Cue!

Blue sky, white clouds...

Surfing on the azure sea...

That would feel so good.

I'd really love to go to some island in the south.

Like Okinawa?

Or Hawaii?

Sounds wonderful!

Hey, so is there any place you guys would like to visit?

I'd really love to go to New York.

I mean, you've gotta experience the heart of showbiz.

And you, Aya?

Well, foreign places sound nice, but I'd like to get to know Japan more.

An interesting viewpoint.

Maybe it's because I grew up in Tokyo,

but I always feel like I don't know Japan at all.

Uh-huh.

And what about you, Miharu?

Me?

Well, I'd like to go to... Europe.

Where in Europe?

I think maybe Vienna.

I guess that's to be expected from a music grad student.

It is the music capital.

So that's the city of your dreams?

There's that, but there's also a wonderful piano teacher in Vienna.

So there's a teacher you'd like to learn from.

Yes. But all of us going together sounds like it would be fun, too.

Hmm... Vienna, huh?

Me next, me next!

The place I want to go to is...

the moon!

What happened to the island in the south?!

Boken Survivors!

Thank you for always tuning in!

I'm Ha-rumi, the priest.

I hope you're all doing well!

I'm Mahou, the mage.

And I'm Rikkoru, the merchant!

It's business again today, as usual!

And I'm A-ya, the hero.

We'll be heading out on another adventure today... Or maybe not?

Good morning, good day, good evening!

To celebrate our show surpassing a million views,

we'll be doing a special live broadcast!

So that means the adventure is on hold!

We'll be switching over to our special talk show.

It's not like we ever do any actual adventuring anyway.

Don't say that.

We're going to go on an adventure today, as well!

C'mon, we're starting!

Let's go!

Let's see.

What's our goal for today?

Let's go to the tavern and get a mission.

The tavern?

Oh, maybe I'll have some wine.

We're not going for a drink.

She's right.

Looks like last night's broadcast got high ratings again.

Yeah, and it got a ton of comments, too!

Take a look.

It looks like the 3D animation, brought to life with motion capture,

paired with the girls' real time voice acting is a winning combination.

I was a bit worried if it would work out because it's such an unusual project.

It looks like people are loving that it's ad-libbed and not scripted,

so you never know what might happen.

I see.

The radio show training them to talk so freely is certainly helping.

Stop!

Okay, stop right there.

You're all over the place.

The four of you in Chun×4 are the vanguard for Project Himmel.

In the upcoming live shows, we'll need you to be the anchor.

But with your movements all over the place, nobody will be able to follow you.

Especially you, Tendo-san.

I'm sorry!

Your movements have been sloppy ever since this lesson started.

Did you get a proper night's sleep?

Of course!

I went to bed properly, woke up properly, ate properly...

Okay, that's good.

Then are you all ready?

Focus, focus!

Once more, from the top.

Ponypony Music contacted us yesterday.

It's official now that we're going to have a joint live show for Project Himmel.

The eight of you will also be participating in this live show.

I'll be sending you your exact lesson schedules later,

so make sure to check your email.

Y-Yes, ma'am!

And we just received word of this,

but it looks like Boken Survivors is doing quite well,

so they decided to continue producing more episodes.

Yay!

That was decided quickly.

I wonder what our next adventure will be.

Were those adventures?

Maybe?

Congratulations, you guys!

That's amazing.

Thanks!

But that means we'll be doing both the live show and the anime in parallel?

Oh, yeah, I guess so.

It's important to do each job properly.

But this chance is also important.

For us, it's going to be at the same time as Bloom Ball, as well.

Yeah. We shouldn't prioritize either job.

They're both important jobs.

It's stressful when you don't have work,

but getting more work is stressful, too.

Not me. I'm totally fine.

Are you sure?

Of course!

This is nothing but fun for me.

You need courage to take the first step.

Huh?

What was that, Miharu?

Well, I was thinking that by taking that first step,

maybe you start seeing new sights.

Oh, you mean the job thing we were talking about earlier?

That just makes me want to do all kinds of work

so that I can see all sorts of different sights.

Me, too. I don't have a lot of self-confidence, though.

Anyway, shall we go to our next segment?

Huh? What?!

A piano exchange program?

Where on earth are you going for that?

To Austria, in Europe.

An exchange program in Europe?!

Why does it have to be now?!

You're shouting, Rio.

An exchange program?

That's right.

Apparently, someone who had already been accepted suddenly canceled,

so the teacher asked me if I was interested.

So this means you'd like to request that time off?

That's right.

I'm sorry it's so sudden.

N-Now, hang on a second, Miharu-chan!

If you take off time, it means you won't be able to work.

Yes.

But that means the work you have now...

Rio.

Masaki-san, this is about her future as a voice actress.

She's an adult.

She came to this decision after thinking it through.

Right...

What? Miharu's going away on a piano exchange program?

Who told you that?

I was walking by the CEO's office earlier, and I heard them talking.

You were eavesdropping?

No. I just happened to hear the voices coming from the other side of the door.

I felt bad, so I left right away.

Could you have misheard?

I don't... think so.

Where is she going?

I don't know.

Probably Vienna.

Oh, the music capital!

She did say there was a teacher she wanted to learn from.

I wonder how long she'll be gone.

I don't know, but aren't exchange programs usually, like, a year?

It could be even longer.

No, I don't want that!

This is Miharu's decision, though.

But it was just decided that Boken Survivors will continue.

And there's the Project Himmel live show.

I don't want her to go.

Aya...

I can't imagine our team without Miharu.

You're being childish again.

So both of you are fine with it, then?

Will you be able to go on when Miharu's gone?

What she said got us to start our radio show in the first place.

Now that I think about it, when I rushed out to meet Masapi-san...

Miharu was the only one who said that it sounded like fun.

That's right.

And that other time, too.

Even though I said we'd done enough,

she ended up digging with me until we found the capsule.

That's right.

It might be difficult to know what she's thinking at times...
