Ramona
Abby, your back is getting rounded again? You should pay more attention to your posture on stage.
Abigail
Hey.
Ramona
Look, like this! You're tall and stand out, so make the most of it.
Abigail
Wait, Mona! Don't suddenly grab my shoulders like that.
Ramona
Haha. Remember this and stand straight during rehearsal, okay?
Claire
Ramona-san, you're really such a frank person...
Abigail
Seriously. I've never met anyone like her since joining Gingaza...
Ramona
Claire, don't you need to go to the archive room? You want to prepare for the next audition, right?
Claire
Oh, that's right. I need to watch the video of the previous performance and study.
Abigail
The next one is "the second," right? Well, I don't think you need to worry. You can't really judge someone's ability after just two performances.
Ramona
I hope you get a good role. I'm rooting for you.
Xue
Even though we're done for today...
Xue
That Germany is coaching others again without permission. Does she think she's a director?
Hikari
She really is. She seems more like a teacher than a director!
Xue
Hmph, acting like she's a senpai. If she neglects herself and gets kicked out, it's her own fault.
Koyomi
...
Koyomi
...In the current situation, is there any possibility she would leave due to lack of skill?
Xue
She seems to think so.
Lilja
Ramo has been standing out lately.
Koyomi
L-Lilja-san. Please don't suddenly appear behind me.
Lilja
Is Koyomi interested in Ramo too?
Koyomi
...Wouldn't anyone be interested?
Koyomi
There aren't many people in Gingaza who act like coaches when we already have first class instructors.
Lilja
Yes. Koyomi always stares at Ramo when she's doing that.
Koyomi
That's not...
Lilja
There's also a way to steal everyone's attention through kindness. If I coached rehearsals like that, would people look at me more?
Xue
It would be impossible for you to be like her...first of all, you wouldn't give any decent advice.
Lilja
That's not true. I taught Kamira many things recently, like posing.
Xue
Posing...?
Hikari
But really, since Ramona-san came, the atmosphere at Gingaza has improved. Ehehe, it feels more comfortable than before.
Koyomi
...Is that so? I'm glad you can relax.
Koyomi
However, don't let your guard down too much. Don't forget that you belong to Gingaza.
Hikari
Y-Yes!
Koyomi
Rehearsal is over, so I'm going home. Good work today.
Xue
...Your face is too relaxed, idiot.
Hikari
Was I that relaxed?
Xue
Koyomi-san has a point. Having one person like Germany who distracts others is more than enough.
Xue
Let's go back to our room. I also have homework to do before bed.
Xue
Haah, school is such a drag...
Hikari
...
Abigail
Thank you, senpai~. I'll consult with you again if anything comes up.
Claire
Please continue to help us.
Ramona
Yes, see you tomorrow. Come anytime.
Hikari
Ramo-san! Shall we go back to our room together?
Ramona
Sure. Were you waiting for me?
Hikari
No! It's just a coincidence. Those new members have been hanging out together a lot lately, huh?
Ramona
Yes.
Ramona
...You see, competition is fierce at Gingaza, right? I've noticed that newcomers especially have a hard time. There's also that "second time" jinx.
Hikari
Ah, that's true.
Ramona
I had a close friend who quit the troupe. It made me wonder if there was anything I could do...
Hikari
So that's why you're reaching out to the newcomers. Ramo-san, you're such a good person!
Ramona
Hahaha. Koyomi would scold me for being too soft...
Hikari
Koyomi-san might say that, but I find it helpful. Gingaza used to be so tense in the past, but lately it feels more relaxing.
Hikari
I feel at ease when I'm with Ramo-san. I like Gingaza with Ramo-san in it! So I understand why those kids want to rely on you~.
Ramona
Hikari...
Ramona
I see. I'm happy to hear you say that. Creating an environment where everyone can improve together-that's my goal!
Hikari
A goal, that's great! I'll support you with all my might!
Hikari
Hooray! Hooray! Ramo-san!
Ramona
Oh, is that the representative Japanese...?
Hikari
Yes, it's a cheer for Ramo-san! I'm the head of Ramo-san's cheer squad!
Ramona
Hahaha, such strong support makes me feel embarrassed.
Ramona
But watch me. I will surely make Gingaza a better place.
