Chizuru; Yanagi--

Jin; It’s fine.

Yanagi; Hahaha, ha… You and Minato can make girls happy too, though?


Jin; ………

Jin; ...If you don’t intend to contribute to the recovery from this incident, at least look for a successor for H3. That’s the responsibility of the one who’s leaving their role, no?

Yanagi; Responsibility…

Jin; We need to end this chaos and restore peace to the school. Cooperate, okay?

A pressure I couldn’t say no to. That was exactly the same as when I was in black dorm. It’s funny, he’s so compelling it makes his opponent feel secure. Saying he’s giving me a chance to fulfill my responsibility, it seems he’s already decided that this is what’s going to happen.

Yanagi; ...I understand. Although I don’t think I’m qualified for recruiting.

Jin; Excellent. I’ll prepare an opportunity for you to search for a successor. This is a critical project to save not only the female students of Shinonome Gakuen, but the entire country!

--17:15. “Shinonome-based humanity sustainment plan” commences.

After Yanagi left the room, another took his place. Heaven’s flower garden, “Sucré Nuage”, Minato appeared. Chizuru showed him in, bowed and left the room.

Jin; What do you think of the current circumstances?


Minato; Mm~ I don’t really understand hard stuff, but… I’ll be lonely if I can’t hang out with Yanagi anymore. I can still hang out with girls, but I think it’s more fun when Yanagi’s there too.

Jin; Do you want Hanabusa to return to H3?

Minato; Hmm. If Yanagi doesn’t want to come back, there’s nothing we can do. If Yanagi found something else he thinks is fun, that’s what's most important~


Jin; Fu… I see. That’s fine, then. Aside from forcing him to come back, all we can do now is quickly look for a successor to sustain the peace. Ushiwaka, as a member of H3, I’d like to request your cooperation as well.


Minato; If that’ll make Yanagi happy, I’ll help out~
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
The next morning--

It’s unbelievable, but I’m running without anyone chasing me.

Touji; Hanabusa-senpai! You’re lagging behind! Come on, one, two! One, two!


Yanagi; Haa… haa… Wow, you’re really fast, Touji.

Touji; I train my strength and endurance daily. If you continue to run early in the morning every day, without losing your focus, you too could achieve this much before breakfast, Hanabusa-senpai!

Yanagi; Next up is meditation, then… push ups and sit ups, right? It’s probably going to be a lot slower with me here. Is that okay?

Touji; I usually complete this routine in 1 hour and 25 minutes, but…


Touji; An opportunity to train with Hanabusa-senpai is precious indeed. I will be content whether we are on schedule or not!

Yanagi; Thanks. I’ll do my best to catch up with you someday soon.

Touji; Haha, that’s the spirit, Hanabusa-senpai! Now, let’s give the last lap our all! One two, one two!
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Second year classroom

Yanagi; yawn

Shinya; Ahaha, that was a big yawn. You look tired. Did you get enough sleep?

Yanagi; I got up early to work out today. I’ll probably go to bed early tonight, too. After school, I have to spread fertilizer for the gardening club, though.

Mikage; You’re maturing~ (What Mikage says here can either mean that a person is maturing, or that a flower is withering/dying.)

Shinya; Ehh, the club’s flowers are withering!? Yanagi-kun, let me spread some fertilizer too!

None of the flowers in the greenhouse were dying, though. But as I started to tell Shinya that, everyone’s phones started ringing. It sounded like a notification sound.

Shinya; Eh!? An invitation to “H3’s final breakup event… slash… new H3 candidate selection and cultivation tour”...?

Minato; Oh, this is what Jin-san was talking about the other day~ Yay, exciting~


Yanagi; (I see… Looks like Jin-senpai’s already started moving…)

A cellphone’s ringtone is echoing in our room.

Yuma; ...Senpai, your phone’s ringing.

Yanagi; Yeah, it’s ringing, huh?

Yuma; You’re not answering?

Yanagi; ………


Yanagi; I already quit that.

Yuma; Yanagi-senpai… You’re serious, aren’t you.

Yuma; ...If there’s anything I can do to help you, please tell me.

Yanagi; Haha. Thanks.


Yuma; Ah, do you want a red viper drink?

Yanagi; That's okay. It’s not like I’ve lost my physical strength.

My ringtone, which had been playing on and off for the last ten hours or so, finally stopped. My phone probably died. The person I hold dearest might try to contact me, so I can’t leave it like that. I plugged it in, and my eyes fell on Yuma’s bookshelf.

Yanagi; ...Hey, you like SPICY☆LOVER too, Yuma?

Yuma; Eh? Y-yes.

SPICY☆LOVER. It’s a shoujo manga featuring anthropomorphizations of spices, popular among middle school students.

Yanagi; I just discovered it recently, but it’s quite popular right now, isn’t it? There’s a collab cafe where you can eat the protagonist Karina’s curry, and employees dressed as the characters say “smell my scent” while adding seasoning to you food. It's such a hit you have to line up for five hours.

