Great work on the concert, everyone! Our returning fans were rather particularly eye-catching today, weren’t they?

It’s easy to tell who often comes to see us from the stage, after all.

Raito Icon
Raito

Right? I’ve been thinking of switching things up during the performance to make it special for everyone who regularly comes all the way here to see us, but…

What do you all think?

Chihiro Icon

Chii agrees! I’ve actually been thinking about this sort of thing recently~! Just to keep things from being boring, so we suddenly pop off with surprises ‘n stuff—

Like, imagine doing a performance in rollerskates~?!

Wherever this idea came from could not be any clearer.

Remember when Tao and Kinyari were workin’ and spinnin’ round and round in Taroppu’s store? It was sooooo cutieful!

If I remember correctly, there were idols in the past that used rollerskates in their performances…

Kinari Icon
Kinari

An all boys idol group called “KAWORU Taishou”1 came up in my searches. They apparently took the world like a storm by using rollerskates in their performance.

Tao Icon
Tao

No but… Skating is already difficult on its own and all, but to do it while dancing on stage might be too hard to pull off, yeah?

Nayuki Icon
Nayuki

There are also risks of accidents such as falling off the stage, as an example. Unless you could masterfully use the skates, I prohibit you from performing in them.

Chihiro Icon
Chihiro

But, but, when they did the trial run, weren’t both of their moves pre~tty acrobatic?

Tao Icon
Tao

Kinari was holding two whole trenchcoats and dodging a real speedy Yowa-san back there.

Kinari Icon
Kinari

I could say the same for you, Tao.

Tao Icon
Tao

I mean, if someone like me can skate, then maybe Chihiro, who already has a foundation for dancing can do it effortlessly…?

Raito Icon
Raito

If that’s the case, then we’ll also do our best! Right, Kuguri?!

Kuguri Icon
Kuguri

Even if I don’t say anything, I’m sure you can already surmise that I’ll refuse. I won’t stop you all from doing this, though.

Nayuki Icon
Nayuki

…Doing so with only four people would make the formation seem unbalanced.

Chihiro Icon
Chihiro

Then what about doing part divisions? Starting with our experienced players, Tao and Kinyari!

Let me think… How about checking how much we can incorporate into our performance first? Is that alright with the two of you?

Kinari Icon
Kinari

Understood. Tao and I shall collaborate on this matter.

(No, wait, hold on a sec.)

(It’s impossible for us to perform after using skates for a little while at the diner, though?!)
