NICO: *Ahem* "We will now begin the first 'Who Knows School Idols the Best Tournament'!"

HANAYO: "Ugh... I don't like competition. But today, I can't afford to lose!"

RUBY: "M-Me neither!"

EMMA: "I love school idols so much I moved halfway across the world. I can't lose here!"

SETSUNA: "I've defeated Maki in a similar contest before. I'm going to win again today!"

KANATA: "Er, why are we doing this again?"

EMMA: "Come on, Kanata, were you dozing off again? We were talking about going to have fun somewhere, remember? And no one could decide on one thing to do."

SETSUNA: "So the people who wanted to belt it all out in karaoke like Nico suggested came here."

KANATA: "So...why are we having a competition all of a sudden?"

DIA: *Sigh* "That would be a long story if we got into it."

...

*FIVE MINUTES EARLIER*

NICO: "Setsuna! You really showed Maki the ropes that time. But I would have definitely won!"

SETSUNA: "My my, Nico, you're awfully confident, but when it comes to knowing this subject, I'm not going to lose!"

NICO: "Insolence! All right, I'll show you just how much knowledge I've got crammed into my head!"

DIA: "Now hold on a moment, you two. My Ruby isn't going to fall behind, either!"

RUBY: "Pigii! S-Sis... Um, I..."

HANAYO: "I-I'm a little confident here, too."

NICO: "What's with all of you?! Don't you know I'm the best here?!"

DIA: "Very well, then. Come, everyone, let us finally sew who knows the most about school idols, once and for all!"

...

KANATA: "Ahh, I see. So this is something I've got no chance at, then? I'll just...take a nap, then. Zzz..."

DIA: "I won't let you sleep!"

KANATA: "Eep?!"

DIA: "You and I have the critical role of selecting the songs and judging the results!"

KANATA: "Wahhh!"

DIA: "Now then, Kanata, play the songs as written here. Ruby, I believe in you! Take it home!"

RUBY: "Uwahhh..."

NICO: "You better remain impartial, Dia."

HANAYO: "You're one to talk..."

KANATA: "Well, here goes. First one, staaaaaart..."

EMMA, NICO, SETSUNA: "M-"

HANAYO: "ME, ME! This is Big Love Brain by the Kochi school idol group Zeyo Zeyo☆All right!"

DIA: "Correct!"

NICO: "N-Not bad, Hanayo."

SETSUNA: "No fair, I knew that one!"

EMMA: "Ahhh, I was so close!"

KANATA: "Hm? Ruby, you're kinda shaking a lot. You okay? Too cold in here? Need me to turn up the heat?"

RUBY: "E-E-Everyone's just so into it I can't say a thing!"

DIA: "Ruby, you must do your best. No one loves school idols more than you, correct?"

RUBY: "You're right, Dia! All right, I'll do my Rubesty!"

DIA: "That's the spirit! Now then, Kanata, give us the second song!"

KANATA: "All right, here's the second song! Staaart!"

HANAYO, SETSUNA, EMMA, NICO: "M---"

RUBY: "Me, me! Th-This is the song Shisa fron the Okinawa school idol group Kurusa!"

DIA: "Correct! Good job, Ruby!"

RUBY: "Yeah! Sis, I can do it!"

DIA: "There you go. You can do it if you try. I knew you could. Have more confidence."

RUBY: *Sniff* "Ahh, Sis!"

EMMA: *Giggle* "Look at that sisterly love. Now I miss my brothers and sisters, too!"

KANATA: *Yawn* "Now I wanna see Haruka, too!"

NICO: "Wh-Why's the mood getting so sappy all of a sudden?! Now it doesn't feel like a competition at all!"

HANAYO: "Well, we know that we're all about as knowledgeable about school idols as each other, so do we even have to compete?"

EMMA: "You know, you're right. Like, we all started to answer at the same time!"

KANATA: "How about you guys all say you're number one?"

EMMA: "Yeah! We are number one!"

DIA: "Indeed, I would have no problem with that."

RUBY: "Yeah, we all love school idols!"

DIA: "Which is why we cannot let the School Idol Festival be canceled!"

NICO: "It'll be all right! We can do anything if we all put our heads together!"

HANAYO: "Yeah! Nico's right!"

EMMA: "If we, μ's and Aqours all work together... This will definitely work out!"

KANATA: "Let's all stand on the School Idol Festival stage together!"

NICO: "That's right! No matter what went into canceling it, we'll do anything to make our dreams come true! C'mon, say it together! Nico-Nico-N--"

RUBY: "Rubesty!"

NICO: "Hey! I'm supposed to say the line here. Could you not steal my vibe, please?"