Yuma; Yes. Because of that-- ah, no. Certainly, the many different ikemen characters surrounding Karina, battling with scents, have been very well-received.

Yanagi; Yeah. But, the one they just introduced, uh… Cumin? The flashy character.

Yuma; Ah, yes. He uses specific spices in the rice shower to stop his lover from having a change of heart. And he’s a painter, right?

Yanagi; A girl I know really doesn't like Cumin.

Yuma; Eh?

Yanagi; “Even though he doesn’t have feelings for them, he toys with however many girls’ feelings he wants for his own enjoyment!” is what she said.


But there's one aspect of Cumin’s character I can't relate to. I wasn't able to protect myself.

Yuma; That’s… yeah. I think she’s right.

Yanagi; It’s a pretty strong criticism.

Yuma; If there’s more you’re not saying, feel free to tell me.

Yanagi; Haha. If I kept going, you’d die from the shock.

Yuma; ?

Yanagi; ...It’s nothing.

Yanagi; (It doesn’t have anything to do with me anymore.)
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆


Mamoru; Everyone at Shinonome Gakuen, good morning! This is Hodo Mamoru of the press club, bringing you an emergency report on the mystery incident that’s sweeping the school!

Female student A; Skin… drying out…

Female student B; Uu… water… water…

Mamoru; You may have understood from that footage; currently, the female students of Shinonome Gakuen are suffering from a “skin desertification phenomenon”, the cause of which is unknown. The number of affected students is increasing rapidly!

Mamoru; Excuse me, could I ask you for a comment!

Female student A; Round… eggplant… looks delicious…

Female student C; Uu~.... uu~....


Mamoru; R-round eggplant? A-as we’ve just seen, hallucinations that every male student of Shinonome is a vegetable are also spreading! The school is in chaos!


Senri; Yuni-tan, listen to this~! When we were in the hallway, a girl told the lion that he looks like he’s “half cabbage, half purple cabbage”! That’s awesome!

Takaomi; Shut up. Didn’t she call you a carrot?

Touji; What a coincidence. Mere moments ago, I was called an “expensive-looking cob of corn”. To notice my polished hairstyle, she knows where to focus her eyes.

Yuni; You all look delicious!

Scene; Yanagi & Yuma’s room

Yuma; Eh, what’s that roll of bills? It’s more like a mountain. A mountain of bills... Money, mountain…

Yanagi; Yuma, calm down.

Minato; I can get married with this~

Yuma; Married?

Minato; Yuuma, have you ever proposed?

Yuma; No, I haven’t.

Minato; I see. Nobody has. Hm~

Yuma; Yanagi-senpai… What’s going on?


Yanagi; He’s going to get married.

Yuma; To who…?


Minato; To Shion-chan!

Yuma; Eh.


Yanagi; You are…?

Minato; Yeah. I’m going to try asking. With a cool proposal.

Yanagi; Ah, I see… But, why Shion?

Minato; Because Shion-chan’s the most like her.

Yuma; Like who?

Yanagi; ...Like your fiancée?


Minato; Ufufu.

Scene; Hallway

Minato; Knock knock kno~ck.

I knocked on Shion-chan’s door. Right now, Shion-chan’s probably in the middle of a skincare routine or exercising- but just then, the door opened.

Shion; --

Minato; He~y, Shion-chan. Um, there’s something I wanted to ask-

Shion-chan turned away in a huff and started closing the door. But, panicking, I caught it.

Minato; Why are you closing it?

Shion; ...Let go.

Shion-chan was pushing hard on the door to close it. So I pushed back, not wanting to lose.


Minato; Shion-chan, I need to ask you something. Um-

Shion; Let go.

Touji; (Umu, my stomach is full. There’s nothing like ingesting protein in the morning-- Hm? In front of my room…)


Minato; --on-chan, please! I want you to marry me!

Touji; Fwaaah!?!?

Shion; Stop messing-

Touji; Y-y-y-y-y-y-you can’t get married!!!!

Shion; Ah…

Minato; Touji’s saying it too. Marriage~


Touji; NOOOOOOOOOOOO! I will! Never!! ALLOW THIS!!!

Minato; That’s not good. I mean, I already proposed to Shion-chan-

Shion; Haa…

The door closed, and Shion-chan disappeared.

Minato; No, no, don’t go! Meme!


Touji; ! ...Meme?

Minato; Arrière-grand-mère…

Touji; That’s… French.

Chizuru; He’s talking about his great grandmother.

Touji; Maki-senpai…?


Minato; sniffle

Scene; Gym, after the concert

Senri; Ushiwaka-senpaaaaaai! I’m so sorrrrrrrry!

Takaomi; ……Sorry. You were listening that time, weren’t you.


Minato; It’s okay~

Senri; Really? You’re not mad anymore?

Minato; No. I’m not mad.

