it three times every time it airs.
And she always cries at the end.
No need to tell them about that!
It is quite impressive to have taken a picture with her.
Awa Tendou is well-known for not letting her fans get close to her.
Awa?
Yes?
I'd like to hear the details right now!
Heya!
What's up?
You're late.
It's nice to meet you. I'm the bassist, Rupa.
This is the keyboard player, Tomo.
Huh? From the beef bowl place?
Thank you for your continued patronage.
Would it kill you to order something other than a medium and beer?
Nice to meet you.
I'm Kawaragi, guitarist.
Kawaragi Momoka, ex-member of Diamond Dust!
We're gonna have a chat later.
So? What are we playing?
Could we just go with our latest song?
I don't mind, but can they play it?
We can.
We practiced it a bit while waiting for you to arrive.
We've got some ideas for our parts.
Is that gonna be okay?
Wait a sec.
Might as well give it a go like this.
Alright.
Okay.
Ready.
One, two, three, four!
Insane.
I can't even.
Just, wow.
Say, Momoka.
Hm?
To tell you the truth,
they actually asked if we could form a single band.
And I really want to try that!
You weren't wrong, Momoka.
Your music isn't worse.
I want to prove that!
A festival?
Our first step would be getting some attention there.
They have an amateur slot in the program.
If you apply and get accepted,
you get a shot at the spotlight.
And we could get approached by a label, I guess?
Exactly.
Since festivals are basically musician expos,
everyone will be scouting there.
For the diamonds in the rough, as they say.
That's where...
Diamond Dust?
Next time: "Giving It a Name".

S-So what? Got a problem with that?
Not at all, no.
If anything, I think it's impressive.
I've never even considered a goal like that.
It is pretty lofty.
So, the Budokan is pretty big?
You don't know?
Well, I've heard of it, and I've definitely seen it on TV.
Bumpkin.
You say that, but you're from Sendai yourself.
Huh?
Sendai?
I'm from Kumamoto!
What? No, the Sendai in Miyagi!
Oh.
Why don't we just go check it out?
Let's go.
What?
God, why are we running around at this hour?
Well, I'd say it's important for us to bond a little bit.
If I sang here...
If I sang here, I'd definitely have shown them, right?
I'd be able to say I'm just as good as Diamond Dust!
I'm sure of it.
Let's aim for the Budokan!
So? What now?
I'll message Momoka!
How are you such an idiot?!
What now?!
She did say she wanted a bassist and a keyboard player!
But they're aiming for the Budokan.
Which means they want to go pro.
You think Momoka would agree to that?
Then what are we supposed to do?
Good question.
I'm gonna try talking to her.
You're wide open.
Miss Sophistry needs to come up with an actual argument.
But I don't see any other way.
Hm.
What?
You do?
Promise you won't call me a liar?
Huh?
I'll tell you, but no calling me a liar!
They are pretty good.
The mixing is pretty much professional work,
and so is the rhythm.
Right?
And they primarily play bass and keyboard!
I thought it'd be great to try at least one song together.
What do you think?
What did they say?
They'd love to!
Actually, they even asked—
For starters, they'd like to try playing together next Sunday.
You free?
Probably.
I'll share the details when we get them!
Liar!
It's called strategy!
So?
Well, you could say she's in.
You could say she's out.
What's that even mean?!
This is only what I think based on what I've seen.
But I'd say Momoka has two sides to her.
Whenever she plays music, she gets serious and gives it her all.
She wants to create something great.
She enjoys trying to make something that'll leave an impact.
But...
When she's not making music, she remembers.
That she quit her band, gave up on trying.
So why continue?
That's probably what's going through her head.
I see.
I don't care in the slightest.
So? Can we do it or not?
I don't know.
But if we play together and it sounds good,
she won't be able to refuse.
Music is her everything, after all.
I see.
Then the next step is clear.
We're getting ready now? What a pain.
What do you mean?
Just follow my lead, Nina.
Ready?
Yeah.
Isn't it nicer in a studio?
Hey, there's something wrong with this cable—
Huh?
It's the Grandma.
Wait a sec. Where's this from?!
Is this picture real?
How did you get it?
Wait, are you...
Yup!
Tomo's such a huge fan that she re-watches it three times every time it airs.
And she always cries at the end.
No need to tell them about that!
It is quite impressive to have taken a picture with her.
Awa Tendou is well-known for not letting her fans get close to her.
Awa?
Yes?
I'd like to hear the details right now!
Heya!
What's up?
You're late.
It's nice to meet you. I'm the bassist, Rupa.
This is the keyboard player, Tomo.
Huh? From the beef bowl place?
Thank you for your continued patronage.
Would it kill you to order something other than a medium and beer?
Nice to meet you.
I'm Kawaragi, guitarist.
Kawaragi Momoka, ex-member of Diamond Dust!
We're gonna have a chat later.
So? What are we playing?
Could we just go with our latest song?
I don't mind, but can they play it?
We can.
We practiced it a bit while waiting for you to arrive.
We've got some ideas for our parts.
Is that gonna be okay?
Wait a sec.
Might as well give it a go like this.
Alright.
Okay.
Ready.
One, two, three, four!
Insane.
I can't even.
Just, wow.
Say, Momoka.
Hm?
To tell you the truth,
they actually asked if we could form a single band.
And I really want to try that!
You weren't wrong, Momoka.
Your music isn't worse.
I want to prove that!
A festival?
Our first step would be getting some attention there.
They have an amateur slot in the program.
If you apply and get accepted,
you get a shot at the spotlight.
And we could get approached by a label, I guess?
Exactly.
Since festivals are basically musician expos,
everyone will be scouting there.
For the diamonds in the rough, as they say.
That's where...
Diamond Dust?
Next time: "Giving It a Name".
