    Did someone ask her to come?
[00:11] Anon
    She's kinda intimidating.

    Wait!
[00:28] Taki
    Hey!
[00:41] Anon
    It's so old.
[00:42] Soyo
    It looks like it's been used
    for a long time.
[00:44] Rāna
    It's my grandma's.
[00:46] Rāna
    Aren't you going to do it?
[00:48] Anon
    What?
[00:48] Soyo
    What do you mean?
[00:51] Rāna
    Form a band.
SIGN    #5 I'm Not Running Away!
[02:54] Soyo
    She plays on this stage
    sometimes, doesn't she?
[02:59] Taki
    She's RiNG's stray cat.
[03:02] Soyo
    Um, Rāna-chan, was it?
[03:05] Soyo
    You like matcha?
[03:06] Rāna
    Yeah. And soba.
[03:09] Soyo
    Really? Well, they are yummy, right?
[03:11] Soyo
    So, what did you mean about forming a band?
[03:14] Rāna
    I'll do the band.
[03:15] Soyo
    But, um, what do you mean?
[03:17] Tomori
    You want to join our band?
[03:20] Rāna
    I'll do it.
[03:21] Anon
    Why?
[03:24] Soyo
    But why our band?
[03:27] Soyo
    You're so good, other bands must
    have invited you to join, right?
[03:32] Rāna
    They were all boring women.
[03:35] Soyo
    What?
[03:37] Rāna
    But...
[03:44] Taki
    What?
[03:46] Rāna
    An interesting woman.
[03:47] Taki
    What?!
[03:51] Taki
    This girl!
[03:53] Soyo
    She's just a little scared.
[03:55] Anon
    Um, I have something I have to do!
[03:57] Taki
    What?
[03:58] Anon
    Sorry! I'll text you!
[04:05] Taki
    What's with her?
[04:07] Rāna
    Is band time over?
[04:11] Rāna
    Bye-bye.
[04:14] Soyo
    Um...
[04:22] Taki
    Wait, she didn't pay for her parfait!

    Welcome home!

    Anon?
[04:37] Anon; internal
    Talking about "G" and "F,"
[04:38] Anon; internal
    just how embarrassing can I possibly be?!
[04:41] Anon; internal
    And if that Rāna girl joins the band...
[04:45] Anon; internal
    then I'll be as invisible as air!
[04:47] Anon; internal
    What do I do?!
[04:55] Taki
    Honestly.
[04:56] Taki
    What's with all of them?
[04:57] Taki
    Leaving in the middle
    of a discussion like that.
[05:00] Taki
    And we still can't tell if that
    stray cat joined our band or not.
[05:07] Tomori
    "Haru Hikage" is different now, isn't it?
[05:18] Taki
    You don't have to hold back
    around Sakiko, you know?
[05:24] Taki
    I'm really happy that I can play in a
    band with you again, Tomori.
[05:29] Taki
    Because your song...
    I haven't been able to forget it.
[05:37] Taki
    Bye.
[05:46] Anon
    From here... I do this?
[05:56] Anon; internal
    Even if I start practicing now,
    it's not like I'll get good right away.

[06:28] Anon
    Hey, Tomori?
[06:30] Anon
    What do you think about writing a new song?
[06:31] Tomori
    What?
[06:32] Anon
    I was thinking that a new
    band really needs a new song!
[06:36] Tomori
    A new song?
[06:37] Anon
    And about the guitar part,
[06:39] Anon
    I thought it might be nice to have
    the beginning be kinda easy.
[06:42] Anon
    I mean, we have other stuff
    to get ready, too.
[06:44] Anon
    Do you have anything quick that sounds good?
[06:45] Tomori
    Anon-chan, I'm sorry.
[06:47] Tomori
    I can only write lyrics.
[06:49] Anon
    Oh, right!
[06:51] Anon
    Sorry, I was getting ahead of myself.

