AKI: "Now that we've decided on our slogan, let's start making some solid plans. It'd be good if we could list up all the things we have to do today."

HONOKA: "Let's do it like today's the deadline for everything! Let's give it 100%!"

EMMA: "Hmm... So we need to talk about publicity, event operations, stands and booths..."

AI: "Hey, could I ask you guys somethin'?"

AKI: "What's up, Ai?"

AI: "I sorta have an idea about what publicity involves."

AKI: "Honoka's cousin is doing a great job at that, yes."

AI: "But what about stands and booths? And this whole operations side of things? I'm drawin' a blank here."

NOZOMI: "Oh, we put that on hold when we had our camp in Numazu, too."

KOTORI: "Oh yeah... We got all carried away and never really got to that."

Pillow fight flashbacks...

SHIZUKU: "By 'stands' do you mean stalls? Like the candy apple stalls you might find at a cultural festival?"

SETSUNA: "While it could refer to stalls like that, cultural festivals operate on a much smaller scale than what we're dealing with.
It seems as though we may need to submit a fair amount of applications, orders and other such external transactions ourselves for this event."

NICO: "Sounds like a pain."

HANAYO: "I'm sure it'll be lots of fun if we all do it together."

MAKI: "Looks like Hanayo's more of a grown-up about this than you, Nico."

NICO: "Y-You wanna throw hands?!"

RIN: "My brain is getting fried thinking of all the stuff we gotta do..."

AKI: "Don't worry Rin, that's probably the fatigue from the track meet talking."

SHIZUKU: "Well, it's as they say: no pain, no gain."

CHIKA: "Hey, so about all that... Could you guys let us handle it?"

KARIN: "Handle what, exactly?"

CHIKA: "The event operations side of things."

UMI: "It would be really helpful if you could... But are you really okay with taking on all that work?"

RIKO: "Yes, all of us discussed this after the camp was over. We figured it would probably be better if Aqours played a more central role since we've helped run an event before."

DIA: "We should be able to provide at least a little bit of assistance with our experience."

RUBY: "We really gave it our all for that event."

AKI: "The Numazu Summer Festival, right? That takes me back."

YOSHIKO: "You helped us a lot with that festival too, my right hand man."

HANAMARU: "We really appreciated how you stopped Yoshiko from going too wild, zura."

YOSHIKO: "It's YO-HA-NE! ZU-RA-MA-RU! And what are you talking about? Those Bloody Moon Sticks were my greatest creation yet!"

AKI: *Gulp*

MARI: "Yeah, you really did your best, Yoshiko."

YOSHIKO: "I said it's Yohane!"

KANAN: "It'd be a big help if you could give us your assistance this time, too."

AKI: "Say no more! I'll do anything I can to help out."

CHIKA: "So, what about the rest of you?"

ELI: "Your offer's really reassuring. Could we take you up on it?"

YOSHIKO: "Then consider yourself a passenger on Noah's Ark and leave it to me, Yohane!"

HANAMARU: "That's gonna make everyone even more worried, zura..."

YOSHIKO: "What's that supposed to mean?!"

HANAMARU: "And as a self-proclaimed 'fallen angel', you should know that Noah's Ark is a biblical story. zura. It completely contradicts your persona, zura."

YOSHIKO: "Th-That's..."

DIA: "That's enough from you two. First, we need to decide how many food stalls are required based on the number of anticipated visitors."

YOU: "Since we're gathering ALL the nation's school idols, it'd be pretty cool if we could get together regional delicacies from across the country too."

AYUMU: "I would love to see some dishes made especially for the event, too!"

MARI: "Oh? Sounds like it's time for my Special Deluxe Stewshine!"

YOSHIKO: "Mwa hah hah. The time has come for the Bloody Moon Sticks, otherwise known as the 'Tears of a Fallen Angel: Revolution', to make their grand return."

AKI: "?!"

RUBY: "I-It's gonna be super spicy again, huh...?"

YOSHIKO: *Sigh* "I'll make sure to whip up a child-friendly version as well this time."

AKI: "Oh, thank God..."

RIKO: "We'll need to put up some guideposts around the venue as well."

CHIKA: "We gotta have an area for kids who get lost too, 'cause otherwise they'll just be lost with nowhere to go."

KANAN: "Then we should get some toys so the kids don't get bored waiting for their parents to come get them, too!"

You'd have to be a next level idol maniac incompetent parent to let your child get lost at a SCHOOL IDOL FESTIVAL...!

RUBY: "Hanamaru and I wi write up the announcement scripts again. Sounds good to you, Hanamaru?"

HANAMARU: "Yup, zura!"

DIA: "Given what a big event this is turning out to be, might I suggest some limited-edition merchandise?"

AKI: "Oh hell yeah! Can you girls get in contact with SEGA again to see if they can make some School Idol Festival nesoberis of all 27 of you?"

HANAMARU: "I'm the Aqours poster girl for them, I can do that, zura!"

RIN: "Me too, nya!"

AKI: "We could have them all in matching costumes or something."

HONOKA: "W-Wow... The list of things we have to do just keeps getting longer and longer..."

AI: "Here I always just dropped in on these things. I had no idea it took this much planning. I guess it takes more than just gusto to make a live show come alive..."

KANATA: "It takes more than gusto to make a pun land too, Ai."

AI: "C'mon, it wasn't that bad, was it?"

AKI: "Uh..."

RINA: "It sounds like fun, but all this important stuff keeps coming up. Rina-chan Board says, 'Confused'."

ELI: "Come on, guys. I get that you're surprised, but you've got to contribute. Aqours might be taking the lead, but that doesn't mean you can just dump this all on them."

DIA: "Indeed, it would make things much easier for us if you speak up."

KASUMI: "Oh, me, me! I've got an idea! Listen to me!"

Everyone's getting so into it... Better roll my sleeves up and help out as much as I can too!
