== Shrine - Kagura hall ==

Ako : Onee-chan, I'll put the mallet in here, okay--?
Tomoe : Aaaa, Thank you Ako!
Ran : I did say that I'm going to help, but I didn't know that it will be this early in the morning...
Tomoe : I'm sorry about this Ran. Don't worry, I'll treat you to something later!
Ako : You're amazing Onee-chan, This is the place where you're going to play the Taiko later, right? A lot of visitor will definitely come and see it.
Ran : How is your year-end practice, did it pay off?
Tomoe : Yes. Those three have become better at a short period of time. You will definitely be surprised when you see their performance, Ran.
Ran : Those three, You mean, Kasumi, Kokoro, and Okusawa-san, right.
Ako : Yes, they also do a Taiko performance before this.
Tomoe : Well, putting that aside, since we have finished the preparation, how about we take it slowly from here. It'll be bad if we get too tired before the performance start.
Ako : Okayy--! But, if you need anything else, please tell Ako! Ako will do her best to help you!
Tomoe : Haha, Thank you Ako. I'll rely on you if something happens.
Sayo : Everyone, Happy new year.
Tomoe : Sayo-san! ... Arisa and Kanon-san too?
Kanon : Happy new year. The performance is going to start soon, isn't it.
Arisa : Ughh~, It's freezing--... The shrine is at is coldest at this time of year.
Ako : Why is everyone here this early? The Taiko performance hasn't started you know?
Arisa : Well--, I just want to check on Kasumi...
Kanon : Me too, I'm worried about Kokoro-chan and Misaki-chan.
Kokoro : Ara, Kanon! And also everyone!
Misaki : Kanon-san, thank you for coming here this early in the morning.
Kokoro : That's right! Since everyone has come this early, how about I show you my performance once!
Misaki : Save it for later, okay.
Kanon : Ahaha... Both of you, if you need any help with something, please tell me okay.
Ran : Rather than the other two, I'm more worried that Kokoro is going to do something weird.
Arisa : Haha... I know your feeling.
Sayo : It seems that you have finished with the preparation. Maybe we should come more early after all.
Tomoe : Ahaha, You don't need to worry about that Sayo-san. Thank you. I'm happy just by you coming here today.
Kasumi : A~~ri~~sa~~!! You come~~~!!
Arisa : Uwaa! Oy, Kasumi, don't hug me!
Kasumi : But I'm happy that you come~! Look forward to my performance, okay!
Arisa : Okay, okay, I know. Do it seriously, okay, the other will also come later.
Kasumi : Yes!
Ran : Come to think, Moca and the other also said that they are going to come here later. Is Hello Happy will be coming too?
Kanon : Yes, Two of our band member is going to appear in the performance after all. So, of course, we'll come and see it.
Tomoe : Ooo~, There will be that many people coming here!? That's mean we can't mess this up!
Kokoro :  Don't worry, Tomoe! We have practice a lot after all! We're definitely going to make everyone smile!
Tomoe : Right! You said something good, Kokoro~!
Ako : Fufu, I wonder what kind of performance will it be? I can't wait to see it~!
Misaki : Kanon-san... Can I appear as Michelle this time?
Kanon : Eh! Of course not~. Today is not Hello happy's performance after all...
Misaki :  I know right~. It's just that I feel restless when I'm thinking that this time I'll do a performance with my flesh and body.
Kanon : Flesh and body. Misaki-chan...
Tomoe : Ah, That's right. Since we have finished the preparation. How about everyone takes a look at the stalls now?
Arisa : Come to think of it, there are quite a few stalls this time.
Ran : Then, how about we do a shrine visit too?
Ako : Agreed! Let's do that!
Sayo : Tomoe-san, I'm looking forward to your performance.
Tomoe : Leave it to me! I'm going to show you a splendid banquet!
Ran : I don't understand what you say...
Ako : Then, do your best everyone! Let's go!
