Lesson Video
Basic training part 2, isolation! First, put your back against a wall and try moving just your neck back and forth!
Xue
Without moving my body, just my neck back and forth...like this?
Xue
Ngh, nnnghhh...!
Xue
It won't move at all! This isn't humanly possible!?
Lesson Video
Building a body with a stable axis is a must for improving at dance! Practice every day! Check it out!
Xue
Haah, I should've taken dance class seriously. At this rate I'll never catch up...
Xue
Even if I want to show off by trying a big move, if the crucial video looks like this...
Xue
Alright! I'm doing a windmill!
Xue
...Ugh, oh! Whoa!? Gyaaaah!?
Xue
Anyone watching this would just think I'm flailing around. Hikari made it look so easy...
Xue
Damn, I can't stay losing like this, but I don't feel like I can get better at all...
Xue
Ugh, worrying about it is just a waste of time!
Xue
I'll do some rehearsal to change my mood...
Hikari
Six... seven... eight...!
Xue
(Ugh. Of all people, Hikari's here.)
Xue
(I'll turn back before she spots me...hm?)
Hikari
Doing it slowly is still tiring! One more set!
Xue
(When your body's axis doesn't shake, it looks clean. Is strength training the secret to Hikari's dancing...?)
Xue
(Then if I find out her strength training menu, I might be able to get ahead of her. Heh heh heh...!)
Hikari
Phew! Three sets done!
Xue
Strength training again. How can you keep doing it so willingly?
Hikari
It's not about liking it, it's just normal to do it. Next is planks to train my core! 10 minutes for 3 sets!
Xue
You do strength training for a total of 30 minutes...? That's terrible time efficiency.
Hikari
If you listen to music or watch videos, it goes by in a flash! It's casual strength training you can do on the side!
Xue
Oh? I see. So that's the secret. Having a stable body axis is important for dance, right?
Hikari
Of course!
Xue
Heh heh...
Xue
Is there anything else? Things to be careful about in daily life?
Hikari
Sleep! And meals are proper training too!
Xue
Hmm? I'll try making something. What do you want to eat?
Hikari
Hot pot! I'm 20% made of hot pot!
Xue
You eat that much and it's only 20%? Well, whatever. Tonight's hot pot, look forward to it.
Hikari
Yay! I'll work hard at strength training! Hup...!
Xue
(Heh heh heh...what a carefree fool, not knowing she's being outsmarted. I'll make you realise the power of me when I'm serious-!)
Xue
Gueh, gufeh...! I can't even endure one set, I'm dying...!
Xue
I forgot, she's a stamina monster beyond reason. Forget dance basics, the fundamental stamina is different...
Hikari
Xue, sorry! I was so focused on planks I forgot to tell you!
Xue
I bet you're going to say this isn't an amount you do every day...it's sunk into my bones...
Hikari
Nope, food! I forgot about the chicken salad! Daily training and protein! Best match!
Xue
...No good, we're too different. Do you have to go that far just to dance...
Hikari
Huh? Xue, are you starting dance too? Oh, I get it! That's why you were asking all those questions...
Hikari
Could it be you got interested from that battle the other day!? I get it! Dancing is fun, right! Youth!
Xue
It's not like that! I'm-
Hikari
Taking on dance even though you're busy, Xue is so admirable!
Xue
Huh...?
Hikari
I can't do lots of different part time jobs like Xue. I just like moving my body, but I'm not that skilled at everything.
Hikari
So if it were a part time job battle instead of dance, Xue would win!
Xue
True...whether it's working the register, customer service, or making fried rice, I can't see a future where I'd lose...
Hikari
And delivery part time jobs too! I'd get lost and might eat the customer's food on the way.
Xue
...What the hell. There are more things I'm better at...!
Hikari
Yep yep. If you want a dance battle rematch, I'll take you on! Let's compete cutthroat in dance too!
Xue
Nah, I just need to win in overall ability! I quit dance! Strategic retreat is the key to victory!
Hikari
Whaaaat!?
Xue
...Alright, it's cooked. Dig in!
Hikari
Waaaah! A luxurious hot pot full of meat! Thanks for the meal!!!
Ramona
O-Oh my. Today's hot pot is even more than usual...
Lilja
So much...
Xue
How's my cooking...no. My cooking is good, right? In terms of skill, even World Dai Stars are no match, right?
Hikari
Ineffable satisfaction! Heaven...!
Xue
Heh heh heh...! Eat more and more. If you collapse from it being too delicious, I win!
Ramona
What on earth are you competing over...?
Lilja
The only thing certain is she's savouring the taste of victory.
Xue
Hmph, whatever anyone says, my victory is unshakable. I handle part time jobs and cook well, and my money saving skills are better than Hikari's too!
Hikari
Seconds!
Xue
You already ate that...? Germany and Finland barely touched their chopsticks!?
Hikari
It's delicious and Xue is happy, so I ended up eating too much. Ehehe...
Ramona
No one can match Hikari in appetite.
Lilja
Between someone who makes delicious food and someone who eats deliciously, which wins?
Xue
Grrr...
Hikari
Heh heh. I still have plenty of room in my stomach! I don't really get it, but let's battle!
Xue
I absolutely won't give up on anything but dance! I'll make you taste defeat!
