Sunset Beach Park! (Part 1)

Iroha
Hmm...

Mito
Hmm...

Iroha
Just like in spring, cosplay.

Mito
"There's also Comic Fest. If we're talking about what's most summer-like...wouldn't that be the most fitting?"

Iroha
I agree. As a seasonal tradition, for social media appeal, and for versatility. Cosplay has top class potential.

Mito
"When people think of Iroha-chan, they think of cosplay. When they think of cosplay, they think of Iroha-chan...that's the image."

Mito
"In the spring appeal championship, you received the 'As Expected, Cosplay' award, right? So I think it's fine."

Iroha
Yes. There should be no hesitation...but if I think of this as a competition, I want to compete with a concept that can ambitiously aim for the top...

Mito
"If we're talking about what was popular in spring...it was Kamira-chan and Tsubomi-san's karaoke, wasn't it?"

Iroha
To overlook something so classic among classics-how careless of us all!

Mito
"We also wanted to sing, so we ended up going to karaoke. That impromptu karaoke contest, it was fun..."

Iroha
It was fun to learn about everyone's unknown feelings about spring, and I understand why it became the most popular.

Iroha
Ah, so if I cosplay and sing karaoke...?

Mito
"Hmm, we just didn't do it in spring, but it's ordinary if you call it ordinary...isn't it?"

Iroha
I suppose so.

Mito
"Ah...what if we did a special feature on classic anime songs where summer is the setting? Like 'When the Cicada Bomb Explodes'..."

Iroha
Indeed, there are many masterpieces like "Artemis' Joy" and "Earth." It might work.

Mito
"Right, right. Like a live concert...or a conceptual album, or creating a setlist with high narrative quality like a playlist."

Iroha
If we can stir otaku hearts through context, we can aim for a high score. No one went that far at the spring event!

Mito
"We can also include exciting songs like 'Summer Vacation' in between."

Iroha
And then make people cry with melancholic songs that remind them of late summer...

Iroha
...Mmm, although it seems good, it's still a second hand idea.

Mito
"It's more of an arrangement. It doesn't feel like a new idea...right?"

Iroha
It's not just simple reuse, but the impact will inevitably be weaker.

Mito
"Yeah. Karaoke would be popular. If possible, I'd like to do something that will surprise everyone...but."

Iroha
The problem is that such ideas don't just float into my mind.

Iroha
...It seems Mito-chan can't think of anything either. Should we settle for cosplay as the standard but reliable option?

Mito
"...That's it. Why don't we ask other people for their opinions?"

Iroha
By other people, you mean?

Mito
"Um...you know, the other day...Panda-chan and swimsuits...you said you went shopping, right?"

Iroha
Yes. When I went shopping for swimsuits with Kamira-chan, we invited Panda-chan who was struggling with her stream.

Iroha
It was really disappointing that Mito-chan couldn't come that day. Why do appointments always overlap...?

Mito
"It can't be helped. Wait, we're getting off topic."

Mito
"Panda-chan knows a lot about streaming and such. Maybe she has some good ideas?"

Iroha
I see...I'll ask her!

Panda
Hm? A message? Who is it...Iroha-san!?

Panda
(What could it be at this hour? Is it related to our shopping trip the other day?)

Iroha
"Excuse me for messaging so late at night. Actually-"

Panda
(I-I see. So she wants an idea that will surprise everyone at Denki...)

Panda
(What an unreasonable request...as expected of Denki...!)

Panda
(If I had such ideas, I would have already done them myself...I was doing idea solicitation streams because I don't have any...)

Panda
(-But there's no point saying that! I've already read the message!)

Panda
(Even if Panda can't do it, maybe there are concepts that Iroha-san and the others could pull off.)

Panda
(Speaking of Iroha-san and Mito-san, they're among the top popular members in the Denki fan club. And there's a rumor that Iroha-san has some intensely dedicated fans...)

Panda
(Even if I can't come up with good ideas, I might gain something from this too, so it would be a waste to miss this opportunity!)

Panda
Let's see..."I can't think of anything right away, but I'd like to consider it. Also, if possible, I'd like to meet at a café to discuss-"

Iroha
"Yes, please!!!!!!!"

Panda
...Instant reply! This casual feeling is very Denki-like too.

Panda
Alright, let me look for something suitable for Denki from my unused idea notebook!