[07:09] Ririko
    I see.
[07:12] Tsugumi
    We asked everyone we could, but...
[07:15] Saaya
    Are there any bands that seem like
    they might be able to perform soon?
[07:24] Taki
    Huh?
[07:25] Soyo
    A concert organized
    by Poppin'Party and Afterglow?
[07:28] Soyo
    Taki-chan, that's amazing!
[07:30] Anon
    Isn't it too soon for us
    to be performing live?
[07:32] Taki
    What?
[07:33] Soyo
    Is it?
[07:34] Taki
    You said that playing live was
    our short-term goal last time, didn't you?
[07:37] Anon
    But we haven't rehearsed even once!
[07:39] Taki
    We can start today.
[07:40] Soyo
    That's true.
[07:42] Soyo
    Oh, how much time would we have?
[07:44] Taki
    About ten minutes.
    I think we could do two songs.
[07:47] Soyo
    Hmm.
[07:48] Soyo
    It's true that we haven't
    played together yet.
[07:50] Soyo
    Maybe focusing on one song would be best.
[07:53] Anon
    Wait, wait! There's almost no time left!
[07:56] Taki
    What about you, Tomori?
[07:59] Taki
    What do you think about playing live?
[08:01] Tomori
    I... I think...
[08:08] (Flashback) Anon
    But, you can just try your hardest so that
    it doesn't go wrong next time, right?
[08:16] Tomori
    Yes.
[08:17] Soyo
    That settles it.
[08:18] Anon
    What?
[08:20] Ririko
    Understood.
[08:21] Ririko
    I'll talk to everyone
    in Poppin'Party and Afterglow.
[08:25] Taki
    If you would, please.
[08:26] Taki
    Also, would it be possible
    for us to rent a studio?
[08:28] Ririko
    Of course!
[08:29] Anon
    You're already making reservations?
[08:31] Taki
    Here and here...
[08:33] Anon
    That's a little, um...
[08:36] Anon
    I think you probably don't need
    to make so many reservations at once.
[08:40] Taki; background
    If we don't reserve them now,
    they'll fill up fast.
[08:41] Soyo
    What's wrong? Can't decide?
[08:42] Anon; background
    Oh, I didn't know that.
[08:45] Taki; background
    Here, too.
[08:46] Anon; background
    Huh?
[08:46] Taki; background
    What?