Senri; As expected of a member of H3… He’s even an ikemen in his heart…!

Shigure; If the apologies are finished, I’d like to extend my thanks next. Ushiwaka, you really saved us today.

Touji; The tambourine at the end also echoed throughout the galaxy! The echo through Nito-kun’s microphone left a lasting impression; it was so amazing!

Senri; All the attendees were reeeeeeally into it too!


Takaomi; ...If the tambourine generates that much enthusiasm, I guess it’s not too bad.

Shigure; We’re going to celebrate the performance now. You’ll be joining us, won’t you?

Minato; Yeah. Thanks everyone.
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Hallway

Mikage; Ah, welcome back.

Minato; Mikage…? What are you doing by my door?

Mikage; You dropped this in the gym, and a struggle broke out over it among the girls.

Minato; Ah, my disguise…

Mikage; Are you still going to use it?


Minato; ...No, it’s okay.

Mikage; I thought so. Your face is your talent.


Minato; My talent… --That’s right. I had something I was able to do, too.
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Light music clubroom

Minato; So, although it wasn’t for very long, thank you for taking care of me-

Senri; Ushiwaka-senpai… Are you really quitting the light music club?

Minato; Yeah, I quit.

Because I understood something at the concert the other day.

Minato; (I don’t want my face to get fans excited, I want it to be the music performed by everyone in the light music club. So for everyone’s sake--)


Minato; (Because the light music club’s music is really amazing. They sparkle together.)

Touji; I thought I’d finally found a disguised brother-in-arms… It’s too bad.

Shigure; Please come hang out with us sometime. Just like watching the clouds, you can come here to listen to us play.

Takaomi; As long as you don’t get in the way.


Minato; Thanks, ehehe. I found one more fun thing to do ♪
☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆
Scene; Minato & Kasuka’s bathroom

Minato; Hmhmh~mHow many~ nights and~ ♪ how many~ ♪ ¹

Kasuka; ...What are you doing.

Minato; Ah, morning Kasuka~ Um, I thought I’d clean the mirror I painted black.

Kasuka; That’s fine, but please stop singing weird songs to yourself so early in the morning on a day off.

Minato; Eh~ isn’t it cool? It’s the song the light music club performed~ ♪ How many~

Kasuka; (...Just when I think he’s finally settled down, it’s like he comes back to life again.

Minato; --There, sparkling clean.

My own face was clearly reflected back at me. My talent. I don’t dislike this face anymore.


Minato; Maybe I’ll go look at the clouds in the courtyard.

-STORY CLEAR-

Female student D; I was thinking the same thing. Without Minato-kun here, I just feel kind of tired.

Female student E; I was at their last concert, so I was looking forward to this one whether Ushiwaka-senpai was here or not… what a shame.

Senri; (Aaaah… Aah no way, so many people are leaving…! But I don't know if I can stall anymore…!?!?)

Minato; (--What I'm capable of…)

I had an idea, drifting through my head.

Minato; (But I don't want to get in everyone's way again… But, but, if I don't do something, everyone will-!)

[Mikage; Why don’t you just do what you think you can? Without thinking too deeply.]

Minato; (--!)

Minato runs onstage

Takaomi, Senri & Touji; !?

Shigure; Ushiwaka…

Before I realized it, I was up onstage, face still covered. My body was moving freely--


Senri; (That’s!? The “prayer dance” I did in front of Senpai’s room…)

Female student A; Eh…? Wh-what’s that person doing…

Female student B; They came out all of a sudden and started dancing….

Minato; (This turned into quite the scene… But, for everyone’s sake, I will--)

I want to do something. As that feeling grew, I raised my tambourine and hit it harder-- and then.


Minato; --Ah.

The paper bag covering my face gently floated to the floor.

Female student A; No way! Minato-senpai!!

Female student B; Oh my god, he’s so hot~!!!

My face… has been exposed. But now I can see everyone’s smiles.

Minato; (So many people. So many voices. I’m getting used to being in the spotlight. What I can do now--)


The sound of the tambourine echoes. I’m moving my body “like I think I can”.

Senri; Ushiwaka-senpai…

Takaomi & Touji; ………

Female student A; Haa… Nice. Graceful limbs… A beautiful face and beautiful expressions… I’m being charmed by Minato-senpai…

Female student B; Minato-kun’s dancing reminds me of a contemporary dance I saw with Father in LA the other day.

Female student C; Even though the concert hasn’t started, we’re being treated to a performance.

Mamoru; (The equipment is fixed! You can start playing whenever you’re ready!)

Minato; (I’m glad I could make everyone excited again~ Oh, it looks like Shigure’s trying to say something?)

Shigure; (You saved us, Ushiwaka.)

Minato; !

Shigure; (We’re going to start the concert. ...Can I ask you to accompany us on the tambourine?)


Minato; --Yeah!


Mikage; C’mon, we're waiting ♪
