1/3

Nothin’ beats taking your time and soaking yourself in a huge, spacious bathtub~♪

It feels completely different from gettin’ it done and over with in the shower, or like…

It just feels so refreshing, almost like all your exhaustion’s melted in the hot water!

Resting is also important, after all.

It’s part of our job as idols to properly rest our bodies, yeah.

I’m just repeatin’ what Taishou told me before, but… Makin’ sure to take the steps needed to rest your muscles is precisely how you can grow even stronger.

Plus, your body feels even more energized after you’ve rested, enough to make you feel like you can do your best tomorrow.

Big bathtubs are nice, aren’t they?

Yeah, like a big bathhouse, or even an onsen! Relaxin’ in an open-air bath ontop of all that would be the best!

I could train with everyone, then have fun soaking in the hot water, and then eat tasty food afterwards.

Just imaginin’ it gets me excited! I’ll invite everyone in Ryuseitai to an onsen next time I can~♪

2/3

When I’m in a big bath, I’ll end up getting a glimpse of all sorts of guys’ physical builds.

Whenever I see a huge, broad back like Taishou’s, I feel a sense of manly admiration towards it…

But lately, I’ve started to feel as though the size of someone’s muscles aren’t the only proof of their strength.

What do you mean?

Uu~myu, how do I put it… Like for example, a strength that oozes out from the inside.

No matter the body type, anyone who has a perfect grasp of their charms and works on honing ‘em is cool!

I’d also like to find my own kind of “manliness”, instead of one that’s just a copy of someone. I guess this shows just how much I wanna grow, huh?

Yeah, there’s all types of strengths.

You’re right, I’ve been gettin’ a lotta opportunities to see all sortsa people lately, so I feel like I’m a lot more aware of that.

Of course, an overwhelming kinda strength like Taishou’s is always gonna be my inspiration no matter what!

But even then, I’ll make sure I refine my own assets, and grow into a cool hero that won’t lose to anyone~♪

3/3

Oh yeah, this reminds me… There wasn’t anyone around when I went to the big bathhouse the other day… So I started hummin’ to myself.

And y’know how your voice echoes in a huge bath? So I was really gettin’ into it as I kept on singing…

Until I found myself singin’ real loudly, and ended up singing the whole song ‘til the end.

Sounds like good singing practice.

True, but the echoin’ sounds so good that I might end up assuming I’m singing way better than I really am.

But still, it felt good to sing with the echo, so it might be a pretty good way to warm up my vocals!

Next time I’m in a practice room, I’ll try to remember how it felt singin’ in the bathhouse, and put my whole spirit into it!

Did anyone hear you?

Truth is, just as I finished singin’, Shinobu-kun came in.

And what’s more, Shinkai-senpai was already in the cold bathtub nearby even before I started singing…1 I hadn’t noticed at all…

It felt embarrassin’, but they both complimented me on my singing, so I feel a li’l more confident ‘bout my singing voice now~♪

Translation Notes

  1. Large bathhouses tend to have a cold bathtub area, usually used to cool off after a sauna or hot bath. In this case, Mega Sphere’s large bathhouse has a hot bathtub area and a cold bathtub area.
