Chapter 1

Season: ES 2nd Year

Heh~! ♪ I don’t get to wear school uniform-looking outfits on stage much when I’m in fine, so this feels a little fresh to me!

And yet it suits you perfectly, huh? That’s Himemiya for you~

I could say the same back at you! It looks just as good on you, Mashiro~♪

Haha, we’re sounding like the lyrics somehow. Y’know, the part about saying "it looks good on you", and get "right back at you" as a response.

Maybe you make a good point~ You and I wouldn’t have that sweet-sour air of the song between us, though!

Chapter 2

It’s almost time for the performance… I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous, but I think I’m more composed than I thought I’d be~♪

Aaalright, I’ll totes make this live show a success~!

Mhm, mhm, that’s the spirit! Let’s show off the results of our hard work as much as we like~♪

Yes! I’m the only second-year here, so I was worried if I’d turn out okay—

But thanks to all my seniors giving me tips and tricks to dancing, I’m feeling more confident.

And as a bonus, Hinata-senpai even helped me out with my solo practice sessions… so I can’t ever express just how grateful I am!

Ahaha. I thought I ought to show my senior side every once in a while~♪ I’m glad to know I could help ya! ☆

Chapter 3

This reminds me… When we first tried dancing with the heart prop, I was so focused on moving the prop that I kept messing up the steps~

Yeah, since we had to think about the right angles and height for the prop, so that the audience could see the heart shape nicely. I took a long while to get used to it, too.

But the two of you practiced a whole lot until you became perfect at the dance! So amazing~♪

Nah, aren’t you the one who got a good grasp of it from the start, Harukawa?

Mhm. Your dance moves were so clean, I even practiced while following your movements as an example, Harukawa-kun!

HaHa~♪ Your praises make Sora super happy!

Chapter 4

Huh? Takamine-senpai, you’ve been quiet this whole time… Is there something wrong?

Ah, no. I was just thinking about how much has happened since the day this shuffle unit was announced until today.

Like how we thought up ideas for the choreography together and stuff…

Oh yeah, and I did some special training with you, right?

Yeah. Shiratori-kun and I had to look to the front at the same time as each other, but we couldn’t get the timing down right. Then you asked me if I’d like to do special training…

Honestly, I only thought it was gonna be tough work at first. But we managed to pace our movements in the end, so I think it’s good I joined you…

Chapter 5

Uwaaah, Mashiro-senpai’s expression just now was the best~! I could toootally feel the happiness of meeting your crush!

Mhm, mhm. It made me want to cheer on the two’s love!

Haha, feels embarrassing to hear all that, y’know~

Since we were told the theme of this song is romantic love, I watched some romance movies and studied them as thoroughly as possible. I’m glad to know I was able to achieve the results I wanted~♪

Chapter 6

The live show was a massive success~ Sora’s so happy to perform on stage with everyone!

All our fans seem to have enjoyed it, too… What a relief.

HaHa~♪ Alright then, Mido-chan! Copy after Sora by raising both arms up high~ We’ll high five to celebrate our success…☆

Ehhh…? Well, if you say so, Harukawa-kun…

Then let’s go straight for the high five! ♪ Ehehe, Sora got to make another fun memory~

Chapter 7

Great job, Hime-kun~! The venue was super lively~♪

Woah, don’t hug me out of nowhere! You surprised me!

Ahaha, sorry, sorry! I got too excited and couldn’t help it~

All that constant practice we did together was worth the trouble, our singing and dancing was spot on… I really feel like I also got to put out my best performance!

I feel the same. Erm, I know it’s weird for me to mention this again, but…

I’m so glad I got to be part of this unit, SPRINT・ING!, with all of you! ♪