    N-Nothing.
[08:51] Anon; internal
    What do I do about the live performance?
[08:53] Anon; internal
    Everyone in Afterglow seems kind of scary.
[08:57] Anon; internal
    Maybe I really should quit after all.
[09:02] Anon
    Huh? What's all this?
[09:06] Anon
    Tomori-chan?
[09:08] Tomori
    I don't... want to perform live.
[09:12] Anon
    What?
[09:13] Soyo
    Why not?
[09:15] Anon
    We don't have a band name,
    and we don't have costumes either.
[09:17] Anon
    Tomori-chan said she wasn't sure
    about doing the concert, too.
[09:24] Soyo
    Tomori-chan, why not do it?
[09:25] Anon
    I just told you!
[09:26] Taki
    Tomori, why?
[09:28] Anon
    I just said...
[09:29] Tomori
    It'll end.
[09:33] Tomori
    If we perform live,
    that'll be the end of the band.
[09:38] Anon
    That'll be the end?
[09:44] Soyo
    Tomori-chan, thank you for telling us.
[09:53] Soyo
    You're scared, right?
[09:55] Soyo
    But, you know, this time
    we'll talk about everything,
[09:59] Soyo
    so it'll be all right.
[10:00] Soyo
    So, you see?
[10:15] Soyo
    Taki-chan, are you all right?
[10:20] Soyo
    For Tomori-chan, what happened
    with CRYCHIC really was a huge shock.
[10:26] Soyo
    But at this rate, everything
    will turn out the same way.
[10:32] Soyo
    Should we give up on the concert?
[10:40] Soyo
    We can just keep going like this,
    never performing live.
[10:45] Soyo
    We can play as a band just in the studio.
[10:47] Taki
    I want to perform live.
[10:50] Taki
    When I first heard Tomori's song,
    I thought it was about me.
[10:55] Taki
    All the feelings
    I couldn't put into words...
[10:58] Taki
    Tomori turned all of them into a song.
[11:00] Taki
    It told me that it's all right
    for me to be alive.
[11:04] Soyo
    Taki-chan.
[11:06] Taki
    That's why... when we were going to be
    a band again, it made me really happy.
[11:13] Taki
    I thought Tomori felt the same way.
[11:15] Taki
    But...
[11:16] Soyo
    You should tell Tomori-chan all of that.
[11:20] Taki
    It's all just coming from my own ego, so...
[11:25] Soyo
    Why is it that we can never say the
    things that are most important?
[11:32] Soyo
    That's why everyone in CRYCHIC ended
    up not connecting with each other.
[11:35] Soyo
    But we don't want to repeat
    the same thing, right?
[11:40] Soyo
    Taki-chan, you should try
    telling Tomori-chan how you feel.
[11:44] Soyo
    Just like Tomori-chan's song reached you,
[11:48] Soyo
    I'm sure that your feelings
    will reach Tomori-chan.
[11:51] Soyo
    I just know she'll understand.
[11:56] Taki
    I don't ever want to make
    Tomori feel lonely again.
[12:01] Soyo
    I agree.
[12:29] Soyo
    Sorry to keep you waiting!
[12:33] Soyo
    Thank you both for coming.
[12:36] Soyo
    Today, I wanted to have a real talk
    about what we're doing next.
[12:42] Anon
    By "what we're doing next,"
    you mean the concert, right?
[12:45] Soyo
    No, I'm talking about further in the future.
[12:49] Soyo
    Right now, we're all
    on different pages, right?
[12:53] Soyo
    Is there really any point
    to being in a band like this?
[12:58] Soyo
    When we decided to form a band,
[13:00] Soyo
    we said we'd make sure
    to talk everything through, right?
[13:04] Soyo
    But we're already failing to connect.
[13:07] Soyo
    At this rate, everything
    will go wrong again.
[13:12] Taki
    I think doing the concert
    is the best option.
[13:15] Taki
    I think that for all of us to
    come together and move forward,
[13:18] Taki
    we need a common goal.
[13:20] Taki
    It's because we don't have a goal
    that we haven't been able to rehearse.
[13:23] Taki
    And some of us won't even try to practice.
[13:26] Taki
    I think everyone should hear Tomori's song.
[13:30] Taki
    That's why...
[13:32] Taki
    I think we should do it
    so that this doesn't end.
[13:33] Taki
    Do the concert.
[13:36] Anon
    But Tomori-chan is saying
    she doesn't want to perform!
[13:39] Anon
    And isn't it way too short
    notice to perform this time?
[13:43] Anon
    Let's get everything ready the right
    way and perform at our best!
[13:46] Tomori
    Anon-chan...
[13:47] Anon
    If we do that, then I think that
    even Tomori-chan will want to—
[13:50] Taki
    Who do you think you are?
[13:52] Taki
    You keep pretending you're
    advocating for Tomori,
[13:54] Taki
    but you just don't want to perform, right?
[13:56] Taki
    Tomori is worried that the band
    will break up if we do the concert.
[14:00] Anon
    That's...
[14:01] Taki
    You're using that to run away, aren't you?
[14:04] Taki
    You're running from the guitar.
[14:05] Anon
    I-I'm not running away.
[14:08] Taki
    You can't play guitar, can you?
[14:09] Taki
    You're always trying to dodge rehearsal.
[14:12] Anon
    I-I practice!
[14:14] Taki
    The only things you seem fired up about are
    things like where you stand, the band name,
[14:17] Taki
    or stuff like G and F chords!
[14:18] Taki
    If we don't decide what to do about the concert,
    you're the one I'm certain will run away.
[14:22] Taki
    Because that's what
    you've done up until now.
[14:25] Anon
    I'm not running away!
[14:28] Tomori
    Anon-chan!
[14:35] Soyo
    It's something that someone
    would have had to say eventually.
[14:47] Anon
    I said I wasn't running away,
    and then I ran as fast as I could.

    And you... pull me forward, too.
[20:45] Tomori
    That's why... the band formed.
[20:48] Tomori
    You said that...
[20:50] Tomori
    if you move forward, it isn't the end.
[20:53] Tomori
    I... also...
[20:59] Tomori
    I also...
[21:01] Tomori
    want to move forward, even if I feel lost.
[21:12] Anon
    Feeling lost, huh?
[21:14] Anon
    In that case...
[21:17] Anon
    Should we move forward together?
[21:18] Tomori
    Huh?
[21:20] Anon
    As lost girls, the two of us.
[21:31] Soyo
    I wonder how far they went.
[21:43] Tomori
    Um...
[21:49] Anon
    We...
[21:51] Anon
    will do the concert!
