Rainbow「Revival/14」English Translation
(This is a translation of a story from Ansamburu Stars.)
- Rainbow
【Revival/14】
narration
- Well, she said that the costume is a prototype and if there are any problems, he will remake it. Also, the transfer student says he can make a few more outfits if you want.
jin
- No, I think this one dress is enough. The "Rain-bows" are a piddly unit. ......
chiaki
- If you have to change clothes many times before your image is solidified, you're less likely to leave a lasting impression on your customers.
chiaki
- Yeah. It would be a burden on the transfer student. We have to do a lot of other work as well as costumes, and this costume is so perfect that it would be perfectly fine to make this our official costume.
chiaki
- I agree~. But I think it needs to be tweaked. I've actually lost a bit of weight since I first enrolled.
tori
- If it's based on data from that time, there might be extra length here and there.
tori
- Mm? Is that so, Himeimiya? You are already very slender, but is there any part of you that can lose more weight?
chiaki
- Yeah. I thought it would be hard if I ate something sweet and got pimples, even though I burn a lot of calories in the lessons, so I stopped eating those things too!
tori
- Well, I lost weight because of it.
tori
- No, Himemiya, meat is power! Eat plenty of it and keep your strength up! Here, I'll give you the rest of my lunch♪
chiaki
- This one has eggplant in it that I just can't get myself to eat......!
chiaki
- Don't push leftovers! I'll be fine! I'm a fat person by nature, so I'm sure I'll be back to normal in no time!
tori
- Um, is the ...... costume basically OK?
jin
- I was a little nervous because the transfer student finished it before you guys could check the design.
jin
- Don't blame the transfer student. Rather, praise them for how fast they work.
hokuto
- Yeah. Good girl. Really, I'm amazed at how much you guys, and the transfer students, are growing up. It's great to be young, after all.
jin
- Anyway. Hidaka asked his father to prepare the songs and dances, so it looks like he will have no problem learning them by the day of the event.
jin
- If the costumes are OK, well, we will be able to perform live without any shortage on the day of the event. I'll still need to do some advance publicity and practice fan service on the day of the show, though.
jin
- Oh, by the way, the magazine from which we are planning this project also advertises and they are going to invite customers from outside the school to the LIVE, so we can expect to attract a good number of customers
jin
- Hmm. Does the fact that you get customers from outside the school make you an 'S1' in terms of rank in the Drifest?
hokuto
- No, not on that scale. I think it's treated as Drifest, but it's more like a special match outside the system.
jin
- Just a hunch, but I think we're going to see more of this kind of thing in the future.
jin
- I feel that the Drifest system is becoming much more out of step with the times, and I think the Drifest system itself will be transformed.
jin
- Oh, the chairman said something like that.
tori
- He rarely shows up at the student council office, but every time he does, he has a discussion with the vice president about such topics.
tori
- He's having a good time talking about it. ...... still can't get between those two for me.
tori
- Oh well. So, uh, anyway, it's going well? Do you feel like you just need to work on perfecting your performance now?
tori
- Yes, but we have created a bit of a problem. I was going to discuss that with you.
jin
- I don't know what it is, but ...... has a unit that wants to participate in that LIVE besides us.
jin
- Hmm? What's wrong with that?
hokuto
- It's not that I really want to do a solo show, and I think it would be more exciting if there were more performers.
hokuto
- Yeah! And the customers will come for that unit, and that's a good thing! We'll take anyone's challenge anytime......☆
chiaki
- How can you be so confident, when you don't have any achievements in "Rain-bows" yet…… Let's see, that's another weird story.
jin
- The unit in question, apparently, was formed by Kunugi Sensei.
jin
- They're all in perfect alignment, like they're copying us.
jin
- Kunugi Sensei? Why is that?
hokuto
- um....... I asked him about it, but he brushed me off. I'm not sure.
jin
- Looking at the face of the unit, did that guy want to join the saga project too?
jin
- Huhu. I will not allow only the Sagami sensei to stand out! I wonder if it's like that?
chiaki
- He doesn't have that kind of personality. ...... Anyway, well, I'm not sure why such a unit was formed, and it's kind of creepy, so I'm just saying I'll be on the lookout for one.
jin
- It doesn't sound like Kunugi Sensei, so it's possible that someone put him in a position to do something extra.
jin
- Who is ....... Who in the world? Surely there's a mysterious organization plotting to take over the world behind the saga project!?
chiaki
- No, no. It's such a stupid story. Even if you show it on a TV show nowadays, they'll beat you up for lying.
jin
- But well, I have a bad feeling about it. ...... I'll check with Kunugisensei and see what I can find out.
jin
- Well, that's the thing, we're going to perform in the same LIVE, so we need to fine-tune our performance to match theirs, don't we
jin
- They seem to want a live showdown, and if that's the case, we need to read the trend and plan for it.
jin
- In the case of live confrontations, it is good if you win, but if you lose, there is little to gain.
jin
- The saga project is about us. It would be disgraceful if we lost.
jin
- If that happens, we will have no use for them and the Kunugi senshi will become the center of the saga project. ......
jin
- Hmmm. Well, I don't want to be involved in this stupid story forever, so I don't mind.
tori
- That's frustrating. I hate losing.
tori
- Yeah. That goes for me, too. Of course I'm going to win.
hokuto
- Huhu. I'd like it best if we could get along and talk things out.
chiaki
- If it's necessary, we have no choice. ……it's shameful to fight and lose without any preparation.
chiaki
- I guess we should take all the steps we can to prepare for a confrontation. What exactly is the Kunugi Sensei unit like?
chiaki
- Hmmm. I don't have much information yet. It's a temporary unit that was suddenly formed the day before yesterday.
jin
- So far, they don't seem to be doing anything at all.
jin
- At one point, under the authority of the teacher, I was allowed to review the application to form a temporary unit, but I could only find out the name of the unit and its members.
jin
- That alone is meaningful information. If the members know each other, we can make some assumptions about their abilities, etc.
jin
- Yeah. Let's see, I'll start with the members. The leader is, of course, Kunugi-sensei.
jin
- This guy, unlike me, hasn't neglected to train since he retired, so I think he's a pretty formidable opponent.
jin
- If Sagami Sensei had done some voluntary training or something, it would have saved us a lot of trouble. ...... Well, I guess it would be weirder to have lessons or something after he retired.
tori
- Hmmm. Kunugi-sensei hasn't been retired that long, so I guess he's stuck in his old habits.
jin
- I sometimes forget that I used to be an idol.
jin
- Remember. The teacher may have forgotten, but the world hasn't forgotten at all.
