Akanezome - World Domination (Part 1)
Hikari
Look, look, Ramo-san! I've collected so many Ongeki cards!
Ramona
Oh!? Come to think of it, Ongeki had a card element too. When did you collect so many?
Lilja
These cards are sparkly and beautiful.
Hikari
Yeah, they're cute, aren't they!
Koyomi
Is this the game that Towa-san participated in a tournament for? Hikari-san seems to be playing it very enthusiastically too.
Ramona
Yeah, Hikari entered the tournament as well. She came third.
Koyomi
Third place...!? I had the impression that Hikari-san didn't usually play games...
Lilja
She got through it with her sense of rhythm. She also played against Towa in the tournament, and it was a good match.
Koyomi
Eh!? You made it into the top three just with your sense of rhythm...!?
Hikari
Heh heh, I get embarrassed when people praise me.
Hikari
At first I thought it was the same as dancing, and I was just having fun, but then I found myself completely hooked on Ongeki...
Hikari
The story is really interesting too!
Hikari
Ugh...I want everyone to try playing it at the arcade!
Ramona
That's true, I didn't really follow it because I wasn't watching Towa's training all the time... What a shame.
Koyomi
What's the story about?
Hikari
Well, the setting is a world where a game called 'Ongeki' that combines music and sports is popular.
Hikari
The main characters are the girls who compete in this sport, the 'Shooters'. They're all really cute!
Ramona
There are quite a few characters in this game. There are all sorts of types, from innocent children to cool beauties.
Lilja
I know this character. Towa used it.
Hikari
That's Arisu! At first glance, she seems a bit strange, but-
Hikari
-there’s a lot of history... Ugh... I really want you to watch the story.
Ramona
What...!? What was that just now!?
Koyomi
I see. Hikari-san, do you have an oshi... or rather, a favourite character you like?
Hikari
Yeah! Well, not really a character, but I like the unit called 'R.B.P.', and Arisu is a member of that group too.
Lilja
R.B.P.?
Hikari
That's right! I especially like this girl, Ousaka Akane! She's a reckless girl who wants to conquer the world, but she's a good girl too...!
Hikari
The scene where Akane confronts someone to protect Arisu is a must see...!
Ramona
Someone...!? Who on earth is this...?
Lilja
Hey, what are these costumes? Everyone's wearing something like a dress.
Ramona
I know this one. When they compete, they change into special outfits called 'shooter dresses', right?
Koyomi
You mean a competition outfit? Each character has a different motif, which is nice.
Hikari
That's right! Akane-chan's is a military uniform style.
Lilja
I think this outfit is good. I want to wear it.
Ramona
You mean you want to cosplay?
Ramona
This is... quite revealing.
Hikari
Queen Setsuna-chan! That dress is really cool. As expected of Lilja-san, you have good taste...
Koyomi
Well, that's what I’d expect from Lilja-san, but...
Koyomi
If you're going to cosplay, why not try something a bit different from your usual tastes?
Lilja
Different... Then, how about wearing a lot?
Ramona
That's not wrong, but...
Ramona
Oh, how about this character?
Hikari
That’s Kaede-san! She's wearing glasses, so she's definitely a bit different from Lilja-san, which is refreshing!
Lilja
That's good. I want to make girls with a stiff atmosphere like this lose their composure.
Ramona
That smile is suspicious...
Koyomi
Well, in the end, she's not going to take her clothes off, is she...?
